15. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NEITHER PARTY WILL BE LIABLE TO THE OTHER FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, USE, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE, EVEN IF THE PARTY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

17. Governing law and jurisdiction
These Terms are governed by the laws of India, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The courts of Bengaluru, Karnataka have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Service, save that we may bring proceedings to enforce our intellectual-property rights in any court of competent jurisdiction.
If you are a consumer ordinarily resident in the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction whose mandatory consumer-protection laws apply notwithstanding the foregoing, nothing in this Section deprives you of the protection of those laws or of the right to bring proceedings in your country of residence to the extent required by applicable law. Consumers in the European Union may also use the European Commission’s Online Dispute Resolution platform at ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr.
18. Force majeure
