9. Governing law and dispute resolution

9.1 Governing law

These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them, their subject matter, or their formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the internal laws of the Republic of Moldova, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule that would cause the application of the laws of any jurisdiction other than the Republic of Moldova.

9.2 Amicable resolution

The parties agree to first attempt to resolve any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms amicably through good faith negotiations. Either party may initiate such negotiations by sending written notice to the other party, outlining the nature of the dispute. The parties shall dedicate a period of at least thirty (30) calendar days following the date of such notice to negotiate a resolution, unless they mutually agree in writing to extend this period.

9.3 Judicial forum

If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute through amicable negotiations within the period specified in Section 9.2, then the parties irrevocably agree that the competent courts of the Republic of Moldova shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim that arises out of or in connection with these Terms, their subject matter, or their formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims). Each party irrevocably submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of such courts for these purposes.
