Note to International Users
The Services are hosted in highly secure, fully redundant data centers owned and operated by our cloud computing services provider. If you are a user accessing the Services from the United States, the Services are hosted in one of our provider’s data centers in the United States. If you are a user accessing the Services outside the United States, the Services are hosted in our provider’s data center that is closest to your location, which may or may not be in the United States. If you are accessing the Services from any region with laws or regulations governing personal data collection, use, and disclosure, that differ from United States laws, please be advised that through your continued use of the Services, which are governed by U.S. law, you may be transferring your personal information to the United States or any other country where our provider’s data centers are located and you consent to that transfer. You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. government as a “terrorist supporting” country and that you are not listed on any U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
Disputes
