16. GOVERNING LAW AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION

These Terms of Use and your use of the Site are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of The Netherlands. However, this does not affect any mandatory applicable consumer rights you may have under the laws of your country of residence.

 

You may bring any dispute which may arise under these Terms to either the competent court of Amsterdam, the Netherlands, or to the competent court of your country of habitual residence. Brand Access shall bring any dispute which may arise under these Terms to the competent court of your country of habitual residence if this is in an EU Member State or you live in the UK or otherwise the competent court of Amsterdam, the Netherlands.
In the event of a dispute between you and Brand Access, we encourage you to contact us directly. If we are unable to resolve the dispute through direct communication, you may have the option to utilize the Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform provided by the European Commission where you are resident in an EU Member State. The ODR platform is designed to facilitate the resolution of disputes arising from online transactions without the need for court intervention. You can access the ODR platform here. We are neither willing nor obliged to participate in a dispute resolution procedure before a consumer arbitration board. For residents in the UK, we are not obliged to use an Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) provider and, as we receive few complaints that are not resolved, we have decided not to subscribe to an ADR scheme at this stage.
