The Terms and the relationship between each user and Skincarenz shall be governed by the laws of New Zealand without regard to its conflict of law provisions and the parties agree that the venue for any dispute arising hereunder shall be the courts located in Nelson, New Zealand. If any provision of the Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of the Terms remain in full force and effect. Skincarenz reserves the right to share or transfer personally identifiable information and aggregate information to a third party should Skincarenz ever file for bankruptcy or in the event of a sale, merger or acquisition of Skincarenz.
