10. Governing Law, Venue and Dispute Resolution
The laws of the state of California, U.S.A., excluding its conflicts-of-law rules, govern this Agreement and your use of the RingCentral Services. You agree that any disputes between you and RingCentral shall be adjudicated in the state and federal courts of the State of California, U.S.A. Venue for all claims and disputes between you and RingCentral shall be the county of San Mateo, State of California. You hereby consent to venue and personal jurisdiction in such courts with respect to such claims or disputes and irrevocably waive any right that such party may have to assert that such forum is not convenient or that any such court lacks jurisdiction. Some jurisdictions do not allow governing law provisions, so certain of the foregoing governing law provisions may not apply to you.
Notwithstanding the adjudication requirement above, for any dispute involving $10,000 or less, the party requesting relief may choose to resolve the dispute through binding, non-appearance-based arbitration (i.e., arbitration conducted online, through written filings, and/or via teleconference). Such arbitration shall be conducted through an established alternative dispute resolution service mutually agreed on by the parties, and any judgment rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. Some jurisdictions do not allow arbitration provisions, so certain of the foregoing arbitration provisions may not apply to you.

If any portion of these terms and conditions is determined to be unenforceable under applicable law, that portion shall be construed as nearly as possible to reflect the original intentions of the parties. All remaining terms set forth herein shall continue to have full force and effect.
