Governing Law: The Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to this agreement and govern all questions of whether a dispute is subject to arbitration.
17.3 Class Action Waiver
YOU AND TAILORED TALES AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, REPRESENTATIVE, OR COLLECTIVE PROCEEDING.

18. Governing Law & Venue
Governing Law: These Terms and any disputes arising out of or relating to the Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule.
