16. Termination
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the platform at any time, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms & Conditions or any applicable law. Termination does not affect any rights or obligations that arose prior to termination.
17. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms & Conditions are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Republic of Singapore. You agree to submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Singapore for the resolution of any dispute arising under or in connection with these terms.
We encourage you to contact us in the first instance at support@market.com.sg to attempt to resolve any dispute informally before commencing legal proceedings.
