If any provision of this License Agreement is found by any court or administrative body of competent jurisdiction to be invalid or unenforceable, then the invalidity or unenforceability shall not affect the other provisions of this License Agreement and all provisions not affected shall remain in full force and effect. Both parties will attempt to substitute the unenforceable clause with a valid and enforceable provision, which achieves to the greatest extent possible the economic, legal and commercial objectives of the invalid or unenforceable provision.

15. Dispute Resolution and Governing Law
We hope that you will not have any cause for complaint. If, however, you do have any problem or complaint about us, please raise it in the first instance with info@zoomcouriersoftware.com. These terms of business will be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of Ireland. Any dispute arising out of these terms of business or our provision of services to you will be submitted in the first instance to a standard complaints process where we will seek to solve any problem you have encountered in an efficient and transparent manner. If Zoom Couriers Software is unable to solve in such a fashion, voluntary mediation under the auspices of the Centre for Dispute Resolution, Dublin, (www.dublinarbitration.com) is the first instance of mediation. Should this mediation not be successful, an arbitration by an arbitrator appointed by the arbitration body, without any conflict of interest towards either party, expressed or implied, shall take charge of the arbitration.

16. Refund Policy
The Licensor does not provide refunds even if the Licensee terminates the License Agreement prior to the contract expiring. If the Licensee has a complaint about the licensed product, the Licensee may contact the Licensor as outlined in the above paragraph.

17. Governing law
this agreement and any other agreement affiliated to this is governed by the laws of EIRE (The Republic of Ireland).
