13. Term and Termination
These Terms of Service remain in effect from the date of your first use of our website or services until terminated as provided herein. Either party may terminate these Terms at any time by providing 30 days written notice to the other party, provided that termination does not relieve either party of obligations accrued prior to termination, and any ongoing SOW shall continue to be governed by these Terms until completed or terminated under its own provisions.
Either party may terminate an SOW immediately upon written notice if: (a) the other party materially breaches the SOW or these Terms and fails to cure the breach within 30 days (or 10 days for payment breaches) after receiving written notice describing the breach in reasonable detail; or (b) the other party becomes insolvent, makes a general assignment for the benefit of creditors, or has a receiver or trustee appointed over its assets.
Upon termination of an SOW: (i) you shall pay all fees for Services performed and expenses incurred through the effective date of termination; (ii) each party shall return or destroy the other party’s Confidential Information; and (iii) Sections 6 through 16 of these Terms, and any other provisions that by their nature should survive, shall survive termination.

These Terms of Service and any dispute arising out of or related to them shall be governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
14.3 Venue
Subject to Section 14.1, any legal action arising out of or related to these Terms shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Sacramento County, California.
