    1. Creator Interactions are governed by the Contract between Fan and Creator.

    9. If you provide details of more than one payment method and a Fan Payment from the first method fails, we will use the other payment method for the Fan Payment.
    10. When you select "Subscribe," you agree to start a Subscription. A Subscription will automatically renew at the current rate (plus Indirect Sales Tax).

    12. You agree not to make: (i) unjustified requests for a refund; or (ii) unjustified chargeback requests of your payment card provider in relation to any Creator Interaction or tip to a Creator.

    13. You can prepay an amount on Blengi ("Wallet Credits") which you can later use for Fan Payments. Purchases on Blengi cannot be divided - if you attempt a purchase that costs more than the total amount of your remaining Wallet Credits, your payment card will be charged the full amount for that purchase. Wallet Credits are subject to a maximum amount as indicated. Interest will not accrue on Wallet Credits. Wallet Credits are non-refundable, which means that you are not entitled to a refund of any unused Wallet Credits.

    1. For Consumers:

      • Choice of law: To the greatest extent permitted by the laws of the place where you live, your agreement with us is governed by the laws of England, which will apply to any claim arising out of or in connection with your agreements with us or your use of Blengi including non-contractual disputes or claims. You may also rely on mandatory rules of the law of the country where you live.
      • Forum selection: For United Kingdom and European Union residents, the courts of England and Wales or the courts of the country where you live will have jurisdiction over a claim which arises out of or in connection with your agreement with us or your use of Blengi (including non-contractual disputes or claims). For all others, the courts of England and Wales will have jurisdiction over any claim which arises out of or in connection with your agreement with us or your use of Blengi (including non-contractual disputes or claims).
      • For United States residents, a court in Wilmington, Delaware will have jurisdiction over any claim that is exclusively against Fenix Internet LLC, located at 1000 N. West Street, Suite 1200, Wilmington, Delaware, 19801, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Fenix International Limited.
    2. For Business Users:

      • Choice of law: If you are a Business User, your agreement with us is governed by the laws of England and Wales, which will apply to any dispute arising out of or in connection with your agreement with us or your use of Blengi including non- contractual disputes or claims without regard to conflict of law provisions.
