References in these Terms to Clover means Clover Network, LLC where the relevant Location is the United States of America, and the applicable affiliate of Clover Network, LLC where the relevant Location is outside of the United States of America. Location means the relevant country of incorporation of Clover Network, LLC or its applicable affiliate, with which you have contracted with for the provision of Clover Services (and as may be referred to as the Territory in such contracts outside of the United States of America).
