If you accept US clients, they can get you for doing business in the US. You also use a US based processor (WTS), bill in US dollars and have a North American customer support phone number which further supports that you are doing business in the US.

It doesn't matter where your business is incorported, if you have US customers you potentially subject yourself to US law.

Of course this doesn't mean that US law could be actually enforced against you, that would depend on other factors.
