However, nothing in these Terms excludes liability for any fraudulent statement or act.

If a court with jurisdiction over these Terms finds any part of these Terms wholly or partially unenforceable, we agree that, if possible, the court should modify the terms to make that part enforceable while still achieving its intent. If the court cannot do that, we agree that the court should not have regard to that unenforceable part but still enforce the rest of these Terms.

If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or we do not act or delay in acting to exercise a right or remedy provided by these Terms, that does not mean we have waived our rights or remedies against you, nor does it mean that you do not have to comply with your obligations.

These Terms are personal to you, and you agree not to assign or transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms to anyone else without our prior written consent. We may assign or transfer these Terms without your consent by providing you with notice.

You and we agree that no agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created as a result of these Terms, and you do not have any authority of any kind to bind us in any respect.

You agree that the only way to provide us with a legal notice is at the address(es) set out in Part A above.

This final section of the Terms clarifies that references to laws, regulations, and other legal instruments also include any modifications, replacements, or consolidations of them.
