If a court finds any provision of these Terms of Use unlawful, the other provisions will continue in force. Each paragraph in these Terms of Use operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them is unlawful, the other paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

Even if we delay in enforcing our rights under these Terms of Use, we can still do so later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these Terms of Use, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breach of these Terms of Use, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.
