Other important terms
We may transfer our rights and
obligations under a Contract to another organisation, but this will not affect
your rights or our obligations under these Terms.
You may only transfer your rights
or your obligations under these Terms to another person if we agree in
writing.
This contract is between you and
our company. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its
terms.
Each of the paragraphs of these
Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any
of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in
full force and effect.
If we fail to insist that you
perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our
rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have
waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply
with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in
writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later
default by you.
If you are a consumer, please
note that these Terms are governed by English law. This means a Contract for
the purchase of Products through our website and any dispute or claim arising
out of or in connection with it will be governed by English law. You and we
both agree to that the courts of England and Wales will have non-exclusive
jurisdiction. However, if you are a resident of Northern Ireland you may also
bring proceedings in Northern Ireland, and if you are a resident of Scotland,
you may also bring proceedings in Scotland.
If you are a business, these
Terms are governed by English law. This means that a Contract, and any dispute
or claim arising out of or in connection with it or its subject matter or
formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims), will be governed by
English law. We both agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of
England and Wales.
