16. ANY OTHER TERMS?

a) Any formal legal notices should be sent to us at our Customer Services address set out in the Contact us section.

b) Applicable laws require that some of the information or communications we send to you should be in writing. When using our site, you accept that communication with us will be mainly electronic. We may therefore communicate with you by email or provide you with information by posting notices on the site. For contractual purposes, you consent to receive communications from us electronically and you agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures and other communications that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing. This condition does not affect your statutory rights. We may give notice to you at either the e-mail or postal address you provide to us, or by posting notices on the site. Notice will be deemed received and properly served when you first view our site after the notice has been posted on our site, 24 hours after an e-mail is sent to you, or three days after the date of posting of any letter. In proving the service of any notice, it will be sufficient to prove, in the case of a letter, that such letter was properly addressed, stamped and placed in the post and, in the case of an e-mail, that such e-mail was sent to the specified e-mail address of the addressee.

c) If any provision of these Terms & Conditions is declared invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent by any court or competent authority, then these Terms & Conditions shall be read as if that provision had been omitted and the remaining provisions shall remain in full force and effect to the fullest extent permitted by law.

d) Failure by us to enforce a right or any provision of these Terms & Conditions or to insist upon strict performance of any of your obligations under any contract between you and us or to exercise any of the rights or remedies to which we are entitled under any such contract, will not constitute a waiver of such rights or remedies and will not preclude us from enforcing either that provision or any similar provision on a later occasion. A waiver by us of any default will not constitute a waiver of any subsequent default. No waiver by us of any of these Terms & Conditions will be effective unless it is expressly stated to be a waiver and is communicated to you in writing in accordance with these Terms & Conditions.

e) Any contract between you and us is binding on you and us and on our respective successors and assignees.

f) You may not assign or transfer, charge or otherwise dispose of your rights under these Terms & Conditions and any contract between you and us without our prior written consent.

g) We will not be in breach of these Terms and Conditions as a result of, or liable for any loss or damage caused by, our failure to discharge an obligation in time or at all if our failure to do so is due to a cause beyond our reasonable control (“Force Majeure Event”) and we will have an extension of time for performance while the Force Majeure Event continues and for a reasonable period afterwards. We will use our reasonable endeavours to bring the Force Majeure Event to a close or to find a solution by which our obligations under the contract may be performed despite the Force Majeure Event.
