We are not liable for events outside our control. We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of, any of our obligations that is caused by events outside our reasonable control (each a "Force Majeure Event" ). A Force Majeure Event includes any act, event, non-happening, omission or accident beyond our reasonable control. The performance of our obligations under these Terms of Use is deemed to be suspended for the period that the Force Majeure Event continues, and we will have an extension of time for performance for the duration of that period. We will use reasonable efforts to bring the Force Majeure Event to a close or to find a solution by which our obligations under these Terms of Use may be performed despite the Force Majeure Event.
Other agreements between you and 24USE. You may have entered into other agreements with 24USE or its affiliates, or may have accepted other terms and conditions governing the use of other services provided by 24USE or its affiliates. These Terms of Use apply in addition to any such agreements. In the event of any conflict or ambiguity between these Terms and any other agreement between you and 24USE or its affiliate, the provisions of these Terms will prevail (but only to the extent of such conflict or ambiguity).
We may transfer our rights and obligations. We may transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms of Use to another organisation. We will notify you in writing if this happens, and we will ensure that the transfer will not affect your rights under these Terms of Use.
Nobody else has any rights under these Terms of Use. These Terms of Use are between you and 24USE only, and no other person will have any rights to enforce or rely on any of its provisions.
Even if we delay enforcing our rights under these Terms of Use, we can still enforce them 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 taking steps against you in respect of your breaching 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.
If a court finds part of these Terms of Use illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the sections of these Terms of Use operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining sections will remain in full force and effect.
