10 General complaints and questions

If you have any complaints or questions please contact us via email or by post using the contact information at the end of these Terms.

11 General

11.1 We will not be liable to you due to circumstances or causes outside our reasonably control. We shall not be in breach of these Terms nor liable for any delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of our obligations under these Terms if any such delay or failure results from events, circumstances or causes beyond our reasonable control.

11.2 If we delay in enforcing these Terms, we can still enforce them later. If you breach these Terms and we choose to ignore your breach, we will still be entitled to use our rights and remedies at a later date or in any other situation where you breach these Terms again.

11.3 If a court finds part of these Terms illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs in these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

11.4 Reliance on these Terms. We intend to rely on these written Terms and any document expressly referred to in them in relation to the subject matter of any contract between us. We and you will be legally bound by these Terms.

11.5 References to ‘including’ and other similar expressions. In these Terms, words that appear after the expression ‘include’, ‘including’, ‘other’, ‘for example’, ‘such as’ or ‘in particular’ (or any similar expression) will not limit the meaning of the words appearing before such expression.

11.6 You may not transfer your rights under these Terms to someone else. You may not assign, sub-license or otherwise transfer any of your rights under these Terms.

11.7 We may transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms to someone else. We may assign, novate or otherwise transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms to another organisation. We will contact you to let you know if we plan to do this.

11.8 Nobody else has rights under these Terms. These Terms do not create any right or benefit enforceable by any person other than you and us.

11.9 Language. The Terms and any contract between us will be concluded in English.

11.10 Which laws apply to these Terms and where you or we may bring legal proceedings. These Terms, and any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter or formation, shall be governed by, and construed in accordance with English law. If you are a consumer, you can bring legal proceedings in respect of these Terms in the English courts. If you live in Scotland you can bring those legal proceedings in either the Scottish or the English courts. If you live in Northern Ireland you can bring those legal proceedings in either the Northern Irish or the English courts. Nothing in these Terms shall deprive you as a consumer of the right to bring or defend proceedings in your home state nor the protection afforded to you as a consumer by the mandatory rules of law of the country in which you live. If you are a business, we and you irrevocably agree that the courts of England shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any dispute or claim (including non-contractual disputes or claims) arising out of or in connection with these Terms or their subject matter or formation.

11.11 Alternative dispute resolution. Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are a consumer and you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you may want to contact the alternative dispute resolution provider. You can submit a complaint to the Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution (CEDR) via its website at https://www.cedr.com/consumer/. CEDR will not charge you for making a complaint and if you are not satisfied with the outcome you can still bring legal proceedings.

12 Changes to these Terms

We may make changes to these Terms at any time so please check the relevant section of the App and/or the online store from which you download the App regularly. Any changes will take effect 7 days after the date we post the modified terms. If you continue to use or download the App after that period has expired, it means that you accept any such changes.
