We may transfer our rights and/or obligations under these Terms to another organisation at any time, but this will not negatively affect your rights or our obligations under these Terms. Without limiting the preceding sentence, we may wish to transfer our rights or obligations under these Terms to another company within our corporate group or any other legal entity, including if we restructure or there is a sale of our business. You agree that we may do so provided that in the case of such a transfer, after we notify you of the date on which such transfer takes place, your rights under these Terms will be against the new legal entity. If you are unhappy with the change, you may close your account (if applicable) and cease using the Platform at any time.
These Terms are not intended to give rights to anyone except you and us. This does not affect our right to transfer our rights or obligations or sub-contract our obligations under these Terms to another legal entity under the first paragraph of this Section 19.
These Terms are personal to you. You may not transfer your rights or obligations under these Terms to anyone else.
If we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that does not mean that we have waived our rights against you, and it does not mean that you are relieved of your obligations under these Terms. If we do waive a breach by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later breach by you.
If any court or competent authority decides that any of the provisions in these Terms are unlawful or unenforceable, those provisions will be deemed removed and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
These Terms are governed by English law and the courts of England and Wales have non-exclusive jurisdiction, provided that such choice of law and jurisdiction will not deprive you of any mandatory consumer protections in your country of residence (if different).
