We may revise and update these Terms from time to time at our sole discretion. Material changes will be reflected with an updated "Last updated" date at the top of this page. We may also provide additional notice for significant changes, such as through a notice on our homepage. Your continued use of the Website following the posting of revised Terms means that you accept and agree to the changes.

The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. No waiver of any term shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of such term or any other term.
