By accessing or otherwise using any Services in any way, or by making a purchase of any of the products we sell or merely browsing the website, you agree to be bound by these Terms as well as any other applicable terms and conditions or agreements you enter into with us regarding your use of any portion of the Services. If you do not agree to be bound by these Terms you should not download, access, or otherwise use any Services.

To use the Services you may be required to comply with third-party platform operator terms (e.g., Apple’s App Store or Google’s Play Store terms).

Use of your personal information

We will use your personal data as set out in our Privacy Policy.


General

These Terms and any document incorporated by reference constitute the entire agreement between the parties with respect to its subject matter and supersede any previous terms between the parties in relation to such matters. The limitations, exclusions and restrictions in these Terms shall inure to the benefit of our licensors, successor, and assigns. These Terms are drafted in the English language and may be translated into other languages. The English language version of these Terms shall prevail if there is a conflict or inconsistency, or clarification required with other language versions. The headings in these Terms are for ease of reference only and shall be disregarded in construing or interpreting the Terms.

If we fail to enforce any provision of these Terms, that failure will not preclude us from enforcing either that provision (or any similar provision) on a later occasion. If any provision of these Terms is found by a court to be invalid, we agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision and that other provisions remain in full force and effect. We may transfer all or part of our rights or duties under these Terms provided we take reasonable steps to ensure that your rights under these Terms are not prejudiced.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the state of Delaware. You and we both agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the state and federal courts in Delaware and stipulate to the fairness and convenience of proceedings in such courts for all disputes arising out of or relating to use of the Services.


Force majeure

Force majeure means any cause or event beyond the reasonable control of the affected party including without limitation war, civil war, armed conflict, or terrorist attack, nuclear, chemical or biological contamination, pandemic, strikes, civil action, unavailability of the internet, unscheduled hosting and maintenance to systems, power and data losses and acts of God. We shall not be obliged to perform our obligations under these Terms to the extent that we are prevented from doing so by reason of an event of force majeure. Performance of these Terms may cease during the continuation of the force majeure event and for such time after that event ceases as is necessary for us to start satisfying our obligations again. For so long as such force majeure event is continuing, our corresponding obligations under these Terms shall be suspended to the same extent. If such force majeure continues for a continuous period in excess of four months, we may terminate access to the Services immediately on service of notice to you.
