If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under these Terms, or if we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived our rights against you and will not mean that you do not have to comply with those obligations. If we do waive a default by you, we will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that we will automatically waive any later default by you.

However, if you are resident of any other European Union country you will benefit from mandatory consumer provisions of, and legal rights available to you under, the laws of that country. Nothing in these Terms of Use affects your rights to rely on these local law mandatory consumer provisions and legal rights. You and we both agree that the courts of England and Wales will have non-exclusive jurisdiction.
