17.5 We may transfer our rights and obligations under this EULA to another organisation, but this will not affect your rights or our obligations under this EULA. You may not transfer or assign your rights and obligations under this EULA to a third party.
17.6 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under this EULA, 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.
17.7 This EULA, its subject matter and its formation, are governed by the laws of England and Wales. You and we both agree that the courts of England will have exclusive jurisdiction in relation to any dispute connected with this EULA or the Software.

We shall not be obliged to perform our obligations under this EULA to the extent that we are prevented from doing so by reason of an event of force majeure. Performance of this EULA 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 this EULA shall be suspended to the same extent.

17.2 Any change to the terms of this EULA shall be effective immediately and your continued use of the Software in any way shall constitute on-going acceptance of the updated terms of this EULA, as updated or varied from time to time. We therefore recommend that you check the terms and conditions of this EULA regularly.
17.3 Each of the warranties and conditions (or rights and obligations) of this EULA operates separately.
17.4 If any provision, or part provision, of this EULA, including each of the warranties and conditions (or rights and obligations) is found to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable by any court or competent authority, the legality, validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions, including the warranties and conditions of this EULA will not be affected.
17.5 We may transfer our rights and obligations under this EULA to another organisation, but this will not affect your rights or our obligations under this EULA. You may not transfer or assign your rights and obligations under this EULA to a third party.
17.6 If we fail to insist that you perform any of your obligations under this EULA, 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.
17.7 This EULA, its subject matter and its formation, are governed by the laws of England and Wales. You and we both agree that the courts of England will have exclusive jurisdiction in relation to any dispute connected with this EULA or the Software.
