(b) there are no legal restrictions preventing you from entering into these Terms;

13. Australian Consumer Law

13.1     Certain legislation, including the Australian Consumer Law (ACL) in the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth), and similar consumer protection laws and regulations, may confer you with rights, warranties, guarantees and remedies relating to the provision of the Platform by us to you which cannot be excluded, restricted or modified (Consumer Law Rights).

15. Termination

15.1     Cancellation of Memberships: You may terminate your Membership in accordance with clause 8.1. .

Should you cancel your Membership with us, you will continue to have an Account with us, should you seek to reactivate your Membership in the future.

15.2     If you attempt to terminate your Membership (other than in accordance with clause 15.1), we will continue to debit the monthly Fee (or require you to pay a lump sum for the remaining Fees left in the current annual period). This is a genuine pre-estimate of our loss due to you being able to obtain full value of the Membership in a short period of time.

15.3     A Membership will terminate immediately upon written notice by a Party (Non-Defaulting Party) if:

(a) the other Party (Defaulting Party) breaches a material term of these Terms and that breach has not been remedied within 5 Business Days of the Defaulting Party being notified of the breach by the Non-Defaulting Party; or

(c) where we terminate your Membership for any reason, you also agree to pay us our reasonable additional costs directly arising from such termination.

15.6     Termination of a Membership will not affect any rights or liabilities that a Party has accrued under these Terms. 

15.7     This clause will survive the termination or expiry of your Membership.

16. General

Nothing in this clause will operate to prevent a Party from seeking urgent injunctive or equitable relief from a court of appropriate jurisdiction.

16.10   Severance: If a provision of these Terms is held to be void, invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision is to be read down as narrowly as necessary to allow it to be valid or enforceable, failing which, that provision (or that part of that provision) will be severed from these Terms without affecting the validity or enforceability of the remainder of that provision or the other provisions in these Terms.

16.11   Third party sites: The Platform may contain links to websites operated by third parties. Unless we tell you otherwise, we do not control, endorse or approve, and are not responsible for, the content on those websites.
