Validity and termination

Period of validity

The validity period of these terms of use is from the effective date until its expiration in accordance with the provisions of sections below.

Termination of the contract

You and NYGGS can end the legal agreement that’s based on these terms anytime, for any reason, and you can do it right away, after you’ve notified the other person in writing or after you’ve cancelled or suspended their account, as long as it doesn’t affect any other service provision agreement that’s already been formalized between you and NYGGS. So these general terms and conditions will still apply to the above mentioned service provision contracts until they expire.

Consequences of terminating the contract

The termination of those terms of use shall be without prejudice to the terms of use which, by virtue of their nature, are valid beyond the contractual termination date, so that those terms will remain in effect after the termination of those general terms (specifically, and by analogy, certain provisions concerning the discharge of liability or compensation for NYGGS).

Termination of the agreement

Both parties have the right to end the legal relationship based on these terms of use whenever they want, with or without cause, after giving written notice to the other party, or by cancelling or suspending the User’s account. This termination doesn’t have to affect any service provision agreements that were previously made by NYGGS with the Client, or by the Client with the Service Provider, so these general terms will still apply to those agreements until they’re terminated.

Consequences of the termination of the agreement

The termination of these Terms of Use shall not affect the terms and conditions which, by their nature, remain in force after the termination of this Agreement. Accordingly, those terms and conditions shall remain in effect after the termination of these General Terms of Use (including but not limited to certain provisions concerning the indemnity or discharge of NYGGS of any liability).

Inalienability of rights

The fact that one party fails to exercise any of the rights or claims arising from these general terms of use or delays exercising those rights or claims shall not constitute waiver of those rights or claims and shall in no way affect the power of the other party to exercise or enforce those rights or claims. Unless the other party expressly waives the right or claim in writing and through the intervention of an appropriately authorized representative.

Nullity

If any portion of the terms and conditions is deemed unlawful or invalid and, accordingly, cannot be enforced, the terms and conditions shall remain valid and in accordance with the other general terms of use and the corresponding provisions shall be amended by NYGGS to ensure that the set of terms and conditions comply with the applicable regulations resulting from application and, at all times, that the parties’ wishes are met to the fullest extent.

The fact that a condition is unlawful, invalid or otherwise unenforceable in one jurisdiction does not invalidate, invalidate or otherwise affect the lawfulness, validity and enforceability of that condition in another jurisdiction or of that condition in a third jurisdiction.
