or to exercise any right under them shall not be construed as a waiver or
relinquishment of Myownpad's right to assert or rely upon any such provision
or right in that or any other instance. b) You and Myownpad agree
that if any portion of these Terms, except any portion of section 12(e), is
found illegal or unenforceable, in whole or in part by any court of competent

affecting the validity or enforceability thereof in any other manner or
jurisdiction and without affecting the remaining provisions of the Terms,
which shall continue to be in full force and effect. If Section 12(e) is
found to be illegal or unenforceable then neither you nor Myownpad will elect
to arbitrate any Dispute falling within that portion of Section 12(e) found
to be illegal or unenforceable and such Dispute shall be decided by a court
of competent jurisdiction within Adelaide, South Australia, Australia, and

between the parties nor trade practice will act to modify these Terms to any
party at any time without any notice to you. You may not assign these Terms
without Myownpad's prior written consent. These Terms contain the entire
understanding of you and Myownpad, and supersede all prior understandings of
the parties here to relating to the subject matter hereof, and cannot be
changed or modified by you except as posted on the Service by Myownpad. If
any provision of these Terms is found to be illegal or unenforceable, the
Terms will be deemed curtailed to the extent necessary to make it legal and
enforceable and will remain, as modified, in full force and effect. No waiver

waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. The section headings
