  10. Rights of other Parties: Nobody else has any rights under these Terms and Conditions. Your contract is between you and us.
  11. Enforceability: If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these Terms and Conditions operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
  12. Waiver of Rights: Even if we delay in enforcing these Terms and Conditions, we can still enforce them later. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the Sunflower Membership, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
  13. Delays outside our control: If our supply of the Sunflower Membership service is delayed by an event outside our control then we will contact you as soon as possible to let you know and we will take steps to minimise the effect of the delay. Provided we do this we will not be liable for delays caused by the event, but if there is a risk of substantial delay you may contact us to end the Sunflower Membership and receive a refund for any services you have paid for but not received.
