6.7 If we need to change or cancel an order, we may attempt to notify you by contacting the e-mail, billing address and/or phone number that you provided during the order process.

We may make changes to these terms from time to time and to the extent practicable we will give 30 days’ days’ prior notice of any material changes and, for paid-for subscription services, such changes will then take effect from the start of the next Renewal Period, unless the change is due to a change in law or for security reasons (in which case we may need to change these terms on shorter notice).

16.5 If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking this contract, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date.

16.6 Which laws apply to this contract and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in the English courts.

If you live in Northern Ireland you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products in either the Northern Irish or the English courts.

16.7 Alternative dispute resolution. Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without you having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, you may want to contact the alternative dispute resolution provider we use. You can submit a complaint to CEDR via their website at www.cedr.com/. If you are not satisfied with the outcome from CEDR, you can still bring legal proceedings.
