VIOLATIONS

If Yabi becomes aware of any possible violations by you of these Terms, then we reserve the right to investigate such violations. If, as a result of the investigation, we suspect or have reason to believe that criminal activity has occurred, then we shall refer the matter to any relevant applicable legal authorities.  

Yabi is entitled, except to the extent prohibited by the Applicable Law(s), to disclose any information or materials on the Website and/or App, including Your Content, to:

⦁ enforce the Terms;

SEVERABILITY

If any court or competent legal authority decides that any of the provisions or paragraphs of these Terms are invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable to any extent, the Term will, to that extent only, be severed from the remaining Terms, which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by the Applicable Law(s).

WAIVER

If we fail to insist upon strict performance of any of the Users’ obligations under these Terms, or if we fail to exercise any of the rights or remedies to which we are entitled under these Terms, this will not constitute a waiver of such rights or remedies and will not relieve Users from compliance with such obligations.

Waiver by us of any particular default(s) will not constitute a waiver of any subsequent default(s).

These Terms are between the Users and us. No other third-party shall have any right to enforce any of its terms, unless expressly stated in these Terms, or as authorised in writing by Us.
