## General Terms and Conditions of Business and Use for Nekodanshi and NekoConnect
### § 1 Provider, scope of application, and distinction from separately commissioned services
1. The operator of Nekodanshi and the community platform NekoConnect is
**Nakaryu GmbH**
Franz-Liszt-Straße 3
90571 Schwaig, Germany
Nuremberg Local Court, HRB 34930
E-mail: hey@nekodanshi.de
Hereinafter referred to as “Nekodanshi”, “NekoConnect”, “we” or “us”. Nekodanshi is a brand of Nakaryu GmbH and not an independent legal entity. The contractual partner is therefore Nakaryu GmbH.
2. These terms govern the use of the website nekodanshi.de and the community functions provided via it. These include in particular NekoConnect, public profiles and portfolios, directories and map views, follower, like and participation functions, community levels, event calendar, checklists, classified ads and/or the marketplace, reporting functions, shareable social media graphics, and, where applicable, an installable web app.
3. These terms apply to consumers and entrepreneurs. A consumer is any natural person who acts predominantly for private purposes. An entrepreneur is any natural or legal person or partnership with legal capacity that acts in the exercise of its commercial or independent professional activity when concluding the contract. Anyone offering business services or goods via NekoConnect or presenting themselves as a bookable person or organization is hereinafter additionally referred to as a “commercial user”.
4. **Separately commissioned B2B, agency, and project services are not part of community use.** This applies in particular to walk acts, show acts, event and gamification services, marketing, social media, influencer campaigns, content, photo and video productions, character design, costume and prop building, workshops, consulting, and other individually commissioned services.
5. A separate contract for a service under paragraph 4 only comes into existence through a separate offer, order confirmation, or individual agreement. Nakaryu’s terms and conditions apply to such a contract only if they are expressly incorporated at the time of the respective conclusion of contract and made available to the customer before submitting their declaration of intent. The version specified therein is authoritative. Individual agreements take precedence over Nakaryu’s terms and conditions. Registration with NekoConnect, making contact, or displaying a profile alone does not constitute such an order.
6. For external services, in particular Discord, Google Maps, and linked social networks, the terms and privacy notices of the respective provider may additionally apply. These external contractual relationships are separate from the user agreement with us.
### § 2 Subject matter and limitations of the community platform
1. NekoConnect provides a digital infrastructure through which adults and organizations from the cosplay, anime, manga, gaming, convention, creator, and pop culture scene can create profiles, present content, discover other members and organizations, and initiate contacts for joint projects.
2. The platform can be used in particular to
– publish profiles, portfolios, categories, interests, pronouns, external links, and voluntary location information;
– follow other profiles, like content, and view public interactions;
– discover and submit events and indicate one’s own participation or program role;
– maintain public checklists;
– publish classifieds and offers and contact providers via external contact details;
– present oneself as a creator, cosplayer, photographer, artist, performer, dealer, organizer, group, association, or other organization;
– participate on a voluntary basis in external community offerings such as a Discord server.
3. Unless expressly stated otherwise, community use is free of charge. There is no entitlement to a certain reach, placement, number of contacts, followers, likes, collaborations, job offers, bookings, income, or any other results.
4. Inclusion in NekoConnect does not establish an employment, commercial agent, brokerage, agency, partnership, or exclusive relationship. Members decide for themselves whether and under what conditions they accept contacts, projects, or inquiries. A contract between a member and a third party is concluded exclusively between those parties, unless Nekodanshi expressly acts itself as a contractual partner.
5. We are not obliged to generally check user content for legality or accuracy before publication. Statutory obligations to review, report, block, and remove content once we become aware of it remain unaffected.
### § 3 Registration, minimum age, and user account
1. Registration and use of NekoConnect are permitted exclusively to natural persons who have reached the age of 18. By registering, the user confirms that they are of legal age.
2. In compliance with data minimization, we may request suitable proof where this is necessary to verify legal age appropriately. If there are concrete doubts about legal age or if age information is contradictory, we may refuse registration, make activation dependent on verification, or block an existing account until the matter is clarified. Accounts belonging to minors will not be activated or will be terminated.
3. For legal entities, associations, groups, or other organizations, registration must be carried out by an adult person authorized to do so.
4. During registration, complete and accurate mandatory information must be provided. Changes to material information must be updated promptly. Names, designations, or profiles may not impersonate another identity or infringe third-party rights.
5. The user must provide a reachable e-mail address and keep their access data confidential. They may not transfer their account to third parties or permanently allow third parties to use it. If unauthorized access is suspected, the password must be changed immediately and Nekodanshi must be informed.
6. Unless otherwise permitted, each person may maintain only one personal main account. Additional accounts for legally or organizationally independent projects, groups, or companies are permitted if their assignment is transparent and they are not used to circumvent blocks, manipulate reach, or mislead others.
7. By submitting the registration, the user makes an offer to conclude a free user agreement. The contract comes into effect upon activation of the account or corresponding confirmation. We may refuse registrations for objective reasons, in particular in the event of missing or non-verifiable legal age, evident false information, security risks, previous serious violations, or lack of suitability for the described purpose of the platform.
8. Users must be able to review and accept the version of these terms provided during registration. We store the accepted version and the time of consent. The current version can be accessed and saved on the website at any time.
### § 4 Public visibility, search functions, sorting, and community levels
1. NekoConnect is generally designed for public visibility and networking. Published profiles, portfolios, ads, events, participation details, follower and like information, checklists, and other approved content may be accessible worldwide, findable via search engines, and shareable via links or user-triggered social media graphics.
2. Within the scope of the available settings, users decide for themselves which voluntary information they publish. Particularly sensitive or safety-relevant data, in particular a full date of birth, an exact residential address or map location, private contact details, travel dates, or information about other persons, should not be posted publicly. Information under data protection law and details on visibility settings are set out in the privacy policy and the respective input instructions.
3. Directories and lists may be sorted or filtered according to criteria selected by the user. The main parameters currently include in particular:
– for profiles: recency or registration time, alphabetical order, number of followers, random selection, search term, country, region, categories, interests, and pronouns;
– for events: event date, recency of the entry, alphabetical order, random selection, search term, time period, location, country, and categories;
– for classifieds: recency, alphabetical order, random selection, search term, and categories.
For text searches, the match and relevance of the search term may also be taken into account. Users can influence the visible order by selecting different sorting or filtering criteria.
4. No specific position in search results or directories is owed. Content may be editorially highlighted outside the standard lists, in particular due to recency, community relevance, quality, collaborations, sponsorship, or Nekodanshi’s own offers. Paid or sponsored highlights are marked as such. There is no hidden option to buy the regular ranking against payment unless explicitly disclosed otherwise on the platform.
5. Community levels, badges, progress indicators, likes, follower counts, and similar elements serve solely community interaction purposes. They have no monetary value, are non-transferable, and do not create any entitlement to benefits, assignments, or specific visibility. Incorrect or fraudulently obtained values may be corrected or reset.
### § 5 Special transparency requirements for commercial users
1. Commercial users must clearly state their commercial status and comply with all statutory information obligations applicable to their offer. They may not give the impression that they are acting as private individuals if the offer is attributable to their commercial or self-employed activity.
2. Commercial users may also offer the same or similar goods and services outside of NekoConnect and on different terms. There is no price or condition parity in favor of Nekodanshi.
3. NekoConnect currently does not provide its own payment, shipping, insurance, or financing services as ancillary services to offers by commercial users. Separately commissioned agency services by Nakaryu or Nekodanshi are independent contracts pursuant to § 1 paragraphs 4 and 5.
4. Through their account, commercial users have access to the data they themselves entered and that is displayed to them, insofar as the respective function provides for this. There is no entitlement to access internal platform data, non-public data of other users, algorithms, or platform-wide evaluations. We have access to the data necessary for provision, security, moderation, billing of separately commissioned services, and compliance with legal obligations. Further details on processing, recipients, export options, and retention periods are set out in the privacy policy.
5. After termination of the contract, account access ceases. Data will be deleted, anonymized, or retained only as long as required by the privacy policy, legal obligations, the assertion of claims, processing of reports, or technically limited backup cycles. Users should back up content they wish to keep before termination.
6. Nekodanshi’s own offers, offers from affiliated or cooperating partners, and editorially selected content may be highlighted outside the regular search order. The parameters described in § 4 apply within the regular directories. Sponsored content is labeled.
7. Content of commercial users is generally distributed via the website and/or web app and via user-triggered sharing functions. Any further use in advertising, press work, affiliate programs, or external marketing channels is only carried out on the basis of a separate agreement or consent, unless a statutory permission applies.
### § 6 User content and rights of use
1. “User content” means all content that users provide on or via NekoConnect, in particular profile texts, names, images, photographs, graphics, videos, links, event data, classifieds, prices, checklists, comments, or other information.
2. The user retains their rights to the user content. For the duration of publication, they grant us a simple, royalty-free, worldwide right limited to the operation of Nekodanshi/NekoConnect to technically store the content, reproduce it, scale or crop it for different screen sizes, compress it, make it publicly accessible in profiles, lists, maps, thumbnails, and search results, and create technically necessary backup copies and preview representations.
3. To the extent that the user triggers a sharing function or activates a corresponding public function, the grant of rights also includes the creation and provision of the corresponding social media preview or graphic. Any further advertising use by us, in particular in our own campaigns, requires a separate agreement or consent unless a statutory permission exists.
4. The grant of rights generally ends when the content is deleted or the account is terminated. Technically unavoidable backup copies, copies already shared by third parties, and records that we must retain due to legal obligations or for legal defense may continue to exist temporarily. Rights of third parties in copies already disseminated outside the platform remain unaffected.
5. The user warrants that they hold all rights necessary for publication. This applies in particular to copyright, trademark, design, naming, personality, data protection, and property rights as well as consents from depicted persons, photographers, models, organizers, and other rights holders. In the case of cosplay, fan art, and character content, the user is responsible for ensuring that their specific use of third-party figures, trademarks, designs, or works is legally permissible.
6. Users may not upload content whose publication violates confidentiality, nondisclosure, or data protection obligations. Personal data of third parties may only be published if there is a valid legal basis and any necessary information or consents are available.
7. For content depicting or otherwise identifying minors, all required consents and rights must be in place. Any further advertising use of such content by us always requires a separate, specific agreement or consent. Statutory consents required from the minor depicted person and their legal representatives remain unaffected.
### § 7 Community rules and prohibited use
1. Users must treat others respectfully and use the platform in accordance with applicable law, these terms, and any supplementary community rules.
2. The following are prohibited in particular:
– unlawful, criminal, misleading, or fraudulent content and offers;
– insults, threats, incitement to hatred, hate speech, targeted disparagement, bullying, stalking, doxxing, or calls for violence;
– discriminatory attacks based in particular on origin, skin color, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, religion, disability, or age;
– depictions of sexual abuse of children or adolescents, sexualized depictions of minors or persons whose age cannot be clearly determined, non-consensually distributed intimate content, and other impermissible pornographic or youth-endangering content;
– grooming, sexualized contact initiation toward minors, requests for the sending of intimate content, manipulative requests for secrecy, or exploitation of an age, dependency, or power imbalance;
– content that promotes human trafficking, sexual exploitation, self-harm, dangerous acts, or criminal offenses;
– infringements of copyright, trademark, design, personality, data protection, or other rights of third parties;
– identity deception, forged references, manipulated reach figures, fake accounts, or concealment of commercial activity;
– spam, unsolicited mass advertising, pyramid or Ponzi schemes, phishing, malware, automated mass queries, or technical attacks;
– automated scraping, collecting, profiling, or re-use of user and contact data without permission;
– circumvention of blocks, moderation measures, age requirements, security functions, or access restrictions;
– publication of exact private residential addresses, access data, or other highly sensitive data of third parties;
– unlawful or insufficiently labeled advertising as well as covert advertising, insofar as labeling is legally required.
3. A selectable category or interest such as “NSFW” or “Hentai” is not permission to publish explicit, unlawful, youth-endangering, or non-consensual content. Permissible artistic or thematic content must comply with the platform rules, third-party rights, and legal requirements. We may additionally restrict or remove corresponding categories or content.
4. Contacts established via NekoConnect are voluntary. A profile, follow, like, participation indication, or public contact option is not consent to harassing messages, sexual requests, pressure, stalking, or unsolicited mass advertising. Anyone who recognizes or must assume based on concrete indications that an account is being used by a minor may not continue the contact initiation and should report the account immediately.
### § 8 Classified ads and contracts between users
1. The marketplace is a technical publishing and contact facility for classified ads. Nekodanshi is neither seller, buyer, payment service provider, nor a party to the transactions concluded between users. A contract arises directly between the provider and the interested party.
2. Providers are solely responsible for the content, accuracy, pricing, availability, description, rights, safety, shipping, payment, taxes, warranty, right of withdrawal, mandatory information, and execution of their offer.
3. Commercial providers must clearly state their entrepreneurial status and, in particular, provide their identity, business address capable of service of process, contact information, total prices, and other legally required consumer information. Private providers may not present themselves as entrepreneurs; entrepreneurs may not present themselves as private sellers.
4. The following are prohibited in particular: offers for unlawful goods or services, counterfeits, stolen goods, non-marketable or unsafe products, prohibited weapons or items without the required age or authorization checks, drugs, malware, forged documents, third-party accounts or personal data, and sexual services. Permitted cosplay props may not be misleadingly presented as harmless if they actually pose dangers or if legal restrictions apply.
5. We do not verify the identity, creditworthiness, or reliability of a user unless a specific verification is expressly marked as having been carried out. Users must verify offers and contractual partners on their own responsibility. Suspicious offers should be reported via the reporting function.
6. Disputes arising from a transaction are generally to be resolved between the users involved. Statutory obligations of Nekodanshi, in particular to process reports and cooperate with authorities, remain unaffected.
### § 9 Events, participation details, checklists, and external community services
1. Event entries may be created editorially or by users. Submitters are responsible for accurate, up-to-date, and legally usable information, images, trademarks, and links. They must be authorized to publish them and may not create the false impression of being the official organizer or an official representative.
2. Event data may change or be incorrect. Before traveling, users must check the date, location, admission, age restrictions, program, safety rules, and other conditions with the respective organizer. Unless expressly stated otherwise for the specific event, Nekodanshi is not the organizer, ticket seller, or contractual partner.
3. A participation indication on NekoConnect is generally non-binding and does not replace registration, accreditation, booking, or a ticket. Public information about participation or program roles must be truthful and may not infringe third-party rights or security interests.
4. Checklists and other planning aids are user content. Users may not publicly disclose sensitive data of third parties, access data, or confidential production and travel data in them.
5. A Discord server or other external community service is technically operated by the respective third-party provider. In addition, its terms, privacy rules, and the respective server rules apply. A NekoConnect account does not create a permanent right of access to an external service. External services or individual areas may impose additional or higher age, access, and verification requirements. Moderation measures on Discord and on NekoConnect may be taken independently of each other where this is necessary to protect the respective community.
### § 10 Content moderation, reporting, measures, and review
1. Content and accounts may be reviewed if they are reported, technical security systems detect anomalies, we have concrete indications of a violation, or an authority or court requests this. Reports are generally assessed by a responsible person. Technical systems may be used in particular to detect spam, malware, mass registrations, or comparable security risks.
2. Possible measures include, in particular, non-activation, removal, or blocking of individual content, restriction of functions or reach, removal from search results, warnings, correction of manipulated values, temporary account suspension, or permanent termination of the account. We select the measure taking into account the type, severity, frequency, context, fault, consequences, and previous violations. Where sufficient, a milder measure takes precedence.
3. Unlawful content can be reported via the “Report” function available on the content or by e-mail to hey@nekodanshi.de. A report should include:
– the exact location, in particular the URL or clear designation of the content,
– a comprehensible explanation of why the content should be unlawful or violate these terms,
– suitable evidence, where available,
– the name and e-mail address of the reporting person, unless anonymous reporting is provided for by law or required for the person’s protection,
– a statement that the information is true and complete to the best of the person’s knowledge.
4. We confirm receipt of a sufficiently specific report and generally inform the reporting person of our decision without undue delay, provided contact details are available and no legal or security-related reasons prevent this.
5. Reports concerning depictions of sexual abuse, grooming, sexualized approaches to minors, threats, stalking, doxxing, extortion, or other acute danger are given priority. We may provisionally restrict contacts or functions, secure evidence, and involve the relevant protection authorities or government agencies in the event of a concrete danger, insofar as legally permissible or required.
6. If we restrict content or sanction an account, the affected user generally receives a clear explanation of the rule or legal basis applied, the essential facts, scope and duration of the measure, and the available review options. An explanation may be omitted or limited where legally required, where it would endanger investigations or personal safety, or where it could facilitate abusive manipulation.
7. Affected users and reporting persons may request a review free of charge by e-mail to hey@nekodanshi.de within six months of notification of a moderation decision. The request should identify the decision and explain why it is allegedly incorrect. The review is not carried out exclusively by automated means. Statutory rights to judicial protection, regulatory complaint, or out-of-court dispute resolution remain unaffected.
8. Anyone who repeatedly submits obviously unfounded reports or repeatedly publishes obviously unlawful content may, after prior warning, be temporarily excluded from the reporting or publishing function. In the event of acute danger, serious offenses, security risks, or mandatory legal obligations, an immediate measure may be taken.
9. If there is a concrete suspicion of a criminal offense that poses a danger to life or the safety of a person, we may and must inform the competent law enforcement or judicial authorities in accordance with statutory requirements.
### § 11 Availability, maintenance, updates, and changes to the platform
1. We strive to provide the platform reliably. Continuous, uninterrupted, or error-free availability is not guaranteed. Temporary restrictions may arise in particular due to maintenance, security updates, technical malfunctions, force majeure, attacks, capacity limits, or outages of hosting, mapping, e-mail, social media, or other third-party providers.
2. Statutory claims to provision, conformity, updates, supplementary performance, or damages remain unaffected.
3. We may further develop, adapt, or replace functions if there is good cause. Good cause includes in particular changes in the law or regulatory requirements, security and abuse prevention, technical development, compatibility, accessibility, changes to external interfaces, necessary capacity adjustments, or the further development of the community concept. This does not result in additional costs for users unless they separately agree to a paid extension.
4. If a change affects access or usability for a consumer more than insignificantly, we will notify them in advance within a reasonable period on a durable medium of the features, timing, and legal rights. Statutory rights to free termination of the contract remain unaffected.
5. Users are responsible for backing up their own original files and important content independently of NekoConnect. NekoConnect is not a permanent archive or backup service.
### § 12 Term and termination
1. The user agreement runs for an indefinite period.
2. Users may terminate the agreement at any time without notice via any available account deletion function or by e-mail to hey@nekodanshi.de.
3. We may terminate the free user agreement with 30 days’ notice in text form if there is objective reason, in particular in the event of a permanent discontinuation or fundamental restructuring of the service, disproportionate operating effort, or inactivity of at least 24 months. For commercial users, we communicate the reason on a durable medium.
4. The right of both parties to terminate without notice for good cause remains unaffected. Good cause for us exists in particular in the event of serious or repeated breaches of law or rules, identity deception, endangerment of other persons, fraud, manipulation, technical attacks, circumvention of a block, or mandatory legal or regulatory requirements. Where reasonable, prior warning and an opportunity to remedy the issue will be given.
5. For commercial users, complete ordinary termination is generally communicated at least 30 days before it takes effect, together with reasons. The period does not apply if a mandatory legal obligation, good cause, or demonstrably repeated breaches justify quicker termination.
6. After termination of the contract, the profile is no longer made publicly available. The handling of individual content, report data, backup copies, and data that must be retained by law is governed by § 5 paragraph 5, § 6 paragraph 4, and the privacy policy.
### § 13 Responsibility for users and external content
1. User content does not necessarily reflect the opinion of Nekodanshi. The respective user is responsible for their content, offers, and actions.
2. The providers of external websites and services are responsible for their content. Links or embeds do not constitute a recommendation or warranty of accuracy, legality, security, or continued availability. As soon as we gain actual knowledge of an unlawful link, we will review the necessary measures.
3. We do not owe any review of the professional suitability, identity, references, rights, insurance, or reliability of members, providers, project partners, or organizers, unless such a review is expressly confirmed for the specific profile or offer.
### § 14 Liability
1. We are liable without limitation in cases of intent and gross negligence, for culpable injury to life, body, or health, under the Product Liability Act, in cases of fraudulent concealment of a defect, and to the extent of an expressly assumed guarantee.
2. In the event of slightly negligent breach of an essential contractual obligation, liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. Essential contractual obligations are obligations whose fulfillment is essential for the proper execution of the contract and on whose compliance users may regularly rely.
3. Otherwise, liability for slight negligence is excluded. Mandatory statutory liability remains unaffected.
4. To the extent our liability is excluded or limited, this also applies to our legal representatives, employees, and vicarious agents.
5. In accordance with the preceding paragraphs, Nekodanshi is in particular not liable for damages arising from contracts between users, canceled events, incorrect event or profile details, disappointed expectations regarding reach or bookings, or the loss of user content, insofar as we are not responsible for the cause.
### § 15 Indemnification for infringements caused by users
1. If a user culpably violates third-party rights or legal obligations through their content, offers, or actions, they shall indemnify us against justified claims by third parties. The indemnification includes necessary and reasonable costs of legal defense at the statutory level.
2. We will inform the user of the claim and, insofar as legally and factually possible, give them the opportunity to comment and assist in the defense. We will not conclude any agreement to the user’s detriment without objective reason.
3. The indemnification does not apply insofar as the user is not responsible for the infringement. Further statutory claims remain unaffected.
### § 16 Data protection
1. Information on the processing of personal data, publicly visible profile information, map functions, recipients, retention periods, and data subject rights is contained in Nekodanshi’s privacy policy in its current version.
2. Acceptance of these terms does not replace any consent under data protection law. Where consent is required, it is obtained separately, voluntarily, in an informed manner, and revocably.
3. Users remain responsible for personal data of third parties that they publish themselves in profiles, portfolios, events, ads, checklists, or other content.
4. The processing of information or proof for checking legal age is limited to what is necessary. Full copies of proof will not be stored longer than is necessary for the verification and legally required evidence. The full date of birth is not automatically displayed publicly.
5. Approval of public profile fields, external contact links, or location information may not be made conditional on consent to advertising or technically unnecessary tracking.
### § 17 Changes to these terms
1. We may amend these terms with effect for the future if there is an objective reason, in particular due to changes in the legal situation or case law, regulatory requirements, security risks, new or changed platform functions, or to close an identifiable loophole. The contractual balance and essential user rights may not be unreasonably worsened.
2. We will inform users of changes at least 30 days before they take effect by e-mail or on another durable medium. If, due to the change, a commercial user exceptionally requires a longer technical or business adaptation period, a reasonably longer period will be granted. Retroactive changes to the detriment of commercial users will not be made unless they are mandatorily required by law; beneficial changes may be made retroactively.
3. Changes that require consent under the law will only become effective with express consent. Silence or mere continued use does not count as consent by consumers to a material change requiring consent.
4. Users may terminate the contract at any time before a change takes effect. If the required consent is not given and continuation under the previous version of the contract is unreasonable for us, we may terminate the contract ordinarily pursuant to § 12.
5. Shorter periods are permitted where we must act more quickly due to a mandatory legal or regulatory obligation or where we must avert an unforeseen immediate threat to the platform, consumers, or commercial users caused by fraud, malware, spam, data protection breaches, or other cybersecurity risks.
### § 18 Statutory withdrawal rights and consumer dispute resolution
1. Statutory withdrawal rights of consumers remain unaffected. If a right of withdrawal exists, the consumer will be informed of this separately before the contract is concluded and will receive a model withdrawal form. Regardless of this, the free community membership can be terminated at any time pursuant to § 12 paragraph 2.
2. Nakaryu GmbH is currently neither willing nor obliged to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board under the German Consumer Dispute Resolution Act.
3. The reporting, review, and legal protection options under § 10 as well as mandatory statutory complaint and dispute resolution rights for online platforms remain unaffected by paragraph 2.
### § 19 Governing law and place of jurisdiction
1. The law of the Federal Republic of Germany applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. For consumers, this choice of law applies only insofar as it does not deprive them of the protection afforded by mandatory provisions of the state in which they have their habitual residence.
2. If the user is a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for disputes arising from this contract shall be the registered office of Nakaryu GmbH. The same applies if an entrepreneur has no general place of jurisdiction in Germany. For consumers, the statutory places of jurisdiction apply.
3. The contract language is German. If translations are provided, they serve for understanding. If registration is carried out in another language, the version provided there must correspond in content to the authoritative contractual version.
### § 20 Final provisions
1. Individual agreements take precedence over these terms. Collateral agreements only exist if expressly agreed.
2. Should any provision of these terms be or become wholly or partially invalid, the statutory provisions shall apply in its place. The validity of the remaining provisions remains unaffected unless otherwise required by law.
