(c)             using suitably skilled, experienced and qualified personnel.

3.2           Non-exclusive:  Stickybeak’s provision of the Services to the Customer is non-exclusive.  Nothing in these Terms prevents Stickybeak from providing the Services to any other person.

3.3           Availability:  

(a)            Subject to clause 3.3(b) Stickybeak will use reasonable efforts to ensure the Service is available on a 24/7 basis.  However, it is possible that on occasion the Service may be unavailable to permit maintenance or other development activity to take place, or in the event of Force Majeure.  Stickybeak will use reasonable efforts to publish on the Platform advance details of any unavailability.  Stickybeak will not be liable to the Customer for any failure or inability to provide continuous error free uninterrupted Services caused by circumstances outside Stickybeak’s control.

(b)            Through the use of web services and APIs, the Service interoperates with a range of third party service features.  Stickybeak does not make any warranty or representation on the availability of those features.  Without limiting the previous sentence, if a third party feature provider ceases to provide that feature or ceases to make that feature available on reasonable terms, Stickybeak may cease to make available that feature to the Customer.  To avoid doubt, if Stickybeak exercises its right to cease the availability of a third party feature, the Customer is not entitled to any refund, discount or other compensation.

12.5        Notices:  If Stickybeak needs to contact the Customer, it may do so by email or by posting a notice on the Platform.  The Customer agrees that this satisfied all legal requirements in relation to written communications.  The Customer may give notice to Stickybeak under or in connection with these Terms by emailing support@stickybeak.co.  

12.6        Severability:  If any provision of these Terms is, or becomes, illegal, unenforceable or invalid, the relevant provision is deemed to be modified to the extent required to remedy the illegality, unenforceability or invalidity.  If modification is not possible, the provision must be treated for all purposes as severed from these Terms without affecting the legality, enforceability or validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms.

12.7        Survival: Clauses which, by their nature, are intended to survive termination of these Terms, including clauses 5.6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11.4 and 12.11 continue in force.

12.10      Subcontracting and assignment:  The Customer may not assign, novate, subcontract or transfer any right or obligation under these Terms without the prior written consent of Stickybeak, that consent not to be unreasonably withheld.  The Customer remains liable for its obligations under these Terms despite any approved assignment, subcontracting or transfer.  Any assignment, novation, subcontracting or transfer must be in writing.

12.11      Law:  These Terms are governed by, and must be interpreted in accordance with, the laws of New Zealand.  Each party submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the Courts of New Zealand in relation to any dispute connected with these Terms.
