Any such action by TRG does not limit our rights or remedies at law or in equity.
Without limiting other remedies, we may immediately issue a warning, temporarily suspend, indefinitely suspend, or terminate your access and use of the Site and refuse to provide our services to you at any time, with or without advance notice, if:
-
We believe that you have breached any material term of these Terms;

SEVERABILITY
If any part of these Terms or this Agreement is determined to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by the arbitrator or a court of competent jurisdiction including, but not limited to, the warranty disclaimers and liability limitations set forth above, then the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions will not in any way be affected or impaired and the invalid or unenforceable provision will be deemed superseded by a valid, enforceable provision that most closely matches the intent of the original provision and the remainder of the Agreement shall continue in effect. Our failure or delay in enforcing any provision of these Terms at any time does not waive our right to enforce the same or any other provision in the future.
FORCE MAJEURE
We shall not be responsible for any failure to perform due to unforeseen circumstances or to causes beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to: acts of God, such as fire, flood, earthquakes, hurricanes, tropical storms or other natural disasters; epidemics (including Covid 19), quarantines, war, riot, arson, embargoes, acts of civil or military authority, or terrorism; fiber cuts; strikes, or shortages in facilities, fuel, energy, labor or materials; failure of the telecommunications or information services infrastructure; hacking, SPAM, or any failure of a computer, server, or software, for so long as such event continues to delay, inhibit or interrupt our performance.
