31. Severability
31.1 Validity of Remaining Provisions
If any provision, clause, subsection, sentence, phrase, or part of these Terms and Conditions is determined by a court of competent jurisdiction, arbitral tribunal, or other competent authority to be invalid, illegal, unenforceable, void, or contrary to applicable law, such provision shall, to the fullest extent permitted by law, be interpreted, modified, or limited only to the extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while preserving, as nearly as possible, the original intent of the parties.
The invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity, legality, or enforceability of the remaining provisions of these Terms, all of which shall remain in full force and effect.
31.2 Partial Enforcement
Where any provision is capable of being enforced in part, that provision shall be enforced to the maximum extent permissible under applicable law, and only the unenforceable portion shall be deemed severed from these Terms.
31.3 Preservation of Commercial Intent
The parties acknowledge that each provision of these Terms has been negotiated and included independently. If any provision is declared unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue to reflect the commercial purpose, legal intent, and allocation of rights, responsibilities, and risks originally contemplated by the parties.
31.4 Replacement of Invalid Provisions
Where permitted by applicable law, any invalid, illegal, or unenforceable provision may be replaced by a valid and enforceable provision that most closely reflects the original legal and commercial intent of the invalid provision.
Acarya Labs reserves the right to amend these Terms to replace or modify any invalid provision to ensure continued compliance with applicable law while preserving the overall intent of this Agreement.
31.5 No Effect on Remaining Agreement
The invalidity or unenforceability of any individual provision shall not:
- terminate this Agreement;
- affect any other provision of these Terms;
- invalidate any User Account;
- affect any subscription or payment obligation;
- limit Acarya Labs' legal rights or remedies; or
- impair the enforceability of any remaining contractual obligations.
The remaining provisions shall continue to bind the parties as though the invalid provision had never formed part of these Terms.
31.6 Reservation of Rights
Acarya Labs reserves all rights, remedies, defenses, and protections available under applicable law. Nothing contained in this Section shall be interpreted as limiting the Company's ability to revise, replace, or amend any provision of these Terms to ensure compliance with future legal, regulatory, or judicial requirements.
The provisions of this Section shall survive the suspension, termination, expiration, or discontinuation of the Platform, the Services, any User Account, or these Terms and Conditions.
32. Waiver
32.1 No Waiver by Delay or Failure to Act
No failure, omission, delay, or partial exercise by Acarya Labs of any right, remedy, power, privilege, or legal protection under these Terms or applicable law shall operate as or be construed as a waiver of such right, remedy, power, or privilege.
The exercise of any right or remedy on one occasion shall not prevent or restrict the exercise of the same or any other right or remedy at any subsequent time.
32.2 Express Waiver Only
No waiver by Acarya Labs of any provision of these Terms, or of any breach or default by a User, shall be effective unless it is:
- expressly stated in writing;
- clearly identified as a waiver; and
- executed or approved by a duly authorized representative of Acarya Labs.
No oral statement, informal communication, customer support interaction, or failure to enforce any provision shall constitute a valid waiver.
32.3 No Continuing Waiver
A waiver of any breach, default, or violation shall apply only to the specific matter for which the waiver is expressly granted.
Such waiver shall not:
- constitute a waiver of any future or continuing breach;
- affect any other provision of these Terms;
- prevent Acarya Labs from enforcing the same provision in the future; or
- limit any other legal or equitable remedy available to Acarya Labs.
32.4 Preservation of Rights
The failure of Acarya Labs to immediately investigate, enforce, or exercise any contractual or legal right shall not be interpreted as acceptance of the User's conduct or as a relinquishment of any rights or remedies.
Acarya Labs expressly reserves the right to enforce any provision of these Terms at any time, even if it has previously elected not to do so.
32.5 Cumulative Remedies
All rights and remedies available to Acarya Labs under these Terms, applicable law, equity, or otherwise are cumulative and not exclusive.
The exercise of any one right or remedy shall not preclude the exercise of any other right or remedy available to Acarya Labs.
32.6 User Waiver
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, the User irrevocably waives any claim, defense, or objection arising solely from:
- Acarya Labs' delay in exercising any right;
- Acarya Labs' partial enforcement of these Terms;
- previous leniency shown by Acarya Labs;
- the absence of immediate enforcement action; or
- any prior course of dealing between the User and Acarya Labs.
Nothing in this Section shall require Acarya Labs to exercise any right immediately upon the occurrence of a breach.
32.7 Reservation of Rights
Acarya Labs expressly reserves all rights, remedies, powers, privileges, defenses, and legal protections available under these Terms and applicable law.
Nothing contained in this Section shall be interpreted as limiting Acarya Labs' ability to enforce these Terms, pursue legal proceedings, seek injunctive relief, recover damages, suspend or terminate Services, or exercise any other contractual or statutory right at any time permitted by law.
The provisions of this Section shall survive the suspension, termination, expiration, or discontinuation of the Platform, the Services, any User Account, or these Terms and Conditions.
