If you are located in the European Economic Area (EEA), the United Kingdom, or Canada, additional rights and protections may apply to you under the General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR), UK GDPR, or the Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act (PIPEDA), as applicable.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Gairns Consulting UK LLP retains the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of our intellectual property rights or other proprietary rights.
For clients based in Canada, to the extent that Canadian consumer protection legislation grants mandatory protections that cannot be waived by contract, those protections shall apply.

Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking immediate injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction when necessary to prevent irreparable harm.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Site and Services, in whole or in part, at our sole discretion, without prior notice or liability, for any reason, including but not limited to:
Upon termination, your right to use the Site and Services will cease immediately. All provisions of these Terms which by their nature should survive termination shall survive termination, including but not limited to intellectual property provisions, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnification obligations, and governing law provisions.

Gairns Consulting UK LLP reserves the right to update, modify, or replace these Terms at any time. When we make material changes, we will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page and post a notice on our homepage for a minimum of fourteen (14) days before the revised Terms take effect.

Minor editorial corrections, formatting changes, and clarifications that do not affect the substance of these Terms may be made without the 14-day advance notice period.
If any provision of these Terms is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid or unenforceable provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal, and enforceable while preserving its original intent as closely as possible.
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any separate service agreements entered into between you and Gairns Consulting UK LLP, constitute the entire agreement between you and Gairns Consulting UK LLP regarding your use of the Site and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, proposals, representations, and understandings, whether written or oral.
No waiver of any provision of these Terms by Gairns Consulting UK LLP shall be deemed a further or continuing waiver of that provision or any other provision. Gairns Consulting UK LLP's failure to assert any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.
