Material changes to these Terms will be communicated to you via email to the address associated with your account or through a prominent notice within the Service at least thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of such changes.

3.Account Registration
To access and use the Service, you must create an Account by providing accurate, current, and complete registration information as prompted by the registration process. You represent and warrant that all information you provide during registration and at all times thereafter is truthful, accurate, and complete, and you agree to update such information promptly to maintain its accuracy.
You must be at least eighteen (18) years of age, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction of residence (whichever is greater), to create an Account and use the Service. By creating an Account, you represent and warrant that you meet this age requirement and that you have the legal capacity to enter into this Agreement. If you are registering on behalf of a legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms.
You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your Account credentials, including your username, password, and any Download Keys associated with your Account. You agree to notify Rigel Nexus immediately at security@rigelnexus.com upon becoming aware of any unauthorised use of your Account or any other breach of security. Rigel Nexus shall not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your Account credentials.
Each individual is permitted to maintain only one (1) Account. The creation of multiple accounts by the same individual, whether using different email addresses, aliases, or other means to circumvent this restriction, is strictly prohibited and constitutes a material breach of these Terms. Rigel Nexus reserves the right to terminate all duplicate accounts and any associated Subscriptions without refund.
The Service is not available to Users located in, or who are residents or nationals of, any country or territory subject to comprehensive sanctions imposed by the United Kingdom, the European Union, or the United States, including but not limited to Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, and the Crimea, Donetsk, and Luhansk regions. You represent and warrant that you are not located in, and are not a resident or national of, any such prohibited jurisdiction, and that you are not listed on any applicable sanctions or restricted party list.

Rigel Nexus reserves the right to refuse registration, suspend, or terminate any Account at any time and for any reason, including but not limited to suspected fraudulent activity, violation of these Terms, or as required by applicable law or regulatory order.

The Service is offered through four subscription tiers, each providing different levels of access to the Platform's features and capabilities:
(a) Centurion -- USD $29 per month (or USD $23 per month when billed annually at USD $276 per year). The Centurion tier includes one (1) broker connection, access to stocks and cryptocurrency markets, basic risk management tools, and community support. The AI Advisor and ML Prediction Engines are not included in this tier.

The Emperor tier includes unlimited broker connections, access to all asset classes and algorithmic trading capabilities, real-time risk management with automatic protection, white-glove support, unlimited Genius AI Advisor queries with proactive monitoring, full access to all 623 ML engines, and portfolio awareness with actionable suggestions.
All prices are stated in United States Dollars (USD). If your payment method is denominated in a different currency, the amount charged may vary due to exchange rate fluctuations and any fees imposed by your payment provider or financial institution. Rigel Nexus is not responsible for any additional charges arising from currency conversion.
Payment is processed through our authorised third-party payment processors. By subscribing to the Service, you authorise Rigel Nexus and its payment processors to charge your designated payment method for the applicable Subscription fees on a recurring basis (monthly or annually, as selected). You are responsible for ensuring that your payment method remains valid and that sufficient funds are available for each billing cycle.
Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period (monthly or annually) at the then-current Subscription fee unless you cancel your Subscription prior to the renewal date in accordance with Section 6. Rigel Nexus will attempt to charge your payment method on file on each renewal date. If payment fails, Rigel Nexus may retry the charge, suspend your access to the Service, or terminate your Subscription after a reasonable grace period.
Rigel Nexus reserves the right to modify Subscription fees at any time. Any fee increase shall take effect at the start of the next billing cycle following at least thirty (30) days' prior written notice to you via email or through the Platform. If you do not agree to a fee increase, you may cancel your Subscription before the new fees take effect. Your continued use of the Service after the fee increase takes effect constitutes your acceptance of the new pricing.
Rigel Nexus may, at its sole discretion, offer promotional pricing, discounts, or special offers from time to time. Such offers are subject to their own terms and conditions, are non-transferable, and may not be combined with other offers unless expressly stated. Rigel Nexus reserves the right to modify or withdraw any promotional offer at any time without prior notice.
5.Free Trial
Rigel Nexus offers a seven (7) day free trial period for the Centurion, Pretorian, and Champion subscription tiers ("Free Trial"). The Free Trial provides full access to all features and capabilities of the selected tier for the duration of the trial period. The Emperor tier is not eligible for a Free Trial; access to the Emperor tier requires direct engagement with the Rigel Nexus sales team.
To activate a Free Trial, you must create an Account and provide a valid payment method. No charge will be applied to your payment method during the Free Trial period. Your payment method will be verified at the time of registration but will not be billed until the Free Trial period expires.
Unless you cancel your Subscription before the expiration of the Free Trial period, your Subscription will automatically convert to a paid Subscription at the applicable rate for the tier you selected. The first charge to your payment method will occur on the day immediately following the expiration of the Free Trial period. By activating a Free Trial, you expressly consent to this automatic conversion.
You may cancel your Subscription at any time during the Free Trial period without incurring any charges. To avoid being charged, you must cancel before 23:59 UTC on the final day of the Free Trial. Cancellation instructions are provided in Section 6 of these Terms and within the Account management section of the Platform.
Each User is entitled to one (1) Free Trial per subscription tier. Rigel Nexus reserves the right to determine Free Trial eligibility at its sole discretion and to decline or revoke a Free Trial if it determines that the User has previously utilised a Free Trial for the same tier, whether through the same or a different Account. Any attempt to abuse the Free Trial offering, including the creation of multiple accounts to obtain repeated Free Trials, constitutes a material breach of these Terms.
During the Free Trial, the Service is provided "as is" and Rigel Nexus makes no guarantees regarding the availability, performance, or functionality of any specific feature. The Free Trial may be modified or discontinued at any time without prior notice.
6.Cancellation and Refunds
You may cancel your Subscription at any time through the Account management section within the Gladiator platform, by emailing billing@rigelnexus.com, or by contacting our support team. Upon cancellation, your Subscription will not renew at the end of the current billing period, but you will retain access to the Service and all features of your current tier until the end of the billing period for which you have already paid.
Upon the expiry of your current billing period following cancellation, your Account will be downgraded and you will lose access to all paid features of the Service. Your Account will not be deleted, and you may reactivate your Subscription at any time by selecting a new plan. Trading Data and account configurations may be retained for a reasonable period following cancellation to facilitate potential reactivation, subject to Rigel Nexus's data retention policies as described in the Privacy Policy.
Refund Policy for Monthly Subscriptions: Monthly Subscriptions are eligible for a full refund if the cancellation request is submitted within seven (7) calendar days of the initial charge for a new Subscription or within seven (7) calendar days of an involuntary upgrade (an upgrade imposed by Rigel Nexus due to a plan restructuring, not a voluntary upgrade by the User). After the seven (7) day period, monthly Subscription fees are non-refundable, and the User will retain access to the Service until the end of the current monthly billing period.
Refund Policy for Annual Subscriptions: Annual Subscriptions are eligible for a pro-rata refund if the cancellation request is submitted within fourteen (14) calendar days of the initial charge or the most recent annual renewal charge. The pro-rata refund shall be calculated based on the number of full calendar months remaining in the annual billing period, less any applicable administrative fees. After the fourteen (14) day period, annual Subscription fees are non-refundable, and the User will retain access to the Service until the end of the current annual billing period.
Free Trial Cancellation: If you cancel during the Free Trial period as described in Section 5, no charges will be incurred and no refund is applicable.
Refund requests must be submitted in writing to billing@rigelnexus.com and must include your Account email address, the date of the charge in question, and the reason for the refund request. Rigel Nexus will process approved refunds within fourteen (14) business days using the original payment method. If the original payment method is no longer available, Rigel Nexus will arrange an alternative refund method at its reasonable discretion.
Rigel Nexus reserves the right to refuse a refund if it reasonably determines that the User has engaged in fraudulent activity, has materially breached these Terms, or is abusing the refund process. Termination of an Account by Rigel Nexus due to a breach of these Terms does not entitle the User to a refund of any fees paid.
Nothing in this Section affects your statutory rights as a consumer under the laws of England and Wales or any other applicable jurisdiction. Where mandatory consumer protection laws provide for greater refund rights than those set forth herein, those statutory rights shall prevail.

The following are registered or unregistered trademarks of Rigel Nexus Ltd: "Gladiator", "Centurion", "Pretorian", "Champion", "Emperor", "Rigel Nexus", the Gladiator logo, and any other product or service names, slogans, or logos displayed on the Platform. You may not use any Rigel Nexus trademarks without the prior written consent of Rigel Nexus, except as reasonably necessary to refer to Rigel Nexus or its products in a manner that does not suggest endorsement or affiliation.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms and your active Subscription, Rigel Nexus grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable licence to download, install, and use the Gladiator desktop application on devices you own or control, solely for your personal or internal business use in connection with your trading activities. This licence does not include the right to: (i) modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works of the Platform; (ii) distribute, sublicence, lease, rent, loan, or otherwise transfer the Platform to any third party; (iii) use the Platform on behalf of or for the benefit of any third party; or (iv) use the Platform in any manner not expressly authorised by these Terms.

9.Platform Availability and Service Level
Rigel Nexus targets a Platform availability of 99.99% uptime, measured on a calendar-month basis, excluding periods of scheduled maintenance. This target reflects Rigel Nexus's operational commitment and engineering standards but does not constitute a guarantee, warranty, or binding service level agreement. Actual availability may vary, and Rigel Nexus shall not be liable for any failure to meet this target.
Rigel Nexus may perform scheduled maintenance on the Platform from time to time to implement updates, patches, security fixes, infrastructure improvements, or other enhancements. Rigel Nexus will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide at least twenty-four (24) hours' advance notice of scheduled maintenance through the Platform, via email, or on the Rigel Nexus status page. Wherever practicable, scheduled maintenance will be performed during periods of low market activity (e.g., weekends or outside of major market trading hours). Rigel Nexus will endeavour to minimise the duration and impact of any maintenance period.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Rigel Nexus does not guarantee that the Service will be available at all times, will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free from defects, or that any defects will be corrected within a specific timeframe. The Service may be temporarily unavailable due to emergency maintenance, security incidents, infrastructure failures, distributed denial-of-service attacks, or other circumstances beyond Rigel Nexus's reasonable control.
The Platform's ability to connect to your brokerage accounts and execute trades depends on the availability, performance, and proper functioning of third-party systems, including the APIs and infrastructure operated by Interactive Brokers, Alpaca, OANDA, Binance, and other supported brokers. Rigel Nexus is not responsible for, and makes no representations or warranties regarding, the availability, reliability, speed, latency, accuracy, or functionality of any third-party broker, exchange, data provider, or financial institution. Disruptions, outages, rate limiting, API changes, or degraded performance on the part of any third-party service may impair or prevent the functionality of the Platform, and Rigel Nexus shall have no liability for any such impairment.
In the event of a material service disruption affecting the Platform's core functionality for a continuous period exceeding twenty-four (24) hours (excluding disruptions caused by third-party broker outages, force majeure events, or scheduled maintenance), Rigel Nexus will, upon written request from affected Users, evaluate appropriate remedies on a case-by-case basis, which may include extension of the billing period or partial service credits at Rigel Nexus's sole discretion. Such remedies shall constitute your sole and exclusive remedy for any service disruption.
Rigel Nexus may, at its sole discretion, modify, update, or discontinue any feature, tool, engine, or component of the Platform at any time. While Rigel Nexus will use commercially reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of material changes, certain updates may be deployed without prior notice to address security vulnerabilities, regulatory requirements, or critical system issues.
10.Risk Disclaimer and Trading Disclosures
IMPORTANT: THIS SECTION CONTAINS CRITICAL RISK DISCLOSURES. PLEASE READ IT CAREFULLY IN ITS ENTIRETY BEFORE USING THE SERVICE. TRADING FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS INVOLVES SUBSTANTIAL RISK AND IS NOT SUITABLE FOR ALL INDIVIDUALS. YOU SHOULD CAREFULLY CONSIDER YOUR FINANCIAL SITUATION, INVESTMENT OBJECTIVES, EXPERIENCE LEVEL, AND RISK TOLERANCE BEFORE ENGAGING IN ANY TRADING ACTIVITY.
RISK OF FINANCIAL LOSS: Trading in stocks, foreign exchange (forex), cryptocurrencies, futures, options, and other financial instruments carries a high degree of risk. You may sustain a total loss of the funds deposited with your broker, and in certain circumstances (particularly with leveraged products such as forex, futures, and options), you may incur losses that exceed your initial deposit. Past performance of any trading strategy, algorithm, signal, model, or the Platform as a whole is not indicative of future results. There is no guarantee that any trading strategy or algorithmic approach will be profitable or will not result in losses.
NOT FINANCIAL ADVICE: The Service, including all Content, analytical outputs, trading signals, risk metrics, AI Advisor responses, machine learning predictions, and any other information provided through the Platform, is provided for informational and educational purposes only and does not constitute investment advice, financial advice, tax advice, legal advice, or any other form of professional advice. Rigel Nexus is not a registered investment adviser, broker-dealer, financial planner, or tax adviser in any jurisdiction. The Service does not provide personalised investment recommendations tailored to your individual circumstances.
AI AND ALGORITHMIC LIMITATIONS: The Platform employs artificial intelligence, machine learning models, and algorithmic systems to analyse market data and generate analytical outputs. These systems have inherent limitations and are not infallible. AI predictions and machine learning outputs are probabilistic in nature and may be incorrect, misleading, or inaccurate. Past accuracy of any model or algorithm does not guarantee future accuracy. Market conditions can change rapidly, and models trained on historical data may fail to perform as expected in novel or unprecedented market regimes, including but not limited to flash crashes, black swan events, regime changes, liquidity crises, or other extreme market conditions.
USER RESPONSIBILITY: You are solely and exclusively responsible for all trading decisions made through or in connection with the Platform. Rigel Nexus does not make trading decisions on your behalf, does not manage your portfolio, and does not exercise any discretion over your brokerage account. Even when the Platform's algorithmic engines generate signals, alerts, or recommendations, the ultimate decision to execute, modify, or cancel any trade rests entirely with you. You acknowledge that you are using the Platform as an informational and execution tool, and that any reliance on the Platform's outputs is at your sole risk.
LEVERAGED TRADING RISK: Certain financial instruments accessible through the Platform, including forex, futures, and options, involve the use of leverage. Leverage amplifies both potential profits and potential losses. A relatively small market movement can result in proportionally much larger changes in the value of your position. You may be required to deposit additional funds on short notice to maintain your position (margin calls), and if you fail to do so, your position may be liquidated at a loss. You should fully understand the implications of leverage before trading leveraged products.
CRYPTOCURRENCY RISK: Cryptocurrency markets are highly volatile, largely unregulated in many jurisdictions, and subject to unique risks including but not limited to: extreme price volatility, regulatory uncertainty, exchange hacking and security breaches, blockchain network congestion, smart contract vulnerabilities, liquidity risk, and the potential for total loss of value. Cryptocurrencies are not legal tender in most jurisdictions, are not backed by any government or central bank, and may not be subject to the same regulatory protections that apply to traditional financial instruments.
BROKER AND COUNTERPARTY RISK: Your funds are held by and your trades are executed through third-party brokers (such as Interactive Brokers, Alpaca, OANDA, and Binance). Rigel Nexus is not a custodian of your funds and does not hold, control, or have access to your money. The safety of your funds depends on the financial soundness, regulatory compliance, and operational integrity of your chosen broker. You should independently verify that your broker is properly regulated and that your funds are adequately protected under the applicable compensation schemes in your jurisdiction.
EXECUTION RISK: While the Platform is designed for low-latency execution, actual trade execution depends on numerous factors beyond Rigel Nexus's control, including broker processing times, network latency, market liquidity, exchange rules, order queue priority, and market conditions at the time of execution. There is no guarantee that orders will be filled at the requested price, that stop-loss orders will limit losses to the intended amount, or that algorithmic execution strategies will perform as intended in all market conditions. Slippage, partial fills, rejected orders, and execution delays may occur.
REGULATORY DISCLAIMERS: The Platform is an information and execution tool. Rigel Nexus does not operate as, and should not be construed as, a regulated investment adviser, portfolio manager, broker-dealer, commodity trading adviser, or any other regulated financial services provider. The provision of analytical tools, trading signals, AI-generated commentary, and risk metrics through the Platform does not create a fiduciary relationship or advisory relationship between Rigel Nexus and the User. You should consult with qualified and regulated financial professionals before making any investment decisions.
TAX IMPLICATIONS: Trading activity may give rise to tax obligations in your jurisdiction of residence and/or in the jurisdictions where the instruments you trade are domiciled or regulated. You are solely responsible for determining and fulfilling any tax reporting and payment obligations arising from your trading activity. Rigel Nexus does not provide tax advice and is not responsible for any tax liabilities incurred by you.
HYPOTHETICAL PERFORMANCE: Any backtested, simulated, or hypothetical performance results presented within the Platform or in Rigel Nexus marketing materials have inherent limitations. Hypothetical results do not represent actual trading and may not account for the impact of certain market factors, including liquidity constraints, slippage, transaction costs, and the emotional factors that affect actual trading decisions. No representation is made that any account will or is likely to achieve profits or losses similar to those shown in any hypothetical performance presentation.
BY USING THE SERVICE, YOU EXPRESSLY ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT: (I) YOU HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THIS RISK DISCLAIMER IN ITS ENTIRETY; (II) YOU ARE AWARE OF THE RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH TRADING FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS; (III) YOU ARE FINANCIALLY ABLE TO BEAR THE RISK OF LOSS OF YOUR ENTIRE INVESTMENT; (IV) YOU UNDERSTAND THAT PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT INDICATIVE OF FUTURE RESULTS; AND (V) YOU ACCEPT FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR ALL TRADING DECISIONS YOU MAKE IN CONNECTION WITH THE PLATFORM.

IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID ANY FEES TO RIGEL NEXUS, THE MAXIMUM AGGREGATE LIABILITY SHALL BE ONE HUNDRED POUNDS STERLING (GBP 100).
WITHOUT LIMITING THE FOREGOING, THE RIGEL NEXUS PARTIES SHALL HAVE NO LIABILITY WHATSOEVER FOR ANY LOSSES, DAMAGES, OR COSTS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO: (I) YOUR TRADING DECISIONS, WHETHER OR NOT BASED ON INFORMATION, SIGNALS, OR OUTPUTS PROVIDED BY THE PLATFORM; (II) THE PERFORMANCE, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, OR AVAILABILITY OF ANY THIRD-PARTY BROKER, EXCHANGE, DATA PROVIDER, OR FINANCIAL INSTITUTION; (III) FLUCTUATIONS IN THE VALUE OF ANY FINANCIAL INSTRUMENT; (IV) MARKET CONDITIONS, INCLUDING VOLATILITY, ILLIQUIDITY, OR MARKET DISRUPTIONS; (V) THE FAILURE OF ANY ALGORITHM, MODEL, OR AI SYSTEM TO PREDICT, DETECT, OR RESPOND TO MARKET MOVEMENTS; OR (VI) ANY ACTION OR INACTION BY YOUR BROKER IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR TRADES.
The Rigel Nexus Parties shall not be liable for any failure to perform, or delay in performing, any obligation under these Terms where such failure or delay results from a Force Majeure Event. "Force Majeure Event" means any event beyond the reasonable control of Rigel Nexus, including but not limited to: acts of God, natural disasters, pandemics, epidemics, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government actions or regulations, sanctions, embargoes, labour disputes, power failures, telecommunications failures, internet outages, cyberattacks, exchange outages, broker system failures, or any other event that prevents Rigel Nexus from fulfilling its obligations hereunder.
Certain jurisdictions do not allow the limitation or exclusion of liability for incidental or consequential damages, or do not allow limitations on implied warranties. If these laws apply to you, some or all of the above limitations, exclusions, or disclaimers may not apply to you, and you may have additional rights under the applicable laws of your jurisdiction. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits Rigel Nexus's liability for: (i) death or personal injury caused by its negligence; (ii) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or (iii) any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under the laws of England and Wales.
12.Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Rigel Nexus and its directors, officers, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns (the "Indemnified Parties") from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, proceedings, losses, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements) arising out of or in connection with:

14.Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms, and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter, formation, or enforceability (including non-contractual disputes or claims), shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales, without regard to any conflict of law principles that would result in the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction.
Subject to the mandatory arbitration provision below, the courts of England and Wales shall have exclusive jurisdiction to hear and determine any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms. You irrevocably consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales for such purposes and waive any objection to the exercise of jurisdiction over you by such courts on the grounds of venue, forum non conveniens, or any similar ground.
Mandatory Arbitration for Claims Under GBP 50,000: Any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Service where the total amount in dispute is less than fifty thousand pounds sterling (GBP 50,000), excluding claims for injunctive or other equitable relief, shall be resolved exclusively through binding arbitration administered by the London Court of International Arbitration (LCIA) under the LCIA Arbitration Rules in effect at the time the arbitration is commenced. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator appointed in accordance with the LCIA Rules. The seat of arbitration shall be London, England. The language of the arbitration shall be English. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding on the parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Class Action Waiver: TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, YOU AGREE THAT ANY DISPUTE RESOLUTION PROCEEDINGS, WHETHER IN ARBITRATION OR IN COURT, WILL BE CONDUCTED SOLELY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT IN A CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. YOU EXPRESSLY WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, OR ANY OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. If any court or arbitrator determines that the class action waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or unenforceable for any reason, or that an arbitration can proceed on a class basis, then the arbitration provision set forth above shall be deemed null and void in its entirety, and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive relief, specific performance, or any other form of equitable relief from any court of competent jurisdiction at any time, without first resorting to arbitration, to prevent imminent or ongoing harm, to protect intellectual property rights, or to enforce confidentiality obligations.
Pre-Arbitration Dispute Resolution: Before initiating any arbitration or court proceedings, the complaining party shall first attempt to resolve the dispute informally by sending a written notice of dispute to the other party describing the nature of the dispute and the relief sought. Rigel Nexus's notice address for this purpose is legal@rigelnexus.com. The parties shall use good faith efforts to resolve the dispute within thirty (30) days of receipt of the notice. If the dispute is not resolved within this period, either party may proceed with arbitration or litigation as provided herein.
Nothing in this Section shall limit or restrict Rigel Nexus's right to take action against you in the courts of any jurisdiction where you are domiciled or where your assets are located, if such action is necessary to enforce an arbitration award, a court judgment, or any other remedy obtained under these Terms.
15.General Provisions

Severability: If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction or an arbitrator, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal, and enforceable while preserving the original intent of the parties, or if such modification is not possible, shall be severed from these Terms. The invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability of any provision shall not affect the validity, legality, or enforceability of the remaining provisions of these Terms, which shall continue in full force and effect.
Waiver: The failure of Rigel Nexus to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. No waiver of any provision of these Terms shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by an authorised representative of Rigel Nexus. Any waiver of any provision of these Terms shall be effective only in the specific instance and for the specific purpose for which it is given and shall not be deemed a continuing or future waiver of such provision or a waiver of any other provision.

Force Majeure: Neither party shall be liable for any delay or failure to perform any obligation under these Terms if such delay or failure is caused by a Force Majeure Event as defined in Section 11. The affected party shall use reasonable efforts to mitigate the impact of the Force Majeure Event and shall promptly notify the other party of the occurrence of such event and its expected duration. If a Force Majeure Event continues for a period exceeding ninety (90) consecutive days, either party may terminate these Terms upon written notice to the other party.
Third-Party Rights: Except as expressly provided herein, these Terms do not confer any rights on any person or party (other than the parties to these Terms and, where applicable, their successors and permitted assigns) pursuant to the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 or any similar legislation in any jurisdiction.
