LGE reserves the right, in its sole discretion and with immediate effect, and without any liability, to terminate the User’s membership and access to all or any part of the Website and Services without prior notice or liability to the User; without limitation, LGE may do so if the User submits User Content that is infringing or otherwise in violation of this Agreement. In the event of termination, the provisions of this Agreement that are intended to survive such termination shall remain unaffected including, without limitation, Clause 1 (Operator and Definitions), Clause 2.6, Clause 2.8, Clause 3 (Duties of User), Clause 4 (Intellectual Property Rights), Clause 6 (Disclaimer), Clause 7 (Confidentiality), Clause 12 (Governing Law) and Clause 14 (General). These terms and conditions together with the Privacy Policy and other legal notices submitted by LGE on the Website constitute the entire agreement between the User and LGE regarding the use of the Website and the Services, except as may be additionally set forth in separate terms and conditions concerning the use of certain of the Services, and supersedes all prior agreements and understandings, between the User and LGE, whether written or oral, with respect thereto. The failure of LGE to exercise any of its rights under this Agreement shall not be considered a waiver of such rights. If any provision of this Agreement is considered unlawful or void, it shall not affect the validity and enforceability of other provisions of this Agreement. A failure of LGE to insist upon the performance of one or more of the terms of this Agreement shall not be deemed to be a waiver of its rights to enforce such terms, or of any rights or remedies LGE may have in subsequent similar situations. It is the User’s responsibility to review these terms and conditions and the Privacy Policy regularly to ensure that the User is up to date as to any changes in these terms and conditions and the Privacy Policy.
