19. GENERAL TERMS
Force Majeure. Under no circumstances shall the Far North Queensland Hospital Foundation or its licensors or suppliers be held liable for any delay or failure in performance resulting directly or indirectly from an event beyond its reasonable control.

Waiver. If we fail to insist that you perform any obligations under these Terms, that will not mean that you do not have to comply with your obligations. If we do not enforce our rights against you, or if we delay in doing so, that will not mean that we have waived such rights. If we do waive a failure or breach by you, we will only do so in writing and that will not mean that we automatically waive any future failure of breach by you.

Severability. Each provision of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any provision is unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

Survival. Any provision of these Terms that by its nature is reasonably intended to survive beyond termination of these Terms shall survive.

Third-Party Beneficiaries. You agree that, except as otherwise expressly provided in these Terms, there shall be no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms. This means that unless we say otherwise in these Terms, no one other than you can benefit from the contract set forth between you and us in these Terms.

Entire Agreement. These Terms (and all terms and conditions incorporated herein) constitute the entire agreement between you and the Far North Queensland Hospital Foundation and take precedence over any prior agreements between you and the Far North Queensland Hospital Foundation relating to the Platform, except as expressly provided herein.

Assignment and Succession. You may not assign or delegate any rights or licenses granted to you by these Terms. The Far North Queensland Hospital Foundation may assign or delegate any rights or licenses granted to us by these Terms without restriction. These Terms bind and inure to the benefit of your and our successors and those to which you or we have assigned legal responsibilities.

Relationship Between You and Us. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employee/employer relationship is intended or created by these Terms. Put another way, the Far North Queensland Hospital Foundation is an independent contractor, and you agree that the Far North Queensland Hospital Foundation is not responsible for any information you convey, in any manner, and has no control over any actions you take or statements that you make.

Electronic Agreement. You agree that these Terms, and any other agreements made by and between you and us, in electronic form are as legally binding as if made in physical written form.

Section Titles. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
