13.2 Jurisdiction (if you are a consumer). If you are a consumer, you submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts to settle any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms or their subject matter or formation, except where, by law, such dispute or claim must be brought in the jurisdiction in which you are domiciled, or where the relevant law contains mandatory provisions that override such exclusive jurisdiction. This clause 13.2 shall not apply if you are a business.
13.3 Jurisdiction (if you are a business).

13.5 Nobody else has any rights under these Terms. These Terms are between you and us. No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of these Terms. We shall not need to obtain your agreement or permission in order to end or make any changes to these Terms.
13.6 If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these Terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.
13.7 Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, we can still enforce it later. If we do not insist immediately that you do anything you are required to do under these Terms, or if we delay in taking steps against you in respect of your breaking these Terms, this will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment and we do not chase you but we continue to provide the Services, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
