*Note particularly clause 13 (Limitation of Liability)*

1. BASIS OF CONTRACT

1.1. Each Order Form provided to the Customer constitutes an invitation to treat by Sport:80. 

1.2. Each Order constitutes an offer by the Customer for the provision of Services (including, as applicable, access to the Software). Following receipt of an Order, Sport:80 may, at its option, submit an order acknowledgement to the Customer, which shall form a contract subject to the terms of the applicable Order Form and these Conditions (“Contract”), and the Contract shall come into existence immediately upon sending of the order acknowledgement (“Start Date”). 

1.3. Should the Order (or any other correspondence from the Customer) contradict in any way the Order Form or any of these Conditions (“Contradictory Terms”), such Contradictory Terms shall not be incorporated unless and to the extent that a revised Order Form is issued by Sport:80 incorporating any of the Contradictory Terms.

13.9.2. for any indirect, special or consequential loss or damage;

13.9.4. for the consequences of any other acts or omissions of the Customer or the Customer Personnel.

13.10.

13.11. Save for the obligations set out in clause 13.10, in no event shall Sport:80 be liable for any loss, destruction, alteration or disclosure of Customer Content caused by any third party (except those third parties sub-contracted by Sport:80 to perform services related to maintenance and back-up).

14. TERM AND TERMINATION

14.1. The Contract shall commence on the Start Date and continue for the Initial Term stated in the relevant Order Form (or until performance of Services has been completed) and each Term Extension (the “Term”) unless terminated in accordance with its terms. 

14.2. Without prejudicing any other right or remedy available to it, either party may terminate the Contract with immediate effect by giving written notice to the other party if:

14.7. Where Sport:80 acquires the right to terminate or suspend Services under the Contract pursuant to this clause 14, such right shall extend to any other contracts concluded between the parties incorporating these Conditions, whether prior or subsequent to the Contract.

17. ASSIGNMENT

17.1. The Customer may not assign, sub-contract, sub-license, charge or otherwise deal in any other manner with all or any of its rights or obligations under the Contract, nor provide any of the Services directly or indirectly to third parties, without the consent of Sport:80, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld or delayed.  The Customer shall not allow any of its rights under the Contract to become the subject of any charge, lien or encumbrance.

20.1.1. either party shall give to the other written notice of the Dispute, setting out its nature and full particulars (a “Dispute Notice”), together with relevant supporting documents. On service of the Dispute Notice, the parties shall attempt in good faith to resolve the Dispute; and

20.1.2. if the parties are for any reason unable to resolve the Dispute within 20 Business Days from service of the Dispute Notice, the parties will attempt to settle it by mediation in accordance with the CEDR Model Mediation Procedure. Unless otherwise agreed between the parties, the mediator shall be nominated by CEDR Solve. To initiate the mediation, a party must serve notice in writing (an “ADR Notice”) to the other party to the Dispute, requesting mediation. A copy of the ADR Notice should be sent to CEDR Solve. The mediation will start not later than 10 Business Days after the date of the ADR Notice.

20.2. If the Dispute is not resolved within 1 month of the mediator’s appointment, then either party may commence court proceedings, but provided that nothing in this clause 20.2 shall prevent either party from either continuing with any means of alternative dispute resolution as may be agreed in writing from time to time, or seeking an injunction or other interim relief at any time if it reasonably believes such action is necessary to prevent irreparable damage.

21. CHANGE PROCEDURE

21.1. The Customer Manager and the Sport:80 Manager shall endeavour to meet (by telephone or alternative digital means (e.g. MS Teams) in person) at least once every three (3) months to discuss matters relating to the Services (including the Software). Where a party identifies a need to change the Contract, they may at any time request such a change.

21.2. The party proposing the change shall notify the other party in writing specifying in as much detail as is reasonably practicable the nature of the requested change (“Change Request”).

21.3. Where the Customer has requested the change, Sport:80 shall, as soon as reasonably practicable, provide a written estimate to the Customer of:

21.3.1. the likely time required to implement the change;

21.3.2. any necessary variations to the Charges arising from the change;

21.3.3. any necessary variations to the resources of either party arising from the change; and

21.3.4. any other impact of the change on the hardware/services provided under the Contract.

21.4. Unless both parties consent to a Change Request there shall be no change to the Services and any other terms of the Contract.

22. GENERAL

22.1. Entire agreement.

22.1.1. The Contract constitutes the entire agreement between the parties and supersedes and extinguishes all previous agreements, promises, assurances, warranties, representations and understandings between them, whether written or oral, relating to its subject matter.

22.1.2. Neither party shall have any remedy in respect of any statement, representation, assurance or warranty (whether made innocently or negligently) that is not set out in these Conditions.

22.2. Third party rights.

22.2.1. A natural or legal person who is not a party to the Contract shall have no rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any of its terms.

22.4. Waiver.

22.4.1. A waiver of any right is only effective if it is in writing and shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any subsequent breach or Default. No failure or delay by a party in exercising any right or remedy under the Contract or by law shall constitute a waiver of that or any other right or remedy, nor preclude or restrict its further exercise. No single or partial exercise of such right or remedy shall preclude or restrict the further exercise of that or any other right or remedy. Unless specifically provided otherwise, rights arising under the Contract are cumulative and do not exclude rights provided by law.

22.5. Severance.

22.5.1. If any provision or part-provision of the Contract is or becomes invalid, illegal or unenforceable, it shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, legal and enforceable. If such modification is not possible, it shall be deemed deleted, but that shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the rest of the Contract.

22.5.2. If any provision or part-provision of the Contract is deemed deleted under clause 22.5.1 above, the parties shall negotiate in good faith to agree a replacement provision that, to the greatest extent possible, achieves the intended commercial result of the original provision.

22.6. No partnership or agency.

22.6.1. Nothing in the Contract is intended to, or shall be deemed to, constitute a partnership or joint venture of any kind between the parties, nor constitute any party the agent of the other party for any purpose.
