12.7 Neither TeamRakyat nor Seller shall be liable for non-performance, error, interruption or delay in the performance of its obligations under these Conditions (or any part thereof) or for any inaccuracy, unreliability or unsuitability of the Platform’s and/or Services’ contents if this is due, in whole or in part, directly or indirectly to an event or failure which is beyond TeamRakyat’s or Seller’s reasonable control.
12.8 Any notice required or permitted to be given by either party to the other under these Conditions shall be in writing addressed, if to TeamRakyat, to its registered office or principal place of business and if to the Buyer, to the address stipulated in the relevant order.
12.9 Unless the context otherwise requires, any term or expression which is defined in or given a particular meaning by the provisions of International Commercial Terms published by the International Chamber of Commerce shall have the same meaning in these Conditions but if there is any conflict between the provisions of Incoterms and these Conditions, the latter shall prevail.
12.10 No waiver by TeamRakyat of any breach of the Contract by the Buyer shall be considered as a waiver of any subsequent breach of the same or any other provision.

12.11 If any provision of these Conditions is held by any competent authority to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable in whole or in part the validity of the other provisions of these Conditions and the remainder of the provision in question shall not be affected thereby.

Any award by the arbitration tribunal shall be final and binding upon the parties.

12.16 TeamRakyat may, through the Platform or by such other method of notification as TeamRakyat may designate, vary the terms and conditions of these Terms & Conditions of Sale, such variation to take effect on the date TeamRakyat specifies through the above means. If Buyer uses the Platform after such date, Buyer is deemed to have accepted such variation. If Buyer do not accept the variation, Buyer must stop access or using the Platform and terminate these Terms & Conditions of Sale.
12.17 Any typographical, clerical or other error or omission in any acceptance, invoice or other document on Seller’s part shall be subject to correction without any liability on Seller’s part.
12.18 In the event that these Conditions are executed or translated in any language other than English (“Foreign Language Version”), the English language version of these Conditions shall govern and shall take precedence over the Foreign Language Version.
12.19 These Conditions shall constitute the entire agreement between Buyer and Seller relating to the subject matter hereof and supersedes and replaces in full all prior understandings, communications and agreements with respect to the subject matter hereof.
12.20 TeamRakyat reserves the right to delegate or subcontract the performance of any of its functions in connection with the performance of its obligations under these Conditions and reserves the right to use any service providers, subcontractors and/or agents on such terms as TeamRakyat deems appropriate.
