Our liability if something goes wrong‍

We are responsible to you for foreseeable loss caused by us

If we fail to comply with these terms, we are responsible for loss you suffer if it is a foreseeable result of our breaking these terms or our failing to use reasonable care and skill. Loss is foreseeable if it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time you accepted these terms, both we and you knew it might happen.

We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so

This includes liability for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

We are not liable for business losses

Snugg is for personal use. If you use Snugg for any commercial, business or resale purpose we will have no liability to you for any loss of profit, loss of business, business interruption, or loss of business opportunity.

Changes to these terms

We may need to change these terms to reflect changes in law or best practice or to deal with additional features which we introduce. 

If we make changes that are clearly in your favour, or really don’t matter, we will tell you once we have made them. We will give you at least 30 days’ notice of any change.

If you don’t agree to the changes, you can let us know and we will close your account. 

General

We may transfer this agreement to someone else

You need our consent to transfer your rights to someone else 

You may only transfer your rights or your obligations under these terms to another person if we agree in writing.

No rights for third parties 

This agreement does not give rise to any rights under the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 to enforce any term of this agreement. 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 this contract, that does not mean that you do not have to do those things.
