17.3 You agree that Soltus Group may provide you with notices, including those regarding changes to the Terms, by email, regular mail, website updates or postings on the Services.

17.4 The relationship between Soltus Group and you under this Agreement is that of a custoemr / potential customer or an independent contractor.

17.8 You agree that if Soltus Group does not exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy which is contained in the Terms (or which Soltus Group has the benefit of under any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a formal waiver of Soltus Group’s rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to Soltus Group.
