You agree that if The University of Glasgow does not exercise or enforce, or delays in exercising or enforcing, any legal right or remedy which is contained in the Terms (or which The University of Glasgow has the benefit of under any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a formal waiver of The University of Glasgow’s rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to The University of Glasgow (and does not mean that you do not have to comply with your obligations). If The University of Glasgow does waive a default by you, The University of Glasgow will only do so in writing, and that will not mean that The University of Glasgow will automatically waive any later default by you.
This contract is between you and The University of Glasgow. A person who is not a party to the Terms has no right to rely on or enforce any of the Terms.
Each of the paragraphs of the 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.

Where the words "in writing" appear in the Terms, this includes email.
The Terms, and your relationship with The University of Glasgow under the Terms (including the subject-matter of the Terms and the formation of the contract, and any contractual or non-contractual dispute associated with your use of the Services), are governed by Scots law. You and The University of Glasgow agree that the courts of Scotland shall have non-exclusive jurisdiction to resolve any such dispute.
