Achievers will not be in breach of these Terms or otherwise liable to you for any failure to perform or delay in performing its obligations under these Terms, to the extent that such failure or delay is due to any event or circumstance which is beyond Achiever’s reasonable control, including acts of God, labor disputes or other industrial disturbances, electrical or power outages, utilities or other telecommunication failures, earthquake, storms, or other elements of nature, blockages, embargoes, riots, acts or orders of government, acts of terrorism, or war, or the threat of or actual occurrence of an epidemic or pandemic (“Force Majeure Events”) or the direct or indirect effect of Force Majeure Events.
These Terms contain the entire agreement between you and Achievers.
If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable for any reason by any court of competent jurisdiction, such provision will be severed and the remainder of the provisions will continue in full force and effect as if the terms had been executed with the invalid, illegal or unenforceable provision omitted.
Any express or implied waiver to perform any obligations under these Terms will not prevent the subsequent enforcement of them.
To the fullest extent possible, a person who is not a party to these Terms has no right to enforce any term of these Terms (other than where such party is expressly stated to have such right). For the avoidance of doubt, Achievers’ affiliates shall have rights under these Terms and shall enjoy the benefit of these Terms.

If you reside in North America, you irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the province of Ontario, Canada. If you outside of North America, you irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English Courts. Nothing in this clause will limit Achiever’s right to take proceedings against you in any other court of competent jurisdiction.
Achievers may update these Terms for legal or regulatory reasons, or to reflect changes in our services or business practices, or changes to ACE. We will provide email notice of any significant changes to these Terms.
