a “Clause” is a reference to a Clause to these terms and conditions;
the word “including” (and its derivations) must be construed as being for illustration or emphasis only and not as limiting the generality of any preceding words;
the word “other” must not be construed as being limited by the context in which it appears or the words that precede it where a wider construction is possible;
any “person” includes any assignee, transferee, successor-in-title, delegate or appointee of that person (but, in the case of you or us, only permitted assignees or transferees). It also includes any individual, company or other body corporate, any state or state agency or any unincorporated body, association, trust, joint venture, consortium or partnership (whether or not having separate legal personality);
a “regulation” includes any regulation, rule, official directive, request or guideline (whether or not having the force of law) of any governmental, intergovernmental or supranational body, agency, department or of any regulatory, self-regulatory or other authority or organisation;
a provision of law is a reference to that provision as amended or re-enacted;
a time of day is a reference to local time in London, United Kingdom; and
Clause headings are for ease of reference only.
