If we fail to comply with these orders, we are responsible for the loss or damage you suffer that is a foreseeable result of our breaking this rule or our failing to use reasonable care, skill and attention to the delivery process. Loss or damage is foreseeable if either it is obvious that it will happen or if, at the time the order was made, both we and you knew it might happen.

Other important terms you should be aware of:
No other person shall have any rights to enforce any of its terms. Neither of us will need to get the agreement of any other person or party to end the order or make any changes to these terms.
If a court finds part of this contract illegal, the rest will continue in force. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful, the remaining paragraphs will.
Even if we delay in enforcing this arrangement, 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 order, that will not mean that you do not have to do those things and it will not prevent us taking steps against you at a later date. For example, if you miss a payment we do not chase you. But, we continue to provide the products/items, we can still require you to make the payment at a later date.
Which laws apply to this order and where you may bring legal proceedings. These terms are governed by English law and you can bring legal proceedings in respect of the products/items in the English courts.
Alternative dispute resolution:
Alternative dispute resolution is a process where an independent body considers the facts of a dispute and seeks to resolve it, without having to go to court. If you are not happy with how we have handled any complaint, we suggest you contact the CEDR (Centre for Effective Dispute Resolution) via their website at http://www.cedr.com/consumer in order for the dispute to be resolved prior to taking court action. CEDR will not charge you for making a complaint and if you are not satisfied with the outcome you can still bring legal proceedings.
