17. IN-APP PURCHASES AND WITHDRAWAL RIGHTS

17.1. Our Platforms may offer in-app purchases, including virtual items, features or other digital content (together, "App Content"). Where available, you may purchase a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable right to use such App Content within our Apps using approved payment methods provided via the relevant app store or platform. All purchases are processed by the applicable app store or third-party platform and are subject to their terms and conditions. App Content has no monetary value, is not a means of payment, cannot be redeemed for cash or other value and may not be transferred, sold or exchanged except where expressly permitted within the functionality of the Platforms.

17.2. All purchases are final and non-refundable, except where required by applicable law or the rules of the relevant app store.

18.1. No Waiver. Even if we delay in enforcing this contract, 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 contract, 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.

18.2. Governing Law and Jurisdiction. These Terms are governed by laws of the Republic of Cyprus (including non-contractual disputes or claims) and legal proceedings in respect of these Terms and our Platforms shall be dealt with exclusively by the courts of Cyprus.

18.3. Severability. If any provision of these Terms and Conditions is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the relevant provision shall be deemed modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid, and the invalidity of such provision will not affect the validity of the remaining provisions of these Terms and Conditions which will remain in full force and effect.

18.4. Equitable Remedies. Without prejudice to any other rights or remedies that we may have, you acknowledge and agree that damages alone would not be an adequate remedy for any breach of these Terms by you. Accordingly, we shall be entitled to the remedies of injunction, specific performance or other equitable relief for any threatened or actual breach of these Terms.

18.5. Class Action and Opt-out. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you and we agree that each claim arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the use of our Platforms shall be brought in an individual capacity only and not as a claimant or class member in any purported class, collective or representative proceeding.

You and we expressly waive any right to file or participate in a class action or to seek relief on a class or representative basis. The court shall not consolidate more than one person's claims or preside over any form of class, collective or representative proceeding, except where required by applicable law.

This Class Action Waiver shall not apply where it is prohibited or unenforceable under applicable law.

You may opt out of this Class Action Waiver by sending a written notice to us within 45 (forty-five) days of accepting these Terms (or, where applicable, within 45 days of accepting an updated version introducing this clause). Your notice must clearly state that you wish to opt out of the Class Action Waiver and must include sufficient information to identify you, such as your name, address, email address and any relevant account identifiers.

If you opt out of this Class Action Waiver, this will not affect the applicability of the other provisions of these Terms.
