The failure of Olympic School to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.
If any provision of these Terms of Use is found by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, the parties nevertheless agree that the court should endeavor to give effect to the parties’ intentions as reflected in the provision, and the other provisions of these Terms of Use remain in full force and effect.
