8. GENERAL
8.1 These Terms may be amended, varied and/or modified by Spur Group at any time and such amendment, variation and/or modification shall be effective immediately upon posting of the amended, varied and/or modified Terms on the Website. Accordingly, the continued use by a Bearer of the Gift Card shall be deemed to be the Bearer’s acceptance of any such modified Terms.
8.2 These Terms shall comply with, and will be subject to, any peremptory provisions of the CPA and the regulations promulgated thereunder, which are deemed to be incorporated therein (“Peremptory Provisions”). In the event of any conflict between these Terms and the Peremptory Provisions, the latter shall prevail. Furthermore, no term or condition of these Terms is intended to breach any Peremptory Provisions. Any breach of any such Peremptory Provision shall be governed by the provisions of clause 8.4 mutatis mutandis (i.e., subject to changing those things which need to be changed).
8.3 This document, together with the Gift Card Terms and any Purchase and Recharge terms and conditions, contains the entire agreement between the parties in relation to the subject matter hereof. Save as contemplated in these Terms (including clause 8.1 above) no alteration, cancellation, variation of, or addition hereto will be of any force or effect.
8.4 Each sentence, paragraph, term, clause and provision of these Terms and any portion thereof shall be considered severable and if, for any reason, any such sentence, paragraph, term, clause or provision is held to be invalid, contrary to, or in conflict with any applicable present or future law or regulation (including, without limitation, the CPA and any Regulations thereto) or in terms of a final, binding judgment issued by any court, it shall to that extent be deemed not to form part hereof and shall not impair the operation of, or have any effect upon such other sentence, paragraph, term, clause or provision hereof as may otherwise remain valid or intelligible, which shall continue to be given full force and effect and bind the parties hereto. If any provision of these terms and conditions is found by any Court to be unfair as contemplated in Regulation 44 to the CPA, then that provision will apply to the maximum extent permitted under the CPA and will further be governed by the provisions of this clause 8.4 mutatis mutandis.
