The failure of Blinq to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms of Use does not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. If any provision of these terms is held by a court of law to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be deemed severable from these terms and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. This is the entire agreement between you and Blinq relating to the subject matter herein and may not be modified except in writing, signed by both parties, or by a change by Blinq to these Terms of Use posted on the Site or the App. Blinq may deliver notice to you under these Terms of Use by means of electronic mail, a general notice on the Site, or first class U.S. mail to your address on record in Blinq's account information.
