Any claims must be brought within the applicable limitation period under the governing law, typically one (1) to two (2) years depending on the nature of the claim and jurisdiction.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. The failure of ALAAWAH to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. No waiver of any provision of these Terms shall be effective unless in writing and signed by an authorized representative of ALAAWAH. A waiver of any breach or default shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach or default.
These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and ALAAWAH regarding your use of the platform and supersede all prior or contemporaneous agreements, representations, warranties, and understandings. We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time, in our sole discretion, with or without notice. Material changes will be communicated through reasonable means, such as email notification or prominent notice on our website. Your continued use of the platform after any changes constitutes acceptance of the modified Terms. If you do not agree to the modified Terms, you must immediately stop using our services and terminate your account. No other modifications to these Terms will be effective unless in writing and signed by both parties.
We may offer beta, experimental, or preview features that are not fully tested or supported. These features are provided 'AS IS' without any warranties and may be discontinued at any time without notice.

For Quebec residents, certain consumer protection laws may apply, and you may have additional rights under the Quebec Consumer Protection Act. Nothing in these Terms limits your rights under applicable Canadian consumer protection legislation.
We may store and process your data in Canada and other jurisdictions where we or our service providers operate. When transferring personal information outside Canada, we ensure appropriate safeguards are in place as required by PIPEDA and applicable provincial privacy laws. You consent to such transfers, provided they comply with applicable privacy legislation. We will notify you of any material changes to our data storage or processing locations and provide you with the opportunity to withdraw consent where legally required.
