2.22.2 Where we provide goods or without specific charge to you, then it (or they) is deemed to be provided free of charge, and not to be associated with any other goods for which a charge is made. Accordingly, there is neither contractual nor other obligation upon us in respect of those goods or that service.
2.22.3 If any term or provision of these Terms is at any time held by any jurisdiction to be void, invalid or unenforceable, then it shall be treated as changed or reduced, only to the extent minimally necessary to bring it within the laws of that jurisdiction and to prevent it from being void and it shall be binding in that changed or reduced form. Subject to that, each provision shall be interpreted as severable and shall not in any way affect any other of these Terms.
2.22.4 The rights and obligations of the parties set out in these Terms shall pass to any permitted successor in title.
