Each Portfolio Page and Entry will have information and other content in respect of their respective collectibles (collectively across all collectibles, the “Collectible Content”), which may include portfolio information, collectible descriptions, Collector commentaries, images, certification information, grading information, historical ownership information, provenance information, public transaction information, offers/expressions of interest and other collectible-related information.

15.2 Severability: If any provision in these Terms is at any time unenforceable or invalid for any reason it will be severable from the remainder of these Terms, and, in its application at that time, these Terms will be construed as though such provision was not contained herein and the remainder will continue in full force and effect and be construed as if these Terms had been entered into without the invalid or unenforceable provision.

No failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any right, remedy, power or privilege arising from these Terms will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof; nor will any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege hereunder preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, remedy, power or privilege.

The parties irrevocably submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the Province of British Columbia sitting in Vancouver for any actions or proceedings arising out of or relating to the Services or the enforcement of these Terms. However, you agree that nothing in these Terms precludes our application for injunctive remedies or other urgent legal relief in any jurisdiction.
