Linking to or interacting with the Services
Users may link to the Services, provided this is done in a fair and legal manner, and does not damage, diminish or take any unfair advantage of Succulents Network reputation. The Services must not be ‘framed’ on or within any other website. Any service that links to or otherwise interacts with the Services must (i) not scrape the Materials from our pages, databases or feeds and reuse for its own or public use, and (ii) not imply that Succulents Network is endorsing its products or services.

Succulents Network has no control over the contents of those websites or resources, and accepts no responsibility for them or for any loss or damage that may arise from any use of them. The inclusion on the Services of any links to third party websites or content is not an indication that Succulents Network endorses or approves of those third party sites or content. Subject to the section above entitled “Limitation of Liability”, we accept no liability of any kind for any information, products or services provided in or through any third party websites or content.
The Services may include certain features, functionality and/or content that may be hosted, administered, supplied by or operated by third party service providers, such as social, community and public discussion areas, photo and video galleries, blogs, auctions, shopping and payment processing. These service providers may require that you agree to their additional terms and conditions and rules. Your compliance with any such additional terms and conditions and rules is solely your responsibility and will have no effect on your continuing obligation to comply with these Terms of Use.

Succulents Network reserves the right to revise, remove or modify these Terms of Use at any time and for any reason. The provisions contained in these Terms of Use may also be superseded by provisions or notices published elsewhere on the Services, as applicable. All such revisions, removals and modifications shall be binding upon all Users, from the date on which they are made, in relation to the use of the Services by those Users. Your continued use of the Service shall constitute on-going acceptance of these Terms of Use, as updated from time-to-time. Users should review these Terms of Use regularly, in order to familiarise themselves with any revisions that may have been made.
Succulents Network reserves the right to post, from time to time, additional terms and conditions that apply to specific parts of the Services including without limitation competitions, prize draws and promotions.

Should any portion of these Terms of Use for any reason be declared invalid or unenforceable by a court of a competent jurisdiction, that portion shall be deemed to be deleted without affecting the remaining portions.
No Waiver
Our failure to enforce any part of these Terms of Use shall not constitute a waiver of our right to later enforce that or any other part of these Terms of Use. Waiver of compliance in any particular instance does not mean that we will waive compliance in the future. Any waiver of compliance with these Terms of Use shall not be binding upon Succulents Network, unless in writing and executed by an authorised representative by Succulents Network.
