GENERAL LEGAL TERMS
The Terms of Use and Sale, along with the Privacy Policy and the Shipping/Refund Policy constitute the whole legal agreement between you and RIDE 1UP and govern your use of the Services and purchase of Products (but excluding any Products which RIDE 1UP may provide to you under a separate written agreement), and completely replace any prior agreements between you and RIDE 1UP in relation to the Services, or RIDE 1UP Products.
You acknowledge and agree that the form and nature of the Services, which RIDE 1UP provides, may change from time to time with or without prior notice to you.
As part of RIDE 1UP’s continuing innovation, you acknowledge and agree that RIDE 1UP may stop (permanently or temporarily) providing the Services to you or to users generally at RIDE 1UP’s sole discretion, without prior notice to you. You may stop using the Services at any time.

You agree that if RIDE 1UP does not exercise or enforce any legal right or remedy which is contained in the Terms (or which RIDE 1UP has the benefit of under any applicable law), this will not be taken to be a formal waiver of RIDE 1UP’s rights and that those rights or remedies will still be available to RIDE 1UP.
