These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and other posted policies on the Sites, together represent the entire agreement between you and Clearlake relating to the use of and access to the Sites, and any Content made available through the Sites. Failure of Clearlake to act on or enforce any provision of these Terms shall not be construed as a waiver of that provision or any other of these Terms. No waiver by Clearlake of any right under or term or provision of these Terms will be deemed a waiver of any other right, term or provision of these Terms at that time or a waiver of that or any other right, term or provision of these Terms at any other time. The section titles in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.
