If any provision of the Privacy Policy or these Terms of Use is held by a court or other tribunal of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable for any reason, such provision shall be eliminated or limited to the minimum extent such that the remaining provisions of the Privacy Policy and these Terms of Use will continue in full force and effect.
