20. Waiver
Any delay or failure by MePapr to exercise or enforce any right or provision under these Terms of Use, to which we may be entitled, shall not, in any event, be construed as a waiver of that right or provision at any other time.

19. Severability
If any provision of these Terms of Use or our Privacy Policy is found to be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, then that provision shall be deemed severable from the remaining provisions and shall not affect the validity or enforceability of any remaining provisions.

20. Waiver
Any delay or failure by MePapr to exercise or enforce any right or provision under these Terms of Use, to which we may be entitled, shall not, in any event, be construed as a waiver of that right or provision at any other time. You irrevocably waive all rights to seek injunctive or other equitable relief.
21. Exclusion of Third Party Rights
These Terms of Use are for the benefit of you and us, and are not intended to benefit any third party or be enforceable by any third party and the Contracts (Rights of Third Parties) Act 1999 shall not apply to them.
