W. No Waiver
No delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any breach or default hereunder shall impair any such right or remedy nor be construed as a waiver of any such breach or default or of any similar breach or default thereafter occurring, nor shall any single or partial exercise thereof preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right or remedy. No waiver (or consecutive waivers) of any single breach or default shall operate or be construed as a waiver of any subsequent breach or default.

From time to time, accountable may pay penalties or waive some of our rights, as defined in these Terms. This doesn't mean ACCOUNTABLE waives its rights in any other circumstances, and shouldn't be interpreted as an indicator of future behaviour.
X. Additional Terms for Additional Services
