Atelier VFX may at any time, terminate your use of the Site if:
(a) you have breached any provision of these Terms of Use (or have acted in a manner which clearly shows that you do not intend to, or are unable to comply with the provisions of the Terms of Use);
(b) Atelier VFX is required to do so by law (for example, where the provision of the Site to you is, or becomes, unlawful);

When these Terms of Use come to an end, all of the legal rights, obligations and liabilities that you and Atelier VFX have benefited from, been subject to (or which have accrued over time while the Terms of Use have been in force) or which are expressed to continue indefinitely, shall be unaffected by such termination.

14. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Atelier VFX and its successors and assigns, and any of their respective officers, directors, employees, members, agents, representatives, licensors, advertisers, and suppliers from any liability, loss, claim, and expense (including reasonable legal fees) related to: (a) your violation of these Terms of Use; and (b) your use of the Site.

If any provision of these Terms of Use is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable, this will not affect any other provision of these Terms of Use and the agreement between you and us will be deemed amended to the extent necessary to make it legal, valid, and enforceable.

The laws of the Province of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein shall govern these Terms of Use in all respects, without giving effect to conflicts of laws principles.
