Client agrees to notify White Cloud immediately if it suspects or becomes aware of any unauthorized use of its account, or any unauthorized access to or misuse of its login details.
6.6 The Client agrees not to reproduce, duplicate, copy or re-sell the Services, the Website or any part of them.

8.2 Refunds are at the sole discretion of White Cloud.
9.1 The Client shall be solely responsible for the payment of the Charges. When Client registers with the Website, a charge may be run against the Client’s Credit Card or other form of payment for a nominal amount to be applied to Client’s first order.

17.4 White Cloud shall:
(a) only process the Client Personal Data in accordance with this Agreement (and not otherwise unless alternative processing instructions are agreed between the parties in writing) except where otherwise required by applicable law (and shall inform the Client of that legal requirement before processing, unless applicable law prevents it doing so on important grounds of public interest); and
