17) Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The “Last updated” date shows the latest revision. If changes materially affect your rights, we will provide notice (e.g., via the Services). Continued use of the Services after changes means you accept the updated Terms.

18) Miscellaneous
