​

Rayft does not guarantee that any Content posted will be made available on the Site, either directly or through any Mobile App. We reserve the right to, but do not have any obligation to, remove or modify or restrict access to Content for any reason, including Content that is in breach of these Terms, the User Agreements or applicable law.

We may revise these Terms from time to time and the most current version will always be posted on the Site and/or via a link on the Mobile App. If a revision, in our sole discretion, is material we will notify you. By continuing to access or use the Site and/or Mobile App after the revisions become effective, you are agreeing to be bound by the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the Site and/or Mobile App. Where rights and obligations are dealt with under both these Terms and the User Agreement, then we agree that those rights and obligations may only be changed in accordance with the variation rights under the User Agreement, and further that the terms in the User Agreement are to prevail in the event of any inconsistency.

​

These Terms are governed by Singapore Law. You agree that any dispute arising from or relating to the subject matter of these Terms shall be governed by the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts of Singapore.
