The provisions and conditions of these Terms, and each obligation referenced herein, represent the entire Agreement between WVO (including the Providers), its affiliated or related entities, and You, and supersede any prior agreements or understandings not incorporated herein. In the event that any inconsistencies exist between these Terms and any future published terms of use or understanding, the last published Terms shall prevail.
