In case one or more clauses of these GTCs are fully or partly ineffectual, all other clauses remain unaffected. The ineffectual clause is automatically considered to be replaced with a legally effective one, its intended purpose being economically closest to the original purpose of the partially ineffectual clause. The same applies to regulatory gaps. | Translation - Spanish
En caso de que una o más cláusulas de estos términos generales contractuales de comercio no sean parcial o totalmente efectivas, todas las demás cláusulas no resultarán afectadas.
La cláusula sin efecto se presupone substituida de modo automático con una de efecto legal, al ser su intención estar de modo económico lo más cercano al propósito original de la cláusula parcialmente sin efecto.
Lo mismo se aplica a las lagunas de regulación.
