obviate [the need to]


Explanation:
... does not obviate the consultation of the particular terms and conditions specific to each such product or service.

or ... does not obviate the need to consult the particular terms ...

The first version is formally more correct (since obviate already means "to render unnecessary"); but the second construction is seen more often, and is kind of stronger, more direct, because of the "action word" (the verbal construction).

are subject to


Explanation:
The terms agreed to between the partiers ... ARE SUBJECT TO the terms and conditions related to each specific product.

Talvez uma maneira melhor de dizer isso é "in case of conflict between the terms of this (Anexo) and the terms of each specific product, the latter shall prevail".
