Any unauthorized modification, tampering or change of any information, or any interference with the availability of or access to this Site is strictly prohibited.

Your obligations under this Agreement are of a special and unique character for which IRT cannot be reasonably or adequately compensated in damages in the event you breach your obligations hereunder.

IRT's failure to enforce any provision of this Agreement shall not be deemed a waiver of such provision nor of the right to enforce such provision, and a waiver by IRT of any right under this Agreement on any occasion will not in any way constitute a waiver of such right or any other right on any other occasion. In the event any provision of this Agreement is determined to be invalid, such invalidity will not affect the validity of the remaining portions of this Agreement, and the parties will substitute for the invalid provision a provision which most closely approximates the intent and economic effect of the invalid provision. This Agreement will apply in lieu of and notwithstanding any specific legend or statement associated with any particular document or information exchanged.
