2.1 We may at any time and without notice, modify these terms on your use of OneService. Such modified Terms shall be effective immediately and your continued use of our OneService digital products (including any application or services linked to or from OneService) after such modified Terms have been posted shall constitute your agreement to be bound by the modified Terms.

4. Third Party Materials
4.1 Our OneService digital products may require, enable or facilitate access to or use of software or services of a third party (“Third Party”). In such an event, there will be terms of use of the third party software or service (the “Third Party Terms”) that will bind either our OneService digital products or you or both. An example of such Third Party Terms would be open source software terms or standard form terms of the distribution platform from which you obtain any part of the our OneService digital products (e.g. Google Play Store or Apple App Store terms) which bind MSO as a developer or user of the distribution platform (the “Distribution Terms”). For the avoidance of doubt, as this Clause 4 relates to the Distribution Terms, the relevant Distribution Terms are the terms of the specific platform from which you obtained a copy of the software or application that is part of our OneService digital products. For example, if you obtained the said copy from the Google Play Store, then the relevant terms are Google’s Distribution Terms.
4.2 Our OneService (OS) App has among others two modular features – “Find Parking” (beta) and “Start Parking” which makes use of third party products and services operated by Quantum Inventions (“QI”) and Parking.sg (Refer to Schedule A) respectively. You are deemed to have read and agree to be bound by all the obligations in the Third Party Terms which are applicable to you as the end user.
4.3 If the Third Party Terms require you to enter into an agreement directly with the Third Party, then you agree to enter into such agreement, and in any event, to be bound by the Third Party Terms.
4.4 You agree to indemnify and keep us harmless against all claims, actions, liabilities, losses, damages, costs or expenses (including legal costs on an indemnity basis) howsoever arising out of or in connection with your access or use of the aforesaid third party software or services or your non-compliance with the Third Party Terms.
4.5 For the avoidance of doubt, without prejudice to Clause 4.4, to the extent of any inconsistency between these Terms of Use and the Third Party Terms, the latter shall prevail provided that nothing in the Third Party Terms shall limit the generality of your indemnity obligations in Clause 4.4.
