19.7. Language:

These Terms are drafted in the English language. If these Terms are translated into any other language (including Arabic, as intended for the Platform), the English version shall prevail in the event of any ambiguity or conflict between the English version and the translated version, unless KSA law expressly requires the Arabic version to prevail. The client has requested both Arabic and English versions; it is understood that an official Arabic translation will be prepared and, where required by KSA law, the Arabic version will be the authoritative text.

19.8. Headings:

The headings used in these Terms are for convenience only and shall not affect the interpretation of these Terms.

19.9. Third-Party Rights:

These Terms do not and are not intended to confer any rights or remedies upon any person other than You and Rwaj, except as expressly stated herein (e.g., Indemnified Parties).

19.20.

Rwaj may use artificial intelligence technologies to support certain features of the Platform, including but not limited to pricing suggestions, content moderation, and customer support. Some decisions, recommendations, or actions may therefore be AI-assisted. While Rwaj seeks to ensure fairness and accuracy, AI tools may not always be error-free.
