The Discloser may seek injunctive relief to enjoin any breach or threatened breach of this section, it being acknowledged by the parties that other remedies may be inadequate.

Customer agrees that if it or any Customer employee or resident provides DWI with personal mobile phone numbers or personal email addresses, or both, in response to surveys or other information gathering by or on behalf of DWI, Customer has obtained such opt-in consents that are necessary and sufficient to permit DWI to contact such individuals, including by phone calls or text, without liability to DWI, its affiliates or suppliers under applicable law, including without limitation under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act or similar state or federal laws, and such opt-in consents are and will be in full force and effect unless and until withdrawn by the individual concerned.
