FILLP may at any time without notifying the Customer make any changes to the Services which are necessary to comply with any applicable safety or other statutory requirements, or which do not materially affect the nature or quality of the Services.
FILLP will not normally make any charge directly to you for the supply of the services. FILLP may receive a commission, from the Provider, in respect of any new facility, or service, that commences. FILLP may pay a commission to its own introductory sources. Details of any commissions received or paid by FILLP will be provided to you on request.
