Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

Interpretive note: The excerpt appears to be a partial sentence. The canonical claim captures the primary proposition stated. If there are further conditions or exceptions in the full clause, they are not present in the provided excerpt. The reference to 'Services' in the evidence span may refer specifically to Unpaid Services given the clause name; this context is adopted from the clause name rather than confirmed solely by the excerpt text.
