EN LO QUE RESULTE PERTINENTE Y NO SE OPONGA AL PRESENTE CONTRATO

Spanish to English Law/Patents Law: Contract(s)
Translation of a contract.
Context:
SIN PERJUICIO DE ELLOS, LAS PARTES ACUERDAN QUE LOS DERECHOS CONSTITUIDOS AQUÍ OTORGADOS, SERÁN REGULADOS SUPLETORIAMENTE, EN LO QUE RESULTE PERTINENTE Y NO SE OPONGA AL PRESENTE CONTRATO, POR EL CÓDIGO CIVIL.

Any ideas? Cheers!

Paul Ryan Aug 18, 2021:
de ellos I think that 'de ellos' means '...to those rights' as in 'without prejudice to those rights', in the sense that the invocation of external rules should not be taken to reduce the rights as set out in the contract but rather to regulate their implementation/exercise

INSOFAR AS APPLICABLE AND NOT IN CONFLICT WITH THIS CONTRACT

Or words to that affect. Basically this is what it says, although it is tweakable.

"NOTWITHSTANDING THE FOREGOING/ABOVE, THE PARTIES AGREE THAT THE RIGHTS GRANTED HEREIN SHALL BE GOVERNED, INSOFAR AS APPLICABLE AND NOT IN CONFLICT WITH THIS CONTRACT, BY THE CIVIL CODE."
Note from asker:
Thank you, I've gone with a version of this one. Thanks, everyone, for all your suggestions, they've been really useful!
Peer comment(s):

agree Toni Castano : Good suggestion (but "de ellos" cannot mean "the foregoing/above", yes, I know, it is not part of the question).

agree philgoddard : But you could simplify this to "where applicable and consistent with". You don't have to use a negative.
