    • In respect of each Accepted Quotation, provided that you have supplied us with the Accepted Quotation, an executed direct debit form and paid any deposit, specified in the Accepted Quotation, a separate legally binding contract between you and us will be formed, comprised of the following documents (each such contract, an Agreement):
      • these Terms of Service;
      • the Service Schedule(s); and
      • the Accepted Quotation.
    • To the extent of any inconsistency between any of the documents listed in subclauses 2(a) to 1.2(c), the document listed first in clause 1.2 will prevail, except to the extent expressly specified otherwise in the Service Schedule(s) or Accepted Quotation.
    • Our obligation to supply products and services under an Agreement is limited to those products and services expressly specified in the relevant Accepted Quotation.
    • We may update these Terms of Service or a Service Schedule at our discretion at any time before you enter into an Agreement with us. Unless otherwise agreed between the parties in writing, any changes will only apply to Agreements entered into after we make the amendments. We will provide you with a copy of the amended versions or upload them to our website. It is your responsibility to ensure that you have reviewed and understood them before you enter into an Agreement with us.
  1. Term of an Agreement

    • Each Agreement starts on the date specified in the Accepted Quotation, or if the Accepted Quotation does not specify a commencement date, the Agreement will start on the date of execution of the Accepted Quotation by you (Commencement Date).
    • If a contract term, initial term or minimum term or minimum period is specified in the Accepted Quotation (Initial Term) we will notify you at least 90 days prior to the expiry of the Initial Term or then current Renewal Term of the forthcoming renewal of the Agreement and remind you of your and our respective rights to terminate the Agreement in accordance with clause 2.3.
    • The initial term will automatically be extended without the need for any norice or consent of either party, by the number of days that is eqivalent to the period from the Commencement Date until the first daye that you process an EFTPOS transaction using any Requested Product and/or Requested Service.
    • Upon expiry of the Initial Term or the then current Renewal Term (as applicable), the Agreement will automatically continue for subsequent consecutive periods each of equivalent length to the Initial Term (each such period, a Renewal Term), until and unless either party notifies the other party in writing that it wishes to terminate the Agreement at least 60 days prior to the expiry of the Initial Term or the then current Renewal Term (as applicable), in which case if such notice is provided, the Agreement will terminate at the end of the Initial Term or the then current Renewal Term (as applicable).
    • If an Agreement does not have an Initial Term, the Agreement will commence on the Commencement Date and will continue until the Requested Products have been delivered in full and the Services have been configured and are ready for use, and thereafter until:
      • you terminate the Agreement on thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to us; or
      • we terminate the Agreement on sixty (60) days’ prior written notice to you.

 

  1. Supply of Requested Products and/or Services

  • To the extent reasonably required by us, you must arrange safe and timely access to Your Site for Our Personnel to provision, install, support and maintain any applicable Requested Product and/or Service. Support and maintenance in relation to any Requested Product and/or Service is outside the scope of an Agreement unless the applicable Accepted Quotation expressly specifies that they will be provided. For the avoidance of doubt, even where a Service Schedule refers to the supply of support or maintenance services, we have no obligation to provide such services unless the applicable Accepted Quotation expressly specifies that such services will be provided.

    • We warrant and guarantee that the Requested Products and Services will operate materially in accordance with the Specifications.
    • Subject to the ACL and any other non-excludable guarantees implied into an Agreement or any other Applicable Law, we do not guarantee or warrant that any Requested Product or Service will be:
      • uninterrupted and error-free;
      • meet your specific needs; or
      • satisfy your specific requirements,

unless expressly specified otherwise in an Accepted Quotation.

  • Before entering into an Agreement with us for the provision of Requested Products and/or Services, you must ensure that your details specified in the relevant Accepted Quotation are correct and that the Requested Products and Services are fit for your needs and intended uses.
  • If an Accepted Quotation specifies Service Levels, we will use our best endeavours to meet them.
  • We may vary any Requested Products and Services in our sole discretion, but only if it doesn’t materially reduce their performance, remove functionality or result in the Requested Products and Services becoming incompatible with any of your other products or services that the Accepted Quotation expressly specified the Requested Products and Services will be compatible with.

    • We do not provide data backup services in respect of Your Data unless an applicable Accepted Quotation expressly specifies that we will.

except to the extent caused or contributed to by our negligent act, wilful misconduct or breach of the Agreement.

    • If you fail to make any payment due to us under an Agreement in accordance with the Payment Terms then, without limiting our rights and remedies:

  1. Liability

    • The output of each Requested Product and/or Service (including any report generated from each Requested Product or Service) does not and will not constitute our advice, including professional, financial, legal or other advice.

You must not represent (either expressly or impliedly) that the output of any Requested Product and/or Service is or may constitute our advice.

    • You acknowledge and agree that in enforcing any security interest provided for by an Agreement, we may have recourse to and may satisfy any of the trustee liability directly out of the Trust assets.
  1. Termination

    • A party (for the purposes of this clause 15, the first party) may terminate an Agreement by written notice to the other party if the other party (defaulting party) commits a material breach of the Agreement that is not remediable, or if the breach is a remediable and the defaulting party fails to remedy the breach within 14 days of written notice from the first party requiring the breach to be remedied.

    • If an ETF is payable, we shall send you a tax invoice in respect of the ETF and you will pay that invoice within 30 days. You agree that: (i) payment of the ETF is not intended to be, and will not be construed as, punitive and will compensate us for reasonable losses resulting from early termination of the Agreement; and (ii) the ETF is no more than is necessary to compensate us for our genuine pre-estimate of loss that we will suffer as a result of the early termination of an Agreement.
    • Any rights or obligations that, by their nature, survive termination shall so survive termination of an Agreement, including any provision dealing with confidentiality, Intellectual Property Rights, liability, dispute resolution and jurisdiction.

    • The relationship between you and us is non-exclusive and nothing in an Agreement will prevent you or us from supplying any goods or services to any third party in our absolute discretion.
