Safearth Terms of Service

Last updated: 4 September 2019 (previous versions)

This contains important information. Please read carefully.

These Terms of Service (“Terms“) cover your use of the services and software (“Services“) provided by us, The Peak Group Pty Ltd, trading as Safearth (“Safearth“). Safearth is a registered trade mark and business name of The Peak Group Pty Ltd.

By using our Services, you are agreeing to these Terms and that this agreement is enforceable like any written agreement. If you do not agree to the Terms, or if you are under 18 years old or are incapable of entering into a legally binding agreement, you need to immediately stop using the Services.

Safearth ID

You may need an individual user account (“Safearth ID“) in order to use some of our Services. You may create your own Safearth ID, or your Safearth ID may be assigned to you by an administrator, such as your employer or educational institution. If you are using a Safearth ID assigned to you by an administrator, different or additional terms may apply and your administrator may be able to access or disable your account.

You are responsible for your Safearth ID and all activity carried out under your Safearth ID. Keep your password confidential and don’t allow other people to use your Safearth ID. If you are concerned your Safearth ID is no longer secure, contact us immediately.

Business Use

If you are using the Services as part of a business, then you must be authorized to sign for and bind the business to accept the Terms. All licences granted to the business under these Terms are expressly conditioned upon acceptance by such authorized personnel. The business will hold harmless and indemnify Safearth and its employees, agents, contractors, subcontractors and consultants (“Associates“) from any claim, suit or action arising from or related to the use of the Services or violation of these Terms, including any liability or expense arising from claims, losses, damages, suits, judgments, litigation costs and attorneys’ fees.

Changes to the Services

We may sometimes make changes to the Services and updates to the Software. We will reasonably act to minimise any negative impact on you, but some of these changes may mean that certain aspects of the Services are no longer available.

Using our Services

We want to make sure you get value out of our Services. Rather than provide hard limits on usage, we prefer where feasible to allow more freedom to you. Our Fair Use Policy (www.safearth.com/fair-use-policy) details your responsibilities when using our Services.

Licence

Where the Services includes software (“Software“), Safearth grants you a non-transferable, non-sublicensable, non-exclusive, worldwide licence to use the Software, and to develop designs and other content in connection with the normal course of the operation of such Software.

This licence is dependent on:

  • your adherence to the Fair Use Policy. If in our opinion you have not acted in accordance with the Fair Use Policy, we may revoke the licence.
  • your ongoing acceptance of, and compliance with, the Terms and your acceptance of our latest Privacy Policy

If you are using the Software as part of a business, this licence is granted to your business, not to you personally.

Other Agreements

If there is a separate, current, executed agreement between Safearth and you regarding the Services, and there is any discrepancy between a term of that agreement and these Terms, the relevant term of that agreement will apply. Any terms and conditions stated on a related purchase order will not apply and are null and void.

Trial Software

Safearth may choose to make our Software or Services available for a trial period.

Safearth may also occasionally release Software marked as beta (or a word with similar meaning) for a trial period. This is software that is still being tested and may not be as reliable as other software.

Any use of our Software or Services during such trial period will be subject to these Terms. At the end of a trial period, you must delete any downloaded or installed Software and associated documentation and files.

Educational Versions

Safearth may choose to make the Services available to educational institutions for educational purposes. In such cases, use of the Services will be subject to these Terms, but may not be used for commercial, professional or other for-profit purposes.

Network, Data and Privacy

Some of our Services require a connection between downloaded Software on your computer and software running on Safearth-managed servers. Some Services may require use of your internal network and internet connection to operate, for which you are responsible. Some Services may also require the transfer of various data (“Data“) to our servers, including: personal data as described in our Privacy Policy (www.safearth.com/privacy-policy); licence, usage and activity data; other analytical data; design data and other data uploaded or creating when using the Services. Whilst we may store Data, we assume no responsibility for storing it, and you should ensure you retain copies of any data or information you may need.
