Terms of Use

This Agreement sets out the basis upon which SetConnect will provide the User with access to the Services. By registering to use the Services, the User acknowledges and agrees that the User has read and agrees to these terms and conditions and has the authority to act on behalf of any person or entity for whom you are using the Services. If SetConnect accepts your application for an account, the User will be provided with a username and password.

1. USE OF SERVICES

1.1 Use of Services: SetConnect grants the User the right to access and use the Services from the Start Date via the SetConnect Web Application or the SetConnect Mobile Application.

1.2 Non-Exclusive: The User’s right to use the Services is non-exclusive, non-transferable and is not able to be sub-licensed. Nothing in the Agreement prevents SetConnect from providing the Services to any other person.

1.3 Third Party Features: The Services interoperate with a range of third party service features but SetConnect does not make any warranty or representation on the availability of those features. If a third party feature provider ceases to provide that feature, SetConnect may cease to make available that feature to the User. To avoid doubt, if SetConnect exercises its right to cease the availability of a third party feature, the User is not entitled to any refund, discount or other compensation.

1.4 Connectivity: The User acknowledges that the User is responsible for the provision of the internet, 3G, 4G or other enabled connections to the tablet or any phone or device in order to use the Services.

2. USER OBLIGATIONS

2.1 General use: The User must use the Services in accordance with this Agreement solely for its own internal business purposes and must not resell or make available the Services to any other third party (unless in accordance with clause 2.3or otherwise approved in writing by SetConnect) or otherwise commercially exploit the Services.

2.2 Access conditions: When accessing the Services, the User must:

not impersonate another person or misrepresent authorisation to act on behalf of others or SetConnect;
not share the User’s login and password details with any other person;
not allow any other person who is not a Permitted User to access the Services without SetConnect’s prior written consent;
not attempt to undermine the security or integrity of the Underlying Systems;
not use, or misuse, the Services in any way which may impair the functionality of the Underlying Systems or impair the ability of any other user to use the Services;
not attempt to view, access, reverse engineer or copy any material or data other than that to which the User is authorised to access; and
neither use the Services in a manner, nor transmit, input or store any User Data, that breaches any third party right (including Intellectual Property Rights and privacy rights) or is Objectionable, incorrect or misleading.

2.3 Users:

No individual or entity other than the User may access or use the Services.
The User may authorise any member of its personnel or a contractor to be a Permitted User. In such circumstances, the User will provide SetConnect with the Permitted User’s name and other information that SetConnect reasonably requires in relation to the Permitted User. Acceptance of a Permitted User is at SetConnect’s sole discretion.
When registering to use the Services, each Permitted User must agree to comply with this Agreement. The User is responsible for the Permitted User’s use of the Services in respect of the User’s activities. A breach of any term of this Agreement by the User’s Permitted User is deemed to be a breach of this Agreement by the User.
The User controls each Permitted User’s access to the Service in relation to that User at all times and can revoke or change a Permitted User’s access, or level of access, at any time and for any reason, in which case that person or entity will cease to be a Permitted User or shall have that different level of access, as the case may be.

3. USER DATA

3.1 SetConnect Access to User Data: The User acknowledges that:

SetConnect may require access to the User Data to exercise its rights and perform its obligations under this Agreement; and
