Invited User Terms

1. Acceptance of these terms

These terms are between you and PropertyMe Pty Ltd of Level 22, One Wharf Lane, 171 Sussex Street, Sydney NSW 2000 (“we”, “us” and “our”) for the use by you of the online property services made available via the PropertyMe website, the PropertyMe application and other associated applications (together, the “Services”).
To proceed to use the Services, you must be (and you warrant, represent and undertake that you are) an employee or other invited user (“Invited User”) of the organisation which has given you access to access and use the Services (“Subscriber”). If you are not such an Invited User, you have no right to use the Services and should not proceed past this point.
Please read these terms carefully as they apply to your use of the Services. By clicking the “accept” button or by accessing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these terms and our privacy policy available at www.propertyme.com.au/privacy. Our privacy policy is incorporated into these terms by reference and may be updated by us from time to time. You should check this link periodically as any changes to our privacy policy will be notified to you by its posting to this link.
We may revise these terms from time to time, and we will endeavour to provide You with at least 30 days prior notice when we do so. Such notice may be displayed on the Website (or associated application) and/or sent to your registered email address. By continuing to use the Services after the expiry of that notice period, you agree to any amendments to these terms. If you do not agree to any amendments to these terms and you are not an employee of a Subscriber, you can cancel your access to the Services at any time in accordance with clause 6(a). If you are an employee of a Subscriber, you may only cancel your access to the Services with the Subscriber’s consent.
To the extent that any of these terms are inconsistent with the terms of the “Terms of Use” (or other separate signed agreement) between us and Subscriber, these terms will not apply to the extent of such inconsistency.
Any person who is not an employee of the Subscriber and who provides or develops technology-based goods or services (whether to the Subscriber or to others), or is employed or contracted by a third party that does so, is ineligible to be an Invited User, except with our written consent. If at any time you are ineligible to be an Invited User, you must notify us immediately and seek our written consent to continue being an Invited User. If we do not provide our consent, or do so but subsequently withdraw our consent, you must cease using the Services.

2. Access to Services

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferrable right to access and use the Services strictly for the business purposes of the Subscriber strictly in accordance with these terms.
In order to be able to access the Services, you must complete your registration details. You must ensure that your registration details are true and accurate at all times, and you must notify us of any change to your registration details as originally supplied. You must promptly comply with all requests for documentation and information we make relating to your use of the Services.
The Subscriber will provide you with a username and password or other means of authentication to gain access to the Services (“Authentication Credentials”). We or the Subscriber may, from time to time, change and/or reset any Authentication Credentials, and notify you accordingly.
You must keep your Authentication Credentials confidential and private, and not disclose them to, or share them with, any other person. If you have lost or forgotten your Authentication Credentials, or you have reason to suspect any unauthorised use of them, you must immediately reset them on the ‘login’ page. You acknowledge and agree that we are entitled to treat the actions of any person who accesses and uses your account using your Authentication Credentials as being authorised by you.
We may from time to time, and we will endeavour to provide you with at least 14 days prior notice when we do so, vary, modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, any or all of the Services or the features and/or functionality of the Services. If you are not happy with any such changes and you are not an employee of a Subscriber, you can cancel your access to the Services at any time in accordance with clause 6(a). If you are an employee of a Subscriber, you may only cancel your access to the Services with the Subscriber’s consent.

2. support requests relating to issues already covered by the support on the Website; or
3. we consider that any support request is actually a request for specific training in connection with your use of the Services.
We may suspend or cancel your access to the Services, either temporarily or permanently, with immediate effect by providing notice to you, if you are abusive or act improperly towards us or any of our directors, officers, employees or contractors in relation to your use of the Services or any support requested under this clause.
