Scope of these conditions

You must read and agree to these terms and conditions before making any other use of the site.  If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, you must not use the site.  By making any use of the site, you thereby accept and agree to be bound by these terms and conditions. 

These terms and conditions apply to all use of the site including your use of sections of the site which are subject to additional specific conditions.  Your use of any section of the site which is subject to specific conditions is subject to your prior acceptance of those specific conditions and you agree to be bound by those specific conditions with respect to your use of the relevant section(s) of the site even if you fail to review the specific conditions.   Without limitation, if you use this site to purchase or obtain supplies, you thereby also agree to all specific conditions governing that purchase or acquisition.

Acquisition of supplies generally

Unless otherwise stipulated by us, any registration or proposed registration through the site and any acquisition or proposed acquisition of supplies listed on or made available through the site is subject to the following conditions:

  • Restriction to approved NFP’s – You may not seek the supply of any donated or discounted supplies or any validation token from this site unless you do so in your capacity as an officer or employee of an approved not for profit organisation (“NFP”).  It is not permissible for contractors or agents of an NFP to seek approval or represent an NFP with respect to any interactions with us.  The contact details submitted in relation to any communication with us must be the contact details of an authorised officer or employee of the NFP.   In order to become an approved NFP, you must provide information in accordance with our requirements.  You warrant that all information submitted by you in connection with our NFP approval process is complete and accurate.
  • Restriction to Aust and NZ – Unless otherwise specified on the site, supplies may only be acquired by NFP’s located in Australia or New Zealand for use in those regions.
  • Administration fees – As part of your acquisition of any supplies, you must pay the applicable administration fee to us.
  • Payment processing and credit card fees – We may add any third party payment processing or credit card processing fees to the amount payable by you for any supplies.
  • Shipping costs – You will be responsible to meet all costs of shipping supplies to you.
  • Fulfillment – Supplies will be shipped directly to you by the relevant supplier.  We will endeavor to communicate orders placed using the site to suppliers without delay.   However, we will not be liable for any non-delivery or delay in delivery caused by suppliers, postal and courier companies or any other circumstances.  If a supplier is no longer able to provide supplies you have ordered, we will offer you the option of acquiring alternative supplies or providing you with a refund.
  • Returns – We do not accept return of supplies.  Your rights with respect to defective supplies will depend on the policies of the relevant supplier.
  • Warranty issues – Any warranty issues will depend on the warranties offered by the supplier.  Subject to supplier’s warranties and any non-excludable rights, all warranties relating to supplies are hereby excluded and the provisions of the clause below (Liability arising from use of the site) apply.
  • Currency - All transactions are in Australian Dollars. If any amounts are shown in other currencies these are only indicative and may vary due to exchange rate variations at the actual time of a transaction.
  • We may utilise the services of third parties with respect to the processing of payments.  Where applicable, you must comply with all relevant requirements of these third parties.  We will not be responsible for any delays or deficiencies in the performance of such third parties.
  • Credit Card Use – If credit card payment is facilitated by the site, we undertake to use credit card details only as specified by you in relation to purchases made on the site.  Illegal use of credit cards is a serious crime.  We will report any suspicious activity and disclose all relevant evidence to credit card companies and law enforcement authorities.
  • Errors in description or pricing – Errors may occur in the description or pricing of supplies.  We may cancel any transaction if any such error occurs, notwithstanding any confirmation of an order or acceptance of payment.

Use of supplies

Without limiting any other limitations and restrictions, you must only use supplies in accordance with any instructions provided with those supplies.  You should not use any supplies if you have any concerns regarding the instructions.  Your evaluation of the suitability of supplies for use and your decision to use supplies or to make supplies available to others for their use is entirely your responsibility.

Directory services

You warrant that any information you submit for inclusion in the directory is complete and accurate and that you have obtained all necessary consents and approvals from any individual in relation to whom personal information is submitted.

You acknowledge that the directory may include some personal information including names of officers and associated contact details which we will store and make available for public access and viewing.  Our retention and use of personal information is subject to our privacy policy.

Warranties

The site contains information, advice, text and other materials that are provided for your convenience and enjoyment. Information may contain errors, omissions, inaccuracies or outdated information.  We make no representation or warranties as to the completeness, accuracy, adequacy, currency or reliability of any information and shall not be liable for any lack of the foregoing.  Descriptions of, or references to, products or publications within the site do not imply endorsement of that product or publication.

We do not attempt to exclude any conditions, warranties, rights or remedies which you may have pursuant to legislation to the extent that those rights and remedies can not be excluded by agreement (“non-excludable rights”).

Subject to any non-excludable rights: (a) the site and its contents are provided on an "as is" basis; and (b) all express or implied conditions or warranties of any kind (including but not limited to any warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, freedom from contamination by computer viruses, non-infringement of proprietary rights and the accuracy, adequacy, currency, suitability, completeness, legality, reliability or usefulness of any content or other part of the site) are excluded.

If you find any errors or omissions, please report them to us.

Liability arising from use of the site and supplies

Subject to any non-excludable rights: (a) your use of the site and supplies is entirely at your own risk; (b) you hereby release us from any claims you would otherwise have against us now or in future arising directly or indirectly from the site or your use of the site and supplies; and (c) in no event will we be liable for any damages whatsoever (including, without limitation, direct, indirect, punitive, special, consequential damages, lost profits, lost data or business interruption) arising out of the use, inability to use, or the results of use of the site, or arising from your purchase or inability to purchase any supplies, or arising from your inability to participate in any promotion offered on the site whether based on contract, tort, statute, common law, equity or any other legal theory and whether or not advised of the possibility of such damages. Without limitation, this exclusion of liability applies to any loss or damage caused by any deficiency in site performance and any error, omission, interruption, deletion, defect, delay in operation or transmission, computer virus, communication line failure, theft or destruction or unauthorised access to, alteration of, or use of any material associated with the site or your attempted use of the site.

If you are entitled to make any claim against us as a result of non-excludable rights or on any other basis notwithstanding the provisions of these conditions, our liability to you for the aggregate of such claims (regardless of the basis on which you are entitled to claim from us) is limited to the provision of the information or supplies again or payment of the cost of providing the information or supplies again (at our election).

Indemnity

You must indemnify each of us and keep each of us indemnified against all claims, liabilities, expenses (including legal fees on a solicitor-client basis) or losses that may be made against or sustained by any of us arising from your breach of these conditions or otherwise howsoever from or in connection with your use of the site and supplies.

Inappropriate use and content

You must not email, post or submit any defamatory, offensive, illegal or inappropriate material or any material which infringes a third party’s intellectual property rights or which contains a virus, worm, Trojan horse or other code that manifests contaminating or destructive properties.  You must not attempt to modify or damage the site and must not use the site in connection with any mass distribution of email (spam) or denial of service attack.  You must not impersonate any person or entity or enter a fictitious name or purport to be authorised to represent any entity if that entity has not authorised you to do so in connection with your use of the site.  You must not cause or permit any other person to engage in any of these activities (eg. by providing them with access to your computer or by providing password information to them).

We are not liable for defamatory, offensive, illegal or inappropriate content available at the site or accessed from the site and the risk of injury from such content rests entirely with you.

Third party material

The site may include content or references supplied by users or other third parties (“third party material”).  We do not monitor and accept no liability for third party material.  Any opinions, advice, statements, services, offers or other information contained in third party material, is the responsibility of the respective author(s), distributor(s) or providers of that third party material.  We make no representation and give no endorsement of the accuracy, adequacy, currency, suitability, completeness, legality, reliability or usefulness of any third party material or the identity, knowledge or qualifications of any provider of third party material.  Your access to and reliance on third party material is entirely at your own risk.

References in third party material to any specific products, process, or service by trade name, trade mark, manufacturer, or otherwise, do not constitute or imply their sponsorship, endorsement or recommendation by us, and such references shall not be used for advertising or product endorsement purposes.

Links to third party web sites

Any links to third party web sites from the site are provided solely as a convenience to you.  We make no representation as to the intellectual property rights of any material available on the linked third party web sites. We do not review and monitor any linked third party web sites and we are not responsible for the contents, accuracy, adequacy, currency, suitability, completeness, legality, reliability or usefulness of any material on any third party web site and accept no responsibility for any broken or redirected links.  The presence of such links should not be taken to imply any type of association, sponsorship, endorsement, monitoring, approval of, or responsibility for, the linked third party web site or its content.  It is your responsibility to evaluate the content and usefulness of information obtained from other sites.  Your access to and reliance on any third party web site is entirely at your own risk.

You acknowledge and agree that we may receive payments or other benefits in connection with links to third party sites or the inclusion of third party material in the site.

Links from other sites to the site

Other sites may only link to the site with our prior written permission.  Any site that links to the site must link to the relevant home page.  We may revoke or withdraw our consent to a link at any time in which case the link must be promptly removed. Any site that links to the site must not (a) replicate the site’s content; (b) create a browser or border environment around the site’s content; (c) imply any endorsement by us; (d) misrepresent its relationship with us; (e) present false information about supplies; (f) use our name or logos without our prior written permission; or (g) contain content that could be construed as obscene, libelious, defamatory, pornographic or inappropriate for all ages; or (h) contain material that would violate any laws.

We cannot and do not guarantee or warrant that any files available for downloading through the site will be free of infection or viruses, worms, Trojan horses or other code that manifests contaminating or destructive properties. You are responsible for implementing sufficient procedures and checkpoints to satisfy your particular requirements for virus detection, accuracy of data input and output and for maintaining an appropriate means for the reconstruction of any lost data.

Copyright, trade marks & limited right to use materials

We or third parties own and retain the copyright, trade marks and other intellectual property rights in the materials found at the site including without limitation web pages, documents, text, designs, graphics, audio and video.  Unless otherwise expressly stipulated by us, you may only use material available on the site for your personal use and may only print or make an electronic copy of the material for this purpose.  You must not sell or otherwise commercially exploit any material or information made available at the site.

By submitting any material to the site or to us in connection with your use of the site, you thereby assign all intellectual property rights in that material to us. You must not submit material to the site if a third party has any intellectual property rights in that material.

Governing law

Severance

If any provision of these conditions is unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severed from these conditions and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

Changes to site content and access rights

We may modify the content, nature or accessibility of the site or any parts of the site as and when we see fit.  These conditions will continue to apply even if you cease to be permitted or able to use all or any parts of the site.

Revision of these conditions
