3.13 We understand delays can occasionally happen. Please contact us as soon as possible if you are running late returning the Vehicle so we can minimise disruption to other members.

3.14 You agree that if you do not return the Vehicle to the return location by the agreed time, or have not made the Vehicle available for our collection at the agreed time (if we have elected to collect the Vehicle, in our sole discretion), then we may charge you the Late Return Charge.

3.15 You agree that the Late Return Charge is a genuine pre-estimate of loss suffered or incurred by us as a result of your delay in returning the Vehicle to us.

Title, Risk and Security

3.16 Title in any Vehicle provided to you will at all times remain with us or our lessors. You acknowledge that we may lease Vehicles from third parties to provide the Services, and you:

  • take the Vehicle as a bare bailee only;
  • irrevocably appoint us to be your attorney to do all acts and things necessary to ensure our retention of title to the Vehicle, including the registration of any security interest in our favour with respect to the Vehicle; and
  • must not allow any other person to have or acquire any security interest in the Vehicle without our prior written consent.

3.17 To the extent that our interest in the hire of the Vehicle is a ‘security interest’ for the purposes of the Personal Property Securities Act 2009 (Cth) (PPSA):

  • we may register any actual or likely security interest, and you must take all steps that we consider necessary or desirable to ensure our security interest in the Vehicle and any proceeds of its sale is enforceable, and to perfect and ensure our priority over all other security interests;
  • if we register our security interest in accordance with the PPSA, it is without prejudice to any other rights that we have at law;
  • you acknowledge and agree that we have not authorised any disposal or dealing of the Vehicle, and our security interest attaches to any proceeds of sale of the Vehicle;
  • you waive your right to receive any notice (including notice of a verification statement) that is required by the PPSA, including but not limited to notices under sections 95, 118, 121, 130, 132, 135 or 157;
  • you agree that sections 95, 96, 121(4), 125, 129(2), 129(3), 130, 132(3)(d), 132(4), 142 and 143 of the PPSA do not apply to the enforcement of our security interest; and
  • you must not disclose any information of the kind referred to in section 275 of the PPSA, to the extent permitted under that section.

4. Availability, Disruption and Downtime

4.1 While we strive to always make the Platform available to you, we do not make any promises that these will be available 100% of the time. The Platform may be disrupted during certain periods, including, for example, as a result of scheduled or emergency maintenance.

4.2 The Platform may interact with, or be reliant on, products or services provided by third parties, such as cloud hosting service providers. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for disruptions or downtime caused or contributed to by these third parties.

4.3 We will try to provide you with reasonable notice, where possible, of any disruptions to your access to the Platform.

5. Subscription

5.1 Details of our Subscription, including subscription tiers, membership allocations, features, limitations, fees and billing cycles are set out on our Platform. You will be billed on a regular basis, as set out on our Platform, at the beginning of each billing cycle.

5.2 Cancellation: All Subscriptions continue for the agreed Service term (that you selected when purchasing the Service) (Service Term). At the end of each Service Term, provided you have paid all fees owing, your Subscription will be automatically renewed for the same term. If you wish to cancel your Subscription, you may do so through your Account. Your cancellation will take effect at the end of your current Service Term, and the Subscription will not be renewed (meaning you will need to continue paying all fees due up until your current Service Term ends).

5.3 Our payment methods will be set out at the time you purchase the Subscription. If you choose to pay your fees using one of our third-party payment processors, you may need to accept their terms and conditions (if this is the case, these will be set out at the time you make payment).

5.4 You must not pay, or attempt to pay, any fees due under these Terms or as a result of your use of the Platform by fraudulent or unlawful means. If you make payment by debit or credit card, you must be the authorised card holder. If payment is made by direct debit, by providing your bank account details and accepting these Terms, you authorise our nominated third-party payment processor to debit your bank account, and you confirm that you are either the holder or an authorised signatory of that bank account.

5.5 If any fees due under these Terms are not paid on time, we may:

  • suspend your access to the Platform and access to the Vehicle; and
  • charge interest on any overdue payments at a rate equal to the Reserve Bank of Australia’s cash rate, from time-to-time, plus 2% per annum, calculated daily and compounding monthly.

5.6 When applicable, GST payable will be clearly shown on our invoices. You agree to pay us an amount equivalent to the GST imposed on these charges. “GST” has the meaning given in A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999 (Cth).

6. Intellectual Property

6.1 We own all intellectual property rights in the Platform. This includes how the Platform looks and functions, as well as our copyrighted works, trademarks, inventions, designs and other intellectual property. You agree not to copy or otherwise misuse our intellectual property without our written permission (for example, to reverse engineer or discover the source code of our intellectual property), and you must not alter or remove any confidentiality, copyright or other ownership notice placed on the Platform.

6.2 We may use any feedback or suggestions that you give us in any manner which we see fit (for example, to develop new features), and no benefit will be owed to you as a result of any use by us of your feedback or suggestions.

7. Confidential Information and Personal Information

7.1 While using the Services, you may share confidential information with us, and you may become aware of confidential information about us. You agree not to use our confidential information, and to take reasonable steps to protect our confidential information from being disclosed without our permission, and we agree to do the same for your confidential information. This also means making sure that any employees, contractors, professional advisors or agents of ours or yours only have access to confidential information on a ‘need-to-know basis’ (in other words, the disclosure is absolutely necessary), and that they also agree to not misuse or disclose such confidential information.

7.2 However, either you or we may share confidential information with legal or regulatory authorities if required by law to do so.

7.3 We collect, hold, disclose and use any Personal Information you provide to us in accordance with our privacy policy, available on the Platform, and applicable privacy laws.

7.4 You must only disclose Personal Information to us if you have the right to do so (such as having the individual’s express consent).

7.5 We may need to disclose Personal Information to third parties, such as our related companies or our service providers (for example, IT and administrative service providers and our professional advisors).

7.6 Where we are required by law to report on our activities, you acknowledge that from time to time we may request certain information from you in order to meet our requirements, and you agree to provide us with such information within the timeframes reasonably requested by us.

7.7 This clause 7 will survive the termination of these Terms.

8. Australian Consumer Law

8.1 In some jurisdictions, you may have guarantees, rights or other remedies provided by law (Consumer Law Rights), and these Terms do not restrict your Consumer Law Rights. We will only be bound by your Consumer Law Rights and the express wording of these Terms.

8.2 If you accept these Terms in Australia, nothing in these Terms should be interpreted to exclude, restrict or modify the application of, or any rights or remedies you may have under, any part of the Australian Consumer Law (as set out in Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)).

8.3 This clause 8 will survive the termination or expiry of these Terms.

9. Liability

9.1 To the maximum extent permitted by law, you are liable for and you agree to indemnify us and hold us harmless in respect of any Liability which we may suffer, incur or are otherwise liable for as a result of, or in connection with:

  • any property loss or damage, death or personal injury, arising from or in connection with your improper or negligent use of the Vehicle;
  • any loss (including theft) of, or damage to, the Vehicle when you are responsible for the risk in the Vehicle;
  • any failure to return the Vehicle in its Original Condition; and
  • all Liabilities suffered or incurred by us in repossessing or recovering the Vehicle in accordance with these Terms.

9.2 Despite anything to the contrary but subject to your Consumer Law Rights, to the maximum extent permitted by Law:

  • neither Party will be liable for Consequential Loss;
  • a Party’s liability for any Liability under these Terms will be reduced proportionately to the extent the relevant Liability was caused or contributed to by the acts or omissions of the other Party (or any of its Personnel), including any failure by that other Party to mitigate its loss; and
  • (where our Services are not ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use or consumption) in respect of any failure by us to comply with relevant Consumer Law Rights, our Liability is limited (at our discretion) to supplying the Services again or paying the cost of having the Services supplied again; and
  • our aggregate liability for any Liability arising from or in connection with these Terms will be limited to annual Subscription Fees paid by you to us.

9.3 This clause 9 will survive the termination or expiry of these Terms.

10. Termination

Suspension

10.1 We may suspend your access to the Services where we reasonably believe there has been any unauthorised access to or use of the Services (such as the unauthorised sharing of login details for the Platform or sharing the Vehicle with unauthorised third parties). If we suspend your access to the Services, we will let you know within a reasonable time of doing so, and we will work with you to resolve the matter, or if it cannot be resolved, then we may terminate these Terms and your access to the Services will end.

Termination by Us

  • without limiting and subject to your Consumer Law Rights, any payments made by you to us for hire that you have already used are not refundable to you;

10.7 This clause 10 will survive the termination or expiry of these Terms.

11. General

11.1 Amendment: Subject to clause 1.4, these Terms may only be amended by written instrument executed by the Parties.

11.2 Assignment: Subject to clauses 11.3 and 11.10, a Party must not assign, novate or deal with the whole or any part of its rights or obligations under these Terms without the prior written consent of the other Party (such consent is not to be unreasonably withheld).

11.3 Assignment of Debt: You agree that we may assign or transfer any debt owed by you to us, arising under or in connection with these Terms, to a debt collector, debt collection agency, or other third party.

11.4 Disputes: A Party may not commence court proceedings relating to any dispute arising from, or in connection with, these Terms (Dispute) without first meeting a representative of the other Party within 10 business days of notifying that other Party of the Dispute. If the Parties cannot resolve the Dispute at that meeting, either Party may refer the Dispute to mediation administered by the Australian Disputes Centre.

11.5 Force Majeure: Neither Party will be liable for any delay or failure to perform their respective obligations under these Terms if such delay or failure is caused or contributed to by a Force Majeure Event, provided that the Party seeking to rely on the benefit of this clause:

  • as soon as reasonably practical, notifies the other Party in writing details of the Force Majeure Event, and the extent to which it is unable to perform its obligations; and
  • uses reasonable endeavours to minimise the duration and adverse consequences of the Force Majeure Event.

Where the Force Majeure Event prevents a Party from performing a material obligation under these Terms for a period in excess of 60 days, then the other Party may by notice terminate these Terms, which will be effective immediately, unless otherwise stated in the notice. This clause will not apply to a Party’s obligation to pay any amount that is due and payable to the other Party under these Terms.

11.6 Governing Law: These Terms are governed by the laws of Victoria. Each Party irrevocably and unconditionally submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts operating in Victoria and any courts entitled to hear appeals from those courts and waives any right to object to proceedings being brought in those courts.

11.8 Notices: Any notice given under these Terms must be in writing addressed to the addresses set out in these Terms, or the relevant address last notified by the recipient to the Parties in accordance with this clause. Any notice may be sent by standard post or email, and will be deemed to have been served on the expiry of 48 hours in the case of post, or at the time of transmission in the case of transmission by email.

11.9 Relationship of Parties: These Terms are not intended to create a partnership, joint venture, employment or agency relationship between the Parties.

11.10 Subcontracting: We may subcontract the provision of any part of the services without your prior written consent. We agree that any subcontracting does not discharge us from any liability under these Terms and that we are liable for the acts and omissions of our subcontractor.
