Terms & Conditions
These terms of use form the contract (Contract) between you and us in relation to the supply of the Software.
1. Interpretation
1.1 Capitalised terms used in this Contract are defined in clause 16.
2. Intellectual Property
2.1 We (or our licensors) own and will continue to own all intellectual property in the Software (including improvements to that intellectual property). Any third-party software provided by us is provided subject to the licensing terms of the relevant third-party licensor.
2.2 We grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the Software on one Compatible Device in accordance with this Contract for the duration of your Subscription. You must not provide any Software or copies of it to any third party without first obtaining our written permission.
3. Commencement and duration
3.1 Your Subscription commences on the Start Date and continues until it is cancelled.
3.2 You may only use the Software while you have an active Subscription, and not during any period in which your use of the Software has been suspended under the Contract.
4. Use of the Software
4.1 In order to use the Software, you must have a Compatible Device and, to continue using the Software after the Trial Period, you must provide us with your Payment Method and pay the applicable Fees for your first billing cycle.
5. Payment
5.1 You authorize us, or the authorized Reseller you purchased the Software from, to charge you the Fees. We will charge you the Fees for each billing cycle to your Payment Method on the day before the relevant billing cycle (the Due Date), unless you cancel your Subscription before the Due Date. Where you are charged by a Reseller, the timing of the payment will be as agreed between you and the Reseller.
5.2 The amount of the Fees will depend on the plan you choose for the Subscription, and the duration of your billing cycle may also depend on your chosen plan. You acknowledge that your Due Date may not always be the same day of the month (for example, if a payment has failed, if your Subscription is suspended or if the Due Date would otherwise fall on a day that is not contained in that month).
5.3 If a payment is not made on the relevant Due Date (including because of an error in the details you gave us, credit or debit card expiry, insufficient funds, declined transaction, fraud or otherwise) and you did not cancel your Subscription before that Due Date, we may suspend your use of the Software from the end of the Due Date until we have successfully charged a valid Payment Method for the applicable Fees. We reserve the right to cancel your Subscription if we are unable to charge your Payment Method successfully.
5.4 For certain Payment Methods, you acknowledge that you may be charged additional fees by your bank or card issuer in connection with the processing of your payment and you agree to pay those fees.
Reseller means any third party we have authorized to resell the Software.
6. Compatible Devices
6.1 We may change the requirements for Compatible Devices from time to time and, in some cases, whether a device is or remains a Compatible Device may depend on the device manufacturer or other third parties.
6.2 You acknowledge that the quality of any content display may be affected by a number of factors, including the capabilities of the Compatible Device you use, your internet connection and where the display is positioned relative to other light sources.
7. Cancellation
7.1 You may cancel your Subscription at any time, and any cancellation takes effect from the end of the next Due Date.
7.2 We may also cancel your Subscription, by providing at least 90 days’ notice, either to the latest email address you have provided us, or by posting a notice in the Software, if we plan to cease offering the Software in the manner contemplated by this Contract, or cease offering the Subscription plan you have chosen. If we cease offering the Subscription plan you have chosen, we will use best efforts to offer a reasonably similar or equivalent plan.
7.3 To the maximum extent permitted by law and subject to clauses 14.2 and 14.4, all payments are non-refundable and you are not entitled to a refund or credit for any part of a billing cycle during which you do not use the Software.
8. Trial Period
8.1 Your Subscription may start with a Trial Period, during which no Fees are payable to use the Software. The duration of the Trial Period will be specified on the Start Date.
8.2 Unless your Subscription is cancelled before the end of the Trial Period or you have not provided us with a Payment Method by then, your Subscription will automatically continue on a paid subscription basis following the Trial Period and we will charge the Fees to your Payment Method at the end of the Trial Period.
9. Changes to Fees and Subscription plans
9.1 We may change the Fees and/or the Subscription plans available to you by giving you at least 90 days’ notice.
9.2 If you do not agree to a change, you must cancel your Subscription before the update or change takes effect.

10.1 We may offer Subscription plans with support services (Additional Support) from time to time. If so, we will provide Additional Support using our best efforts and all Additional Support is subject to the terms of this Contract including clause 14. You may only use Additional Support if it is part of your Subscription plan, but this does not limit or otherwise affect your rights under applicable laws (including the Consumer Guarantees).
11. Taxes
11.1 Unless otherwise stated, all fees are exclusive of GST. If any GST is payable on a supply we make under or in connection with this Contract, you must pay to us an additional amount equal to the GST payable on that supply (GST Amount) and we will issue a tax invoice to you if required to do so by the relevant GST Law. The GST Amount must be paid to us without set off, deduction or requirement for demand, at the same time as the GST-exclusive consideration is payable.
11.2 All payments made pursuant to this Contract must be made net of taxes, including withholding taxes.
11.3 Except for GST covered under clause 11.1 and our income tax, you are responsible for all taxes associated with fees related to this Contract. If we are required to pay any taxes (except for GST covered under clause 11.1 and our income tax), you will reimburse us for an amount equal to such taxes and will indemnify us for any taxes and related costs paid or payable by us attributable to those taxes.
12. Your responsibilities
12.1 You must not use the Software for any unlawful purpose or otherwise in contravention of the requirements of any of our licensors (see Legal Notices).
