Terms of use

1 About these Terms of Use

This website is owned and operated by Learning Frameworks Pty Ltd T/A CrackerSystems (we, us).

These Terms of Use set out the terms by which we will agree to provide you, an individual accessing this website, with the services available via this website (our services).

By using our services, you are entering into an agreement with us which incorporates, and which is governed by, these Terms of Use.

 

2 Using our services

You may only use or attempt to use our services in accordance with these Terms of Use.

We appreciate you may have specific goals and aims which you hope to achieve when using our services. While our services will help you get there, using our services alone will not guarantee results. You should combine the use of our services with coaching from a qualified professional and lots of practice and hard work to ensure you reach your maximum potential.

 

3 Your account

To open an account all you need to do is complete the online registration process by accurately providing all information requested. You must indicate that you accept these Terms of Use when prompted during the online application process.

 

3.1 Security of your account

Only you may use your account with us. You are solely responsible for the activity that occurs in relation to your account and you must keep your account details secret and secure. You must notify us immediately of any breach of security or unauthorised use of your account. Although we will not be liable for any loss to you caused by unauthorised use of your account, you may be liable for loss to us or others caused by such unauthorised use.

 

4 Social networking

Our services include a facility which you can use to interact, communicate and engage with other users of this website (social networking facility).

 

4.1 Customising your settings

Our social networking facility can be customised in a number of ways depending on how you wish to use it. For example, select preferences for notifications and profile settings.

 

4.2 Safety

We do our best to ensure our social networking facility provides a safe environment for all users. However, because we are unable generally to control actions by third parties, we cannot guarantee safety.

To help promote a safe environment you must not use our social networking facility to bully, intimidate, denigrate or harass other users or to publish, promote or link to any Content which does not comply with clause 6.4 below. We may immediately terminate your account if you do not comply with these requirements (in accordance with clause 12.2 below).

 

5 Resources library

Our services include a facility which you can use to search and browse a catalogue of materials and resources (Library). The resources library could contain both free resources and paid resources for which you must pay.

 

5.1 Free resources

You can access free resources by clicking on the applicable link within the resources library.

If we display any disclaimers or notices in relation to free resources, those disclaimers and notices are deemed to form part of these Terms of Use (but only to the extent they are not inconsistent), and you must therefore comply with them. You also need to comply with the requirements in section 6 below when accessing free resources.

 

5.2 Types of paid resources

There are two types of paid resources catalogued in the resources library:

  • (a) paid resources which you can purchase directly; and
  • (b) paid resources offered by external suppliers.

 

5.3 Purchasing paid resources

You can purchase paid resources as indicated in the resources library. Prices for paid resources are shown in Australian dollars, include GST and are subject to change without notice.

We only accept payments by credit cards accepted by our payment gateway provider. Depending on your circumstances, you may have to pay additional exchange rate costs and fees as charged by your credit card issuer. We will not be liable for any costs associated with exchange rates. Currency exchange settlements are based on your agreement with your payment method provider.

This website uses Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) technology software for information transmission. Information submitted through this website (including your credit card details) is encrypted using the same 128-bit security commonly used by banks. For your protection, purchases made using your credit card may be delayed slightly to allow us time to check your billing information with your financial institution.

We will not accept returns or provide you with a refund if you simply change your mind about a paid resource you purchased. However, you do have rights under the Australian Consumer Law (as contained in Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)), and nothing in these Terms of Use affects or limits those rights. If required by law to provide you a refund, we will process the refund by reverse transaction through the payment method used for your original purchase.

 

5.4 Paid resources from external suppliers

To access paid resources from external suppliers, you need to follow the relevant links to the external third party websites from which those resources may be then purchased.

The appearance of paid resources in the resources library does not constitute either an invitation to treat by us or an offer by us to supply you with those resources for valuable consideration or otherwise. Paid resources are catalogued in the resources library merely to assist you in locating an independent supplier (such as Amazon or iTunes) from whom you may be able to purchase or acquire those resources. The purchase of paid resources will be subject to any terms and conditions of the relevant supplier, and also the stock availability of the supplier. We do not warrant that you will be able to acquire any of the paid resources which are catalogued in the resources library, or that you will be able to purchase them for the prices displayed in the resources library (which prices we include as a guide only and are based on the prices provided to us by the relevant independent suppliers).
