Website Terms of Use
1. About these terms
These terms govern your use of hatmedia.com.au and any subdomains or pages operated by Hat Media ("Hat Media", "we", "us"). By accessing or using this website you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.
These terms cover use of the website only. Services we provide to clients are governed by a separate written agreement, and where that agreement conflicts with these terms, the agreement prevails.
2. Use of the website
You may use this website for lawful purposes, to learn about our services, and to contact us. You agree not to:
— use the site in a way that breaches any applicable law or regulation;
— attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site, its servers, or any connected system;
— introduce malicious code, or interfere with the operation or security of the site;
— scrape, harvest or extract data from the site by automated means without our written permission, other than by standard search engine indexing;
— reproduce, republish or redistribute our content other than as permitted in section 3;
— use the site or our contact forms to send unsolicited commercial messages.
We may suspend or restrict access to the site, or to any person, at our discretion and without notice.
3. Intellectual property
All content on this website — including text, graphics, logos, images, video, audio, frameworks, methodologies and software — is owned by Hat Media or its licensors and is protected by Australian and international copyright and trade mark law.
The Hat Media name and logo, and the names of our frameworks and publications, are trade marks of Hat Media. Third-party names, logos and trade marks appearing on the site remain the property of their respective owners and are used for identification only.
You may view, download and print pages for your own internal business or personal use. You may quote short extracts with clear attribution and a link to the source page. You may not otherwise copy, adapt, republish, sell or commercially exploit our content without our prior written consent.
4. Content accuracy and no advice
The content on this website is provided for general information. It reflects our views and experience at the time of publication and may not be current.
Nothing on this site constitutes professional, legal, financial or business advice, and it should not be relied on as a substitute for advice tailored to your circumstances. Statistics, benchmarks and research cited on this site are attributed to their sources where available, and we do not warrant the accuracy of third-party data.
Any results, case studies or performance figures describe outcomes achieved for specific clients in specific conditions. They are not a prediction or guarantee of results for anyone else.
5. Third-party links and services
This website contains links to third-party websites, platforms and embedded services, including podcast players, video platforms, social networks and scheduling tools. Those services are operated independently of us.
We provide links for convenience and do not endorse, control or accept responsibility for the content, availability, security or privacy practices of any third-party site. Your use of a third-party service is governed by that provider's own terms and privacy policy.
6. Privacy and cookies
Our collection, use and disclosure of personal information is described in our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these terms. The website uses cookies and analytics technologies as set out in that policy.
7. Forms, enquiries and subscriptions
Where you submit an enquiry, book a meeting or subscribe to our communications, you consent to us contacting you in connection with that request. You can unsubscribe from marketing communications at any time using the link in any email or by contacting us.
Please do not submit confidential or sensitive information through website forms. If you need to share confidential material, contact us to arrange a secure method.
8. Availability
We aim to keep the website available and accurate, but we do not warrant that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components. We may change, suspend or withdraw any part of the site at any time without notice.
9. Limitation of liability
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any guarantee, right or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law or other law that cannot lawfully be excluded.
Subject to that, to the maximum extent permitted by law: we exclude all warranties and representations not expressly set out in these terms; we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, or any loss of profit, revenue, data or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use this website; and our total liability arising in connection with this website is limited, at our option, to re-supplying the relevant information or paying the cost of having it re-supplied.
10. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify Hat Media against any loss, damage, cost or expense we incur as a result of your breach of these terms or your unlawful use of the website.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The current version will always be available on this page, and the date at the top shows when it was last changed. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
12. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. You submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales and any courts competent to hear appeals from them.
