Whilst CRIS intends that the Services should be available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, it is possible that on occasions the Services or Website may be unavailable to permit maintenance or other development activity to take place.
If for any reason CRIS has to interrupt the Services for longer periods than CRIS would normally expect, CRIS will use reasonable endeavours to publish in advance details of such activity on the Website.
These Terms, together with the CRIS Privacy Policy and the terms of any other notices or instructions given to you under these Terms of Use, supersede and extinguish all prior agreements, representations (whether oral or written), and understandings and constitute the entire agreement between you and CRIS relating to the Services and the other matters dealt with in these Terms.
If either party waives any breach of these Terms, this will not constitute a waiver of any other breach. No waiver will be effective unless made in writing.
Neither party will be liable for any delay or failure in performance of its obligations under these Terms if the delay or failure is due to any cause outside its reasonable control. This clause does not apply to any obligation to pay money.
You may not assign or transfer any rights to any other person without CRIS’s prior written consent.
This Agreement is governed by the laws of Australia and you hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Australia for all disputes arising out of or in connection with this Agreement.
If any part or provision of these Terms is invalid, unenforceable or in conflict with the law, that part or provision is replaced with a provision which, as far as possible, accomplishes the original purpose of that part or provision. The remainder of this Agreement will be binding on the parties.
Any notice given under these Terms by either party to the other must be in writing by email and will be deemed to have been given on transmission. Notices to CRIS must be sent to support@everbettersystems.com or to any other email address notified by email to you by CRIS.
