Student Edge Plus Terms & Conditions

Introduction

1. Contract

   When you purchase and use our Student Edge Plus Services ("Services") you are deemed to agree to all of the below terms ("Terms"). Your use of our Services is also subject to, and are to be read in conjunction with, our Student Edge Website Terms and Conditions, our Privacy Policy and our Privacy Collection Statement, which covers how we collect, use, share, and store your personal information. In the event of any inconsistency between these Terms and the other terms listed above, these Terms will prevail to extent of that inconsistency.

   Registered users of our Student Edge Plus Services are referred to in this document as "Members" or "you" as applicable.

   Services are provided by Student Edge Pty Ltd (also referred to as "Student Edge", "we" or "us" as applicable).

1. Change
   We may modify these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes to the Terms, we will provide you notice through our Services, or by other means, to provide you the opportunity to review the changes before they become effective. We agree that changes cannot be retroactive. If you object to any changes, you may close your account. Your continued use of our Services after we publish or send a notice about our changes to these terms means that you are consenting to the updated terms as of their effective date.

Obligations

2. Service Eligibility

   The Services are not for use by anyone under the age of 11.

   To use the Services, you agree that: (1) you must be the "Minimum Age" or older; (2) you will only have one Student Edge account, which must be in your real name; and (3) you are not already restricted by Student Edge from using the Services. Creating an account with false information is a violation of our terms, including accounts registered on behalf of others or persons under the age of 11.

   "Minimum Age" means 11 years old.

   Any Member under the age of 18 must have consent of a parent or guardian to purchase the Services and confirm that the parent/guardian has read these Terms.

2. Your Account

   Members are account holders. You agree to: (1) use a strong password and keep it confidential; (2) not transfer any part of your account (e.g., connections) and (3) follow the law and our list of Dos and Don’ts set out in clause 8 below. You are responsible for anything that happens through your account unless you close it or report misuse.

   As between you and others, your account belongs to you. However, if the Services were purchased by another party for you to use (e.g. Parents, Guardians, School Administration), the party paying for such Service has the right to control access to and get reports on your use of such paid Service; however, they do not have the right to access your personal account without your consent.

2. Payment

   When you join as a Student Edge Plus Member, you agree to pay us the applicable fees and taxes and to the additional terms of the Website Terms & Conditions, Privacy Policy and Collection Statement specific to the Services. Failure to pay these fees will result in the termination of your Services. Fees will be advised to you at the time of payment.

   Please note that consent of a parent or guardian is required to purchase these Services if you are under 18. A credit card will be required, by providing credit card details you warrant that you have permission to provide these details or that your parent or guardian has provided these details themselves. Any Member over 18, or parent or guardian providing consent to a minor Member agrees to the following payment terms:

   • If you are based outside of Australia, your purchase may be subject to foreign exchange fees or differences in prices based on location (e.g. exchange rates).
   • Student Edge and our payment gateway provider will store and continue billing your payment method (e.g. credit card) even after it has expired, to avoid interruptions to your Services.
   • When you purchase a subscription to Student Edge Plus, your payment method automatically will be charged at the start of each subscription period for the fees and taxes applicable to that period. To avoid future charges, cancel before the renewal date. Learn how to cancel or suspend your Student Edge Plus Membership.
   • All of your purchases of Services are subject to Student Edge’s refund policy.
   • We may calculate taxes payable by you based on the billing information that you provide us at the time of purchase.
2. Notices and Messages

   You agree that we will provide notices and messages to you in the following ways: (1) within the Service, or (2) sent to the contact information you provided us (e.g., email, mobile number, physical address). You agree to keep your contact information up to date.

   Please review your settings to control and limit messages you receive from us.

2. Sharing

   Our Services allow sharing of information in many ways and content that you share or post may be seen by other Members, visitors or others (including off of the Services). Where we have made settings available, we will honour the choices you make about who can see content or information (e.g., message content to your addressees, sharing content only to Student Edge connections, restricting your profile visibility from search engines).

   We are not obligated to publish any information or content on our Service and can remove it with or without notice.

Rights and Limits

3. Your License to Student Edge

   As between you and Student Edge, you own the content and information that you submit or post to the Services, and you grant Student Edge and our affiliates a worldwide, transferable and sublicensable right to use, copy, modify, distribute, publish and process, information and content that you provide through our Services and the services of others, without any further consent, notice and/or compensation to you or others. These rights are limited in the following ways:

   1. You can end this license for specific content by deleting such content from the Services, or generally by closing your account, except (a) to the extent you shared it with others as part of the Service and they copied, re-shared it or stored it and (b) for the reasonable time it takes to remove from backup and other systems.
   2. We will not include your content in advertisements for the products and services of third parties to others without your separate consent (including sponsored content).
   3. We will get your consent if we want to give others the right to publish your content beyond the Services.
   4. While we may edit and make format changes to your content (such as translating or transcribing it, modifying the size, layout or file type or removing metadata), we will not modify the meaning of your expression.
   5. Because you own your content and information and we only have non-exclusive rights to it, you may choose to make it available to others.

   You and Student Edge agree that we may access, store, process and use any information and personal data that you provide in accordance with, the terms of the Privacy Policy and our Privacy Collection Statement and your choices (including settings).

   By submitting suggestions or other feedback regarding our Services to Student Edge, you agree that Student Edge can use and share (but does not have to) such feedback for any purpose without compensation to you.

   You promise to only provide information and content that you have the right to share, and that your Student Edge profile will be truthful.

   You agree to only provide content or information that does not violate the law nor anyone’s rights (including intellectual property rights).

3. Other Content, Sites and Apps

   Your use of others’ content and information posted on our Services, is at your own risk.

   Others may offer their own products and services through our Services, and we are not responsible for those third-party activities.

   By using the Services, you may encounter content or information that might be inaccurate, incomplete, delayed, misleading, illegal, offensive or otherwise harmful. Student Edge generally does not review content provided by our Members or others. You agree that we are not responsible for others’ (including other Members’) content or information. We cannot always prevent this misuse of our Services, and you agree that we are not responsible for any such misuse.

3. Limits
   Student Edge reserves the right to limit your use of the Services, including the number of your connections and your ability to contact other Members. Student Edge reserves the right to restrict, suspend, or terminate your account if you breach this Contract or the law or are misusing the Services (e.g., violating any of the Dos and Don’ts set out in section 8 below).
3. Intellectual Property Rights
   Student Edge retains ownership all of its intellectual property rights in the Services. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership to you at any time. Trademarks and logos used in connection with the Services are the trademarks of their respective owners. Student Edge, and Student Edge trademarks, service marks, graphics and logos used for our Services are trademarks or registered trademarks of Student Edge.
3. Automated Processing
   We use the information and data that you provide and that we have about Members to make recommendations for connections, content and features that may be useful to you. For example, we use data and information about you to recommend jobs to you and you to recruiters. Keeping your profile accurate and up to date helps us to make these recommendations more accurate and relevant.
