Terms & Conditions

1. Definitions

• Site means this website and all pages, content and functionality made available through it.
• Portal means the UCS field services portal made available to authorised users at the login link on this Site.
• Services means the telecommunication, network and electrical services described on this Site.
• You means any person who accesses the Site or the Portal.

2. Use of this website

You may use this Site for lawful purposes only, and for the purpose of learning about UCS and making legitimate enquiries about our Services. You must not use the Site in any way that breaches any applicable law, infringes the rights of any person, or interferes with the operation, security or availability of the Site.

We may change, suspend or withdraw any part of the Site at any time without notice. We do not guarantee that the Site will be available uninterrupted or free of errors.

3. Information on this website

The content on this Site is provided for general information only. While we take care to keep it accurate and current, we make no representation or warranty that it is complete, accurate, reliable or up to date, and it should not be relied upon as advice for your specific circumstances.

Descriptions of Services, capabilities, accreditations and past projects are indicative only. Nothing on this Site constitutes an offer capable of acceptance, and no contract for the supply of Services is formed until we issue a written quotation, purchase order or contract and it is accepted in writing.

4. Quotations and provision of services

Where we provide a quotation, that quotation and any contract we enter into with you are governed by their own terms. Where there is any inconsistency between those terms and these Terms and Conditions, the terms of the quotation or contract prevail in relation to the supply of Services.

Quotations are valid only for the period stated in them, are based on the information supplied to us at the time, and may be varied if site conditions, scope, access or regulatory requirements differ from those assumed.

5. Portal accounts and access

Access to the Portal is restricted to authorised employees, contractors and clients of UCS. If you are issued with account credentials, you agree that:

• You will keep your username and password confidential and will not share them with any other person.
• You are responsible for all activity that occurs under your account.
• You will notify us immediately if you become aware of any unauthorised use of your account or any other security breach.
• You will use the Portal only for the purposes for which access was granted, and only for as long as your engagement or contract with UCS continues.
• You will keep information you access through the Portal — including job, client, site and personal information — confidential, and will not copy, disclose or use it for any other purpose.

We may suspend or cancel your access at any time, including where your engagement ends or where we reasonably suspect misuse.

6. Prohibited conduct

You must not:

• Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the Site, the Portal, or any server, system or network connected to them.
• Introduce any virus, malware or other harmful code, or attempt to probe, scan or test the vulnerability of our systems.
• Use any automated system to scrape, harvest or copy content from the Site.
• Submit false, misleading or unlawful information through any form on the Site.
• Use the Site or any contact details published on it to send unsolicited commercial communications.
• Reproduce, republish or commercially exploit any part of the Site without our prior written consent.

7. Intellectual property

All content on this Site — including text, graphics, logos, images, layout, design and software — is owned by or licensed to UCS and is protected by Australian and international copyright and trade mark laws.

You may view, download and print pages from the Site for your own internal or personal use. Any other use, including reproduction, modification, distribution or transmission, is prohibited without our prior written permission. The UCS name and logo may not be used without our written consent.

8. Third-party links

The Site may contain links to third-party websites. Those links are provided for convenience only and do not imply any endorsement by us. We have no control over the content of those websites and accept no responsibility for them or for any loss arising from your use of them.

9. Disclaimer

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Site and its content are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the Site or the Portal will be secure, uninterrupted, timely, or free from errors, viruses or other harmful components.

10. Limitation of liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any guarantee, right or remedy you may have under the Australian Consumer Law or any other law that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.

Subject to that, to the maximum extent permitted by law, UCS and its directors, employees and contractors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special or consequential loss, or for any loss of profit, revenue, data or business, arising out of or in connection with your use of the Site or the Portal, however caused.

Where our liability cannot be excluded but can be limited, our liability is limited to re-supplying the relevant service or paying the cost of having it re-supplied.

11. Indemnity

You indemnify UCS against any claim, loss, damage, cost or expense (including reasonable legal costs) that we suffer or incur as a result of your breach of these Terms, your misuse of the Site or the Portal, or your breach of any law or third-party right in connection with that use.

12. Privacy

Any personal information collected through this Site or the Portal is handled in accordance with our Privacy Policy, which forms part of these Terms. Please read it to understand how we collect, use, disclose and protect your information.

13. Suspension and termination

We may restrict, suspend or terminate your access to the Site or the Portal at any time, without notice, if we consider that you have breached these Terms or that your access presents a risk to us, our clients or our systems. Clauses that by their nature should survive termination — including intellectual property, disclaimer, limitation of liability and indemnity — will continue to apply.

14. Changes to these terms

We may amend these Terms from time to time. The amended version takes effect from the date it is published on this page, and your continued use of the Site after that date constitutes acceptance of the changes. Please check this page periodically.

15. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Victoria, Australia. You submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Victoria and the courts able to hear appeals from them.

16. Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision is severed to the extent necessary and the remaining provisions continue in full force and effect.
