2. Acceptance
By accessing or using the Platform as a Customer, a User, or a Participant, that Customer, User, or

agrees to be bound by these Terms to the extent they apply to their access and use. If a person does
not agree,
that person must not use the Platform.
3. Accounts, Authentication & Access Control
Access to the Platform is provided using different login methods depending on whether access is
being used by a
Customer, a User, or a Participant. Each Customer is responsible for ensuring that its Users and
Participants
access the Platform only in accordance with these Terms.
3.1 Participants (one-time PIN access)
-
How a Participant accesses: A Participant accesses the Platform using the email
address registered with
the relevant Customer Referral Program and a one-time PIN sent to that email
address.
-
Email account security: Because Participant access is tied to the Participant’s
email account, the Participant
is responsible for keeping that email account secure and preventing unauthorised access to it.
-
No sharing or proxy access: A Participant must not share access, forward
one-time PINs, or allow any other person
to access the Platform on the Participant’s behalf.
-
Participant responsibility for activity: A Participant is responsible for all
activity and actions taken using
that Participant’s access, whether or not the Participant authorised that activity.
-
Request removal when access is no longer wanted: If a Participant no longer
wishes to have access to a Customer’s
referral program area, the Participant is responsible for promptly notifying the Customer and
requesting that the Customer remove
the Participant’s access.
3.2 Customers and Users (email + password access)
-
How a Customer/User accesses: A Customer and its authorised Users access the
Platform using an email address and password.
-
Credential confidentiality: The Customer and each User must keep passwords and
login credentials confidential, must not share
them with any other person, and must not reuse credentials in a manner that materially increases
security risk.
-
Account integrity: The Customer must ensure the information associated with the
Customer account remains accurate and current.
Each User must ensure the information associated with that User’s access remains accurate and
current where applicable.

Customer responsibility for activity: The Customer is responsible for all
activity occurring under the Customer account and under
all User access it creates or authorises, whether or not the Customer specifically authorised
that activity.
-
Authorised Users only: The Customer must ensure each User is properly
authorised, and complies with these Terms and all applicable law.
3.3 Customer responsibility for access restrictions (Users & Participants)
Access control is the Customer’s responsibility. The Customer must maintain
accurate access restrictions at all times,
including who may access referral program data, referral status, rewards, and any
Participant-facing areas.
-
The Customer must promptly remove or disable access for any User who is no longer authorised
(for example, due to a role change,
termination, or contractor engagement ending).
-
The Customer must promptly remove any Participant who requests removal or who no longer
wishes to have access to the Platform.
-
The Customer must implement internal processes appropriate to its business to manage
permissions, including periodic review of access.
3.4 Security notifications
-
The Customer must notify us without undue delay if the Customer suspects unauthorised access,
misuse, or compromise of any Customer account
or any User credentials.
-
A Participant must notify the relevant Customer without undue delay if the Participant suspects
unauthorised access to the Participant’s email
account or misuse of the Participant’s Platform access.
-
We may suspend or restrict access where we reasonably believe there is a security risk, misuse,
or unauthorised access.

laws);

- upload or transmit malware or attempt to disrupt the Platform;

5. Customer Referral Programs
The Platform provides tools to create and manage Customer Referral Programs. Unless we explicitly
agree in writing:
- We are not a party to any agreement between a Customer and its Participants.
-
Each Customer Referral Program is created and operated solely by the Customer,
including the offer,
eligibility rules, qualification criteria, and fulfillment of rewards.

The Customer is responsible for the Customer’s own terms presented to
Participants (including program rules,
disclosures, and eligibility requirements).
6. Customer Obligations
The Customer must, at the Customer’s own cost:

misleading;

ensure the Customer has all rights, consents, and lawful bases needed to provide Customer

the Platform; (c) the Platform is being used unlawfully; or (d) the use creates risk or
potential liability for us or others.
