Last updated 27 August 2024
1. Introduction
Welcome to Grossard Education Pty Ltd! Please carefully read the following, which should take approximately 20 minutes.
These Terms of Service ("Terms", " Terms of Service") govern your use of Mappen and Tudio, via https://getmappen.com and https://tudio.com, operated by Grossard Education Pty Ltd.
Our Privacy Policy also governs your use of our Service and explains how we collect, safeguard and disclose information that results from your use of our web pages. Please read it here https://getmappen.com/privacy.
Your agreement with us includes these Terms and our Privacy Policy (" Agreements"). You acknowledge that you have read and understood Agreements, and agree to be bound of them.
If you do not agree with (or cannot comply with) Agreements, then you may not use Mappen or Tudio, but please let us know by emailing at info@getmappen.com so we can try to find a solution. These Terms apply to all visitors, users and others who wish to access or use Mappen or Tudio.
2. Communications
By creating an account or subscription to Mappen or Tudio, you agree to subscribe to newsletters, marketing or promotional materials and other information we may send. However, you may unsubscribe from any or all of these communications at any time.
3. Purchases
If you wish to purchase any product or service made available by Grossard Education Pty Ltd, such as Mappen or Tudio, ("Purchase"), you may be asked to supply certain information relevant to your organisation.
You represent and warrant that: (i) you have the legal right to use any credit card(s) or other payment method(s) in connection with any Purchase; and that (ii) the information you supply to us is true, correct and complete.
We may employ the use of third party services for the purpose of facilitating payment and the completion of Purchases. By submitting your information, you grant us the right to provide the information to these third parties subject to our Privacy Policy.
We reserve the right to refuse or cancel your order at any time for reasons including but not limited to: product or service availability, errors in the description or price of the product or service, error in your order or other reasons.
We reserve the right to refuse or cancel your order if fraud or an unauthorised or illegal transaction is suspected.
4. Contests, Sweepstakes and Promotions
Any contests, sweepstakes or other promotions (collectively, "Promotions") made available through Mappen and Tudio may be governed by rules that are separate from these Terms of Service. If you participate in any Promotions, please review the applicable rules as well as our Privacy Policy. If the rules for a Promotion conflict with these Terms of Service, Promotion rules will apply.
5. Subscriptions
Access to Mappen and Tudio are billed on a subscription basis ("Subscription(s)"). You will be billed in advance on a recurring and periodic basis ("Billing Cycle"). Billing cycles are set on an annual basis.
At the end of each Billing Cycle, your Subscription will automatically renew under the exact same conditions unless you cancel it, request a change of conditions, or Grossard Education Pty Ltd cancels it. You or your team’s Coordinator may cancel your Subscription renewal either through your online account management page or by contacting Grossard Education Pty Ltd customer support team on support@getmappen.com.
A valid payment method is required to process the payment for your Subscription. You shall provide Grossard Education Pty Ltd with accurate and complete billing information including full name and valid payment information. By submitting such payment information, you automatically authorise Grossard Education Pty Ltd to charge all Subscription fees incurred through your account to any such payment instruments.
Should automatic billing fail to occur for any reason, Grossard Education Pty Ltd will issue an electronic invoice requesting full payment corresponding to the billing period as indicated on the invoice, within a specified timeframe, after which the Subscription will be cancelled if no payment is received.
6. Fee Changes
Grossard Education Pty Ltd, in its sole discretion and at any time, may modify Subscription fees for the Subscriptions. Any Subscription fee change will become effective at the end of the then-current Billing Cycle.
Grossard Education Pty Ltd will provide you with a reasonable prior notice of any change in Subscription fees to give you an opportunity to terminate your Subscription before such change becomes effective.
Continued use of Service after a Subscription fee change comes into effect constitutes your agreement to pay the modified Subscription fee amount.
7. Refunds
Except when required by law, paid Subscription fees are non-refundable.
8. Content
Mappen and Tudio allow you to post, link, store, share and otherwise make available certain documents, text, attachments or other material ("Content"). You are responsible for Content that you post on or through Mappen or Tudio, including its legality, reliability, and appropriateness.
By posting Content on or through Mappen or Tudio, You represent and warrant that: (i) Content is yours (you own it) and/or you have the right to use it and the right to grant us the rights and license as provided in these Terms, and (ii) that the posting of your Content on or through Mappen or Tudio does not violate the privacy rights, publicity rights, copyrights, contract rights or any other rights of any person or entity. We reserve the right to terminate the account of anyone found to be infringing copyright.
You retain any and all of your rights to any Content you submit, post or display on or through Mappen or Tudio and you are responsible for protecting those rights. We take no responsibility and assume no liability for Content you or any third party posts on or through Mappen or Tudio. However, by posting Content using Mappen or Tudio you grant us the right and license to use, modify, publicly perform, publicly display, reproduce, and distribute such Content on and through Mappen or Tudio. You agree that this license includes the right for us to make your Content available to other users of Mappen or Tudio, who may also use your Content subject to these Terms.
Grossard Education Pty Ltd has the right but not the obligation to monitor and edit all Content provided by users.
In addition, Content found on or through Mappen or Tudio are the property of Grossard Education Pty Ltd or used with permission. You may not distribute, modify, transmit, reuse, download, repost, copy, or use said Content, whether in whole or in part, for commercial purposes or for personal gain, without express advance written permission from us.
9. Subscription quantities and Fair Use Policy
Grossard Education Pty Ltd, under the brands Mappen and Tudio, offers:
a) individual subscriptions. Individual subscriptions are for use with one classroom only.
b) multi-classroom subscriptions. Multi-classroom subscriptions are billed based on the number of classrooms benefitting from MAPPEN - not based on the number of required logins.
While we provide flexibility at our discretion for logins to be utilised by more than one educator on occasion (for example by casual relief or job sharing teachers managing a single classroom) it is not considered fair use for subscription numbers to be purchased for one individual (for example, a Learning Specialist or Team Leader), where the benefit of use extends to multiple classrooms or year groups. For example, four Learning Specialists or Team Leaders with responsibility for (and intention to use MAPPEN in) three classrooms each amounts to a 12-classroom license.
Grossard Education Pty Ltd periodically monitors the use of account logins and content access in order to assess infraction of this Fair Use Policy. If infraction is determined, we reserve the right to cancel access immediately and terminate a subscription without refund.
10. Prohibited Uses
