The Doshii Service is provided “as is” and “as available” and without warranties of any kind either express or implied.

If you are a Consumer, as that term is defined under Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth), additional guarantees (Statutory Guarantee) may apply to the Doshii Service. If this is the case, then our services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. For major failures with the Doshii Service, you are entitled: to cancel your service contract with us; and to a refund for the unused portion, or to compensation for its reduced value. You are also entitled to be compensated for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. If the failure does not amount to a major failure, you are entitled to have problems with the Doshii Service rectified in a reasonable time and, if this is not done, to cancel your contract and obtain a refund for the unused portion of the contract. If the Doshii Service fails to meet any Statutory Guarantee, and the services are not of the kind ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use, Doshii’s liability to you for failure to meet such Statutory Guarantee is limited to doing any one or more of the following (at Doshii’s election): (i) the re-supply of the services; or (ii) the payment of the cost of re-supplying the services.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by Law, Doshii’s aggregate liability to you or any third party (whether in contract, tort, negligence or otherwise) arising out of these Terms in no event will exceed the Fees paid to Doshii (either by you or on your behalf) during the 12 months prior to the first event or occurrence, or series of events or occurrences, giving rise to such liability.
Doshii specifically disclaims responsibility for liability that relates to your inability to use the Doshii Service (which are provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis) even if Doshii has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
Except for liability arising under an indemnity, neither party is liable for Consequential Loss. However, nothing in this clause 9(c) prevents the recovery by Doshii of the costs of recreating or reloading any lost or damaged Platform Data, or any regulatory or governmental penalties or fines.
Nothing in these Terms is intended to have the effect of contracting out of any applicable provisions of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth), or the Fair Trading Acts in each of the States and Territories of Australia, except to the extent permitted by those Acts where applicable.

If you do not agree with the updated Terms, you may cancel your Doshii Account and access to the Doshii Service at any time by emailing support@doshii.com.

Clauses 5 (Data and Confidentiality), 6 (Intellectual Property), 12 (Indemnity) and 13 (General) shall survive any termination of these Terms with respect to use of the Doshii Service by you. Termination shall not limit either parties’ liability for obligations accrued as of or prior to such termination or for any breach of these Terms.
