Terms of Use

1. About these terms

PhateSar is owned and operated by TauriX Digital Solutions (“we”, “us”), based in Victoria, Australia. By creating an account, replying to an invitation or otherwise using PhateSar you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy.

2. The service

PhateSar lets hosts create and share event invitations, collect RSVPs and send reminders. PhateSar is in early access and is free to use while it is. Features can change or be removed. If we introduce paid plans we will tell you at least 30 days before you could be charged, and we will never charge you without your agreement.

3. Accounts

Hosts sign in with an email link. You must be 18 or over, give us an email address you control, and keep your inbox secure. You are responsible for what happens under your account, including anything done by co-hosts you add, who can edit and send your invitation. Guests don’t need an account.

4. What hosts must do

If you create an invitation, you agree that:

• the content you add is lawful, accurate and not misleading, and you have the right to use it, including any photos and the consent of people clearly shown in them;
• you have a good reason to hold and share the contact details of guests you add, and you will handle them in line with privacy law;
• you will only add an email address if the person would reasonably expect to hear from you about your event, and you will not use PhateSar to send marketing, spam or chain messages;
• you will not use PhateSar to harass, threaten, defame or discriminate against anyone, or to share unlawful, hateful or sexually explicit material; and
• you will share personal links only with the person they were created for.

5. What guests must do

Reply honestly and only for people you can speak for. The name and details you enter will be shown to the host, and some will be shown to other guests, as described in the Privacy Policy.

6. Your content and our licence

You keep ownership of the content you add. You give us a limited, non-exclusive licence to store, display, copy and send it as needed to run PhateSar, for example to show your invitation to guests, include it in reminder emails and keep backups. The licence ends when your content is deleted from our systems. We may remove content that breaks these terms or the law.

The PhateSar name, logo, designs and software belong to us or our licensors. You may not copy them except as these terms allow.

7. Acceptable use

Don’t attempt to break into, overload, scrape or disrupt PhateSar, bypass its limits or security, upload malware, or use it for anything unlawful. We may suspend or remove access, or content, if we reasonably think these terms have been broken or that someone is at risk.

8. Availability and things to check yourself

We take reasonable care to keep PhateSar running but can’t promise it will always be available or error free. Reminder emails are sent on a best-effort basis and may be delayed, filtered or not delivered, so please confirm anything important with your guests directly. Dish lists and notes written by hosts and guests are not allergen or dietary information; check with the person who prepared the food.

9. Ending your use

You can stop using PhateSar at any time and delete your invitations from the dashboard. You can email us to remove your account. We may suspend or end your access if you breach these terms, if we are required to by law, or if we stop providing the service (we will give reasonable notice where we can). When access ends we may delete your content.

10. Australian Consumer Law and liability

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any right or remedy, or any guarantee, warranty or other term or condition, that you have under the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or any other law, and that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted or modified.

Subject to that, and to the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for loss arising from an event going ahead, being cancelled, or not being communicated to guests (including missed or late reminders), or from content added by hosts or guests.

11. Privacy

Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal information. It forms part of these terms.

12. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. If a change is material we will give hosts at least 14 days’ notice by email or on the website before it applies. If you keep using PhateSar after a change applies you accept it; if you don’t agree, stop using PhateSar and delete your invitations.

13. Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. If you have a concern, please email us first at privacy@phatesar.app and we will try to resolve it. Each of us submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Victoria and the Commonwealth courts sitting there.

14. General

If part of these terms is found to be unenforceable, the rest still applies. These terms and the Privacy Policy are our whole agreement with you about PhateSar. Questions about these terms: privacy@phatesar.app.
