2. MEMBERSHIP

2.1. ArchiPro shall provide, and the Customer shall have access to, the Online Services and related deliverables associated with the Customer’s chosen Membership. Membership commences when the Customer signs and accepts a quote for their selected Membership, including acceptance of the terms of this Agreement (“Commencement Date”). Where a Customer’s Membership includes the following Online Services, the Customer acknowledges and agrees that additional terms shall apply as follows:

(a) for the Advertising Services, the terms set out in Schedule 1 shall apply; and
(b) for the Ecommerce Service, the terms set out in Schedule 2 shall apply,

and in each case those terms will be in addition to, and not in substitution of, the terms and conditions herein.

2.2. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that ArchiPro may, from time to time and for any reason:

(a) amend the description and applicable deliverables of each tier of Membership;
(b) change the terms and conditions of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the terms of the Privacy Policy and Website Terms of Use); and
(c) change the nature and extent of the Online Services, including adding, removing or discontinuing any feature (whether in whole or part), 

in each case upon written notice to the Customer. 

2.3. Subject to clause 2.4 below, any changes to this Agreement, your Membership or the Online Services in accordance with clause 2.2 will be effective immediately upon our giving you notice of such amendments. Your continued use of the Online Services after receiving notice of such amendments constitutes your acceptance of such amendments. 

2.4. Unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Customer, any amendments referred to in clause 2.2 above which we consider (acting reasonably) will materially affect the Membership will apply with effect on and from the next Renewal Date. Where you do not agree with any such amendments, you may exercise your right to terminate this Agreement in accordance with clause 4 below.

2.5. ArchiPro will use all reasonable endeavours to confirm that you wish to renew your Membership prior to a Renewal Date. Your Membership shall automatically renew on each Renewal Date unless:

(a) you or we have terminated the Agreement in accordance with clause 4 below; or
(b) you have elected to change your Membership by notice in writing to us not less than 30 days prior to the Renewal Date.

3. MEMBERSHIP FEES AND PAYMENT

3.1. The Customer shall pay the applicable Membership Fees, in advance, for each year of Membership. The initial annual term may include eight weeks free membership and accordingly be for a 14-month term rather than 12 months, allowing time for the Customer’s profile to be ready to go live. If a Customer’s profile is not live after the initial free month, the Membership will commence regardless, and Membership Fees are payable as per the Invoice.

3.2. Unless otherwise agreed with ArchiPro, the Customer shall select one of the following payment options:
(a) Option A;
Upfront Payment: The Customer shall pay the annual Membership Fees in one lump sum in accordance with the Invoice issued at Membership confirmation.
(b) Option B:
Monthly Payments: Only applicable to Customers who enrol a credit card for auto billing at the time of Membership acceptance and throughout the duration of their Membership. ArchiPro will issue an Invoice to the Customer for the annual Membership Fees with an initial deposit payment of two months’ Membership Fees due immediately, and a schedule of monthly payments for the balance of Fees due for the annual term, with payment due each month in advance. 
Where the initial term includes two free months, the third month and fourteenth month of Membership will not be charged to you. The balance of Membership Fees is payable monthly in advance from the fourth month of Membership onwards. 

Where the Customer does not select or confirm a payment option, Option A will apply as the default option.  All Invoices are to be paid in accordance with the instructions set out in the relevant Invoice. All Invoice payments are to be made in full, without set-off or deduction.

3.3. The Customer acknowledges and agrees that ArchiPro may, from time to time, amend the applicable Membership Fees for any reason and, unless otherwise agreed in writing with the Customer, any such amendment to the Membership Fees will apply to the Membership from the next Renewal Date.
 
3.4. Where any Membership Fees are not paid by the due date specified in an Invoice, then:

(a) if the Invoice relates to any initial payment on commencement of a Membership (whether a deposit payment or lump sum payment), ArchiPro will delay the commencement of the Customer’s access to the relevant Online Services until payment of the Membership Fees is received by ArchiPro. Non-payment, or a delay in the commencement of the Customer’s access to the Online Services, will not result in a delay to the Commencement Date or any extension of the term of the Membership. 
(b) if the Customer’s Profile is live on ArchiPro and the Invoice is overdue by 30 days, with notice of outstanding payment, ArchiPro will disable the Customer’s Profile and suspend access to all other Online Services until payment for the outstanding Invoice is received in full. 
(c) if the Invoice is overdue by 45 days (including an Invoice for an initial payment, whether by deposit or lump sum), ArchiPro may, at its sole discretion, take debt recovery action against the Customer.

4. TERMINATION

4.1. We may terminate this Agreement and your Membership with immediate effect by notice in writing to you at any time where we consider (acting reasonably) that you are in breach of the terms of this Agreement (including, for the avoidance of doubt, the Privacy Policy, Website Terms of Use and any other specific terms expressly agreed in writing between ArchiPro and the Customer).

4.2. You may terminate this Agreement and your Membership by giving ArchiPro notice in writing of such termination not less than two months before the Renewal Date, with such termination to take effect at the end of the then current term of your Membership (and not earlier). If you give us notice of termination outside the time frame specified in this clause 4.2, we may, in our absolute discretion, accept or reject such notice of termination. Where we elect to reject such notice, your Membership will be deemed to renew and continue in full force and effect on and from the next Renewal Date and you shall be obliged to pay any associated Membership Fees.  For the avoidance of doubt, if you elect to terminate part way through the term of the Membership and not within two months of the Renewal Date, then:

(a) in the case of a monthly payment Membership (Option B payment terms under clause 3.2(a)), you remain liable for any remaining payments until the end of the then current term; and 
(b) in the case of a lump sum payment Membership (Option A payment terms under clause 3.2(b)), you shall not be entitled to a refund of the Membership Fee already paid (whether in whole or in part).

4.3. Following termination of your Membership in accordance with clause 4.1 or clause 4.2 (as the case may be), you will cease to have access to the Online Services, and your Customer Profile and, to the extent it is possible to do so, any other Content will be removed from the Online Services.

4.4. Termination of this Agreement and your Membership will not affect clauses 7 to 15 (inclusive) of this Agreement, which are intended to survive termination.

5. CUSTOMER PROFILE

5.1. Where your Membership includes the establishment and maintenance of a Customer Profile, you may, by notice to ArchiPro on or before the commencement of your Membership, choose:
(a) for ArchiPro to have primary responsibility for the creation of that Customer Profile, in which case the terms of clause 5.2 shall apply; or
(b) to have primary responsibility for the creation of your own Customer Profile, in which case the terms of clause 5.3 shall apply to the creation of that Customer Profile, and
in either case, you warrant and represent to ArchiPro that you are a principal or employee of the Customer who is authorised to create, or approve the creation of, the Customer Profile for and on behalf of the relevant Customer.

(b) once we are satisfied that your Customer Profile is complete and is in a state which we consider is ready to ‘go live’ on the ArchiPro website, we will send you a website link containing the draft profile for you to review.  At this stage, we will make any changes to your Customer Profile that are reasonably requested by you; and
(c) upon receipt by us of your confirmation that you are satisfied with your Customer Profile, your Customer Profile will ‘go live’ on the ArchiPro Website and we will provide you with a username and login information to enable you to update and maintain your Customer Profile should you need to do so.

5.3. Where the Customer wishes to build their own Customer Profile and has notified us of its intention to do so in accordance with clause 5.1(b):
(a) we will set up the basic parameters of your Customer Profile (including logo placement, company image, your contact details and other Customer related information);
(b) once the basic parameters of your Customer Profile have been established, we will provide you administration access through a website link to enable you to complete your Customer Profile in its draft state.  You will be solely responsible for uploading and modifying any Content to and on your Customer Profile at this stage;
(c) once you are satisfied that your Customer Profile is complete and is ready to ‘go live’ on the ArchiPro Website, we will be notified and required to approve the Customer Profile and its Content to ensure it meets our quality, size and general content requirements; and
(d) once we are satisfied that your Customer Profile meets our requirements, your Customer Profile will ‘go live’ on the ArchiPro Website.

5.4. Irrespective of whether ArchiPro or the Customer is responsible for the creation of the Customer Profile:
(a) you may update, amend, edit, or otherwise alter your Customer Profile at any time during your Membership, subject to the requirements relating to Content set out in clause 7 below and our approval of such changes as may be required from time to time; and
(b) we will provide ongoing support and maintenance of your Customer Profile upon request from you within the Content Loading limits set out in your Invoice.

5.5. ArchiPro does not guarantee specific placements of your Customer Profile or Content on the Online Services except where such placements are paid for as part of your Membership.

14.4. To the extent permitted by law, any conditions, warranties, guarantees, rights, remedies, liabilities and other terms implied or conferred by statute, custom or the general law that impose any liability or obligation on us are excluded under this Agreement. However, if a supply under this Agreement is a supply of goods or services to a consumer within the meaning of the ACL, nothing contained in this Agreement excludes, restricts or modifies the application of any provision, the exercise of any right or remedy, or the imposition of any liability under the ACL, provided that, to the extent that the ACL permits us to limit our liability, then ArchiPro’s liability is limited to:

15. DISPUTES

However, where the dispute has not been resolved within 4 weeks of the dispute first arising, the dispute may be referred by either party to the Resolution Institute (ACN 008 651 232), for facilitation of arbitration in accordance with the Resolution Institute's Arbitration Rules. Such arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbiter appointed by mutual agreement of ArchiPro and the Customer or, failing agreement, either party may request a nomination from the Chair of the Resolution Institute.

16.3. Where a party is required under this Agreement to pay or reimburse an expense or outgoing of another party, the amount to be paid or reimbursed by the first party will be the sum of the amount of the expense or outgoing less any input tax credits in respect of the expense or outgoing to which the other party, or to which the representative member for a GST group of which the other party is a member, is entitled.

17. MISCELLANEOUS

17.1. The Customer is not permitted to assign any of its rights or obligations under the Agreement without the prior written consent of ArchiPro. A change in the Customer’s effective ownership or control will be deemed an assignment for the purposes of this clause. ArchiPro may assign, transfer, licence or subcontract any and all of its rights and obligations under the Agreement (including any Customer indebtedness) by notice to the Customer but without requiring the Customer’s consent. Each of ArchiPro’s assignees and transferees will have the same rights and remedies against the Customer as ArchiPro has under the Agreement.

17.2. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then such provision shall be deemed to be amended to the extent required to cure such invalidity, illegality or unenforceability and the validity, existence, legality and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not be affected, prejudiced or impaired.

17.3. No waiver of any breach of, or failure to enforce any provision of, the Agreement at any time by either party shall in any way limit the right of such party thereafter to enforce and compel strict compliance with the provisions of the Agreement.

17.4. The Agreement is governed by, and is to be construed in accordance with, the laws of the State of Victoria, Australia and each party submits to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of the State of Victoria, Australia or the Commonwealth of Australia and any courts of appeal from these courts.

You must confirm your acceptance of, or identify any required changes to, the relevant advertisement in writing within the timeframes notified to you by us at the time of delivery of the proof.

In any event, the Customer must notify ArchiPro immediately of any such defect or matter arising out of the relevant advertisement and ArchiPro will use reasonable means to rectify the advertisement to the extent that it is possible to do so. 

3.4. We allow two rounds of reasonable feedback within one week of receiving the initial proof, however the feedback must comply with our Advertising Guidelines and are not guaranteed to be accepted.

A third party ad-serving engine may also be used but its impression count won’t be recognised unless we agree otherwise in writing. You acknowledge and agree that any calculation of advertising impressions will be measured on the basis of content placed both on-platform and through partner channels, including but not limited to Facebook, Google, our CRM platforms (ie Hubspot, Mailchimp).

5.2. You must tell us as soon as possible if there is an error or omission in any Content which you have provided to us, or which we have used on your behalf, as part of any Advertising Service.
