You must register as a Host, Operator or Facilitator.

Skoutli reserves the right to accept or reject your request to register for an Account at its sole discretion and Skoutli may request additional information from you before accepting or rejecting your request to register for an Account. Failure to provide such information is likely to result in rejection of your request.

You may register to join the Platform directly or as described in this section.

If displayed on the Platform, you can also register to join by logging into your account with third-party social networking sites (“SNS “) (including, but not limited to, Facebook, Google) (each such account, a “Third-Party Account”). As part of the functionality of the Platform, you may link your Account with Third-Party Accounts, by either: (i) providing your Third-Party Account login information to Skoutli through the Site, Services or Application; or (ii) allowing Skoutli to access your Third-Party Account, as permitted under the applicable terms and conditions that govern your use of each Third-Party Account.

You represent that you are entitled to disclose your Third-Party Account login information to Skoutli and/or grant Skoutli access to your Third-Party Account (including, but not limited to, for use for the purposes described herein), without breach by you of any of the terms and conditions that govern your use of the applicable Third-Party Account and without obligating Skoutli to pay any fees or making Skoutli subject to any usage limitations imposed by such third-party service providers.

By granting Skoutli access to any Third-Party Accounts, you understand that Skoutli will access, make available and store (if applicable) any Content that you have provided to and stored in your Third-Party Account (“SNS Content “).

Please note that if a Third-Party Account or associated service becomes unavailable or Skoutli’ access to such Third-Party Account is terminated by the third-party service provider, then SNS Content will no longer be available on and through the Platform.

You have the ability to disable the connection between your Account and your Third-Party Accounts, at any time, by notifying us.

PLEASE NOTE THAT YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS ASSOCIATED WITH YOUR THIRD-PARTY ACCOUNTS IS GOVERNED SOLELY BY YOUR AGREEMENT(S) WITH SUCH THIRD-PARTY SERVICE PROVIDERS.

Skoutli makes no effort to review any SNS Content for any purpose, including but not limited to for accuracy, legality or non-infringement and Skoutli is not responsible for any SNS Content.

Your Account and your Skoutli profile page will be created for your use of the Platform based upon the personal information you provide to us or that we obtain via a SNS as described above. You may not have more than one (1) active Account. You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information during the registration process and to update such information to keep it accurate, current and complete. Skoutli reserves the right to suspend or terminate your Account and your access to the Platform if you create more than one (1) Account, or if any information provided during the registration process or thereafter proves to be inaccurate, fraudulent, not current, incomplete, or otherwise in violation of these Terms.

You are responsible for safeguarding your password. You agree that you will not disclose your password to any third party.

As a Host, you may create Listings. To create a Listing, you will be asked a variety of questions that may include the location, capacity, size, features, availability and pricing and related rules and financial terms. All Listings must reflect the lowest advertised rate for the booking of the applicable listing. Listings will be made publicly available via the Platform (including directly by Skoutli to Operators and Facilitators). You understand and agree that the placement or ranking of Listings in search results may depend on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, Members preferences, ratings and/or ease of booking.

Other Members (i.e. Facilitators and Operators) will be able to book your listing via the Platform based upon the information provided in your Listing, your Operator requirements, and Operators’ search parameters and preferences.

From time to time, Facilitators may make Bookings on behalf of undisclosed operators. Where an operator is undisclosed (i.e. not an Operator Member) Facilitators are bound to these Terms as if they are the Operator and must ensure that any third-party operators are made aware of and comply with these Terms in connection with the Booking. The Facilitator indemnifies and holds Skoutli harmless in connection with any loss or damage in connection with the use of the Facilitator and a third–party operator of the Platform and the Services.

You acknowledge and agree that you alone are responsible for any and all Listings and Member Content you post.

You represent and warrant that any Listing you post and the Booking of, and/or a Member’s use of a listing (a) will not breach any agreements you have entered into with any third parties, such as property Host’s or other third party agreements, and (b) will (i) be in compliance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations that may apply to any listing included in a Listing you post, and (ii) not conflict with the rights of third parties. Please note that Skoutli assumes no responsibility for a Host’s compliance with any agreements with or duties to third parties, applicable laws, rules and regulations. Skoutli reserves the right, at any time and without prior notice, to remove or disable access to any Listing for any reason, including Listings that Skoutli, in its sole discretion, considers to be objectionable for any reason, in violation of these Terms, or otherwise harmful to the Platform.

If an Operator requests a Booking of your listing and uses your listing, any agreement you enter into with such Operator is between you and the Operator and Skoutli is not a party to it. You must specify any additional terms on your Listing.

You acknowledge and agree that, as a Host, you are responsible for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of any individuals who use or are otherwise present at your request or invitation, excluding the Operator or Facilitator (and the individuals the Operator or Facilitator invites to the listing, if applicable.)

While it is not Skoutli’ intent to monitor your online communications to or within the Platform, Skoutli reserves the right to remove any content that we become aware of and determine to be harmful, illegal or in breach of copyright laws or privacy laws.

Skoutli accepts no liability for Member Content.

The Member is responsible for the accuracy, quality and legality of Member Content and the Member’s acquisition of it, and the users that create, access and/or use Member Content.

By registering as a Member, when completing a listing, contributing, commenting, uploading images or files, inputting data, linking to data or files on third-party sites, or engaging in any other form of communication through the Platform you are creating Member Content and you are granting Skoutli a transferable, sub-licensable, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, unrestricted, worldwide license to:

use, copy, sublicense, adapt, transmit, publicly perform or display any such Member Content; and

sublicense to third parties the unrestricted right to exercise any of the foregoing rights granted with respect to the Member Content.

This licence shall include the right to exploit any proprietary rights in the Member Content, including but not limited to rights under publicity, copyright, trademark or patent laws under any relevant jurisdiction.

Skoutli reserves the right to filter, modify, publish and permanently remove Member Content on the Site, Application or in connection with the Services in its sole and unfettered discretion

To the extent permitted by law, Skoutli accepts no liability for the accuracy of any information made available using the Platform. Any reliance on the information available through the Platform is at the Member’s own risk.

On registering to access or use the Site or Application, you will be required to supply payment information to Skoutli (or an authorised billing representative of Skoutli). This payment information may include, for example, credit/debit card or bank account details (“Payment Details”). All Payment Details supplied to Skoutli will be retained and used by Skoutli in accordance with these Terms and the Skoutli Privacy Policy available on the Site and Application. You must ensure that the Payment Details you supply are correct and complete. Failure to pay any fee as and when due to Skoutli under these Terms may result in your Skoutli Account being suspended or terminated. You agree to pay Skoutli upon demand all of Skoutli’ fees, costs and expenses it occurs in connection with any failed payment, including the recovery thereof from you.

The Host, not Skoutli, is solely responsible for honoring any confirmed Bookings and making available any listing booked through the Platform. If you, as an Operator or Facilitator, choose to enter into a transaction with a Host for the Booking of a listing, you agree and understand that you will be required to enter into an agreement with the Host and you agree to accept any terms, conditions, rules and restrictions associated with such listing imposed by the Host. You acknowledge and agree that you, and not Skoutli, will be responsible for performing the obligations of any such agreements, that Skoutli is not a party to such agreements, and that, with the exception of Skoutli’ payment obligations pursuant to these Terms, Skoutli (inclusive of all subsidiaries and related entities) disclaims all liability arising from or related to any such agreements.

If you are a Host and a Booking is requested for your listing via the Platform, you will be required to either confirm or reject the Booking request within the Booking Request Period, otherwise the Booking request will automatically expire. When a Booking is requested via the Platform, we will share with you:

the name, details and business activities of the Operator or Facilitator who has requested the Booking.

A Booking Fee is payable by the Operator or Facilitator to Skoutli in full immediately upon confirmation of a Booking by a Host. The Booking Fee is comprised of the listing Fee and the Service Fee. 

Operators and/or Facilitators agree to pay Skoutli the Booking Fee as outlined on the Platform. Operators and/or Facilitators authorise Skoutli (and/or any third party payment processor of Skoutli from time to time) to charge and deduct the Booking Fee from you using the Payment Details. Skoutli will hold the Booking Fee in escrow for 14 days whereupon, save and except in the event of a Member Dispute, the listing Fee will be remitted by Skoutli to the Host (that is, the Booking Fee less the Service Fee and any other applicable fees and taxes) using the Host’s Payment Details.

For Hosts situate in Australia, Skoutli will collect GST on the Booking Fee on behalf of the Host and charge GST on the Service Fee payable by the Host. Hosts represent and warrant that they are or will be (prior to accepting a Booking) registered for GST. Skoutli will provide Hosts situate in Australia with a valid tax invoice for Services Fees at the end of each calendar month.

Notwithstanding that Member bookings ‘off Platform’ are a breach of these Terms, if any Member engages with, recruits or otherwise solicits another Member to complete a Booking independent of the Platform, the Host will remain liable to pay Skoutli the Service Fee for any use of a listing (by another Member) advertised on the Platform in the preceding 18 months, as if that listing was the subject of a Booking(s) using the Platform.

All amounts owed to Skoutli under or in connection with these Terms constitute debts due and payable by you to Skoutli until paid in full. You must pay all amounts due to Skoutli without set-off, deductions counter-claims or conditions; and in available cleared funds. If an amount due under these Terms is paid after the due date you must pay Skoutli, in addition to the overdue amount interest at the rate of 10% per annum calculated based on a 365 day year from the date of the default until the date the amount (together with all accrued interest) is paid in full; and all costs and expenses incurred by Skoutli in collecting the overdue amount.

All fees and charges shown on the Site and Application and identified in these Terms are in Australian Dollars (AUD) and are inclusive of GST (unless otherwise indicated).

If, as an Operator or Facilitator, you wish to cancel a confirmed Booking made via the Platform, either prior to or after arriving at the listing, the cancellation policy of the Host contained in the applicable Listing will apply to such cancellation. Our ability to refund the listing Fees will depend upon the terms of the cancellation policy. Service Fees are non-refundable for an Operator’s or Facilitator’s cancellation of a confirmed Booking. Details regarding refunds and cancellation policies are available upon request. 

Hosts may not cancel a Booking later than 14 days prior to the Booking. If a Host cancels a confirmed Booking made via the Platform:

Skoutli will refund the Booking Fees for such Booking to the applicable Operator or Facilitator pursuant to these Terms;

the Operator or Facilitator will receive a communication from Skoutli to the effect of the cancellation; and

the Host will be charged the Service Fee applicable to the Booking using the Host’s Payment Details.

If, as a Host, you cancel a confirmed Booking, you agree that Skoutli may apply penalties or consequences to you or your Listing, including:

publishing an automated review on your Listing indicating that a Booking was cancelled;

keeping the calendar for your Listing unavailable or blocked for the dates of the cancelled Booking; or

immediately terminating your Account if more than one (1) cancellation occurs in any three (3) month period.

In certain circumstances, Skoutli may decide, in its sole discretion, that it is necessary or desirable to cancel a confirmed Booking made via the Platform. Skoutli may also determine, in its sole discretion, to refund to the Operator or Facilitator part or all of the amounts charged to the Operator or Facilitator, in which case the listing Fee is not remittable to the Host.

Skoutli will initiate any refunds due to you pursuant to these Terms within 30 days, using your Payment Details. 

As an Operator or Facilitator, you are responsible for leaving the listing (including any personal or other property located at the listing location) in the condition it was in when you arrived. You acknowledge and agree that, as an Operator or Facilitator, you are responsible for your own acts and omissions and are also responsible for the acts and omissions of any individuals whom you invite to, or otherwise provide access to, the listing. In the event that a Host claims otherwise and provides evidence of damage (“Damage Claim”), including but not limited to photographs, you agree to pay the cost of replacing the damaged items with equivalent items.

Operators are required to complete the check-in and out form for every day occupying the listing.

Each Listing will require a $500 Security Deposit (“Security Deposits”) for the applicable listing. The security deposit will be collected from the renter the week prior to the booking. If the security deposit is not paid, the booking will be cancelled and the booking fee will NOT be refunded. Skoutli will use commercially reasonable efforts to address Hosts’ requests and claims related to Security Deposits, but Skoutli is not responsible for administering or accepting any Damage Claims by Hosts related to Security Deposits, and disclaims any and all liability in this regard.

These Terms operate for term commencing on the later of the first day of the month or the date upon which you access the Platform and ending on the last day of the month (“Term”). The Term shall automatically renew on a monthly basis unless these Terms are varied or terminated by Skoutli prior to the commencement of the following month.

Skoutli may suspend or terminate these Terms in its sole discretion at any time. Without qualifying the foregoing, Skoutli may immediately suspend, terminate or limit your access to and use of the Platform and (where relevant) your Account and any Collective Content if Skoutli suspects that you have committed a fraudulent act and/or you have, or you intend to, breach these Terms.

Any termination by Skoutli in circumstances where you are either in material default of your obligations under these Terms, or are in default of a non-material obligation which you fail to remedy within five days of being notified of the default by Skoutli, will be of immediate effect.

In the event an agreement arising under or in connection with these Terms is terminated, Skoutli may take such steps as it deems necessary to ensure you cease using or accessing, or having any ability to use or access, the Platform and/ or any Collective Content, including but not limited to revoking your licence and blocking your access.

Skoutli does not warrant or represent the suitability of the Platform or the Collective Content for any purpose. To the extent permitted by law, neither party is liable to the other for any direct loss and damages, or for fines, penalties, taxes and any exemplary, aggravated of punitive damages, liquidated damages or indirect and consequential loss and damages arising in any way (including without limitation for loss of revenue, loss of profits, failure to realise expected profits or savings and any other commercial or economic loss of any kind) legal costs and expenses or loss or corruption of data, in contract, tort, under any statute or otherwise (including negligence) arising from or connected to the Platform, the Collective Content, the Listings and the Bookings.

Any liability to you for loss or damage of any kind arising out of these Terms, the Platform, the Collective Content, the Listings, the Bookings or in connection with the relationship established by any of them is reduced to the extent (if any) that you cause or contribute to the loss or damage. This reduction applies whether our liability is in contract, tort (including negligence), under any statute or otherwise.

In any event, Skoutli’ liability under any warranty and whether in negligence or not, shall not exceed the price of any Service Fees paid to Skoutli.

YOU ASSUME ALL RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR USE OF THE PLATFORM, THE COLLECTIVE CONTENT, THE LISTINGS, THE BOOKINGS AND INDEMNIFY AND HOLD HARMLESS Skoutli, AND ANY OF ITS ASSIGNS, AGENTS OR EMPLOYEES AGAINST ANY CLAIMS, LAWSUITS, DAMAGES, AND EXPENSES (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO SOLICITOR’S FEES ON AN INDEMNITY BASIS).

MEMBER DISPUTES

In the event of a Member Dispute between Members up to the value of $3,000 (AUD) Skoutli may, in its absolute discretion, allow the parties to make submissions and provide evidence to Skoutli in respect of the Member Dispute. At its election, Skoutli may analyse the Member evidence and submissions and make a determination on the information before it within a period not exceeding 30 days. The Members agree that Skoutli’ decision is final and binding and any monies held by Skoutli may be dispersed in accordance with the adjudicated dispute.

In the event of a Member Dispute between Members exceeding the value of $3,001 (AUD) Skoutli may hold all such Booking Fees (less Service Fees payable to Skoutli) the subject of the Member Dispute until such time as the Members jointly notify Skoutli in writing of the resolution of the Member Dispute or Skoutli is provided with a sealed judgement of a Court of competent jurisdiction in Australia in respect of determination of the Member Dispute.

Skoutli will transfer all funds the subject of an ongoing Member Dispute (less Service Fees payable to Skoutli) to a separate bank account at six(6) monthly intervals and will deal with any unclaimed monies in accordance with the laws of Australia.

Skoutli reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to amend these Terms and/or the Platform at any time. Any such amendments will be effective as soon and from the commencement of the following calendar month. By continuing to access or use the Platform after these Terms have been modified, you agree to be bound by the amendments to these Terms.

If the whole or any part of a provision of these Terms is void, unenforceable or illegal in a jurisdiction it is severed for that jurisdiction. The remainder of these Terms has full force and effect and the validity or enforceability of that provision in any other jurisdiction is not affected. This clause has no effect if the severance alters the basic nature of these Terms or is contrary to public policy.

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Australia. Each party submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of that place.
