Terms of Service
Last Updated: July 3, 2026
Welcome to AddCal! These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of AddCal. By accessing or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use our Services.
The Services are provided by AddCal Pty Ltd (ACN 699 740 764), a company incorporated in Australia ("AddCal," "we," "us," or "our").
When these Terms use the term "Organizer," we mean event creators using our Services to create events for consumers using our Services to consume information about or attend events ("Consumers"). Organizers, Consumers, and third parties using our Services are all referred to in these Terms collectively as "Users," "you," or "your." "Services" means AddCal.co and all subdomains, our applications, and all services offered through them.
1. The Services
We provide the Services on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We may change, add, or remove features of the Services from time to time, and we may limit or suspend the Services where reasonably necessary (for example, for maintenance, security, or legal reasons), giving you reasonable notice where practicable. We may access your account where reasonably necessary to provide support or maintain the Services.
2. Eligibility and Accounts
You must be at least 16 years old, or the age of legal capacity in your jurisdiction, to use the Services. You are responsible for providing accurate account information and keeping it current, for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials, and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify us immediately at support@addcal.co of any unauthorized use of your account.
3. Subscriptions, Payment, and Billing
Some parts of the Services are offered on a paid subscription basis. By subscribing to a paid plan, you authorize us and our payment processor to charge your payment method for the applicable fees, including recurring fees, on each billing cycle.
- Fees are billed in advance and are payable in the currency stated at checkout.
- You must provide accurate and current billing information.
- You are responsible for all applicable taxes, duties, and charges, except for taxes based on our net income.
- We may change our fees from time to time. Changes to subscription fees take effect at the start of your next billing cycle, and we will give you reasonable prior written notice (for example, by email) so that you can cancel before any increase takes effect.
Payments are processed by our third-party payment provider (Stripe). Your card details are handled by that provider and do not pass through our systems.
4. Auto-Renewal
Paid plans renew automatically at the end of each billing cycle until you cancel. By subscribing, you authorize us to charge your payment method for each renewal at the then-current fees, unless and until you cancel.
5. Upgrades and Downgrades
If you upgrade your plan, the change takes effect immediately and we will bill you for the upgrade, prorated for the remainder of your current billing cycle where applicable. If you downgrade your plan, the change takes effect at the start of your next billing cycle.
6. Cancellation and Termination
You may cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing cycle, and you will retain access to paid features until then.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services if you breach these Terms, fail to pay fees when due, or use the Services in a way that may cause harm to us, other Users, or third parties. We may also discontinue the Services on reasonable prior notice. On termination, your right to use the Services ceases. You are responsible for exporting your data before termination, and we may delete your data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
7. Refunds
Except where required by law (including the Australian Consumer Law, see Section 16), fees are non-refundable and we do not provide refunds or credits for partial billing periods, unused features, or periods during which your account remained open but you did not use the Services.
8. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the Services for any unlawful, harmful, fraudulent, or abusive purpose.
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Services or to other Users' accounts or data.
- Interfere with or disrupt the security, integrity, or performance of the Services.
- Resell, sublicense, or commercially exploit the Services without our prior written permission.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive the source code of the Services, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by law.
- Send unsolicited messages in breach of Section 11.
Where we provide an API, we may set and enforce rate limits, and we may throttle or block access for any account or IP address that we reasonably believe is using the API unlawfully, abusively, or excessively.
9. Your Content
You retain ownership of the content and data you submit to the Services, including event details, images, and registration data ("Your Content"). You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, reproduce, modify (for formatting and display), and transmit Your Content solely as needed to provide and improve the Services.
You are responsible for Your Content and represent that you have all rights and permissions necessary to submit it and to grant the licence above, and that Your Content does not infringe the rights of any third party or violate any law.
10. Intellectual Property
We retain all rights, title, and interest in and to the Services, including all related intellectual property. These Terms do not grant you any rights to our trademarks, logos, or branding except as expressly permitted by us in writing. You retain all rights in Your Content.
11. Unsolicited Messaging Policy
AddCal strictly prohibits the use of unsolicited messages (such as spam) to advertise, promote, or share links to our website, Services, or any user-generated content.
Unsolicited messaging includes, but is not limited to:
- Sending bulk emails or messages to recipients without their prior consent.
- Posting AddCal links in unsolicited comments or messages on social media, forums, or other platforms.
- Using purchased, harvested, or third-party contact lists to distribute AddCal content.
Users are solely responsible for ensuring their promotional activities comply with this policy and all applicable laws, including but not limited to the Spam Act 2003 (Cth), CAN-SPAM, GDPR, and CASL.
Violations of this policy may result in removal of offending content, suspension or termination of your AddCal account, and reporting of the violation to relevant authorities or third-party platforms.
If you believe someone is violating this policy or have received unsolicited messages containing AddCal links, please report it to us at abuse@addcal.co.
12. Email Communications
By signing up for AddCal, you agree to the use of your email address for platform-related communications, including but not limited to account notifications, security alerts, and service updates. These communications are considered an essential part of our Services.
You also consent to receive marketing communications from AddCal, which may include newsletters, promotional offers, and product updates. You may opt out of marketing emails at any time by clicking the unsubscribe link provided in each marketing email or by updating your communication preferences in your account settings. Even if you opt out of marketing communications, you may still receive essential service-related emails.
This email communication policy applies only to Organizers who sign up directly for the AddCal platform. AddCal does not send marketing communications to Consumers who register for events created by Organizers. Consumer communications are managed solely by the Organizers who use our platform.
13. Third-Party Services
The Services may integrate with or link to third-party services (such as video conferencing, automation, and calendar providers). We are not responsible for third-party services, their availability, or how they handle your data. Your use of third-party services is governed by their own terms.
14. Privacy and Data Processing
Our handling of Personal Data is described in our Privacy Policy. Where you use the Services to process the Personal Data of others (such as collecting event registrations), our Data Processing Addendum applies and forms part of these Terms.
15. Disclaimer of Warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, and subject to Section 16, the Services are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure, or that any data will be accurate or free from loss or corruption. You are responsible for maintaining your own backups of important data.
16. Australian Consumer Law
Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any consumer guarantee, right, or remedy conferred on you by the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or any other applicable law that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited.
Where our Services come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law, and where we are entitled to do so, our liability for a failure to comply with such a guarantee is limited (at our option) to: supplying the Services again, or paying the cost of having the Services supplied again. The disclaimers and limitations in Sections 15 and 17 apply only to the extent permitted by the Australian Consumer Law and other applicable law.
17. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, and subject to Section 16:
- We will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or exemplary damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, data, or business, arising out of or in connection with your use of (or inability to use) the Services.
- Our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with these Terms or the Services will not exceed the amount you paid us for the Services in the 12 months immediately preceding the event giving rise to the liability.
18. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless AddCal and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and costs (including reasonable legal fees) arising from or related to your use of the Services, Your Content, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of any law or the rights of any third party.
19. Changes to Terms
We may modify these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by an updated "Last Updated" date and will be effective as soon as it is posted. Your continued use of the Services after changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.
20. General
- Governing law: These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia, and you and AddCal submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales.
- Entire agreement: These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any documents they incorporate, constitute the entire agreement between you and AddCal regarding the Services and supersede any prior agreements.
- Severability: If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
- Assignment: You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
- Force majeure: We will not be liable for any failure or delay in performance caused by events beyond our reasonable control.
- Waiver: Our failure to enforce any provision of these Terms is not a waiver of our right to do so later.
