Customer Agreement
Customer Agreement
1. What do these terms and conditions apply to?
1.1 The Dhigna Platform gives you:
Information and other administrative support tools and services provided by us and customer care in relation to the Linked Services defined below, Dhigna; and Access to services provided by third parties through the Dhigna Platform (referred to in this agreement as the 'Linked Services').
Please note the limitations of the Dhigna Platform and the exclusions and limits of our liability in clause 6.
1.2 These terms and conditions apply to the services we provide to customers who have registered with us but they do not apply to the Linked Services. These are covered by separate terms and conditions which you will need to agree to when you sign up for the Linked Services. In the event of any conflict with the terms for Linked Services, these terms shall govern your use of the Dhigna Platform.
1.3 By registering and each time you use the Dhigna Platform, you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions in your personal capacity. In addition, where you are accessing, using or receiving our services on behalf of an organisation (for example your business or employer), you represent and warrant that you are authorised to accept and agree to these Terms on behalf of that organisation which shall be bound by these Terms, and "you" and "your" shall be construed accordingly.
1.4 In these terms and conditions:
'we' means Dhigna and
'you' means the individual sole trader, partnership or other legal entity (limited company or unincorporated association) that has registered with us.
If you are a partnership, sole trader or other legal entity, each individual who is authorised by you to use the Dhigna Platform must register as a separate user in the registration process. 'You' in these terms and conditions will include those authorised individuals, where relevant, and you are responsible and liable for any access, use or misuse of the Dhigna Platform by those individuals.
2. How you access the Dhigna platform
2.1 When you register your mobile device with Dhigna you (or each authorised user) will choose a security code and provide other security details which must be entered to log on to the Dhigna Platform. You must keep these secret because, as long as the mobile device and associated security code has been used, we will assume that you are the person using the Dhigna Platform. We may carry out additional checks if we think it is necessary.
2.2 You must tell us as soon as possible if your mobile device has been lost or stolen or you think someone else knows your security details or can use Dhigna by impersonating you. Until you tell us:
you will be responsible for any instruction which we receive and act on, even if it was not given by you; and
we will not be responsible for any unauthorised access to confidential information about you on the Dhigna Platform.
2.3 By using the Dhigna Platform, you agree that you will not use any functions of the Dhigna Platform for any Prohibited Activity (as defined in Appendix 1 to this agreement) or any Prohibited Purpose (as defined in Appendix 2 to this agreement).
3. Fees and charges
Use of the Dhigna Platform is subject to our fees and charges which can be found in the fee schedule on the Dhigna website and in the Dhigna app. We will provide you with at least 60 calendar days advanced notice of any changes to our fees and charges in accordance with clause 7 of this agreement.
4. Security
4.1 We may use software and other technology to detect viruses or malicious software on the computer or device you use to access the Dhigna Platform. If you are using a mobile device, we may also use software and other technology to determine whether your device has been altered through 'jailbreaking' or 'rooting'. If we determine that your device has been altered through 'jailbreaking' or 'rooting', or if we detect viruses or malicious software, we may suspend, restrict or block access to the Dhigna Platform from that device.
5. When we can restrict access to the Dhigna platform
5.1 We may suspend, restrict or stop your use of the Dhigna Platform at any time without advance warning if we reasonably think this is necessary because, for example:
we discover you have knowingly given us false information;
the security of the Dhigna Platform is at risk;
we suspect unauthorised or fraudulent use of the Dhigna Platform;
a device is used that we do not recognise or is used in an unusual way;
you use Dhigna Platform or our services and tools in a way or for a purpose not envisaged by us;
we have to comply with any legal or regulatory requirement;
any event under clause 6.3 below;
you have not accessed the Dhigna Platform for six months or more;
you have breached this agreement, including but not limited to using the Dhigna Platform for any Prohibited Activity or Prohibited Purpose or failing to make any payment due; or
you fail to satisfy the compliance criteria of any of our third party providers.
5.2 If we suspend, restrict or stop your use of the Dhigna Platform, you will not be able to use the Linked Services until access to the Dhigna Platform is restored.
5.3 Where possible we will contact you before suspending, restricting or blocking your access to tell you that we are doing so and why. We may do this by displaying a message the next time you try to log on or perform an action on the Dhigna Platform. However, we may not always be able to contact you, for example because of legal or regulatory restrictions.
6. Our limited liability and limited service functionality
6.1 Nothing in this agreement shall exclude or limit our liability for death or personal injury resulting from our negligence or the negligence of our employees, agents or subcontractors and for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation and for any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.
6.2 To the extent permitted by law, all conditions or warranties implied by law, statute or otherwise are expressly excluded.
6.3 You can usually use the Dhigna Platform at all times but we won't be liable if you suffer any loss or damage if it is unavailable or does not function properly because of:
scheduled and emergency repairs, updates, or maintenance;
the failure of data processing systems; or
events, circumstances or causes beyond our reasonable control.
6.4 The Dhigna Platform and our administrative support tools and services including our accounting, tax-related or other tools (collectively, "tools") provide functionality that in our opinion might assist some of our customers. However, please note that:
Although we will use reasonable endeavors to provide the Dhigna Platform and the functionality of our tools intended by us, we cannot give any guarantees that Dhigna Platform or our tools:
are fit for any particular purpose or that they may help you comply with any legal requirement;
are always available or that they operate without error, interruption or delay;
will ensure that your information is uncorrupted or that records will be kept for any time;
will always produce accurate calculations, forecasts or information;
provide any advice that you could rely on. Any prompts, suggestions or recommended course of action are just general automated reminders which we thought might be helpful, but they do not constitute advice as they do not consider the specific circumstances of your case or legal obligations.
You must not rely in any way on the Dhigna Platform or our tools or any suggestions or information provided and you remain solely responsible (and we are in no way responsible) for, among other things, keeping your own records, ensuring the accuracy and completeness of information, verifying information, seeking independent advice, managing your relationship with any third party introduced by us, complying with your legal and tax obligations, meeting your liabilities, ensuring that any notices, returns, reports, accounts, computations, statements, assessments and registrations and any other information ("Returns") required to be made or submitted to any tax authority for the purposes of tax are correct and complete, filing any Returns by the due date, making payment of tax on time and making decisions about your financial, tax and other position.
Subject to clause 6.1, we will not be liable to you, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, for any:
loss of profits, sales, business, or revenue;
business interruption;
penalties, fines, surcharge, interest or other similar charges or expenses incurred by you;
wasted time;
loss of anticipated savings;
loss of business opportunity, goodwill or reputation; or
any indirect or consequential loss or damage, in each case whether or not such loss or damage was foreseeable.
6.5 We will not be liable if you cannot use any Linked Services at any time or if any third party breaks their agreement with you.
6.6 We will do all that we reasonably can to prevent unauthorised access to the Dhigna Platform and we will accept liability for any loss or damage resulting directly from our failure to prevent any unauthorised access to the Dhigna Platform in breach of our obligation but excluding any loss or damage set out in 6.4(c), so long as you can show that you kept your device safe, your mobile device was not subject to jailbreaking or 'rooting', where applicable, and you did not disclose your security details or fail to keep them secret.
6.7 We will use our reasonable endeavors to resolve any errors or issues if you let us know. However, notwithstanding any term of this agreement but without prejudice to clause 6.1, our total liability to you in connection with this agreement whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise shall not exceed the total fees received from you in the 12 months immediately preceding the calendar month in which the claim arose.

7.2 We can also change any of these terms and conditions, including introducing or changing charges, provided we give you at least 60 calendar days notice in advance.
