Terms of Service

Provider Compliance – Terms of Service

These Terms of Service set out the terms and conditions upon which Provider Compliance (“we”, “us”, “our”) provides compliance, auditing, training, registration support, consulting, and related services to our clients (“you”, “your”).

 

By engaging our services or accessing our website, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use our services or website.

1. Business Entity

Provider Compliance operates under a registered Australian business. All services are delivered in accordance with Australian laws, including the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth), Privacy Act 1988 (Cth), and any sector-specific laws including the NDIS Act 2013 and Aged Care Act 1997, where applicable.

2. Nature of Services

We provide a range of consulting and support services including but not limited to:

  • NDIS and aged care provider registration assistance
  • Internal audits and quality management reviews
  • Policy and procedure development
  • Staff training and compliance education
  • ISO 9001:2015 preparation and advisory
  • Ongoing compliance support and business consulting

 

We do not provide legal or financial advice. While we may work in collaboration with legal, accounting, or auditing professionals, you must seek independent legal or financial advice where required.

3. Client Responsibilities

You agree to:

  • Provide timely, accurate, and complete information required for us to deliver services
  • Ensure that any requested documents, decisions, or approvals are supplied by the specified deadline
  • Notify us in writing of any changes to your business structure, registration goals, or audit timelines that may impact our scope of work
  • Cooperate with us in good faith during any consultation, review, or documentation process

 

Failure to provide adequate information may delay services or impact the quality of outputs.

4. Service Deliverables and Timeframes

The scope of services and deliverables will be detailed in your proposal or service agreement. Timeframes may vary based on your responsiveness, complexity of services, and third-party dependencies such as auditors or regulators.

 

All deliverables will be provided in digital format unless otherwise agreed. We do not guarantee specific outcomes (such as audit success or registration approval), however we aim to provide work that is high quality, comprehensive, and tailored to the relevant compliance standards.

5. Payment Terms

Unless otherwise agreed in writing:

  • All invoices are payable within 7 days from the invoice date
  • Payments must be made in Australian dollars via approved payment methods
  • We reserve the right to suspend or withhold services if payment is overdue
  • Deposits or upfront payments may be required for certain projects

 

Where services fall under Australian Consumer Law, statutory consumer guarantees apply. Refunds may be issued where required by law, however change-of-mind refunds are not available for customised services or digital products once delivered.

6. Intellectual Property

All documentation, policies, training content, templates, frameworks, and other materials provided to you remain the intellectual property of Provider Compliance unless otherwise transferred in writing.

 

You are granted a non-exclusive, non-transferable licence to use the materials for your own business purposes. You must not reproduce, resell, distribute, or publicly display the materials without our written permission.

 

Unauthorised use or sharing of our intellectual property may result in legal action.

7. Confidentiality and Privacy

We respect your confidentiality. All information shared with us in the course of service delivery is treated as confidential unless:

  • You provide written consent for it to be disclosed
  • We are required to disclose the information by law or regulation
  • Disclosure is necessary to prevent harm or comply with professional obligations

 

We comply with the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and our full Privacy Policy can be found on our website. We use secure systems to store and transmit information, and we do not share your data with third parties except as required to deliver our services or comply with legal requirements.

8. Website Use

Your use of our website www.providercompliance.com.au is subject to these Terms as well as any additional terms published on the site. You agree not to:

  • Use the site for any unlawful, abusive, or fraudulent activity
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to the site’s backend or systems
  • Copy, download, or reproduce content without our permission

 

The site may include links to external sites. We are not responsible for the content or policies of third-party sites.

9. Limitation of Liability

To the extent permitted by law, Provider Compliance is not liable for:

  • Any loss or damage arising from your use of or reliance on our services or materials
  • Delays, interruptions, or errors resulting from circumstances beyond our control
  • Consequential, incidental, indirect, or special damages including loss of revenue, profits, or business opportunity

 

If we are found to be liable under Australian Consumer Law, our liability is limited to:

  • Re-supply of the services
  • Payment for the cost of having the services supplied again

 

This clause does not limit any rights you may have under the Australian Consumer Law.

10. Force Majeure

We are not liable for failure to perform obligations under this agreement where such failure is due to events beyond our reasonable control. These include but are not limited to natural disasters, government orders, cyberattacks, or failures of third-party infrastructure.

11. Termination of Services

Either party may terminate the engagement by providing written notice. If you terminate the agreement after work has commenced, you will be invoiced for the portion of work completed up to the date of termination.

 

We reserve the right to terminate services immediately in the event of:

  • Breach of these Terms
  • Failure to pay invoices
  • Misuse of our materials or services
  • Behaviour that is abusive or unethical

 

All intellectual property provided up to the date of termination remains the property of Provider Compliance.

12. Dispute Resolution

In the event of a dispute, both parties agree to attempt resolution through good faith negotiation. If a resolution cannot be reached, the matter may be referred to mediation or another form of alternative dispute resolution in accordance with Australian law.

 

Disputes will be governed by the laws of New South Wales, and both parties agree to submit to the jurisdiction of the courts of that State.

13. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time to reflect changes in law, services, or business practices. The most current version will always be available on our website. Continued use of our services after changes are published will be taken as your acceptance of the revised Terms.
