Cyber Experts offer customised packages of features and settings within the Family Zone. These packages are tailored for the specific needs of customer groups. These services are called “Cyber Expert Services” and are governed by this agreement.
Cyber Experts may offer other services outside of the Family Zone and may incorporate the Family Zone Services into broader services aimed at making families safe. Services outside of the Family Zone are not Cyber Expert Services and are not governed by this agreement.
Cyber Experts are independent of the Family Zone. Cyber Expert Services are the responsibility of Cyber Experts and are provided subject to this agreement between you and them.
THESE “Cyber Expert TERMS” ARE AN AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR Cyber Expert REGARDING YOUR USE OF, RIGHTS TO AND OBLIGATIONS WITH RESPECT TO THEIR Cyber Expert SERVICES.
THESE TERMS APPLY TO ANY UPDATES, SUPPLEMENTS OR MODIFICATIONS TO THEIR Cyber Expert SERVICES, UNLESS OTHER TERMS ACCOMPANY THOSE ITEMS. IF SO, THOSE TERMS APPLY. READ THESE TERMS CAREFULLY BEFORE USING THE FAMILY ZONE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES. THIS IS A LEGAL AND ENFORCEABLE CONTRACT BETWEEN YOU AND YOUR CHOSEN Cyber Expert.
BY SELECTING OR CHANGING A Cyber Expert WITHIN THE FAMILY ZONE SERVICES YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT YOU HAVE BEEN PRESENTED WITH, YOU UNDERSTAND AND ARE BOUND BY THESE TERMS.
IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ANY OF THESE TERMS DO NOT USE A Cyber Expert WITHIN THE FAMILY ZONE.
YOU MAY OBTAIN NON FAMILY ZONE RELATED SERVICES FROM YOUR Cyber Expert. SUCH SERVICES ARE NOT GOVERNED BY THESE TERMS.
Unless defined herein, as the context requires, all terms have the same meaning as setout in the Family Zone’s Customer Terms.
The Family Zone permits you to choose a Cyber Expert (or not) when you create a new Family Zone account.
You may change your Cyber Expert at anytime. Doing so will not automatically change Family Zone Control settings already chosen for your End-Users.
To reflect your new Cyber Experts settings in your End-User Family Zone Control settings you must select a new profile for each End-User. Once changed your new Family Zone Control settings will apply.
If you made modifications to the recommended settings by your former Cyber Expert then be advised that these are NOT transferred to your new settings. You must review these and modify them to suit your needs.
Choosing a new Cyber Expert may require a new Plan to be entered into. You will not automatically get a credit for any unexpired portion of a subscription paid for your previous Cyber Expert. Please contact your previous Cyber Expert to query this.
You may cease to use a Cyber Expert at anytime. You do so by choosing the Do-It-Yourself option within the Family Zone portal.
Doing so has the same effect as changing to a new Cyber Expert. You will need to manually change your End-User’s profiles and check all settings.
Your Cyber Experts may at anytime with at least 30 days notice terminate their services to you. In this event, you must select a new Cyber Expert within that time period. If you do not select a Cyber Expert then:
Family Zone we will attempt to contact and work with you to manage the transition.
In the course of providing their services to you your Cyber Expert will need to access personally identifiable information (PII) collected by The Family Zone or them (such as usage, settings and contacts) and will need from time to time to provide you with electronic communications such as email or SMS updates.
Your Cyber Expert will treat your information and to contact you in accordance with the Family Zone Privacy Policy.
You permit your personal information to be made available to your Cyber Experts and for your Cyber Experts to contact you in accordance with the Privacy Policy.
Your Cyber Expert requires you to subscribe to a Plan. Your Plan may be month-to-month or may have a minimum term such as 12 months. It will be billed, collected, must be paid and may be cancelled under the same terms of your applicable Family Zone Plan.
Applicable fees and charges for your Cyber Expert Services are subject to change. If they are changed, reasonable notice will be provided to you and if you are inside a minimum contract term you will be provided with a reasonable time period to cancel your services without penalty. Typically this will be at least 14 days.
Clerical or computation errors and misprints in any document that we or a Reseller provide to you in connection with Cyber Expert Services including any Plan terms, catalogues, price lists, delivery dockets, invoices, statements or credit notes, may be corrected by the reissue of the document or otherwise by giving you notice of the error or misprint with reference to the original document.
You are not entitled to a reduction or variation in a price by reason of any such error or misprint.
Cyber Expert plan fees and charges may be subject to revenue sharing arrangements and the payment of commissions to partners, agents, employees, contractors and others.
Cyber Expert Services are provided on the same terms as the Family Zone Services. These terms are described in Section 3 of the Family Zone Customer Terms which deals with:
