This Terms of Service (the “Terms”) is a binding legal agreement between Quirk Consulting (“Quirk Consulting”, “we”, “our”, and “us”), and the customer (“you” and “your”), the user of the applicable Marketplace Platform (e.g., Atlassian Marketplace, monday.com Marketplace), being a person, entity, or subscriber to our Software-as-a-Service (“SaaS”) Products (as defined below), hereinafter referred to together as the “Parties” and individually.
These Terms govern your use of our cloud-based plug-in applications and SaaS products, offered to you through the Marketplace Platform which are both offered to you:
Subscription-Based SaaS Products and Free SaaS Products shall be hereinafter collectively referred to as the “SaaS Product(s).”
These Terms apply whether you purchase our SaaS Products directly from Quirk Consulting, through the Marketplace Platform, through an authorised reseller or otherwise. If you purchase through a reseller, your license rights shall be stated in the order provided to you by the reseller. Resellers are not authorised to make any promises, commitments or impose additional terms and conditions on our behalf, and we are not bound by any obligations to you other than what is included in these Terms.
These Terms apply to all our SaaS Products licensed to you. Before installing, and/or using the SaaS Products, please carefully read these Terms. By installing and/or using the SaaS Products you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms including without limitation the terms of other documents and/or policies that are incorporated herein by reference. If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of another person or company or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have full authority to bind that person, company or legal entity under these Terms.
If you do not agree to these Terms, or you do not have the necessary authority you are not authorised to install and/or use the SaaS Products for any purpose whatsoever. You are to promptly unsubscribe from the SaaS Products.
Quirk Consulting is a vendor on the Marketplace Platform, as such these Terms are governed by the Marketplace Terms of Use and related platform’s terms and conditions (collectively “Platform Terms”). If you do not agree with the Platform Terms, you shall consequently not be authorised to use the applicable Marketplace product and our SaaS Products.

These Terms entitle you to install and use one copy of the SaaS Products. These Terms do not permit the installation or use of multiple copies of the SaaS Products on a system that allows shared use of applications. Multiple copy use or installation is only allowed if you obtain the appropriate license for each copy of the SaaS Products. Furthermore, the SaaS Products may only be installed and used on the hardware systems you own, lease or which are controlled by you, or your third party service provider, providing you remain responsible for the third party’s compliance with the terms and conditions of these Terms.
Subject to these Terms, you are granted a worldwide, limited, non- transferable, non-exclusive, non-sublicenseable, as-is right to install and use the SaaS Products for the term and applicable licensing fee that is associated with the particular SaaS Products you choose to purchase.

You further warrant that the transfer of your data to us does not violate any laws, third party rights, including any Intellectual Property Rights, rights of privacy, or rights of publicity, and any use, collection and disclosure of your data as authorised under these Terms is not inconsistent with the terms of any applicable privacy policies.

You agree that your use of the SaaS Products is at your own risk. To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, in no event shall Quirk Consulting be liable to you for, or to those claiming through you for, any indirect, consequential, incidental or special damage or loss of any kind including, but not limited to, loss of profits, loss of contracts, business interruptions, cost of substitute goods or services, loss of or corruption of data however caused and whether arising under contract or tort (including without limitation negligence). The limitations in this clause shall apply notwithstanding the failure of the essential purpose of any remedy.
In no event shall our aggregate liability to you arising out of or in connection with these Terms, from all causes of action and theories of liability (including without limitation negligence), exceed the amounts paid for the current subscription period of the Subscription-Based SaaS Products and for no more than twelve (12) months. Quirk Consulting, however, shall not be liable to you for the Free SaaS Products.
We do not limit or exclude our liability for (i) death or personal injury caused by negligence, (ii) fraudulent misrepresentation, or (iii) any other liability to the extent that such liability cannot be excluded or limited by applicable law.

The obligations under this clause will survive termination of these Terms.
These Terms may terminate through (i) the expiration of the Subscription license, or (ii) the expiry of the Evaluation Period, or (iii) the uninstallment of a Free License, or (iv) termination for convenience, or (iii) a termination for cause.
If we terminate these Terms for convenience where you are paying for a Subscription License, your license to the Subscription-Based SaaS Products shall automatically terminate and you shall be required to remove all components of the SaaS Products from your systems and destroy any copies.
Quirk Consulting may terminate these Terms if you materially breach it or any other agreement you have entered into with us. A material breach shall include but not be limited to your failure to timely pay our fees when they have become due and owing to us, when you significantly put our system at risk as a result of not using the designated user interface elements to access data and non- UI access as per the applicable documentation, and where you attempt to access all your data at once from our servers. As such, where it has been found that you have caused a material breach Quirk Consulting shall in their sole discretion temporarily deny you access to the SaaS Product so as to afford us with the opportunity to protect our system and our other customers.
Should we terminate these Terms for cause, we will provide you with ten (10) days’ written notice, after which period the Terms will automatically terminate. Upon termination of these Terms, you shall cease all use of the SaaS Products and you shall reasonably cooperate in: (a) removing, uninstalling or deactivating all copies of the SaaS Products; and (b) satisfying all financial obligations you may have to us.
If you terminate these Terms for convenience or if we terminate these Terms for cause, you shall not be entitled to a refund of any portion of the fees you have paid to us.
For any dispute with Quirk Consulting, you agree to first contact us and attempt to resolve the dispute with us informally. In the unlikely event that Quirk Consulting has not been able to resolve a dispute it has with you after attempting to do so informally, we each agree to resolve any claim, dispute, or controversy (excluding any Quirk Consulting claims for injunctive or other equitable relief) arising out of or in connection with or relating to this Agreement, or the breach or alleged breach thereof (collectively, “Claims”), by binding arbitration by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”) under the Commercial Arbitration Rules and Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes then in effect for the AAA, except as provided herein. The arbitration will be conducted in Melbourne, Victoria, unless you and Quirk Consulting agree otherwise. Each party will be responsible for paying any AAA filing, administrative and arbitrator fees in accordance with AAA rules. The award rendered by the arbitrator shall include costs of arbitration, reasonable attorneys’ fees and reasonable costs for expert and other witnesses, and any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Nothing in this Section shall prevent either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief from the courts as necessary to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of that party’s data security, Intellectual Property Rights, or other proprietary rights. All claims must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding, and, unless we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims. You agree that, by entering into this agreement, you and Quirk Consulting are each waiving the right to a trial by jury or to participate in a class action.
The Parties are independent contractors under these Terms and expressly disclaim any partnership, franchise, joint venture, agency, employer/employee, fiduciary or other special relationship. Neither Party intends these Terms to benefit, or create any right or cause of action in or on behalf of, any person or entity other than the Parties and listed affiliates. These Terms are not intended to create a third-party beneficiary of any kind. You must not represent to any third party that it has any right to bind us in any manner and you will not to make any representations or warranties on behalf of us.
If a court holds that any provision of these Terms is invalid or unenforceable under applicable law, the court will modify the provision to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable or, if it cannot be made valid and enforceable, the court will sever and delete the provision from these Terms. The change will affect neither the validity of the amended provision nor the validity of any other provision of these Terms, which will continue in full force and effect.
A Party’s failure or delay in enforcing any provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of the right to enforce that provision or any other provision of these Terms at any time. A waiver of any provision of these Terms must be in writing, specify the provision to be waived and signed by the Party agreeing to the waiver.
A Force Majeure event means any event beyond a Party’s reasonable control that, by its nature, could not have been foreseen or, if it could have been foreseen, was unavoidable, including strikes, lock-outs or other industrial disputes (whether involving its own workforce or a third party’s), acts of God, war, riot, embargoes, acts of civil or military authorities, acts of terrorism or sabotage, shortage of supply or delay in delivery by our vendors, fire, flood, earthquake, accident, radiation, inability to secure transportation, failure of communications or energy sources, malicious damage, breakdown of plant or machinery, or default of suppliers or sub-contractors. Neither Party is liable for delays or failures to perform any of its obligations under these Terms to the extent caused by a Force Majeure Event.
Any notice given under or in relation to these Terms must be in writing, signed by or on behalf of the Party giving it, and addressed to us at the contact information provided when purchasing the SaaS Products.
You may not sublicense, assign or transfer any rights under these Terms without our prior written consent. Any attempt by you to sublicense, assign or transfer any of your rights, duties or obligations under these Terms, whether directly, or indirectly by merger, acquisition or change of control, will be null and void.
You agree that: (i) the Service shall be deemed solely based in Victoria; and (ii) the Service shall be deemed a passive one that does not give rise to personal jurisdiction over Quirk Consulting, either specific or general, in jurisdictions other than Victoria. This Agreement shall be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of Victoria, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of the federal and state courts located in Melbourne, Victoria for any actions for which we retain the right to seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation or violation of our copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, patents, or other intellectual property or proprietary rights, as set forth in the Arbitration provision below. If you are a consumer, this agreement does not exclude any rights you may have under the national consumer laws of your jurisdiction.
These Terms constitutes the entire understanding between you and Quirk Consulting in relation to the SaaS Products and supersedes all oral or written proposals, and all communications between the Parties relating to its subject- matter.
We reserve the right to amend these Terms at any time. Any amendment will be effective on the posting of an updated version at this page.
Should you have any questions concerning these Terms, please contact Us.
