Terms and Conditions - for Subscribers and Casual Users
Please read the following terms and conditions carefully. These terms and conditions apply to all the property services provided on this website
Terms of Agreement
This Agreement is made between you as the Customer (you or your) and PropertyIQ NZ Limited (PropertyIQ) when you tick the 'I accept’ box as part of the registration process and it constitutes the terms and conditions in respect of your access to and use of this Web Site (Website). The provisions set out below are the only terms and conditions on which PropertyIQ agree to provide the services offered on this Website. By accessing the Website you agree to be bound by all these terms and conditions.
Modification of Terms
This agreement, the services and information to be provided may be changed by PropertyIQ at any time via notice on the Website.
Charges
You agree to pay for the reports and documentation ordered from the Website at the rate advised on the Website from time to time.
PropertyIQ will never ask you to email your credit/debit card details direct to PropertyIQ and likewise, you shall not attempt to send PropertyIQ any unsolicited emails containing your credit/debit card details. Your credit/debit card data will only be used to complete payment or refunds of sums due or overpaid to PropertyIQ.
Payment - Credit Card
Payment is in New Zealand dollars and will be converted at the current exchange rate for overseas customers by their credit card company. PropertyIQ may run an authorisation on your credit card for an amount up to the total of your purchases. A credit card authorisation is a method used to determine whether your credit card is valid and whether you have a sufficient credit limit to make a purchase. Although a credit card authorisation results in a temporary reduction in the amount of money you are authorised to charge to your credit card, it does not result in a charge being incurred on your credit card. Upon completion of your session on the Website, your credit card will be charged the total amount of your purchase(s).
Payment - Invoices
Subscribers are invoiced monthly in arrears with a minimum charge of $30.00 plus GST payable for each month subscription. A subscription will continue until PropertyIQ receives written notice that the customer no longer wishes to subscribe as set out in the termination section below. Payment is required in accordance with the terms stated on the invoice. Interest is charged on overdue amounts at the rate of 4% above the base rate charged by Westpac on overdraft accounts. PropertyIQ's Credit checks will be run automatically for any applicant applying for an account. An account will not be established if the credit check is not satisfactory to PropertyIQ in all respects.
