Third party terms

These Schedules form part of the Terms of Use and apply in addition to them. Each Schedule states the subscriptions it applies to.

More than one Schedule is published on this page. Only the Schedule that matches a subscription applies to that subscription:

1. Schedule 1 - Standards Australia curated set subscription terms. Applies to a Subscription that provides access to a Curated Set other than under a Named User Subscription. Schedule 1 prevails for those subscriptions.
2. Schedule 2 - Standards Australia Named User Subscription terms. Applies to a Subscription that provides access to Standards Australia Licensed Material under a Named User Subscription. Schedule 2 prevails for those subscriptions.

Where a Subscription is a Named User Subscription, Schedule 2 applies to that Subscription and Schedule 1 does not.

Schedule 1 - Standards Australia curated set subscription terms

1. Application

1.1 This Schedule applies if the User is provided with access to any Curated Set as part of their access to the Platform, other than under a Named User Subscription. If the User is provided with access under a Named User Subscription, Schedule 2 applies instead of this Schedule.

2. Definitions

2.1 In this Schedule, the following terms have the following meanings:

3. Additional Terms

3.1 The Customer acknowledges that it meets the Eligibility Requirement (if any).

3.2 The Customer is granted a non-exclusive, non-transferrable, non-sublicensable, limited licence, for the relevant Permitted Subscription Term, to permit the relevant permitted number of Authorised Users specified in the subscription agreement, to access the item, with the right to add notes to the item but without the right to print, save or copy the whole or any part of the item.

The Customer must not otherwise change Authorised Users or permit any sharing of an Authorised User's access rights. The Customer may only register the same Authorised User once during the subscription period. The Customer may not substitute a user with a person who was a previous Authorised User during the same subscription period.

3.11 The Distributor holds the benefit of these terms on trust for Standards Australia and may enforce these terms on Standards Australia's behalf and for Standards Australia's benefit.

Schedule 2 - Standards Australia Named User Subscription terms

1. Application

3.6 The Customer shall not loan, sell, rent, lease, reproduce, or otherwise distribute any of the Licensed Material obtained through the Subscription, in any format, by electronic mail or other means, to any individual or organisation other than an Authorised User at an Authorised Site, without the prior written permission of Standards Australia.

3.7 The Customer must ensure that the logins for each Authorised User are unique logins. Generic logins are not allowed. Each Authorised User must be a natural person, and an employee of the Customer. A contractor, consultant or affiliate of the Customer cannot be a permitted Authorised User of the Customer's Subscription.

3.8 For the purposes of clause 3.7, an employee includes a full-time, part-time, casual or fixed term employee, and Authorised Users may include employees of the Customer's Related Bodies Corporate.

3.9 If an Authorised User changes their role or ceases employment with the Customer, then the Customer may substitute another natural person as the relevant Authorised User. The Customer must not otherwise change Authorised Users or permit any sharing of an Authorised User's access rights. The Customer may only register the same Authorised User once during a Subscription Term. The Customer may not substitute an Authorised User with a person who was a previous Authorised User during the same Subscription Term without purchasing an additional user licence.

3.13 The Distributor holds the benefit of these terms on trust for Standards Australia and may enforce these terms on Standards Australia's behalf and for Standards Australia's benefit.

4. How access works

Summary only. This section describes how access to Licensed Material is delivered under a Named User Subscription. It is not part of the terms and creates no rights. Clause 3 prevails to the extent of any inconsistency.

• How you read an item. An Authorised User can open an item in the web viewer, in the mobile app, or as a PDF downloaded to a local device. What you can do with it depends on which of those you are using.
• Printing. Printing is done from the PDF, and is unlimited. Every printed page carries a watermark showing the organisation name, the date, and a notation that reproduction, distribution and storage or use on a network is prohibited. The web viewer does not print.
• Downloads. The PDF can be downloaded to a local device. Downloaded files are locked to the device they were saved on. A copied file will not open elsewhere, and files must not be stored on shared network drives.
• Caching. A cached version can be stored and accessed in a browser or app for up to 30 days.
• Copying and forwarding. Copy, cut and paste, and forwarding are disabled.
• Concurrent use. Each Authorised User can open an item on one device at a time.
• Removing a user. When an Authorised User is removed, access for that user is blocked within 24 hours.
• Expiry. On expiry of the Subscription, all saved and printed copies of Licensed Material must be deleted or destroyed.
