Terms of Service

Last updated: 6 June 2026

1. The agreement

These Terms govern your use of Construct-it (“the Service”), provided by Adam (Construct-it Management Pty Ltd) and Ainsley (“we”, “us”). By signing up, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

2. Free trial + paid plans

The Service offers a 14-day free trial with no credit card required. To continue after the trial ends, add a card before it expires and you will be charged according to your selected plan (Start / Pro / Premium). If no card is added, your account simply pauses. You may cancel anytime from Control Panel → Billing.

Refunds: monthly plans are non-refundable for partial months. Annual plans are refundable on a pro-rata basis within 30 days of payment.

3. Acceptable use

You agree NOT to:

  • Use the Service for unlawful activity
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer, scrape, or overwhelm the Service
  • Resell access without our written consent
  • Upload data you do not have the right to process

4. Your data, your responsibility

You own your data. We act as a data processor on your behalf. You are responsible for ensuring the accuracy of project, claim, variation and retention information you enter. We provide the math; you sign off the numbers.

5. Posting to Xero

When you connect Xero, you authorise Construct-it to read invoices, contacts and bank transactions, and (with your explicit per-action confirmation) to create ACCREC invoices in your Xero organisation. We do not modify or delete existing Xero records. Each post is logged to the audit log.

6. Security of Payment Act compliance

Construct-it generates progress claim documents that include statutory notice text where required. This is general boilerplate, not legal advice. You are responsible for ensuring your claims meet the requirements of the applicable Security of Payment Act (e.g. BIF Act QLD, BCISP NSW, SoP Act VIC). Consult a construction lawyer for material claims.

7. Service availability

We aim for 99.5% monthly uptime. We do not guarantee uninterrupted service and will not be liable for outages caused by third-party providers (Vercel, Supabase, Xero, Stripe).

8. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by Australian law, our total liability for any claim arising under these Terms is limited to the fees you paid to us in the 12 months preceding the claim. We are not liable for indirect, consequential, or special damages.

9. Termination

You may cancel any time. We may suspend or terminate your account if you breach these Terms or fail to pay. On termination, your data is preserved for 60 days then soft-deleted (audit logs and accounting records retained 7 years as required by AU tax law).

10. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia. Any dispute shall be resolved in the courts of Queensland.
