Introduction
Wallem Group Limited ("Wallem") provides a variety of remotely hosted Internet applications
for use on web sites across the Internet. These Internet applications are referred
to in the rest of these terms and conditions as "Services". A person who maintains
an account with Wallem is referred to as a "Member". Wallem reserves the right to
amend or modify these terms and conditions at any time with or without express prior
notice (although Wallem will, in so far as possible, post any changes of the terms
and conditions on this Website). By using the Wallem web site and/or the Services,
you irrevocably and unconditionally accept and agree to be bound by these terms
and conditions.
Use of Services
No Service may be used to post, publish or transmit any unlawful, harmful, threatening,
abusive, harassing, defamatory or otherwise objectionable material of any kind,
including but not limited to any material which encourages conduct that would harm
Wallem's business interests, constitute a criminal offence, violate any rights (including
intellectual property rights) of any third party, or otherwise violate any applicable
local, state, national or international law. Wallem reserves the right, without
any liability to the Member, to suspend or shut down any account that in Wallem's
sole opinion violates or is imminently likely to violate any of the above restrictions
on use.
In respect of most Services, Members may specify who may have access to the Service.
Some access to Services by Wallem staff may be necessary to maintain systems and
programs and to ensure compliance with usage guidelines. While Wallem staff will
not access the Services except for these purposes, Wallem cannot guarantee absolute
privacy of the Services.
Members are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their passwords /
login IDs at all times. If a Member becomes aware of any unauthorised access to
the Services by any person who uses a password / login ID without the Member's authorisation,
or if the Member believes that a password / login ID has been lost or stolen, the
Member will immediately notify Wallem at isd@wallem.com.
