2 e-Signature Solution

We may make available a third party electronic signature solution for use in conjunction with the Services (an e-Signature Solution). The following paragraphs apply to your access and use of an e-Signature Solution depending on the licensing model it is provided under:

(a) where we offer, and you have elected to use, a “bring your own licence” option for an e-Signature Solution, you are responsible for procuring any licences necessary to use the e-Signature Solution. The contractual relationship for your use of the e-Signature Solution is solely between you and the provider of the e-Signature Solution, and you must comply with any terms applicable to the access and use of the e-Signature Solution as agreed with that provider.  Any fees for such access and use will be invoiced by that provider, and not us; or

(b) in all other cases:

(i) while the e-Signature Solution is provided under, and subject to, these T&Cs, you must still comply with, where the e-Signature Solution is:

(A) DocuSign, the terms and conditions available at: www.docusign.com/company/terms-and-conditions/reseller; or

(ii) if you wish to make any claim that the e-Signature Solution fails to perform as promised by either us or its provider, you agree to submit that claim to us and permit us to manage the claim with the provider of the e-Signature Solution;

(iii) your use of the e-Signature Solution is only for a limited-capability, limited-use of the e-Signature Solution solely in conjunction with the Services. Unless you otherwise agree with the provider of the e-Signature Solution, you may not use the e-Signature Solution by itself or other than in conjunction with the Services. You may only use the e-Signature Solution for so long as we offer it, and you have no on-going term-based right during which we must provide the e-Signature Solution;

(iv) we may provide reasonable information about you and your use of the e-Signature Solution to the provider of that solution, including where you inform us that you wish to upgrade your account type for the e-Signature Solution or purchase other products and services of that provider. The provider of the e-Signature Solution may use this information to provide notices to you as it deems reasonably necessary other than for marketing purposes. Any use or disclosure of such information will be in accordance with that provider’s terms and conditions and privacy policy. Where agreed with you, the provider of the e-Signature Solution may from time to time provide support and other professional services to you in relation to the e-Signature Solution; and

(v) we may refuse to provide or cease providing the e-Signature Solution to you where required to do so under our agreement with the provider of that e-Signature Solution, including where the provider reasonably objects to such use (for example, if it reasonably suspects that you are engaging in activities that violate the law).

3 Deed Stamping Service

We may offer a service for the lodgement of duty returns in relation to trust deeds and the payment of tax imposed for lodgement on your behalf in New South Wales (NSW) or Victoria (Deed Stamping Service).  The following paragraphs apply to your access to and use of the Deed Stamping Service:

(a) to provide the Deed Stamping Service, we will input information provided by you into the online system of the relevant revenue office (Online System) (in the case of a NSW transaction, Revenue NSW or in the case of a Victorian transaction, the Victorian State Revenue Office);

(b) you may access and use the Deed Stamping Service only where you are the relevant taxpayer or an agent of the relevant taxpayer authorised to do so (you or that taxpayer, as applicable, being the Relevant Taxpayer).   Each time you access or use the Deed Stamping Service on another person’s behalf, you warrant that you are authorised by that person to:

(i) access and disclose to us and the relevant revenue office all information, documents, records, consents and supporting evidence required to submit the relevant transaction to an Online System (including any that may be required to evidence eligibility for any duties concession) (Required Information);

(ii) carry out the relevant transaction and undertake all associated functions in connection with the transaction, including accessing and using the Deed Stamping Service on that person’s behalf; and

(iii) if your authorisation is based on you holding a certain position or accreditation, you currently hold that position or accreditation;

(c) by providing the Deed Stamping Service, we will be acting:

(i) in the case of NSW, as an agent to the Relevant Taxpayer under section 37 of the Taxation Administration Act 1996 (NSW); or

(ii) in the case of Victoria, as an agent to the Relevant Taxpayer under section 39 of the Taxation Administration Act 1997 (Vic).

You authorise us to act as the agent of the Relevant Taxpayer in dealing with the relevant revenue office in respect of each transaction for which you use the Deed Stamping Service;

(d) you agree to promptly provide us with all Required Information and all assistance reasonably required by us to perform the Deed Stamping Service and, if it is not you, the instructions of the Relevant Taxpayer. You must promptly comply with any verification of identity requirements requested by us;

(e) you must ensure that all information (including all information contained in any Required Information) provided by you in connection with the Deed Stamping Service is complete, correct and not misleading (including that it does not seek to fraudulently reduce a duty assessment), and that each other party to the transaction (if any) has agreed that the information is complete, correct and not misleading. You acknowledge that it is an offence to provide false or misleading information to a revenue office. We will not be responsible for any cost, loss, liability or penalty incurred by you or (where it is not you) the Relevant Taxpayer in connection with provision of any false or misleading information;

(f) you will be required to pay any tax payable in respect of a transaction for which you use the Deed Stamping Service, in addition to the Fees payable under clause 5, and must provide us with payment for the tax payable in respect of each such transaction, prior to our submission of such transaction to an Online System. We will not submit a transaction to an Online System prior to receiving payment from you.  If a greater amount of duty is assessed as being payable by the relevant revenue office than you have paid to us, you must promptly pay us an additional amount needed to reflect that duty, unless you choose to attempt to cancel the lodgement in which case paragraphs (h) and (k) will apply.  Without limiting the foregoing, you will be liable to pay any interest that accrues in respect of a tax liability caused by your failure to make a payment by a due date;

(g) submitting information in respect of a transaction to an Online System will cause the Relevant Taxpayer to incur a tax liability. Nothing in these T&Cs and no act or omission by us will, in any way, affect or limit the Relevant Taxpayer’s obligation to pay any tax liability incurred by that taxpayer, or, transfer any tax liability to us;

(h) once we submit information provided by you to an Online System, that information may not be able to be modified or cancelled and the Relevant Taxpayer will be liable for any tax liability which is incurred. We will not be liable for any tax liability, charges or other damages or loss arising in connection with the provision of any incorrect information by you;

(i) submission of a transaction to Online System for lodgement does not guarantee that you will successfully obtain the requested lodgement and we do not guarantee that you will successfully obtain any requested lodgement. A transaction may need to be manually reviewed by the relevant revenue office and this may delay the time for lodgement of a transaction or result in the submission being unsuccessful;

(j) we may refuse to provide, suspend or cease providing the Deed Stamping Service to you at any time, including if we are required to do so under our agreement with the relevant revenue office.  Despite clause 17, we may also vary these T&Cs as they apply to the Deed Stamping Services or the Fees applicable to the Deed Stamping Services at any time to reflect any requirements or fees imposed on us by a revenue office, by giving you notice.  Such variations will, however, only apply to any new transactions for which you use the Deed Stamping Services after the date of our notice;

(k) if a transaction is unsuccessful (including because we refuse, suspend or cease providing the Deed Stamping Services), we will refund you:

(i) any tax you have already paid to us for that transaction that we have not already submitted to the relevant revenue office or which is refunded to us by the relevant revenue office, less any fees imposed by the relevant revenue office in connection with the lodgement; and

(ii) if our error caused the transaction to be unsuccessful, any Fees paid in respect of the transaction.  In all other cases, the Fees for the transaction will remain payable;

(l) you must keep records of all information held by you in connection with each transaction for which you use the Deed Stamping Service, including all Required Information, documents including all original documents such as endorsed instruments and duties statements, all records and supporting evidence and, if you are acting on behalf of the Relevant Taxpayer, the instructions of that taxpayer (Records) for not less than 5 years after a transaction has been finalised.  Records may be kept electronically. You must promptly provide us with copies of any Records if requested by us; and

(m) without limiting clause 7, your attention is drawn to the fact that the revenue offices may use and disclose personal information that is disclosed to them in accordance with their respective privacy policies, including that they may publish certain personal information in a publicly available electronic register, and disclose personal information to third parties such as the Australian Taxation Office, other state and territory revenue offices and law enforcement agencies.
