2) Provision of Services

  1. Provided that you fully comply with these Terms of Service, Frogparking grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, limited right to access and use the Services that you register for, for your own personal or your internal commercial use only, and in the case of a Mobile App, on one device.
  2. We may change any aspect of a Mobile App or another Service at any time, and/or impose restrictions or limitations to access without incurring any obligation or liability to you. We will endeavour to provide notice of any changes, restrictions or limitations to your access (although this may not be prior to such changes).

4) Use of Frogparking

  1. You are responsible for providing Frogparking with the correct information about you when you register for Services, including, without limitation, your name, vehicle license plate, mobile telephone number, business details (if relevant), email address and method of payment details. You must inform Frogparking of any changes to this information in writing so that we can update your information in our system. You are responsible for keeping your password and login information for our website secret so that only you can access your account's personal pages on our website.
  2. You activate the Services by using the Frogparking Mobile App on your mobile device when you park your vehicle in a designated parking space. This will involve data being sent from your device, for which your internet service provider or network will charge you at their applicable rates. You are responsible for all fees associated with the use of your mobile device (e.g., data charges) and we are not liable for any such charges.
  3. You are responsible for correctly entering the relevant parking space number. Note that use of the Services does not guarantee you a parking space. You only activate the Services after you have found an available space. To correctly activate the Services when you have parked, you must follow the instructions given to you via the Mobile App on your mobile device. You are responsible for ensuring that the space you have parked your vehicle in matches the space shown on the map screen in the Frogparking application.
  4. Increases or modifications to parking fees are beyond Frogparking's control. We pass the fees through to you and we are not responsible for any fee increases.

Parking rates can be changed by the parking space owner at any time.
  5. You are responsible for ensuring that you have properly activated the Services for the relevant parking space before you leave your vehicle unattended. You are responsible for any fine, ticket or penalty charge issued between the time of parking the vehicle and the notification via mobile device that the vehicle is validly parked. In the event that the Services are unavailable, you must pay the appropriate parking fee that is due by paying on the premises (e.g. by paying for your parking at the nearest parking terminal).
  6. Frogparking is not responsible for any fines, parking tickets, penalty notices and the enforcement of vehicle parking related offenses you incur or receive or for any damage to your vehicle. You are solely responsible for resolving with the relevant authorities any issues that you may have regarding the issuance of fines, parking tickets, penalty notices or your vehicle being impounded.
  7. You are solely responsible for driving and parking safely and carefully, and in compliance with all applicable laws. The use of our application while driving or parking may cause a distraction, and may be prohibited under applicable law. You agree to our Services (including Mobile Apps) in a safe manner that complies with all applicable laws; we are neither responsible nor liable for uses of any Services that are unsafe or not in compliance with applicable laws or these Terms of Service. If necessary, please pull over in a safe and legal manner when using the Services, and remain aware of your surroundings at all times. Your use of the Services is at your sole risk. Location data may not be accurate.

11) Miscellaneous

Refund Policy

Frogparking’s core business is the provision of technology services; we facilitate transactions between motorists and parking providers (merchants). Frogparking has a limited refund policy. Where you feel that it is appropriate for a refund to be provided by Frogparking, rather than the parking provider, simply provide details of the transaction to support@frogparking.com to request a refund.

Age Restrictions

We intend for our website and the Services to be used by adults only and individuals or companies that can form legally binding contracts under applicable law. Minors should not use the website and/or the Services. If you do not qualify, you are not permitted to use our website or order or use any of the Services, and you do not have our consent to do so.

Severability

If any provision of these Terms of Service is found to be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be considered severable from the remaining Terms of Service, and will not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.

Governing Law

These Terms of Service shall be governed by and interpreted in accordance with the laws of New Zealand. Any and all disputes arising under or related to these Terms of Service shall be adjudicated exclusively in New Zealand.
