Effective Date

These Terms & Conditions govern access to and use of the Cacxi platform, including booking, calendar sync, chatbot/AI, SMS/OTP, web content crawling/RAG, and related services provided by CACXI Pty Ltd (ABN 75 686 510 770), service address Tallawong, NSW 2762, Australia.
1. Who We Are & Scope
“Cacxi”, “we”, “our”, “us” refers to CACXI Pty Ltd. “Platform” means the Cacxi website, dashboards, APIs and integrations. “Services” include scheduling, Google Calendar sync, chatbot interactions, SMS/OTP reminders, website crawling and retrieval-augmented generation (RAG), and related features.
These Terms apply to two audiences: Users (businesses/teams who create a Cacxi account to manage resources and accept bookings), and End Customers (individuals who make a booking with a User through Cacxi). End Customers may also be subject to the User’s own terms (e.g., clinic/salon policy).
2. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using the Services, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, you must not use the Services.
3. Key Definitions
- Account: a User account at Cacxi.
- Booking Data: appointment details, resources, availability and related information.
- Content: data, text, files, prompts, websites and other material provided or connected to your use of the Services.
- Third-Party Services: Google Calendar, Stripe, SMS/email providers, LLM/TTS/STT providers, hosting and analytics vendors.
4. Eligibility, Account & Security
- You must be legally capable of entering into contracts.
- Keep your account secure. You are responsible for all actions under your Account, including OTP logins and actions by your authorised staff/agents.

5. Acceptable Use (Prohibited Activities)
You must not: break the law; scrape or overload the Platform; send spam or unlawful messages; upload malware; submit or attempt to process Sensitive Information (e.g., raw card numbers, government IDs, medical data) except via approved secure flows and a valid lawful basis; infringe IP; attempt to bypass security or rate limits; or misuse Third-Party Services via our integrations. We may investigate, suspend or terminate accounts for suspected breaches.
6. Privacy & Australian Law
We handle personal information under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth) and the Australian Privacy Principles. See our Privacy Policy (incorporated by reference). We collect names, emails, phone numbers, booking data, chat transcripts, device/usage metadata, and content Users authorise us to crawl/index for RAG. We use this data to operate, secure, support and improve the Services. We may process data in and outside Australia using vetted providers. We assess suspected Notifiable Data Breaches and notify where required.
Where we process personal information on your behalf, our Data Processing Addendum (DPA) forms part of these Terms. Request via contact@cacxi.com.
7. Website Crawling, Indexing & RAG (AI)
- When enabled, you authorise us to crawl and index your website(s), files and knowledge sources for RAG.
- You warrant you have rights/permissions to allow crawling and to license that content to us for the Services.
- AI outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete or outdated and must not be relied upon as professional advice.
- You grant Cacxi a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to use, reproduce, transform, cache and display your Content solely to deliver and improve the Services.
8. Calendar Sync & Bookings
Users may connect Google Calendar to determine availability and to create/update events. You authorise us to read/write events as needed. Sync can fail (tokens, permissions, outages). You remain responsible for verifying bookings, preventing double-bookings and honouring appointments. We are not liable for missed appointments, conflicts or sync errors.
9. SMS, OTP, Email & Communications
- By using the Services, you (and End Customers) consent to receive OTPs, booking confirmations, reminders and service messages by SMS/email. Carrier charges may apply. Delivery depends on third-party networks; delays/failures can occur.
- No marketing: Cacxi does not send marketing campaigns at this time. If this changes, we will update these Terms and provide an opt-out mechanism.
- Users must comply with applicable communications laws (e.g., AU Spam Act 2003) for any messages they initiate via their own systems.
10. Payments, Subscriptions, Stripe & Auto-Debit
10.1 Payment Processor
We use Stripe to process payments. Stripe stores and tokenises payment card details. We do not store raw card numbers on Cacxi systems. Your use of payments is subject to Stripe’s terms and policies in addition to these Terms.
10.2 Card-on-File & Recurring Billing
By adding a payment method, you authorise us (via Stripe) to store a payment token and to charge automatically for subscriptions, seat add-ons, usage fees, taxes and other agreed charges; to use card network account updater services; and to perform pre-authorisations.
10.3 Plans, Renewals & Price Changes
Subscriptions renew automatically at then-current rates unless cancelled before the end of the current term. We may change prices or features with notice; changes apply on renewal unless otherwise stated. Trials: if not cancelled before trial end, billing commences.
10.4 Taxes
Fees are exclusive of GST unless stated; applicable taxes will be added to invoices.

Keep a valid payment method on file. If a charge fails, we may retry, limit features or suspend/terminate the Account after notice. Late amounts may accrue reasonable admin/collection costs where permitted.

10.8 BECS Direct Debit
If you enable bank debit in Australia, you agree to our Direct Debit Request (DDR) Service Agreement (available via contact@cacxi.com). Bank debits are handled by Stripe/its partners under that DDR.
11. Service Levels, Maintenance & Changes
The Services are provided “as is” and “as available”. We aim for high availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted service. We may modify features or perform maintenance; if a change materially reduces core functionality we will provide notice and options.
12. Intellectual Property
We own the Services, software, UI, logos and related IP. You own your Content. You grant us the limited licences necessary to operate, protect, troubleshoot and improve the Services (including use of non-personalised data for quality/safety as disclosed in our Privacy Policy). You must not copy, modify, reverse engineer or build competing services from our IP.
13. Confidentiality
Non-public information disclosed by one party to the other must be kept confidential and used only for the Services, except where disclosure is required by law.
14. Third-Party Services & Dependencies
Use of Third-Party Services (e.g., Google Calendar, Stripe, SMS/email, LLM providers) is subject to their terms. We are not responsible for their acts, omissions, outages, security or content. Integrations may require you to maintain valid tokens/permissions.
15. Data Retention, Export & Deletion
We keep data for as long as needed to provide the Services and as required by law. On request or closure, we will delete or de-identify personal information, subject to legal/backup constraints. If you need data export or deletion assistance, email contact@cacxi.com.
16. Security
We implement reasonable technical and organisational measures. No system is 100% secure. You are responsible for safeguarding login methods (including OTP delivery channels), using strong device security and notifying us promptly of suspected compromise.
17. Consumer Guarantees (ACL) & Disclaimers
Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies non-excludable rights under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL). Subject to the ACL and to the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services are provided without warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or non-infringement. AI outputs are experimental and may contain errors.
18. Limitation of Liability
- Indirect loss excluded: We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or exemplary damages, including loss of profits, goodwill, missed bookings or data loss.
- Cap: Our aggregate liability for all claims in any 12-month period is limited to the lesser of AUD $100 or the fees you paid to us in that period. These limits do not apply to liability that cannot be limited by law.
19. Indemnities
You indemnify us (and our officers, employees, contractors) from claims, losses, damages, costs and expenses arising out of your breach of these Terms, your Content (including website content you authorise us to crawl), your misuse of the Services, infringement of third-party rights, and disputes between you and End Customers.
20. Suspension & Termination
We may suspend or terminate your Account (with notice where practicable) if you breach these Terms or the law, payment is overdue, we detect fraud/security risk/abuse, or we discontinue the Services. Upon termination, access ceases; we may delete data after a retention window; certain clauses survive (e.g., 12–19, 22–23).
21. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms. We will notify you (email/in-app). Updates take effect from the stated date. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.

These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. The courts of New South Wales have non-exclusive jurisdiction.
23. Force Majeure
We are not liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond our reasonable control (e.g., internet/cloud outages, DDoS, power failures, pandemics, natural disasters, acts of government, or supplier failures).
