Gallagher Cloud Services - General Terms
Last Updated: 16 December 2024
1 Your Agreement
1.1 Overview: These Cloud Services - General Terms (“General Terms”) apply to your access and use of the Cloud Services provided by Gallagher Group Limited (“Gallagher”), a company based in New Zealand. Use of the Command Centre software is subject to Gallagher’s Software License and Maintenance Terms and Conditions which apply alongside these Cloud Services Terms.
1.2 Your Access to Cloud Services: You can access and use Cloud Services by purchasing a subscription to a Service. Gallagher may also offer a free trial to use a Service, or a free version of a Service, at its discretion.
1.3 Your Agreement with Gallagher: The General Terms and the specific Service Terms, if any, together form the binding ‘Agreement’ between you and Gallagher. By purchasing a subscription to a Service, or using any of Cloud Services, you agree to this Agreement.
1.4 Authorised Users: You confirm that each Authorised User is authorised to use Cloud Services on your behalf.
1.5 Channel Partners: If you subscribe to Cloud Services through a Channel Partner instead of directly from Gallagher, the terms and conditions set by the Channel Partner will apply alongside your Agreement. You acknowledge that Gallagher Channel Partners are not Gallagher’s agents, but rather are independent third party contractors. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Gallagher is not responsible for any issues or liabilities related to your arrangements with a Channel Partner.
1.6 Inconsistency: To the extent that there is any inconsistency between the Service Terms and these General Terms, the Service Terms will take priority.
1.7 No other terms apply: The Agreement is the only set of terms that apply to your access and use of Gallagher’s Cloud Services. Any other terms are not applicable.
1.8 Updates to the Terms: Gallagher may update these General Terms and any Service Terms from time to time by updating them on Gallagher’s website and sending you a notification about the changes.
1.9 Continuous Agreement: If you or any Authorised User do not agree to the terms and conditions of the Agreement at any time (including any updates as per clause 1.8), you and your Authorised Users must stop accessing and using the Cloud Services, and you may terminate your Agreement under clause 5.1a.
2 Your subscription to Cloud Services
2.1 Your Subscription: When you enter into an Agreement, Gallagher will enable the Service(s) that you have subscribed to, on the parameters agreed with your Channel Partner. You can only use the Service during the Term and within the specified Territory.
2.2 Care Plan: To purchase a subscription to a Service, you must have a current Care Plan in place and you must maintain a Care Plan for the duration of the subscription. You must also be using a supported version of the software.
2.3 Subscription term: Unless otherwise agreed with you, the term of your subscription to a Service will align with your annual Care Plan period (“Initial Term”).
2.4 Renewal: Following the Initial Term, you may renew your subscription by contacting your Channel Partner for an offer to renew your subscription. If you proceed with renewing your subscription, the term of your Agreement will be extended for another year (‘Extended Term’) at the applicable Subscription Fee (under clause 2.6). We will remind you in advance of your subscription needing to be renewed.
2.5 Payment of Subscription Fees: You must pay the agreed Subscription Fee, without any setoffs or deductions, to your Channel Partner, or as otherwise agreed.
2.6 Changes to Subscription Fees: Gallagher may change the applicable Subscription Fees from time to time by notifying Gallagher Channel Partners. The updated Subscription Fee will only apply to you if and when your subscription renews.
2.7 Monitoring your use: Gallagher may monitor and log your use of Cloud Services. If the use of any Service materially exceeds Normal Use, then Gallagher may consider that your usage is Excessive Use.
2.8 Excessive Use: If the level of your use of Cloud Services reaches Excessive Use levels, Gallagher may notify you in writing and request that you stop or alter your usage to meet the Normal Use levels. If your excessive use continues for more than 14 days after Gallagher’s notice, Gallagher may (at Gallagher’s discretion, acting reasonably) charge you additional Subscription Fees at the applicable rates, suspend, modify, or restrict your access to the Service, or terminate your subscription to the Service.
3 Use of the Cloud Services
3.1 Use by Authorised Users: You must only access and use the Services you have subscribed to, in accordance with your Agreement and the law. You must keep the information of your Authorised Users accurate and up to date (including any contact information).
3.2 Responsibility: You are solely responsible and liable for actions of your Authorised User(s).
3.3 Protection of accounts: You must keep your account information secure and confidential and notify Gallagher immediately if you or your Authorised Users become aware of any unauthorised access to or use of your Cloud Services.
3.4 Suspension: Gallagher may revoke or suspend access to an account if it considers it is being misused or has been compromised, or it is reasonably necessary to protect the security and integrity of Cloud Services
4 Our Cloud Services
4.1 Services: Gallagher will provide you with the Service(s) that you have subscribed to in accordance with this Agreement.
4.2 Updates to existing Services: Gallagher may update Cloud Services with upgrades, patches, bug fixes, or other maintenance. If Gallagher makes significant changes to Cloud Services, it will give you reasonable notice. If such changes negatively impact your use of the Cloud Services, whether due to decreased functionality or otherwise, and you do not want to continue your subscription to a Service that will undergo such material changes, you can terminate your subscription to that Service or your Agreement under clause 5.1a.
4.3 Upgrades, enhancements, and new Services: Gallagher may offer you upgrades, enhancements, and new Services or other options relating to Cloud Services from time to time. Additional Subscription Fees may apply if you choose to subscribe to these Services.
4.4 Availability: While Gallagher endeavours to make Cloud Services available on an uninterrupted and error-free basis, Gallagher does not warrant that the services will be available at all times or operate without error. Gallagher will try to give you advance notice of any scheduled maintenance, except in emergencies or urgent situations.
4.5 Service Levels: Gallagher will use reasonable endeavours to meet the applicable Service Levels set out in the Service Level Availability terms. Your sole remedy arising from or in connection with Gallagher’s failure to meet the Service Levels is to terminate your subscription to the relevant Service.
4.6 No other warranties: To the maximum extent allowed by law (a) Gallagher does not provide any warranties or make any representations regarding Cloud Services or your use of any Service, except for those explicitly stated in your Agreement; (b) Gallagher excludes any and all warranties that might otherwise be implied into the Agreement, including but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. Gallagher does not warrant that the functions contained in the Cloud Services will meet your business requirements or that the operation of the Cloud Services will be uninterrupted or error free. However, nothing in your Agreement is meant to limit the minimum statutory guarantees that apply to Cloud Services under the law to the extent these are not permitted by law to be excluded or limited.
4.7 Suspension: Gallagher may occasionally suspend access to Cloud Services for any reason, without affecting your obligation to pay the Subscription Fees. This could be to perform maintenance, updates, or upgrades, due to issues with third parties, to manage security risks, if Gallagher suspects you are breaching the Agreement (including not paying), during any Force Majeure Event, or if Gallagher believe it is legally required to do so.
4.8 Scheduled maintenance: Gallagher will use reasonable endeavours to give you prior notice of any suspension of Cloud Services for scheduled maintenance, but may otherwise suspend access under clause 4.7 (Suspension) without notice.
4.9 Restrictions on use: You must only access and use the Service for your internal business purposes, and you must not:
- reverse engineer, alter, modify, or reproduce Cloud Services or its functionalities;
- let anyone other than your Authorised Users use the User Accounts to access Cloud Services;
- leave computer devices unattended when connected to Cloud Services;

4.10 Experience Improvement Program: Gallagher operates a customer experience improvement program (‘CEIP’) that allows Gallagher to access product usage data and statistics which Gallagher can use to improve the performance and usability of Cloud Services and increase value for Gallagher’s customers. Details of the CEIP and its privacy statement can be found here.
4.11 Usage data: In addition to collecting CEIP information, Cloud Services may use data analytics functionality that automatically collects and tracks your use of certain services. The type of data collected includes, but is not limited to, the number of users and the types of features used. Gallagher uses this data for product development, quality control purposes and to monitor the performance of its products and services.

- as otherwise set out in your Agreement.
5.2 Termination by Gallagher: Gallagher may terminate your Subscription to any Service(s) or the Agreement:

- immediately on notice to you if you commit any material breach of the Agreement which is incapable of remedy;

After 3 months, your User Accounts and any associated Customer Data will be permanently deleted.
5.4 Failure to pay: If you are paying Gallagher for the Services directly and you do not pay your Subscription Fee in full and on time, Gallagher may charge late payment interest on the outstanding amount at a rate equal to the prevailing Gallagher overdraft rate of interest plus six (6) per cent p.a. from the due date until it is paid in full. Additionally, Gallagher may recover from you all costs incurred in connection with the late payment, including any costs related to referring the matter to an external debt collection agency.
5.5 Sales Tax: Unless otherwise agreed in writing, the Subscription Fee does not include any sales tax, value added tax, consumption tax, or goods and services tax in any jurisdiction. If applicable, you will need to pay these taxes at the rate in effect at the time of supply.
5.6 Withholdings: If the law requires you to make any deduction or withholding from a payment to Gallagher under your Agreement, Gallagher will increase the amount charged to you so that, after the deduction or withholding, Gallagher receives the same amount it would have gotten if no deduction or withholding was needed.
6 Intellectual property rights

8 Indemnity
