Care Networx Ltd will not be responsible for any delay in the availability of the Platform that results from the Customer providing incorrect or incomplete information.
No part of the Platform constitutes a contractual offer capable of acceptance.

Acceptance is indicated by Care Networx Ltd sending a subscription confirmation by email. Only once Care Networx Ltd has sent a subscription confirmation will there be a legally binding agreement between Care Networx Ltd and the Customer in accordance with these terms and conditions.

The Customer can add additional Clients to its subscription via the Customer Account.
The Customer must notify Care Networx Ltd in writing if it would like Care Networx Ltd to permanently delete a Client from its subscription. This can be done by contacting admin@carenetworx.com.

The Customer shall not be able to re-activate any Client marked as “inactive” directly. In the event that the Customer incorrectly marks a Client as “inactive” it must contact Care Networx Ltd who, in its ultimate discretion, will determine whether the Client can be “reactivated” and/or any adjustment required to the Subscription Fee.

5. the other party commences negotiations with all or any class of its creditors with a view to rescheduling any of its debts, or makes a proposal for or enters into any compromise or arrangement with its creditors other than for the sole purpose of a scheme for a solvent amalgamation of that other party with one or more other companies or the solvent reconstruction of that other party;
6. a petition is filed, a notice is given, a resolution is passed, or an order is made, for or in connection with the winding up of that other party other than for the sole purpose of a scheme for a solvent amalgamation of that other party with one or more other companies or the solvent reconstruction of that other party;

11. any event occurs, or proceeding is taken, with respect to the other party in any jurisdiction to which it is subject that has an effect equivalent or similar to any of the events mentioned in clause d – j (inclusive);
12. the other party suspends or ceases, or threatens to suspend or cease, carrying on all or a substantial part of its business.

Care Networx Ltd shall use reasonable commercial endeavours to deliver the back-up to the Customer within 30 days of its receipt of a reasonable written request, provided that the Customer has, at that time, paid all fees and charges outstanding at and resulting from termination (whether or not due at the date of termination) and has confirmed in writing that it remains entitled to receive all of the Customer Data and all other data (including any personal data) of any Client, Authorised User or Authorised Representative on the Customer Account on that date.
