Terms of use

For the free trial of Hermanas Tools at tools.hermanaseng.com. Last updated [date]. By signing in you accept these terms on behalf of yourself and, if you are using a work account, your organisation.

1. What the service is

Hermanas Tools is a set of browser-based planning tools — currently Schedule Lens, Approvals Horizon and the Integrated Reporting Dashboard — provided by Hermanas Engineering [Pty Ltd, ABN xx xxx xxx xxx] ("Hermanas"). The free trial lets your organisation use them on its own project files during the study and planning phase of a project.

2. Free, as is

The trial is provided free of charge and "as is". We aim for the tools to be available and correct, but we do not promise either. We may be unavailable for maintenance, we may fix things, and we may change how a tool works without notice. Nothing in the trial is a commitment to any level of service.

3. Results are an aid, not advice

The tools read your files and present what is in them. They do not replace the schedule of record (your P6 file), your planner, or your own checks. Approvals Horizon tags activities to statutory regimes by keyword; it is a planning aid and not legal or regulatory advice, and it may miss or mis-tag an approval. You are responsible for every decision you make with the results, and Hermanas is not liable for loss, delay or cost arising from reliance on them, to the fullest extent the law allows. Nothing in these terms excludes rights you have under the Australian Consumer Law that cannot be excluded.

4. Your files

• You must have the right to upload every file you load — your own, or your employer's or client's with their permission. If a project's confidentiality terms do not allow a schedule to be processed by a third party in Australia, do not upload it; use the sample project instead.
• Your files remain yours. We take no licence over them except what is needed to run the tools for you, as described in our Privacy page.
• You are responsible for what the people you invite to your workspace do in it.

5. Limits of the trial

• Up to [10] schedules of up to [20] MB and [5 000] activities each, and up to [5] dashboard builds — the tools tell you when you reach a limit.
• Exports and printed reports carry a "Trial — Hermanas Tools" watermark.
• A trial workspace, its files and results are deleted 30 days after the last sign-in by anyone in it. We send one reminder. Deletion is permanent.
• One trial workspace per organisation. We may decline or close a trial we think is being used for something other than evaluating the tools on a real project.

6. Acceptable use

Do not try to extract the tools' code, rules or libraries, probe or load the service beyond normal use, upload anything unlawful or malicious, or share your sign-in with people outside your organisation. We may suspend a workspace that does.

7. Changes and ending the service

We may change these terms, change the tools, or end the free trial at any time. For anything material we will tell signed-in users on their next sign-in and give at least [14] days before a trial workspace is closed, so you can export your results. You can end your use at any time by asking us to delete your workspace.

8. Intellectual property

The tools, their design, rules, libraries and reports are Hermanas' intellectual property. The outputs built from your files are yours to use within your organisation and with your client. You may not resell, rebrand or offer the tools to others.

9. Licensed use

Use of the tools beyond the trial — on an execution-phase project, without limits or watermark, or with the full Hermanas platform — is under a separate written licence, which takes precedence over these terms where they differ.

10. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Western Australia, and the courts there have jurisdiction. If part of these terms is unenforceable the rest still applies.
