Terms & Conditions

Queensland Brief is an independent publication about startups, founders and venture capital in Queensland, published by Darcy Porter in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia. Contact: darcy@queenslandbrief.com.

Everything on this site and in the newsletter is currently free. We do not sell subscriptions, memberships, courses, events or any other product, and we never ask for payment details. Because there are no purchases, there is nothing to refund.

If we introduce anything paid in future, we will publish a refund and cancellation policy that complies with the Australian Consumer Law before taking any payment, and your rights to a remedy for a service that is not delivered as described are not affected by these terms.

Articles on Queensland Brief are journalism, research and opinion. They are general information only and are not financial product advice, investment advice, legal advice or a recommendation to buy, sell or invest in any company or security. Nothing here takes your personal circumstances into account.

Do your own research and speak to a licensed professional before making any investment or business decision. We are not liable for decisions made on the basis of what you read here.

We research carefully and cite our sources at the bottom of articles. Even so, information can be incomplete, change over time or turn out to be wrong. We make no guarantee that content is accurate, complete or current.

If something we published about you or your company is inaccurate, email darcy@queenslandbrief.com and we will review it promptly and correct or update the article where a correction is warranted.

The written articles, brand, name and design of Queensland Brief belong to the publisher. You are welcome to quote short extracts with clear attribution and a link back. Republishing whole articles, or using our content to train commercial models, requires written permission.

Company logos, product screenshots and photographs supplied by or depicting third parties remain the property of their owners and are used for the purpose of news reporting, review and commentary. If you own an image used here and want it credited differently or removed, contact us and we will act quickly.

We link to external sources so you can check our work. We do not control those sites and are not responsible for their content, accuracy or privacy practices.

Subscribing means you consent to receiving the newsletter. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in any email. See the Privacy Policy for how your email address is handled.

Please do not attempt to disrupt the site, scrape it at a volume that degrades service for others, or misuse the subscribe form (including submitting an address that is not yours).

To the maximum extent permitted by law, and other than rights that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law, Queensland Brief is provided "as is" and we exclude liability for any loss arising from your use of the site or reliance on its content.

These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia, and you submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of its courts.

We may update these terms; the date at the top of the page always shows the current version.
