01
Status and application
These Terms of Service are a draft for review and are not approved terms for commercial use. The final legal entity, effective date and commercial arrangements remain to be confirmed. A written proposal or service order may set out terms for a particular customer, subject to a final agreement.
Deadline Monitor is a software-enabled business monitoring application. These terms must receive qualified South African legal review before they are relied on.
02
Service scope
Depending on the applicable proposal and configuration, the service may support client organisations, monitored company-record metadata, issue and expiry dates, responsible contacts, risk and status, follow-ups, reminders, recurring operational tasks, consultant and assistant-consultant workflows, client workspaces, calendars, reports and audit history.
The features, access, implementation, support and service levels available to a customer must be confirmed in the applicable written proposal or service order. Do not assume that a planned or described capability is available in every workspace.
03
Version 1 boundaries
Version 1 does not store clients' underlying confidential company documents.
Some legacy operational areas continue to use browser localStorage. Recurring-task migration and production deployment remain pending; this draft is not a production-readiness or security guarantee.
- Do not submit passwords, SARS or CIPC credentials, authentication codes, bank statements, tax returns, full identity numbers or confidential document contents.
- Reminder and follow-up features do not guarantee that a message will be delivered or that a deadline will be met.
- The service does not provide legal, tax, accounting or regulatory advice and does not automatically prepare or submit regulatory filings.
04
Accounts and authorised users
Customers must provide accurate account information, maintain the confidentiality of their credentials, use individual accounts as configured, and promptly notify the authorised administrator of suspected unauthorised access. Customer administrators are responsible for assigning and reviewing workspace roles and memberships.
Access is subject to authentication, role, workspace and organisation authorization controls. Customers must not attempt to access another organisation's data or bypass access controls.
05
Client responsibilities
The client remains responsible for the accuracy and lawfulness of information it provides, its underlying documents, and deciding and acting on required renewals, submissions and other obligations.
- Check the organisation register, record types, responsible contacts, issue dates, expiry dates and follow-up dates, and promptly correct errors.
- Keep original and replacement documents in the client's own approved environment; Deadline Monitor is not document storage.
- Monitor notifications and task queues, arrange renewals and follow-ups, and retain independent controls for critical dates.
- Maintain a current list of authorised users and contacts, and notify the service administrator when authority changes.
- Use only approved metadata and avoid putting sensitive or confidential details in notes or completion evidence.
06
Acceptable use
Customers and users must use the service lawfully, provide only information they are authorised to provide, and not interfere with the service, bypass access controls, upload malicious content, or use the service to harm others.
07
Reminders, notifications and reports
Reminder dates and reports depend on the metadata and configuration entered into the service. They are operational aids and may be inaccurate, delayed or unavailable. No reminder delivery is guaranteed.
Reports, dashboard statuses, task histories and audit histories do not verify underlying documents or confirm that a legal, tax, contractual or regulatory obligation has been met. Clients must independently verify important dates and outcomes.
08
No compliance or professional-advice guarantee
Deadline Monitor does not guarantee legal, tax, accounting or regulatory compliance, and does not provide legal, tax or other professional advice. No reminder, report, task status or audit history should be treated as a compliance certificate or as a substitute for advice from a qualified professional.
09
Privacy and information handling
The handling of personal information is described in the draft Privacy Notice. The parties' roles, lawful instructions, access arrangements, security controls, retention and deletion terms, and any provider or cross-border processing arrangements must be confirmed before commercial use.
Read the Deadline Monitor Privacy Notice.
10
Plans, fees and payment
Any setup fee, subscription, package limits, included features, taxes, invoice schedule, payment due dates, and changes or additional services will be stated in the applicable written proposal or service order. No fee or package term is established by this draft. If applicable, VAT and payment terms must be specified in that written agreement.
11
Intellectual property
Rights in the application, service materials and customer-provided information must be addressed in the final customer agreement. Except for rights expressly granted in that agreement, no ownership or licence is created by this draft.
12
Confidentiality
Each party should protect information that the other party identifies as confidential and use it only for the agreed service purpose, subject to the final written agreement and applicable law. Detailed confidentiality obligations remain for legal review.
13
Availability and support
Availability, maintenance, support hours, response times, backups, recovery objectives and service levels are not guaranteed by this draft. Any commitments must be stated in the applicable written agreement.
14
Suspension and termination
The final agreement must describe suspension and termination rights, notice, fees due, data export, retention and deletion at the end of service. Those rights and procedures are not established by this draft.
15
Disclaimers and liability
The service is an operational aid. Customers must independently verify critical dates, source information and required actions. The final terms must define appropriate warranties, exclusions, liability limits and remedies after legal review; this draft does not set those terms.
16
Governing law and disputes
The governing law, dispute-resolution process and jurisdiction must be confirmed in the final written agreement following legal review. No specific dispute process is created by this draft.
17
Changes to the service or terms
The service may evolve. The final agreement must explain how changes to service features, terms and fees are communicated and when they take effect. This draft is not notice of a change to an existing customer agreement.
