  • Immediate termination of your account and access rights
  • Civil proceedings for copyright infringement, breach of confidence, or breach of contract
  • Referral to law enforcement where criminal conduct is suspected

(b) Genuine Pre-Estimate of Loss: The parties acknowledge and agree that:

  • RYTZ has invested substantial resources in developing the Platform and Platform Content
  • Breach of Section 9.2 or 9.3 would cause loss to RYTZ that would be extremely difficult to quantify, including loss of competitive advantage, devaluation of proprietary data, and reputational harm
  • In the event of such breach, RYTZ may elect to claim either its actual proven damages, or liquidated damages as a genuine pre-estimate of loss

Tiered Liquidated Damages Schedule:

Individual User Breach:

  • $15,000 (AUD) for each discrete item of Platform Content copied, distributed, or misused
  • $60,000 (AUD) for any use of Platform Content to train AI models or machine learning systems

Commercial Entity or Competitor Breach:

  • $25,000 (AUD) for each discrete item of Platform Content copied, distributed, or misused
  • $100,000 (AUD) for any use of Platform Content to train AI models or machine learning systems

Plus any costs of investigation, remediation, and enforcement (including legal costs on an indemnity basis).

(c) For the purposes of this clause, a "Commercial Entity or Competitor" means any person or organisation that: (i) operates a business in the legal technology, legal information, or family law services sector; (ii) uses the Platform Content for any commercial purpose beyond personal legal matters; or (iii) provides the Platform Content to third parties for any commercial benefit.

(d) You acknowledge that: (i) the liquidated damages amounts reflect a genuine pre-estimate of RYTZ's minimum loss from breach, calculated by reference to development costs exceeding $300,000, data acquisition expenses, engineering investment, and loss of competitive advantage, consistent with Australian law principles established in Ringrow Pty Ltd v BP Australia Pty Ltd [2005] HCA 71 and Paciocco v Australia and New Zealand Banking Group Ltd [2016] HCA 28; (ii) these amounts are not intended as a penalty but as reasonable compensation for harm that would be difficult to prove; (iii) the tiered structure reflects the greater harm caused by commercial exploitation versus individual misuse; and (iv) you have had the opportunity to review these terms before accepting.

9.6 Equitable Relief

(a) You acknowledge that breach of Section 9 would cause irreparable harm to RYTZ for which damages alone would be an inadequate remedy.

(b) RYTZ may seek interlocutory and final injunctive relief to restrain actual or threatened breach, without prejudice to any other remedies available at law or in equity.

(c) If RYTZ commences proceedings to enforce this Section 9 and is substantially successful, you agree to pay RYTZ's costs of such proceedings on an indemnity basis.

9.7 Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless RYTZ, its officers, employees, and agents from and against all claims, losses, damages, costs, and expenses (including legal costs on an indemnity basis) arising from or in connection with:
