Terms and Conditions | RAC Road Ready

1.0 Acceptance of terms

Welcome to RAC’s rac.com.au/roadready website (the "Website"). Parts of this Website are accessible to the public, other parts of this Website are provided to those persons who have registered a Member Account and are members of RAC’s Child & Youth membership category (“Members”). The Website is provided to encourage and educate Users on road safety.

The terms "we", “us”, “our” and “RAC” refer to the Royal Automobile Club of W.A. (Incorporated), RACWA Holdings Pty Ltd (ACN 008 985 877) and its subsidiaries (RAC Group).

The term "you" refers to

a User where that User is 18 years or older; or
the parent/guardian of the User, where the User is younger than 18,

as applicable.

The term "Member Account" means an account created on the Website for a Member.

The term ‘User’ refers to any person using the Website and includes a Member.

Please read these terms and conditions ("Agreement") carefully, and if you are under the age of 18 years, make sure that your parent/legal guardian reads and agrees with this Agreement on your behalf. You agree to be bound by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement by using this Website and registering a Member Account.

We reserve the right at any time, at our sole discretion, to change or otherwise modify the Agreement in accordance with these terms and conditions and the User’s continued access or use of this Website indicates your acceptance of the updated or modified Agreement. You should revisit the Agreement on a regular basis as revised versions will be binding on you. If you do not accept all of the terms and conditions contained in this Agreement or a modified version of the Agreement, the User is not authorised to use and must immediately cease to use this Website and, if applicable, must cancel their Member Account.

2.0 Use of Website/Account

A User may browse the Website and view content without creating a Member Account, but as a condition to the User using certain aspects of the Website, you must register and login into a Member Account. If you do register a Member Account, you consent on your behalf or on the behalf of a User where authorised, to become a Member of the RAC when you submit the information required to register a Member’s Account. You warrant and agree that you will provide RAC with accurate and complete information (including, but not limited to a Member name ("Member Name"), date of birth, gender, school name, guardian name, postal address, e-mail address, contact phone number and a password that the Member will use to access the Website) and to keep the Member Account information accurate and up-to-date at all times. Failure to do so shall constitute a breach of this Agreement, which may result in immediate de-activation of the Member Account. You acknowledge and agree that any details needed to register a Member Account may be provided to third parties. RAC will use reasonable efforts to protect the security of all User details, as well as those details of the User’s parent/guardian where applicable, in accordance with clause 3 of this Agreement but disclaims any responsibility for the disclosure of any personal information as a result of unauthorised access.

You shall not:

create any Member Account for anyone other than yourself or a User for which you are authorised;
use a Member Name that is the name of another person with the intent to impersonate that person;
use a Member Name or Member Account that is subject to any rights of a person other than you without appropriate authorisation.

RAC reserves the right to refuse registration of, de-activate or terminate a Member Account in its sole discretion. You are solely responsible and liable for activity that occurs on your Member Account and shall be responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your password. You shall never use another Member’s Account without such other Member’s prior express permission. You must not disclose your password to any person or allow any other person to use or access your Member Account or your Member Name or password.

You represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract.

3.0 Security of Your Account

It is important that you remember your login details and password. You should keep your login details and password in a safe place offline.

We will use your login and password to identify you when you return to our Website. If you forget your login or password, you will not be able to access your Member Account until you reset your password.

We have put physical, electronic and managerial procedures into place in order to ensure the safety and security of your information and to prevent unauthorised access. Although we use reasonable efforts to protect the security of your details, transmissions made on or through the Internet, emails sent via the Internet and personal information stored on our servers or the servers of third parties are vulnerable to attack and cannot be guaranteed to be secure. RAC disclaims any responsibility for the disclosure of any personal information as a result of unauthorised access by a third party.
