Terms of service

Last updated: 2 October 2026

These Terms & Conditions ("Terms") govern your access to and use of hcrmedia.net and HCR Media's memberships, subscriptions, courses, job listings, talent services, business submission tools, content and related services (together, the "Services"). By creating an account, submitting information, purchasing a product or using the Services, you agree to these Terms and the policies referenced in them.

1. Eligibility and accounts

You must be legally capable of entering a contract and provide accurate, current information. You are responsible for keeping your login details secure and for activity under your account. Accounts and member access are personal and must not be shared, resold or transferred without our written permission.

2. What HCR provides

HCR provides access to selected content, learning materials, job or project information, talent and business submission pathways, and other features described for the package purchased. Features, availability and the frequency or volume of opportunities may change over time.

3. No guarantee of jobs, money or results

HCR does not guarantee any job, project, client, income, profit, selection, application response, interview, acceptance, business outcome or other result. Purchasing a package only provides the access and features expressly described at the time of purchase.

Results are subjective and depend on factors outside HCR's control, including your skills, experience, portfolio, conduct, availability, location, pricing, competition, market conditions, employer decisions and the accuracy and timing of third-party listings. Examples, testimonials, estimates or past outcomes are illustrative only and are not promises of future performance.

You are responsible for deciding whether an opportunity, course, package or business relationship is suitable for you and for carrying out your own checks.

4. Job listings, applications and third parties

Businesses and other third parties are responsible for the accuracy, legality and completeness of listings and for their hiring, payment, contracting and workplace practices. HCR may review, moderate, reject or remove submissions but does not guarantee that every listing, business, applicant or opportunity has been independently verified.

Unless HCR expressly states otherwise, HCR is not the employer, recruiter, agent, representative or contracting party for a listed opportunity. Any engagement is between the relevant users or third parties. You should verify identity, scope, payment, rights, safety, tax and contractual terms before accepting work or sharing sensitive information.

5. Third-party brands and logos

Names, trade marks and logos shown on the Services may be used for identification, editorial, portfolio, example or opportunity-description purposes. Unless expressly stated in writing, the relevant brand or rights holder is not associated with, affiliated with, partnered with, sponsoring or endorsing HCR. All third-party marks remain the property of their respective owners.

6. Access tiers

Your account receives only the content and features included in the purchased tier. We may use account status, order data, tags or subscription information to control access. Attempting to bypass access controls, share restricted content or use another person's access may lead to suspension or termination without a refund, subject to applicable law.

7. Fees, billing and cancellation

Prices are shown in the currency displayed at checkout and may include or exclude taxes as stated. Recurring packages continue until cancelled and are billed at the frequency shown at checkout. You authorise the applicable payment provider to collect those charges.

You may cancel future renewals using the available account or subscription controls or by contacting us. Cancellation does not normally refund the current billing period. Refunds are governed by our Refund Policy and mandatory consumer law.

8. Acceptable use

You must not use the Services unlawfully, fraudulently or to mislead, harass or exploit another person; scrape, copy, redistribute, publish or resell member-only content or listings; submit false, discriminatory, infringing, unsafe or deceptive listings or applications; upload malware or interfere with security; impersonate another person; or use HCR content, data or branding to create a competing database or service without permission.

9. User submissions

You retain ownership of content you submit. You grant HCR a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, reproduce, format, display, moderate and share that content only as reasonably needed to operate, promote and improve the Services and connect relevant users. You confirm that you have the rights and permissions needed to submit the content and that it is accurate and lawful.

10. HCR intellectual property

The Services, HCR branding, site design, original content, course materials and member resources are owned by or licensed to HCR and protected by law. Except for personal use of access you have purchased, no rights are transferred to you.

11. Service changes and availability

We may add, change, pause or discontinue features, listings or content and may perform maintenance. We do not guarantee uninterrupted, error-free or permanent availability. If a change materially affects a paid service, any remedy will be assessed under the service description, Refund Policy and applicable law.

12. No professional advice

Information provided through HCR is general information only and is not legal, financial, tax, employment, recruitment or other professional advice. Obtain independent advice for your circumstances.

13. Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, HCR is not liable for indirect, consequential, special or punitive loss; loss of profit, revenue, opportunity, data or reputation; or conduct, content, decisions or failures of third parties. Where liability can lawfully be limited, HCR's aggregate liability arising from a paid Service is limited to the amount you paid HCR for that Service in the six months before the event giving rise to the claim.

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any right, guarantee or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded, including under the Australian Consumer Law. Any limitation applies only to the extent permitted by law.

14. Suspension and termination

We may suspend or terminate access where we reasonably believe you have breached these Terms, created risk, engaged in fraud or abuse, failed to pay, or used the Services unlawfully. Terms intended to continue after termination, including intellectual property, disclaimers and liability terms, remain in effect.

15. Complaints and disputes

Contact hiroki@hcrmedia.net first and provide enough detail for us to investigate. The parties agree to attempt in good faith to resolve a dispute before commencing formal proceedings where practical. Nothing in these Terms prevents either party from making a lawful complaint to a regulator, payment provider, tribunal or court.

16. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of Western Australia and the Commonwealth of Australia. Subject to any non-excludable rights, the courts and tribunals of Western Australia have jurisdiction.

17. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms when our Services, business practices or legal obligations change. The updated Terms will be posted with a revised date. Material changes will apply prospectively where required by law.
