  6. While Foremind requires counselling practitioners be a member of one of the following professional bodies: a. Australian Counselling Association (ACA); b. Psychotherapy and Counselling Federation of Australia (PACFA); or c.

  6. The User acknowledges that where the Software or website of Foremind contains links to other sites (including banner advertisements and sponsored links) and resources provided by third parties, these links are provided for the User's information only. Such links should not be interpreted as approval by Foremind of those linked websites or information the User may obtain from them. Foremind has no control over the contents of those sites or resources, and the User accesses third party websites entirely at their own risk and subject to the terms and conditions of use for those websites.

  4. User expressly understands and agrees that Foremind and its representatives shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive or exemplary damages, including but not limited to damages for loss of profits, goodwill, lost revenues or business opportunities, loss of use, data or other intangible losses, in contract, tort, strict liability, negligence, general civil liability or any other cause of action under legal or equitable theory, relating to the Platform or Services, any information on or downloaded from the Platform or Services, activities arising from use of the Services (including Counselling Services, and other professional services), or any third-party materials made available via the Platform or Services.

21. Termination
  1. In addition to Foremind's suspension rights, Foremind may terminate this EULA in the event of a breach of any of the provisions of this EULA by the User, or without the need to specify a cause immediately. Foremind may communicate termination by disabling the Registered User's Login account which may occur as a result of a determination made by Foremind in its discretion or in accordance with an applicable Client Agreement.

23. Amendments
  1. Foremind may vary this EULA from time to time. If so, Foremind will publish the updated EULA on the Platform and may also notify the User by other means, such as via email or in-Platform notice. The updated EULA will take effect immediately upon publication unless otherwise stated.
  2. Where a variation constitutes a material change to the User's rights or obligations under these EULA, Foremind will provide the User with at least 30 days' prior written notice. If the User does not agree to the amended terms, it must notify Foremind in writing and cease using the Platform and Services before the effective date of the change. Continued use of the Platform or Services following the effective date will constitute acceptance of the amended EULA.
  3. For changes that do not materially alter the relationship between the User and Foremind, no prior notice is required beyond publication of the revised EULA on the Platform in accordance with clause 23.1.
24. General
  1. No breach of any provision of this EULA shall be waived except with the express written consent of the party not in breach.
  2. If any provision of this EULA is determined by any court or other competent authority to be unlawful and/or unenforceable, the other provisions of this EULA will continue in effect. If any unlawful and/or unenforceable provision would be lawful or enforceable if part of it were deleted, that part will be deemed to be deleted, and the rest of the provision will continue in effect (unless that would contradict the clear intention of the parties, in which case the entirety of the relevant provision will be deemed to be deleted).
  3. The User hereby agrees that Foremind may assign Foremind's contractual rights and obligations under this EULA to its Related Bodies Corporate, or to any successor to all or a substantial part of the business of Foremind from time to time, or to any third party, providing that, if the User is a consumer, such action does not serve to reduce the guarantees benefiting the User under this EULA. Save to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law, the User must not without the prior written consent of Foremind assign, transfer or otherwise deal with any of the User's contractual rights or obligations under this EULA.
  4. Foremind may subcontract the performance of any of its obligations under this EULA.

  5. Foremind may also engage independent third-party counselling professionals to deliver the Counselling Services. The User acknowledges that Counselling Services are facilitated by Foremind but delivered by such independent providers.
  6. This EULA is made for the benefit of the parties, and is not intended to benefit any third party or be enforceable by any third party. The rights of the parties to terminate, rescind, or agree any amendment, waiver, variation or settlement under or relating to this EULA are not subject to the consent of any third party.
  7. The EULA shall constitute the entire agreement between the parties in relation to the subject matter of this EULA, and shall supersede all previous agreements, arrangements and understandings between the parties in respect of that subject matter.

Yes, we have culturally competent counsellors available, including those able to work with first nation and CALD employees.

Onshore on secure AWS Servers in Sydney Australia. All data is encrypted in transit and at rest and our entire team is located in Australia.

Employees can access our platform on any device (mobile, laptop, desktop, etc.) as long you have the website link - no need to download any app on devices. You wouldn’t need to enrol any of your staff individually.- When we do our onboarding, we ask for the first name, last name and email of all your employees, and send out an email invite to all them which will allow them to create their own individual account to access the platform. For new staff we can also invite them or provide you with a unique link to embed in your onboarding process, whichever is more convenient for you. We also kick things off with a launch webinar or video to make sure everyone is aware of Foremind and how to use it. We’ll also provide you with any collateral such as posters, QR codes, brochures etc. to help drive awareness and encourage people to create an account in the platform.

The support line is answered by our reception service 24/7. It is for urgent platform or session-related issues only (e.g. *“My counsellor didn’t show”*) or helping staff create an account.
