These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the Hublle platform, website (hublle.co), web application (hublle.app), and any related services, APIs, or consulting offerings (collectively, the "Services") provided by Hublle Limited ("Hublle", "we", "us", or "our"), a company incorporated in New Zealand.
By creating an account, accessing the platform, or using any of our Services, you ("User", "you") agree to be bound by these Terms. If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, and "you" refers to that entity.
If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not use our Services.
These Terms were last updated on 31 May 2026.

We may also terminate or suspend access with 30 days' notice for any other reason.
Effect of termination Upon termination, your right to access the Services ceases. We will retain your Customer Data for up to 30 days, during which you may export it. After this period, your data will be permanently deleted unless retention is required by law.
Sections relating to intellectual property, confidentiality, disclaimers, liability, and governing law survive termination.
15. Governing Law and Disputes
Governing law These Terms are governed by the laws of New Zealand. Both parties submit to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the New Zealand courts.
Dispute resolution Before initiating formal proceedings, both parties agree to attempt to resolve any dispute in good faith through direct negotiation. If a dispute cannot be resolved within 30 days of written notice, either party may escalate to formal dispute resolution.
Mediation Either party may refer an unresolved dispute to mediation administered by the Arbitrators' and Mediators' Institute of New Zealand (AMINZ) before commencing court proceedings.
For international customers If you are located in the EU or UK, you may also have rights under local laws. These Terms do not limit any rights you may have under mandatory local consumer protection laws.
16. General Provisions
Entire agreement These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, Cookie Policy, and any applicable SOW or Order Form, constitute the entire agreement between you and Hublle relating to the Services.
Amendments We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by email or prominent notice on the platform at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use after that date constitutes acceptance.
Severability If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.
Waiver Failure by Hublle to enforce any provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of our right to enforce it in future.
