Terms of Service, End User Licence Agreement & Disclaimer

Single combined legal document. Version 1.0.0. General information, not legal advice. Publisher: Bayside Technology Group Pty Ltd (ACN 666 729 166), with Tech In A Sec. BYD Toolbox is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or supported by BYD.

1. Agreement to terms

By installing or using BYD Toolbox ("the app") you agree to this EULA, these Terms of Service, and the disclaimer below. If you do not agree, do not install or use it.

2. Licence

The app is licensed, not sold, under a proprietary, all-rights-reserved licence. You get a personal, non-transferable right to run the public release on a head unit you own or operate. You may not copy, distribute, sell, reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or reuse any part of the app, its interfaces, protocols or behaviour in another product, except to the minimum extent the law does not allow that to be excluded (for example s47D Copyright Act interoperability). BTG retains all intellectual property.

3. Acceptable use

Use the app lawfully and only where permitted (for example while stationary for set-up). You are responsible for compliance with road rules and vehicle regulations. The public app is read-only toward the vehicle and does not write to ECU, firmware or CAN.

4. Warranty position (vehicle)

Installing or modifying head-unit software is at your own risk. If a modification causes damage to a component, BYD may decline a warranty claim for that component. This is narrower than "voids the warranty": modifying does not automatically void the whole warranty; BYD can refuse cover only for damage actually caused by the modification; and your Australian Consumer Law (ACL) rights cannot be excluded and may outlast the manufacturer warranty.

5. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, BTG and Tech In A Sec exclude all liability for loss or damage arising from use of the app. Nothing here excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee or right under the ACL or Privacy Act that cannot lawfully be excluded. Where liability can be limited but not excluded, it is limited to re-supplying the software or the cost of re-supply.

6. Data & privacy

The app collects pseudonymous product analytics tied to a random install id, never your name, account or vehicle location. Optional model-data sharing is off by default and opt-in. You can withdraw consent any time. Full detail is in the Privacy Policy. Data is handled under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth). BTG does not sell personal data.

The marketing pages and the install page measure visits with Google Analytics 4 and Microsoft Clarity, through Google Tag Manager, and only after you allow analytics. Advertising storage stays off. Firebase is not used for this. The page requests the tag container file even before you choose. The Privacy Policy names each processor.

7. Updates

The app may check for and offer updates from BTG's distribution feed. Dev builds use a separate channel and are not for public distribution.

8. Termination

This agreement and your licence end automatically on breach; stop using and delete all copies.

9. Governing law

Victoria, Australia.
