Disclaimer

This Disclaimer forms part of the Terms of Service between you and Cornerstone SWMS (ABN 67 549 365 260). It should be read together with the Terms of Service, the Licence Agreement, and the Privacy Policy, each of which is incorporated by reference.

General Disclaimer

The information and documents provided by Cornerstone SWMS are for general informational purposes only. While we endeavour to keep information accurate and up to date, we make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, or suitability of the information contained in our documents.

Templates Only — Not Guaranteed Compliant

All documents provided on this platform are templates and starting points only. They must be reviewed, adapted, and approved by the Person Conducting a Business or Undertaking (PCBU) — or facilitated by a designated WHS Manager, Site Supervisor, or Principal Contractor — before use at any specific worksite.

Cornerstone SWMS does not guarantee that any document will achieve compliance with the Work Health and Safety Act 2011 (Cth), state or territory WHS legislation, or any code of practice. Compliance depends on site-specific conditions, the nature of the work being performed, and the correct application of the document by qualified personnel.

Work health and safety legislation differs between states and territories. In Victoria and Western Australia, the equivalent occupational health and safety legislation applies rather than the Work Health and Safety Act. You are responsible for confirming that a document is appropriate for the specific jurisdiction in which the work is being carried out, and for ensuring that any legislative references embedded in a generated document remain current and applicable.

No Legal or Professional Advice

The documents and content on this platform do not constitute legal, safety, or professional advice. You should consult a qualified WHS professional or legal adviser before relying on any document in a workplace setting. Nothing on this platform creates a professional or advisory relationship between you and Cornerstone SWMS.

Legislative Changes

Workplace health and safety legislation, codes of practice, and industry standards change over time. Documents purchased from Cornerstone SWMS reflect the legislative references current at the time of generation. It is your responsibility to verify that the legislative references in your purchased documents remain current and applicable to your jurisdiction and circumstances.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by Australian law, Cornerstone SWMS accepts no liability for any loss, damage, injury, or legal consequence arising from the use of documents purchased from this platform without appropriate review, adaptation, and customisation for the specific worksite and circumstances in which they are applied.

Nothing in this Disclaimer excludes, restricts, or modifies any guarantee, right, or remedy you have under the Australian Consumer Law, or any other law, that can't lawfully be excluded, restricted, or modified. Where a Document or service fails to meet a consumer guarantee under the Australian Consumer Law, you may be entitled to a repair, replacement, or refund depending on the nature of the failure. Where permitted by law, our liability is limited, at our option, to resupplying the document or refunding the purchase price.

External Links

This platform may contain references or links to external websites or resources. We have no control over the nature, content, and availability of those sites and accept no responsibility for their content or any reliance placed upon them.

Governing Law

This Disclaimer is governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia. Subject to any right you may have under the Australian Consumer Law to bring proceedings elsewhere, each party submits to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Queensland.

If you have any questions about this disclaimer, please contact us.
