The Customer acknowledges that the Products rely on data and information from third party suppliers and from time to time, certain data and information may not be available to the Products for any reason (for example, if there is a technical failure of the servers utilised by a third party data provider, scheduled downtime, maintenance issues or investigations of breaches of security). The Customer will have no claim of any kind against TaleFin or its related entities for the failure of any Products, data or information to be available at any particular time or at all whether temporarily or permanently. TaleFin makes no claim as to the completeness or accuracy of the Data accessed using the Database and such Data may be amended, corrected or removed at any time based on the instructions of third parties.

13. For a Customer introduced by a Channel, first level telephone support will be available from the Channel to assist generally with Product use between 9am and 5pm AEDST on weekdays, excluding public holidays and any weekdays when the Channel or TaleFin’s offices are closed during the Christmas and New Year period each year.

The Customer warrants that any use by TaleFin or others involved in the provision of services for the Products does not violate the rights of any third party, whether by way of privacy, intellectual property or otherwise.
18. TaleFin provides the Credit Score as a modelled representation of consumer historical behaviours and outcomes to help the Customer to determine creditworthiness. TaleFin does not make any representation as to the future behaviour of any individual. The Customer acknowledges that any credit score rating is an indicative score only and is calculated based on available past performance insights from Data that is available to TaleFin. It is not binding and is not a promise or guarantee of creditworthiness or any future performance or financial standing of any individual.
