Terms of Service

Version 2026-04-02 | Effective: 2 April 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the comp.page platform ("Platform"), operated by NSJS Group Pty Ltd (ABN 20 620 383 726) ("we", "us", "our"). By creating an account or otherwise accessing the Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy.


1. Nature of the Platform

1.1 Platform Operator and Competitions

NSJS Group Pty Ltd is the Platform operator. It provides and maintains the software, hosts data, manages user accounts and enforces these Terms.

Each competition managed through the Platform is independently operated by its own appointed personnel — including convenors, chief officials, safeguarding officers and other authorised roles. Each competition appoints, elects or engages its own Competition Personnel (as defined in Section 6) and is solely responsible for its own decisions regarding official selection, assignment, scheduling, performance assessment, restrictions, bans, conduct standards and compensation. NSJS Group Pty Ltd has no role in the governance, management or decision-making of any competition.

Where the Platform automates an action (such as removing an official from scheduled assignments following a ban), that automation executes a decision made by Competition Personnel, not a decision made by NSJS Group Pty Ltd.

Directors, officers or related parties of NSJS Group Pty Ltd may separately be appointed by a competition to serve as Competition Personnel. Where they do so, they act on behalf of that competition — not on behalf of NSJS Group Pty Ltd.

1.2 No Employment or Agency Relationship

Use of the Platform does not create any employment, contractor, agency or fiduciary relationship between you and NSJS Group Pty Ltd. Any relationship you hold as an official is with the relevant competition organiser.

1.3 Safeguarding Verification

The Platform stores and displays safeguarding check data (such as Working With Children Check (WWCC) numbers, Blue Card details or equivalent clearances) as reported by users. The Platform does not independently verify safeguarding clearances with any government authority and is not a substitute for official verification systems (e.g. the NSW Office of the Children's Guardian Employer Online Verification system). The legal obligation to verify that individuals engaged in child-related work hold valid clearances rests with the employer or competition organiser and cannot be discharged by reference to data stored on this Platform.


2. Eligibility and Registration

2.1 Eligible Users

The Platform is intended for use by:

  • Officials involved in competitions
  • Competition convenors, chief officials and administrators authorised by a competition organiser
  • Safeguarding officers responsible for recording safeguarding check information (e.g. Working With Children Checks)

You must be at least 16 years of age to create an account. If you are under 18, a parent or guardian must consent to these Terms on your behalf and is jointly responsible for your compliance with these Terms.

2.2 Registration Obligations

  • You must provide accurate and complete information.
  • You must read and accept these Terms and our Privacy Policy before creating an account. Your acceptance is recorded with a timestamp and version.
  • You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.
  • You must notify us immediately upon becoming aware of any unauthorised access to or use of your account.
  • We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that contain inaccurate information or that are in breach of these Terms.

2.3 Accuracy of Information

You are solely responsible for the accuracy of all information you provide through the Platform, including safeguarding check details. Compliance with all applicable legislation, including child protection and safeguarding legislation in your jurisdiction, is your responsibility and the responsibility of the relevant competition organiser.


3. Consent to Data Collection

3.1 General Consent

By creating an account, you consent to the collection, storage, use and disclosure of your personal information as described in our Privacy Policy, including:

  • Storage of your name, email, profile and official information on our servers.
  • Display of your profile to authorised users in accordance with the Platform's role-based access controls.
  • Use of your availability and preference data for competition administration.
  • Retention of audit logs recording access to your data.

3.2 Safeguarding Data

By entering safeguarding check data (e.g. WWCC number, Blue Card number or equivalent) into the Platform, you additionally consent to:

  • Storage of your safeguarding check number, expiry date, verification status and uploaded documents for the purposes described in Section 8 of our Privacy Policy.
  • Disclosure of your safeguarding check number and status to authorised personnel (competition convenors, chief officials, safeguarding officers and administrators) for the purpose of competition administration.
  • Audit logging of all access to your safeguarding data.
  • Retention of safeguarding verification records (the fact that a check was verified, by whom, when and the outcome) for up to seven (7) years following account deletion, to support competition organisers' statutory record-keeping obligations. The check number itself and any uploaded documents are deleted within 30 days of account deletion.

You may withdraw consent for safeguarding data storage at any time by removing the data from your profile or by contacting support@comp.page. Withdrawal of consent may affect your eligibility to officiate at competitions requiring a valid safeguarding check.

3.3 Competition Communications

By joining a competition on the Platform (whether through invitation, assignment, expression of interest or any other means), you consent to receive emails and notifications from that competition and its organisation about anything related to that competition, including but not limited to round assignments, scheduling, reminders, check-in requests, results, feedback, venue information, administrative updates, and invitations to future editions of that competition. These are service communications directly related to your participation and do not require separate opt-in. If your participation in a competition ends — whether by your request, removal by Competition Personnel, or completion of the competition — these communications will cease. To request removal from a competition, contact the competition convenor or email support@comp.page.

3.4 Opportunity Notifications

A core function of the Platform is connecting competitions with officials. Where you have opted in to receive opportunity notifications (via the registration form or your account settings), the Platform may also send you emails when other competitions within your organisation are seeking officials whose profile, experience or availability may be relevant. These notifications are a Platform service, not third-party marketing — your contact details are never shared with competition organisers outside the Platform.

You may opt out of opportunity notifications at any time via your account settings. Opting out does not affect your ability to use the Platform, to be assigned to competitions through direct invitation, or to receive communications from competitions you have already joined.


4. Acceptable Use

4.1 Prohibited Conduct

You must not:

  • Provide false or misleading information, including in relation to your identity or safeguarding check status
  • Access data or accounts belonging to other users without authorisation
  • Circumvent or attempt to circumvent security measures
  • Use the Platform to harass, defame or discriminate against any person
  • Use automated means to scrape, crawl or extract data from the Platform
  • Introduce malicious code or software

4.2 Role-Based Access

You agree to:

  • Access only those features and data appropriate to your assigned role
  • Not attempt to escalate privileges or access restricted areas
  • Report security vulnerabilities or anomalies to us without delay

5. Intellectual Property

  • The Platform, including its design, source code and content, is the property of or is licensed to NSJS Group Pty Ltd. All rights are reserved.
  • You retain ownership of content you upload. By uploading content, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store and process that content solely for the purpose of operating the Platform.

6. Competitions, Assignments and Conduct

In these Terms, "Competition Personnel" means competition convenors, chief officials, organisation administrators and any other person authorised by a competition organiser to make decisions or perform duties through the Platform, regardless of whether that person is an adult or a minor, and regardless of whether they are acting in a paid, contracted or volunteer capacity.

By using the Platform, you acknowledge and agree that:

  • All competition decisions — including official selection, assignment, scheduling, performance assessment, conduct standards, compensation, restrictions and bans — are made by Competition Personnel, not by the Platform operator.
  • Maintaining an account does not entitle you to any assignment, appointment, engagement or compensation. Indicating availability is an expression of interest only. No minimum number of assignments or level of compensation is guaranteed by the Platform operator, any competition organiser or any Competition Personnel.
  • You may be restricted, blacklisted or banned from specific institutions, competitions or an entire organisation at any time, with or without prior notice, and with or without reasons being provided to you. These actions are taken by Competition Personnel at their sole discretion, subject to applicable anti-discrimination legislation.
  • A restriction, blacklist or ban may result in your immediate removal from scheduled assignments, including assignments already confirmed, notified or partially completed. You have no right to complete an assignment that has been withdrawn.
  • Restrictions, blacklists, bans, non-selection, unfavourable feedback and any other competition decision may have financial consequences for you, including but not limited to loss of expected income, loss of future assignments, loss of opportunity, loss of reputation and consequential economic harm. You expressly accept these risks as inherent in participating in a managed competition system and waive any claim for such losses to the maximum extent permitted by law.
  • Competition Personnel may record performance observations, feedback, ratings and reviews about your officiating. This information may be visible to other Competition Personnel within the organisation and across competitions, and may influence future assignment decisions. We do not verify, endorse or adopt any feedback or rating recorded on the Platform.
  • Release of claims: To the maximum extent permitted by law, you release and forever discharge NSJS Group Pty Ltd, its directors, officers, employees, agents and contractors, and all Competition Personnel (in both their official and personal capacities), from any and all claims, demands, actions, causes of action, suits, damages, losses, costs and liabilities of any kind — whether existing at the date of your acceptance of these Terms or arising in the future, and whether in contract, tort (including negligence), equity, under statute or otherwise — arising from or in connection with any restriction, blacklist, ban, unfavourable feedback, performance assessment, non-selection, removal from assignment, reduction in assignments, change in compensation or any other competition decision made through the Platform.
  • Covenant not to sue: You agree not to commence, maintain, or participate in any claim, action, proceeding or complaint against NSJS Group Pty Ltd or any Competition Personnel in any court, tribunal, commission or other body in respect of any matter released under the preceding paragraph. This covenant does not prevent you from: (a) bringing a claim based solely on unlawful discrimination under the Anti-Discrimination Act 1977 (NSW), the Sex Discrimination Act 1984 (Cth), the Racial Discrimination Act 1975 (Cth), the Disability Discrimination Act 1992 (Cth), or the Age Discrimination Act 2004 (Cth); (b) lodging a complaint with the Office of the Australian Information Commissioner (OAIC) under the Privacy Act 1988 (Cth); or (c) exercising any right or remedy that cannot be excluded by law, including under the Australian Consumer Law (Section 7.4).
  • Assumption of risk: You acknowledge that participation in competitions may involve inherent risks including but not limited to travel, physical activity, exposure to venues and interaction with participants, students and members of the public. You assume all such risks to the maximum extent permitted by law. This assumption of risk applies whether you are attending as a paid, contracted or volunteer official.
  • Disputes regarding assignments, restrictions, bans, feedback, conduct or compensation are between you and the relevant competition organiser and are not the responsibility of the Platform operator.
  • If you believe content recorded about you on the Platform is factually inaccurate or unlawful, you may submit a complaint to support@comp.page. We will respond within thirty (30) calendar days.

7. Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability

7.1 No Warranty

The Platform is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We do not warrant that the Platform will be uninterrupted, error-free or free from defects. We may perform maintenance that temporarily affects availability.

7.2 Exclusion of Liability for Competition Matters

We are not liable for:

  • Decisions made by competition organisers regarding official selection, assignment, restriction, blacklisting, banning or performance assessment
  • The conduct of any user at or in connection with competitions
  • Loss, injury or damage arising from participation in competitions, whether or not facilitated through the Platform
  • The accuracy of information entered by other users
  • The outcome of any safeguarding verification process, including any reliance by competition organisers on data stored on the Platform
  • Financial loss, loss of expected income, loss of opportunity or economic harm arising from a restriction, blacklist, ban, unfavourable review, non-selection, removal from assignment, or any other action taken by a competition organiser, organisation administrator or platform administrator through or in connection with the Platform
  • Performance feedback, reviews or ratings recorded by other users, whether or not you consider them accurate, fair or justified

7.3 Limitation

To the maximum extent permitted by law, no Protected Party (as defined in Section 9) is liable for any direct, indirect, consequential, special, incidental or punitive loss or damage arising from or in connection with your use of, or inability to use, the Platform, including but not limited to loss of income, loss of expected income, loss of opportunity, loss of data, loss of reputation, economic loss, or loss arising from reliance on information displayed on the Platform or from any decision made by Competition Personnel.

Where liability cannot be excluded by law, the aggregate liability of all Protected Parties combined to you for all claims arising out of or in connection with your use of the Platform is limited to AUD $100 or the total fees paid by you to NSJS Group Pty Ltd in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim, whichever is greater.

7.4 Australian Consumer Law

Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy conferred by the Australian Consumer Law (Schedule 2 of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth)) or any other applicable law that cannot be excluded, restricted or modified by agreement.

To the extent that we supply services not ordinarily acquired for personal, domestic or household use, our liability for failure to comply with a consumer guarantee is limited, to the extent permitted by law, to the re-supply of the services or payment of the cost of having the services re-supplied.


8. Competition Organiser Obligations

This Section applies to users who create, administer or manage a competition or organisation through the Platform, including competition convenors and organisation administrators ("Organiser Users").

By using the Platform in an organiser capacity, Organiser Users acknowledge and agree that:

  • Each competition or organisation managed through the Platform is an independent entity (whether an incorporated association, unincorporated body, company or other structure) that is solely responsible for its own governance, decisions, policies, conduct and legal compliance.
  • NSJS Group Pty Ltd is not responsible for any decision made by Competition Personnel, including decisions regarding official selection, assignment, restriction, banning, performance assessment, compensation or any other competition matter.
  • The Organiser User is responsible for ensuring that all Competition Personnel appointed by their competition or organisation comply with applicable law, including anti-discrimination legislation, work health and safety legislation, child protection legislation and privacy legislation.
  • The Organiser User is responsible for all disputes between their competition or organisation and any official, including disputes arising from restrictions, bans, performance assessments, compensation, non-selection or any other competition decision. These disputes are not the responsibility of NSJS Group Pty Ltd and must not be directed to NSJS Group Pty Ltd.

8.1 Competition Organiser Indemnity

To the maximum extent permitted by law, each Organiser User agrees, on behalf of themselves and the competition or organisation they administer, to indemnify, defend and hold harmless NSJS Group Pty Ltd, its directors, officers, employees, agents and contractors from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, suits, losses, costs, expenses, damages and liabilities of any kind (including legal fees on a full indemnity basis) arising from or in connection with:

  • Any decision made by Competition Personnel through the Platform, including restrictions, bans, performance assessments, non-selection, compensation decisions or any other competition decision
  • Any claim, action, complaint or proceeding brought by any person (including officials, participants, institutions or third parties) against NSJS Group Pty Ltd in respect of a competition or organisation managed by the Organiser User
  • The Organiser User's breach of applicable law, including anti-discrimination, work health and safety, child protection or privacy legislation
  • The Organiser User's breach of these Terms or misuse of the Platform
  • Any failure by the Organiser User to independently verify safeguarding clearances as required by law (see Section 1.3)

This indemnity survives the termination of the Organiser User's account and applies regardless of whether the competition or organisation is an incorporated entity, unincorporated association, informal body or individual acting in an organiser capacity.


9. Official Indemnity

In these Terms, "Protected Parties" means NSJS Group Pty Ltd, its directors, officers, employees, agents and contractors, all Competition Personnel (as defined in Section 6), and where any Competition Personnel is a minor, that minor's parent or guardian — in each case whether acting in a paid, contracted or volunteer capacity, and whether engaged by NSJS Group Pty Ltd, a competition organiser, a school, an institution or otherwise.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold harmless all Protected Parties from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, losses, costs, expenses and damages (including reasonable legal fees on a solicitor-client basis) arising from or in connection with:

  • Your breach of these Terms
  • Your provision of false, misleading or inaccurate information through the Platform (including safeguarding data)
  • Your violation of any applicable law
  • Any third-party claim arising from your use of the Platform
  • Any claim, action, complaint or proceeding you bring or participate in against any Protected Party in relation to a decision regarding your assignment, restriction, blacklisting, banning, performance assessment, feedback, compensation or non-selection, where that claim is unsuccessful, withdrawn, or is not based on a proven breach of applicable anti-discrimination legislation

The protections in this Section and in Sections 6 and 7 extend to all Protected Parties in both their official and personal capacities. Competition Personnel acting in good faith within the scope of their authorised role are not personally liable to you for decisions made through the Platform, to the maximum extent permitted by law. Where Competition Personnel are volunteers, they are additionally protected by Part 9 of the Civil Liability Act 2002 (NSW) to the extent applicable.

Third-party beneficiaries: The release of claims, covenant not to sue, limitation of liability and indemnity protections in Sections 6, 7, 8 and 9 are expressly intended to confer a benefit on, and are enforceable by, all Protected Parties, including Competition Personnel who are not parties to these Terms.


10. Privacy

Your use of the Platform is governed by our Privacy Policy, which sets out how we collect, hold, use, disclose and protect your personal information including safeguarding data. By accepting these Terms, you acknowledge that you have read and understood our Privacy Policy.


11. Suspension and Termination

11.1 Suspension or Termination by Us

We may suspend or terminate your account, or restrict your access to any part of the Platform, at any time and in our sole discretion, including where:

  • You breach these Terms;
  • We receive a complaint, report or other information that, in our reasonable opinion, warrants investigation or action;
  • We consider it necessary for safeguarding, child safety or the welfare of participants;
  • We consider it necessary to protect the integrity, reputation or safe operation of the Platform or any competition administered through it;
  • An organisation administrator requests that your access to that organisation's competitions be revoked;
  • Required by law or a court order.

Where practicable, we will notify you of a suspension or termination and provide a general reason. However, we are not obliged to provide detailed reasons and may withhold reasons where disclosure could compromise a safeguarding investigation, the privacy of a complainant, or legal proceedings.

11.2 Effect of Suspension or Termination

  • Upon suspension, your account may remain active but your access to some or all Platform features will be restricted.
  • Upon termination, your access to the Platform ceases immediately. Any active assignments are cancelled.
  • We are not liable for any financial loss, loss of opportunity, loss of expected income or other loss arising from the suspension or termination of your account or the restriction of your access.
  • Sections 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 13, 14, 15 and 16 survive termination.

11.3 Voluntary Closure

11.4 No Right of Reinstatement

A user whose account has been terminated, or who has been banned from an organisation, has no automatic right to reinstatement. Reinstatement is at the sole discretion of the relevant organisation administrator or NSJS Group Pty Ltd, as applicable. Creating a new account to circumvent a ban or termination is a breach of these Terms.


12. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the version number and effective date at the top of this page and notify you through the Platform. You will be required to review and accept the updated Terms before continuing to use the Platform.

If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you may request account deletion by contacting us.


13. Dispute Resolution

13.1 Negotiation

Before commencing any formal dispute resolution process, the parties agree to attempt to resolve the dispute through good-faith negotiation for a period of not less than thirty (30) days from written notice of the dispute.

13.2 Arbitration

If a dispute is not resolved under Section 13.1, the dispute must be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by the Australian Centre for International Commercial Arbitration (ACICA) in accordance with the ACICA Arbitration Rules. The seat of arbitration is Sydney, New South Wales. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator appointed in accordance with the ACICA Rules. The language of the arbitration is English.

The arbitrator's decision is final and binding on both parties and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. Each party bears its own costs of the arbitration unless the arbitrator orders otherwise.

This arbitration clause does not prevent either party from seeking urgent injunctive or interlocutory relief from a court of competent jurisdiction where necessary to protect its rights.


14. Force Majeure

We are not liable for any failure or delay in performing our obligations under these Terms where such failure or delay results from circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including natural disaster, pandemic, government action, internet or telecommunications failure, power outage, or failure of third-party service providers.


15. General Provisions

  • Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, that provision is severed and the remaining provisions continue in full force and effect.
  • Entire agreement: These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and NSJS Group Pty Ltd regarding your use of the Platform and supersede all prior agreements and representations.
  • Assignment: We may assign or transfer our rights and obligations under these Terms to a successor entity without your consent, provided the successor agrees to be bound by these Terms. You may not assign your rights or obligations without our prior written consent.
  • Waiver: A failure by us to exercise or enforce any right or provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.

16. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. The parties submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales.
