To contact us, including in relation to complaints, please email support@gasapp.co.uk.

What's in these terms?

We have developed a website (www.gasapp.co.uk) and mobile application (App) through which you are able to access our Services. Throughout these Terms, Services will mean the services provided by us to you, a registered gas engineer, via our website or App.

This page (together with the documents referred to below) sets out the terms (Terms) which apply when you use our Services and which make up the contract between us.

The Services available to you via our website and the App will depend on whether you opt to create an account free of charge (a Standard Account) or a paid for account (a Premium Account). The differences in the Services available in the Standard Account and the Premium Account are set out on our website.

Our right to make changes

We may amend these Terms from time to time. Every time you wish to use our website or App, please check these Terms to ensure you understand the terms that apply at that time. Your continued use of the website or App following any changes to these Terms will constitute your acceptance of the changes and your continued agreement to be bound by the Terms as amended.

We reserve the right to reject your application if we have reasonable grounds to suspect that you are not a registered gas engineer or if we have previously denied you access to an account for any reason.

The App is not designed with personal use in mind, nor should it be regarded as an alternative to seeking professional advice from a gas engineer. In the absence of any negligence or other breach by us, your use of the information on this App is entirely at your own risk.

The Services are directed at users based in the United Kingdom. We do not represent that the Services will be available or appropriate for use in any other territory.

USERS

You undertake to use all reasonable endeavours to prevent any unauthorised access to, or use of, the Services and/or the App and, in the event of any such unauthorised access or use, promptly notify us.

Standard Account

If your account is a Standard Account, the account shall be personal to you and may not be shared with anyone else. You shall keep a secure password for your use of the Services and the App, that such password shall be changed no less frequently than quarterly. You must keep your password confidential and you must not share your password or username with anyone else.

Premium Account

If you have purchased a Premium Account, subject to the restrictions set out in these Terms we hereby grant you the right to permit your employees and contractors (Authorised Users) to access the App and use the Services for the period that you pay for access to a Premium Account solely for your internal business operations (User Subscriptions). Up to 2 User Subscriptions are included in the Premium Account subscription fee.

Subject to the paragraph below, you may, from time to time while you have a Premium Account, purchase additional User Subscriptions. We shall grant access to the Services and/or the App to such additional Authorised Users in accordance with the provisions of these Terms.

If you wish to purchase additional User Subscriptions, you must notify us in writing. We will evaluate such request for additional User Subscriptions and respond to you with approval or rejection of the request (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld) and details with the associated costs per additional User Subscription. When you have reviewed the associated cost, if you wish to proceed you must notify us in writing. Where you approve the costs, we shall activate the additional User Subscriptions within 7 days of your approval (you will then be able to add Authorised Users to your account via the App). If we approve your request to purchase additional User Subscriptions and you approve the costs, you shall, within 7 days of the date of our invoice, pay to us the relevant fees.

In relation to the Authorised Users, you undertake that:

  3. you shall permit us or our designated auditor to audit the Services in order to establish the name and password of each Authorised User and your data processing facilities to audit compliance with this agreement. Each such audit may be conducted no more than once per quarter, at your expense, and this right shall be exercised with reasonable prior notice, in such a manner as not to substantially interfere with your normal conduct of business; and
  4. if any of the audits referred to above reveal that any password has been provided to any individual who is not an Authorised User, then without prejudice to our other rights, you shall promptly disable such passwords and we shall not issue any new passwords to any such individual.

Diagnostic Videos

If you have purchased a Premium Account, you will have access to our Diagnostic Video feature. This feature is provided as a reference tool only, and Gas App in no way warrants or verifies the content of any video that it may publish. The Diagnostic Video should supplement your own professional judgment, and should in no way be relied upon. Gas App excludes all liability, to the fullest extent permitted by law, for any direct or indirect liabilities arising out of use or misuse of this feature.

The Diagnostic Videos are the property of Gas App and must not be copied or shared via any platform. Should this term be breached, Gas App reserves the right to deactivate your account, at its sole discretion.
