it owes an obligation of confidence to the Discloser concerning the Confidential Information;

any actual, suspected, likely or threatened breach of a term of this Agreement; or
any theft, loss, damage or unauthorised access, use or disclosure of or to any Confidential Information that is or was in its possession or control.

Certain rights and remedies may be available under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) or similar legislation of other States or Territories and may not be permitted to be excluded, restricted or modified. Apart from those that cannot be excluded, Neutopia and Neutopia’s related entities exclude all conditions and warranties that may be implied by law.
