MindMatch offers both free and premium tiers. Premium features are subject to separate pricing and payment terms which will be displayed at the time of purchase.

7.3 Cancellation and Refunds

We are not responsible for the outcome of any relationship formed through the Platform.

9. Privacy

Your use of MindMatch is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference. Please read it carefully.

10. Intellectual Property

All content on MindMatch that is not user-generated — including the platform design, cognitive engine, matching algorithm, game content, branding and copy — is owned by MindMatch and protected by Australian and international intellectual property laws. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute or create derivative works from our content without our express written permission.

11. Disclaimers

THE PLATFORM IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MINDMATCH DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:

12. Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by Australian law, MindMatch will not be liable for:

Our total liability to you for any claim arising from your use of the Platform will not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim, or AUD $100, whichever is greater.

Nothing in these Terms limits our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

13. Safety

Your safety is important to us. However, we cannot guarantee the conduct of users on or off the Platform. You are responsible for your own safety when interacting with other users. We recommend:

If you experience harassment or feel unsafe, please report the user through the Platform or contact us at hello@mindmatchonline.com.

14. Objectionable Content and Abusive Behaviour

MindMatch has a zero-tolerance policy for objectionable content and abusive behaviour. This includes, but is not limited to: harassment, bullying, threats, hate speech, discriminatory language, explicit or sexual content, and any other content or conduct that a reasonable person would find harmful, offensive, or inappropriate.

Any user found to have posted objectionable content or engaged in abusive behaviour will be permanently removed from the Platform. We do not issue warnings for serious violations.

15. Reporting and Blocking

You can report any user you believe is violating these Terms through the Platform at any time. All reports are reviewed within 24 hours of receipt. Where we confirm a violation, we will take action — including permanent account termination — promptly.

Reporting a user immediately removes them from your view and prevents them from contacting you. You can also remove a profile from your matches at any time without submitting a formal report.

16. Termination

16.1 By You

You may delete your account at any time through the Settings page. Deletion is permanent and your data will be removed in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

16.2 By Us

We may suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or if we discontinue the Platform. We are not liable for any loss resulting from termination.

17. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of New South Wales, Australia. Any disputes arising from these Terms or your use of the Platform will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New South Wales.

18. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes by email or through the Platform. Your continued use of the Platform after changes are posted constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.

19. Compatibility Check Invites

Registered MindMatch users may generate a compatibility check invite link and share it with anyone — including people without a MindMatch account. By clicking an invite link and completing the check, the recipient agrees to the following terms.

19.1 Guest consent and information sharing

When completing a compatibility check as a guest (without an account), you agree to provide your real first name and to complete the cognitive assessment games honestly. Your first name and compatibility score will be visible to the sender. No other information is shared with the sender unless you choose to create a MindMatch account and form a mutual connection.

19.2 Registered user guest flow

If you are a registered MindMatch user who follows an invite link, you can see the sender's first name and your compatibility score. Your extended profile details remain private until a mutual connection is formed. Accepting a connection is always voluntary.

19.3 Pending connections and expiry

If a MindMatch account is created (or already exists) after completing a compatibility check, a pending connection is created between the guest and the sender. Pending connections expire 30 days after creation. After expiry, the connection request is automatically removed. Neither party is obligated to accept.

19.4 Connection limits

Each user may have a maximum of 7 active connections at any time. If either party has reached this limit, a new connection via invite link may be placed in a waiting state until a slot becomes available. Users may free a slot by removing an existing connection.

19.5 Reporting invite links

You may report any invite link you receive if you believe it violates these Terms. Reporting an invite link notifies MindMatch for review and prevents the sender from sending you further invite links. For anonymous guests this is enforced by IP address; for registered users it results in bidirectional removal from each other's matching pool. We will take action against the sender's account where a violation is confirmed.

19.6 Hub user restrictions

Users who are in an active Relationship Hub may not create, share, or accept compatibility check invite links. This restriction is enforced by the Platform. It does not affect the Hub or couple-linking features themselves.
