Welcome to ROUTEZ!
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your rights and obligations regarding the use of ROUTEZ’s Software (“Software”) and services (collectively, the “Service”) on the Internet or in mobile applications. These Terms constitute a binding agreement between ROUTEZ Pty Ltd (including its affiliates and subsidiaries, “ROUTEZ”, “we”, or “us”), the proprietor of all rights in and to the Service, and you. It is therefore recommended that you read these Terms carefully.
By using the ROUTEZ Service, you signify your assent to these Terms;

KEY POINTS
The following key points are highlighted for your convenience only. They do not override or replace the full Terms.
Road and compliance information prevails.
The information provided by the Service is intended as guidance only. It does not replace legally binding information such as traffic laws, road signage, bridge and tunnel clearances, load limits, compliance requirements, or instructions from road authorities or police.
Cautious and lawful driving.
Always drive in accordance with the law, your vehicle’s compliance limits, and prevailing road conditions. It is strictly forbidden to input updates (such as incident reports, low powerlines, potholes, or unsafe routes) while driving. Updates may only be submitted when your vehicle is stopped in a lawful and safe location, or by a passenger without distracting the driver.
Truck-specific compliance.
The Service includes tools for pre-trip checks (e.g., load, weight, height, service status). These are for guidance only and do not replace legal compliance obligations. Drivers and operators remain solely responsible for ensuring their vehicles meet all legal, safety, and operational requirements.
Community-based information.
The Service relies on data and reports from other users. Information may be inaccurate, outdated, incomplete, or unsuitable for your specific vehicle. ROUTEZ does not warrant the reliability, accuracy, or completeness of such information.
Location-based Service.
Some features rely on GPS and location tracking. These cannot be provided without collecting location and route information, as further detailed in the Privacy Policy.
Advertisements.
The Service may display third-party advertisements. ROUTEZ does not endorse any products or services advertised. Drivers must not attempt to view or interact with ads while driving.
Internet connection.
Use of the Service requires an active Internet connection. All associated data charges are your responsibility.
Your age.
