Terms of use

These terms are between you and The Trustee for The Snow Withers Trust (ABN 37 709 073 991), publishing under the Mafia Publishing name. It owns and publishes Ansett and operates the Mafia account console. These terms apply when you use Ansett, create an account or pay to place a listing. If you place a listing for a business, you confirm that you have authority to act for that business.

Reading the masthead

Paid listings and advertisements are supplied by the businesses they describe. We review new paid listings before publication, but do not independently verify every claim and do not guarantee an advertiser's products, services, availability or conduct. Check important details with the business before relying on them.

Links to third-party websites are provided for convenience. Those sites have their own content, terms and privacy practices.

Your account and submissions

You are responsible for access to your email account and for activity under a valid sign-in session. Tell us promptly at frankie@mafia.net.au if you believe an account or sign-in link has been misused.

You must submit information that is accurate, lawful and not misleading, and only content and images that you own or have permission to use. You must not submit material that infringes another person's rights, contains malicious code, unlawfully discriminates, or promotes illegal activity.

You keep ownership of your material. You give The Trustee for The Snow Withers Trust, publishing under the Mafia Publishing name, a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, reproduce, resize, format and publish it for the purpose of operating, promoting and archiving the masthead and your listing. This licence ends when the material is no longer reasonably needed for those purposes, subject to legal records, backups and independent archives.

Placement and ranking

A paid placement receives thirty days at full strength from the time payment is captured. Its position is influenced by its bid and age, so it gradually gives way to newer placements after that period. Unless it is archived or removed, the listing may remain published after the thirty days. Publisher notices may occupy fixed positions.

A placement does not renew automatically. To begin a new thirty-day period, you must choose a new bid and complete checkout again.

Payment and review

The checkout page shows the amount and currency before you pay. For a listing that has not yet been approved, Stripe first authorises the amount on your card. We capture it only after approval. If we reject the listing, we cancel the authorisation; your bank controls how quickly the pending hold disappears.

A new placement for unchanged, previously approved content may be charged when checkout completes because that content has already been reviewed. Payment starts the new placement period.

Moderation and removal

We may reject a listing before publication, ask for changes, or remove material that is unlawful, misleading, infringing, unsafe, technically harmful or materially different from what was approved. Approved content cannot be edited in place because an unreviewed change must not replace reviewed material. Contact us if a published listing needs a correction.

Refunds and consumer rights

A placement is not refundable merely because you change your mind, archive the listing early or receive fewer visits than expected. We do not promise a particular number of views, clicks or enquiries.

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies any consumer guarantee, right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded, including rights under the Australian Consumer Law. If we fail to provide a paid service as required, contact frankie@mafia.net.au so we can provide the remedy the law requires.

Availability and responsibility

We take reasonable care in operating the masthead, but maintenance, service-provider failures and events outside our reasonable control may interrupt access. We are responsible for loss to the extent required by law. We are not responsible for an independent advertiser's acts, claims or services, or for content on third-party websites.

Privacy

Our privacy policy explains how personal information is handled.

Governing law and changes

These terms are governed by the laws of Queensland, Australia. Laws that apply to you and cannot be excluded continue to apply. We will update the date above when these terms change and notify affected account holders of material changes where reasonably practicable.
