Terms of Use
Last updated: 1 September 2026
About This Website
SecurityFences.com.au is an independent online platform that connects people and businesses seeking security fencing services with suitable local contractors. We are not a fencing company, do not perform fencing work ourselves, and do not employ fencers or installers.
Our role is limited to collecting information about your project and sharing it with security fencing contractors in our network who may be able to assist. We do not endorse any particular contractor, guarantee the quality of any work performed, or warrant that any contractor will respond to your enquiry.
These terms govern your use of the SecurityFences.com.au website and any services offered through it. By accessing or using this website, you agree to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree, please discontinue use of the site.
Use of Service
SecurityFences.com.au provides a referral platform only. When you submit an enquiry through our website, we review the information you provide and distribute it to security fencing contractors within our network who operate in your area and whose services may match your requirements.
We are not a party to any agreement reached between you and a contractor. Any contract for fencing services is formed directly between you and the contractor. We have no control over the quality, safety, timeliness, or legality of any work performed by a contractor, and we make no representations about any contractor listed on our platform.
We reserve the right to refuse or remove any enquiry or listing at our sole discretion, including but not limited to enquiries we consider incomplete, misleading, or incompatible with our platform's purpose.
User Obligations
When using SecurityFences.com.au, you agree to:
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information in all enquiry forms and communications
- Use the platform only for genuine security fencing enquiries
- Not submit false, fraudulent, or frivolous enquiries
- Not use the platform for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable Australian law
- Not attempt to circumvent our systems, scrape data, or harvest contractor information for unauthorised purposes
- Communicate with contractors in a professional and respectful manner
- Not misuse the platform by submitting repetitive or bulk enquiries
You are solely responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and for any decisions you make based on communications with contractors. We recommend verifying a contractor's licences, insurance, and credentials before engaging their services.
Contractor Relationships
Security fencing contractors in our network are independent businesses. They are not employees, agents, partners, or joint venturers of SecurityFences.com.au. We do not supervise, direct, or control the work of any contractor.
Each contractor is solely responsible for their own:
- Business operations and compliance with applicable laws
- Licensing, insurance, permits, and qualifications
- Pricing, quotes, and contractual terms offered to customers
- Quality of work, safety standards, and customer service
- Handling of personal information in accordance with privacy laws
We encourage all users to undertake their own due diligence before engaging any contractor. SecurityFences.com.au does not conduct background checks, verify credentials, or monitor the ongoing performance of contractors in its network.
