Terms and policies

Who these documents apply to

Your IT and Tech Mates is operated by Chatsifieds.com Pty Ltd (ABN 51 620 592 403). These pages apply to services provided through youritmates.com.

How these terms work

These documents explain your rights and responsibilities when you use the website, start a request, access My Tech Help, accept a quote or receive a service. Mandatory rights under Australian law continue to apply even if a website term says something different.

A quote, booking confirmation, repair notice, warranty document or service agreement may contain additional information for a particular service. If there is an inconsistency, mandatory law applies first, then the specific terms accepted for that service, then these general website terms to the extent they are consistent.

If an organisation or partner arranges services, additional terms explain organisation profiles, who is responsible for payment, purchase orders, account payment periods and how payments are confirmed.

Simple customer journey

Need new help?
Describe what is happening in your own words. The website may prepare a short summary, show how well it understands the problem, recognise a common business issue and ask only for useful missing information.

Need local onsite help?
You can enter a suburb or postcode or, if you choose, let your browser check your location. Precise browser coordinates are not stored by the service-area feature.

Ready to send?
A request is created only after you choose the clearly labelled action to send it and receive confirmation with a request reference. Website suggestions and remembered browser choices cannot create a request on their own.

Already asked for help?
Use My Tech Help to continue the same verified request. Signing in or opening a request does not approve a quote, payment or paid work.

Smart website features in plain English

The website can keep short-lived context during your visit so you do not have to repeat yourself, show relevant existing guidance, recognise common business problems, ask better follow-up questions and remember a small number of broad help topics in your browser for a limited time.

For ordinary service enquiries, a small number of broad actions may help decide which next step to show, such as pricing, a relevant guide, request review or contact. This does not identify you across devices, automatically contact you or create a request. Sensitive safety and support journeys are excluded from sales-oriented prompting.

We also review combined, non-identifying quality patterns to check whether website understanding, follow-up questions and suggested next steps are working well. Proposed improvements can be compared in behind-the-scenes comparison testing and require human review before any customer-facing change.

You can also use an optional service-area checker. Browser location is requested only after you choose it; precise coordinates are used temporarily to estimate a broad area and are not stored by this feature.

See the Privacy policy, Cookie and browser storage policy and Automated assistance and safety policy for more detail and your available choices.
