Terms of Use
Last updated: 19 July 2026
These Terms of Use apply when you access or use The Men’s Waypoint website. By continuing to use the website, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please stop using the website.
1. About the website
The Men’s Waypoint is an independent Australian information and navigation project for adults aged 18 and over.
The website provides general information, practical starting points, downloadable resources and links to independent Australian support services. It is not a medical, psychological, counselling, therapy, crisis or emergency service.
The Website Disclaimer and Privacy Policy form part of these terms and should be read with them.
2. Emergency and professional assistance
The website is not monitored for emergency or crisis requests.
If you or someone else is in immediate danger in Australia, call Triple Zero (000) or go to the nearest hospital emergency department.
For crisis and urgent emotional support options, visit the Need Help Now page and contact an appropriate independent service directly.
Website content is not a diagnosis, clinical assessment, treatment recommendation or substitute for advice from a qualified professional. Do not delay seeking appropriate professional assistance because of information on this website.
3. Who may use the website
The website is currently intended for adults aged 18 and over in Australia.
Some external services linked from the website support younger people. Those organisations operate independently and are responsible for their own eligibility rules, services, privacy practices and terms.
4. Acceptable use
You may access and use the website for lawful, personal and non-commercial information and navigation purposes.
You must not:
- use the website for an unlawful, fraudulent, harmful or abusive purpose;
- attempt to gain unauthorised access to the website, hosting systems or administration areas;
- introduce malware, malicious code or content designed to disrupt the website;
- scrape, harvest or systematically extract website content or technical data without written permission;
- impersonate The Men’s Waypoint or falsely suggest an association, approval or endorsement;
- reproduce or distribute substantial website content in a misleading or commercially exploitative way;
- remove copyright, attribution or safety notices; or
- use website content to diagnose, assess, target, exploit or harass another person.
We may restrict access or take reasonable protective action if we believe use of the website threatens its security, integrity, visitors or lawful operation.
5. Downloadable resources
Unless stated otherwise, you may download and print The Men’s Waypoint worksheets and resources for your own personal, non-commercial use.
You may also share an unmodified resource privately with a trusted person or appropriately qualified professional for the purpose for which it was created.
You must not sell, license, rebrand, substantially modify, publish as your own, incorporate into a commercial product or distribute resources at scale without prior written permission.
Downloads are educational and reflective tools only. They are not screening tools, clinical assessments, treatment plans or substitutes for professional care.
6. Intellectual property
Unless otherwise identified, the website’s original text, resource design, branding, graphics and downloadable materials are owned by or licensed to The Men’s Waypoint and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.
Third-party names, logos and trademarks belong to their respective owners. Referring or linking to an organisation does not transfer ownership or imply sponsorship.
Nothing in these terms prevents a use that is permitted by Australian law and cannot lawfully be restricted.
To request permission to reuse material beyond these terms, contact us before publishing or distributing it.
7. External links and independent services
Links to government agencies, health professionals, directories, helplines, crisis services and other organisations are provided for convenience and navigation.
Unless expressly stated, The Men’s Waypoint does not operate, control, rank, sponsor or endorse an external organisation or guarantee its availability, suitability, qualifications, fees, waiting times, advice or outcomes.
When you visit an external website or contact a provider, that organisation’s own terms and privacy practices apply. You are responsible for making appropriate enquiries before using a service.
8. Accuracy and changes
We take reasonable care when preparing website content, but information can change. We do not guarantee that every page, service detail, fee, referral requirement, opening time, eligibility rule or link will always be complete, current or error-free.
Confirm important information directly with the relevant provider before relying on it.
We may correct, update, add, remove or reorganise content and website features without notice. We may also suspend or discontinue any part of the website where reasonably necessary.
9. Availability and security
We aim to keep the website available and secure but do not guarantee uninterrupted, timely or error-free access. Maintenance, technical faults, provider outages, cyber incidents or circumstances outside our control may affect availability.
You are responsible for using suitable security measures on your own device and for keeping personal copies of any resource you wish to retain.
10. No user accounts or submissions at launch
At the date of these terms, the public website does not offer user accounts, public comments, personal journals, story submissions, online assessments or saved worksheet answers.
Do not attempt to submit urgent requests or detailed personal health information by email. If interactive or community features are introduced later, additional terms and rules may apply.
11. Privacy
Our Privacy Policy explains what limited technical or contact information may be handled when you use the website and how you can raise a privacy enquiry.
By using the website, you acknowledge that internet services and email cannot be guaranteed to be completely secure.
12. Responsibility and liability
Your use of the website and any decision to contact an external provider remain your responsibility.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, The Men’s Waypoint is not responsible for loss, harm or damage arising from:
- reliance on general website content;
- use or storage of a downloadable resource;
- interruption or unavailability of the website;
- an external website, provider or support service; or
- information, acts or omissions outside our reasonable control.
Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies a right, guarantee, remedy or liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, restricted or modified under Australian law.
13. Breach of these terms
If you breach these terms, we may take reasonable steps to protect the website, its visitors and our rights. This may include restricting access, removing unauthorised material, preserving relevant records or referring suspected unlawful activity to an appropriate authority.
14. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws applicable in the Australian state or territory from which The Men’s Waypoint is operated, together with applicable Commonwealth laws.
Any dispute will be subject to the jurisdiction of the courts and tribunals that have authority under those laws, subject to any rights that cannot lawfully be limited.
15. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms when the website, its features or applicable requirements change. The current version will be published on this page with its updated date.
Your continued use of the website after an update means the updated terms apply from the date shown, to the extent permitted by law.
