Last updated: 26 April 2026. These terms govern use of the Harpocratēs website and any pre-engagement discussions.
These Terms govern use of the Harpocratēs website and any discussions that take place prior to a formal engagement being agreed. By using this website or submitting an enquiry, you acknowledge these Terms.
Harpocratēs provides transaction advisory and coordination services to property owners, buyers, and developers. These services include:
Harpocratēs operates as a transaction adviser and coordinator. We are not a licensed estate agent and do not act in that capacity. Where licensed agency services are required, they are provided by separately engaged, licensed real estate agents working within the engagement structure we coordinate.
Browsing this website or submitting an enquiry does not create:
Services commence only upon execution of a written agreement signed by both parties.
Until that agreement is executed, no advisory relationship, obligation, or duty of care exists beyond normal professional courtesy.
Harpocratēs treats all website enquiries and pre-engagement conversations as private and confidential. Information you provide is used solely for the purpose of understanding your situation and determining whether an engagement is appropriate. It is not shared with third parties, stored in public-facing systems, or used for marketing purposes.
Fee structures are agreed privately and in writing prior to the commencement of any engagement. Fees are not published publicly. No fee obligation arises from an initial enquiry or pre-engagement conversation. Where a written engagement agreement is executed, fees, payment terms, and any performance components will be specified in that agreement.
You agree not to misuse or misrepresent the content of this website, republish content without written permission, or use the website in any manner that could damage the reputation of Harpocratēs or misrepresent the nature of its services.
All content on this website — including text, structure, design, and the Harpocratēs name and wordmark — is owned by or licensed to Harpocratēs. No content may be reproduced, adapted, or distributed without prior written consent.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits rights under the Australian Consumer Law. To the extent permitted by applicable law, Harpocratēs' liability for any claim arising in connection with this website or any pre-engagement discussion is limited to the value of services actually supplied under a written engagement agreement, if any.
These Terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia. The courts of Victoria have non-exclusive jurisdiction in relation to any dispute arising under or in connection with these Terms.
Where a dispute arises in connection with these Terms or any engagement, the parties agree to attempt resolution through direct discussion before commencing any formal proceedings. This obligation does not prevent either party from seeking urgent interlocutory relief where appropriate.
Harpocratēs may update these Terms from time to time. The current version will always be available on this website. Continued use of the website following any update constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
