Partner Agreement

Partner agreement

This agreement sets out terms for ESG professionals, advisors, ESG Practices, Management consultants and others who are myConsole partners.
Last updated: 07 April 2022
If you are a professional service firm who provides professional ESG advisory services or wishes to provide ESG services then you can become a recognised myConsole Partner and receive the benefits of the myConsole Partner Programme (the Programme). By applying for registration into the Program you are accepting and agreeing to the terms and conditions set out in this Partner Agreement (Partner Agreement), as well as myConsole's Terms of Use, as updated or amended from time to time in myConsole's discretion (myConsole's Terms of Use), which are incorporated into this Partner Agreement by reference.
If you are agreeing to this Partner Agreement not as an individual but on behalf of your company, organisation, firm, partnership, or other corporate entity, then you agree and acknowledge that you are binding such entity to this Partner Agreement, and that you are fully authorised to do so.
myConsole may update or modify this Partner Agreement from time to time in its sole discretion. All updates and modifications to this Partner Agreement will be published on myConsole's website, and notice of relevant material updates and modifications to this Partner Agreement will be communicated to you via email, at the email address on record.

Partnership prerequisites
Prior to being accepted to the Programme, you must:

  • Fill out a Partner Application Form
  • Have at least one staff member commit to completing myConsole administrator training course within 60 days
  • Set up your myConsole subscription including designating a principal and entering in payment information to establish your Practice Billing Account (together, the Partnership Prerequisites).

myConsole will determine whether you are accepted to the Programme once the partnership prerequisites above have been completed. myConsole reserves the right to accept or decline any organisation or individual as a myConsole Partner regardless of whether the partnership prerequisites have been met, for example if myConsole determines that you are likely to be unable to meet the ongoing requirements set out below.

Programme benefits
Once you have been accepted to, and as long as you remain part of, the Programme, you will receive access to the applicable benefits of the Programme, as modified or updated by myConsole from time to time, at the specified status level, including:

  • One free myConsole Core ESG platform licence subscription to myConsole for internal use by your business
  • Free one-month trials to other myConsole software modules and products
  • Ability to provide our Free ESG Materiality Assessment to your clients
  • Ability to offer your clients free one month trials and 3 month pilot programmes
  • Access to Partner-only information and support from a myConsole Account Manager

Ongoing obligations

To maintain status as a myConsole Partner, you agree to:

  • Actively promote myConsole to existing and potential clients consistent with your professional and ethical obligations
  • Adhere to the myConsole Partner Code of Conduct
  • Ensure that at least one staff member is up to date with myConsole administration training at all times
  • Either (a) add at least one paid client subscription (not including the myConsole subscription for internal use provided free as part of the Program benefits) to your Partner account within 120 days of acceptance into the Program, and then maintain at least one paid client subscription to your Partner account on an ongoing basis; or (b) be invited into, with an advisor role, at least one paid client subscription, and continue to be invited into, with an advisor role, at least one paid client subscription on an ongoing basis
  • Promote myConsole on your website (if you have one) by maintaining an active hyperlink to www.myConsole.co.uk and adhering to the myConsole Brand Guidelines, including not using the myConsole name or logo anywhere in your company/partner-programs/partnership name, registered business name, product name, service offering, URL, or any social media accounts
  • Otherwise act in good faith in the offering and use of myConsole

Duration of the partner agreement

This Partner Agreement is effective immediately upon you being accepted into the Programme by myConsole, and remains in force until:

  • Superseded by myConsole at any time effective upon the online publication of updated or modified terms - notice of relevant material updates and modifications to this Agreement will be communicated to you via email, at the email address on record
  • This Partner Agreement is terminated by either party for any reason by providing one month's notice in writing to the other party
  • This Partner Agreement is terminated by either party, with immediate effect upon written notice being provided to the other party, for that other party's material breach of any of the terms of this Partner Agreement

If this Partner Agreement is terminated for any reason, you will no longer be able to participate in, or receive the benefits of, the Programme.
For the avoidance of doubt, notwithstanding the termination of this Partner Agreement, myConsole's Terms of Use will continue to apply to your use of the Services (as defined in myConsole's Terms of Use) that myConsole may make available to you as a non-partner, and the following sections of this Partner Agreement will survive any such termination: "Applicability of myConsole's Terms of Use", "Relationship of Parties" and "Indemnity".

Billing

If your client does not wish to manage and pay for a myConsole subscription themselves, you may manage and pay for that subscription on their behalf.
To qualify for applicable reduced pricing on myConsole subscriptions for which you are the Subscriber (as defined in myConsole's Terms of Use), you must:

  • Only have one billing account associated with your myConsole subscriptions, and one billing account associated with your myConsole Partner subscriptions
  • The billing account must be paid by you or your business and not by an individual client
  • Nominate and advise myConsole who, within the business, will be responsible for all matters relating to the billing account

You agree to adhere to the myConsole subscription and payment terms set out in myConsole's Terms of Use, as updated or amended from time to time.

Status

Partner status is determined in accordance with the Partner Benefits scheme in place from time to time. More information regarding the Partner Benefits scheme is set out in the Partner guide below. For the avoidance of doubt, any determinations by myConsole on matters relating to the Partner scheme (including status level and the operation of the points system) will be final.

Applicability of myConsole's terms of use

This Partner Agreement applies in addition to, and should be read in conjunction with, myConsole's Terms of Use, which are incorporated in this Partner Agreement by reference to the extent applicable and which govern matters in relation to your dealings with myConsole, including limitations on liability, indemnification, intellectual property, and governing law.
You acknowledge and agree that all access (including by Invited Users, as defined in myConsole's Terms of Use) to myConsole's services will be subject to myConsole's then current Terms of Use.
In the event of any inconsistency between this Partner Agreement and myConsole's Terms of Use myConsole's Terms of Use will take priority.

Relationship of parties

No agency, partnership, joint venture or employment is created between myConsole and you as a result of this Partner Agreement. You are not authorised to create any obligation, express or implied, on behalf of myConsole.

Indemnity

You agree to indemnify myConsole against any and all claims, costs, damages and/or loss that myConsole may sustain or incur, as a result of any claim by a third party, including your clients and any myConsole users, arising from: (a) your acts or omissions including, but not limited to, your provision of professional services, implementation support, or other products or services, (b) your breach of this Partner Agreement.

Status upgrade guide

Your Partner status is based on the number of your clients using myConsole set out below. More details are available on the status levels page.
This guide has been developed to give an overview of how you can move up status levels in the myConsole Partner Program.

Subscription points

How to move up status levels:

  • Owning the subscription for a client on myConsole.
  • Being invited in with the advisor role into your client's active myConsole subscription.

Things to note:

  • Recognise your client number is counted per each subscription irrespective of how many staff are invited in.
  • Trial organisations do not count. The subscriptions must be paying.
  • Client numbers will be calculated based on active subscriptions used by a legal entity.
  • Number of clients are described on the status levels page of myConsole.co.uk.
  • To qualify for being "invited into" a client's active myConsole subscription, where the client is paying for the subscription, you must be actively serving clients (defined as having logged into the client's organisation within the last 120 days).

Additional things to note

  • At least one member of your staff must hold a current myConsole administrator training notification. Partner benefits including reduced pricing on myConsole subscriptions for which you are the Subscriber (as defined in myConsole's Terms of Use) will be suspended in the event that no one associated with your firm has a current myConsole administrator notification.
  • All myConsole subscriptions that your business owns must be on one billing account. Partner benefits including reduced pricing on myConsole subscriptions for which you are the Subscriber (as defined in myConsole's Terms of Use) may be suspended until you consolidate your billing accounts or transfer billing to your clients.
  • Only staff members that are actively serving clients (defined as having logged into client organisations in the last 60 days) will count towards your myConsole certification requirements.
  • You and your staff must be listed as a Practice Staff member in myConsole for myConsole certifications to be recognised.
  • This points program may be superseded by myConsole at any time effective upon the online posting of modified points scheme.
