4. An authorised user of the Card cannot obtain a refund from Translink of any amounts credited to the Card, top up the Card online or enable auto top up of the Card, dispute the balance of a the Card transaction or change the details associated with the Card.
5. By activating and using the Card, the Authorised User agrees to these conditions of use and to the conditions of use published by Translink.
6. The Card will be considered activated upon the first use of the Card on public transport.
7. The University is authorised to complete and correct details provided by an Authorised User on any application form submitted with respect to a the Card and to record and use such details in accordance with any privacy policy issued by the University. An Authorised User must notify the University promptly of any change in such details including changes to name, address, and study details.
