GPS Log Book LiVE Product
- This page is intended to provide you with all the necessary information in regard to the use of, and the terms and conditions applicable to such use, of the GPS LOG BOOK LIVE Product (GLBLP) which you have just purchased or are about to purchase.
-
Purpose
The GLBLP has been designed to record, using GPS and GSM technology, electronically, the distance travelled by a specific vehicle with the data available through an online interface from where you will be able to accurately compile and produce a “log book”, which can be easily supplied to the ATO for tax return purposes if you are claiming any costs in relation to your business travel. As such it is designed to function and operate within the borders of Australia.*
-
Quick Start and Operational Guide
- Remove GLBLP carefully from packaging.
- Access the internet site, the details of which are included in the packaging, and use the registration code recorded in the packaging to use when linking the GLBLP to your account
- Once you have landed on the relevant site, you can record your personal details. You must enter the GLBLP device details (as requested) and link it to one specific vehicle.
- Once successfully registered a message will appear on screen notifying you of this fact.
- Your GLBLP shall then be operative.
- The GLBLP can then be installed in your vehicle. See more under the heading “Installation”.
- PLEASE NOTE: The GLBLP uses GSM technology and is therefore similar to a cellphone. Therefore, communication by the GLBLP can not be and is not guaranteed by GPS Log Book as it is reliant on the network coverage supplied and maintained by the network providers and/or access to satellites. Similarly GPS data is dependent on access to satellites, poor weather and restricted view of the sky may therefore affect GPS accuracy. There may also be areas where you are not permitted to use the GLBLP or enter while the GLBLP is ”live”, being the same or similar areas in which you are not permitted to enter with or use a cellphone.
- You must designate the trips, on the website and through the application, which the GLBLP shall record as either “business” or “private” use in order to be able to compile the “log book” required by the ATO at the financial year end. It is your responsibility to properly allocate your “business” and “private” travel.
- At the end of the financial year simply produce the Vehicle Tax Period Report from the website which will then produce all business travel in a report which you can include with your tax return to the ATO*.
-
Licence and Charges
- You will be required to agree to the terms of use of the software during the course of registering the GLBLP.
- Your purchase of the GLPLP on this website entitles you to receive and register the GLBLP. The use of the GLBLP however requires you to pay a monthly subscription, in advance. There is however no contract period and you may decide, at any time, on one full calendar month’s written notice to Gps Log Book, to stop the subscription.
The monthly subscription entitles you, on a monthly basis, to:
- the non-exclusive use of the intellectual property of GPS LOG BOK relating to the GLBLP; and
- the non-exclusive use of the log book functionality on the www.gpslogbook.com.au website; and
- the use of the data on the SIM card inserted in the GLBLP; and
- all firmware and software updates in order for the GLBLP to perform; and
- PERFEKT’s first line support by e-mail(support@gpslogbok.com.au) or telephone during normal office hours; and
- receive notifications from PERFEKT advising you of updates as well as reminders, 7 (seven) days prior to due date, when payments are due for your subscription to continue (should you elect not to use a direct debit facility); and
- receive notifications by e-mail should the GLBLP not transmit any data for a period of 24 (twenty four) hours.
- In the event that you do not make payment of the monthly subscription within 30 (thirty) days of the due date, PERFEKT may, automatically and without further notice to you, “turn off” the SIM card in the GLBLP and it shall therefore no longer operate and shall provide none of the functionality set out herein. Should you wish to re-subscribe for the service, PERFEKT reserves the right to charge a re-connection and/or re-activation fee.
- Please be aware that should you not re-subscribe for the service the SIM card may be cancelled by the networks and should you ever wish to re-subscribe you may be required to deliver the GLBLP to PERFEKT, at your cost, for a new SIM card to be inserted. PERFEKT shall charge a fee for this. In the event that your SIM card has been cancelled and should you wish to re-subscribe you will have to contact our offices in order for us to replace and/or reactivate the SIM card, for a fee, and pay the necessary subscription.
- We may offer additional services or options, in due course, through the GLBLP or the website, to which you will also be able to subscribe and which may have additional licence fees applicable.
- PLEASE NOTE: for any period in respect of which you have not paid the necessary and requisite subscription, in full, by no later than the actual due date, the GLBLP may not record or transmit the information which it is designed to do. You shall have no claim of any nature whatsoever against PERFEKT in regard to the loss of this information. PERFEKT may be able to recover this data but provides no guarantees in this regard. You will be charged for this exercise should you request PERFEKT to attempt to recover this information whether PERFEKT are successful or not in recovering the data.

Support and Registration
Should you experience any difficulties or problems with the registration of the GLBLP you should contact us using the support details provided on the website (www.gpslogbook.com.au). We will endeavour to respond and assist you as soon as possible.
-
Warranty
- We offer a 12 (twelve) month, from date of purchase, replacement warranty, provided that this warranty is only in respect of manufacturer’s faults with the GLBLP and not in respect of damage caused by misuse of any description or lack of maintenance or care (including for example, water exposure or being dropped) or any other reason.
- The GLBLP has an IP67 housing rating, is weather proof and has been sealed in the production process. Should you break the seal of the housing of the GLBLP all warranties and guarantees are immediately void.
- Should you wish to claim on the warranty you should return the GLBLP to us, with your details and details of the fault. We shall test the GLBLP and if found faulty due to a manufacturing fault a replacement GLBLP shall be sent to you as soon as possible, free of charge.
- In the event that the testing reveals that the fault is not a manufacturer’s fault, the GLBLP shall be returned to you, at your request, at your cost
-
Returns Policy
- Should you, within 10 (ten) days of receiving the GLBLP, wish to return it (together with all original packaging and contents of package), you may do so but only if the GLBLP is damaged, not by you, or unsuitable for its reasonably intended use or you have found that it does not meet its stated purpose.
- Should you return the GLBLP (together with all accessories in the packaging) you shall receive a full refund less a reasonable fee for the re-packaging of the GLBLP (if the packaging is damaged) and/or less a reasonable charge for the use of the GLBLP should you have, in fact, used it.
-
Installation
- Included in the packaging of the GLBLP is a list of our recommended installers. While we have taken reasonable care in selecting the recommended installers we do not and cannot guarantee their work and you use their services at your own risk.
- We require you to utilise the services of a qualified motor electrician for the installation of the GLBLP. Should you not use the services of a qualified motor electrician for the installation, the warranty that we offer is void.
- The GLBLP is delivered together with a “Fuse Kit” which itself contains instructions on the use of the “Fuse Kit” and the installation of the GLBLP. These instructions must be strictly complied with in the installation of the GLBLP.
- As the GLBLP is “live” and therefore communicates continuously using GSM and GPS technology it should not be installed in a place in the vehicle that limits or restricts its ability to utilise these communication methods. It may however be installed in a vehicle’s standard cubby hole, for example.
-
Power
- The GLBLP contains a built in lithium battery which must be charged at least once every 6 (six) months for a period of no less than 2 (two) full hours. Failure to comply with this requirement may lead to battery failure and the necessity that the battery be replaced. The battery may only be replaced by PERFEKT and will be at a cost to you. You will be required to deliver the GLBLP to the offices of PERFEKT, at your cost, should a battery replacement be necessary as a result of battery failure, should the failure be due to the GLBLP not being charged as required.
- The GLBLP is designed to be charged using between a 9 (nine) and 30 (thirty) volt power supply. Should you use a power supply other than within these specifications you shall immediately lose any and all warranties or guarantees on the GLBLP offered by us.

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: BE AWARE THAT:
- Unless you register on the website as set out above, the GLBLP shall not operate as you require and will not be able to produce a “log book” and perform the other functions it was designed to do. You should accordingly register the GLBLP as soon as possible after purchase.
- Each GLBLP must only be linked to 1 (one) vehicle otherwise it will not provide the “log book” report as required. Should you have more than one vehicle for which you require a “log book”, you should obtain a GLBLP for each vehicle.
- The GLBLP is not:
- a vehicle tracking device for recovery and
- the GPS Log Book interface is not primarily intended for live tracking purposes; and it is not
- a security device; or
- an insurance approved solution for vehicle recovery or theft protection; or
- a comprehensive driver behaviour monitoring or management tool; or
- a fleet management product; or
- a vehicle recovery unit.
- The GLBLP communicates using satellites and cell phone towers. Should you be undercover (underground parking for example) or in an area in which the GLBLP cannot locate any satellites or cell phone towers, the GLBLP will not function. This is outside of our control and we accept no liability in this regard.
- While the GLBLP should be able to be used outside of the Republic of Australia, there is no guarantee that it will operate outside of the borders of the Australia and further that the records it produces will be acceptable to any other party, for any purpose whatsoever.
- Should you not use the GLBLP with due care and in accordance with the instructions and recommendations set out herein, we shall have absolutely no liability for any damage or loss that may be suffered or incurred as a result.
- It is solely your responsibility to ensure that the GLBLP is correctly installed, that it is registered correctly and that it is transmitting the data as required. You should therefore check the website regularly to ensure that it is operating as required. We accept no responsibility should the GLBLP not have been correctly installed and/or should you not check, at least once a week, that it is operating correctly.
- Our liability is at all times and in all cases limited to the amount as set out in our standard terms and conditions.
- Our standard terms and conditions apply save that where there is any conflict between our standard terms and conditions and these terms and conditions, these terms and conditions shall apply.
