It is your responsibility to scan any such information for computer viruses. The GPT Group will not be liable to you or to any other person for any loss or damage (whether direct, indirect, consequential or economic), however caused and whether by negligence or otherwise, which may result directly or indirectly from any such information or due to your use of the Site or any website linked to the Site, howsoever caused. To the extent that any liability may be imposed on the GPT Group, to the extent permitted by law it shall be limited to the cost of re-supplying that information.
- Ticketless Parking
The new parking system utilises number plate recognition to take a picture of your number plate when you enter and recognises this at the exit gate.
Customers who visit the centre several times a day will still be offered 3 hours free parking, so long as visits are 60 minutes apart. If you re-enter within 60 minutes of your last departure, you will be charged for the entire period you have parked. If your visit is within 3 hours of your time of entry, you'll enjoy free parking whereby you can simply proceed to the exit and the boom gate will open automatically. For customers staying longer than 3 hours, there are three easy ways to pay for parking:
- at the pay station in centre, by typing in your number plate;
- at the boom gate, by credit or debit card; or
- by registering online, to have your fees automatically deducted from your nominated credit or debit card.

- your browsing activity and content on the Website, the App and other websites operated by third parties to allow your device to be added to one or more pre-defined interest categories;
