Australian Consumer Law — Your statutory rights

Under the ACL, consumers are entitled to guarantees for goods and services, including that products are of acceptable quality, fit for purpose, and match description. These guarantees are in addition to any express warranty we offer and cannot be excluded.

  • Major failure: you may choose a refund, replacement or compensation for reduction in value.
  • Minor failure: we may choose to repair the goods.
  • These rights do not depend on receipt of a tax invoice, but proof of purchase helps us process claims faster.

Manufacturer & store warranties

We provide any applicable manufacturer warranties in addition to consumer guarantees. Warranty durations vary by product — check the product page or included warranty card for specifics.

  • Warranties cover manufacturing defects, not wear & tear or accidental damage.
  • Misuse, improper assembly, or exposure to extreme conditions may void warranty.

How we handle warranty claims

  1. Contact support with order number and photos.
  2. We assess and provide options: repair, replacement, or refund per ACL.
  3. If repair is required, approved shipping may be organised or we may request drop-off.
Delivery

Shipping, delivery & acceptance

Delivery windows are estimates. Please inspect goods at delivery and note any damage on the carrier’s paperwork. Report transport damage within 48 hours to help us expedite a claim.

Accepted goods without reporting damage may complicate claims; we aim to assist even after acceptance where reasonable.

Privacy & data handling

We collect personal information to process orders, provide support, and comply with legal obligations. Our full privacy practices are described on the Privacy page.

You have rights to access and correct your personal information. For privacy complaints, please contact our privacy officer.

Common legal questions

Claims depend on nature of the fault. If it's a major failure, a refund/replacement may be available regardless of age. We assess every claim in line with ACL.

Change-of-mind returns may be accepted at our discretion, subject to product condition and a restocking fee. Custom orders are generally non-returnable unless faulty.

Use the form to notify us of a legal issue, ACL claim or privacy complaint. We aim to acknowledge within 3 business days.

If you are not satisfied with our response, you may refer your matter to:

  • Australian Competition & Consumer Commission (ACCC)
  • State consumer affairs agencies (e.g., Consumer Affairs Victoria)
  • Small claims tribunals or courts

We encourage you to attempt resolution with us first; we will cooperate with external agencies where required.
