When you click the “Place Order” button, you understand and agree that you will be charged for the Service(s) via the payment details you have provided.
Please read and check your order carefully before submitting it. However, if you need to correct any errors you can do so before submitting it to us. Before you place your order, you must check that the hardware and software requirements of your computer or device mean that you can download or access the Services.
Our acceptance of your order takes place when we send an email to you to accept it (“Order Confirmation”), at which point and on which date the Contract between you and us will come into existence. The Contract will relate only to those Services included in the Order Confirmation.
If we are unable to supply you with the Services for any reason, we will inform you of this by email and we will not process your order. If you have already paid for the Services, we will refund you the full amount.
SECTION 8 - CHARGES AND PAYMENT
The charges for the Services will be the price indicated on the order pages when you placed your order on our website (“Charges”). We use our best efforts to ensure that the Charges for the Services advised to you are correct. However please see below for what happens if we discover an error in the Charges for the Services you order. The Charges for the Services are in Australian dollars ($AUD), and are inclusive of goods and services tax (“GST”).
The delivery costs for physical goods will be as displayed to you on our website.
We accept payment with debit and credit cards. When purchasing Services, you must pay for them:
(a) at the time of ordering them, if it is a purchase of goods, one-off Services, or an annual payment for ongoing Services, or a subscription to receive Services; or
(b) on the monthly billing date or the annual billing date as advised to you in your Order Confirmation, if it is a purchase of ongoing Services, or a subscription to receive Services paid for on a monthly, half-yearly or annual basis; or
(c) on the scheduled payment periods as advised to you in your Order Confirmation, if you choose a payment plan for your purchase of one-off Services, ongoing Services or a subscription to receive Services.
By purchasing ongoing Services or a subscription to receive Services, you acknowledge and agree to being charged an ongoing recurring fee charged at regular intervals depending on which payment plan you have chosen, which will be automatically deducted from your chosen credit card, debit card or bank account. This ongoing recurring fee will continue to be deducted, without further consent from you or notice from us, until such time as you or we cancel the Contract between us.
By purchasing Services on a payment plan, you acknowledge and agree to being charged an ongoing recurring fee charged at regular intervals depending on which payment plan you have chosen, which will be automatically deducted from your chosen credit card, debit card or bank account.

Whilst we may offer payment plans, partial payments or recurring payments, your purchase of the Services and access to the services occurs on an annual basis.
It is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the Services we sell may be incorrectly priced. We will normally check prices before accepting your order so that, where the Service’s correct price at your order date is less than our stated price at your order date, we will charge the lower amount. If the Service’s correct price at your order date is higher than the price stated to you, we will contact you for your instructions before we accept your order.
We will do all that we reasonably can to ensure that all of the information you give us when paying for the Services is secure by using a secure payment mechanism. However, in the absence of negligence on our part, any failure by us to comply with these Terms or our Privacy Policy, or breach by us of our duties under applicable laws, we will not be legally responsible to you for any loss that you may suffer if a third party gains unauthorised access to any information that you give us.

• where you are purchasing physical goods, the day you receive the first delivery of the goods;
• where you are purchasing services or digital products, the date of your purchase of the services or digital products, or the date when you make your first payment for the services or digital products, whichever occurs first.

If you are entitled to a refund under these Terms we will refund you the Charges you paid for the Services by the method you used for payment. Your refund will be made within 14 days of your notifying us that you want to cancel the Contract.
Where you have agreed to pay a monthly fee or an annual fee for ongoing or subscription Services, you can cancel your Contract at any time using the methods set out below.

Cancellation of your Contract for ongoing or subscription Services for any other reason will not entitle you to a refund.

SECTION 10 - RETURNING PHYSICAL GOODS
If you end the Contract for any reason after products have been dispatched to you or you have received them, you must return them to us. You must post them back to us at the address advised to you in the Order Confirmation.
We will pay the costs of return:
(a) if the products are faulty or misdescribed;
(b) if you are ending the contract because we have told you of an upcoming change to the product or these terms, an error in pricing or description, a delay in delivery due to events outside our control or because you have a legal right to do so as a result of something we have done wrong.
In all other circumstances you must pay the costs of return.
We may reduce your refund of the price (excluding delivery costs) to reflect any reduction in the value of the product, if this has been caused by your handling it in a way which would not be permitted in a shop. If we refund you the price paid before we are able to inspect the product and later discover you have handled it in an unacceptable way, you must pay us an appropriate amount.
The maximum refund for delivery costs will be the costs of delivery by the least expensive delivery method we offer. For example, if we offer delivery of a product within 3-5 days at one cost but you choose to have the product delivered within 24 hours at a higher cost, then we will only refund what you would have paid for the cheaper delivery option.
SECTION 11 - OUR RIGHTS TO END THE CONTRACT

(c) you violate these Terms or any other terms of use which apply to your use of or access to the Services;
