Once we accept an order, a binding agreement is formed for the supply of products to you in accordance with these Terms.

It is your responsibility to check the order details, including selected products, delivery details and pricing, before you submit your order through the Site.

All purchases made through the Site are subject to availability. We do our best to keep products in stock and to keep the Site up to date with the availability of products.

If a product is available for pre-order only (it is not currently in stock), this will be clearly indicated on our Site. We may display the date that the product is expected to be available for dispatch to you. These dates are an approximation only, and we will not be liable for any delay in the product being available for dispatch or the inaccuracy of the date.

We will rectify any such errors as soon as possible once we become aware of them.

Where you order the products for delivery outside of Australia, you may need to pay custom charges, import duties or taxes in addition to the Price, which may be imposed by the destination country or any intermediary countries through which the products may transit (Additional Charges). These Additional Charges are not included in the Price and are your sole responsibility. We have no control over the assessment or collection of Additional Charges and cannot predict their amount. You are responsible for complying with all applicable laws and regulations of the destination country regarding the import of the products, and it is your responsibility to check with your local customs office for more information before placing your order.

We deliver the products using a range of delivery methods. You may need to sign for some deliveries and you may have the choice for our delivery partner to leave the products in a safe place or to leave the products at your nearest post office for pick up.

Title to the products will remain with us until you have paid the Price in full for the products. Until title passes, you must not do anything which seeks to create an encumbrance, lien, charge or other interest in or over the products.

AI use notice: Our Site may incorporate or make use of a general purpose artificial intelligence model or system (AI System) that relies on machine-based processing for generating outputs that include text, suggestions, recommendations, or other forms of content. This serves varied objectives and is designed to operate with different levels of autonomy, occasionally learning from data to adapt or improve its performance over time. While we implement policies and procedures to minimise risks arising from the use of this AI System, your use of any content or functionality produced by the AI System remains subject to all the disclaimers and limitations set out in these Terms.

We aim to be transparent about the nature and purposes of the AI System. In particular, that we will make reasonable efforts to: inform you when you are interacting with, or receiving outputs from, a general purpose AI model, explain the general logic and functionality behind it, clarify how the AI System’s outputs are generated, any known limitations of the AI System (for example, the risk of so-called “hallucinations,” misclassifications, or inaccuracies), as well as the types of data sources it may rely upon.

We do not warrant the factual correctness, completeness, or reliability of the outputs generated by the AI System. While we incorporate technical and organisational safeguards to mitigate potential risks, AI technology fundamentally produces content based on probability and patterns identified in data, including public and proprietary sources. It may consequently generate inaccurate or outdated information.

You should use your own judgement before relying on any information provided by the AI System and seek professional or independent advice where necessary. Where the AI System operates using personal data (e.g. through user prompts or the model’s training data), we handle such data in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable data protection legislation. If you have concerns about our AI System’s processing of your personal data, including any right you may have to correction or erasure of personal data memorised by this technology, please contact us using the details provided in our Privacy Policy.

We remind you that certain content displayed or generated by the AI System could derive from external sources. We do not claim intellectual property rights over third-party material or user input. Where required by law or contract, we respect opt-outs asserted by rights-holders who wish to exclude their content from AI System training data or usage. We endeavour to identify the source or status of training data whenever feasible. If you believe that your intellectual property rights are infringed by the AI System’s outputs, please write to us at the contact address stated in these Terms.

The AI System may evolve, be modified or updated from time to time, reflecting technological progress, improvements in training data, or the deployment of additional safeguards. We reserve the right to enhance, suspend, or discontinue the AI System’s features or outputs, with or without prior notice, and without liability to you.

By using our website and any functionality underpinned by the AI System, you acknowledge that you understand the inherent limitations and potential risks associated with AI. You further accept that we provide the AI System “as is,” without any guarantee of its uninterrupted availability, infallibility, or suitability for your particular needs. You agree to comply with all applicable rules when interacting with our AI System, including any references to restricted or prohibited uses set out in these Terms.

If you have additional questions or concerns about this AI transparency notice, or if you wish to exercise any rights you may hold under the law in relation to your data used by the AI System, kindly contact us using the details provided in these Terms. We will make reasonable endeavours to address or mitigate any legitimate concerns regarding data handling or the accuracy, reliability, or compliance of the AI System.
