5.              Product depiction

5.1            We endeavour to represent Goods for sale as accurately as possible on the Website, however due to technical limitations of photography and visual representation, we cannot guarantee that Goods listed for sale appearing at the Website will always look exactly the same when received (including in respect of colour).

6.              Purchasing Procedure

6.1            The promotion and listing of Goods on the Website does not constitute an offer to sell or guarantee the availability of Goods.  It is an invitation to treat only and we reserve the right to accept or reject your purchase request for any reason including but not limited to stock shortages.  Unfortunately we cannot guarantee that all Goods displayed at our website will always be available for sale.  Orders placed by you via the Website are offers to purchase Goods at the prices listed and pursuant to these Terms and Conditions. 

6.2            All prices listed on the Website are listed in Australian Dollars (AUD $).  Prices are current at time of display but are subject to change.  Pricing information including tax and duty calculated for your shipping destination is available at the Website, with taxes and duties for your destination being set out on the order summary page.

6.3            Where you order Goods from us and we accept your order we will notify you by e-mail confirmation.  That is when our contract is made.  Our message will also confirm details of your purchase and tell you when we anticipate dispatching your order. Please check this confirmation.

6.4            You may not cancel an order once it has been submitted, even if our acceptance or rejection of your offer is still pending.

6.5            Payment must be effected in the manner described on the Website (VISA, MasterCard and any other method indicated such as PayPal) and must be received in full prior to dispatch of Goods by us.  If paying with a credit card, there may be additional charges imposed by your credit card provider where your purchase involves foreign exchange transactions.

6.6            If your payment is not received or declined by your bank or credit card issuer, we cannot hold Goods against your order. You warrant that there will be sufficient funds or credit facilities to cover the order amount.  We reserve the right to obtain validation of your payment details before dispatching Goods.

6.7            You acknowledge that despite our reasonable precautions, Goods may be listed at an incorrect price or with incorrect information due to a typographical error or like oversight.  In these circumstances, we reserve the right to cancel the transaction, notwithstanding that your order has been confirmed and your credit card has been charged.  We reserve this right up until the time of delivery of Goods to you.  If a cancellation of this nature occurs after your credit card has been charged for the purchase, we will immediately issue a credit to your credit card account for the amount in question.

6.8            If we do not have all of the Goods you order in stock, we will offer you alternatives. If this happens you may:

(a)             accept the alternative Goods we offer; or

(b)             cancel that part of your order pertaining to the Goods not in stock.

6.9            If we owe you money on account of your cancellation, we will credit your credit or debit card as soon as reasonably practicable but in any event no later than 7 days from the date of cancellation of your order.

7.              Price and Payment

7.1            We endeavour to keep our Website and catalogue prices for Goods updated and accurate but it is possible that actual current sale prices may differ from that published on the Website.  Where you order Goods that are priced higher than the listed price, we will not send your order until you have confirmed that you wish to order Goods at the new price.

7.2            Banking charges by the receiving bank on payments to us will be borne by us. All other charges relating to payment in a currency other than Australian Dollars will be borne by you.

7.3            Prices include Australian GST (Goods and Services Tax).  Any information given by us in relation to exchange rates are approximate only and may vary from time to time.

8.              Delivery

8.1            Delivery charges are dependent on the Goods selected and the delivery destination for the order.  These will be calculated and you will be advised of their amount before you finalise and submit your order. 

8.2            Deliveries will be made by post / a carrier instructed by us to the address stipulated in your order.  We may deliver the Goods in instalments if they are not all available at the same time for delivery.

8.3            Delivery timeframes listed at the Website are estimates only, to be used as a guide.  Typically you will receive your orders within 30 days at the latest from acceptance of your order.  We will not be responsible for any delays caused by customs clearance processes at the destination country or any other circumstances beyond our reasonable control.

8.4            We may require a signature for any Goods delivered.  In such circumstances, if you order Goods for another recipient (e.g. as a gift) we are entitled to accept evidence of their signature as evidence of delivery.

8.5            If a delivery is delayed due to circumstances beyond our reasonable control, we will (to the extent that we become aware of such delay) contact you to let you know and take any reasonable steps we can to minimise the effect of the delay. 

8.6            From the time of delivery Goods delivered to you are your responsibility and liability.

8.7            While we insure each purchase during the time it is in transit from us to your delivery address, to the extent permissible and except as set out hereunder, we disclaim liability for loss, damage or theft of items once they leave us.  We suggest insuring your items.  We also strongly recommend that you have your Goods shipped to a business address.

8.8            Claims for undelivered orders or orders that have only partially been delivered must be made within 30 days of the order date to allow us to follow up with Australia Post. No claims for non-delivery can be accepted after this time.

9.              Cancellations, returns, exchanges of orders        

9.1            You may cancel your order for Goods at any time before we dispatch your order.  If you cancel before we have dispatched the Goods, we will refund to you the price of the Goods and the cost of delivery, if any.

9.2            You are required to inspect and check Goods that you receive through us thoroughly as soon as received and to enure that all the components and parts you have ordered are included.

9.3            Where your Goods arrive damaged through delivery please notify us immediately upon receipt.  We may require you to complete a return form and provide us with photographs of the damage for our further assessment.  We will liaise with you to discuss the return process for damage that we believe was caused during delivery. 

9.4            If you wish to return Goods to us because you consider them to be defective, you must tell us by email to info@caresafealarm.com.au or by letter to our postal address specified in these terms and conditions that you would like to return Goods, specifying exactly what Goods and when purchased, and giving full details of the defect or other reason for return, including:

(a)             the nature of the fault/defect;

(b)             the date, if relevant, when the fault/defect became apparent;

(c)             when and how you discovered the fault/defect;

(d)             how the fault/defect has affected your use of the Goods;

We will then respond to you accordingly.  

9.5            If, acting reasonably, we determine that a return of the Goods is warranted because of damage or defect, we will issue a returns authority.  If you send Goods to us without a returns authority, we may reject them.  You must not attempt to return any Goods before having so communicated with us.  Where we accept such returns, you agree to follow any directions regarding postage and packing in relation to the item in question.

9.6            The Goods must be returned to us as soon as any defect or damage is discovered and so far as possible, Goods must be returned:

(a)             with both Goods and all packaging as far as possible in their original condition;

(b)             securely wrapped;

(c)             including a copy of our tax invoice; and

(d)             at your risk and cost.

9.7            Products purchased at a discounted or sale price can only be returned if defective or if otherwise required by law, but in any case not for change of mind reasons.

9.8            Without limiting and subject to any obligation under the terms of any warranty provided in relation to Goods, where you claim Goods you have received are defective, unless the law requires us to do otherwise in the circumstances, we will at our election arrange a replacement, give you a store credit for the purchase price or give you a refund, provided that you notify us of the defective Goods within 3 months of receipt and that you return them with all packaging reasonably required. 

9.9            We will be under no obligation to replace or provide a refund where the Goods have become of unacceptable quality due to circumstances such as misuse, failure to use in accordance with our/ the manufacturer’s reasonable instructions, using the Goods in an abnormal way or failing to reasonably care for the Goods.

9.10        We may monitor the number of returns and exchanges made by you.  Where you seek returns and exchanges with a frequency that we consider to be excessive we may refuse to accept further orders from you or disable your account.

10.         Disclaimers, limitations and warnings
