IF SOMETHING GOES WRONG

    • The Customer may have rights under Australian Consumer Law, including the Consumer Guarantees, which cannot lawfully be excluded and nothing in these Terms has the effect of excluding, restricting or modifying such rights and Consumer Guarantees.

  2. FORCE MAJEURE EVENTS

If a Party is prevented or delayed in the performance of any of its obligations under the Contract by a Force Majeure Event, then that Party will be excused from the performance or punctual performance, as the case may be, of its obligation, to the extent that such Force Majeure Event continues and agrees to use reasonable endeavours to overcome or work around the Force Majeure Event so as to be able to perform its obligations under the Contract.

    • No breach of any provision of the Terms will be waived except with the express written consent of the Party not in breach.
    • Failure or delay by either the Customer or the Supplier in enforcing or partially enforcing any provision of these Terms will not be construed as a waiver of any of its rights under these Terms. Any waiver by one Party of any breach of, or any default under, any provision of the Terms by the other Party will not be deemed a waiver of any subsequent breach or default and will in no way affect the other Terms.
  3. WHAT HAPPENS IF PART OF THE CONTRACT IS ILLEGAL, INVALID OR UNENFORCEABLE

If any provision of the Terms is determined by any court or other competent authority to be unlawful or unenforceable, the other provisions of the Terms will continue in effect. If any unlawful and/or unenforceable provision would be lawful or enforceable if part of it were deleted, that part will be deemed to be deleted, and the rest of the provision will continue in effect (unless that would contradict the clear intention of the Customer and the Supplier, in which case the entirety of the relevant provision will be deemed to be deleted).

  1. MAKING CHANGES TO THE CONTRACT

The Supplier shall be entitled to amend the Terms by publication on the Websites, which amendments shall come into force on the date that the Customer is notified thereof and apply to all Contracts whether entered into before or after that date.
