WARRANTY POLICY
Customer Protection
One of Indepal’s major objectives is to have happy customers. Happy with our products, happy with our service and, if there’s a fault with your product, happy with the way we respond to your concerns.
Therefore, Indepal supports and abides by the Australian Consumer Law, which sets out your rights as a consumer including your rights to a repair, replacement or refund as well as compensation for damages and loss.
You can find out more at www.accc.gov.au/consumers/consumer-rights-guarantees.
Subject to the Non-Excludable Guarantees, Indepal Pty Ltd. shall not be liable for incidental, consequential, indirect, special or punitive damages or liabilities of any kind arising out of or in connection with the sale or use of our products. Subject to the Non-Excludable Guarantees, Indepal’s entire liability shall be limited to replacement or repair or refund of the purchase price paid, at Indepal’s sole option where permissible by law.
Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law. You are entitled to a replacement or refund for a major failure and compensation for any other reasonably foreseeable loss or damage. You are also entitled to have the goods repaired or replaced if the goods fail to be of acceptable quality and the failure does not amount to a major failure.
This warranty is void if the purchased product has been damaged by accident, negligence, unauthorised repair, or other factors not due to defects in materials or workmanship.
Indepal Warranty
Our limited warranty covers defects in material or workmanship for 2 years from the date of purchase. A valid sales receipt or other proof must be included to show your product was purchased within the warranty period.
If your product contains a defect due to poor workmanship, we will repair the product where possible, replace your product with the same style or an equivalent style of equal value based on the purchase price, or offer a refund. In lieu of a refund you may opt for a credit valued at 110% of your purchase.
