eCommerce
While we take every care to make sure our online store on the Website is accurate and up to date, we’re only human and from time to time, mistakes may occur (for example, a pricing error).
Please note that when you submit an order through the Website, no agreement is formed until we process and accept your order and send you a confirmation. If there’s been a technical error leading to your order, we may choose not to fill the order, but we’ll be sure to contact you to discuss your options (for example, placing an order at the correct price).

You may pay for your order via electronic funds transfer, or any method of payment available on our Website from time to time.
You acknowledge and agree that your payment in full in cleared funds is a condition of this Agreement, any breach of which will entitle us to terminate this Agreement immediately. If a request for payment is returned or denied by your financial institution or is unpaid by you for any other reason, then you’ll be liable for any associated costs incurred by us, including banking fees and charges.
If a payment due to us is not made for any reach, this amounts to a breach of this Agreement, which will entitle us to suspend or limit your access to the Course until the payment is made and/or to terminate this Agreement immediately on notice to you.

Advice, Information and Instructional Videos
Our Course has been created by an Accredited Practising Dietitian. It is designed to provide information to individuals who are trying to improve their wellbeing with endometriosis.
Throughout the Course we may give you advice, recommendations, information, instruction or assistance in relation to nutrition, women’s health, endometriosis and general wellbeing in writing, verbally or in another format, believing it to be accurate, appropriate and reliable at the time but we don’t give any warranty of accuracy, appropriateness or reliability.
The information, advice and instruction we give are general in nature and is not intended to constitute or substitute for professional or medical advice. You should seek appropriate professional and medical advice suitable for your personal circumstances if necessary.
You should always consult with your doctor or health care professional before acting on recommendations or suggested changes to your diet. If at any time you experience an adverse health reaction you should seek professional medical attention immediately.
Where possible, information provided in the Course is supported by external research. We don’t give any warranty of accuracy, appropriateness or reliability for third-party content. You should make your own enquiries into any research referenced throughout the course.
We won’t accept any liability or responsibility (including liability for negligence) for any loss suffered because of your or any other person’s reliance on information or advice we provide in the Course, unless otherwise required by law.
Linked Websites
In the Course, we may link to and from other websites that we think share our ethos and that we think you will find helpful. Those websites will have information collated and presented by third-party businesses, organisations and individuals. Please note that we may include these links for your convenience, however we don’t necessarily endorse or support the views, opinions, standards or information expressed on them. For your own safety, please make sure you check the protocols and standards of the linked websites before using them.
As the linked websites are run by third parties, we can’t warrant or represent that any of the information on them is up to date, complete or correct. While we do our best to make sure we link to reputable websites, we can’t accept responsibility or liability for any loss, damage, cost or expense you or anyone else might incur because you’ve used or relied on material on the linked websites, so please make sure you use caution and common sense while browsing online, especially if you’re making purchases.
Australian Consumer Law
Our Course is covered by the Australian Consumer Law, which forms Schedule 2 to the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) (ACL) and which provides for consumer guarantees that cannot be excluded.
Nothing in these terms excludes any right, guarantee or warranty you’re entitled to by law, however we do exclude all other guarantees, conditions and warranties to the maximum extent permitted by law. We also specifically exclude liability for negligence.
Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability
Except as set out above, to the maximum extent permitted by law, we exclude all terms, guarantees, warranties, representations or conditions which are not expressly stated in these terms and conditions. Please note that we will not be liable for any special, indirect or consequential loss or damage (unless such loss or damage is reasonably foreseeable resulting from our failure to meet an applicable consumer guarantee to which you are entitled under the ACL), loss of profit or opportunity, or damage to goodwill arising out of or in connection with the Course, Website or this Agreement (including as a result of not being able to use or access the Course or Website), whether at common law, under contract, tort (including negligence), in equity, pursuant to statute or otherwise, except where we are unable to limit or exclude such loss under the ACL (for example, we are unable to exclude or limit liability for consequential loss arising out of a breach of a consumer guarantee).
We make the Course available to you, however you use the Course at your own risk. Everything in the Course is provided "as is" and "as available" – we don’t make any representations or warranties of any kind.
If for any reason you are not a consumer for the purposes of the ACL, we exclude all liability to you, however arising, including by negligence.

Licence of Course Intellectual Property
We grant you, our Customer, a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, revocable license to access the Course and Course Intellectual Property in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, to copy and store the Course content in your device's cache memory and to print pages from the Course for your own personal and non-commercial use.

You acknowledge that we’ve established a valuable reputation and goodwill in Australia in the area of nutrition, women’s health and endometriosis services with regard to dietetics. Subject to law and your rights in connection with the enforcement of this Agreement, you must not at any time disparage, permit or authorise the disparagement of us, any of our related entities or any director, officer, employee, agent, consultant or adviser of us or a related entity; or otherwise make, permit or authorise the making of any statement in anyway relating to or connected with any matters in dispute which is calculated or is reasonably likely to cause damage to us, any of our related entities or any director, officer, employee, agent, consultant or adviser of us or any related entity (including damage to their respective reputations).
This clause survives termination of this Agreement.
Confidentiality
You acknowledge that you may have access to certain confidential information belonging to us, including (but not limited to) technical information and know how relating to the Course, the Website and us (Confidential Information). You agree to treat as confidential the Confidential Information and not use or disclose the Confidential Information during the term of this Agreement or thereafter, other than in connection with performing this Agreement or with our prior written consent.
In the event of a breach or threatened breach by you of this clause, you acknowledge we will be irreparably harmed, and monetary damages will be an insufficient remedy. Accordingly, you consent to enforcement of this clause by means of temporary or permanent injunction and other appropriate legal or equitable relief in any competent court.
This clause survives the expiry or termination for any reason of this Agreement.
You agree the restrictions set out in this clause are reasonable and necessary to protect our goodwill and reasonable commercial interests.
Relationship of parties
The relationship between the parties is that of independent contractors and nothing in this Agreement is to be construed as constituting an agency, partnership, joint venture, relationship of employee and employer or franchisor and franchisee or any other form of association between the parties.
Dispute Resolution
If a dispute arises between the parties, the party claiming the dispute must not commence any court or arbitration proceedings (except where they seek urgent interlocutory relief), unless they have first complied with this clause.
The party must inform the other party in writing of the following:
the nature of the dispute;
the outcome they desire to resolve the dispute, and
the action they believe will settle the dispute.
On receipt of the notice by the other party, both parties will make every effort, without delay and in good faith, to resolve the dispute by mutual negotiation within fourteen (14) Business Days. If the parties are unable to resolve the dispute in that time, the parties must agree on selection of a mediator (if the parties are unable to agree, they agree to request that the President of the Victorian Bar to appoint a mediator) and will be equally liable for the fees and reasonable expenses of the mediator and the cost of the venue of the mediation (to be paid in advance). The parties must each pay their own costs associated with the mediation, which must be held in Melbourne, Victoria, unless the parties agree on a suitable virtual alternative.
The existence of a dispute or the commencement of proceedings does not affect the obligation of the parties to continue to perform their obligations under this Agreement.
This clause survives termination of this Agreement.
Independent Legal Advice
You can seek independent legal advice on these terms and contact us to negotiate changes or amendments to these conditions before proceeding with your order. If you don’t do so, we’ll take it that you’ve read, understood and agreed to be bound by these conditions, and that you consider the conditions fair and reasonable and not against public policy.
Variation
We may make permitted variations to these conditions at any time by updating this document and giving notice to you by posting a copy on the Website, or otherwise notifying you in writing. The variations will take effect thirty (30) days after the date of posting. Your continued access and use of the Course will indicate your acceptance of the variations.
Permitted variations will be limited to those reasonably required by us to protect our legitimate business interests and which do not seriously impact the benefit you receive under this Agreement.
Severance
If any part of these conditions is found to be void or unenforceable by a Court of competent jurisdiction, that part will be severed, and the rest of the Agreement will remain in force.
Assignment
The rights of each party under this Agreement are personal. You may only assign, charge, transfer or otherwise encumber or dispose of any of their rights under this Agreement with our prior written consent, which can only be withheld on reasonable grounds. We may assign, charge, transfer or otherwise encumber or dispose of any of our rights or obligations under this Agreement on giving you notice in writing.
Entire Agreement
The contents of this Agreement constitute the entire agreement between the parties and supersede any prior negotiations, representations, understandings or arrangements made between the parties regarding the subject matter of this Agreement, whether orally or in writing.
Waiver
Except as explicitly set out in this Agreement, a party’s failure or delay to exercise a power or right does not operate as a waiver of that power or right. The exercise of a power or right does not preclude its future exercise or the exercise of any other power or right.
Term
This Agreement commences on the date that it is accepted by you and will remain in force until each party has fulfilled their obligations under this Agreement, unless terminated earlier in accordance with this Agreement or general law.
Termination
We may terminate this Agreement at any time on thirty (30) days’ written notice to you.
Consequences of Termination
If we elect to terminate this Agreement without cause, your access to the Course will expire on the effective date of termination.
We may elect (in our absolute discretion) to provide you with such documents or other items as we determine to provide you with information you can access post-termination (such as copies of Course materials), however we will be under no obligation to do so and failure to do so will not entitle the Customer to any remedy.
If we terminate this Agreement for cause due to a breach of a clause or warranty as contemplated by this Agreement, you agree that we may terminate immediately (or if in our opinion immediate termination is not reasonable, on expiry of such notice as we give in writing) and that access to the Course will be withdrawn on the effective date of termination.
All disclaimers and limitations of liability will survive termination. Any accrued rights or remedies to which either party is entitled will not be affected.
Jurisdiction
As we’re based in Victoria, Australia, these conditions will be governed by the laws of that state. If we do end up in court, you agree that the non-exclusive venue for resolving any dispute will be in the courts of Victoria.
