3.1 Orders
Our acceptance of your order will take place when we send you an order confirmation email. At this point, a contract for the sale and purchase of the ordered products will come into existence between you and us.
If we are unable to accept your order we will inform you of this by email and will not charge you for the products. This might be because:

- your billing name and address does not match that of the credit card used for payment;
- we need to deal with technical problems with the product or make minor technical changes; or
- we need to update the product to reflect changes in relevant laws and regulatory requirements.
When we have accepted your order, you will see a confirmation page that provides you with your unique confirmation number and the total amount deducted from your credit or debit card, Paypal account, Afterpay account or Apple Pay. You can print this page for your reference, or alternatively wait until you receive this information in our acceptance email titled "Order # Confirmed". This is your Order Confirmation/Invoice. The email will show all details of items purchased, delivery addresses, delivery options and packaging options, which you can keep for your records.
