6.2 Your order confirmation email confirms we've received your order. Acceptance happens when we process and dispatch your order (or otherwise confirm acceptance).

11. Returns, refunds and the Australian Consumer Law

11.1 Consumer guarantees. Our goods come with guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.

11.2 Change-of-mind returns. For hygiene and safety reasons, we don't accept returns of opened or used Products for change of mind.

The Promise applies to AM and PM singles, the Pair and the System, bought one-time or on subscription, once per customer or household. See our Refund Policy for the full terms.

11.4 Damaged, faulty or incorrect items. If a Product arrives faulty, damaged in transit or incorrect, email support@thyrobase.com with photos and your order details, ideally within 14 days of delivery, so we can provide a remedy consistent with the Australian Consumer Law. Your rights under the Australian Consumer Law don't depend on this timeframe.

11.5 Approved refunds are made to the original payment method unless the law requires otherwise.
