4.          Orders

Order constitutes offer

By placing an order through this site, you make an irrevocable offer to us to purchase the products that you have selected pursuant to these Website Terms of Use. Information contained in this site constitutes an invitation to treat only. No information in this site constitutes an offer by us to supply any products to you – however, the Company will endeavour to supply your selected products to you.

We will not commence processing any order made through this site unless and until:

  • payment for the order has been received by us in full; and
  • the order has passed our internal validation procedures, which are undertaken in order to verify the bona fides of each order for the purpose of preventing credit card and other fraud.

We reserve the right at our discretion to:

  • at any time prior to your order being accepted in accordance with these Website Terms of Use, cancel all or part of your order; and
  • at any time:
  • refuse to provide products to you;
  • terminate your access to this site; and/or
  • remove or edit any content on this site.

Acceptance of orders

Acceptance of each order will take place if and when the Company ships the requested items to you, at the time at which the items are despatched by the Company. Title to, and risk in, the items will pass from the Company to you at that time. After the items have been sent, we will send you an email confirming that shipment has taken place.

5.          Prices

The Company reserves the right to change the prices for products displayed in this site at any time before you place an order.

Shipping costs

Shipping costs will depend upon the location for delivery and the items purchased and are shown separately during checkout.

GST

Unless otherwise expressly stated, all amounts payable through your use of this site are expressed to be inclusive of GST. For these purposes, the term "GST" has the meaning given to it in the A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999 (Cth).

Payment for orders placed through this site may be made by credit card processed online using secure payment gateways.

Secure payment gateways

The Company uses various third-party payment gateways for its secure online payment transactions. Payments made through various third-party payment gateways are subject to the third-parties’ own terms and conditions and privacy policy.

Unless you expressly consent otherwise, we do not see or have access to any personal information that you may provide to the third-party payment gateways, other than information that is required in order to process your order and deliver your purchased items to you (eg, your name, email address and billing/postal address).

Credit and debit card payments

All major credit cards and debit cards are accepted. Please note that we may be unable to accept credit cards issued by banks outside of Australia in some cases. Additional transaction fees may apply if paying by credit card, in which case the additional charges will be specified at checkout.

Except as expressly provided otherwise in these Website Terms of Use, all amounts paid through this site are non-refundable. Further information on the steps that the Company will take to remedy any breach of any non-excludable condition or warranty/guarantee is provided under the heading "Remedies limited" in these Website Terms of Use below.

Security

While our website hosting providers employ secure technology for transactions with our customers, we will not be responsible for any damages, including consequential losses (whether direct or indirect), that may be suffered by a customer whose credit or debit card or bank account information is used in a fraudulent or unauthorised manner by any person other than the Company.

The Company may request further information from you, such as a copy of your credit card and/or other identification documentation, as part of our internal validation procedures. These procedures help protect bank and credit card account holders from online fraud. Until your order has passed our internal fraud prevention checks, your order will remain on pending status. If further information is requested and you do not provide the requested information within such time as the Company considers appropriate at its discretion, your order will be cancelled and, if your payment has been received, it will be refunded back to you.

7.          Contacting us about privacy

If you would like more information about the way we manage personal information that we hold about you, or are concerned that we may have breached your privacy, please contact us by email to info@myraswim.com or by post.

Access to your personal information

In most cases, you may have access to personal information that we hold about you. We will handle requests for access to your personal information in accordance with the Australian Privacy Principles. All requests for access to your personal information must be directed to the Privacy Officer by email using the email address provided above or by writing to us at our postal address. We will deal with all requests for access to personal information as quickly as possible. Requests for a large amount of information, or information that is not currently in use, may require further time before a response can be given. We may charge you a fee for access if a cost is incurred by us in order to retrieve your information, but in no case will we charge you a fee for your application for access.

In some cases, we may refuse to give you access to personal information that we hold about you. This may include circumstances where giving you access would:

  • be unlawful (eg, where a record that contains personal information about you is subject to a claim for legal professional privilege by one of our contractual counterparties);
  • have an unreasonable impact on another person’s privacy; or
  • prejudice an investigation of unlawful activity.

We may also refuse access where the personal information relates to existing or anticipated legal proceedings, and the information would not be accessible by the process of discovery in those proceedings.

If we refuse to give you access, we will provide you with reasons for our refusal.

Correcting your personal information

We will amend any personal information about you that is held by us and that is inaccurate, incomplete or out of date if you request us to do so. If we disagree with your view about the accuracy, completeness or currency of a record of your personal information that is held by us, and you ask us to associate with that record a statement that you have a contrary view, we will take reasonable steps to do so.

8.          Storage and security of your personal information

We are committed to maintaining the confidentiality of the information that you provide us and we will take all reasonable precautions to protect your personal information from unauthorised use or alteration. In our business, personal information may be stored both electronically (on our computer systems and with our website hosting provider) and in hard-copy form. Firewalls, anti-virus software and email filters, as well as passwords, protect all of our electronic information. Likewise, we take all reasonable measures to ensure the security of hard-copy information.

You may click-through to third party websites from this site, in which case we recommend that you refer to the privacy statement of the websites you visit. This Privacy Policy applies to this site only and the Company assumes no responsibility for the content of any third party websites.

Re-marketing

We may use the Google AdWords and/or Facebook re-marketing services to advertise on third party websites to previous visitors to this site based upon their activity on this site. This allows us to tailor our marketing to better suit your needs and to only display advertisements that are relevant to you.

10.       GDPR

The Company welcomes the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) of the European Union (“EU”) as an important step forward in streamlining data protection globally.  We intend to comply with the data handling regime laid out in the GDPR in respect of any personal information of data subjects in the EU that we may obtain.

GDPR rights

The requirements of the GDPR are broadly similar to those set out in the Privacy Act and include the following rights:

  • you are entitled to request details of the information that we hold about you and how we process it. For EU residents, we will provide this information for no fee;
  • you may also have a right to:
  • have that information rectified or deleted;
  • restrict our processing of that information;
  • stop unauthorised transfers of your personal information to a third party;
  • in some circumstances, have that information transferred to another organisation; and
  • lodge a complaint in relation to our processing of your personal information with a local supervisory authority; and
  • where we rely upon your consent as our legal basis for collecting and processing your data, you may withdraw that consent at any time.

If you object to the processing of your personal information, or if you have provided your consent to processing and you later choose to withdraw it, we will respect that choice in accordance with our legal obligations.  However, please be aware that:

  • such objection or withdrawal of consent could mean that we are unable to provide our services to you, and could unduly prevent us from legitimately providing our services to other customers subject to appropriate confidentiality protections; and
  • even after you have chosen to withdraw your consent, we may be able to continue to keep and process your personal information to the extent required or otherwise permitted by law, in particular:
  • to pursue our legitimate interests in a way that might reasonably be expected as part of running our business and which does not materially impact on your rights, freedoms or interests; and
  • in exercising and defending our legal rights and meeting our legal and regulatory obligations.

Storage and processing by third parties

Data that we collect about you may be stored or otherwise processed by third party services with data centres based outside the EU, such as Google Analytics, Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, Apple, etc and online relationship management tools.  We consider that the collection and such processing of this information is necessary to pursue our legitimate interests in a way that might reasonably be expected (eg, to analyse how our customers use our services, develop our services and grow our business) and which does not materially impact your rights, freedom or interests.

The Company requires that all third parties that act as “data processors” for us provide sufficient guarantees and implement appropriate technical and organisational measures to secure your data, only process personal data for specified purposes and have committed themselves to confidentiality.

Duration of retention of your data

We will only keep your data for as long as is necessary for the purpose for which it was collected, subject to satisfying any legal, accounting or reporting requirements.  At the end of any retention period, your data will either be deleted completely or anonymised (for example, by aggregation with other data so that it can be used in a non-identifiable way for statistical analysis and business planning).  In some circumstances, you can ask us to delete your data.

Keeping your information up-to-date

To ensure that your personal information is accurate and up to date, please promptly advise us of any changes to your information by contacting our data protection officer by email at info@myraswim.com or by post.

11.       Changes to this Privacy Policy

From time to time, it may be necessary for us to revise this Privacy Policy. Any changes will be in accordance with any applicable requirements under the Privacy Act and the Australian Privacy Principles. We may notify you about changes to this Privacy Policy by posting an updated version on this site.

Replacement or credit as remedy

If you are not satisfied with any item that you receive from us, please let us know as soon as possible as we may be able to replace the item for you. In some circumstances, we may provide a credit instead of replacement at our discretion. 

If you come across a fault in your item which you deem to be a manufacturing fault and not a customer care fault. Please contact our customer service team at info@myraswim.com with a photo so we can assess the issue. 

We do not offer exchanges. In the case you'd like to re-order the same item, just a different variant, you will be given a store credit for the price of the garment to repurchase your correct items. You'll do this by placing a new order online.

Store Credit

A store credit will be emailed to you in the form of a gift card, which you can use to repurchase your desired piece. Store Credits have no expiry.

Please be aware that you will receive the store credit for the amount you paid for your piece, minus shipping fees. If you have any issues, please email info@myraswim.com.

Sale or discounted items

Only full priced items are eligible for refunds in accordance with our returns policy. Items marked "Sale" or discounted with a promotional code are not eligible for a refund, only exchange or store credit - no exceptions. Items bought with a discount code will be issued a store credit for exchange, we do not allow a further discount code to repurchase.

All skin products, accessories and towels are final sale items.

Full priced items are classed as swimwear and clothing items from our website that have not been discounted in any way (including first purchase discount).

Afterpay

If you choose to return an AfterPay order that is full priced, you will receive a full refund via Afterpay. If you return an AfterPay order where you purchased sale items or used a discount code on your order, you will be issued store credit for the full amount of the unwanted item. Please note that your personal agreement with Afterpay will still stand, and you will continue to pay any scheduled repayments.

What you must return to us

To receive a refund, replacement or credit, you must first return the unworn item to us along with its original packaging with the hygiene liner still attached, Myra Swim tags, and garment bag. We can refuse to refund, replace or credit your items if the hygiene stickers and tags have been removed or tampered with.

Returning items within the first 7 Business Days of receipt of item

If you return the item within the first 7 Business Days after the date of delivery to you, then we will assess the circumstances (including analysing the returned item, if considered appropriate by us) to ascertain whether or not the Company is at fault and:

  • (Company at fault) if we consider that the Company is at fault, we will provide a full replacement of the returned item (or a credit at our discretion); or
  • (Company not at fault) if we consider that the Company is not at fault, then:
  • if the item has been returned in its original condition and as per the Returns Policy, we will provide a full credit of the items; or
  • if the item has been returned broken, damaged, tarnished or worn, we will not provide any replacement or credit.

Returns & exchanges are processed within 2 Business Days after item is received and checked. A confirmation email will be sent when your item is refunded or exchanged and returned.

Business Days

In this returns policy, "Business Day" means a day (other than a Saturday, Sunday or public holiday) when banks in Brisbane, Queensland, Australia are open for business.

Shipping and customs costs

In all cases, you must pay the costs involved in shipping the returned product back to the Company. All refunds and returns are given from the full price value of the item minus the shipping cost of the order.

Please note we are not liable for customs clearance fees in your country and holding times of packages by customs in your country. If you choose to reject/refuse delivery due to customs fees there will be a $25 return fee deducted from your refund to cover return shipping due to your refusal.

All items are to be signed for by DHL. If you are not home to receive your DHL package, have no one else to sign for the item and have not organised an alternative way to collect your package from DHL, and your item is returned to us this $25 fee will occur. We will not pay for your return shipping this is the customers responsibility.

Return Fees

We reserve the right to refuse returns and not honour refunds on items that have been worn, stained/soiled, laundered or altered in any way. This includes such marks as bodily fluids, deodorant stains & removed/tampered with liners.

In the occurrence of garments returned within these conditions, we will void your refund/store credit. Returning of the garment back to the customer will incur a return shipping cost to be paid by the customer.

This policy is set in place due to swimwear being classified as ‘underwear’ & due to hygiene reasons once garments are not resalable, they have to be destroyed, which is a loss to our company, unhygienic and harmful for the environment.

If garment bags are not returned, an AUD$10.00 fee is deducted from your store credit/refund. If you order two or more items and it comes in 1 bag, and you return one, you may keep the garment bag. Please note this on your returns form.

Penalty For Soiled Returned Item

AUD$10.00 return shipping label fee will be applied to your return.
