Terms and Conditions
Welcome to the Mii Cosmetics Australia website. We know you want to get straight to the pretty stuff, but these ‘boring but essential’ terms and conditions apply to your use of, and any purchase made through, this site. Please take the time to read and understand them. These terms and conditions also govern how Mii Cosmetics Australia will interact with you on social media sites.
REVIEW OF THESE TERMS
This Agreement is subject to change from time to time without notice. We recommend you review our terms (and other Customer Policies) for any updates that will apply to your purchase. Accordingly we may, with or without prior notice, terminate any or all of the rights granted by these Terms and Conditions. Each order or transaction will be governed by the Agreement in force on the date of that transaction. Past terms and conditions and Customer Policies can be accessed on request by written notice to info@miicosmetics.com.au.
Your continued use of the site constitutes your acceptance of the Agreement in place on that date. If you do not agree with any updates to the terms, you must immediately cease using the site.
While we strive to maintain the site with accurate information, occasionally there may be typographical errors, inaccuracies, or omissions that may relate to product descriptions, pricing, promotions, ingredients and availability. Mii Cosmetics Australia reserves the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies or omissions and to change or update information or cancel orders if any information on the site is inaccurate at any time without prior notice (including after you have submitted your order).
Please note that any colour swatches are supplied as an indication only. Colour will appear differently based on the screen and settings of the device you are viewing the Site with and other factors beyond Mii Cosmetics Australia’s reasonable control, and therefore cannot be taken as a 100% accurate representation.

PRODUCTS & ORDERS
The products made available on the site, including any samples Mii Cosmetics Australia may provide to you, are for personal use only. You may not resell any products received from Mii Cosmetics Australia.
All orders placed are an offer of purchase and are subject to acceptance by Mii Cosmetics Australia. If for any reason an order is not accepted, a full refund will be given at the earliest possible convenience. Mii Cosmetics Australia reserves the right to refuse an offer for any reason.
Without limiting the above, Mii Cosmetics Australia reserves the right to refuse or reduce the quantity of any orders that it reasonably believes may result in a violation of these terms and conditions, as determined by Mii Cosmetics Australia in its sole discretion. As part of Mii Cosmetics Australia’s order processing procedures, orders may be screened for fraud or other types of unauthorised or illegal activity. Without limiting the above, Mii Cosmetics Australia reserves the right to refuse to process an order due to suspected fraud or unauthorised or illegal activity. If fraud or unauthorised or illegal activity is suspected, Mii Cosmetics Australia may reject your order, or may contact you using the detail provided to confirm your order. Mii Cosmetics Australia also reserves the right to cancel any accounts or refuse to ship to certain addresses due to suspected fraud or unauthorised or illegal activity. We take these measures to protect our customers as well as ourselves from fraud or other unauthorised or illegal activity.
Mii Cosmetics Australia reserves the right to limit the number of promotional offers available for purchase by any one customer.
In the event of any requested products being unavailable, Mii Cosmetics Australia may cancel the transaction and effect a full refund.
PRICES & PAYMENT
All prices listed on the site are in Australian dollars and are inclusive of any GST (as applicable).
The prices indicated may be changed at any time without advance notice. However, the products shall be charged at the rate in force when the customer’s order was validated.
The customer warrants that they have the necessary rights to use the payment card or account with which they choose to pay for their purchases, and that they are fully authorised to use it to pay for the order. The customer also warrants that this card gives access to sufficient funds corresponding to the amount of the order. Should a payment fail, Mii Cosmetics Australia reserves the right to cancel the sale. Goods ordered will not be dispatched until payment for those goods has been received.
PRE-AUTHORISATION
When you make a purchase on the site by credit card, Mii Cosmetics Australia may conduct a pre-authorisation on your credit or debit card for a portion of the purchase price. Once the pre-authorisation is processed, we will then instruct your financial institution to cancel the pre-authorisation. Please note that no funds are taken from your account at pre-authorisation but a temporary ‘hold’ is placed on them. Once we have cancelled the pre-authorisation, it may take up to seven (7) days for your financial institution to release the funds before you are able to access them.
USE OF PRODUCTS
By placing an order with Mii Cosmetics Australia you agree to use the products only for their intended purpose and in accordance with their instructions, precautions and guidelines. If you use the products for any other purpose, you will assume full responsibility for any loss or damage arising out of this use. Should you have any questions about how to use a product, please contact us and we will be happy to help.
We recommend that you check the ingredients of products before purchasing to avoid potential allergic reactions.

LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
To the full extent permitted by law, Mii Cosmetics Australia makes no representations or warranties, express or implied, regarding any matter including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose or use in relation to any product supplied by Mii Cosmetics Australia.

This Agreement will not be read or applied so as to purport to exclude, restrict or modify or have the effect of excluding, restricting or modifying the application in relation to the supply of any products pursuant to these terms of all or any of the provisions of the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth) or the provisions of any other statute, act or law of any State or Territory of the Commonwealth of Australia, or any other applicable territory, which by law cannot be excluded, restricted or modified.
BREACH AND TERMINATION
If, in our reasonable opinion, you breach any provision of the Agreement, Mii Cosmetics Australia may immediately issue a warning, temporarily suspend or permanently prevent your access to all or parts of the site.

CONCLUSION OF TRANSACTION

Your credit card details are never stored on or through the Mii Cosmetics Australia site, and there is no way for these details to be retrieved by us or our staff. However, if you are at all concerned with the potential security of this secure storage process we recommend that you not use this feature.
