Customer Acknowledgement
The Customer acknowledges agreement with these Terms and Conditions of Sale by the placement of an order to purchase products from Tanand Pty Ltd trading as Geoconnect.
Geoconnect is a trading name of Tanand Pty Ltd. This contract of sale is between the entity named on the invoice (the “Customer“) and Tanand Pty Ltd (“Geoconnect” “We” or “Us”).
All goods are supplied on these terms and conditions only and no person in the employment or otherwise as agent for Geoconnect has any authority to supply goods on any other terms and conditions or to vary these terms and conditions in any way whatsoever. Previous dealings shall not vary or negate these terms and conditions in any respect.
Return or Exchange of Goods
The Customer has specific legal rights under the Australian Consumer Law in respect of goods and services purchased from Geoconnect (“Consumer Guarantees”). More information in relation to the Consumer Guarantees may be found at http://www.accc.gov.au.
In the event that any products or services purchased from Us do not meet the Consumer Guarantees, Geoconnect will gladly meet its obligations to provide a refund, repair or replacement at its own expense as required by the Australian Consumer Law.
Geoconnect may in its absolute discretion choose to refund, credit, replace or repair goods returned within a reasonable time (generally 14 days) for any reason other than breach of the Consumer Guarantees, provided the goods are in original condition, current version and not a special order, hardware, peripheral or clearance item. In these circumstances, we may make our best effort to arrange exchange with the manufacturer or accept the goods back for resale. In this case, if the return is authorised by Geoconnect, a restocking fee of up to 25% may apply.
Please note that except in the case where a Consumer Guarantee is breached, where the plastic seal or shrink wrap of a software package is broken, the return or exchange cannot be accepted due to copyright and licensing restrictions. In this case we will help the Customer obtain a working copy. Also “special order” goods are goods that are not in stock at the time of an order and therefore especially ordered to meet a client order.
Exchange of computer hardware and peripherals is sometimes not possible due to third party constraints on Geoconnect. In the event of a breach of the Consumer Guarantees, Geoconnect will however gladly provide a refund.
Unless there is a breach of the Consumer Guarantees, the right to refuse the return or exchange of products is at the discretion of Geoconnect and a restocking fee of up to 25% may apply to returned goods
Warranty Information
In addition to the Consumer Guarantees, all products sold by Geoconnect are covered by the manufacturers’ warranty that accompanies the product. Geoconnect makes no additional or independent warranty in addition to the Consumer Guarantees or those offered by the manufacturer of a product.

The goods shall be at the Customers risk at the point of dispatch from Geoconnect. The Customer, upon taking delivery of the goods, shall immediately examine the goods and give written notice to Geoconnect of any defect within five (5) days of such date, failing which the goods shall be deemed to have been delivered in good order and condition and accepted by the Customer.
