The Customer also has a right under the Australian Consumer Law (“ACL”) and nothing in these GTC will limit or affect the Customer’s rights as a consumer under the ACL, for example to obtain a remedy because the Product does not meet the acceptable quality guarantee under the ACL.
7.1. Change of Mind Returns Policy: If the Customer has changed his/her mind about a Product purchased from the Site, the Customer can return that Product to Ceva within 30 days of purchase and Ceva will refund the original purchase price of that Product provided the Product is returned in its original condition and packaging and is re-saleable.
The Customer can return a Product by sending a return request to Ceva's customer service department by filling out the online form at the following address https://feliway.com.au/pages/contact-us. The Product must be returned in its original condition and packaging with the tax invoice received by the Customer with the online order (or another proof of purchase acceptable to Ceva).

Refunds for orders paid by debit or credit card will be made via the debit or credit card used for payment via the Stripe interface or via Apple Pay, at no cost to the Customer.
The return of a Product by a Customer who has subscribed to a Recurrent Order shall constitute the cancellation of the Customer's Recurrent Order and Recurring Product(s).
