Fair Use Policy
This Fair Use Policy applies to all frogs.org.au customers, placement and delivery of orders, use of our website and availability of goods and services or promotions.
We reserve the right to change the terms of the Fair Use Policy from time to time.
It is important to frogs.org.au that all customers can access a fair share of our Services. Accordingly, we have developed the fair use policies listed here.
- All promotions or services advertised by frogs.org.au are subject to the Fair Use Policy.
- In the case we deem your use unfair we may take action including but not limited to: contacting you to discuss, cancelling or refunding your order, denying access to promotional benefits, blocking, holding or limiting your account or IP address or terminating your account with us.
- We may deem your use unreasonable if you:
- Try to circumvent purchase limits by placing multiple orders (limits – on the rare occasions we have them – exist to help everyone get at least some supply when supply is limited).
- Use unfair means to access promotions for example
- Running multiple accounts for a single user
- Cancelling and renewing accounts
- Running multiple accounts in one family or address or IP (subject to our consideration).
- Any other activity that we deem is aimed at excessive unfair access to rewards and discounts offered by frogs.org.au.
What is unreasonable use?
It is an unreasonable use where your use of our services is reasonably considered by us to be excessive, fraudulent or to adversely affect supply to, or other customers’ use of or access to frogs.org.au services.
Fair use does not by itself create limits. If stock is not limited online you are free to order any quantity that is allowed.
Promotions are not limited – except as specified in each promotion – but fair use covers deliberate attempts to unfairly access such promotions which will be determined at our discretion.
