We do not guarantee, represent or warrant that your use of our Service will be uninterrupted, timely, secure or error-free.

You agree that from time to time we may remove the Service for indefinite periods of time or cancel the Service at any time, without notice to you.

You expressly agree that your use of, or inability to use, the Service is at your sole risk. The Service and all products and services delivered to you through the Service are (except as expressly stated by us) provided 'as is' and 'as available' for your use, without any representation, warranties or conditions of any kind, either express or implied, including all implied warranties or conditions of merchantability, merchantable quality, fitness for a particular purpose, durability, title, and non-infringement.

In no case shall BYRON FERMENTARY PTY LTD, our founder, sole trader, directors, officers, employees, affiliates, agents, contractors, interns, Suppliers, service providers or licensors be liable for any injury, loss, claim, or any direct, indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages of any kind, including, without limitation lost profits, lost revenue, lost savings, loss of data, replacement costs, or any similar damages, whether based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability or otherwise, arising from your use of any of the Service or any products procured using the Service, or for any other claim related in any way to your use of the Service or any product, including, but not limited to, any errors or omissions in any content, or any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of the use of the Service or any content (or product) posted, transmitted, or otherwise made available via the Service, even if advised of their possibility. Because some states, countries or jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or the limitation of liability for consequential or incidental damages, in such states or jurisdictions, our liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

The Australian Consumer Law sets out consumer rights that are called consumer guarantees. These include a customers’ rights to a replacement or refund as well as compensation for damages and loss and being able to cancel a faulty service. BYRON FERMENTARY PTY LTD’s Returns Policy explains its approach to being able to accept exchanges and returns – the Policy can be found at byronfermentary.com.au/returns. Where it is permitted to do so, BYRON FERMENTARY PTY LTD limits its liability for breach of any implied warranty, condition or undertaking which cannot be excluded, at the option of the customer, to:

(i) in the case of products which are goods, the replacement of the product(s) or the supply of equivalent product(s), the payment of the cost of replacing the product(s) or acquiring equivalent product(s), the repair of such product(s), or the payment of the cost of having the product(s) repaired; and,

(ii) in the case of services, the supply of the services again or the payment of the cost of having services supplied again.

15. ADDITIONAL TERMS

(i) Severability

In the event that any provision of these Terms of Service is determined to be unlawful, void or unenforceable, such provision shall nonetheless be enforceable to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, and the unenforceable portion shall be deemed to be severed from these Terms of Service.
