Different limitations and exclusions of liability will apply to liability arising as a result of the supply of any products to you, which will be set out in our Terms and Conditions of Sale

13.1 Australian Consumer Law
In these terms:

- "Consumer Guarantee" has the meaning given in the Australian Consumer Law.
The Australian Consumer Law provides Consumers with a number of Consumer Guarantees that cannot be excluded or limited.

- any term, condition, guarantee or warranty which cannot lawfully be excluded or modified by agreement under applicable laws including the Consumer Guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law ("Non-excludable Terms").
Our liability to you in connection with these and the supply of any goods or services (including in respect of any breach of or failure to comply with any Non-excludable Terms, where it is permissible under applicable law to limit liability for such Non-excludable Term) is limited to (at our option):
- in the case of goods – repairing, replacing or supplying equivalent goods, or paying the cost of any of those remedies to you; or
- in the case of services – supplying the services again or paying the cost of having the services supplied again.
