Terms and Conditions

In these terms and conditions, "we", "us" and "our" means Golf Australia Ltd (ABN 54 118 151 894) and the Professional Golfers Association of Australia (ABN 46 127 641 829)

Please read these terms and conditions carefully as they apply to your use of this website at "www.mygolf.org.au" (the "Website"). By accessing or using this Website (including by purchasing any products or services advertised on this Website) you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions.

In addition to the terms and conditions set out in this document, other terms of use or conditions may apply to your use of this Website, parts of this Website, or services offered in connection with your use of this Website. By using those parts of this Website or using those services you also agree to be bound by those additional terms.

We may at any time vary these terms and conditions by publishing the varied terms and conditions on this Website. Where we do so, we will include a notice on this Website notifying you that these terms and conditions have been revised.

Offers

From time to time, this Website may display information about offers (“Offers”) made available by various golf clubs and other third parties (“Providers”).

It is important that you understand that when you place an order for an Offer on this Website, you are placing an order with a particular Provider, and not us. In some instances, we may make an Offer available to purchase through functionality provided on this Website, including by taking orders and collecting payment for an Offer. Where we do so, we are acting as the agent of the Provider and not on our own behalf.

Please be aware that some Providers make their Offer available to you on additional terms and conditions (“Provider Terms”). Where this occurs, these Provider Terms may be displayed on, referred to or linked from this Website or may be set out on the Provider’s own website or other documentation (for example a golf club’s standard terms and conditions of membership).

You should read any Provider Terms applicable to any Offer you purchase or are interested in purchasing. By purchasing an Offer, you agree to be bound by any relevant Provider Terms. However, please note that we are not a party to, and have no obligations under, any contract that may arise as a result of the purchase of any Offer (including any Provider Terms) as such contract will only be between you and the relevant Provider.

We make no representations to you with respect to any Offer, including whether or not the Offer represents good value for money.

Australian customers only

This Website is only intended for use by customers in Australia. Orders for Offers will only be accepted by customers who provide a local delivery address for their credit or debit card in Australia.

Payment

The person making payment for any Offer on this Website (the “Purchaser”) must be at least 18 years of age. By making any payment for any Offer the Purchaser warrants to us that they are at least 18 years of age.
All amounts on this Website are stated in Australian dollars and include Australian GST (where applicable) unless otherwise stated.

Any order placed through this Website is an offer by you to purchase the particular Offer.

Unless otherwise stated in the Provider Terms, payment for any Offer ordered on this Website must be made by credit card or debit card online and at the time of order. The credit or debit cards that are accepted from time to time will be described on this Website. A surcharge may apply for the use of certain credit or debit cards, and where this is the case this will also be described on this Website.

When you make an order for an Offer, the amount debited will be the amount shown on our purchase page prior to you clicking the "Pay Now" (or any similar) button on that page. However, your credit or debit card provider may charge you additional fees and charges.

Redeeming purchased Offer

Once the Purchaser receives confirmation from either us (on behalf of the Provider) or the Provider that their order has been accepted, the Offer is redeemable from the Provider.

Please be aware that resale, reproduction or trade in any Offer is prohibited, however the Purchaser may provide the purchased Offer to another person for redemption as a gift (unless otherwise stated on this Website).

The person seeking to redeem an Offer (“the Redeemer”) must provide some proof of purchase of the Offer to the Provider (for example, a receipt of payment or confirmation of purchase printout) in order to redeem the Offer. The particular form of proof of purchase required may be set out in this Website and/or as part of any Provider Terms.

Please note that the Provider may request the Redeemer to provide photo ID when redeeming the Offer. A record and/or copy of this photo ID may also be retained by the Provider to minimise the risk of fraudulent credit or debit card usage and for verification purposes with your credit or debit card provider in the event of a dispute. In addition, you also consent to us providing certain information about you, including your contact details, to the Provider.

Cancellation of orders for Offers

The Provider may not accept an order placed by you for an Offer if there has been any pricing error during the order process (including if an incorrect price was mistakenly displayed on this Website). The Provider may also cancel a previously accepted order for an Offer if the Provider suspects that you are acting fraudulently (such as using a credit or debit card without proper authorisation) or in breach of either these terms and conditions or the Provider Terms or you are otherwise unable to comply with the Provider Terms.

Changes and refunds policy

If you want to change any details of any order for an Offer you have made through this Website, you must contact our Customer Service Centre – click here for contact details. We will do our best to assist you, but cannot guarantee that changes can be made. Golf Australia will oversee the management of change requests where necessary.

When ordering an Offer please choose carefully as we do not normally allow changes or give refunds, including if you change your mind or make a wrong decision.

In extenuating circumstances you may request a refund or a change, however you must do so within 5 days of receiving confirmation of your order.

If we do permit a change or provide a refund, please be aware that additional fees and charges may be applied by the Provider of the Offer, including cancellation fees.

In addition, please be aware that Offers purchased online include a transaction fee which is payable at the time of purchase. If a refund is provided, any transaction fees are not refunded.

If you have any complaints in relation to any Offer you purchased through this Website you should contact the relevant Provider directly.
