Dispute resolution
a. Pre-Arbitration dispute resolution

Attempts to informally resolve any dispute must be exhausted before any formal legal proceedings or arbitrations may be commenced. Most customer concerns can be resolved quickly and to the customer’s satisfaction by emailing customer support at wellness@MOCAHealth.com.au. If such efforts prove unsuccessful in the reasonable opinion of MOCA Health, a party who intends to seek arbitration must first send to the other, by certified mail, a written Notice of Dispute (Notice). The Notice to us should be sent to the address identified in the contact details below.
b. Arbitration
Except for disputes brought in small claims court or tribunal, all disputes between you and MOCA Health arising out of, relating to or in connection with the Site or Services shall be exclusively settled through binding arbitration pursuant to the then-current rules of New South Wales for commercial arbitration. There is no judge or jury in arbitration. Arbitration procedures are simpler and more limited than rules applicable in court and review by a court is limited. This arbitration agreement is subject to New South Wales Law. The arbitrator’s award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, we agree that if MOCA Health makes any future change to this dispute resolution provision, it will not apply to any individual claim(s) that you had already provided notice of to MOCA Health. If the arbitration in this Section is found unenforceable or to not apply for a given dispute, then the proceeding must be brought exclusively in a court of competent jurisdiction in New South Wales, Australia. You hereby accept the exclusive jurisdiction of such court for this purpose.
c. Confidentiality
All aspects of the arbitration proceeding, and any ruling, decision, or award by the arbitrator, will be strictly confidential for the benefit of all parties.
d. Future changes to dispute resolution
Notwithstanding any provision in these Terms of Use to the contrary, MOCA Health agrees that if it makes any future change to this Arbitration Agreement (other than a change to our contact details) while you are a User of the Service, you may reject any such change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) calendar days of the change to our address provided in Contact details section below. By rejecting any future change, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any dispute between us in accordance with the language of this Arbitration Agreement as of the date you first accepted these Terms (or accepted any subsequent changes to these Terms).

We work with our independent partner pharmacies to fulfil your prescription. All goods purchased from our Partner Pharmacies are subject to the following terms and conditions.
Acceptance of Goods
To ensure your privacy and the safe delivery of your products, all of our pharmacy deliveries require a signature upon acceptance.

The sale occurs upon your order leaving the dispensing pharmacy and the title to the goods pass to you at that time. You are the legal owner of the products, are responsible for those products and the products are at your risk upon delivery.
Returns & Refunds Policy
Our website’s returns policy is in addition to your rights under Australian Consumer Law. This policy applies for online orders via our partner pharmacies only.
Unfortunately, refunds may not be provided on prescription items, pharmacy medicines or pharmacist only medicines. This is due to state health regulations as the products are unable to be returned to stock or re-sold after leaving the premises. Storage conditions and therefore, effectiveness of the medication, are unable to be guaranteed once this has occurred.
Please contact MOCA Health if the item is:
• Faulty or is not as described;
• Significantly different to what was advertised;
• The product is unsafe; or
• Not of acceptable quality
MOCA Health and the Partner Pharmacy reserves the right to return the product to the manufacturer for further evaluation. The outcome of this evaluation will be provided and no refund or replacement will be provided if the item was damaged due to misuse or neglect.
No returns, refunds or exchanges will be offered for changes of mind.
Damaged or Incorrect Products
Please contact MOCA Health within 3 days of receipt of the products:
• If your products arrived damaged; or
