Shipping & Refunds Policy

1. Order Confirmation

  1. An email confirmation is sent to your email address after placing your order. Please keep this email as proof of your purchase.

2. Order & Shipment Processing Time

  1. Processing time refers to the time it takes to prepare your order for shipping. After your payment is authorised and verified, all orders are generally processed within 1-2 business days. We will contact you if for some reason there are any delays. Business day means Monday to Friday, except public holidays.
  2. Orders are not processed and dispatched on Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays and public holidays to avoid shipment being stuck in transit.

3. Shipment Locations

  1. We ship domestic, anywhere in Australia, only. We do not ship internationally.

4. Shipment Rate & Delivery Estimates

  1. We endeavour to get your order to you as soon as possible. Delivery times are estimates and commence from the date of shipment, rather than the date of order. Delivery times are to be used as a guide only and are subject to the acceptance and approval of your order. Estimated arrival dates are not guaranteed. Weather delays and other unforeseen circumstances may impact delivery time. Unless there are exceptional circumstances, we make every effort to fulfil your order.
  2. All orders are sent with Australia Post and Express Post with estimated delivery times of 1-2 business days to the flat rate cost of $10.95.
  3. Date of delivery may vary due to carrier shipping practices, delivery location, method of delivery, and the items ordered.
  4. We will not be responsible for wrong shipping address if you provide incorrect information.

5. Warm Weather & Product Care

  1. We use ingredients without adding preservatives and stabilisers which means our products can be heat sensitive. Once the product leave us, we no longer control the temperature and handling in transit. We want you to receive your product in the same way that we packaged and dispatched it but we cannot take responsibility for spoiled product due to warm weather.
  2. All products should be stored away from direct sunlight and below 21C.

6. Shipment Tracking

  1. We aim to provide visibility and transparency throughout the shipment process. For all orders delivered within Australia, you will receive an email with a link to track your shipment once your order is dispatched.

We will arrange to refund or replace the damaged product, provided that you have contacted us within 2 days from the date of receiving the product.

8. Missing or Lost Shipment

  1. There are several reasons why a shipment gets lost or becomes a deliver exception. We’ve found that, more often than not, the shipment is either in the building or with a neighbour. We politely request you to look in common courier hiding spots. Please take a look around and let us know if you find it. If you haven't located your shipment, please contact us at hello@tildaandcacao.com.au.
