Terms of service

 

Last updated: 25 July 2026

These Terms of Service apply when you visit or purchase from the inLanguage Boutique website and online store.

Throughout these terms, “ILB”, “we”, “us” and “our” refer to inLanguage Boutique.

By using this website or placing an order, you agree to these terms and any additional terms applying to the product or service purchased.

1. Other applicable terms

Some purchases are also governed by more specific policies:

  • courses and private lessons are subject to our Course Enrolment Terms
  • gift cards and language gifts are subject to our Gift Cards & Language Gifts Terms
  • physical-product returns are subject to our Returns & Refunds Policy
  • delivery and collection are subject to our Shipping & Pickup Policy
  • personal information is handled according to our Privacy Policy.

Where a specific policy applies to a purchase, it forms part of the agreement between the customer and ILB.

2. Using our website

You may use this website for personal, lawful purposes.

You must not:

  • use the website for unlawful or fraudulent activity
  • interfere with its security or operation
  • attempt to gain unauthorised access to the website or customer information
  • introduce malicious code
  • copy or commercially exploit website content without permission
  • provide false or misleading information.

We may restrict access where reasonably necessary to protect the website, ILB or other users.

3. Product and course information

We aim to keep product descriptions, course information, prices, dates, locations and availability accurate.

Occasionally, information may contain an error or require updating.

We may correct an obvious error before accepting or fulfilling an order. Where a material correction affects an order already placed, we will contact the customer and offer an appropriate option, which may include confirming the corrected purchase or receiving a refund.

Images are provided for general presentation. Colours and appearance may vary slightly between screens or physical products.

4. Prices and payment

Prices are shown in Australian dollars.

The total amount payable, including any applicable taxes, shipping charges or discounts, is displayed at checkout.

Payment must be completed using an accepted payment method.

We may change prices at any time, but a later change does not alter the price of an order already accepted.

Discounts and promotional codes are subject to their stated conditions and cannot be combined unless expressly permitted.

5. Orders

Submitting an order is an offer to purchase the selected products or services.

An order is accepted when ILB confirms it, receives valid payment and is able to supply the purchase.

We may contact you where:

  • additional information is required
  • a course or product is unavailable
  • there appears to be an error in the order
  • payment cannot be verified
  • we reasonably suspect fraud or unauthorised use.

If we cannot accept or fulfil an order, we will provide an appropriate refund or alternative.

6. Customer information

You are responsible for providing accurate and complete information when making a purchase or enquiry.

This includes:

  • customer and recipient names
  • email addresses
  • telephone numbers
  • billing and delivery addresses
  • selected language, level, location or course details.

Contact us promptly if information needs to be corrected.

We are not responsible for delays caused by inaccurate or incomplete information supplied by the customer, although we will try to assist where reasonably possible.

7. Accounts

Some website features may allow customers to create an account.

You are responsible for keeping account details and passwords secure.

Please contact us promptly if you believe an account has been accessed without permission.

We may suspend or close an account where it is being used unlawfully, fraudulently or in serious breach of these terms.

8. Courses and lessons

Purchases of group courses, online courses, travel courses and private lessons are governed by our Course Enrolment Terms.

Those terms cover matters including:

  • course suitability
  • transfers
  • missed classes
  • cancellations
  • course changes
  • private-lesson notice periods
  • student conduct.

Customers should review those terms before enrolling.

9. Gift cards and language gifts

Gift cards, gift vouchers and specific language gifts are governed by our Gift Cards & Language Gifts Terms.

Those terms cover:

  • expiry and validity
  • redemption
  • remaining balances
  • specific course and lesson gifts
  • delivery
  • availability
  • exchanges and refunds.

10. Physical products

Physical products may include books, printed vouchers, gift packaging and other language-learning products.

Shipping and pickup are governed by our Shipping & Pickup Policy.

Returns and refunds are governed by our Returns & Refunds Policy.

Customers should check any language, level, title and edition before purchasing a course book.

11. Availability

Courses, lesson times, products and pickup options remain subject to availability.

Displaying a product or course online does not guarantee that it will remain available until checkout is completed and the order has been accepted.

Where an item or service becomes unavailable after purchase, we will contact the customer and offer an appropriate alternative, credit or refund.

12. Intellectual property

The website and its content—including text, branding, graphics, photographs, course materials and downloadable resources—belong to ILB or are used with permission.

You may view and use the website for personal purposes.

You must not copy, reproduce, publish, sell, distribute or commercially use our content without prior written permission.

Course materials supplied to students are for personal educational use and must not be shared, sold or publicly distributed.

13. Third-party services and links

Our website may use or link to third-party services, including Shopify, payment providers, email platforms, delivery providers and external websites.

Third-party services may have their own terms and privacy practices.

We are not responsible for the content or operation of an independent third-party website, but this does not remove any responsibility ILB has for products or services purchased directly from us.

14. Website availability

We aim to keep the website available and functioning properly.

Access may occasionally be interrupted for maintenance, technical problems, security issues or circumstances outside our control.

We may update, change or remove website features where reasonably necessary.

15. Reviews and customer content

Where customers submit reviews, testimonials, images or other content, they must have the right to provide it.

Submitted content must not be unlawful, abusive, misleading or infringe another person’s rights.

We may moderate or remove inappropriate content.

We will not use identifiable customer content for advertising or promotion without permission where permission is required.

16. Prohibited resale and misuse

Products, gift cards, course places and ILB materials are intended for personal use unless otherwise agreed.

They must not be:

  • fraudulently purchased or redeemed
  • commercially resold without permission
  • copied or altered
  • used to misrepresent an association with ILB
  • used for unlawful activity.

We may pause an order or redemption while reasonably investigating suspected fraud or misuse.

17. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms to reflect changes to our website, products, services or legal obligations.

The current version and its last-updated date will be published on this page.

Changes apply from publication and do not retrospectively remove rights already attached to an accepted purchase.

18. Consumer rights

Our products and services come with consumer guarantees that cannot be excluded under the Australian Consumer Law.

Nothing in these terms excludes, restricts or modifies a right or remedy that cannot lawfully be excluded.

Contract terms cannot remove customers’ existing consumer rights, and online purchases receive the same core protections as other purchases.

19. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Victoria, Australia.

Any dispute will be dealt with by the courts or tribunals having jurisdiction in Victoria, subject to any applicable consumer right to bring a claim elsewhere.

20. Contact

For questions about these terms or an order, contact ILB.
