1.1 Electronic Funds Transfer
a) We accept electronic funds transfer. This is the preferred method of payment.
b) Funds must be transferred immediately within the time frame advised by us as per the order confirmation email that you will automatically get once you place the order. Five percent of the total order amount must be paid within one hour of placing the order. The balance 95 percent must be paid within 24 hours of placing the order or earlier.
c) If funds are not transferred within the required time frame, as referred to in clause 1.1b, the order price will expire and the client will agree to pay any difference in the order price and the actual sale price for precious metals if the price has gone up due to market volatility (this is not applicable if precious metal prices have gone down).
d) You need to send us proof that you have electronically wire transferred the funds. This can be done by any one of the two methods: If you are sending the funds over the counter in a bank, the bank will give you proof that your funds have been electronically transferred to our account. You can then send us a scanned copy of that document via email. If you are sending the funds via internet banking, you can take a Print Screen of the electronic funds transfer confirmation (located on your computer keyboard as “PrtSc” or “Print Screen”) and paste that to a MS-Word document, showing that the funds have been transferred to our account. You can then send that document to us via e-mail.

Any non-payment will result in Gold De Royale taking legal action against the customer in order to recoup the money.
 
1.5 Customer Identification Requirements

In order for us to “know our customers”, it is mandatory that all customers who buy/sell bullion with Gold De Royale provide identification documents for an Australian Transaction Reports and Analysis Centre (AUSTRAC) identity Check.

Online identity verification via your smartphone for customers in Australia

The online identity verification is the recommended approach for all customers based in Australia. If you like to have your identify verified via your smartphone, please email us your full name and mobile phone number. You need to have the following documents for the online identity verification process:

Two identity documents: the first document must be a photo identity document which is a Passport or a Driver’s licence. The second document can either be another photo identity document or a non-photo identity document like your Medicare Card or Birth Certificate or Marriage Certificate or Change of Name Certificate.

As part of the online identify verification process, the app will also take a photo of yourself to verify your identity.  The entire online identify verification takes less than 5 minutes.

Offline identity verification

For customers who are not able to do the online identity verification, we would need the following documents one from category A and one from category B:

Category A

Birth certificate (not an extract)

Current Australian passport

Australian citizenship certificate

Current international passport

Category B

Current drivers’ licence (government-issued)

Public employee photo ID card (government-issued)

Department of Veterans' Affairs card

Centrelink pensioner concession card

Current tertiary education institution photo ID

Proof of age card (government-issued)

Medicare card or private health care card

Council rates notice

Australian Tax Office assessment

As part of the offline customer identity verification process, we require the customer to email us a selfie photo taken by their smartphone or by their computer camera. Please ensure your face is fully visible and in focus. Please remove hats, headphones, glasses, and other things that can make you harder to recognize. Avoid dark rooms and strong background light when taking your selfie photo. Please note we will only accept clear selfie photos.

For business or self-managed super fund, the following certified documents are required in addition to the identity check: copy of the business registration. For self-managed super fund, certified copy of the trust deed showing names of all trustees.

For purposes of verification, we only accept certified copies of documents certified by any of these occupations: Justice of Peace, Commissioner of Affidavits, Commissioner of Declarations, Police Officer, or certified from any Australia Post Office. All certified documents that you send to us as a true copy must have the “official seal” of the person that is certifying them. If it only has the person’s name and signature and comes without their official seal, we will not accept that document and you would have to redo the certification again with their official seal. All documents must be in English. Clients can post or email (colour copies) their documents to us.

Gold De Royale may require additional information about the customer when purchasing bullion as part of its risk management strategy. The customer agrees to comply with this additional requirement if requested by Gold De Royale.

When identity documents are provided by the customer to Gold De Royale, you provide us with consent to verify your identity through a third party as part of  electronic identity verification service. This enables us to meet our regulatory requirements under the Anti-Money Laundering and Counter-Terrorism Financing Act 2006 (AML/CTF Act). Gold De Royale verifies details provided by you such as your name, date of birth and/or address and where relevant, your identification documents by engaging an electronic verification service provider who provides us with an assessment of the accuracy of the information.

Documents must be posted to The Compliance Officer, Gold De Royale Pty Ltd, PO Box 971, Spring Hill, Queensland 4004. Certified copies of documents and the selfie photo can be emailed to customercare@goldderoyale.com.au

1.6 Order Pricing

1.7 Order Fulfillment
Once an order is placed by the customer and Gold De Royale finds out that it cannot fulfill the customer’s order due to market conditions (bullion not available) at any point in time, Gold De Royale will cancel the order and refund the customer the funds paid.

2. Exchange/Money-Back Policy
Changing your mind about the purchase is not a legitimate reason for an exchange. We are more than happy to guide you prior to placing an order. When in doubt, please do contact us via email before placing an order. We will NOT accept any returns or exchanges for the following reasons: You have changed your mind; you are having financial problems; you have found a different item which you prefer; you have found the same item at a lower price somewhere else; you did not read our Purchase Terms and Conditions before placing the order.

3. Shipping, Transit Insurance and Delivery Policy

3.1 Shipping Costs
a) Shipping costs are calculated before you checkout for some orders. 
b) International shipping charges: Available on quote. Email us if you would like to know our international shipping charges. International shipping charges are different from domestic charges. Packages are shipped using FedEx. Please note that international shipping charges are expensive.

3.2 Transit Insurance Conditions
a) Transit insurance is optional based on your purchase. If you do not select transit insurance as part of your purchase order, your order WILL NOT be insured when shipped. 
b) Once you are advised that your order has been shipped, your purchase order will be delivered except in cases where the address supplied is incorrect, illegible, incomplete or if the client is away or has moved or if you do not collect the package on time (package must be collected on the same day of arrival), in which case you will be liable (will void transit insurance cover). Gold De Royale is not liable under any circumstances if you have nominated someone else to collect the package on your behalf or someone else collects it without your authorization or using fake identity or the address is a non-residential address or is collected by a third party (will void transit insurance cover).
c) Risk passes to the client upon collection of the bullion by the nominated shipping method. It is the client’s responsibility to arrange insurance from this point onward. The client acknowledges that from the time of delivery the client will have the necessary insurance to guard against any loss which may occur in relation to the bullion from such time. Gold De Royale provides no advice regarding the terms of any insurance, the suitability of the insurance for the client or the eligibility of the client to claim under the insurance policy.
d) Due to any unforeseen circumstances, if the bullion order that we ship to you gets lost or stolen during the transit period, Gold De Royale will file a claim with our insurer. The client will be paid the money that was used to purchase the bullion from us once we receive the money from the insurer (it could take up to 6 months or more). Any transit insurance claims for lost goods must be made within 3 business days of dispatch from Gold De Royale. If a transit loss occurs, all bullion items are insured to the bullion purchase price minus insurance, shipping and credit card surcharge cost.

3.3 Shipping Conditions 
a) Packages going to high risk locations, remote locations or high value packages, a separate quote will be provided to the customer.
b) Customer's bullion stored in our vault cannot be transferred directly to your vault under any situations. Gold De Royale can only ship your bullion to your residential address.
c) Customer's cannot collect their bullion in-person. We can only ship them to your residential address. Customer's bullion cannot be shipped to a third party. 
d) Customer's bullion stored in our vault, shipping charges are different and will be provided as a separate quote.         

  
3.4 International Shipping & Insurance
All duties and taxes must be paid by the customer when your order arrives in your country of destination for delivery. Please consult your local customs department for more information on duty and tax rates if they are applicable. If your order is returned to Gold De Royale due to your refusal to pay duties or taxes, or if the shipping carrier was unable to deliver your order, you will be responsible for any return shipping fees, additional duties, or applicable taxes for returning the package back to Gold De Royale. In addition, if your package is returned to Gold De Royale, we will not reship your order until we are paid in full for any return shipping costs, duties, or taxes we have had to pay in advance for you, as well as any subsequent reship fees back to you. International shipping returns are very costly and we strongly suggest making yourself aware of any duties or taxes before orders are placed with Gold De Royale to avoid any problems. In addition, we recommend making yourself available to the delivery company so your package is not returned to Gold De Royale, subjecting yourself to unnecessary taxes, duties, shipping costs or delays. All international shipments must be cleared from customs by the customer on the same day when the package arrives at the country of destination. Failure to clear the package on the same day will void the transit insurance cover on the package and the customer will be liable for any losses if the package is tampered, lost or stolen.

3.5 Delivery Time Period for Bullion Orders
All orders placed with Gold De Royale will be dispatched as soon as possible. Due to the high demand for Swiss precious metals and for London Bullion Market Association (LBMA) accredited precious metals, orders may take up to eighteen weeks for delivery on some occasions, as demand outweighs supply. Gold De Royale will not be liable for any late deliveries. While Gold De Royale strives to dispatch all orders quickly, this may not be possible owing to a high market demand for bullion. Gold De Royale will not be liable for any claims associated with late deliveries.

3.6 Supply Interrupted
If Gold De Royale is directly or indirectly prevented from making supply or otherwise performing an obligation, by reason of events beyond its reasonable control including any force majeure event including drought limiting or restricting availability of input products of required quality, act of God, fire, earthquake, flood, lightning strike, natural disaster, mechanical or electrical failure, industrial action or dispute, lockout, pandemic,  pandemic lockdown, epidemic, war or act of war (whether declared or not), terrorism, revolution, malicious damage, sabotage, civil unrest or disturbance, or action or inaction of any foreign or domestic government or third party, its obligations are suspended while it is prevented from so doing. Gold De Royale will use all reasonable endeavors to terminate the event giving rise to delay, but that will not include the settling of an industrial dispute on disadvantageous terms. In such circumstances, Gold De Royale will cancel the customer’s order and refund the customer the funds paid.
 
4. GST
In this clause, the following definitions apply:
a) GST has the same meaning as in the GST Act.
b) GST Act means the A New Tax System (Goods and Services Tax) Act 1999.
c) Taxable Supply has the same meaning as in the GST Act.
d) Tax Invoice has the same meaning as in the GST Act.
