Returns & Exchanges

Returns & Refund Policy
Prology
1. Overview

This Returns & Refund Policy applies to all products purchased from Prology.

We are committed to providing high-quality IT equipment. This policy outlines your rights and obligations regarding returns, refunds, and exchanges.

This policy operates in addition to your rights under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL).

2. Australian Consumer Law (mandatory rights)

Nothing in this policy excludes or limits your rights under the ACL. Under the ACL:

  • You are entitled to a repair, replacement, or refund if a product has a major failure
  • You are entitled to a repair or replacement if the product has a minor fault

Products must:

  • Be of acceptable quality
  • Match description and specifications
  • Be fit for their intended purpose

3. Return authorisation (RMA required)

All returns must be approved in advance via a Return Merchandise Authorisation (RMA). To request an RMA:

  • Contact Prology support
  • Provide proof of purchase
  • Provide product serial number and fault description
Returns sent without approval may be rejected.

4. Faulty, damaged, or incorrect products

If your product is faulty, damaged in transit, or incorrect (wrong item supplied), you must notify us within 7 days of delivery.

We will assess the issue and offer repair, replacement, or refund as required under the ACL. Products may need to be returned for inspection and tested before a resolution is provided.


5. Change of mind returns

Prology may (at its discretion) accept change-of-mind returns under the following conditions:

  • Request made within 14 days of delivery
  • Product is unused, unopened, and in original packaging
  • All accessories, manuals, and components are included

If accepted:

  • A restocking fee (up to 20%) may apply
  • Customer is responsible for return shipping costs
Change-of-mind returns are not a legal right and may be refused.

6. Non-returnable items

The following items are not eligible for return, unless faulty:

  • Opened or used products
  • Custom-built or configured systems (e.g. servers)
  • Software, licenses, or digital products
  • Special order or non-stock items
  • Clearance or end-of-life products

This aligns with industry practices where certain goods cannot be resold once opened.


7. Return condition requirements

All returned products must:

  • Be in original condition
  • Include all packaging, accessories, and documentation
  • Not be physically damaged or altered

Prology reserves the right to reject returns that do not meet these conditions, or apply additional fees for damaged or incomplete returns.


8. Return shipping and risk
  • Customers are responsible for return shipping unless the product is faulty
  • You must ensure goods are properly packaged
  • Risk of loss or damage during return remains with the customer
We recommend insured and trackable shipping for all returns.

9. Refunds

Once a return is received and approved:

  • Refunds will be processed to the original payment method
  • Processing time: 5–10 business days

We may deduct shipping costs for change-of-mind returns, or refuse refunds until goods are inspected. Refunds may be delayed if items are incomplete or damaged due to improper return handling.


10. Exchanges

We may offer exchanges for faulty products or incorrect items. Exchanges for change-of-mind are subject to approval and availability.


11. Manufacturer warranty

Many products are covered by manufacturer warranties. In some cases, you may be directed to the manufacturer for faster resolution, and warranty claims may be handled directly by the manufacturer.

Prology does not guarantee manufacturer response times.

12. Technical compatibility disclaimer

Returns will not be accepted for:

  • Incompatibility with your systems
  • Incorrect product selection
  • Failure to verify specifications before purchase

You are responsible for ensuring compatibility prior to purchase.


13. Data responsibility

Before returning any product, you must:

  • Backup all data
  • Remove all sensitive or confidential information
Prology is not responsible for data loss or data security on returned products.

14. Bulk / business orders

For commercial or bulk purchases:

  • Different return conditions may apply
  • Change-of-mind returns are generally not accepted
  • Custom agreements may override this policy

15. Inspection and testing

All returned products may be inspected and tested for faults. If no fault is found, the product may be returned to you and testing or handling fees may apply.


16. Abuse of policy

We reserve the right to refuse returns or suspend accounts where we reasonably believe there is abuse of the return policy or fraudulent activity.
