We are not just an Internet website. We have been in business for over 25 years with a international reputation. We are a well established, profitable and recognised Duty Free retailer.

When transacting via our secure server, your credit card and personal details are encrypted using the latest military standard SSL (Secure Socket Layer) 128 Bit encryption technology before being sent over the internet. It encrypts all of your personal information, including credit card number, name, and address, so that it cannot be read as the information travels over the Internet. You can tell you are in secure (SSL) mode when a little padlock appears on the bottom of the screen.

Your credit card number is removed from our on-line server within one minute of it arriving and is stored on a separate secure server which is not accessible via the internet at all. If you are still unsure about sending your credit card to us via the Internet, then we suggest you use one of our additional payment methods.

Security is a 2-way street and it is up to you to ensure you protect your information. We recommend:

• If using a public computer or terminal, always log out when you complete an online session.
• Keep your passwords private. Remember, anybody who knows your password may access your account.
• When creating a password, use at least 8 characters - a combination of letters and numbers is best. Do not use your name, e-mail address, or other personal information that can be easily obtained. It is also recommended that you frequently change your password.
• Avoid using the same password for multiple online accounts.
• Max's - Norfolk Island will never e-mail or call a customer and ask that they disclose or verify their maxs.nf password, credit card, or banking account number. Such information should only be submitted when completing an order at shop.maxs.nf, contacting Max's - Norfolk Island directly, or when making updates to the Your Account.
• If you are contacted by, or receive an unsolicited e-mail from an unknown entity, and are asked to confirm or provide your password or personal or banking information, simply disregard the request and report the incident to Max's Norfolk Island for investigation.

Availability

At Max's - Norfolk Island we stock over 5,000 duty free items. Many of these items are rare, discontinued or hard to find as our buyers travel the globe to source these rarer items. Due to high demand, our inventory and pricing can change daily. All out of stock products will be placed on backorder. We will advise you of the expected date of arrival and once in store the product will be dispatched to you immediately and charged to you. We will advise you if for some reason we are no longer able to stock a product that you have ordered. We recommend subscribing to our email Newsletter for information regarding our latest inclusions, exclusives and out-of stock items.

Damage Claims

We are reliant on Australia Post to delivery our parcels intact and any damage that occurs while the parcel is in the hands of the postal system is unfortunately beyond our control. In the unlikely event that your order or part of your order arrives damaged, you will need to notify Australia Post immediately and file a Customer Services Complaint Form in order to claim for the damages.
