Rights and responsibilities for consumers and traders under the Australian Consumer Law (ACL) that need to be considered when buying, selling, or agreeing to contracts.

Rights and responsibilities extend to after-sales services such as guarantees, quality issues, maintenance and repairs.

Some matters may arise well after a contract has been signed or a purchase has been made, so knowing your rights is important.
