Terms and Conditions of Participation

Please read these terms and conditions of participation in Estée Lauder the Estée E-List Australia Loyalty Program carefully. By participating in this program, you agree to be bound by the terms set out below and all terms expressly incorporated by reference.
If you do not agree to all of these terms, do not participate in this program.

  1. Membership Eligibility and Overview.
    1. The Estée E-List Australia Loyalty Program ("Program") is offered at the sole discretion of Estée Lauder Pty. Limited (ABN 63 008 444 719) of Level 24, 201 Elizabeth Street, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia ("Estée Lauder," "we," "our" or "us").
    2. The Program is available to individuals for their personal use only and is limited to one account per individual. Corporations, associations or other groups may not participate in the Program. Individuals who are legal residents of Australia and at least 18 years or older, and who provide and maintain a valid email address, are eligible to become members. No purchase is necessary to join the Program. The Program may not be used for any business or commercial purpose and we may refuse to create an account where the prospective member does not satisfy the eligibility requirements in this section 1.2 or does not otherwise comply with these Terms. Employees and individuals employed by our business partners or vendors are eligible for membership for personal use only, but may be excluded from certain benefits of the Program as notified at the time of enrolment in the Program or at the time of introduction of additional Program benefits (as applicable).
    3. Affiliates and other brands of The Estée Lauder Companies may also have similar loyalty programs. Membership of the Program does not confer any rights or benefits in the program of any other affiliate or brand of The Estée Lauder Companies.
    4. By joining the Program and becoming a Program member, you (individually and collectively, "you," "your" or "Member"), agree that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Program Terms and Conditions of Participation ("Terms") and by any changes or modifications that we may make in accordance with section 6 of these Terms. You acknowledge and understand that the processing of your personal information will be in accordance with our Privacy Policy. You also agree to our website Terms and Conditions, which apply to your participation in the Program. You may be required to confirm your agreement to these Terms, our Privacy Policy and website Terms and Conditions when participating in the Program, such as when you enrol in the Program or when you place an order.
    5. You should review these Terms, the website Terms and Conditions and the related policies and FAQs frequently to understand the terms and conditions that apply to the Program. These Terms do not alter in any way the terms or conditions of any other agreement you may have with us, including any agreement for products or services. If you do not agree to these Terms and our website Terms and Conditions or do not want your personal data processed in accordance with our Privacy Policy, you should not participate in the Program. The Program is void where prohibited by law.
  2. Program Enrollment.
    1. Eligible individuals may enrol in the Program by visiting www.esteelauder.com.au (collectively, the “Site”) and following the Program prompts to register for the Program.
    2. You are required to provide your email address in order to enrol in the Program. You will also need to create an account by providing your full name, gender, date of birth, email address, mailing address, mobile phone number and creating a password in order to access certain Program benefits and rewards. You are solely responsible for maintaining the accuracy of your account information and for updating it as required. You may update your personal information on the Site.
    3. Only one Program account may be associated with a single email address. In the event of a dispute over ownership of the Program membership account, the member will be deemed to be the authorized account holder of the email address submitted at the time of enrolment. For purposes of these Terms, the “authorized account holder” is the natural person who is assigned to the submitted email address by an internet provider, online service provider, or other organization (e.g., business, educational institution, etc.) that is responsible for assigning email addresses for the domain associated with the submitted email address.
  3. How the Program Works.
    1. The Program is a way in which we reward and thank our loyal customers for purchasing our products and for participating in certain brand experiences on the Site. You are able to earn points and reach Program loyalty tiers by making eligible purchases or taking certain other Program actions. Once you earn points and reach a certain loyalty tier, you may be eligible for certain benefits and rewards applicable to that tier, which benefits may change from time to time and may be offered on a limited basis. Eligible purchases and other opportunities to earn points and reach Program loyalty tiers will be posted on the Site or may be published through other media (e.g., in marketing communications, social media, etc.). Visit our FAQs to learn more about earning points and reaching the Program loyalty tiers.
    2. The Program is a tier-based program determined by the number of points a member has earned within a single year on eligible purchases and through qualifying activities, beginning on the date when you enrol. There are 3 tiers with associated benefits:
      Tier 1, Be Excited0-249 points
      Tier 2, Be Enthusiastic250-499 points
      Tier 3, Be Envied500 + points

      When you join, you’ll automatically be placed in Tier 1, Be Excited and be eligible for all the benefits Tier 1 members receive. Once you earn at least 250 points in your first year, you’ll be automatically moved up to Tier 2, Be Enthusiastic. If you earn 500 points or more in your first year, you’ll qualify for Tier 3, Be Envied.

      Your status in a particular tier is good for the remainder of the year in which you qualify for that tier and the following full year. After that, you’ll need to earn enough points to qualify for that tier each year. For example, if you qualify for Tier 2, Be Enthusiastic, during your first year, you’ll maintain Be Enthusiastic status during your second year. But, if you earn less than 250 points on eligible purchases during your second year, you’ll drop back down to Tier 1, Be Excited status on the second anniversary of your original enrolment date.

    3. For your purchase to qualify for the Program, you must be enrolled in the Program within thirty (30) days of the date of purchase and be signed into your online account at the time of purchase. However, if your membership in the Program is terminated for any reason and you enrol in a new Program account, any purchases made prior to the date you enrol in a new Program account do not qualify for points.
      Only purchases on the Site are eligible for the Program. Purchases made in department stores, specialty stores, airport stores and retail stores (even if owned by us) are not eligible for the Program at this time. Purchases made outside Australia are also not eligible for the Program.
      1. Members receive 1 point for every $1 spent on eligible purchases at the Site. Eligible purchases include regular priced merchandise and exclude facial services/ packages, eGift Cards, redemption items, checkout and deluxe samples, gift with purchase, applicable taxes (including GST), fees, discounts, shipping and delivery charges, and/or other excluded charges specified by us from time-to-time. All points earned from purchases on the Site are pending until 7 days after your order ships, at which point they are fully matured and capable of redemption.
      2. In addition to these purchases, you may also earn points for the following actions on the Site. To earn points, please check to make sure you are a Program member and you have logged into your account before completing the actions below.
        • Earn 10 points when completing the profile (one time only).
        • Earn 15 points for writing product reviews about products that you purchase that get published (to earn points, you must be logged in to your Program account when you purchase the reviewed product at the Site) (for a maximum of 4 published reviews a year).
        • Earn bonus points for purchases made on the Site during exclusive Double Points events.
    4. Points are valid for one (1) year from your Program “anniversary date.” This is the anniversary of the date you enrolled in the Program and occurs on a twelve (12)-month cycle. On your anniversary date each year, your points reset to zero (0) and you start accumulating new points’ benefits and unlocking new rewards, for the following twelve (12) month period.
