Disclaimer

Last updated 19 June 2026

Please read this disclaimer carefully. It applies to your use of the Compliance Watchdog website and services.

Compliance Watchdog is an independent service. We are not the TGA, the ACCC, the NSW Food Authority, or any other government regulator, and we hold no enforcement powers.

1Independent service, not a regulator

Compliance Watchdog is an independent, privately operated service. We are not the Therapeutic Goods Administration (TGA), the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC), the NSW Food Authority, or any other government agency or regulator, and we are not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of any of them. We hold no investigative or enforcement powers of our own. References to regulators on this website are descriptive only and do not imply any partnership, accreditation or authorisation.

2General information only

The content of this website is general in nature and provided for information purposes only. It is not legal, regulatory, medical, health or other professional advice, and must not be relied upon as such. Always seek advice from a suitably qualified professional about your specific circumstances.

3Accuracy and currency

Laws, regulations, codes and registers, including the Therapeutic Goods Act 1989, the TGA Advertising Code, the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG), the Poisons Standard and the FSANZ Food Standards Code, change over time. While we take care to be accurate, we do not warrant that information on this website is complete, current or free from error.

4Reports and referrals

Where we refer a matter to a regulator, we do so through that regulator's official channels. A referral does not guarantee that any regulator will investigate, take action, or reach any particular outcome. Decisions about investigation and enforcement rest solely with the relevant authority.

5External links

This website may contain links to third-party websites. We provide those links for convenience only and are not responsible for their content or practices.

6Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Compliance Watchdog accepts no liability for any loss or damage arising from reliance on any information on this website. Nothing in this disclaimer excludes rights or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded, including under the Australian Consumer Law. See our Terms of Use for the full limitation of liability.
