Is your website secure? Are my details secure when ordering via IBC?

Yes, IBC has ensured that its website is 100% secure.

This information is protected against unauthorized access. It is removed from the server and placed on a computer that outsiders can't access.

All the major retail stores use such a SSL connection, but if your browser does not support it or if you prefer not to use our checkout, then you can send us an email or fax containing the items you want to order along with your address and payment information.

What “Cookies” do IBC use to store customers data?

"Cookies" are small pieces of information that are stored by your browser on your computer's hard drive. Our cookies do not contain any personal data like name or address, we only store the minimal required pieces of data that enable us to store items in your shopping cart between visits. Most Web browsers automatically accept cookies, although you can usually change your browser to prevent that. We suggest that you keep the cookies enabled for easier shopping.


Can I make copies of Videos/DVD's to teach others about Islam or for personal use?

Illegal copying of Islamic material (DVD's, Videos, CD's, and Tapes) is ‘Haram' (forbidden) and stifles further development of such material. For a short term benefit there is no long-term gain as similar type products will no longer be produced. IBC is proud to supply only ‘genuine, original' material.

If there is a genuine want to assist others to learn about Islam yet you are unable to get access to the required resources, please contact us as we may be able to assist you. We would appreciate this rather than hearing about how the goods we sell have been illegally copied. Many of the goods we sell come from hardworking organisations that have invested large sums of money to produce these products and have given permission to us to sell their goods. We must uphold this trust “Amana” and ensure illegal copies are not made of their goods. If copies are to be made, permission must firstly be obtained from the original producers. We truly appreciate your understanding on this issue.


I purchased an Audio Tape/CD and it's defective. What should I do?

Before sending us back anything, please email us info@ibcshopping.com.au and let us know what seems to be the problem. Usually, we'll refund or mail you a replacement. No hassles! Please note you must inform us within 5 days of receiving the goods in alignment with our Returns policy .


What format are your Video Cassettes and DVD's?

All of our videos are in PAL format only (similar to UK/Europe/Asia, not USA). Our DVD's are in Region free.


What if my questions aren't answered here?

I require technical support for a software product what do I do?
