3.  Discrepancies Quotations for Shipping Fees by 3PLW.NZ are based on the information you provide, including sender’s address, receiver’s address, weight, dimensions, and item value. If there is a discrepancy between the quoted Shipping Fees and actual costs due to incorrect information provided by you, such as incorrect weight, dimensions, value, or addresses, you will be responsible for the discrepancy amount. 3PLW.NZ disclaims liability for Shipping Fees errors due to inaccurate or incomplete information. 3PLW.NZ agrees to make reasonable efforts to bill such discrepancy amount to your account promptly but makes no representations or warranties regarding the time needed to complete processing.

8. Confidential Information

1.  Definition Each party ("Recipient") acknowledges that it may receive Confidential Information from the other party ("Discloser").

9. Indemnification


10. Disclaimers

11. Limitation of Liability

1.  Third-Party Liability By accepting the Terms of Service, you acknowledge and agree that 3PLW.NZ does not assume any liability whatsoever for acts, errors, or omissions (including, without limitation, any negligence or willful misconduct) of any third-party service providers with whom you or any of your affiliates may contract, regardless of the purpose.

2.  Waiver of Consequential Damages and Limitation of Liability In no event shall 3PLW.NZ be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or damages for loss or damage of Shipments, loss of profits, revenue, data, or use, incurred by you or any third party, whether in an action in contract or tort, arising from your access to, or use of, the Website, any content, or any third-party websites and content. Other than as set forth below, in no event shall 3PLW.NZ's liability under this agreement exceed the monies paid or payable by you to 3PLW.NZ for the applicable services excluding carrier fees or other third-party fees (“damages cap”). In the event of an unauthorized transaction by a 3PLW.NZ employee or agent, 3PLW.NZ is only liable for the damages cap. 3PLW.NZ must be notified within five (5) days after any unauthorized transaction, or you acknowledge to waive all damages from 3PLW.NZ.

3.  Declaration and Accurate Information You are responsible for providing complete and accurate information regarding the Shipment, including but not limited to the item category and item value. You shall be responsible for any error, damage, expense, or consequence resulting from incorrect or incomplete information provided to us. You shall further indemnify 3PLW.NZ for and hold 3PLW.NZ harmless from any loss or expense resulting from the incorrect information provided by you. 3PLW.NZ shall not be responsible for losses or damages if any item contained in the Shipment is wrongfully declared. Moreover, 3PLW.NZ is not responsible for any damages or losses due to customs practices. 3PLW.NZ shall not be liable for the accuracy and truthfulness of the information provided by you.

4.  Import Taxes and Duties When scheduling a Shipment with 3PLW.NZ and purchasing a shipping label, you have the option of choosing between DDU Shipment or DDP Shipment. In DDU Shipments, you choose not to pay in advance for any taxes and duties in the destination country, for which the receiver will be billed accordingly. By using DDU Shipment, users acknowledge that any local customs charges, import taxes, import duties, last-mile delivery fees, or any other extra charge(s) regarding the Shipment (“Taxes and Duties”), will be the receiver’s sole responsibility. 3PLW.NZ shall not be liable for any discrepancies between the Shipping Fee quoted by 3PLW.NZ and any local fee, or additional delivery fee charged to the receiver. In the event that you wish to avoid the receiver being charged any additional fees, you may use DDP Shipment, in which you agree to pre-pay the Taxes and Duties for the destination country at the time you purchase the shipping labels. 3PLW.NZ will provide you with an estimate of the Taxes and Duties prior to each Shipment for your reference (“Estimate”). For DDU Shipments, such Estimate is for reference only, and the Shipment may be subject to additional charges depending on local customs practices. For DDP Shipments, 3PLW.NZ guarantees that the Estimate is binding, and any Taxes and Duties payable by the user shall not exceed the Estimate provided by 3PLW.NZ. Users shall not be liable for any discrepancy between the Shipping Fee quoted by 3PLW.NZ and any local fee or additional delivery fee, provided that all information regarding the Shipment submitted to 3PLW.NZ by the user is complete and accurate. 3PLW.NZ reserves the right to charge a user using DDP Shipments additional fees in respect of excessive Taxes and Duties resulting from incomplete and/or inaccurate information provided by the user used to compute the Estimate.

5.  Customs 3PLW.NZ shall not be liable for any loss, delay, or damage of items shipped while in the hands of local customs. Additionally, 3PLW.NZ shall not be held responsible if local customs confiscates, holds, or denies release of the Shipment to the receiver.

6.  Service Provided by Courier 3PLW.NZ is a technology platform that connects shippers and couriers. Under no circumstances will 3PLW.NZ be liable for any Services provided by any Courier. 3PLW.NZ is not liable for any damage, destruction, or loss of Shipment, late delivery, or issues with tracking by the Courier. 3PLW.NZ is not liable for acts, errors, or omissions (including, without limitation, any negligence or willful misconduct) of any third-party service providers (including, without limitation, any delay, wrong, or missed pickup by the Courier). If you buy a shipping label from a Courier that does not provide pickup service, you agree to be responsible for delivering the Shipment to the designated drop-off point. 3PLW.NZ is not liable for the delivery time information shown on the Website. 3PLW.NZ is not responsible for any delayed delivery. Furthermore, 3PLW.NZ connects warehouse service providers with potential clients. You acknowledge and agree that we do not assume any liability whatsoever for acts, errors, or omissions (including, without limitation, any negligence or willful misconduct) of any third-party service providers with whom you or any of your affiliates may contract, regardless of the purpose.
