Part B – Use Of Services And Liability Terms Between Courier Service Provider And User Of Website And Application.
The User understands and agrees that under the Consumer Protection Act of 1986, the cooling-off period does not apply to contracts for the shipping of goods and, consequently, to the Deliveries of Goods.

The Company, acting as agent, connects Users with the Courier, acting as Principal, by granting them access to the Company's Site and Applications in order to complete a Delivery of Goods in accordance with the Courier Terms in Section B of these Terms and Conditions.
To avoid any confusion, the Company is not a Courier and is solely serving as a liaison between you and the Courier. Under these Terms and Conditions, the Delivery of Goods is subject to an electronic contract between the User and the Courier, which is formed via the Site and Applications.
The Order Request, which includes a Collection Address, a Sender, a Recipient, and a Delivery Address, is issued by the User via the Site or Applications and comprises an offer for services of Delivery of Goods at the Price specified in the Offered Price.
The User irrevocably acknowledges and accepts that the foregoing constitutes a sufficiently precise, firm, unequivocal, and unreserved offer that is irrevocable, except under the conditions and within the timeframes specified in section B, clause 8.1, and is binding on the User upon acceptance of an Order Request by a Courier.
The Site and Applications enable automated order placement between a User and a Courier, with no human participation from the Company. We do not 'verify' the User's delivery Request prior to assigning the Courier. Therefore, the pickup and delivery address must be entered and reported accurately for the relevant Services and pricing to be presented. The Offered Price will be determined based on the information you supply in your Order Request.
When you make a delivery Request, the Company is not required to assign a Courier, and the Company maintains the right to refuse and cancel any Order Request.
A contract for the Services will not be formed unless both your delivery request and the courier's delivery request are accepted.
When a delivery request Acceptance is made, the Company, acting as agent for the Courier, acting as Principal, shall collect, via its banking service provider, the amounts owed for the Deliveries of Goods performed by the Courier for the User.
Only Members who accept these terms are capable of entering into legally binding transactions under Indian law and may use the Company's services. The Services are not available to anybody under the age of 18 or to anyone previously suspended or terminated from using the Services. If a Member is using the Services on behalf of a business, the Member must affirm that it has the authorization to bind the business to these Terms of Service.
The Member understands and accepts that the Services can only be accessed online through the Site and the Applications.
The Company maintains the right to reject or cancel an Order Request from a User at any time, for any or no reason.
The Company reserves the right to inform other Users of any activities that, in its sole discretion, led to the cancellation of an Order Request from a User.
If a User is denied access to the Services in this manner, the User may request for readmission. Along with the User's contact details, the appeal must include a written explanation of why the User should be reinstated. The appeal may be examined at the sole discretion of the Company, and any decision regarding a User's reinstatement will be made at the sole discretion of the Company. The submission of an appeal by a User does not ensure that the User will be reinstated or that the appeal will be reviewed. The Company will notify the User of its reinstatement decision. The Company is under no obligation to explain its judgement to you. All decisions are final.
No exclusion
Nothing in these Terms and Conditions limits or excludes the Company's duty to a Member for the following:

Subject to this Part A, clause 4.1, the Company's total liability to any Member arising out of or in connection with the Terms shall be limited to Rs 1000.
The Company shall not be liable to a Member, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), for breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, for:
The Member shall indemnify, defend, and/or settle and hold harmless the Company for any loss or damage (including legal fees) that the Company may sustain or incur in relation to any third party claim, to the extent that such claim is based on any breach by the Member of the provisions of these Terms and Conditions.
The Courier may be liable for material damage and/or consequential loss, such as loss, theft, material damage, or destruction of the Goods during the Delivery of Goods, unless the aforementioned are caused by factors such as, without limitation, the fault of the Sender or the Recipient, a Force Majeure Event, a defect inherent to the Goods, or inadequate packaging.
The Courier's total liability for material damage and/or consequential loss, such as loss, theft, material damage, average or destruction of the Goods, shall not exceed the lesser of: I the original value of the Goods; or ii) the cost of their repair or reconstitution, up to a maximum of Rs 10,000 per claim. Any claim must be supported by receipts from the User and/or Recipient.
The Courier shall not be liable for any indirect loss resulting from the Delivery of Goods or its failure.
Where Goods contain sensitive data and documents, the User shall indemnify the Courier against all actions, claims, processes, and judgments, as well as all costs spent in connection with the loss, damage, or disclosure of such data or documents.
Occasionally, the Company may offer Users the option to purchase Enhanced Protection for damages incurred during Delivery of Goods.
These Part C Courier Terms apply exclusively to the User and the Courier with regard to the Delivery of Goods. The Company, serving as an agent, connects Users with the Courier, acting as the Principal, by providing them with access to the Company's Technology in order to complete a Goods Delivery. All Courier Deliveries of Goods are subject to these Courier Terms.
User's Request for Delivery of Goods
The User must enter the Collection Address, the Sender from whom the Courier must collect the Goods, the Delivery Address, and the Recipient to whom the Courier must deliver the Goods, as well as a telephone number, which may be that of the User and/or the Sender and/or the Recipient, into the Site or Applications.
The User acknowledges and agrees that this information is required for the Delivery of Goods and that the Courier is obligated to comply.
The User represents and warrants to the Courier that the User shall: Request the Delivery of Goods to a specific individual, with the understanding that Delivery of Goods can only be confirmed by the Recipient's signature;
Specify the details, whether obvious or not, of the Goods when they may have an impact on the Courier's ability to complete the delivery, particularly if they may change the Method of Transport;
Not request Delivery of Goods to a Recipient who is inaccessible or which would require unreasonable efforts by the Courier, such as Recipients who are incarcerated or whose address is inaccessible by land and/or not close to a marked road (delivery of the Goods will be made based on the details contained on the Goods).
Use the Service and Order Request only for legitimate purposes.
Not applicable for Excluded Items.
Subject to the foregoing, an Offered Price for the Delivery of Goods shall then be provided to the User.
When a Courier accepts an Order Request, the User is provided with the Courier's telephone number.
Acceptance of the Order Request by the Courier
Acceptance of an Order Request on the Site binds the Courier irrevocably to perform the stated Delivery of Goods in accordance with the T&Cs.
Regardless of the Method of Transport employed, if the Courier accepts the Order Request, he agrees to deliver the Goods in accordance with the terms of Part F.
Acceptance by a Courier of an Order Request shall be notified to the User by a notification SMS message to the telephone number entered on the Site or Applications in the Order Request or through the Applications, and shall be deemed irrevocable conclusion of the contract binding the User to the Courier that makes the Delivery of Goods, subject to the provisions of Part C, Article 8 of these Terms and Conditions.
The User shall ensure that the Goods are adequately wrapped to safeguard their contents. Additionally, the packaging must be enough to preserve the weight of the Goods, and several shipments shall not be strapped or joined together. Any Goods that have been improperly wrapped will be considered excluded.
The Couriers will assume that the Goods have been properly wrapped and will act accordingly in terms of expertise and care. Any claim coming from a package that is not packaged to a reasonable standard and in accordance with the aforementioned guidelines will be denied. For additional information, please consult Part B clause 2 above.
All Goods must be able to resist a brief drop; fragile things should not be transported via the Services.
The Courier reserves the right to refuse a Goods for a reasonable reason, such as no packaging, insufficient packaging, or where the Goods do not comply with the information provided by the User in the Order Request – for instance, the Goods contain deficient or ambiguous labelling, contain a Prohibited item, or are larger/heavier than stated. Under such conditions, the Cancellation Fee is due.
The User is responsible for ensuring that the individual handing over the Goods delivers them to the appropriate Courier. ACQUAINTPRO LOGISTICS and the Courier assume no responsibility for loss, damage, or theft of a Good due to the Goods being transferred to someone other than the designated Courier.
Upon collection of the Goods, the Courier shall offer the Sender the opportunity to sign on the smartphone's display. The signature will serve as proof of collection for any issues the User may have with the Goods or order processing.
As delivery will be made to the address specified on the Goods, it is the User's obligation to verify that all information is correctly filled out and presented on the appropriate Goods. It is not the Courier's obligation to verify this information; thus, please verify it before he departs.
After approval of the Order Request, the Courier may need to contact the User via telephone.
At the moment of Goods Delivery, the Courier may also need to call the Sender and/or Recipient, if not the User, through telephone.
In this regard, the User who has entered the telephone numbers of the Recipient and/or the Sender in order for the Courier to contact them in connection with the Delivery of Goods represents and guarantees that he has got their consent to do so.
If the Goods are not ready for collection at the planned time specified in the Order Request, the Courier will wait for collection if asked by the User. If the Courier waits for the Goods for more than 15 minutes after the suggested collection time specified in the Order Request, the User will incur an extra fee of $3 per minute (in addition to the Price still payable for the Delivery of the Goods).
If the Courier is unable to contact the User, the Sender, or the Recipient, the Courier may automatically terminate the Delivery of Goods and charge the User the full Price, as per Part C, clause 6.2 of these Terms and Conditions. If the Delivery of Goods is terminated, the Courier will arrange a Delivery of Goods to the Collection Address (reverse procedure) in order to return the Goods to the Sender or the User. The delivery cost will be calculated as if the return point is the additional waypoint and the existing recipient is the Sender.
Normally, the Goods will be collected on the date selected by the User, and a delivery Request can be made between 1 hour and 14 days prior to the needed delivery date. Collections are feasible 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, but are subject to Courier availability in meeting the User's Order Request specifications.
The automated system on the Site and Applications requests the collection timeframes specified in the Order Request of the User. The Courier is not required to collect the Goods within any estimated period or other deadline. If the Courier is unable to collect the Goods within the timeframe specified in the Order Request, the Courier will notify the User as soon as feasible of the updated collection time.
Where a failure to collect the Goods in accordance with the Order Request results from the acts, activities, behaviour, attitudes, and/or negligence of the Courier, the Courier must be contacted and redelivery will be made at no additional cost. In all other cases, the redelivery will be considered a new Order Request and will be charged the full Price, while the aborted collection would incur a 50% cancellation fee.
The Sender's signature on the Applications installed on the Courier's Device verifies the collection of the Goods by the Courier from the Sender. A signature will serve as verification that the Goods were collected in compliance with the User's Order Request.
The User is responsible for delivering the correct package to the correct Assigned Courier. Using the order reference number received at the time of booking, the Sender can determine the Assigned Courier. The Courier assumes no responsibility for loss, damage, or theft of Goods incurred as a result of the Goods being delivered to someone other than the Assigned Courier.
Once the Sender signs the Applications installed on the Courier's Device, the Courier is considered to be in possession of the Goods.
The Courier is not required to make any Delivery of Goods within any estimated timeframe provided, or within any other deadline. Nevertheless, he agrees to make his best efforts to accomplish the Delivery of Goods within a reasonable timeframe, taking into consideration the Method of Transport, the Goods, traffic and weather circumstances, etc.
The Delivery of the Goods to the Recipient by the Courier is documented by the Recipient's signature on the Applications loaded on the Courier's Device. A signature will serve as evidence that the Goods have been delivered in compliance with the User's delivery Request.
Delivery of Goods is available 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days a year, but is contingent on the availability of the Courier to fulfil the User's Order Request.
If a Courier is unable to deliver the Goods, the Courier will make reasonable efforts to contact the User through email, text message, and/or phone call in an effort to reschedule the delivery. After making such reasonable efforts, the Courier may cancel the Delivery of Goods in accordance with Part C, clause 6.2, if the Goods are not delivered. The cancellation fee is equal to 50% of the Price.
By calling the Company's call centre, the User can request that Delivery of Goods and Collection be made to or from a neighbouring or unattended address. If the Courier confirms in real time that the Goods were delivered, the Courier is not liable for any allegations that the Goods were not delivered. As evidence of delivery, the Courier may photograph the Delivery of Goods at an unattended address.
Deliveries can only be made to a complete street address. The Courier is unable to deliver to PO Boxes or BFPO addresses. If a complete street address is not supplied and the Courier is unable to perform a Delivery of Goods, the User will not receive a refund and will be charged an additional 50% of the Price as a cancellation fee.
The User is under no obligation to accept any of the Offered Prices and may cancel his delivery Request free of charge, provided no delivery request Acceptance has been made.
The User may cancel his delivery Request if the Courier has not collected or attempted to collect the Goods from the Sender after the User has accepted the delivery request. A cancellation fee of up to fifty percent of the Price may apply.
Once the Courier has collected the Goods, it is no longer possible for the User to cancel the Delivery of Goods, and the User must pay the entire Price.
In the case that the User cancels the Delivery of Goods after the Courier has collected the Goods, the Courier will arrange a Delivery of Goods to the Collection Address (reverse procedure) in order to return the Goods to the Sender or the User. The delivery cost will be calculated as if the return point is the additional waypoint and the existing recipient is the Sender.
The Courier may only cancel a Goods Delivery in the following instances: if the Goods differ from the description provided in the Delivery Request; if the Goods are damaged; or if the Goods are lost.
If the Goods have no packaging or are insufficiently packaged; If the Goods are not correctly labelled; If the Goods contain a Prohibited Item; or If the Courier cannot execute the Delivery of Goods without communicating with the User and/or the Sender and/or the Recipient and is unable to reach the User and/or the Sender and/or the Recipient on the telephone numbers provided.
The Courier's cancellation of the Delivery of Goods for the aforementioned reasons must be deemed a cancellation by the User, as described in Section C, Clause 6.1 of these Terms and Conditions, and the User will be charged the full Price.
Unless otherwise agreed in advance, upon Delivery of Goods, the User shall sign (or ensure that the Recipient signs) for the Goods, stating to the Courier that the Goods are undamaged.
In the case of loss or damage to the Goods, the Recipient must decline to sign for the Delivery of Goods and provide the Courier with an explanation. The User shall also notify the Company in writing of any loss or damage to the Goods within one day of delivery.
In the absence of explicit reservations recorded by the Recipient at the time of Delivery of Goods, it is the User's responsibility to verify that the damage occurred and was caused during the Delivery of Goods by the Courier.
Once the Courier has departed following Delivery of the Goods, all inquiries regarding loss or damage to the Goods must be directed to the Company as the Courier's representative.
Any extra information required to support a claim for loss or damage to Goods must be supplied within 21 days of a request. If the requested information is not supplied within the specified timeframe, the Courier reserves the right to terminate the claim. The User can send an email to https://kuriyar.co.in/ to file a damage/loss claim.
To file a claim, the User must provide evidence that the Courier has collected the Goods from the Sender. In the event of a claim, a copy of the receipt for the Goods, along with serial numbers and IMEI numbers for electrical items, will be required as proof of the Goods' worth.
The damaged Goods and any packaging should be preserved until the claim is resolved, since photographs or an examination may be required.
If a claim of damaged Goods is made, all packaging must be retained for inspection by the Courier. The item must also be accessible for examination at the Delivery Address in the condition in which it was delivered. Additional journeys may result in additional harm, making it harder to estimate the initial damage. In order to process the claim, the Courier may also need images of the internal and external packing as well as the damaged item.
If the User files a claim for damaged Goods, the Courier may additionally request a repair cost estimate for the Goods from a professional. If the Goods cannot be repaired, the specialist must notify the Courier in writing.
A claim for missing Goods can only be submitted once the Courier has exhausted its search efforts within a reasonable amount of time.
Any amounts due for missing or damaged Goods will be paid solely to the User. Please ensure that the correct name or company name is provided at the time of booking, since a surcharge will be applied to reissue a settlement cheque.
Subject to Part B, clause 4.1, the Courier is not liable (whether in negligence or otherwise) to the User for any loss or damage of Goods unless legal proceedings are begun within 15 days from the date of Delivery of Goods or the date of a claim decision.
No suspension or refund of the Price owing by the User shall be given under any circumstances other than those stated in Section C, Article 7 of these Terms and Conditions, including, without limitation, the Recipient's refusal to accept the Goods. If the Recipient refuses to accept the Goods for any reason other than those specified in Part C, Article 7, the Courier will return the Goods via a Delivery of Goods, and the User will be charged for the return.
The User understands and agrees that the Courier is not liable for any non-conformity of the Goods or delay in Delivery of Goods in relation to the given expected timeframe, and that these do not constitute a valid and admissible justification for refusing to accept the Goods.

Billing mandate The Company connects Users with the Courier by providing them with access to its Website and/or Applications. The Courier, acting as principal, delegates to the Company, acting as agent, the responsibility of drafting and issuing the Courier's bills in accordance with the applicable economic and tax regulations. The Price owing by the User to the Courier for the Delivery of Goods (minus the commission given to the Company) is paid straight to the Courier's Stripe account. The objective of the billing mandate The Courier fully authorises and instructs the Company, which hereby accepts, to generate in his name and on his behalf original invoices (initial and/or corrected) related to Deliveries of Goods to Users, in accordance with all applicable laws. The Company is responsible for sending the aforementioned invoices to the Customers. Duration of the contract This billing mandate, which commences upon acceptance of the terms and conditions, is entered into for an indefinite period of time. It may be discontinued at any time, without cause, by either the Company or the Courier by registered letter with acknowledgment of receipt. The cancellation is effective upon receipt of this registered letter or email. Obligations of the Organization
As agent, the Company shall generate invoices for Deliveries of Goods in accordance with the information provided by the Courier, in the name and on behalf of the Courier, the principal. The Company shall guarantee that the original invoices it produces in the name and on behalf of the Courier have the same format as if they were issued by the Courier himself, particularly with regard to the mandatory information required by the applicable law. The Company must additionally include the phrase "Invoice produced by [the Company] in the name and on behalf of [name of Courier]" on the original invoices it issues. Responsibilities of the Courier The Courier retains full responsibility for his legal and tax duties in billing matters for the initial invoices issued in his name and on his behalf by the Company in accordance with these terms and conditions, notably his VAT obligations. The Company is not liable for violations of the Courier's tax responsibilities and has no joint and several liability for any VAT, penalties, or fines owed by the Courier. The Courier retains full obligation for his status as a beneficiary of the basic VAT allowance, if applicable. The Courier is accountable for all of his tax and VAT responsibilities. Controversy about invoices issued on behalf of the Courier That the Parties agree that the Courier is not required to formally confirm invoices made under these terms. The Courier shall have fifteen days from the date of issuance to dispute the content of the invoice issued by the Company in his name and on his behalf. The Courier is presumed to have accepted the invoice issued in his name and on his behalf if no challenge is filed within this time frame. In the event of a dispute, the Company will issue an amended invoice. The Price owed by the User to the Courier for Delivery of Goods (minus the commission owed to the Company and, if applicable, the cost of insurance) should be paid directly to the Courier's Stripe account.
