You agree that the Rider/Freelancer shall not be required, and that you shall not cause them, to carry anything if it would be illegal or unlawful for them to do so under the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. You agree that should you do this, you will indemnify WYNETTE Company Ltd against any losses and/or damage that we may suffer as a consequence.
The Rider/Freelancer shall not, carry: livestock; Food Items; liquids; perishable goods; gasses; pyrotechnics; arms; ammunition; corrosive; toxic; flammable; explosive; oxidising or radioactive materials. In addition, the Rider/Freelancer will not carry any items which are prohibited by the laws of the Land. The Rider/Freelancer and WYNETTE Company Ltd reserves the right to refuse to carry any parcels which are neither the property of, nor sent on behalf of, you.

It is understood that you agree that:
All Consignments shall be accepted at the Delivery Point and that the recipient shall give the Rider/Freelancer an appropriate receipt and you agree that this receipt shall be conclusive evidence of delivery of the Consignment. Unless specifically agreed otherwise, “working days” do not include Friday, Saturday or public holidays.
No refund or reduction shall be provided of charges if less than the number of parcels for which you have contracted has been received. That you cannot send a package weighing more than 3 Kilograms and that Rider/Freelancer reserves the right to refuse delivery of products weighing over the set limit.
You will be barred from sending contrabands as specified by the laws of the Land. You are liable to disclose all necessary information regarding the product to the Rider/freelance rider. You will not be allowed to send any food items. You are not allowed to send passport, bank cheques or any material pertaining to a cash transaction between two entities. You are encouraged not to transfer extremely expensive items; if they do, they are asked to be cautious.
You are to maintain the orders according to the outlined product categories, fully understanding each category description and strictly abiding by any restrictions a product category imposes on the user.
You are to maintain extreme caution while packing the product, so as to diminish chances of damage as much as possible. You are to make sure that the items do not harm the rider in any way i.e. wrapping flowers and earrings properly.
You are encouraged to bubble-wrap any electronics you wish to transfer, so as to avoid damaging the item. You have to pay the riders upfront. Failure to do so will result in the rider cancelling your request.
You may not ask riders to receive cash payment from the receiver. You are to report any damaged/missing/lost items to our support team within 5 hours of dispatch. WYNETTE Parcels would not take full liability of any item that is damaged or lost.

LIABILITY

YOUR ATTENTION IS DRAWN PARTICULARLY TO THIS CLAUSE AND THE LIMITS OF OUR LIABILITY WITHIN IT. As a responsible business, WYNETTE Company Ltd and the respective Riders/Freelancers shall hopefully perform the Service(s) in a professional manner with the appropriate level of skill and care. WYNETTE Parcels will not take full liability of any item that is damaged or lost. Damage to a Consignment may still occur as a consequence of handling of it and in such circumstances, WYNETTE Company Ltd and the Riders/Freelancer liability shall be limited as set out in these Terms and Conditions.
The reasoning behind this limitation of our liability is as follows: The value of a Consignment and the amount of potential loss to you that could arise if a Consignment is damaged or lost is not something which can be easily ascertained but is something which is better known to you.
In many cases it cannot be known to WYNETTE or the Rider/Freelancer at all and can only be known to you. The potential amount of loss that might be caused or alleged to be caused to you is likely to be disproportionate to the sum that could reasonably be expected to charge you for providing the Service(s) under this Agreement.
It is not possible to obtain cover which would give unlimited compensation for full potential liability to all customers and, even if it were, such cover would be much cheaper if taken out by you and on that basis, it is more reasonable for you to take out such cover from an independent third party. It is imperative to keep the costs of providing the Service(s) to you as low as possible. In these Terms and Conditions, damage to you means any loss of, or damage to, a Consignment.
WYNETTE Company Ltd. shall not be liable to you:
a) Under any circumstances where there are any material discrepancies between the declared dimensions and weights and the actual dimensions and weights;
b) In any circumstances in respect of the items on the Prohibited items; Special Provisions items and for damage to the No Compensation Items lists, unless otherwise stated by us. To the best of our abilities, we can connect you through to the rightful authority to investigate damage or loss of your item. However, we will not be held liable for damage of your item or loss because of the aforementioned reasons in these Terms and Conditions.

PAYMENT

You may choose to pay for the services by cash and where available, by using transfer channels. Once you have used the Service, you are required to make payment in full to the rider/freelancer and such payment is non-refundable. If you have any complaints in relation to the dispatch service provided, then that dispute must be taken up with the third-party rider/freelancer provider directly.
You have to pay the riders upfront. Failure to do so will result in the rider cancelling your request. You may not ask riders to receive cash payment from the receiver.
Selecting a particular payment method means you are agreeing to the terms of service of the Company’s processing partners and your financial institution. You will bear all fees that may be charged by such processing partners and/or your financial institution (if any) for the payment method you have selected.

TAXES

You agree that this Agreement shall be subject to all prevailing statutory taxes, duties, fees, charges and/or costs, however denominated, as may be in force in Nigeria and in connection with any future taxes that may be introduced at any point of time. You further agree to use your best efforts to do everything necessary and required by the relevant laws to enable, assist and/or defend the Company to claim or verify any input tax credit, set off, rebate or refund in respect of any taxes paid or payable in connection with the Service supplied under this Agreement.
