Shipping Policy
Our Shipping and Delivery Policy
Welcome to Meta4 Shipping and Delivery Policy (“the Policy”). Meta4 (collectively, “Meta4”, “us”, “our” or “we”) are very delighted that you have shown interest in us.
Our Partnership Structure
We partner with third party logistic service providers in order to effectuate product shipping and delivery to you ("Logistic Partners"). We shall provide the details of the Logistic Partner which will be responsible for processing the shipping and delivery of any Product(s) purchased by you at the time such Product is processed and successfully handed over to the Logistic Partner by us. The user will be provided with an estimated timeline for the delivery of the Product purchased from us through email/ SMS on the email ID and/or mobile number provided by you/ registered with us. This estimated timeline shall be notified to the user on the order confirmation page displayed at the time the order is confirmed by us.
You agree and understand that though we effectuate product delivery to the users through our Logistic Partners, we reserve the right to ship and deliver the Products on our own without engaging any Logistic Partners or third party service providers.
You agree and understand that though we endeavour to ship and deliver our Products all across various jurisdictions, we may, in our sole discretion, determine a select list of areas which are unserviceable for delivery of Products. We or our Logistic Partners do not provide shipping and delivery services in such unserviceable areas and may not process your orders on www.createyourmeta-iv.com (our “Website/Platform”) in such cases. In the event an area has been deemed unserviceable by us, we shall notify such users at the time of placing an order for purchase of Products on our Platform.
You agree and acknowledge that to effectuate timely delivery of the purchased Products to you, we may inquire or collect specific information like your name, shipping address, billing address, landmarks, contact details, etc. You shall ensure that all information that is submitted by you to us is true, complete, accurate and sufficient to identify the actual place of delivery.
You understand that you shall bear absolute liability in case of any failure by us in delivering the purchased Products due to your failure to provide correct, complete, sufficient and accurate information at the time of placing the order. It is further clarified that we shall not be liable in any manner and at any point in time due to your failure to provide correct and complete information.
We will attempt to deliver the purchased Product to your designated address within the estimated timeline of delivery notified to you. In the event you are not available or present to accept the delivery of the Product, our Logistic Partners will make a maximum of two attempts to deliver the purchased Product(s) to you. If the last delivery attempt is unsuccessful and you continue to remain unavailable, we reserve the right to cancel the order of the purchased Products at our sole discretion and process the return of such Product to us. We further reserve the right to deduct the shipping and delivery charges borne by us while processing any refunds subsequent to such cancellation.
Force Majeure
While we make reasonable endeavours in ensuring that purchased Products are delivered to you in a timely manner and within the timeline notified to you, you accept and acknowledge that the delivery may be delayed on account of:
- Logistical issues beyond our control;
- Traffic and road blockage situations (especially for Lagos, Nigeria deliveries)
- Unsuitable weather conditions;
- Political disruptions, strikes, employee-lockouts, etc.;
- Acts of God such as floods, earthquakes, etc.;
- Other unforeseeable circumstances.
In such events of delay, we shall make reasonable attempts to inform you by writing to your email ID and/or mobile number registered with us. We disclaim all liabilities that may arise on account of our failure to inform or notify you of delays in the delivery of purchased Products on our Platform. Further, we shall be under no obligation to compensate you for any claim that may otherwise arise on account of delay in the shipment or delivery or use of the purchased Products.
Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability
We endeavour to engage Logistic Partners, employees, agents with the highest regard for ethics and integrity; and behave in a fashion that exudes thorough professionalism, competence and good mannerism. You agree and acknowledge that the actions, inactions of delivery individuals are not in our control, and it is not possible for us to monitor and observe each delivery executive. Since we are merely facilitating delivery of a Product purchased by you, we shall not be liable for any acts or omissions on part of our delivery agents, employees, or personnel and/ or the Logistic Partner or their employees, agents, or personnel including deficiency in service, wrong delivery of Product, time taken to deliver the Product, Product package tampering, etc.
For the sake of abundant clarity, it is stated that any ill-mannerism, impoliteness, discourtesy or offensiveness shown by our delivery executives or the employees, agents, personnel of the Logistic Partners is beyond our control and any issue arising between you and our delivery executive or an employee, agent, personnel of the Logistic Partner will have to be resolved by the you, independently. You agree and acknowledge that you will not hold us responsible or require us to settle, mediate or resolve any disputes between you and the delivery personnel delivering the Products to you.
Delivery/Shipment Process and Procedure
Once you place an order on our platform, we process such an order and hand over the purchased Product to our Logistic Partner. The user will receive a unique tracking identity number once the purchased Product is handed over to the Logistics Partner, which will enable the user in tracking the status of delivery of the purchased Products. Our customer service team coordinates with the Logistic Partners to ensure that the Products are delivered to you at the earliest and make all reasonable efforts in ensuring that the Logistic Partners update the tracking status of the purchased Products on a real time basis. It is clarified that we engage third party service providers to effectuate deliveries of the products and hence, we do not guarantee the accuracy or correctness of the tracking status and the status may be subject to inconsistencies arising out of time-lags in updating the information and/ or other technical difficulties which are not in our control.
We reserve the right to charge or collect shipping fees (for delivery and/or return) on Products from time to time. Shipping charges may vary based on the value of the Product, type of Product, area of delivery, payment mechanism, etc. You agree that we are authorized to collect, on behalf of the Logistic Partner, the shipping and delivery fees for the service provided by the Logistic Partner. In the event we charge a shipping fee for the delivery of a purchased Product, such shipping fees will not be refunded by us pursuant to any return request raised by you. You acknowledge and accept that the title and risk of all products ordered by you shall pass on to you upon the delivery/ handover of the purchased Products to you.
