16. TERMS AND CONDITIONS RELATING TO EMAIL SERVICES

(1) Time frame

Sprint Media carry out marketing campaigns by email for Buyers by sending large numbers of emails simultaneously to Educational Establishments and businesses in the UK. Sprint Media's ability to do this is governed by technology both within and outside its control. Sprint Media endeavours to send out campaigns at the times agreed to with Buyers, however, when entering the Contract, the Buyer realises that it may not be carried out exactly within that time frame. If the campaign is carried out reasonably closely to the agreed times but not exactly within, the Buyer may not dispute the invoice based on this.

(2) Cancellation of an email campaign(s)

(a) The Buyer may cancel an order without penalty if the Buyer indicates that this is their intention in writing at least 2 working days prior to the sending of the first campaign (if no time on the sending day has been agreed then for the purposes of the Conditions it is to be assumed that sending time is 10:00 am) providing all design work and HTML conversion work has been done by the Buyer. If Sprint Media has worked on the advert in a design or HTML conversion capacity or set the campaign up in its broadcasting software the Buyer will be charged for this work done so far at a rate deemed fair by Sprint Media.

(b) If written notice of intent to cancel is not received at least 48 hours prior to the sending date the Buyer is liable to pay the full cost of the outstanding invoice.

(3) Delivery of email advertisements

For email campaigns, we always aim to send to the numbers quoted, but due to daily fluctuations within the database it is possible that sent to numbers on the day of broadcasting may be slightly higher or lower than originally quoted. We do not guarantee delivery of every single mail (delivery meaning the storage of the email in the recipient's email client, HTML-based or not). This is not due to the quality of data used, simply the filtering systems at the recipients' machines.

(4) Incorrect delivery

Sprint Media sends out many marketing emails a day and naturally very rarely, human errors can occur. Sprint Media endeavours to deliver to the areas of the UK, to the particular establishments, and to the recipients stipulated by the Buyer but has no liability for any loss of trade or profit to the Buyer as a result of delay in delivery or the delivery of a campaign to an incorrect area, establishment or recipient.

(5) Email subjects lines

If the Buyer does not specify an email subject line within 48 hours of the scheduled delivery time then the subject line will be created by Sprint Media without notice at their full discretion.

(6) Right to not send

Sprint Media reserve the right in their absolute discretion to refuse to send an email campaign without liability for losses incurred by the Buyer

(7) Email tracking

(a) Sprint Media can offer a tracking and delivery confirmation service on all its email campaigns. If the Buyer requires a proof of delivery then they should purchase this service prior to the agreed delivery date of their campaign. If not requested and paid for by the Buyer before the email is broadcast then Sprint Media cannot provide any tracking results.

(b) Where a Buyer chooses not to purchase email tracking the Buyer hereby accepts the word of the directors of Sprint Media that a particular mailing has been carried out in accordance with the Contract.

(c) Sprint Media has no control over any email once it has been sent from its servers and cannot guarantee that a campaign will specifically generate sales/interest in the Buyer's product/service.

(8) Email Suppression

Where the Buyer wishes to suppress certain establishments from the send list, a list of the establishment name, Postcode and email address must be provided to Sprint Media 48 hours prior to the delivery time. Additional charges will apply for list suppressions/management.

17. TERMS AND CONDITIONS RELATING TO POSTAL SERVICES

(1) Verification of work

(a) If Sprint Media is responsible for print, packaging or mailing any items and the Buyer wishes to verify that Sprint Media carries out such work as required then the Buyer may visit, by prior arrangement, Sprint Media's premises on the appropriate day when the work is being carried out and select packages at random that relate to the Services to verify the contents of the packages. It is the Buyer's responsibility to organise this.

(b) Where a Buyer chooses not to attend Sprint Media's premises in accordance with clause 17. (1) (a) the Buyer hereby accepts the word of the directors of Sprint Media that a particular mailing has been carried out in accordance with the Contract.

(c) If the Buyer requires copies of Post Office documentation to verify dispatch information then he must request these at the time of the order otherwise the Buyer acknowledges that the quantity of mail posted will be as per the Contract.

(d) If no such provision is made in the Confirmation of Order and/or the mail piece recipient is stated as being 'Key decision maker' or any such generic title on the Confirmation of Order and the Buyer does not explicitly express in writing the intended recipient then the Buyer hereby agrees that Sprint Media will choose an appropriate recipient without notice and at its discretion.

(2) Liability of Sprint Media when using Royal Mail or other carrier to transport goods

(a) The value of the property intended to be carried and/or delivered by Sprint Media and also the amount of any consequential loss which might arise from damage or loss to or delay in the arrival of the said property are matters which are better known to and/or more readily ascertainable by the Buyer than Sprint Media; indeed to some extent they cannot be known by Sprint Media but are under the control of the Buyer.

(b) In the circumstances Sprint Media limits its liability for any damage caused to the Buyer as defined below to amounts which are not out of proportion to its charges and which directly relate to the liability given to Sprint Media by Royal Mail in its Code of Practice and any courier contractors that it chooses to use. Sprint Media strongly urges Buyers using Sprint Media to post materials via Royal Mail to verify the level of compensation, and to note the exceptions imposed by Royal Mail as to the applicability of its Code of Practice. Where the Buyer requires consequential loss insurance this can be achieved via Royal Mail Special Delivery, and the Buyer must inform Sprint Media at the time of quotation that this service is required.

(c) In order that the Buyer is aware of the level of compensation that may be claimed by Sprint Media from Royal Mail and courier companies, Sprint Media will declare, where asked, details of the companies involved in carrying goods on its behalf. Further, it will copy to the Buyer, when asked, the standard terms of contract operated by these organisations, so that the Buyer can see the level of compensation that may be claimed.

(d) Where a claim arises Sprint Media will pursue the claim with the third party with due diligence, and will not be liable to pay any money or other form of compensation until such time as that compensation is agreed and paid by the Agent, and will under no circumstance be liable for a higher level of compensation than that which is obtainable from the Agent. At all times the Buyer will provide Sprint Media with information in such a form and at such a time as to allow Sprint Media to pursue its claim within the requirements of the terms of contract agreed with the Agent.

(e) Sprint Media urges Buyers to make their own arrangements directly with a carrier of their choice for the collection of goods from Sprint Media's premises and delivery to their specified addresses. For the sake of clarity Sprint Media makes clear that 'next day', 'three day', 'first class', 'mailsort', 'advertising mail' and other delivery services by Royal Mail or other courier service which carry an explicit delivery period do not always achieve that delivery period. Sprint Media cannot accept any responsibility for the failure to achieve delivery by the designated time.

(6) Checking the weight and thickness of Input Material

(a) Sprint Media specifically does not guarantee to check the weight or thickness of Input Material and other items upon arrival and before posting and does not inform Buyers prior to the mailing of any variation in the weight of a leaflet or other item from that declared by the Buyer unless the Buyer asks in writing for this to be done.

(b) If a Buyer has provided a weight and/or thickness of their own mail shot for a quote which is in anyway inaccurate to the agreed finished mail shot weight and/or thickness then the Buyer will be liable to pay all extra costs incurred on the campaign, including but not restricted to additional postage costs, additional envelope costs and extra labour costs.

(7) The filling of envelopes

Sprint Media takes all due care in the activity of filling envelopes. However it is not possible to guarantee that small numbers of envelopes will not be filled exactly as required. In placing the order the Buyer acknowledges that it is not possible within the constraints of the time available for Sprint Media to check each and every envelope and package against occasional errors caused by machine or human error.

(8) The dispatch of excess Input Material

(a) Where the Buyer provides Sprint Media with Input Material or where Sprint Media provide the Input Material and there are excess items after the Services have been performed, Sprint Media shall dispatch the excess items to the Buyer at the Buyer's expense in such manner as the Buyer wishes and if the Buyer fails to indicate how such items should be despatched within 14 days of service of a notice by Sprint Media requesting such information then the items will be despatched to the Buyer at the Buyer's expense in such manner as Sprint Media may decide, or destroyed, at Sprint Media's sole discretion.

(b) Where the Buyer requests that Sprint Media keep input material either prior to or subsequent to a mailing, Sprint Media reserves the right to charge for such storage at a rate of £10.00 per pallet (or part thereof) per week (or part thereof). Sprint Media will not impose this charge without first giving one week's notice in writing of its intention to charge for storage.

(9) Postal Suppression

(a) Where the Buyer wishes to suppress certain establishments from the send list a list of the establishment names and Postcodes must be provided to Sprint Media 14 days prior to the delivery time.

(10) Buyer's obligations:

The Buyer:-

(a) shall ensure that all Input Material is provided on or before, but not after, the deadline dates set by Sprint Media.

(b) acknowledges that failure to meet the deadline dates set by Sprint Media including, but not limited to, the clearance of their funds with Sprint Media will delay their campaign delivery date.
