13. Intellectual Property Infringement; Counterfeit goods

  1. We respect the intellectual property rights of others, and we make efforts not to publish any material that is subject to third party copyright, trademark or other legal protections. If you believe any material on the website infringes your intellectual property rights, please inform us by submitting an Infringement Complaint.
  2. DHL easySHOP takes seriously the problems caused by Internet advertising and sale of counterfeit goods - which are also known as "knock offs", replicas, faux or fake products. Counterfeit goods are imitations of well-known brands. They are typically sold at prices lower than the genuine product, and they almost always bear what looks like the genuine product's trademark or logo. Advertisements for these products may or may not specify that they are replicas, and they are often difficult to distinguish from the genuine product - particularly in online advertisements where you don't have the chance to examine the goods themselves. While we make every effort to ensure that our service is not used for the sale of counterfeit goods, and we carefully select the merchants and products linked to our websites, we cannot guarantee that every item advertised and/or delivered through our cross-border shopping service is 100 0x0p+0uthentic. But we do commit to investigate all problems.
  3. If you are the rightful owner of a trademark or other intellectual property, and you know or suspect that your rights are being infringed by the advertising of counterfeit goods on any DHL easySHOP website and/or the shipment of such goods through our international delivery services, please inform us by submitting an Infringement Complaint.
  4. After we receive your complaint, we will conduct an investigation. If we determine that counterfeit goods infringing your rights are indeed being advertised and/or distributed through DHL easySHOP, we will take appropriate action such as:
  5. - removing the advertisements for the infringing product
  6. - prohibiting the merchant of the product infringing such intellectual property from advertising on DHL easySHOP websites
  7. - disabling the customer's account if the customer is knowingly importing counterfeit goods using DHL easySHOP services
  8. - notifying law enforcement authorities

23.Our Receiving Procedure.

We will in good faith receive packages delivered to your DHL easySHOP suite address. We will notify you when they are received, advise you of the actual cost of duties, taxes and international shipping/handling, and seek your instructions for shipping or storage of the packages. We will not accept parcels or packages delivered on a COD (Cash On Delivery) basis.

DHL easySHOP will not be liable for products lost or damaged in transit from the merchant to the DHL easySHOP export facility. We reserve the right to refuse delivery at the DHL easySHOP export facility if, upon inspection of the outside of the package, it is obvious that the product is damaged or incomplete. In such a case we will refuse the package from the courier. In case an outbound shipment is found to be damaged, we will contact you for instructions on whether we should return the shipment to the merchant, or to release an destroy it.

25. Inspection of Packages.

DHL easySHOP has the right (upon receipt, during storage, or in preparing for export shipment) to open and inspect any package, or part thereof, for security purposes and to verify compliance with export and import laws and to confirm the product description and other information you supply, without prior notice and without liability to you. However we have no duty or responsibility to inspect packages for non-obvious damage or breakage, and we do not accept responsibility for the accuracy of product descriptions and other information provided by you.
  2. If we discover that the description of the contents of the package or other information you supply is not accurate, then, depending on the specific situation, we may request you to provide additional documentation about the contents and/or their value, or we may refuse to ship it (you will be notified), or we may correct the information.

26. Prohibited Items.

  1. DHL easySHOP will place on ‘hold’ all products that are restricted or deemed prohibited for export or import to the destination country. Additionally, any product deemed unsafe for international transportation will be prohibited for shipment and placed on hold. See sections 35and 36 below and our Prohibited items FAQ . After you have been notified of the ‘hold’ status, we will, at your request, arrange for the item to be either returned to the merchant, shipped to an alternative domestic address (as applicable), or disposed of. Applicable charges will apply. You will have 14 days to advise disposition of the product. If you have not responded to our notification within 14 days, the product may be destroyed.

  2. Day 31 – day 45 is 5 per shipment per day.
  3. After day 45, the shipment(s) will be destroyed automatically.
During this period, if we do not hear from the customer, or are given any shipping instructions, then shipment will be deemed abandoned, and we may dispose it in any manner permitted by law or liquidate it to cover our storage costs.
You will receive two reminders to release your shipment. The first reminder will be sent on the 10th day of storage. The second one will be sent on the 40th day of storage.

Should you determine that you no longer wish to ship items stored in your suite, for whatever reason, you are entitled to request their disposal. Where products can be returned to the merchant, DHL easySHOP will arrange this at your cost. Any correspondence required with the merchant must be conducted by you. If the products cannot be returned to the merchant, DHL easySHOP will arrangedisposal.

29. Unidentified Recipients.

Occasionally we receive packages where the appropriate recipient cannot be identified, e.g., the customer name and/or the suite address may be missing or mis-stated. If you have ordered a product and there is an unusual delay in receiving notification from DHL easySHOP that there is a package waiting for you, you should contact Customer Service and describe the product you are expecting so that we can inspect unidentified packages and see if yours is there.
  1. Additional handling fees in identifying the recipient may apply if your package was incorrectly or inadequately addressed.
  2. Any goods received at our export facility for which an owner cannot be determined (after we have made reasonable investigative efforts) will be held for 90 days.

International shipment and delivery

30. Shipment of Packages.

When you request packages to be shipped, and you have paid the total cost specified in your 'Shipment Release' form – including all duties, taxes, shipping, any fuel surcharge, any country-specific customs or import fees, and any applicable handling charges and storage costs (which may differ from the estimate given using the Shipping Cost Calculator - see section 10) - DHL easySHOP will arrange international shipment to any country listed in the pull-down menu on the DHL easySHOP website and deliver the packages to the your delivery address specify in your profile.

31. Appointment of Agent.

You appoint Darlington Postal Company, a company incorporated under the laws of Delaware, with an address at PO BOX 148, Darlington, MD 21034 (“Darlington Post”) to act as your agent to manage all export procedures, including, but not limited to, filing Electronic Export Information for shipments originating in the United States destined for your address in your home country. Darlington Post will perform these functions based on the information you provid.

32. Accurate Contents and Value Declaration. Payment of duty and tax

You appoint DHL easySHOP to manage all import and customs clearance procedures. DHL easySHOP will perform these functions based on the information you provide. An accurate description of the contents of your package, and its value, is necessary for compliance with export and import laws. You will be required to provide a copy of the merchant’s invoice or order confirmation establishing the price paid for your goods. You are solely responsible for the correctness and accuracy of all information you provide when using the services of DHL easySHOP.You agree to indemnify and hold DHL easySHOP and its suppliers (which for purposes of these terms and conditions shall include Darlington Post) harmless from any liability for any under-declaration of value or other misrepresentations you might make. You acknowledge that:
  1. Packages may be inspected at any time by export and import authorities. Packages with misleading product descriptions or under-declared valuations may be delayed by the relevant Customs authorities, who may dispute and correct the declaration – in which case, you might possibly have to pay additional duty, fines or penalties.
  2. Assuming you have provided accurate information for the customs declaration and Customs does not dispute the value, the amount of tax and duty actually charged by your country’s Customs authority may differ from the amount you paid us. Here’s why:
    1. Tax and duty are based on the “dutiable value” of the goods. We calculate the tax and duty as accurately as we can, after your package is inspected, weighed and measured, and ready for dispatch at our export facility. You pay us those calculated amounts of tax and duty, along with our shipping charge, when you release your shipment. Your DHL easySHOP invoice includes a breakdown of the shipping charge, tax, and duty.
    2. We arrange payment of the duty and tax to local Customs authorities on your behalf. The actual tax and duty paid sometimes turns out to be higher or lower than the amount we calculated, for a number of reasons. For example, the Customs authority in your country may assign your goods a different customs code from the one we used; or Customs may (for whatever reason) use a different formula to calculate the duty; or the calculation may be affected by a change in currency exchange rates between the time of our calculation and the time the tax and duty is paid to Customs authorities. In such situations, you will not receive a refund or be charged extra for the difference; this is due to the administrative time and costs that such arrangements would require.

33. Shipping Charges.

As noted in section 10, the international shipping and handling charges generated by our Shipping Cost Calculator are estimates only. The Shipping Cost Calculator's estimate may differ from the final shipping charges which can only be determined once we have received the package at your DHL easySHOP address.
  1. You are responsible for payment of all actual international shipping and handling charges, even if they differ from the original estimated cost.
  2. Volumetric weight may apply on bulky, lightweight packages. Volumetric weight is calculated by multiplying height by width and length in inches and dividing by 305 to produce a weight expressed in kilos. (See our Volumetric Weight FAQ for full explanation).
  3. Your final cost will include any applicable country-specific government-mandated clearance fees in addition to duty, tax, shipping, and fuel surcharges if applicable.

34. Delivery.

  1. DHL easySHOP will make every reasonable effort to deliver the shipment to you according to our regular schedules, but these are not guaranteed and do not form part of the agreement between us. DHL easySHOP is not liable for any damage or loss caused by delays.
  2. Shipments can be delivered directly to most addresses (except post office boxes). However, in certain remote areas, you may be need to pick up your package from the closest DHL service point.

35. Compliance with Law: No Illegal Materials or Prohibited Goods.

  1. You will comply with all applicable export and import laws and regulations;
  2. DHL easySHOP will at all times comply with all applicable export and import laws, and we will refuse to ship any package which we know or have reason to suspect is in violation of such laws;

    2. Any dual use items that are subject to export license requirements; or
    3. any products that are intended to be used in chemical biological weapons, missile technology or nuclear proliferation.
  5. For items being exported from the US, you expressly agree not to divert, reship or forward any part of a shipment:
    1. to any country which the US Department of the Treasury, Office of Foreign Assets Control (OFAC) has designated as supporting international terrorism (currently Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Sudan, and Syria), or
