Last Updated: March 19, 2019
Welcome to Globe Connects Logistics (“Globe Connects Logistics”, “we”, “us”, or “our”). These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of our website, escrow, logistics, and related services (collectively, the “Services”).
Please read these Terms carefully. By using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use our Services.
1. Description of Services
Globe Connects Logistics provides comprehensive logistics solutions, including but not limited to freight forwarding, shipping management, cargo insurance, and secure escrow services for high-value transactions. Our services are designed to facilitate the secure and efficient movement and exchange of goods.
2. Escrow Services
a. Process: When you use our Escrow Services, Globe Connects Logistics acts as a neutral third party. We will hold the buyer’s funds in a secure, non-interest-bearing trust account. Upon the buyer’s confirmation of satisfactory receipt of the goods or fulfillment of the service as per the agreement between the buyer and seller, Globe Connects Logistics will release the funds to the seller, less any applicable fees.
b. Obligations: Both buyer and seller must agree to the terms of the transaction in writing before initiating the escrow process. Each party must provide accurate and complete information to Globe Connects Logistics.
c. Disputes: In the event of a dispute between the buyer and seller, Globe Connects Logistics will follow the dispute resolution process outlined in the specific Escrow Agreement signed by the parties. Globe Connects Logistics is not a judge or arbitrator and will only act upon the joint written instructions of both parties or a final order from a court of competent jurisdiction.
3. User Obligations and Conduct
As a user of our Services, you agree to:
- Provide accurate, current, and complete information as requested.
- Comply with all applicable local, state, national, and international laws and regulations, including customs and trade regulations.
- Refrain from using our Services for any illegal, fraudulent, or prohibited activities.
- Ensure that any goods shipped or involved in a transaction are legal, accurately described, and do not infringe on the intellectual property rights of others.
- Pay all fees and charges associated with the Services as agreed upon in a timely manner.
4. Fees and Payment
Fees for our Services will be detailed in a specific quote or service agreement provided to you. All fees are due and payable as specified in the invoice or agreement. Globe Connects Logistics reserves the right to hold goods or suspend services for non-payment.
5. Logistics and Shipping
a. Responsibility: Globe Connects Logistics will arrange for the transportation of goods as agreed. However, we are not liable for delays, damages, or losses caused by third-party carriers, acts of God, or circumstances beyond our reasonable control (Force Majeure).
b. Customs and Duties: The client (or their designated agent) is solely responsible for all customs duties, taxes, tariffs, and any required import/export documentation. Globe Connects Logistics can provide assistance with this process, but the ultimate legal and financial responsibility lies with the client.
c. Cargo Insurance: Globe Connects Logistics provides comprehensive cargo insurance options to protect your shipment against loss or damage during transit. While we strongly recommend securing coverage, insurance is not automatically included. Clients must explicitly request and purchase an insurance plan for their shipment. Please contact us for a quote and coverage details. Unless a specific insurance plan is purchased through Globe Connects Logistics, the shipment is not insured by us.
