LIABILITY: (a) Except as expressly provided in these Terms and Conditions, Foodbank New Zealand excludes, to the fullest extent permitted by law, all warranties, representations and conditions whether implied by law, trade, custom or otherwise. Where Foodbank New Zealand is liable to a Customer for a breach of implied warranty or condition that may not be excluded, Foodbank New Zealand’s liability will, to the extent permitted by law, be limited to any one or more of the following (at Foodbank New Zealand’s option): (i) in the case of the supply of goods under these Terms and Conditions (if any),: (A) the replacement of the goods or the supply of equivalent goods or the payment of the cost of replacing the goods or acquiring equivalent goods; (B) the repair of the goods or the payment of the cost of having the goods repaired; or (ii) in the case of the supply of services under these Terms and Conditions: (A) the supplying of the services again; or (B) the payment of the cost of having the services supplied again.

(c) The liability of Foodbank New Zealand (including Foodbank New Zealand’s officers, employees and agents) to the Customer, or any other person, for any and all loss or damage arising in relation to these Terms and Conditions and/or Advertisements (including from any errors or inaccuracies however caused, whether by negligence, system, software or press failure, mistake, mis-classifications, early, late or noninsertion of Advertisements, or loss or delay in the delivery of replies) will be limited to an amount equal to the cost of the space of the relevant Advertisement, provided that if the Customer does not advise Foodbank New Zealand of any error within five days of publication of the Advertisement Foodbank New Zealand will have no liability whatsoever.

Should such an event occur, Foodbank New Zealand will take responsibility to resurrect sites and links, and the Customer has the right to cancel the particular contract for the affected advertising at no penalty if such an occurrence results in the site being down for more than 7 working days (working days being Monday to Friday inclusive, but excluding statutory holidays). In addition, Foodbank New Zealand will not be liable to the Customer for any error or inaccuracy in Advertisements placed by telephone. (e) The guarantees contained in the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 are expressly excluded where the Customer acquires or holds itself out as acquiring goods or services from Foodbank New Zealand for the purposes of a business.

19. NO WAIVER: If at any time Foodbank New Zealand does not enforce any of these terms and conditions or grants the Customer time or other indulgence, Foodbank New Zealand shall not be construed as having waived that term or condition or its right to later enforce that or any other term or condition.

 

20. ASSIGNMENT: The Customer may not: (a) assign any of its rights under any agreement or any part of an agreement to which these Terms & Conditions apply (including the rights to advertising space allocated in accordance with such an agreement) to any third party; or (b) place Advertisements (whether directly or indirectly) on behalf of third party advertiser(s) (whether as an agent or otherwise), except on terms previously agreed with Foodbank New Zealand. Advertisements are placed by a Customer on behalf of a third party advertiser where, for example (but without limitation), the Advertisement promotes or otherwise notifies readers as to the goods or services of the third party advertiser rather than the Customer.

 

21. GOVERNING LAW: These Terms and Conditions are governed by, and construed in accordance with the law in force in New Zealand.
