(vi) BoxHaul believes the Member is in breach of any of the policies and guidelines of BoxHaul as provided to the Visitor in writing.8.4 The Member may terminate this agreement without cause on the provision of not less than 30 days written notice to BoxHaul. In such event:

(ii) all rights granted to the Member hereunder shall cease on the date of termination.8.5 Termination of this agreement shall not affect the rights of either party accruing or accrued prior to the termination of this agreement.8.6 Where BoxHaul suspends the Member’s access to one or more of the Platform, subject to BoxHaul receiving a written request for the Member in respect of the same, BoxHaul shall not unreasonably refuse to permit the Member continuing access to the “My Loads” and “Quotes” functions of the Platform and to the Member’s historical data saved within the Platform, subject to payment of all outstanding Subscription Fees and any additional fees agreed between the parties in respect of the same.8.7 Where the Member’s access to the Platform is terminated by the Member for any reason, or is terminated or suspended by BoxHaul for any of the reasons set out in this clause 8, the Subscription Fees and any additional fees paid by the Member to BoxHaul shall not be refunded. In all other circumstances, the Member’s right to a refund will be as set out in the applicable Refund Policy, as published from time to time on the Platform.8.8 Clauses 2, 4, 5 (to the extent of any unpaid charges) 6, 8.7, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13 and 19, and all provisions required for their interpretation, shall survive termination of these Terms for any reason.

9. BOXHAUL’S LIABILITY

9.1 BoxHaul relies on third-party providers (such as network providers, data centres and telecommunication providers) to make the Platform available to Visitors. Whilst BoxHaul takes all reasonable steps available to BoxHaul to provide Visitors with a good level of service, the Visitor acknowledges and agrees that BoxHaul does not warrant that the Platform shall be uninterrupted or fault-free at all times. BoxHaul therefore shall not be liable in any way for any losses the Visitor may suffer as a result of delays or failures of the Platform as a result of BoxHaul’s service providers.9.2 BoxHaul takes reasonable precautions to protect the Platform from malicious code and third-party attacks, however, BoxHaul is not liable for any loss or damage caused by a third-party distributed denial-of-service attack, viruses or other technologically harmful material that may infect a Visitor’s computer equipment, computer programs, data or other proprietary material due to their use of the Platform or to their downloading of any material posted on it, or on any website linked to it.9.3 The material displayed on the Platform is provided without any guarantees, conditions or warranties as to its accuracy. Subject to the exceptions set out in the last paragraph of this clause 9, below, BoxHaul shall not be liable for losses that result from its failure to comply with these Terms that fall into the following categories:
(i) consequential, indirect or special losses;
(ii) loss of profits, income or revenue;
(iii) loss of savings or anticipated savings, interest or production;
(iv) loss of business or business benefits;
(v) loss of contracts;
(vi) loss of opportunity or expectations;
(vii) loss of goodwill and/or reputation;
(viii) loss of marketing and/or public relations time and/or opportunities;
(ix) loss of data; or
(x) loss of management or office timeor any other losses howsoever arising and whether caused by tort (including negligence), breach of contract or otherwise, even if foreseeable.9.4 Nothing in these Terms shall limit in any way BoxHaul’s liability:
(i) for death or personal injury caused by BoxHaul’s negligence;
(ii) for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; or
(iii) for any matter for which it would be illegal for BoxHaul to exclude, or attempt to exclude, BoxHaul’s liability.9.5 If BoxHaul fails to comply with these Terms, BoxHaul shall be entitled to be given a reasonable opportunity to rectify any errors and to re-perform its obligations. If BoxHaul’s failure to comply with its obligations is not remedied following such reasonable opportunity then, subject always to preceding paragraphs of this clause 9, BoxHaul’s total liability for all losses, damages, costs, claims and expenses howsoever arising shall be limited in the aggregate to the total amount of the Subscription Fees received by BoxHaul from the Member during the 12 month period prior to the date on which the event giving rise to the claim first occurred.

10. INDEMNITY

The Member hereby indemnifies BoxHaul in full and on demand against all costs (including reasonable legal costs), claims, damages, losses and expenses arising as a result of any breach by the Member of these Terms, or of any claim or action brought in connection with the Delivery Service; any information the Member provides via the Platform or any other communication with any other Visitor; and/or infringement of Intellectual Property Rights or any right of a third party.

(i) reproducing, copying, editing, transmitting, uploading or incorporating into any other materials, any of the Platform including without limitation, any information, articles, photographs, images or submissions made available to the Visitor using the Platform; and
(ii) removing, modifying, altering or using any registered or unregistered marks/logos/design owned by BoxHaul and/or BoxHaul’s licensors, and doing anything which may be seen to take unfair advantage of, or that may damage, the reputation and goodwill of BoxHaul or could be considered an infringement of any of the rights in the intellectual property rights owned by and/or licensed to BoxHaul.11.5 If a Visitor prints off, copies or downloads any part of the Platform in breach of these Terms, their right to use the Platform will cease immediately and they must, at BoxHaul’s request, return or destroy any copies they have made.11.6 The Member hereby grants BoxHaul a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, sub-licensable and royalty-free licence to process, edit, remove, and use all Reviews, Submissions and Accreditations (and any intellectual property rights therein) on the Platform for any purpose whatsoever.

12. DATA PROTECTION AND PRIVACY

12.1 The Member and BoxHaul shall comply with the Data Protection Laws.12.2 For the purposes of this clause 12, ‘Data Protection Laws’ shall mean all applicable data protection and privacy laws and regulations in the performance of its obligations set out under these Terms, including but not limited to the EU General Data Protection Regulation 2016/679 and all other successor legislation and regulations thereto.12.3 BoxHaul will be the data controller (as the term is defined in the Data Protection Laws) of any personal data that any Member (including a Visitor) shares directly with BoxHaul as a user of the Platform and services. Where data is processed by BoxHaul as a data controller, such processing is carried out in accordance with BoxHaul’s Privacy Policy.12.4 If the Member uses the Platform and services for the purpose of providing Delivery Services to or receiving Delivery Services from other users and send, receive or upload personal information into the Member’s member area, which BoxHaul then stores it in its database, the Member will be the data controller of such personal data, and BoxHaul will be a data processor of such personal data and will:
(i) act strictly in accordance with the Member’s lawful and reasonable instructions (which may be received via their use of the Platform and/or services) unless applicable law requires otherwise, in which case BoxHaul shall inform the Member of that legal requirement before processing (unless that law prohibits such information on important grounds of public interest). BoxHaul shall inform the Member if it becomes aware of an instruction by the Member that, in BoxHaul’s opinion, infringes the Data Protection Laws;
(ii) ensure that its personnel that are authorised to process the personal data in connection with the provision of the Platform and/or services, have committed themselves to confidentiality or are under an appropriate statutory obligation of confidentiality;
(iii) implement appropriate technical and organisational security measures to protect the personal data in accordance with Data Protection Laws;
(iv) enable the Member to access, rectify, erase, restrict and transmit any personal data processed by BoxHaul on their behalf;
(v) if a data subject requests information from BoxHaul concerning the processing of personal data by a Member, promptly forward the request to the Member;
(vi) provide reasonable assistance to enable BoxHaul to comply with the Member’s obligations under Data Protection Law, including using appropriate technical and organisational measures to assist the Member in responding to data subject access requests; and
(vii) make available to the Member all information necessary to demonstrate compliance with the obligations set out in this clause 12, and allow for and contribute to audits, including inspections, conducted by or on behalf of the Member or ensure that BoxHaul and/or any sub-processor will conduct audits using external auditors at least once per year.12.5 The Member may delete or request in writing the deletion or return of all personal data that BoxHaul process on their behalf on termination of the provision to the Member of Platform and/or services or at any time following termination of the same. Where the Member has not deleted the personal data prior to the termination of the provision to them of Platform and/or services, BoxHaul shall provide the “Storage Service” free of charge for a period of at least 90 working days following the date of termination. Thereafter BoxHaul may terminate the Storage Service at any time without notice, and in such event, BoxHaul shall delete all personal data processed on their behalf unless otherwise required by applicable law. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where personal data that BoxHaul processes on the Member’s behalf forms part of the record of a transaction between the Member and another Member, such other Member may be a joint data controller of such personal data and BoxHaul may be required to retain such data on behalf of the other Member. In such an event, the Member may receive a copy of the personal data, but it shall not be deleted.12.6 The Member acknowledges and accepts that any data subject to which the personal data relates may have the right to request the deletion of their personal data or information at any time and may request that BoxHaul permanently delete all information and data held about that data subject from BoxHaul’s systems. In the event that a data subject exercises its rights in this clause 12, BoxHaul shall notify the Member and they shall promptly and permanently delete all personal data held about that data subject from BoxHaul’s systems. In the event that the Member has not done so within a reasonable time, and has not notified BoxHaul in writing of any requirement for BoxHaul to retain the personal data, BoxHaul reserves the right to remove such personal data and shall not be liable in any way for any loss or damage suffered by the Member arising from such data subject exercising their rights.12.7 The Member shall ensure that their collection and use of any personal data, accessed through the Platform and services, complies with the Data Protection Laws. The Member hereby indemnifies BoxHaul against all losses, liabilities, costs and expenses (including but not limited to legal costs) arising from or incurred by reason of the Member’s failure to comply with this clause.12.8 The Member hereby gives BoxHaul a general consent to engage sub-processors to process the personal data. BoxHaul shall make details of its sub-processors available to the Member on request. Where BoxHaul intends to add a new sub-processor, BoxHaul shall make details of such new sub-processor available on the Platform at least 7 days (“Sub-processor Notice Period”) before transferring any personal data to a new sub-processor. The Member shall notify BoxHaul during the Sub-processor Notice Period if they object to the new sub-processor. If the Member does not object to the sub-processor during the Sub-processor Notice Period, the Member shall be deemed to have accepted the sub-processor. If the Member has raised a reasonable objection to the new sub-processor, and the parties have failed to agree on a solution within the Sub-Processor Notice Period time, the Member shall have the right to terminate their use of the Platform and these Terms. During the Sub-Processor Notice Period, BoxHaul shall not transfer any personal data to the sub-processor.12.9 BoxHaul shall enter into appropriate written agreements with all of its sub-processors on terms that include all the required obligations on data processors, as set out in the GDPR, including without limitation the Member’s right to conduct audits at the sub-processor, or ensure that the sub-processor will conduct audits using external auditors at least once per year. BoxHaul shall remain fully liable to the Member for the performance or non-performance of the sub-processor’s obligations.12.10 The Member hereby acknowledges and agrees that personal data may be passed between BoxHaul and the payment processor. It is the Member’s express instruction that BoxHaul so provide such personal data to the payment processor.12.11 Where BoxHaul receives personal data from one or more payment processors in respect of which BoxHaul reasonably believes that the Member is the data controller, the Member hereby instructs BoxHaul to process such personal data on their behalf.12.12 BoxHaul collects and processes such categories of personal data as are described in its Privacy Policy, and corporate data. Such personal and corporate data may include geo-location data derived from different sources including, but not limited to BoxHaul’s mobile application and integrated third-party fleet telematics, and other data entered by Members (collectively “the Data”).12.13 The Member acknowledges and agrees that, to the extent that the Data is owned by the Member, BoxHaul may transmit, collect, maintain, process, and use the Data to provide the services described in the Platform. Further, the Member acknowledges and agrees that BoxHaul may use the Data, strictly in anonymised and aggregated form, for the purpose of improving the services that BoxHaul offers, for analysis of routes and journeys and for the creation of reports.

13. CONFIDENTIALITY

If the Member chooses, or is provided with a user identification code, password or any other piece of information as part of BoxHaul’s security procedures, the Member must treat such information as confidential, and they must not disclose it to any third party. BoxHaul has the right to disable any user identification code or password, whether chosen by the Member or allocated by BoxHaul, at any time, if in BoxHaul’s opinion the Member has failed to comply with any of the provisions of these Terms. The Member agrees that they shall not use identification codes or passwords of another person or entity without BoxHaul’s permission.Whilst BoxHaul agrees to keep confidential any information of the Member which is, or should by its very nature be, treated as confidential, in the event that BoxHaul is required to disclose such information in accordance with law or regulatory authority (e.g. to HMRC in respect of Value Added Tax), BoxHaul shall not be prevented by clause 12 or this clause 13 from doing so.

14. NOTICES

All notices given by the Member to BoxHaul must be given to BoxHaul using the contact details set out in the Platform. BoxHaul shall give notice to the Member by posting details on the Platform, by using the mobile phone number, e-mail or postal address the Member provided on registration, or such other e-mail or postal address as the Member notifies to BoxHaul in writing from time to time. By continuing to use the Platform, the Member agrees to BoxHaul notifying them by SMS, email or post using the contact details the Member has submitted to us for the purposes for which you have granted BoxHaul.Notice will be deemed received and properly served immediately when posted on the Platform, 24 hours after an SMS or e-mail is sent, or three days after the date of posting of any letter. In proving the service of any notice, it will be sufficient to prove, in the case of a letter, that such letter was properly addressed, stamped and placed in the post and, in the case of an e-mail, that such e-mail was sent to the specified e-mail address of the addressee.

15. SEVERABILITY

If any of these Terms are determined by any competent authority to be invalid, unlawful or unenforceable to any extent, such term, condition or provision will to that extent be severed from the remaining terms, conditions and provisions which will continue to be valid to the fullest extent permitted by law.

16. ENTIRE AGREEMENT

16.1 These Terms and any document expressly referred to in them constitute the whole terms between the Member and BoxHaul and supersede any previous arrangement, understanding or terms between the Member and BoxHaul relating to the subject matter of these Terms. Each party acknowledges that, in entering into these Terms, (and the documents referred to in it), neither of them has relied on any statement, representation, assurance or warranty (“Representation”) of any person (whether a party to these Terms or not) other than as expressly set out in these Terms.16.2 Each party agrees that the only rights and remedies available arising out of or in connection with a Representation shall be for breach of contract as provided in these terms and conditions.

17. VARIATION OF THESE TERMS

BoxHaul may amend these Terms at any time on the provision of notice in writing or via publication of the updated Terms on the Platform.

18. FORCE MAJEURE

BoxHaul shall not be in breach of these Terms nor liable for delay in performing, or failure to perform, any of its obligations under these Terms if such delay or failure result from events, circumstances or causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to any of the following:

A waiver by BoxHaul of any default shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent default. No waiver by BoxHaul of any of these Terms shall be effective unless it is expressly stated to be a waiver and is communicated to the Member in writing.20.2 BoxHaul reserves the right to use third-party suppliers or sub-contractors at any time and in any way in respect of the performance of BoxHaul’s obligations under these Terms.

SECTION B: SHIPPERS

This Section B shall apply to each Member when they are acting in their capacity as a Shipper. The Member is a Shipper when they request Delivery Services via the Platform, referred to herein as “posting a load” or making a direct booking.

1. BOOKING PROCESS

1.1 When a Shipper posts a load, the details of their request will be made available to one or more specified Hauliers (“direct booking”) or all Hauliers (“posting a load”) via the applicable Platform.1.2 In the case of the Shipper posting a load, one or more Hauliers may provide the Shipper with a quote setting out the charges and other terms applicable to the provision of the Delivery Services based on the information in the Shipper’s request (“Quote”) via the Platform. Upon acceptance of a quote, the Shipper will place an order confirmation through the Platform with the Haulier for performance of the Delivery Services (a “Booking”).1.3 In the case of the Shipper making a direct booking, the Haulier(s) will agree in writing with the Shipper the charges and other terms applicable to the provision of the Delivery Services. Agreement between the parties of such terms and logging of the delivery on the Platform will create a “Booking”.1.4 The Platform allows for the automated placing of Bookings between a Shipper and a Haulier without any human intervention by BoxHaul. Quotes are based on the information the Shipper provides when posting a load for delivery and details of the Delivery Services are recorded when the Shipper and Haulier agree the terms of the Delivery Services. BoxHaul does not check the Shipper’s request, the Quote or any of the terms and conditions applicable to a Booking. It is therefore essential that the Shipper correctly enter all details required for the Booking so that the correct Delivery Services and charges are displayed, and that both the Shipper and the Haulier check all Quotes and other terms and conditions of Delivery Services carefully.1.5 A contract for the Delivery Services will only be formed between a Shipper and a Haulier where the Shipper accepts the Haulier’s Quote or the Shipper and Haulier agree terms and conditions for the provision of the Delivery Services.1.6 The Shipper acknowledges and agrees that once the Shipper has accepted a Quote from a Haulier or agreed terms and conditions to purchase a Delivery Service, this will constitute a binding contract between the Shipper and the Haulier on the terms set out in the applicable Quote or as otherwise agreed between the Shipper and the Haulier, and that the Shipper shall comply with the Delivery Agreement in respect of such Booking.1.7 The Shipper is responsible for making payment to the Haulier, in accordance with the payment terms agreed at the time of booking.1.8 The Shipper shall comply with all policies and guidelines of BoxHaul.

2. SHIPPER OBLIGATIONS AND PROHIBITIONS

2.1 All information uploaded onto the Platform by the Shipper shall be in the format required by BoxHaul and shall relate strictly and solely to the Delivery Services.
The Shipper is strictly prohibited from:
(i) posting loads or making Bookings on behalf of any other person or organisation; or
(ii) posting loads or making direct bookings where the transportation of such load would be unlawful or likely to cause loss or damage to any party.2.2 The Shipper shall not conduct any direct marketing using personal information (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include all email addresses and telephone numbers) that came into the Shipper’s possession through the Shipper’s use of and activities on the Platform, nor will the Shipper disclose such personal information to any third party without BoxHaul’s express written consent. Furthermore the Shipper shall not include in any information uploaded to the Platform or any other communication with Hauliers a link to any URL located outside the Platform, nor any advertising for any product or service.

3. SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION

3.1 In the event of termination of this agreement or suspension or termination of the Shipper’s access to the Platform, the Shipper shall make full payment for all Bookings made through the Platform on or before the date of termination or suspension.

SECTION C: HAULIERS

This Section C shall apply to the Member when they are acting in their capacity as a Haulier. The Member is a Haulier if they respond to a request for Delivery Services via the Platform.

1. BOOKING PROCESS

1.1 When the Haulier sees a request via the Platform, the Haulier has the option to provide a quote to the Shipper via the Platform, which BoxHaul’s Commission (“Boxhaul Booking Fee”) is applied on, with the total amount setting out the charges to provide the Delivery Services (“Quote”). This shall constitute a contractual offer to the Shipper to perform the Delivery Services on the terms set out in the Quote or otherwise agreed between the Haulier and the Shipper.1.2 When a Shipper approaches the Haulier with a direct booking, the Haulier may agree in writing the terms of the Delivery Services with such Shipper.1.3 The Platform allows for the automated placing of Bookings between the Haulier and a Shipper without any human intervention by BoxHaul. BoxHaul does not check the Shipper’s request or the Haulier’s Quote or any other terms and conditions applicable to the Booking. It is therefore essential that the Haulier carefully reviews all details of the request, and checks each Quote carefully before sending it to the Shipper and all other applicable terms and conditions carefully before agreeing them with the Shipper.1.4 The Shipper’s acceptance of a Quote, or agreement between a Shipper and the Haulier of the terms and conditions for the performance of Delivery Services, will place a booking with the Haulier for the Delivery Services through the Platform (a “Booking”) and a contract for the Delivery Services will be formed between the Haulier and the Shipper.1.5 The Haulier acknowledges and agrees that once a Quote has been accepted by the applicable Shipper, or terms and conditions agreed between a Shipper and the Haulier, to engage the Haulier to provide a Delivery Service, this will constitute a binding contract between the Haulier and the Shipper on the terms set out in the applicable Quote or otherwise agreed between a Shipper and the Haulier, and that the Haulier shall comply with the Delivery Agreement in respect of such Booking.1.6 The Haulier is responsible for performing the Delivery Services.

2. HAULIER OBLIGATIONS AND PROHIBITIONS

2.1 All information uploaded onto the Platform by the Haulier shall be in the format required by BoxHaul and shall relate strictly and solely to the Delivery Services.2.2 The Haulier shall comply with all policies and guidelines of BoxHaul. BoxHaul’s policies can be provided to the Haulier in writing. BoxHaul may make amendments to these policies from time to time and notice of such amends will be provided via the Platform.
The Haulier is strictly prohibited from:
(i) providing their contact information during their performance of the Delivery Services unless otherwise formally authorised by the Shipper to communicate directly with any specified stakeholder associated with the completion of the Delivery Service;
(ii) co-loading between Shippers without each Shipper’s written permission; or
(iii) holding goods to ransom.2.3 The Haulier shall not conduct any direct marketing using any information (which, for the avoidance of doubt, shall include all email addresses and telephone numbers) that came into the Haulier’s possession through the Haulier’s use of and activities on the Platform, nor will the Haulier disclose such personal information to any third party without BoxHaul’s express written consent. Furthermore, the Haulier shall not include in any information uploaded to the Platform or any other communication with any Shippers any link to any URL located outside the Platform, nor any advertising for any product or service other than the Haulier’s Delivery Services.

3. ADDITIONAL WARRANTIES

3.1 The Haulier hereby warrants, represents and guarantees that the Haulier has the right to promote, sell and distribute its Delivery Service(s).3.2 The Haulier warrants, represents and guarantees that the Haulier shall comply with all applicable legislation in respect of the service information and that the service information shall not infringe any intellectual property rights, or any other rights of any third party.

4. SUSPENSION AND TERMINATION

In the event of termination of this agreement or suspension or termination of the Haulier’s access to the Platform, the Haulier shall fulfil all Bookings placed with the Haulier through the Platform on or before the date of termination or suspension.
