You must include correct information (e.g., the address and phone number the payment credit card issuer has on file for you) when using our services. Incorrect information may cause delays in establishing service. All information received from you, including credit card and/or bank account information, will be treated in accordance with ShipSaving's Privacy Policy.

Without limiting this, if you incorrectly describe the dimensions and/or weight of your package, we may charge you any additional amounts we incur as a result, plus a $10 administration fee per case.

If you do not store any valid credit card details or bank account information on the system and have a lot of packages that receive an abnormal amount of additional charges due to incorrectly describing the dimensions and/or weight, ShipSaving will process to hold a certain deposit amount (based on how often and the amount of the additional charges) due to security reasons.

Users who add funds through Alipay will incur a corresponding deposit charge by the system for security.

We will use reasonable efforts to keep any payment information we have about you secure and ensure that our employees or agents who have access to this information do not make any unauthorized use, modification, reproduction, or disclosure of it. We may engage a third party to provide a secure payment transaction facility that allows you to pay online and, in this case, we will not receive your payment information.

Billing – ShipSaving's service fee and any other applicable fees due, including fees for postage or shipping (if applicable), will be automatically charged to the account holder's credit card or collected via direct account withdrawal from the account holder's bank account.

If two or more accounts are found with the same name and address associated with the accounts' payment methods, we reserve the right to consider these accounts are operated under the same user. In the event that one of these accounts has an outstanding balance, we may apply charges from the other account to cover the unpaid balance of another if the original account cannot be charged.

The billing entity for part or all of the services provided by ShipSaving may be that of an affiliate or partner of ShipSaving and you hereby consent to any such billing, including changes to the billing entity from time to time.

‍

STARTER VERSION SUBSCRIPTION

If you have enrolled in a monthly subscription billing plan, the conclusion of each monthly billing cycle occurs after your subscription period. There will be no imposition of a 3% credit card service fee for your monthly billing plan. However, a 3% credit card service fee will be applied when you utilize a credit card to recharge the account balance or withdraw funds from the account to the credit card.

Upon registration, you have the option to select a 14-day free trial or proceed without it. For instance, if you sign up on January 1st, the initial billing cycle will commence on January 14th and the subsequent billing cycles will commence on the 14th of each month. Alternatively, if you choose to upgrade the monthly billing plan, the new billing cycle will commence anew, starting from the same designated times.

In another scenario, if the number of shipments reaches the limit of the plan during a billing cycle, a new billing cycle will automatically start. For instance, if the plan allows 100 shipments per month and it begins on March 15th, if you reach 100 shipments within 10 days, the new billing cycle will start on March 25th, and the credit card will be charged the monthly fee accordingly.

Please be aware that if you choose to downgrade or cancel your plan in the middle of a billing cycle, there will be no refund for the service fees already charged, and the account will remain available for usage for the entire month of cancellation. If you have signed up for a free offer and wish to avoid incurring the monthly service fee, please ensure that you cancel the account before the free trial period ends.

You have the freedom to terminate the monthly service plan at any time. If you decide to terminate the plan during the free trial period, no service fees will be charged.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE

PLEASE READ THIS CLAUSE CAREFULLY AS IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE ANY AND ALL DISPUTES AGAINST SHIPSAVING ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM SHIPSAVING.

This clause (Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate) shall be construed under and be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act.

By agreeing to ShipSaving’s Terms and Conditions, you agree that any and all past, present and future disputes, claims or causes of action between you and ShipSaving or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries, ultimate parent and parent companies, partners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, shareholders, agents, licensors, subcontractors or suppliers, which arise out of or are related in any way to ShipSaving’s Terms and Conditions, the formation of ShipSaving’s Terms and Conditions, the validity or scope of this clause 26 (Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate), your Participation in or other access to or use of the Games or the Platform, or any other dispute between you and ShipSaving or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries, ultimate parent and parent companies, partners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, shareholders, agents, licensors, subcontractors or suppliers, including as to the arbitrability of any of the foregoing, and whether arising prior to or after your agreement to this clause  (Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate) (all of the foregoing, collectively “Disputes”), will be governed by the procedures set out below:

Whether to agree to arbitration is an important decision. It is your decision to make, and you ARE NOT REQUIRED TO rely solely on the information provided in these Terms and Conditions. You should take reasonable steps to conduct further research and, if you wish, consult with counsel of your choice.'

‍

INFORMAL COMPLAINT RESOLUTION

We want to address any concerns or Disputes you may have without the need for formal dispute resolution. Therefore, before filing any arbitration demand or other claim of any kind against ShipSaving or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries, ultimate parent and parent companies, partners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, shareholders, agents, licensors, subcontractors or suppliers, you agree to notify us in writing of the nature of your concern and/or Dispute and to try in good faith using best efforts to resolve any such Dispute using informal resolution.  Specifically, you agree to contact info@shipsaving.com by emailing a short summary and description of your complaint(s).  

In the event that any such complaint(s) are unable to be resolved by the informal dispute resolution process above, either party may, but no sooner than 30 (thirty) days from the commencement of said process, initiate an arbitration in accordance with the procedures and terms as follows:

‍

ARBITRATION

Both You and ShipSaving agree that any and all Disputes, including without limitation any question regarding the existence, validity, enforceability, or termination of these Terms and Conditions and/or this clause (Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate), shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA), the Rules of which are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this clause.

The parties further agree that any unresolved controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this contract, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

The arbitration shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. The arbitrator(s) shall award to the prevailing party, if any, as determined by the arbitrators, all of their costs and fees. "Costs and fees" mean all reasonable pre-award expenses of the arbitration, including the arbitrators' fees, administrative fees, travel expenses, out-of-pocket expenses such as copying and telephone, court costs, witness fees, and attorneys' fees.

In agreeing to this binding commitment to arbitrate your Disputes, you agree that you waive any right to proceed in a court of law or to have your claims heard by a jury. The arbitration shall:

  1. be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator in the English language;
  2. be held virtually and not in person for all proceedings related to the arbitration, except by mutual agreement of all parties;
  3. be limited to one deposition per party, except by mutual agreement of all parties.

Furthermore, in cases where neither party’s claim(s) or counterclaim(s) exceed $25,000, both parties agree to waive an arbitration hearing and resolve the dispute solely through submission of documents to the arbitrator. No award or procedural order made in the arbitration shall be published.

The AAA rules, as well as instructions on how to file an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, appear at adr.org, or you may call the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.

Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties. All documents and information disclosed during the arbitration proceedings shall be kept strictly confidential by the recipient and shall not be used by the recipient for any purpose other than for purposes of the arbitration or the enforcement of the arbitrator’s decision and award and shall not be disclosed except in confidence to persons who need to know for such purposes or as required by applicable law.

Both you and ShipSaving agree not to make any argument that the AAA is an inconvenient forum or otherwise incompetent or without authority or jurisdiction to hear any Dispute, and hereby expressly waive any and all such arguments thereto.

‍

INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION ONLY AND WAIVER OF COLLECTIVE ACTION

You and ShipSaving agree that an arbitration or any other proceeding to resolve a Dispute shall proceed in an individual capacity only, and neither you nor ShipSaving may bring a Dispute as a Collective Action. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND SHIPSAVING AGREE, NO ARBITRATOR OR JUDGE MAY CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS OR ENGAGE IN ANY COLLECTIVE ACTION.

Without limiting the generality of this clause (Individual Arbitration Only and Waiver of Collective Action) and as an example only, a claim to resolve a Dispute against ShipSaving will be deemed a Collective Action if:

  1. claims are filed or pursued concurrently by or on behalf of two or more persons or entities; and
  2. counsel for the two or more persons is the same, or share fees, or coordinate in any way.

For the purposes of this clause, the term ‘concurrently’ means that the claims are pending (filed but not resolved) at the same time.

‍

SURVIVAL OF OBLIGATIONS

THIS CLAUSE (DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE) SURVIVES THE TERMINATION OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR ANY REASON.

‍

JURY OR WAIVER TRIAL TERMS AND REGULATIONS

If both parties are unable to find a disclosure of the dispute, they agree to skip the court of law according to their constitution and statutory rights. Therefore, the dispute will be ended using the Arbitration Agreement. The procedure is selected due to the following reasons. It is quicker, more affordable, and generally less time-consuming than using the court of law. A user or the visitor of the ShipSaving site waives the jury-based court of law and agrees on using the Arbitration Agreement. If the Arbitration Agreement is unable to find the solution, a judge will be selected, once again without a jury. All the claims and disputes must be discussed, treated, and solved on an individual basis. According to the Terms of Use, you agree with the aforementioned point. The disputes also cannot be merged with claims or disputes of other users and must be treated independently.

‍

CONFIDENTIALITY TERMS

All the points of the claims or disputes and arbitrary agreements are strictly confidential and will not be shared with third parties in any form. The only exception is when a court of law is used. According to the law, one can share private and sensitive information with officials. The Terms of Use of ShipSaving will not prevent you from sharing the information and details with the court of law and lawyers. All other sharing, submitting, or providing the specifics is strictly forbidden and in serious cases when the user has shared the specifics, ShipSaving has the full right to reject the dispute without the use of a court of law or the use of Arbitrary Agreement. If the parts of the Arbitrary agreement are invalid under civil law or constitution, those sections will be removed from the agreement. Every user has the full right to waive all the points and sections of the arbitrary agreement and this action will not affect the end result of the dispute. The arbitration agreement will continue to be used after your relationship with ShipSaving is officially terminated. The company, ShipSaving, or the user has the right to bring a separate, individual action or according to the law in the small claim court.

‍

EMERGENCY EQUITABLE RELIEF

According to the arbitrary agreement, both parties in a dispute have the right to request emergency equitable relief. The sole purpose of this request is to maintain the status quo and can be used in the federal or state court of law. This request will not be considered as a waiver of any obligations or rights of a party.

‍

DISPUTES THAT ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR ARBITRATION

All computer frauds, forging of the data, abuse act, copyright violation, trade, or any use of the other party’s patent are not eligible for the arbitration agreement. In the aforementioned circumstances, both parties agree on seeking professional legal help to understand specific actions that are needed to resolve this at the local court. ShipSaving may be eligible for arbitration for the import and export laws from the United States and the same rules in other countries, based on the user location and the local law. ShipSaving is an online located company available for users globally.

‍

INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to defend, hold harmless and indemnify ShipSaving, its officers, directors, employees, and agents, from and against all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses (including but not limited to attorney’s and administrative fees) arising from:

  1. your use of and access to the Site, Services, and Software;
  2. your violation of any term of these Terms;
  3. your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any copyright, property, or privacy right;
  4. any claim that one of your submissions caused damage to a third-party.

This defense and indemnification obligation will survive these Terms and your use of the Site.

Please be aware that if you choose to downgrade or cancel your plan in the middle of a billing cycle, there will be no refund for the service fees already charged, and the account will remain available for usage for the entire month of cancellation.

  2. be held virtually and not in person for all proceedings related to the arbitration, except by mutual agreement of all parties;
  3. be limited to one deposition per party, except by mutual agreement of all parties.

Furthermore, in cases where neither party’s claim(s) or counterclaim(s) exceed $25,000, both parties agree to waive an arbitration hearing and resolve the dispute solely through submission of documents to the arbitrator. No award or procedural order made in the arbitration shall be published.

The AAA rules, as well as instructions on how to file an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, appear at adr.org, or you may call the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.

Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties. All documents and information disclosed during the arbitration proceedings shall be kept strictly confidential by the recipient and shall not be used by the recipient for any purpose other than for purposes of the arbitration or the enforcement of the arbitrator’s decision and award and shall not be disclosed except in confidence to persons who need to know for such purposes or as required by applicable law.

Both you and ShipSaving agree not to make any argument that the AAA is an inconvenient forum or otherwise incompetent or without authority or jurisdiction to hear any Dispute, and hereby expressly waive any and all such arguments thereto.

‍

INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION ONLY AND WAIVER OF COLLECTIVE ACTION

You and ShipSaving agree that an arbitration or any other proceeding to resolve a Dispute shall proceed in an individual capacity only, and neither you nor ShipSaving may bring a Dispute as a Collective Action. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND SHIPSAVING AGREE, NO ARBITRATOR OR JUDGE MAY CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS OR ENGAGE IN ANY COLLECTIVE ACTION.

Without limiting the generality of this clause (Individual Arbitration Only and Waiver of Collective Action) and as an example only, a claim to resolve a Dispute against ShipSaving will be deemed a Collective Action if:

  1. claims are filed or pursued concurrently by or on behalf of two or more persons or entities; and
  2. counsel for the two or more persons is the same, or share fees, or coordinate in any way.

For the purposes of this clause, the term ‘concurrently’ means that the claims are pending (filed but not resolved) at the same time.

‍

SURVIVAL OF OBLIGATIONS

THIS CLAUSE (DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE) SURVIVES THE TERMINATION OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR ANY REASON.

‍

JURY OR WAIVER TRIAL TERMS AND REGULATIONS

If both parties are unable to find a disclosure of the dispute, they agree to skip the court of law according to their constitution and statutory rights. Therefore, the dispute will be ended using the Arbitration Agreement. The procedure is selected due to the following reasons. It is quicker, more affordable, and generally less time-consuming than using the court of law. A user or the visitor of the ShipSaving site waives the jury-based court of law and agrees on using the Arbitration Agreement. If the Arbitration Agreement is unable to find the solution, a judge will be selected, once again without a jury. All the claims and disputes must be discussed, treated, and solved on an individual basis. According to the Terms of Use, you agree with the aforementioned point. The disputes also cannot be merged with claims or disputes of other users and must be treated independently.

‍

CONFIDENTIALITY TERMS

All the points of the claims or disputes and arbitrary agreements are strictly confidential and will not be shared with third parties in any form. The only exception is when a court of law is used. According to the law, one can share private and sensitive information with officials. The Terms of Use of ShipSaving will not prevent you from sharing the information and details with the court of law and lawyers. All other sharing, submitting, or providing the specifics is strictly forbidden and in serious cases when the user has shared the specifics, ShipSaving has the full right to reject the dispute without the use of a court of law or the use of Arbitrary Agreement. If the parts of the Arbitrary agreement are invalid under civil law or constitution, those sections will be removed from the agreement. Every user has the full right to waive all the points and sections of the arbitrary agreement and this action will not affect the end result of the dispute. The arbitration agreement will continue to be used after your relationship with ShipSaving is officially terminated. The company, ShipSaving, or the user has the right to bring a separate, individual action or according to the law in the small claim court.

‍

EMERGENCY EQUITABLE RELIEF

According to the arbitrary agreement, both parties in a dispute have the right to request emergency equitable relief. The sole purpose of this request is to maintain the status quo and can be used in the federal or state court of law. This request will not be considered as a waiver of any obligations or rights of a party.

‍

DISPUTES THAT ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR ARBITRATION

All computer frauds, forging of the data, abuse act, copyright violation, trade, or any use of the other party’s patent are not eligible for the arbitration agreement. In the aforementioned circumstances, both parties agree on seeking professional legal help to understand specific actions that are needed to resolve this at the local court. ShipSaving may be eligible for arbitration for the import and export laws from the United States and the same rules in other countries, based on the user location and the local law. ShipSaving is an online located company available for users globally.

‍

INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to defend, hold harmless and indemnify ShipSaving, its officers, directors, employees, and agents, from and against all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses (including but not limited to attorney’s and administrative fees) arising from:

  1. your use of and access to the Site, Services, and Software;
  2. your violation of any term of these Terms;
  3. your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any copyright, property, or privacy right;
  4. any claim that one of your submissions caused damage to a third-party.

This defense and indemnification obligation will survive these Terms and your use of the Site.

Upon registration, you have the option to select a 14-day free trial or proceed without it. For instance, if you sign up on January 1st, the initial billing cycle will commence on January 14th and the subsequent billing cycles will commence on the 14th of each month. Alternatively, if you choose to upgrade the monthly billing plan, the new billing cycle will commence anew, starting from the same designated times.

In another scenario, if the number of shipments reaches the limit of the plan during a billing cycle, a new billing cycle will automatically start. For instance, if the plan allows 100 shipments per month and it begins on March 15th, if you reach 100 shipments within 10 days, the new billing cycle will start on March 25th, and the credit card will be charged the monthly fee accordingly.

Please be aware that if you choose to downgrade or cancel your plan in the middle of a billing cycle, there will be no refund for the service fees already charged, and the account will remain available for usage for the entire month of cancellation. If you have signed up for a free offer and wish to avoid incurring the monthly service fee, please ensure that you cancel the account before the free trial period ends.

You have the freedom to terminate the monthly service plan at any time. If you decide to terminate the plan during the free trial period, no service fees will be charged.

DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE

PLEASE READ THIS CLAUSE CAREFULLY AS IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE ANY AND ALL DISPUTES AGAINST SHIPSAVING ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM SHIPSAVING.

This clause (Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate) shall be construed under and be subject to the Federal Arbitration Act.

By agreeing to ShipSaving’s Terms and Conditions, you agree that any and all past, present and future disputes, claims or causes of action between you and ShipSaving or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries, ultimate parent and parent companies, partners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, shareholders, agents, licensors, subcontractors or suppliers, which arise out of or are related in any way to ShipSaving’s Terms and Conditions, the formation of ShipSaving’s Terms and Conditions, the validity or scope of this clause 26 (Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate), your Participation in or other access to or use of the Games or the Platform, or any other dispute between you and ShipSaving or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries, ultimate parent and parent companies, partners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, shareholders, agents, licensors, subcontractors or suppliers, including as to the arbitrability of any of the foregoing, and whether arising prior to or after your agreement to this clause  (Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate) (all of the foregoing, collectively “Disputes”), will be governed by the procedures set out below:

Whether to agree to arbitration is an important decision. It is your decision to make, and you ARE NOT REQUIRED TO rely solely on the information provided in these Terms and Conditions. You should take reasonable steps to conduct further research and, if you wish, consult with counsel of your choice.'

‍

INFORMAL COMPLAINT RESOLUTION

We want to address any concerns or Disputes you may have without the need for formal dispute resolution. Therefore, before filing any arbitration demand or other claim of any kind against ShipSaving or any of its affiliates, subsidiaries, ultimate parent and parent companies, partners, officers, directors, employees, contractors, shareholders, agents, licensors, subcontractors or suppliers, you agree to notify us in writing of the nature of your concern and/or Dispute and to try in good faith using best efforts to resolve any such Dispute using informal resolution.  Specifically, you agree to contact info@shipsaving.com by emailing a short summary and description of your complaint(s).  

In the event that any such complaint(s) are unable to be resolved by the informal dispute resolution process above, either party may, but no sooner than 30 (thirty) days from the commencement of said process, initiate an arbitration in accordance with the procedures and terms as follows:

‍

ARBITRATION

Both You and ShipSaving agree that any and all Disputes, including without limitation any question regarding the existence, validity, enforceability, or termination of these Terms and Conditions and/or this clause (Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate), shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA), the Rules of which are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this clause.

The parties further agree that any unresolved controversy or claim arising out of or relating to this contract, or the breach thereof, shall be settled by arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) in accordance with its Commercial Arbitration Rules and judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator(s) may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof.

The arbitration shall be governed by the laws of the State of California. The arbitrator(s) shall award to the prevailing party, if any, as determined by the arbitrators, all of their costs and fees. "Costs and fees" mean all reasonable pre-award expenses of the arbitration, including the arbitrators' fees, administrative fees, travel expenses, out-of-pocket expenses such as copying and telephone, court costs, witness fees, and attorneys' fees.

In agreeing to this binding commitment to arbitrate your Disputes, you agree that you waive any right to proceed in a court of law or to have your claims heard by a jury. The arbitration shall:

  1. be conducted by a single, neutral arbitrator in the English language;
  2. be held virtually and not in person for all proceedings related to the arbitration, except by mutual agreement of all parties;
  3. be limited to one deposition per party, except by mutual agreement of all parties.

Furthermore, in cases where neither party’s claim(s) or counterclaim(s) exceed $25,000, both parties agree to waive an arbitration hearing and resolve the dispute solely through submission of documents to the arbitrator. No award or procedural order made in the arbitration shall be published.

The AAA rules, as well as instructions on how to file an arbitration proceeding with the AAA, appear at adr.org, or you may call the AAA at 1-800-778-7879.

Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor an arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration hereunder without the prior written consent of both parties. All documents and information disclosed during the arbitration proceedings shall be kept strictly confidential by the recipient and shall not be used by the recipient for any purpose other than for purposes of the arbitration or the enforcement of the arbitrator’s decision and award and shall not be disclosed except in confidence to persons who need to know for such purposes or as required by applicable law.

Both you and ShipSaving agree not to make any argument that the AAA is an inconvenient forum or otherwise incompetent or without authority or jurisdiction to hear any Dispute, and hereby expressly waive any and all such arguments thereto.

‍

INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION ONLY AND WAIVER OF COLLECTIVE ACTION

You and ShipSaving agree that an arbitration or any other proceeding to resolve a Dispute shall proceed in an individual capacity only, and neither you nor ShipSaving may bring a Dispute as a Collective Action. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND SHIPSAVING AGREE, NO ARBITRATOR OR JUDGE MAY CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S CLAIMS OR ENGAGE IN ANY COLLECTIVE ACTION.

Without limiting the generality of this clause (Individual Arbitration Only and Waiver of Collective Action) and as an example only, a claim to resolve a Dispute against ShipSaving will be deemed a Collective Action if:

  1. claims are filed or pursued concurrently by or on behalf of two or more persons or entities; and
  2. counsel for the two or more persons is the same, or share fees, or coordinate in any way.

For the purposes of this clause, the term ‘concurrently’ means that the claims are pending (filed but not resolved) at the same time.

‍

SURVIVAL OF OBLIGATIONS

THIS CLAUSE (DISPUTE RESOLUTION AND AGREEMENT TO ARBITRATE) SURVIVES THE TERMINATION OF THESE TERMS AND CONDITIONS FOR ANY REASON.

‍

JURY OR WAIVER TRIAL TERMS AND REGULATIONS

If both parties are unable to find a disclosure of the dispute, they agree to skip the court of law according to their constitution and statutory rights. Therefore, the dispute will be ended using the Arbitration Agreement. The procedure is selected due to the following reasons. It is quicker, more affordable, and generally less time-consuming than using the court of law. A user or the visitor of the ShipSaving site waives the jury-based court of law and agrees on using the Arbitration Agreement. If the Arbitration Agreement is unable to find the solution, a judge will be selected, once again without a jury. All the claims and disputes must be discussed, treated, and solved on an individual basis. According to the Terms of Use, you agree with the aforementioned point. The disputes also cannot be merged with claims or disputes of other users and must be treated independently.

‍

CONFIDENTIALITY TERMS

All the points of the claims or disputes and arbitrary agreements are strictly confidential and will not be shared with third parties in any form. The only exception is when a court of law is used. According to the law, one can share private and sensitive information with officials. The Terms of Use of ShipSaving will not prevent you from sharing the information and details with the court of law and lawyers. All other sharing, submitting, or providing the specifics is strictly forbidden and in serious cases when the user has shared the specifics, ShipSaving has the full right to reject the dispute without the use of a court of law or the use of Arbitrary Agreement. If the parts of the Arbitrary agreement are invalid under civil law or constitution, those sections will be removed from the agreement. Every user has the full right to waive all the points and sections of the arbitrary agreement and this action will not affect the end result of the dispute. The arbitration agreement will continue to be used after your relationship with ShipSaving is officially terminated. The company, ShipSaving, or the user has the right to bring a separate, individual action or according to the law in the small claim court.

‍

EMERGENCY EQUITABLE RELIEF

According to the arbitrary agreement, both parties in a dispute have the right to request emergency equitable relief. The sole purpose of this request is to maintain the status quo and can be used in the federal or state court of law. This request will not be considered as a waiver of any obligations or rights of a party.

‍

DISPUTES THAT ARE NOT ELIGIBLE FOR ARBITRATION

All computer frauds, forging of the data, abuse act, copyright violation, trade, or any use of the other party’s patent are not eligible for the arbitration agreement. In the aforementioned circumstances, both parties agree on seeking professional legal help to understand specific actions that are needed to resolve this at the local court. ShipSaving may be eligible for arbitration for the import and export laws from the United States and the same rules in other countries, based on the user location and the local law. ShipSaving is an online located company available for users globally.

‍

INDEMNIFICATION

You agree to defend, hold harmless and indemnify ShipSaving, its officers, directors, employees, and agents, from and against all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs or debt, and expenses (including but not limited to attorney’s and administrative fees) arising from:

  1. your use of and access to the Site, Services, and Software;
  2. your violation of any term of these Terms;
  3. your violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any copyright, property, or privacy right;
  4. any claim that one of your submissions caused damage to a third-party.

This defense and indemnification obligation will survive these Terms and your use of the Site.

‍

COMMUNICATION

In a case of dispute or a potential dispute, both parties, ShipSaving, and you must use proper means of communication. They are telephone, email or letters if possible. A user visiting the site and using the consents of ShipSaving service to: accept emails and letters from the company in the use of notifications; accept emails and telephone calls in the formal updates regarding the new or completed dispute; accept email communication, written communication, and telephone calls. ShipSaving has the full right to contact the user using any form of the aforementioned means.

DATA SECURITY

ShipSaving works diligently to ensure the confidentiality, integrity, and availability of your data.

  • Encryption in transit protects the confidentiality, integrity, and authenticity of your data. As an industry best-practice, we use HTTPS to encrypt customer data sent and received by our servers. This includes, but is not limited to, all data transmitted over the RESTful JSON API that communicates with our backend microservice architecture. This protects your information from tampering and unauthorized disclosure. We also implement AES-GCM (an authenticated encryption algorithm based on a pre-shared key) to protect both the confidentiality and integrity of data transmissions.
  • Database access controls restrict access to authorized users and IP addresses. Developers undergo strict account management. Auditing and robust log records provide relevant insights to personnel who regularly review database access for signs of malicious operation. Database passwords must adhere to internal standards for complexity. Database contents are encrypted both at rest and in transit.
  • Field-level encryption with the AES-GCM algorithm protects sensitive database entries from unauthorized tampering or disclosure. When the application writes data to the database, sensitive fields are encrypted with an additional key. When the contents of an encrypted database field are retrieved, the results cannot be deciphered without the respective key. This second line of defense significantly reduces the potential impact of leaked data. Our software developers and database administrators (DBAs) operate by default on encrypted fields. Access to the original contents of encrypted fields is granted to staff only on a "need-to-know" basis.
  • Data desensitization protects sensitive customer data such as phone numbers, email addresses, and payment card information. Predefined rules tokenize, hide, or mask this data. For extremely sensitive data such as payment card information, we only persist a subset of the original, significantly increasing customer safety.

‍

ACCESS CONTROL

Role-based access control (RBAC) assigns functional and data permissions to designated roles, and one or more roles to individual user accounts. A "super administrator," for instance, not only possesses global access to all actions and data, but will also typically customize other roles as needed and assign them to users. Our system administrators apply specific role assignments to customers. This ensures that customers possess functional authority and data authority over only their own data. Malicious actions may attempt to tamper with input parameters to conceal executable commands or cross trust boundaries. This can lead to the unauthorized acquisition of server permissions and the unauthorized disclosure of customer data. The system addresses these concerns as follows:

  • Cross-site scripting (XSS) occurs when untrusted JavaScript or other scripting code is supplied from one source and rendered in an unexpected location, such as another user's browsing session. An XSS attack can tamper with or expose data, opening up customer accounts to compromise and endangering their normal operation. To prevent this class of attack, the system is designed to refuse unsafe inbound content. The system will check, filter, and escape any customer input with whitelists of trusted character sets and HTML tags. As an additional layer of defense, the system will filter and/or sanitize output before rendering HTML content to users.
  • Buffer overflows occur when a system receives input of a length that overflows the memory area designated for its storage. A malicious user who succeeds at this attack may tamper with or expose data, or possibly gain system root access. To avoid receiving data that exceeds system capacity, we treat external data as untrusted input and perform boundary checks before committing to our systems.
  • Cross-site request forgery (CSRF) can occur when an attacker causes a victim's browser to automatically submit a request. This attack is similar to, but different from, a cross-site scripting (XSS) attack. In the case of CSRF, the attacker crafts a malicious request directed at a particular website. If the customer has an active browsing session on that website, the request can be executed to create, read, update, or delete data as the customer themselves. This is equivalent to the attacker logging in with the customer's own credentials to carry out harmful actions within the scope of the customer's authority. To prevent CSRF attacks and protect customer accounts, the system validates CSRF tokens, HTTP referer headers, and CAPTCHA responses.
  • Path traversal can occur when query parameters and server paths are not properly sanitized or validated before use in accessing a server-side file system location. An attacker may supply a string with directory navigation operators, possibly escaped (e.g., "../" or "%2E%2E%2F"), to gain unauthorized access to information systems. To prevent this, all customer input is validated and/or escaped after transmission.
  • A web shell is a type of remote access trojan (RAT) that exploits a script upload vulnerability to create a command execution environment. An attacker will often use this shell environment through a web browser. This can lead to a series of hazards such as unauthorized information disclosure and tampering. To avoid receiving a web shell, we strictly limit and verify uploaded files. Customers may upload only static files and the system does not trust original filenames. In addition to restricting the upload of malicious code files, the system restricts the execution permissions of related directories.
  • Unexpected data disclosure may occur when access logs record sensitive query parameters. To prevent this, the HTTP GET method is not used to transmit sensitive data into the system. When sensitive data must be transmitted into the system, the HTTP POST method is used, and sensitive data placed in the body of the request. The HTTP GET method may be used to transmit non-sensitive data to the system, and to retrieve both sensitive and non-sensitive data from the system.

LOGIN SECURITY

Customer password security promotes not only the security of customer information on our platform but also the stability of the system as a whole. Some customers may use the same password on multiple platforms; once this password is cracked, the risk of data leakage exists on any other platforms with which it is shared. We mitigate the potential for damage as follows:

  • The system assigns an authentication token to customers at login. This token accompanies the customer throughout their session and grants the ability to access assigned functions and data. The system reduces the potential for unauthorized disclosure or tampering by requiring a valid token with requests for privileged functions and data.
  • User authentication checks occur with every request. We encourage customers to log out manually when they are finished with the system. As a protection against abandoned sessions, if authentication credentials expire or the authentication process fails, the customer will be required to log in again to minimize the potential for data leakage.
  • Cookies are protected from unauthorized disclosure and tampering with the HttpOnly and Secure attributes. The HttpOnly flag prevents customer information in cookies from being read by malicious JavaScript files. The Secure flag ensures that a client browser will submit the cookie only with HTTPS requests.
  • The AES-GCM encryption algorithm promotes authenticity in the system with authentication codes and authenticated encryption with associated data (AEAD). If system decryption functions note authenticity issues during the decryption process, an exception will be thrown to prevent further processing of corrupted or tampered customer data.
  • Customer password length and complexity requirements mitigate the likelihood of brute-force password cracking. We guarantee that customer passwords are not stored in plaintext. Customer passwords are salted and hashed on the frontend with a slow hash operation. Sensitive data, including authentication credentials, will be transmitted to the backend only over a connection encrypted with HTTPS.
  • Two-factor verification validates customer ownership of email addresses used for website authentication. When we detect a customer account at risk of misappropriation, the affected customer must correctly supply both their password and a one-time code that the system will send to their email address. CAPTCHA affords an additional layer of protection for this process.

AUDIT LOGS

We are continuously strengthening our product security controls to ensure the maximum confidentiality, integrity, and availability of customer accounts and data.

The vast majority of customer operations trigger the creation of audit logs. This provides customers the ability to trace events when necessary. We provide operation logs for each event that include a timestamp, customer ID, the object being operated on, and the contents of the operation. To facilitate unified management, system administrators have the ability to view the operation logs of all customers.

  • We record operations performed by customers on their own data. If an operation involves sensitive data, such as password or payment card information, metadata attached to log entries will be encrypted to minimize the potential for data leakage.
  • Customer requests for data will be approved or denied based upon credentials and additional security considerations. The results of these decisions will be recorded.
  • Multiple customer user accounts may collaborate as a team. In these cases, a team administrator may be designated as an approver for purchase orders placed by other team members. For example, a warehouse manager who wishes to create a purchase order will submit an application to their administrator for approval. The administrator can then choose to deny or approve the application. If the application is approved, the purchase order will be created. The system records these decisions with per-application granularity.
  • Potentially risky operations trigger alarms to be handled by dedicated personnel.
  • Logs are retained for 180 days.

‍

Developers are subject to sound auditing and log management. We mitigate the potential for developer credential misuse by logging the following events:

  • Login and logout timestamps;
  • Database and server access attempts;
  • Data, file, and network access attempts;
  • Changes to customer data, such as deletion or modification of sensitive info;
  • Exceptions or other signs of abnormal activity, which may trigger alarms.

‍

SERVER SECURITY

Firewalls and network security policies deny or redirect data flow to reduce the efficacy of malicious network-based attacks. Security rules are optimized to establish a proper security perimeter for system components.

Network Access Control (NAC) restricts server access to authorized developers, originating from whitelisted IP addresses, who comply with pertinent security policies.

When network bandwidth becomes saturated it can exhaust server processing capacity, preventing legitimate users from being able to access resources. A distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) is one sort of malicious attack that can produce this result. To address this risk, we:

  • Limit the frequency of requests from individual IP addresses;
  • Apply load-balancing to shunt traffic toward available servers;
  • Disable ICMP on security devices such as firewalls;
  • Deny or redirect abnormal traffic with a hardware firewall that mitigates the potential for DDoS with rule-based packet-filtering, deep packet introspection (DPI), and Web Application Firewall (WAF) filtering based on request contents and disposition;
  • Apply ISP near-source cleaning and operator traffic suppression to minimize the potential for incidents that could adversely affect service availability to customers;
  • Strictly limit, at the application layer, the number of connections and CPU usage time from individual IP addresses;
  • Reduce unnecessary dynamic database queries.

A competent patch management process regularly reviews and addresses operating system vulnerabilities. Timely application of patches minimizes the potential for malicious attacks.

Unnecessary service ports are closed as part of the system hardening process.

Audit logs record every server operation. Designated security personnel regularly review these logs and respond immediately when an incident is noted.

‍

PAYMENT SECURITY

To protect customer financial information, we do not store data from payment cards.

A third-party vendor, Stripe, acts as our payment processor. Please refer to Stripe for more information on their security policies and procedures.

‍

DEVELOPER SECURITY

Developers regularly undergo training to improve security and privacy awareness.

The use of external storage media (USB disks, portable hard drives, thumb drives, etc.) is prohibited on company computers.

The use of unsecured public cloud applications, including file synchronization tools such as Dropbox and Google Drive, is also prohibited on company computers.

‍

DATA BACKUPS

Our customers fulfill orders with the aid of transactional and other data ("Platform Data") synchronized into our system from third-party e-commerce platforms ("Marketplaces"). To ensure the availability of Platform Data when it is needed, we perform regular backups. Each Marketplace imposes its own policies on the use, protection, and retention of Platform Data.

ShipSaving treats Platform Data, and backups thereof, in strict accordance with the requirements of each Marketplace. We do not maintain Platform Data beyond the retention periods mandated by Marketplaces. We do not sell, share, or otherwise disclose customer data in any manner that would violate our agreements with Marketplaces.

‍

Backup frequency

  • Full database backups occur weekly at 23:59 on Sunday.
  • Incremental database backups occur daily at 03:00, 09:00, 15:00, and 21:00.

‍

Backup plan

  • The database currently utilizes master-slave synchronization to promote data redundancy. Binary logging on the slave database is enabled for off-site backup.
  • Future plans include database read-write separation ("master write, slave read") to promote scalability and high-availability. This master-slave synchronization architecture, with backups in accordance with the original backup scheme, may entail a split into separate databases and additional tables to further improve the ShipSaving recovery time objective (RTO) and recovery point objective (RPO) metrics.

‍

SECURITY INCIDENT RESPONSE PLAN(SIRP)

We maintain a security incident response plan (SIRP) and we review and verify this plan every six months and after any major infrastructure or system change. When our backend engineering managers investigate security incidents, or when automation mechanisms trigger an alarm.

  • We identify the type and extent of any associated events.
  • We disconnect any relevant systems from the network.
  • We gather evidence. System logs may be viewed without shutting down associated servers, which promotes forensic analysis of potential evidence in memory, if required.
  • In the event that a breach may affect passwords, we will lock down sensitive information and rotate any relevant passwords.
  • The impact of a data breach will be assessed based upon logs and other available evidence. Once a root cause analysis is performed, remedial measures will be taken. These may include, but are not limited to, cryptographic erasure of affected systems, patching of relevant software or operating systems, reconfiguration of firewalls, isolation of subnets, malware scanning, and recalibration of automated alarm thresholds.
