These may include but are not limited to heavy or oversized items, items requiring temperature controlled shipping and artworks. We are unable to provide any form of “white glove service”.

When you make a Booking that is accepted by us, you will be provided with information regarding the Angel, including the Angel’s identity, photo and vehicle licence number (depending on the type of vehicle collecting your Item(s)). The Service also allows you to view the Angel’s progress towards the Pick-Up Location. 

3.8 After you have selected the ‘Pick-Up Now’ button, we will send you a notification (either through the Service, by e-mail or SMS) to confirm we have received your Booking request (“Booking Confirmation”). Please note that this does not mean that we have accepted your Booking at this point and we shall have no obligation to accept your Booking.

You may request that SpeedPorter and its agents or third party business partners not open, remove packaging, or otherwise inspect your Items. By doing so, you waive any right to reimbursement for damage to your Shipment. You acknowledge and agree that we (and our agents or third party business partners) may take such actions (e.g. opening and inspecting Items) with respect to your Shipment, even if you request otherwise, if we determine in our sole discretion that such action is necessary to assess compliance with these Terms or is otherwise required by applicable law or regulation.

10 EVENTS OUTSIDE OUR REASONABLE CONTROL 

10.1 We will not be liable or responsible for any failure to perform, or delay in performance of, any of our obligations under this Agreement that is caused by an Event Outside Our Control. 

10.2 What we mean by an Event Outside Our Control.  An “Event Outside Our Control” means any act or event beyond our reasonable control, including without limitation strikes, lock-outs or other industrial action by third parties, civil commotion, riot, invasion, terrorist attack or threat of terrorist attack, war (whether declared or not) or threat or preparation for war, fire, explosion, storm, flood, earthquake, subsidence, epidemic or other natural disaster, or failure of public or private telecommunications networks. 

10.3 If an Event Outside Our Control takes place that affects the performance of our obligations under this Agreement: 

10.3.1 we will contact you as soon as reasonably possible to notify you; and

11 General 

11.1 You may print and keep a copy of these Terms, which form the entire agreement and understanding between you and us and supersede any other agreements, communications or advertising (whether oral or in writing) made with respect to the subject matter hereof. 

11.2 SpeedPorter may alter or amend these Terms by giving reasonable notice on the App and/or Website. By continuing to use the Service, the App and/or the Website after expiry of the notice period (or such other indication of your acceptance of the Terms), you will be deemed to have accepted any amendment to these Terms. 

11.3 In case you are a business user and proceed with proposing the use of our Services to end users by sending to your guest the personalized link to our website through our app (“Guest Solicitation”), you undertake to abstain from using the services of a direct or indirect competitor or any affiliate thereof for one (1) year starting from the date you last proceeded to a Guest Solicitation. For the avoidance of doubt, a “competitor” for purposes of the present terms of conditions is any entity, natural or legal person that provides one-stop shop integrated pick-up, courier and delivery services to hotels or other amenities regarding missing and/or lost items of end-users during their stay in the aforementioned hotels or amenities using relevant software, including by entering into partnerships with specialized courier companies.

11.4 By using our services, you hereby automatically, without reservations and irrevocably provide to our company and any indicated employee or external associate thereof, whom shall be appointed at the discretion of our company, the right and full authority to pick-up your item from all and any state or other authority, including police stations, on your behalf. You acknowledge that in case your missing item went missing in a public space or facility, such as an airport or port, it will be provisionally kept by the competent state authority and, thus, the provision of an express power of attorney to our company to that effect is essential for the fulfillment of the services.

11.5 These Terms and their performance shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of England and Wales, and the parties hereby submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England. 

11.6 Each of the clauses under these Terms operate separately. If any clause of these Terms is declared void, illegal or unenforceable, the remainder of these Terms will be valid and enforceable to the extent permitted by applicable law. In such event, the parties agree to use their best efforts to replace the invalid or unenforceable clause by a clause that, to the extent permitted by the applicable law, achieves the purposes intended under the invalid or unenforceable provision. 

11.7 Any failure by either us or you to enforce at any time any term or condition under these Terms will not be considered a waiver of our or your right thereafter to enforce each and every term and condition of these Terms. 

11.8 Nothing in these Terms shall give, directly or indirectly, any third party any enforceable benefit or any right of action against us and such third parties shall not be entitled to enforce any term of these Terms against us.
