The 3rd party fees for Services are billed during the month in which the Services are performed, but such 3rd Party Fees are subject to change due to circumstances beyond ShipMonk’s control. Company agrees and acknowledges that should Company change Account billing plans during or at the end of any month, the previous pricing plan may no longer be available. All other fees for the Services listed on Exhibit A to this Agreement, including Pick & Pack, Storage, Special Requests, Hourly Rates, etc., will be billed on the 1st and 15th day of the month following the conclusion of the month for which such Services were provided, or an Account Balance has accrued.

Upon an Account becoming an Abandoned Account, Company immediately forfeits its rights of ownership of such Company’s Inventory up to the cumulative amount necessary for payment of all Usage Fees and 3rd Party Fees as well as any reasonable expenses incurred by ShipMonk for the preservation and storage of the Inventory or its sale. Inventory will become immediately unavailable to Company, and liquidation proceedings would begin. Company agrees that all Inventory liquidated shall be sold at the absolute discretion of ShipMonk and would be free and clear of liability, and that Company assumes any liability therefore. Company has no rights to any liquidation proceeds arising from an Abandoned Account unless the amounts recovered through liquidation exceed the cumulative amount necessary for payment as stated above.  Should the amounts recovered through liquidation be insufficient to cover the cumulative amounts above, the Company would remain liable for any pending Usage Fees and 3rd Party Fees above and beyond the liquidation proceeds.

Upon the expiration of the 30 day cure period, a 30 day wind down of the Company Account shall commence (“Termination Notice Period”). Company may have full or limited use of the Account during the Termination Notice Period for the sole purpose of winding down its use of the account in a commercially reasonable manner. Any Product inventory that remains in ShipMonk’s inventory at the expiration of the Termination Notice Period will be shipped to Company at the address on file and, if address is not on file, the billing address on Company’s credit card, at Company’s expense. If no address is available or no balance is available to pay for shipment back to the Company, ShipMonk will liquidate the Product inventory in accordance with an Abandoned Account.

Behavioral “retargeting” Advertising: We use third-party advertising companies to serve ads when you visit our Website. These companies may use information (not including your name, company, address, email address, or telephone number) cookies or web beacons to collect non-personally identifiable information such as IP address, pages viewed, and if a conversion and other information about your visits to this and other Web sites in order to provide advertisements about Products and services of interest to you. If you would like more information about this practice and to know your choices about not having this information used by these companies, click here for more information about behavioral advertising and how it uses your anonymous info, you can visit http://www.networkadvertising.org.

E-mail communications: To help us make e-mails more useful and interesting, we often receive a confirmation when you open e-mail from ShipMonk.com if your computer supports such capabilities. We also compare our customer list to lists received from other companies, in an effort to avoid sending unnecessary messages to our customers. If you do not want to receive e-mail or other mail from us, please go to the My Account link in the header of any ShipMonk page and adjust your Newsletter preferences.

Information from other sources: We might receive information about you from other sources and add it to our account information. Examples of information we receive from other sources include updated delivery and address information from our carriers or other third parties, which we use to correct our records and deliver your next shipment or communication more easily; account information, purchase or redemption information, and page-view information; pricing criteria and pricing result information; and credit history information from credit bureaus, which we use to help prevent and detect fraud and to offer certain credit services to some customers.

Information about our customers is an important part of our business, and we are not in the business of selling it to others. We share customer information only as described below.

Affiliated businesses we do not control: We work closely with our affiliated businesses. Examples of co-branded and joint offerings include carriers which handle the delivery of your packages, and brokers which provide your packages with cargo insurance. You can tell when a third party is involved in your transactions, and we share customer information related to those transactions with that third party.

Agents: We employ other companies and individuals to perform functions on our behalf. Examples include fulfilling orders, delivering packages, sending postal mail and e-mail, removing repetitive information from customer lists, analyzing data, providing marketing assistance, providing search results and links (including paid listings and links), processing credit card payments, and providing customer service. They have access to personal information needed to perform their functions, but may not use it for other purposes.

Promotional offers : Sometimes we send offers to selected groups of our customers on behalf of other businesses. When we do this, we do not give that business your name and address. If you do not want to receive such offers, please go to the My Account link in the header of any ShipMonk page and adjust your Newsletter preferences.

Business transfers: As we continue to develop our business, we might sell or buy business units. In such transactions, customer information generally is one of the transferred business assets but remains subject to the promises made in any pre-existing Privacy Notice (unless, of course, the customer consents otherwise). Also, in the unlikely event that we, or substantially all of our assets are acquired, customer information will of course be one of the transferred assets.

Protection of ShipMonk.com and others: We release account and other personal information as necessary to enforce or apply our Terms of Use and other agreements; or protect the rights, property, or safety of us, our users, or others. This includes exchanging information with other companies and organizations for fraud protection and credit risk reduction. Obviously, however, this does not include selling, renting, sharing, or otherwise disclosing personally identifiable information from customers for commercial purposes in violation of the commitments set forth in this Privacy Notice.

Law Enforcement: ShipMonk’s policy is to notify members of requests for their data unless it is prohibited from doing so by statute or court order. Law enforcement officials who believe that notification would jeopardize an investigation should obtain an appropriate court order or other process that specifically precludes member notification.

With your consent: Other than as set out above, you will receive notice when information about you might go to third parties, and you will have an opportunity to choose not to share the information.

We reveal only the last five digits of your credit card numbers when confirming a shipment. Of course, we transmit the entire credit card number to the appropriate credit card company during order processing. It is important for you to protect against unauthorized access to your password and to your computer. Be sure to sign off when finished using a shared computer.

ShipMonk.com gives you access to a broad range of information about your account and your interactions with ShipMonk.com for the limited purpose of viewing and, in certain cases, updating that information. If you are under 18, you may use ShipMonk.com only with the involvement of a parent or guardian.

Our business changes constantly, and our Privacy Notice and the Terms of Use will change also. You should check our Web site frequently to see recent changes. Unless stated otherwise, our current Privacy Notice applies to all information that we have about you and your account.
