Risk Disclosure Statements

As is with every objective you may pursue in life, there are always risks associated with the endeavours you are about to take through our Services. Whilst we have taken and will take every practical control to minimize such risks taking place, we wish to highlight some scenarios of higher likelihood, which you must be aware of and undertake to risk the same.

General

Qpid Network Sites are here to provide platforms for the exchange of Information and Correspondences between members.

That being the case, Qpid Network, its operating companies, directors, executives and staff cannot be held liable for loss / damages (if any) arising from disputes or instances of miscommunications between members.

Particular Scenarios

In engaging our Qpid Network Services, you are deemed to have understood, agreed to the below scenarios (which are not meant to be exhaustive) and submit to the associated risks:

  • Information Exchanged During Communications

    Qpid Network provides the opportunity for members to communicate and foster social relationship with each other via communication channels, such as Admirer Mails, EMF mail correspondence, Call services, Chat, etc. All correspondences exchanged during communication will be delivered on "as-is" basis based on the personal wish of members.

    Members are suggested to provide honest, true and valid information during communication. However, in reality, we cannot verify whether the information provided is absolutely accurate and true. Therefore we suggest that members should evaluate the risks and apply common sense when using these services.

  • Gift Delivery

    Changes in price
    The price shown below the image of each gift item is inclusive of delivery fee; whereas an additional delivery fee (as prescribed on the Sites) will be charged for delivery of other gifts to be delivered in one lot. Also, there may be a change in price if you choose a delivery date close to a major festive holiday.
    - Delivery date
    In occasional cases, the recipient member may be out of contact when the gift(s) is being delivered. A late delivery may occur in such case until the member can be contacted. We cannot guarantee the delivery of gift(s) by or on a specific day. Members are suggested to be aware of this and place order at least 3 days in advance.
    - Substituted items
    The gift items listed on our Sites are intended to show the types of gifts we offer. Owing to stock availability and change in market preference, some of those items may be substituted by others of similar design, value and size. This is to enable a timely delivery of your order.

  • Disclosure of Your Personal Information

    Under no circumstance will Qpid Network sell or transfer for monetary gains your information to any unrelated third party without your permission, but we may disclose your information to affiliates or unaffiliated third parties if we believe in good faith that such disclosure is necessary:
