3. Proof of Delivery: Photographic evidence or GPS synchronization data captured by the courier network confirming a successful drop-off shall constitute definitive "Proof of Delivery" (POD).
4. Liability Exclusions: Once the courier has logged the consignment as successfully delivered with accompanying POD, the contract of carriage is legally fulfilled. We accept no liability or financial responsibility for subsequent loss, ambient damage, or third-party theft of the items from your premises.
