relevant disclaimer or copyright notice, include in any copy of the
Data or the Licensee Software any disclaimer or copyright notice
which is included in the Data as provided to the Licensee (or on the
media on which the Data is provided to the Licensee).
d. To avoid doubt, the Restricted Data may not be distributed or sold to
any third party as a data product.
e. The Exclusive Data in the “Property_type” field (which identifies,
among other things, whether an address is a residence or a holiday
home) may not be used in any Licensee Software which will be used
to provide an online address checking service for use by members
of the public. To avoid doubt this does not prevent the use of the
Exclusive Data in the “Property_type” field being used in Licensee
Software to provide an address checking service for use solely by
an End User and its agents or sub-contractors, provided such data
is treated by the End User and its agents and sub-contractors as
confidential in accordance with clause 9.1 of this Agreement.
8. End User terms: a. Any agreement under which an End User is entitled to use Restricted
Data must include the terms listed below. This section 8(a) does
not limit the other terms the Licensee may include in any End User
Agreement provided that such other terms (i) do not contradict or
detract from the terms listed below, (ii) are consistent with the terms
of these Special Terms and the Common Terms and Conditions, and
(iii) give the Licensor the same protection as is afforded by these
Special Terms and the Common Terms and Conditions.
i. The End User agrees that the Data (other than the Third Party
Data) and the Documentation and all Intellectual Property
Rights and other rights in the Data (other than the Third Party
Data) and the Documentation from time to time remain the
property of the Licensor.
ii. The End User has no right to use any of the trade marks,
business names or logos of the Licensor unless expressly
stated otherwise in any sub-licence granted to the End User
by the Licensee within the terms of any licence granted by the
Licensor to the Licensee.
iii. The End User must not make any statement or claim relating
to the Data being approved, recommended or endorsed by the
Licensor or do anything similar or imply that such is the case,
unless the Licensor has expressly given its prior written consent
to the form and content of such claim.

iv. The End User (and any of its agents and sub-contractors) may
only use Restricted Data in accordance with the End User
Agreement, for the End User’s internal purposes, which may
include providing an online address checking service to the End
User’s customers. Without limiting the foregoing, the End User
(and any of its agents and subcontractors) must not:
a. sub-license all or any part of the Restricted Data to any
person, or purport or attempt to do so, in each case,
unless expressly permitted otherwise by the Licensor in
writing, or
b. other than as expressly permitted above, copy, reproduce,
publish, sell, let, modify, extract or otherwise part with
possession of the whole or any part of the Restricted Data
or relay or disseminate the same to any other party.
v. The End User must comply with the requirements of the Privacy
Act 1993 and any other applicable law or regulations relevant to
its possession or use of the Data.
vi. The End User must ensure that its personnel, agents and
sub- contractors comply with the above terms as if they were
the Licensee.
vii. The End User acknowledges that the Licensor has made no
warranty that the Data will be free from errors, omissions,
inaccuracies, viruses or other destructive code, or that the Data
will be fit for the End User’s purpose or for use in any specific
technical environment.
viii. The End User agrees and represents that it is acquiring the Data
and any Documentation for the purposes of a business and that
the Consumer Guarantees Act 1993 (New Zealand) does not apply.
ix. The End User must indemnify the Licensor and keep the
Licensor indemnified against any claim, proceeding, damage,
liability, loss, cost or expense (including legal costs on a
solicitor and own client basis), whether arising in contract,
tort (including for negligence) or otherwise, arising out of or
in connection with any breach by the End User of any of the
above terms or the use of the Data by the End User or any other
person who has obtained the Data from an End User. The End
User’s total aggregate liability to the Licensor under this clause
ix shall not exceed $250,000.
x. The Licensor must have rights to enforce the above terms (and
the term in 8(b) below as applicable) for the purposes of the
Contracts (Privity) Act 1982, and is entitled to terminate the End
User’s right to use any Data if the End User breaches any of
those terms.

b. Where Licensee Software is being used to provide an online address
checking service which includes access to the Exclusive Data in the
“Property_type” field, the End User Agreement must also include
a term to the effect that the End User may not use the Licensee
Software to provide an online address checking service for use by
members of the public. To avoid doubt this does not prevent the use
of such Licensee Software to provide an address checking service for
use solely by an End User’s agents or sub-contractors, provided such
data is treated by the End User and its agents and sub-contractors as
confidential.]
c. The Licensee must:
i. ensure that each End User complies with the End User terms
contained in 8(a) above; and
ii. notify the Licensor immediately upon becoming aware of any
breach of those terms by an End User and use all available
means to prevent the continuance of the breach.
9. Additional terms: a. For as long as the Licensee complies with the terms of these Special
Terms and the Agreement, the Licensee may make the following
statement in respect of the Data: “Data in this product is wholly or
partly derived from the New Zealand Post NZ Address Dataset”.
b. When promoting or marketing any product or service of the Licensee
which requires the use of any Data, the Licensee must:
i. not make any misrepresentations or misstatements about the
Data or the Licensor;
ii. not do anything that adversely reflects on, detracts from or
otherwise prejudices the reputation or standing of the Licensor,
the Data, or any products or services of the Licensor;
iii. comply with the reasonable directions of the Licensor;
iv. in relation to any documentation (including each End User
Agreement) provided to an End User in conjunction with any
such product or service, include the following notice: “The data
within the NZ Address Dataset is sourced from New Zealand

v. acknowledge the Licensor on any such product and/or the
packaging of any such product, or in connection with any such
service, by including the notice contained in section 9(b)(iv)
and the statement that New Zealand Post Limited owns, or
has a licence to use, all intellectual property rights in the data
incorporated in this product or service”.
c. The Licensee must indemnify the Licensor and keep the Licensor
indemnified against any damage, liability, loss, cost or expense
(including legal costs on a solicitor and own client basis) arising from
or in connection with any claim that the Licensee Software infringes
the Intellectual Property Rights of any third party.
