Information you submit through the Site (for example, via our enquiry forms) may be transmitted over various networks and may involve changes to conform to the technical requirements of connecting networks or devices.

You agree not to reproduce, duplicate, copy, sell, resell, or exploit any portion of the Site, its content, or access to it, without our express written permission.

Headings used in these Terms are for convenience only and do not affect their interpretation.


Section 3 - Accuracy, Completeness, and Timeliness of Information

Information on the Site, including product specifications, grades, and availability, is provided for general information purposes and is subject to change without notice. We are not responsible for ensuring that all information on the Site is accurate, complete, or current at all times.

Any commercial terms, including pricing, minimum order quantities, and product availability, are subject to confirmation at the time of a formal quote or order, and are not binding based on information published on the Site alone.

Section 4 - Enquiries and Commercial Relationships

The Site enables you to submit enquiries regarding distribution, wholesale, hospitality, or bulk supply of theHoneyman products. Submitting an enquiry does not create a binding commercial agreement between you and theHoneyman. Any resulting supply relationship, including pricing, volume, exclusivity, and delivery terms, will be governed by a separate agreement entered into directly between you and theHoneyman.

We reserve the right to decline any enquiry, at our sole discretion, including where we determine that a proposed market, channel, or partnership is not a suitable fit.

Product descriptions, images, and specifications on the Site are provided as a general guide. We have made reasonable efforts to display product information accurately, but actual products (including batch-specific grade, colour, and packaging) may vary.


Section 5 - Optional Tools and Third-Party Services

We may provide access to third-party tools (for example, analytics or communication tools) over which we have no control.

You should review the terms of any relevant third-party provider before using such tools.

Please review the terms and privacy practices of any third-party site before engaging with it.


Section 7 - Feedback and Submissions

If you send us comments, suggestions, or other feedback (whether requested or unsolicited), you agree that we may use, edit, and share that feedback without restriction or compensation to you, and that we are under no obligation to keep it confidential or to respond to it.

You agree that any feedback or communication you submit will not violate the rights of any third party, and will not contain unlawful, defamatory, or otherwise objectionable content.

Your submission of personal information through the Site, including via our enquiry forms, is governed by our Privacy Policy.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, theHoneyman, its directors, officers, employees, and agents will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Site, including loss of profits, revenue, or data, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages. This limitation does not apply to liability that cannot be excluded under New Zealand law.


Section 12 - Indemnification

Section 13 - Severability

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permitted by law, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

These Terms of Service are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of New Zealand, and any disputes arising from them will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of New Zealand.
