Terms of Service

Last updated: April 1, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using NinjaShip ("the Service"), operated by [COMPANY_LEGAL_NAME] ("we," "us," or "our"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

2. Description of Service

NinjaShip provides a multi-carrier shipping platform that allows users to compare rates, purchase shipping labels, track packages, and manage shipping operations through a web application and API. The Service integrates with e-commerce platforms including Shopify and WooCommerce.

3. Account Registration

You must provide accurate information when creating an account. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.

4. Wallet and Payments

The Service operates on a prepaid wallet model. Funds added to your wallet are used to purchase shipping labels. Label costs are deducted at time of purchase. Voided labels are refunded to your wallet balance per carrier policies. All payment processing is handled by Stripe. We do not store your payment card details.

5. Shipping Labels

Shipping labels purchased through NinjaShip are subject to the terms and conditions of the respective carriers (USPS, UPS, FedEx, DHL). Carrier services are provided through EasyPost. NinjaShip is not a carrier and does not guarantee delivery times, routes, or outcomes. Claims for lost or damaged packages must be filed with the respective carrier.

6. Platform Integrations

If you connect NinjaShip to a third-party platform (Shopify, WooCommerce, BigCommerce, Squarespace, Magento, or others), you authorize us to access your store data as described in our Privacy Policy. By connecting your store, you consent to the data processing described therein.

You are responsible for your own compliance with applicable privacy laws in relation to your customers. You must maintain your own privacy policy that accurately describes how your customers' data is shared with third-party services like NinjaShip.

We process your customers' personal data (names, addresses, phone numbers, emails) solely to generate shipping labels and fulfill orders on your behalf. We act as a data processor for this customer data, and you remain the data controller.

7. API Usage

Access to the NinjaShip API is governed by these Terms. API keys are confidential and must not be shared publicly. We reserve the right to revoke API keys that are abused, shared, or used in violation of these Terms. API usage is subject to rate limits (100 requests per minute for general endpoints, 10 requests per minute for authentication endpoints).

8. Prohibited Uses

You may not use the Service to:

  • Ship prohibited items as defined by carrier policies
  • Engage in fraudulent shipping activity
  • Violate any applicable law or regulation
  • Resell or redistribute shipping labels
  • Attempt to circumvent rate limits or security measures
  • Use the Service to harm, harass, or infringe on the rights of others

9. Intellectual Property

The Service, including its design, code, documentation, and branding, is owned by [COMPANY_LEGAL_NAME] and protected by intellectual property laws. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or reverse-engineer any part of the Service. You retain ownership of your data and content uploaded to the Service.

10. Limitation of Liability

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranty of any kind, express or implied. To the maximum extent permitted by law, [COMPANY_LEGAL_NAME] shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, or business opportunities, arising from your use of or inability to use the Service. We are not liable for carrier delays, lost packages, customs issues, or any actions taken by third-party carriers or payment processors.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless [COMPANY_LEGAL_NAME], its officers, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your use of the Service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any applicable law or the rights of a third party.

12. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account if you violate these terms or engage in activity that we reasonably believe is harmful to the Service or other users. Upon termination, you may request a refund of any remaining wallet balance by contacting us. Sections 9, 10, 11, 13, and 14 survive termination.

13. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of [STATE_JURISDICTION], without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms or the Service shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in [STATE_JURISDICTION]. You agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of these courts.

14. Changes to Terms

We may update these terms at any time. We will notify you of material changes via email or in-app notification at least 30 days before the changes take effect. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
