Terms of Carriage & Service

1. Scope of Agreement

By engaging CALIFORNIA DIAMOND DISTRIBUTION INC for transport, transit, or warehousing, you're entering a binding legal agreement. We don't just move boxes; we manage risk. How do we ensure excellence? Through strict adherence to the Warsaw and Montreal Conventions where applicable, alongside local California transit laws.

All forwarding instructions are subject to the standard conditions of the BIFA or relevant regional governing bodies. We're committed to clarity, so if you've got questions about our liability caps, we're here to talk.

2. Freight Forwarding Liabilities

Freight isn't just about speed. It's about safety. Our liability for loss or damage is typically limited based on the weight of the cargo as per standard industry SDR (Special Drawing Rights) calculations. Have you considered additional cargo insurance? While we maintain professional indemnity, we strongly suggest comprehensive coverage for high-value diamonds or specialized equipment.

3. Delivery Guarantees & Force Majeure

We strive for perfection in logistics. However, transit times are estimates, not absolute guarantees. Things happen. Weather, terminal congestion, or labor disputes fall under Force Majeure. We won't be held liable for delays caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control.
