Terms & Conditions

 

General

These Website Terms and Conditions of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of this website and any other websites operated by, or on behalf of, Mainland Group Holdings Limited and its controlled entities (together, the “Group”). The Group owns and operates a portfolio of brands, including (without limitation): Mainland, Anchor, Anlene, Anmum, Fernleaf, Bega, Perfect Italiano, Fresh n Fruity and other current or future Group brands (each a “Brand Website”). 

Unless stated otherwise on a specific Brand Website:

  • these Terms apply across all Brand Websites operated by the Group; and

  • by accessing or using this site or any Brand Website, you agree that your use is governed by these Terms.

Where a Brand Website publishes supplementary or product specific terms, those terms apply in addition to these Terms. In the event of any inconsistency, the supplementary terms will prevail to the extent of the inconsistency only.

References to “Mainland Dairy” “we”, “us” or “our” in these Terms mean the relevant Group entity responsible for the Brand Website you are using, as identified on that website, acting on behalf of the Group.

Mainland Dairy reserves the right to vary these Terms at any time. Using a Brand Website after the Terms have changed means you accept the changed Terms. If you agree to be bound by these Terms you may use the Brand Website, otherwise you should not.

The current version of the Terms will be maintained on the relevant Brand Website. You may not create a link from any other website to any part of a Brand Website, other than the homepage, without our prior express consent. If you link to a Brand Website, it is at your own risk. 

Jurisdiction

Unless otherwise stated for a specific Brand Website, or in supplementary terms applicable to a particular country or region, these Terms are governed by the laws of New Zealand, and the courts of New Zealand have non-exclusive jurisdiction.

Certain Brand Websites are intended for use in specific countries or regions only. Those websites may include additional notices, disclaimers or legal requirements (including governing law) to comply with local laws. Such local terms apply in addition to, and where inconsistent prevail over, these Terms. 

If you access a Brand Website from outside the relevant country or region, you are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws. 

Intellectual Property

All intellectual property rights (including, without limitation, copyright and trademark rights) in all materials displayed or available on the Brand Website belongs to Mainland Dairy unless otherwise stated. If the owner of any material published on the Brand Website is not Mainland Dairy, your rights in respect of that material will be as defined by the copyright owner of the material concerned.

Unless otherwise stated, you are permitted to copy text published by Mainland Dairy on the Brand Website for your own non-commercial use only, provided you retain and display any copyright notice applying to the material. Individual items may have more specific terms and conditions associated with them, in which case those terms and conditions will apply to that item in place of this general permission.

Except as set out above, all rights to the Brand Website (including rights in text, graphics, selection, arrangement and overall website design) are reserved and no right or licence is granted or implied under any copyright, patent, trademark or other intellectual property right of Mainland Dairy or any other party as a consequence of the publication of any material on the Brand Website. No material from the Brand Website (except for media releases published in the Newsroom) may be reproduced, adapted or distributed, in whole or in part, or on any media without written permission (which includes email) from Mainland Dairy.
