Do FTC laws apply to UPS and shiping companies other than USPS?
Ok, will try to be as detailed as possible with this since my last question didn't get a reply. Recently I received an iphone 5s(googled PN and found that it was an iphone). I never ordered one and the address is mine. The name however is not. Nor do I remember ordering it. I did sign for it. I know that if you receive something via normal USPS, you can keep it as "a gift" but how does that work if I signed something for UPS… Do I just use the same laws? Or no because UPS isn't a part of the government?
You're not suppose to sign for something that doesn't have your name on it. And the post office doesn't give people gifts either. If you get wrong mail, you're suppose to return it to the post office or not sign for it. It's the property of the sender and the post office doesn't give gifts to people from someone who wrote the wrong name in the package. Same goes for UPS
It wasn't shipped to your name. You need to contact UPS or the company. Especially with you having signed for the package, you will have to return it or pay for it.
The "gift" thing might apply if the package had been addressed to your name, but it wasn't. It is just a shipping error that you can help them resolve now by contacting them, or later by paying for it.
- Would it be okay to put logos of other companies in without permission in my art? I'm joining this nationwide art competition in my country with the theme of "consumerism." I'm planning on putting an iPhone on my artwork but instead it will say iDiot. Will designing it in a slightly altered way avoid lawsuits? Do you think the competition will reject my entry if they saw a representation of the iPhone? It will not be the main object in my piece, just a little accessory. Like really small.
- Should i ship via, ups or usps? I sold an iPhone on eBay for 240 dollars. I will be shipping it tomorrow. He paid 15 usd for shipping but i have heard bad things about shipping via USPS. Should i ship it via ups and pay about 23 dollars?
- Does iphone 5s have any other password options other than touch id? I just wanna know because I feel like it would make it better if you could do anything, and not always have to use the scanner.
- Doctor Who iPhone app - what copyright laws apply here? So say I want to make a Doctor Who themed iPhone app. Say, a sonic screwdriver that makes cool noises. Would there be any laws against this?
