11.2 Accountability: We hold ourselves accountable for preventing modern slavery in our business operations.
12. THE LIMITS OF WHAT WE CAN CONTROL
We believe it is more honest to be clear about the limits of our influence than to claim more than we can deliver.
12.1 Dropshipping Model Constraints: As a dropshipping business, we do not own or operate manufacturing facilities and have no direct control over factory working conditions, supplier labour practices, manufacturing locations, subcontractors, or supply chains beyond our immediate suppliers. We cannot audit or monitor all aspects of global supply chains, and we cannot independently verify every claim a supplier or brand makes about their own practices.
12.2 Reasonable Efforts: Within those constraints, we conduct due diligence on our direct suppliers wherever possible, work with reputable brands and authorised distributors in regulated markets, and respond promptly to any credible report of modern slavery. This policy represents our commitment on a best efforts basis, and does not create warranties or guarantees regarding practices beyond our direct control.
12.3 Third-Party Responsibility: Suppliers, contractors, manufacturers, brands, distributors, and all third parties in the supply chain remain solely responsible for their own compliance with modern slavery laws, their labour practices and working conditions, their own supply chain due diligence, and the accuracy of any representations they make to us. We accept no liability for modern slavery occurring in any part of the supply chain beyond our direct control, or for the acts or omissions of third parties.
12.4 Customer Acknowledgment: By purchasing from our store, customers acknowledge that we operate a dropshipping model with limited supply chain control, that products may originate from global supply chains with varying labour standards, and that while we make reasonable efforts, we cannot eliminate all modern slavery risk.
13. POLICY REVIEW
13.1 Annual Review: This policy is reviewed annually and updated as needed.
13.2 Continuous Improvement: We continuously assess and improve our approach to preventing modern slavery within the constraints of our business model.
13.3 Stakeholder Feedback: We welcome feedback on our modern slavery practices.
14. GOVERNANCE
14.1 Responsibility: Ultimate responsibility for this policy rests with the directors of Ultima NZ Limited.
14.2 Implementation: Day-to-day implementation is managed by our operations team.
14.3 Compliance: All staff are responsible for complying with this policy.
15. LEGAL COMPLIANCE AND JURISDICTION
15.1 New Zealand Law: This policy is governed by New Zealand law. We comply with New Zealand's obligations under international conventions against forced labour and human trafficking.
15.2 International Compliance: Where we operate in other jurisdictions, we comply with applicable modern slavery legislation, including the UK Modern Slavery Act 2015, the Australian Modern Slavery Act 2018, and the California Transparency in Supply Chains Act, where those apply to us.
15.3 No Extraterritorial Liability: We are not liable for compliance with foreign modern slavery laws in jurisdictions where we do not have a legal obligation to comply.
15.4 Voluntary Commitment: Where not legally required, this policy represents our voluntary ethical commitment, and does not create third-party rights.
