Christmas 2020 AR Experience terms & conditions
New Zealand Post Augmented Reality Christmas - Terms and Conditions
New Zealand Post (us, we or our) is offering its customers (you) the New Zealand Post Augmented Reality Experience (AR Experience) this Christmas.
To offer our AR Experience, we use the Magenta App developed by Insight Creative for the AR Experience to display on your phone (App), and we have developed a Quick Response code (QR code) using QR Code Generator to make it easy for you to scan our specially designed QR stamps in order for you to use the App and enjoy the AR Experience.
Although it’s easy to skip these terms and conditions (Terms), it is important that you read them because they set out important information about your use of the App. Please review these Terms regularly because we may update them without providing you with notice.
If you are under 18 years old, then please ask your parent or guardian to read these Terms with you.
These Terms should be read in conjunction with our Terms and Conditions available here: https://www.nzpost.co.nz/about-us/who-we-are/terms-of-business/standard-terms-products-services/public-contract. Our Terms and Conditions will prevail if there is a conflict between them and these Terms.
How the App Works
The App provides you with a single user, non-assignable, royalty-free, non-exclusive licence to view and interact with the App to undertake our AR Experience.
The App requires access to your device’s camera to track images or detect appropriate flat surfaces to generate the augmented reality and you will need to enable the App to use and access your camera.
The App uses the camera on your smartphone or tablet to digitally impose the customised AR Experience over the camera lens view. When you focus your camera lens on one of our specifically designed QR Code Christmas stamps, you will be able to review enjoy the AR Experience and learn about the Christmas nativity story.
