4.Privacy Statement

 You may view a copy of our Privacy Statement on this page (“Privacy Statement”), which explains our practices relating to the collection and use of your information through or in connection with our Services.

5.Merchants Are Independent

You understand and agree that MealMe provides a technology platform connecting you with independent food service providers and others that provide the products offered through the Services (“Merchants”). You acknowledge and agree that MealMe does not itself prepare food or offer delivery services, and has no responsibility or liability for the acts or omissions of any Merchant. Merchant is the retailer; the services offered by MealMe pursuant to these Terms do not include any retail services or any food preparation or delivery services. MealMe is not in the delivery business nor is it a common carrier. MealMe provides a technology platform facilitating the transmission of orders by you to Merchants for pickup by you or delivery by Merchants. MealMe will not assess or guarantee the suitability, legality or ability of any Merchant. You agree that MealMe is not responsible for the Merchants’ food preparation or the safety of the food or whether the photographs or images displayed through the Services accurately reflect the food prepared and/or delivered by the Merchants, and does not verify Merchants’ compliance with applicable laws or regulations. MealMe has no responsibility or liability for acts or omissions by any Merchant. 

You agree that the goods that you purchase will be prepared by the Merchant you have selected, that title to the goods passes from the Merchant to you at the Merchant’s location, and that, for delivery orders, the Merchant will be directed by your instructions to transport the products to your designated delivery location. You agree that MealMe neither holds title to nor acquires any ownership interest in any goods that you order through the Services.

 

 

6.Registration, Access & Security 

If you use any of our services or provide us any information through the Services, such as your name,  age,  credit card information,  address, zip code, phone number, contact details, email address, and/or your password (collectively, your “Account Data”) for any accounts associated with you (your “Account(s)”), you agree to provide true, accurate, current, complete and up-to-date information. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, non-current or incomplete, or we have reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, non-current or incomplete, then we have the right to terminate or refuse any and all current or future access or use of the Services (or any portion thereof). We reserve the right to take any action that we deem necessary to ensure the security of the Services and your Account, including without limitation terminating your Account or requesting additional information to authorize transactions on your Account. You are solely responsible for keeping your Account Data and any username, password, security questions and responses associated with your Account confidential. Anyone with knowledge of or access to your Account Data or the security questions and responses associated with your Account can use that information to gain access to your Account. You are solely liable for any claims, damages, losses, costs or other liabilities resulting from or caused by any failure to keep your Account Data and the security questions and responses confidential, whether such failure occurs with or without your knowledge or consent. You must immediately notify us of any suspected or actual unauthorized access to or use of your Account Data or any other breach of your Account security.

You are responsible for providing and maintaining, at your own risk, option and expense, any hardware, software and communication lines required to access and use the Services, and we reserve the right to change the access configuration of the Services at any time without prior notice.

7.Payment Terms

Prices & Charges

You understand that: (a) the prices for menu or other items displayed through the Services may differ from the prices offered or published by Merchants for the same menu or other items and/or from prices available at third-party websites and that such prices may not be the lowest prices at which the menu or other items are sold; (b) MealMe has no obligation to itemize its costs, profits or margins when publishing such prices; and (c) MealMe reserves the right to change such prices at any time, at its discretion. For certain transactions, the subtotals shown at checkout are estimates that may be higher or lower depending on the final in- store totals. In those situations, MealMe reserves the right to charge your payment method the final price after checkout. You are liable for all transaction taxes on the Services provided under these Terms (other than taxes based on MealMe’s income). In the event that the charge to your payment method may incorrectly differ from the total amount, including subtotal, fees, and gratuity, displayed to you at checkout and/or after gratuity is selected, MealMe reserves the right to make an additional charge to your payment method after the initial charge so that the total amount charged is consistent with the total amount displayed to you at checkout and/or after gratuity is selected. All payments will be processed by MealMe or its payments processor. If your payment details change, your card provider may provide us with updated card details. We may use these new details or details from other cards on file in order to help prevent any interruption to your Use of the Services. If you would like to use a different payment method or if there is a change in payment method, please update your billing information.

No Refunds

Charges paid by you for completed and delivered orders are final and non-refundable. MealMe has no obligation to provide refunds or credits, but may grant them, in each case in MealMe’s sole discretion.

Promotional Offers and Credits

MealMe, at its sole discretion, may make promotional offers with different features and different rates to any user. These promotional offers are subject to the terms of this Agreement and may be valid only for certain users as indicated in the offer. You agree that promotional offers: (i) may only be used by the intended audience, for the intended purpose, and in a lawful manner; (ii) may not be duplicated, sold or transferred in any manner, or made available to the general public, unless expressly permitted by MealMe; (iii) are subject to the specific terms that MealMe establishes for such promotional offer; (iv) cannot be redeemed for cash or cash equivalent; and (v) are not valid for use after the date indicated in the offer. MealMe reserves the right to withhold or deduct credits or benefits obtained through a promotion in the event that MealMe determines or believes that the redemption of the promotion or receipt of the credit or benefit was in error, fraudulent, illegal, or in violation of the applicable promotion terms or this Agreement. MealMe reserves the right to modify or cancel an offer at any time. MealMe may also offer gratuitous credits, which can be used for the Services. Any credit issued by MealMe is valid for 6 months from the date of issue except to the extent prohibited under applicable law and may not be redeemed for cash or cash equivalent. Upon expiration, credits will be removed from your account. Expired credits are no longer redeemable and cannot be used towards any order.

Fees for Services and Payment Processing

MealMe may change the fees for our Services as we deem necessary or appropriate for our business.  MealMe may also charge merchants fees on orders that you place through the Services, including commissions and other fees, and may change those merchant fees as we deem necessary or appropriate for our business or to comply with applicable law. In the MealMe SDK, MealMe is the payment processor and serves at the merchant of record. MealMe is a separate entity from the merchant or retailer, and acts as an intermediary between the merchant and the payment processor or acquiring bank. With the MealMe SDK, MealMe is responsible for managing the customer relationship when it comes to customer support, refunds, and chargebacks, which is why there may be service fees.

MealMe shall have no liability for Ratings and Reviews or for any claims for economic loss resulting from such Ratings and Reviews.
