The Website and the The Grubbies Services

The Website and the The Grubbies Services are a third-party marketplace for customers (“Customers”) to view, discuss, and place orders for food and beverages, and pick- up and/or delivery services in connection therewith, with participating restaurants (the “Restaurants”). The Grubbies provides order placement services only. The Grubbies is not a merchant of food or beverages, or provider of any pickup or delivery services in connection therewith, and does not control the Restaurants or the production of any food or beverages, or any pick-up or delivery services therewith.

The Restaurants have entered into agreements with The Grubbies to comply with federal, state and local laws, rules, regulations, and standards pertaining to food preparation, sale, marketing and safety. The Grubbies, including the Website and the The Grubbies Services, does not in any way independently verify the credentials or representations of any of the Restaurants, the ingredients or the quality of any their products or services, or any Restaurant’s compliance with applicable laws.

Customers using the The Grubbies Services must make themselves comfortable through the information provided by the Restaurants on the Website, by contacting the Restaurants directly, or through such other means or methods as they may deem appropriate, as to the quality and reliability and quality of the Restaurants and the Restaurants’ compliance with applicable laws. The Grubbies, including the Website and the The Grubbies Services, does not in any way guarantee the quality of any Restaurant or any food or beverage, or any pickup- up or delivery service in connection therewith, or any compliance thereof with applicable laws. In addition, a Restaurant may represent certain standards with respect to their food preparation (or other services), such as “organic,” “kosher,” “macrobiotic” or allergen- specific standards such as “nut-free,” “gluten-free,” or “lactose-free”; The Grubbies does not investigate or verify any such representations. The Grubbies shall not be liable or responsible for any food or beverages, or any other services, offered by the Restaurants or any errors or misrepresentations made by them (including on the Website and through the The Grubbies Services).

We do take customer satisfaction very seriously and, in addition to contacting the applicable Restaurant directly, we ask that you notify The Grubbies of all complaints or concerns that you might have regarding the Restaurants.

ORDERING AND PAYMENT

When you place an order through the The Grubbies Services, you will be given a choice of payment options, which may include via Apple Pay, Credit Card, PayPal®, Android Pay, and direct payment to the applicable Restaurant. If you pay for your purchase via Apple Pay, Credit Card, PayPal, or Android Pay, we will ask for a valid Apple Pay account, Credit Card, PayPal account, or Android Pay account, as applicable, which will be billed through the The Grubbies Services, for the purchase price of the applicable order, and “The Grubbies” will be the name that appears on the Apple Pay, Credit Card, PayPal, or Android Pay statement, as applicable. As stated above, however, The Grubbies, including the Website and the The Grubbies Services, is not and shall not in any manner be considered the seller of any of the food, beverages, and services ordered.

REFUND POLICY

The Grubbies takes customer satisfaction very seriously. If you have any problems with your order, we ask that you contact the Restaurant directly, but, if you have not been able to resolve your issue with the Restaurant to your satisfaction, please contact The Grubbies and we will try to assist you.

All such Additional Terms are hereby incorporated by reference into, and made a part of, these Terms.

GOVERNING LAW

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California without regard to conflict of law principles. If a lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under these Terms, you and The Grubbies agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within San Francisco County, CA for the purpose of litigating any dispute. We operate the The Grubbies Service from our offices in San Bruno, and we make no representation that the The Grubbies Services are appropriate or available for use in other locations.

DISPUTES

If there is a dispute between users of the Website, or between users and any third party (including any Restaurant), you understand and agree that The Grubbies (including the Website and the The Grubbies Services) is under no obligation to become involved. In the event that you have any such dispute between users and any third party (including any Restaurant), you hereby release The Grubbies (including the Website and the The Grubbies Services), its directors, officers, employees, service providers, affiliates, agents and successors from all claims, demands, and damages (actual and consequential) of every kind or nature, known or unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way related to such disputes.

In the interest of resolving disputes between you and The Grubbies in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and The Grubbies agree that every dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Our agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND THE GRUBBIES ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

Despite the provisions of the paragraph directly above, we both agree that nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either of us to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

Any arbitration between you and The Grubbies will be governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, "AAA Rules") of the American Arbitration Association ("AAA"), as modified by these Terms, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting The Grubbies.

A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other, by certified mail or Federal Express (signature required), or if we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail ("Notice"). The Grubbies's address for Notice is: The Grubbies, LLC, 140 New Montgomery St, San Francisco, CA 94105. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought ("Demand"). We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or The Grubbies may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or The Grubbies must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If our dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, The Grubbies will pay you the highest of the following: (i) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (ii) the last written settlement amount offered by The Grubbies in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (iii) $1,000.

If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, The Grubbies will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in San Francisco County, California, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you agree to reimburse The Grubbies for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

YOU AND THE GRUBBIES AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and The Grubbies agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

If The Grubbies makes any future change to this arbitration provision (other than a change to The Grubbies's address for Notice), you may reject the change by sending us written notice within 30 days of the change to The Grubbies's address for Notice, in which case your account with The Grubbies will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject will survive.

If the paragraph above regarding class or representative proceedings is found to be unenforceable or if the entirety of this Disputes Section is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this Disputes Section will be null and void and, in that case, the parties agree that the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Governing Law Section will govern any action arising out of or related to these Terms.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE GRUBBIES OR ITS DIRECTORS, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, SERVICE PROVIDERS, AFFILIATES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR ANY INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING LOST PROFIT DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE WEBSITE OR THE GRUBBIES SERVICES, EVEN IF THE GRUBBIES HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY CONTAINED HEREIN, The Grubbies’S LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY CAUSE WHATSOEVER AND REGARDLESS OF THE FORM OF THE ACTION, WILL AT ALL TIMES BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT PAID, IF ANY, BY YOU TO THE GRUBBIES FOR ORDER PLACED BY YOU THROUGH THE THE GRUBBIES SERVICES DURING THE PERIOD OF 1 MONTH PRIOR TO ANY CAUSE OF ACTION INITIALLY ARISING.

CERTAIN STATE LAWS DO NOT ALLOW LIMITATIONS ON IMPLIED WARRANTIES OR THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES. IF THESE LAWS APPLY TO YOU, SOME OR ALL OF THE ABOVE DISCLAIMERS OR LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU, AND YOU MAY HAVE ADDITIONAL RIGHTS.
