Terms & Conditions

Terms and Conditions Agreement

PLEASE READ THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS CAREFULLY. THE TERMS AND CONDITIONS (“AGREEMENT”) CONSTITUTE A LEGAL AGREEMENT BETWEEN YOU AND FOODONE, INC., A DELAWARE CORPORATION, AND ITS SUBSIDIARIES AND AFFILIATED COMPANIES, (COLLECTIVELY, “FOODONE,” “WE,” “US,” OR “OUR”).

THIS AGREEMENT CONTAINS PROVISIONS THAT GOVERN HOW CLAIMS THAT YOU AND WE HAVE AGAINST EACH OTHER ARE RESOLVED, INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, ANY CLAIMS THAT AROSE OR WERE ASSERTED BEFORE THE EFFECTIVE DATE OF THIS AGREEMENT. IN PARTICULAR, SECTION 12 SETS FORTH OUR ARBITRATION AGREEMENT WHICH WILL, WITH LIMITED EXCEPTIONS, REQUIRE DISPUTES BETWEEN US TO BE SUBMITTED TO BINDING AND FINAL ARBITRATION. UNLESS YOU OPT OUT OF THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT: (1) YOU WILL ONLY BE PERMITTED TO PURSUE CLAIMS AND SEEK RELIEF AGAINST US ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING, EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 12(G); AND (2) YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO SEEK RELIEF IN A COURT OF LAW AND TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL ON YOUR CLAIMS. THE ARBITRATION AGREEMENT COULD AFFECT YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN PENDING PROPOSED CLASS ACTION LITIGATION.

1. Acceptance of this Agreement

FoodOne provides an online marketplace connection, using web-based technology that connects you and other consumers, restaurants and/or other businesses and independent delivery contractors (“Contractors”). FoodOne’s software permits consumers to place orders for food and/or other goods from various restaurants and businesses, either for delivery or pickup (the “Software”). Once a delivery order is made, the Software notifies Contractors that a delivery opportunity is available and the Software facilitates completion of the delivery to the consumer. Once a pickup order is made, the Software communicates with the customer regarding the availability of the order for pickup. FoodOne is not a restaurant, delivery service, or food preparation business.

If you install or use our FoodOne mobile application, install or use any other software supplied by FoodOne, or access any information, function, or service available or enabled by FoodOne (each, a “Service” and collectively, the “Services”), or complete the FoodOne account registration process, you, your heirs, assigns, and successors (collectively, “you” or “your”) hereby represent and warrant that:

• you have read, understand, and agree to be bound by this Agreement;
• you are of legal age in the jurisdiction in which you reside to form a binding contract with FoodOne; and
• you have the authority to enter into the Agreement personally and, if applicable, on behalf of any organization on whose behalf you have created an account and to bind such organization to the Agreement.

The terms “User” and “Users” refer to all individuals and other persons who access or use the Services, including, without limitation, any organizations that register accounts or otherwise access or use the Services through their respective representatives. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement, if you do not agree to be bound by the Agreement, you may not access or use the Services.

2. Modifications

Subject to Section 12(k) of this Agreement, FoodOne reserves the right to modify the terms and conditions of this Agreement or its policies relating to the Software or Services at any time, effective upon posting of an updated version of this Agreement through the Services.

5. Contractors and Merchants Are Independent

You understand and agree that FoodOne provides a technology platform connecting you with independent food service providers and others that provide the products offered through the Services (“Merchants”), and independent third-party contractors who provide delivery services (“Contractors”). You acknowledge and agree that FoodOne does not itself prepare food or offer delivery services, and has no responsibility or liability for the acts or omissions of any Merchant or any Contractor. Merchant is the retailer; the services offered by FoodOne pursuant to this Agreement do not include any retail services or any food preparation services. FoodOne is not in the delivery business nor is it a common carrier. FoodOne provides a technology platform facilitating the transmission of orders by Users to Merchants for pickup or delivery by Contractors. FoodOne will not assess or guarantee the suitability, legality or ability of any Contractor or Merchant. You agree that FoodOne 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 by the Merchants and/or delivered by the Contractor, and does not verify Merchants’ compliance with applicable laws or regulations. FoodOne has no responsibility or liability for acts or omissions by any Merchant or Contractor.

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 Contractor will be directed by your instructions to transport the products to your designated delivery location. You agree that neither the Contractor nor FoodOne holds title to or acquires any ownership interest in any goods that you order through the Services.

6. User Account

You may be required to register for an account to use parts of the Services. You must provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process and at all other times when you use the Services, and to update the information to keep it accurate, current, and complete. You are the sole authorized user of any account you create through the Services. You are solely and fully responsible for all activities that occur under your password or account. You agree that you shall monitor your account to prevent use by minors, and you will accept full responsibility for any unauthorized use of your password or your account. You may not authorize others to use your User status, and you may not assign or otherwise transfer your User account to any other person or entity. Should you suspect that any unauthorized party may be using your password or account, you will notify FoodOne immediately. FoodOne will not be liable and you may be liable for losses, damages, liability, expenses, and fees incurred by FoodOne or a third party arising from someone else using your account, regardless of whether you have notified us of such unauthorized use. If you provide any information that is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, or FoodOne has reasonable grounds to suspect that such information is untrue, inaccurate, not current, or incomplete, FoodOne has the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse any and all current or future use of the Services (or any portion thereof). We may enable or require you to use a single pair of login credentials to use the FoodOne services. You agree not to create an account or use the Services if you have been previously removed by FoodOne, or if you have been previously banned from use of the Services.

7. User Content

• User Content: FoodOne may provide you with interactive opportunities through the Services, including, by way of example, the ability to post User ratings and reviews (collectively, “User Content”). You represent and warrant that you are the owner of, or otherwise have the right to provide, all User Content that you submit, post and/or otherwise transmit through the Services. You further represent and warrant that any User Content that you submit, post and/or otherwise transmit through the Services
  • does not violate any third-party right, including any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, privacy right, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property or proprietary right;
  • does not contain material that is false, intentionally misleading, or defamatory;
  • does not contain any material that is unlawful;
  • does not violate any law or regulation; and
  • does not violate this Agreement. You hereby grant FoodOne a perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, fully paid, royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide, fully sublicenseable right and license to use, copy, display, publish, modify, remove, publicly perform, translate, create derivative works, distribute and/or otherwise use the User Content in connection with FoodOne’s business and in all forms now known or hereafter invented (“Uses”), without notification to and/or approval by you. You further grant FoodOne a license to use your username, first name and last initial, and/or other User profile information, including without limitation, your ratings history, to attribute User Content to you in connection with such Uses, without notification or approval by you. You agree that this license includes the right for other Users to access and use your User Content in conjunction with participation in the Services and as permitted through the functionality of the Services. In the interest of clarity, the license granted to FoodOne herein shall survive termination of the Services or your account. FoodOne reserves the right in its sole discretion to remove or disable access to any User Content from the Services, suspend or terminate your account at any time, or pursue any other remedy or relief available under equity or law if you post any User Content that violates this Agreement or any community or content guidelines we may publish or that we consider to be objectionable for any reason. You agree that FoodOne may monitor and/or delete your User Content (but does not assume the obligation) for any reason in FoodOne’s sole discretion. FoodOne may also access, read, preserve, and disclose any information as FoodOne reasonably believes is necessary to
    • satisfy any applicable law, regulation, legal process, or governmental request,
    • enforce this Agreement, including investigation of potential violations hereof,
    • detect, prevent, or otherwise address fraud, security, or technical issues,
    • respond to User support requests, or
    • protect the rights, property or safety of FoodOne, its Users and the public.
• Feedback: You agree that any submission of any ideas, suggestions, and/or proposals to FoodOne through its suggestion, feedback, wiki, forum or similar pages (“Feedback”) is at your own risk and that FoodOne has no obligations (including without limitation, obligations of confidentiality) with respect to such Feedback. You represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary to submit the Feedback and you hereby grant to FoodOne a perpetual, irrevocable, transferable, fully paid, royalty-free, non-exclusive, worldwide, fully sublicenseable right and license to use, copy, display, publish, modify, remove, publicly perform, translate, create derivative works, distribute and/or otherwise use such Feedback.
• Ratings and Reviews: To the extent that you are asked to rate and post reviews of Merchants or other businesses (“Ratings” and “Reviews”), such Ratings and Reviews are considered User Content and are governed by this Agreement. Ratings and Reviews are not endorsed by FoodOne and do not represent the views of FoodOne or its affiliates. FoodOne shall have no liability for Ratings and Reviews or for any claims for economic loss resulting from such Ratings and Reviews. Because we strive to maintain a high level of integrity with respect to Ratings and Reviews posted or otherwise made available through the Services, you agree that:
  • you will base any Rating or Review on first-hand experience with the Merchant or business;
  • you will not provide a Rating or Review for any Merchant or business for which you have an ownership interest, employment relationship or other affiliation or for any of that company’s competitors;
  • you will not submit a Rating or Review in exchange for payment, free food items, or other benefits from a Merchant or business;
  • any Rating or Review you submit will comply with the Federal Trade Commission’s Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising; and
  • your Rating or Review will comply with the terms of this Agreement. If we determine, in our sole discretion, that any Rating or Review could diminish the integrity of the Ratings and Reviews or otherwise violates this Agreement, we may remove such User Content without notice.

8. Communications with FoodOne

By creating a FoodOne account, you electronically agree to accept and receive communications from FoodOne, Contractors, or third parties providing services to FoodOne including via email, text message, calls, and push notifications to the cellular telephone number you provided to FoodOne. You understand and agree that you may receive communications generated by automatic telephone dialing systems and/or which will deliver prerecorded messages sent by or on behalf of FoodOne, its affiliated companies and/or Contractor, including but not limited to communications concerning orders placed through your account on the Services. Message and data rates may apply. If you do not wish to receive promotional emails, text messages, or other communications, you may change your notification preferences by accessing Settings in your account. To opt out of receiving promotional text messages from FoodOne, you must reply “STOP” from the mobile device receiving the messages. For purposes of clarity, delivery text messages between you and Riders are transactional text messages, not promotional text messages.

9. E-SIGN Disclosure

By creating a FoodOne account, you also consent to the use of an electronic record to document your agreement. You may withdraw your consent to the use of the electronic record to view and retain a copy of this disclosure, you will need (i) a device (such as a computer or mobile phone) with a web browser and Internet access and (ii) either a printer or storage space on such device.

10. Intellectual Property Ownership

FoodOne alone (and its licensors, where applicable) shall own all right, title and interest, including all related intellectual property rights, in and to the Software and the Services. This Agreement is not a sale and does not convey to you any rights of ownership in or related to the Software or the Services, or any intellectual property rights owned by FoodOne. FoodOne names, FoodOne logos, and the product names associated with the Software and Services are trademarks of FoodOne or third parties, and no right or license is granted to use them. You agree that you will not remove, alter or obscure any copyright, trademark, service mark or other proprietary rights notices incorporated in or accompanying the Software or the Services.

11. 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) FoodOne has no obligation to itemize its costs, profits or margins when publishing such prices; and (c) FoodOne 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, FoodOne 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 this Agreement (other than taxes based on FoodOne’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, FoodOne 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 FoodOne or its payments processor, using the preferred payment method designated in your account. 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. FoodOne has no obligation to provide refunds or credits, but may grant them, in each case in FoodOne’s sole discretion.
• Promotional Offers and Credits: FoodOne, 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 FoodOne; (iii) are subject to the specific terms that FoodOne 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 or in FoodOne’s Terms and Conditions for Promotional Offers and Credits. FoodOne reserves the right to withhold or deduct credits or benefits obtained through a promotion in the event that FoodOne 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. FoodOne reserves the right to modify or cancel an offer at any time. FoodOne’s Terms and Conditions for Promotional Offers and Credits apply to all promotional offers. You agree that we may change FoodOne’s Terms and Conditions for Promotional Offers and Credits at any time. FoodOne may also offer gratuitous credits, which can be used for the Services. Any credit issued by FoodOne 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. Credits issued through a User’s FoodOne account may only be redeemed through that respective brand’s Services.
• Fees for Services: FoodOne may change the fees for our Services as we deem necessary or appropriate for our business, including but not limited to Delivery Fees, Service Fees, Small Order Fees, and Surge Fees. FoodOne 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.
• Rider Subscriptions:
  General: Rider is an automatically renewing subscription requiring recurring payments. A Rider subscription grants you access to reduced fees on orders placed through the Services for eligible restaurants with a minimum subtotal as stated when you sign up (excluding taxes and tips) (“Reduced Fees”). Reduced Fees and other Rider benefits may be redeemed only at eligible restaurants, as indicated through the Services. FoodOne reserves the right to change whether a restaurant is eligible for Rider at any time with or without notice. Rider orders are subject to delivery driver and geographic availability, and taxes may apply to the cost of the items you order. You may provide an optional gratuity. Depending on the conditions as stated when you sign up, Service Fees and other fees may apply. We reserve the right to add and modify fees as discussed in this Section. Your Rider benefits will extend to FoodOne when you register for a Rider subscription.
  Rider is offered for a monthly or yearly fee payable at the start of the relevant period. By signing up for Rider and providing FoodOne with your payment account information, you agree that: (a) you will be charged your first Rider subscription fee and any applicable taxes on the date you purchase your Rider subscription; (b) you authorize FoodOne and its service providers to store your payment method for the purpose of executing future Rider auto-renewal transactions; (c) UNLESS YOU CANCEL, BY DEFAULT (AND WITH PRIOR NOTICE ONLY TO THE EXTENT REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW), YOUR RIDER SUBSCRIPTION WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW AT THE END OF THE THEN-CURRENT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD, and (d) AT THE TIME OF RENEWAL, FOODONE WILL AUTOMATICALLY CHARGE THE THEN-CURRENT RIDER FEE AND ANY APPLICABLE TAXES TO AN ELIGIBLE PAYMENT METHOD THAT WE HAVE ON FILE FOR YOU. 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 Rider subscription. If you would like to use a different payment method or if there is a change in payment method, please update your billing information.
  Corporate Rider Subscriptions: Notwithstanding any other provision in these terms, you may be eligible for a complimentary Rider subscription when your employer registers for a Corporate Rider Subscription. If you have a complimentary Rider subscription through your employer, your account will begin and end in accordance with the terms of your employer’s corporate subscription unless your subscription is otherwise cancelled. To receive the subscription benefits, you must register using your corporate email address and be an authorized user added by your employer, and then click the activation button.
  Trial or Promotional Subscriptions: From time to time, FoodOne offers some customers trial or other promotional subscriptions to Rider. Such trial or promotional subscriptions are subject to this Agreement and the FoodOne Terms and Conditions for Promotional Offers and Credits except as otherwise stated in the promotional offer. When your free trial period has expired, your subscription will automatically convert into a paid Rider subscription, and FoodOne will bill you the applicable fee. If you cancel Rider before the trial period has expired, FoodOne will not charge you for the Rider subscription. If you purchase a Rider subscription with a promotional code, each time your Rider subscription renews, you will be charged the full billing amount. Only one trial or promotional subscription is available per household. If your Rider subscription is ever terminated for any reason, you shall not be eligible for a free trial on any subsequent Rider subscription.

12. Dispute Resolution

PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH FOODONE AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF. THIS SECTION OF THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE REFERRED TO AS THE “ARBITRATION AGREEMENT”.

• Scope of Arbitration Agreement: You agree that any dispute or claim relating in any way to your access or use of the Services as a User of the Services, to any advertising or marketing communications regarding FoodOne or the Services, to any products or services sold or distributed through the Services that you received as a User of our Services, or to any aspect of your relationship or transactions with FoodOne as a User of our Services will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that (1) you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify, so long as the matter remains in such court and advances only on an individual (non-class, non-representative) basis; and (2) you or FoodOne may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). This Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all claims that arose or were asserted before the Effective Date of this Agreement.
  CASES HAVE BEEN FILED AGAINST FOODONE—AND OTHERS MAY BE FILED IN THE FUTURE—THAT ATTEMPT TO ASSERT CLASS ACTION CLAIMS, AND BY ACCEPTING THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT YOU ELECT NOT TO PARTICIPATE IN SUCH CASES.
  IF YOU AGREE TO ARBITRATION WITH FOODONE, YOU ARE AGREEING IN ADVANCE THAT YOU WILL NOT PARTICIPATE IN OR SEEK TO RECOVER MONETARY OR OTHER RELIEF IN ANY SUCH CLASS, COLLECTIVE, AND/OR REPRESENTATIVE LAWSUIT. INSTEAD, BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU MAY BRING YOUR CLAIMS AGAINST FOODONE IN AN INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION PROCEEDING. IF SUCCESSFUL ON SUCH CLAIMS, YOU COULD BE AWARDED MONEY OR OTHER RELIEF BY AN ARBITRATOR.
• Informal Resolution: You and FoodOne agree that good-faith informal efforts to resolve disputes often can result in a prompt, low-cost and mutually beneficial outcome. You and FoodOne therefore agree that, before either you or FoodOne demands arbitration against the other, we will personally meet and confer, via telephone or videoconference, in a good-faith effort to resolve informally any claim covered by this mutual Arbitration Agreement. If you are represented by counsel, your counsel may participate in the conference, but you shall also fully participate in the conference. The party initiating the claim must give notice to the other party in writing of its, his, or her intent to initiate an informal dispute resolution conference, which shall occur within 60 days after the other party receives such notice, unless an extension is mutually agreed upon by the parties. To notify FoodOne that you intend to initiate an informal dispute resolution conference providing your name, telephone number associated with your FoodOne account (if any), the email address associated with your FoodOne account, and a description of your claim. In the interval between the party receiving such notice and the informal dispute resolution conference, the parties shall be free to attempt to resolve the initiating party’s claims. Engaging in an informal dispute resolution conference is a requirement that must be fulfilled before commencing arbitration. The statute of limitations and any filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while the parties engage in the informal dispute resolution process required by this paragraph.
• Arbitration Rules and Forum: This Arbitration Agreement is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”) in all respects. If for whatever reason the rules and procedures of the FAA cannot apply, the state law governing arbitration agreements in the state in which you reside shall apply. Before a party may begin an arbitration proceeding, that party must send notice of an intent to initiate arbitration and certifying completion of the informal dispute resolution conference pursuant to paragraph 12(b). If this notice is being sent to FoodOne, it must be sent by email to the counsel who represented FoodOne in the informal dispute resolution process, or if there was no such counsel then by mail to General Counsel, at 303 2nd Street, Suite 800, San Francisco, CA, 94107. The arbitration will be conducted by ADR Services, Inc. under its rules and pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. Arbitration demands filed with ADR Services, Inc. must include (1) the name, telephone number, mailing address, and e-mail address of the party seeking arbitration; (2) a statement of the legal claims being asserted and the factual bases of those claims; (3) a description of the remedy sought and an accurate, good-faith calculation of the amount in controversy, enumerated in United States Dollars (any request for injunctive relief or attorneys’ fees shall not count toward the calculation of the amount in controversy unless such injunctive relief seeks the payment of money); and (4) the signature of the party seeking arbitration. Disputes shall be subject to ADR Services, Inc.’s most current version of its Arbitration Rules, available as of December 21, 2020 at https://www.adrservices.com/services/arbitration-rules or by calling ADR Services, Inc. at 310-201-0010. The fees that shall apply to arbitrations administered by ADR Services, Inc. are set forth on ADR Services, Inc.’s website, available as of December 21, 2020 at https://www.adrservices.com/rate-fee-schedule/. Specifically, the fees set forth in ADR Services, Inc.’s Mass Employment Arbitration Fee Schedule shall apply when twenty (20) or more arbitration claims are filed which: (1) involve the same or similar parties; (2) are based on the same or similar claims which arise from the same or substantially identical transactions, incidents, or events requiring the determination of the same or substantially identical questions of law or fact; and (3) involve the same or coordinated counsel for the parties. In all other circumstances, the fees set forth in ADR Services, Inc.’s General Fee Schedule shall apply, except that FoodOne will pay the portion of the initial case opening fees (if any) that exceeds the filing fee to file the case in a court of competent jurisdiction embracing the location of the arbitration. Payment of all filing, administration, and arbitration fees will be governed by ADR Services, Inc.’s rules. If the arbitrator finds that you cannot afford to pay ADR Services, Inc.’s filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees and cannot obtain a waiver of fees from ADR Services, Inc., FoodOne will pay them for you. If ADR Services, Inc. is not available to arbitrate, the parties will mutually select an alternative arbitral forum. You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, video conference, based on written submissions, or in person in the county where you live or at another mutually agreed location.
• Arbitrator Powers: The arbitrator, and not any federal, state, or local court or agency, shall have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to any claim that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. All disputes regarding the payment of arbitrator or arbitration-organization fees including the timing of such payments and remedies for nonpayment, shall be determined exclusively by an arbitrator, and not by any court. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and FoodOne. Except as expressly agreed to in Section 12(g) of this Agreement, the arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other proceedings or parties. The arbitrator will have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim or dispute. The arbitrator will have the authority to award, on an individual basis, monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and this Agreement (including this Arbitration Agreement). The arbitrator will issue a written statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which any award (or decision not to render an award) is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The award shall be binding only among the parties and shall have no preclusive effect in any other arbitration or other proceeding involving a different party. The arbitrator shall follow the applicable law. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The arbitrator’s decision is final and binding on you and FoodOne.
• Waiver of Jury Trial: YOU AND FOODONE WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND RECEIVE A JUDGE OR JURY TRIAL. You and FoodOne are instead electing to have claims and disputes resolved by arbitration, except as specified in Section 12(a) above. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited.
• Waiver of Class or Consolidated Actions: EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY AGREED TO IN SECTION 12(G) OF THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND FOODONE AGREE TO WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO RESOLVE CLAIMS WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT ON A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE BASIS. ALL CLAIMS AND DISPUTES WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 12(G). CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR LITIGATED JOINTLY OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER EXCEPT AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 12(G). If, however, this waiver of class or consolidated actions is deemed invalid or unenforceable with respect to a particular claim or dispute, neither you nor FoodOne is entitled to arbitration of such claim or dispute. Instead, all such claims and disputes will then be resolved in a court as set forth in Section 20. This provision does not prevent you or FoodOne from participating in a class-wide settlement of claims.
• Batch Arbitrations: To increase efficiency of resolution, in the event 100 or more similar arbitration demands against FoodOne, presented by or with the assistance of the same law firm or organization, are submitted to an arbitration provider selected in accordance with the rules described above within a 30-day period, the arbitration provider shall (i) group the arbitration demands into batches of no more than 100 demands per batch (plus, to the extent there are less than 100 arbitration demands left over after the batching described above, a final batch consisting of the remaining demands); and (ii) provide for resolution of each batch as a single arbitration with one set of filing and administrative fees and one arbitrator assigned per batch.

15. Transactions Involving Alcohol

You may have the option to request delivery of alcohol products in some locations and from certain Merchants. If you receive your delivery in the United States, you agree that you will only order alcohol products if you are 21 years of age or older. If you receive your delivery in another country, you agree that you will only order alcohol products if you are of legal age to purchase alcohol products in the relevant jurisdiction. You also agree that, upon delivery of alcohol products, you will provide valid government-issued identification proving your age to the Contractor delivering the alcohol products and that the recipient will not be intoxicated when receiving delivery of such products. If you order alcohol products, you understand and acknowledge that neither FoodOne nor the Contractor can accept your order of alcohol products, and the order will only be delivered if the Merchant accepts your order. The Contractor reserves the right to refuse delivery if you are not 21 years old, if you cannot provide a valid government issued ID, if the name on your ID does not match the name on your order, or you are visibly intoxicated. If the Contractor is unable to complete the delivery of alcohol products for one or more of these reasons, you are subject to a non-refundable $20 re-stocking fee.

16. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless FoodOne and its officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates (each, an “Indemnified Party”), from and against any losses, claims, actions, costs, damages, penalties, fines and expenses, including without limitation, attorneys’ fees and expenses, that may be incurred by an Indemnified Party arising out of, relating to or resulting from (a) your User Content; (b) your misuse of the Software or Services; (c) your breach of this Agreement or any representation, warranty or covenant in this Agreement; or (d) your violation of any applicable laws, rules or regulations through or related to the use of the Software or Services. In the event of any claim, allegation, suit or proceeding alleging any matter potentially covered by the agreements in this Section, you agree to pay for the defense of the Indemnified Party, including reasonable costs and attorneys’ fees incurred by the Indemnified Party. FoodOne reserves the right, at its own cost, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which event you will fully cooperate with FoodOne in asserting any available defenses. This provision does not require you to indemnify any Indemnified Party for any unconscionable commercial practice by such party, or for such party’s negligence, fraud, deception, false promise, misrepresentation or concealment, suppression or omission of any material fact in connection with the Software or Services. You agree that the provisions in this section will survive any termination of your account, this Agreement, or your access to the Software and/or Services.
