By agreeing to these Terms, you hereby certify that you are at least 16 years of age. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Services.
2. ACCOUNT REGISTRATION
A. In order to access or use our Services, you may be required to create a Wyzly account (“Account”) and become a user (“Registered User”) of the Services. During the registration process, you will be required to provide certain information and establish a username and a password. You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process and at other times when you use the Services and to update such information to keep it accurate, current, and complete.
B. We reserve the right to refuse to keep Accounts for or provide Services to any individual if we have a valid reason thereto. We also have the right to immediately suspend your account, pause or cancel your access to the Services, or close your account if we suspect, in our sole discretion, that (a) your account is being used for money laundering or any illegal activity; (b) you have concealed or provided false identification information or other details; (c) you have engaged in fraudulent activity; (d) you have made transactions using inappropriate methods (including but not limited to using stolen funds or payments methods or attempting to chargeback your payment while retaining or disposing of an item); (e) you are using, employing, or operating bots or other forms of automation and/or multiple accounts to engage in any activity; or (f) you have otherwise acted in violation of these Terms.

3. WYZLY SERVICES AND PAYMENT
A. Supply of Food Items.
Wyzly collaborates with local merchants to offer you the opportunity to purchase and pick up food item(s) that would otherwise go to waste. In the discovery view in the Services, merchants are displayed on a map. In the list below, merchants are listed in order of distance to where you are located (the merchants closest to you are shown first in the list). When entering into a merchant view, items for sale are listed based on (a) if the item has a picture and (b) the sales value of the item. The supply of food items depends on each merchant’s daily business; as such, it is not guaranteed that food is available at all times you use the Services. Our Services are not the provider or the producer of the food items listed in the Service, nor is Wyzly responsible for the information given about each food item. The provider of the food items is responsible for all the information regarding the food item. Would you have any questions regarding given information about a food item, Wyzly will direct you to the merchant.
B. Order and Payment of the Order.
As a Registered User, you can place an order for a food item through Wyzly Services. After placing the order you will get an order confirmation via the user interface of the Services. You pay for food items you order through the Services. If an order has not been paid for through the Services, it will not be considered a completed order. Furthermore, as all food items are sold on a first-come, first-serve basis, we cannot guarantee that you will get the food item you have started but have yet to finish ordering. We may use a payment service provided by a third party to handle the payment and will automatically charge your chosen account when you place your order.
You agree to make a payment for orders that you place through Wyzly Services, and you authorize us to charge your debit or credit card or process other means of payment for those payments. All prices are indicated in U.S. currency and are exclusive of any applicable sales tax. We work with payment service providers to offer you the most convenient payment methods in your country and to keep your payment information secure. We may update your payment methods using information provided by our payment service providers. Check out our Privacy Notice for more details.
C. Pick Up of Order.
Upon arrival, you show the merchant the order confirmation in the Wyzly Services. The merchant also has the ability to confirm your order in the merchant application by identifying you by name. When using the Services, you must always pick up the food item(s) ordered from the applicable merchant’s premises in a timely manner during the time frame provided by the merchant. If you do not collect your order during the given time frame, the merchant has the right to do as they see fit with the ordered food item. Unless stated otherwise by the merchant, you are not entitled to a refund for ordered food items that have not been collected on time.
D. Wyzly Service Fees.
Wyzly may, at its discretion, charge any applicable fees for the use of various portions of the Wyzly Services. Please refer to specific Wylzy service fee information given on our Websites.
E. Refund.
At our sole discretion, if we believe you are abusing our refund policy, we reserve the right to deny your refund, restrict you from other future refunds, ban your account, and/or restrict all future use of the Services. If we ban your account or disable your access to the Services due to your violation of these Terms, you will not be eligible to receive a refund.
4. USING WYZLY AT YOUR OWN RISK
A. Our platform model means we are not responsible for the quality of the food items ordered through the Services or errors that may occur during the pickup of an order. We are not liable or responsible for any failure to perform or any delay in the performance of any obligations relating to the orders placed through the Services, including with respect to manufacturing, sale, purchase, storage, preparation, production, processing, marking, delivery, quality, ingredients, allergens, or handling of the food items. The merchant is responsible for all the Registered User reclamations concerning the food item, and Wyzly will direct the reclamations to the merchant. The cooperating merchants are committed to preparing the food items offered through the Services in compliance with the legislation concerning the handling, storing, and transportation of food and in accordance with the established principles and practices of the industry. If you detect a technical error or other error in the Wyzly Services, you can report the problem through the Services.
B. When you use Wyzly Services, you may find links to other websites that we do not own or control. We are not responsible for the content or any other aspect of these third-party sites, including their collection of information about you.

C. Wyzly is not liable or responsible for any failure or non-compliance with respect to the Services if circumstances outside Wyzly’s control cause such failure. Such circumstances may include, but are not limited to, disruptions in Wyzly’s operation as a result of legislation, acts of state or public authorities, acts of war, terrorism, strikes, physical blockades, lockouts, and natural disasters.
D. Under no circumstances shall the Wyzly releasees be liable to you or any third party for any direct, indirect, consequential, incidental, special, or punitive damages, whether in contract or tort, including without limitation, negligence, arising in any way out of any product or service available, sold or provided through the Services, including without limitation, lost profits, business interruption, or loss of programs or other data on computer systems or otherwise, without regard to whether Wyzly is expressly advised of the possibility of such damages.

9. GEOGRAPHIC RESTRICTIONS AND DISPUTE RESOLUTION
A. We intend to provide the Services for use by persons located in the United States. We make no claims that our Websites or any of the Services is accessible or appropriate outside of the United States. Access to the Services may not be legal by certain persons or in certain countries. If you access the Services from outside the United States, you do so on your own initiative and are responsible for compliance with local laws.
B. You agree that all matters relating to the Services, and these Terms, and any dispute or claim arising therefrom will be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California without giving effect to any choice or conflict of law provision or rule.
C. You agree that any dispute or claim arising from or relating to this Terms shall be settled by final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, using the English language, administered by the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (the “JAMS”) under its Arbitration Rules then in effect (those rules are deemed to be incorporated by reference into this section), unless otherwise required by law. Arbitration, including threshold questions of arbitrability of the dispute, will be handled by a sole arbitrator in accordance with those rules. The arbitrator shall follow any applicable law when rendering an award. Judgment on the arbitration award may be entered in any court that has jurisdiction. For all actions under the JAMS Arbitration Rules, the hearings will be conducted in San Francisco, California, or at another mutually agreed location.
D. Any arbitration under these Terms will take place on an individual basis. You understand that by agreeing to these Terms, you and Wyzly each waive the right to trial by jury or to participate in a class action lawsuit. Class arbitrations shall only be available if requested by either party under its Class Action Arbitration Rules and approved by the arbitration entity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, each party shall have the right to bring an action in a court of proper jurisdiction for injunctive or other equitable or conservatory relief, pending a final decision by the arbitrator. You may instead assert your claim in “small claims” court, but only if your claim qualifies does your claim remain in such court, and your claim remains on an individual, non-representative, and non-class basis.
E. Any legal action against Wyzly related to the Services must be filed and take place in San Francisco, California.

Our automated systems may analyze your information using techniques such as machine learning in order to improve the Services and the user experience.
C. You agree not to collect, process, or store any Sensitive Personal Information using the Services. You agree not to transmit, disclose, or make available Sensitive Personal Information to Wyzly or our third-party providers. “Sensitive Personal Information” means an individual’s financial information, sexual preferences, medical, or health information protected under any health data protection laws, biometric data (for purposes of uniquely identifying an individual), personal information of children protected under any child data protection laws (such as the personal information defined under the US Children’s Online Privacy Protection Act (“COPPA”)) and any additional types of information included within this term or any similar term (such as “sensitive personal data” or “special categories of personal information”) as used in applicable data protection or privacy laws.

11. MISCELLANEOUS

B. Any rights and licenses granted by this Terms may not be transferred or assigned by you but may be assigned by Wyzly without restriction. Any attempted transfer or assignment in violation hereof shall be null and void.
C. Whenever possible, each provision of these Terms shall be interpreted in such manner as to be effective and valid under applicable law, but if any provision of these Terms shall be held to be prohibited by or invalid under applicable law, such provision shall be ineffective only to the extent of such prohibition or invalidity, without invalidating the remainder of such provision or the remaining provisions of these Terms.
D. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy, and any other rules, regulations, procedures, and policies which we refer to and which are hereby incorporated herein by this reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and Wyzly with respect to the Services and it supersedes all prior or contemporaneous communications and proposals, whether electronic, oral, or written, between you and Wyzly with respect to the Services.
E. The captions and headings are for the convenience of reference only and shall not be used to construe the terms or meaning of any provisions of these Terms. You agree that you have reviewed and negotiated the terms and conditions of these Terms and have had the opportunity to contribute to its revision. Accordingly, the rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are resolved against the drafting party shall not be employed in the interpretation of these Terms. Instead, all the terms of these Terms shall be construed fairly as to both you and Wyzly and not in favor or against Wyzly.
F. Upon the expiration or termination of these Terms, some or all of the Services may cease to operate without prior notice. Sections 6, 8, 9, and 10 will survive the termination of these Terms.
G. Except as expressly permitted in this Terms, you may not (a) modify, port, adapt, or translate any portion of the Services; or (b) reverse engineer (including but not limited to monitoring or tracking the inputs and outputs flowing through a system or an application in order to recreate that system), decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to discover, within any Services, the source code, data representations or underlying algorithms, processes, methods, and any other portion of such Services.
H. A printed version of these Terms and of any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form.
