Terms & Conditions
Last Updated: May 13, 2020
Overview of Terms
This Terms and Conditions document (these “Terms”) shall govern your use of the Fresh Bite 2 Go Mobile Application (the “App”), the associated website (the “Site”), and your ordering of food as a “Consumer” or the provision of food as a “Chef” (collectively, the “Services”). You must read the provisions provided in these Terms and abide by them when using the Services. Additional agreements and policies established by Fresh Bite 2 Go will be incorporated in these Terms by reference.
The App, the Site, and the Services are provided under the company, 5025205 Ontario Inc. (referred herein as “Fresh Bite 2 Go”). Fresh Bite 2 Go, under these Terms, shall also refer to affiliated companies or groups, such as Fresh Bite 2 Go’s subsidiaries, parent company, and its directors and employees.
By using the App, you represent to Fresh Bite 2 Go that you have read the whole of these Terms and have agreed to be bound by all the terms and conditions described in it. If you do not agree or consent to these Terms, we do not approve of your use of the Services. Your consent shall be validated when you click/tick the “I agree” or “I accept” button/box during registration.
Some additional terms and conditions may be available on specific programs or Services, such as promotions, events, and programs. Such additional terms and conditions will be in relation to the Services and shall prevail over these Terms if they contain conflicting provisions.
The Services Provided through the App
The App is a marketplace where Consumers and Chefs transact on food services. A Consumer can use the App to locate Chefs around him/her and place a direct order on the foods provided by such a Chef. Once the Consumer identifies the food they will like to place an order for on the Chef’s food menu, the Consumer will be required to pay the equivalent cost of the food as listed on the Chef’s food menu. Once the Consumer’s payment method has been charged, they can go ahead to the Chef’s business place – with the help of the App location option – and pick up the food they have placed an order for.
Chefs are Independent
By using the Services as a Consumer, you acknowledge and agree that the App is provided as a marketplace where you may be able to order the services of Chefs in relation to food services. You acknowledge and agree that Fresh Bite 2 Go does not provide food-related services, neither is Fresh Bite 2 Go affiliated with any Chef or their business. You further agree that any dispute, claims, liabilities, damages, or losses that may arise from your use of a Chef’s services will not be in any way construed as our responsibility. Also, we have the right but not the obligation to monitor Chefs if they are in compliance with food safety laws such as the Canadian Institute of Food Safety (“CIFS”). Both the Chefs and Consumers hereby release Fresh Bite 2 Go from any claims or disputes that may exist from the use of Chefs’ services.
Service Eligibility
To use the App and the Services, either as a Consumer or Chef, you must be able to form a contract; you must have attained the age of majority (as defined by the law of your location); you must provide accurate information during registration; you must not be in violation of any applicable law; your food services must abide by the Laws and Requirements of the CIFS by location found here. By using the App and Services, you represent and warrant to Fresh Bite 2 Go that you are eligible to use the App in as provided for under this paragraph.
Account and Registration
Fresh Bite 2 Go grants you free access to download and use the App on both the Apple and Google Play stores. However, to use the Services as a Chef or a Consumer, you will be required to register a user account and submit specific account information, such as your name, business details and pictures, government-issued ID, email address and phone number, and other information described in our Privacy Policy. You must ensure the information you submit is accurate and up- to-date, and you must update such information when it changes. The collection and use of your information are governed by our Privacy Policy – attached herein as reference. By submitting information during registration, you represent and warrant to Fresh Bite 2 Go that such information is accurate, complete, and up-to-date.
Orders and Fees (Consumer)
To order for any food available on the menu of a particular Chef as a Consumer, you must place the order through our secured payment gateway on the App. Payment for such orders will be made after you have successfully added a valid payment method from any of the accepted payment methods. Once you placed your order for the preferred food, the equivalent amount will be charged from your payment method and retained on our database. Once you have picked up your food from the Chef’s location of business, we will release your payments to the Chef.
Payments and Commission (Chef)
If you operate the App as a Chef, you understand that the payments for any food ordered through the App will be released to you immediately the Consumer receives your services. You also under that Fresh Bite 2 Go is entitled to a 25% commission on all sales made through the App. Therefore, Fresh Bite 2Go shall only release to you, 75% of the cost of a particular order made by a Consumer through the App. Payment shall be made to your submitted payment method.
Fresh Bite 2 Go reserves the right to review and update the commission percentage at any time without liability. However, commission changes shall not apply to orders that have commenced before the review in the price of the commission.
Refunds Policy
Upon the delivery and completion of the services requested under these, you will not be entitled to a refund of the fees paid. Refunds may only be granted if the Chef’s service is not as described, in which case, we will conduct a thorough review of their services.
