3. ORDERS, PAYMENT, PRICING

3.1 Order Confirmation. Upon receiving your payment, we will email you an order confirmation describing the Meals or gift card you selected. Following checkout, all or some of your selected Meals may no longer be available. Furthermore, any delivery dates requested are not guaranteed. If any such Meals are not available, someone from our team will contact you to discuss alternative options, including but not limited to substituting such Meals for other Meals or a cancellation of the purchase of such Meals with a full refund to you.

3.2 All Payments. You agree to pay us all applicable fees and taxes in Canadian Dollars. Payment can be made by credit card, debit visa or other means that we may make available. If complete payment for your order is not received and verified by us, your order will not be processed.

You must live in a residential apartment or home, or receive permission from employer or business owner to receive shipments from a business address. You are responsible for securing such permission. Terms of delivery are as follows:

Yes Chefs' designated authorized third party courier will deliver the Meals you have purchased to the address you provide us during the checkout process. The estimated delivery time and delivery status of your order will be specified on the Website. Additionally, you may receive status updates on the delivery of your Meals from our third party couriers. We do not guarantee that the status updates made available on our Website are reliable, current or error-free. Please note that we use a third party courier to deliver the Meals and we cannot guarantee the delivery time. It is possible that your Meals will arrive before or after the estimated delivery time on our Website. Typically, deliveries take place between 8:00 am and 10:00pm ET on the delivery date. We are not responsible for any delays in delivery which are beyond our control, including but not limited to inclement weather or unforeseen delivery complications.

3.4 Refunds. If you would like a refund for your Meal, you must provide us with notice of your refund within thirty (30) days to yeschefs.gta@gmail.com.

You will be able to see any refunded amounts by logging into your account on our Website.

3.5 Changes and Pricing. We reserve the right to adjust pricing for Meals in any manner and at any time as we may determine in our sole and absolute discretion. We may, at any time, revise or change the pricing, availability, specifications, content, descriptions or features of any Meals. While we attempt to be as accurate as we can in our descriptions for the Meals, we do not warrant the descriptions of Meals are accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. We reserve the right to discontinue, modify or limit the available quantity of any Meals. We reserve the right to change prices for Meals displayed on the Services at any time, and to correct pricing errors that may inadvertently occur (and to cancel any orders in our sole discretion that were purchased with pricing errors). All such changes shall be effective immediately upon posting of such new Meal prices to the Website.

Further, we reserve the right to verify the validity of all orders and/or cancel any order if we find evidence of fraud, tampering and/or any other violation of these Terms. We may, in our sole and absolute discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household or per order with or without notice. These restrictions may include orders placed by or under the same account, the same credit card, and/or orders that use the same billing and/or shipping address. We also reserve the right, in our sole and absolute discretion, not to ship items ordered or purchased through the Website to certain addresses. In the event that we are unable to or choose not to ship an item, you will be notified accordingly and the amount of that item charged in relation to your order will be reduced accordingly.

9. ADDITIONAL PROVISIONS

9.1 Updating These Terms. We may modify these Terms from time to time in which case we will update the "Last Revised" date at the top of these Terms. If we make changes that are material, we will use reasonable efforts to attempt to notify you, such as by e-mail and/or by placing a prominent notice on the first page of the Website. However, it is your sole responsibility to review these Terms from time to time to view any such changes. The updated Terms will be effective as of the time of posting, or such later date as may be specified in the updated Terms. Your continued access to or use of the Services after the modifications have become effective will be deemed your acceptance of the modified Terms.

9.2 Termination of License and Your Account. If you breach any of the provisions of these Terms, all licenses granted by the Company will terminate automatically. Additionally, the Company may suspend, disable, or delete your Account and/or the Services (or any part of the foregoing) with or without notice, for any or no reason. If the Company deletes your Account for any suspected breach of these Terms by you, you are prohibited from re-registering for the Services under a different name. All sections which by their nature should survive the termination of these Terms, including but not limited to Section 9, shall continue in full force and effect subsequent to and notwithstanding any termination of these Terms by the Company or you. Termination will not limit any of the Company's other rights or remedies at law or in equity.

9.3 Injunctive Relief. You agree that a breach of these Terms will cause irreparable injury to the Company for which monetary damages would not be an adequate remedy and the Company shall be entitled to equitable relief in addition to any remedies it may have hereunder or at law without a bond, other security or proof of damages.

9.4 Miscellaneous. If any provision of these Terms shall be unlawful, void or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision shall be deemed severable from these Terms and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions. These Terms and the licenses granted hereunder may be assigned by the Company but may not be assigned by you without the prior express written consent of the Company. No waiver by either party of any breach or default hereunder shall be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default. The section headings used herein are for reference only and shall not be read to have any legal effect. The Services are operated by us in Canada. Those who choose to access the Services from locations outside Canada do so at their own initiative and are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws. These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms are governed by and will be construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and federal laws of Canada, without regard to conflict or choice of law provisions. Other than proceedings in small claims court if the claims qualify, remain in such court, and advance solely on an individual, non-class basis, you and the Company agree the provincial courts of Ontario will be the jurisdiction and legal venue for any court proceedings arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms. Arbitration awards may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

9.5 Entire Agreement. These Terms (together with the Privacy Policy) constitute the entire agreement governing the use of the Services. These Terms shall not be modified except by a new posting of these Terms by Yes Chefs at our sole discretion. If any part of these Terms is held to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that part shall be deemed severed and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions. Our failure to exercise or enforce any right or provision under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. You may not assign any part of these Terms or any rights or licenses granted hereunder, whether voluntarily, by operation of law, or otherwise without our prior written consent. Yes Chefs may assign these Terms for any reason without notice to you.
