WHATIF F&I USA, LLC


TERMS OF USE
Please read the following Terms of Use (these “Terms”) carefully before using the WhatIF F&I USA, LLC (“WhatIF Foods”, “we,” “our,” or “us”) website, located at www.whatif-foods.com purchasing any WhatIF Foods product (the “Product/s”) or participating in any online features, services and/or programs offered by us, including our website (collectively, the “Web Properties”). These Terms apply to all of our Web Properties and Products.

These Terms do not apply to any other web page operated and/or owned by anyone other than WhatIF Foods and its affiliates, including, but not limited to, any website, mobile application, social media site, or other material. When visiting these third party websites and other properties, you should refer to the terms and conditions in effect for that website or property.

PLEASE REVIEW THE TERMS CAREFULLY. THESE TERMS CONTAIN A MANDATORY ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION/JURY TRIAL WAIVER PROVISION IN SECTION 18, WHICH REQUIRES THAT DISPUTES BE RESOLVED BY FINAL AND BINDING ARBITRATION ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, NOT ON A CLASS-WIDE OR CONSOLIDATED BASIS OR BY A JURY TRIAL.

These Terms include important information about your legal rights, remedies, and obligations, including various limitations and exclusions, and provisions that govern the procedure, jurisdiction and venue of any disputes. By accessing or using the Web Properties, you are entering into a legal contract with us regarding your use of the Web Properties. You agree to be bound by these Terms and all additional terms incorporated by reference. If you do not agree to any portion of these Terms, you should not access or otherwise use the Web Properties.

1. Convenience and Information Only. Subject to these Terms, we hereby grant you a non-transferable, non-exclusive, limited license to use and access the Web Properties for your non-commercial use. The Web Properties are provided to you as a convenience and for your information only. By merely providing you access to and use of the Web Properties, we do not warrant or represent that: (a) any statement, documents, images, graphics, logos, designs, audio, video, or any other information provided from or on the Web Properties (collectively, the “Content”) is accurate or complete; (b) the Content is up-to-date or current; (c) we have any obligation to update any Content; (d) the Content is free from technical inaccuracies or programming or typographical errors; (e) the Content is free from changes made by a third party; (f) your access to the Web Properties will be free from interruptions, errors, computer viruses or other harmful components; and/or (g) any information obtained in response to comments or questions asked through the Web Properties is or will be accurate or complete.

5. User Account and Security. To access certain features of the Web Properties, we may require that you sign up using your email address and a password to create a user account (“User Account”). We use reasonable precautions to protect the privacy of your username, password, and User Account information. However, you are ultimately responsible for protecting your username, password, and User Account information from disclosure to third-parties, and you are not permitted to circumvent the use of required encryption technologies, if any. While we may provide certain encryption technologies and use other reasonable precautions to protect your confidential information, we do not and cannot guarantee or warrant that information transmitted through the Internet is secure, or that such transmissions are free from delay, interruption, interception or error.

You acknowledge that, in using the Web Properties and accessing the Content and User Content (as defined herein), you may encounter material that you deem to be disturbing, offensive or objectionable.

YOU EXPRESSLY AGREE THAT YOUR USE OF THE WEB PROPERTIES IS AT YOUR SOLE RISK.

WhatIF Foods reserves the right, at its own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, and in that case, you agree to cooperate with our defense of that claim.

(c) Dietary Preferences and Restrictions. The Content on the Web Properties may contain dietary advice and recommendations, and the Products delivered by us contain various food ingredients. You should always consult with your physician or other healthcare professional before adopting any advice or trying new foods, whether offered through the Web Properties or otherwise. We do not guarantee the accuracy of any nutritional information provided by WhatIF Foods. WhatIF Foods will not be responsible for any loss or damage resulting from your reliance on nutritional information, nor for ensuring that whatever foods you purchase, prepare or consume are in accordance with your respective dietary needs, restrictions or preferences. The major U.S. allergens as determined by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (milk, wheat, eggs, soybeans, fish, shellfish, peanuts and tree nuts) may be stored, portioned and packed in some of our facilities. Although we take precautions to limit the potential for cross-contamination, cross-contamination may occur between food products, allowing products purchased through the Web Properties to contain some or all of those allergens. Our products may also include other ingredients that you are allergic to. You should always check the ingredients associated with any products that you receive from WhatIF Foods to avoid potential allergic reactions or adverse health events. If you have or suspect that you have an allergic reaction or other adverse health event, promptly contact your healthcare provider.

(d) Verify Data. You are responsible for establishing such procedures as you deem appropriate to verify the accuracy of data that you transmit using the Web Properties, and we will have no obligation to verify the accuracy of that data. While we reserve the right to review any and all content you submit, including User Content made available through the Web Properties, you will remain responsible for such content. Your use of the Web Properties is subject to the additional disclaimers and caveats that may appear throughout the Web Properties.

9. Limitation of Liability. IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR AFFILIATES, OR ANY OF OUR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, AGENTS OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVES (INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY, THE “WHATIF FOODS PARTIES”), BE LIABLE FOR ANY DIRECT, INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, PUNITIVE, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES OF ANY KIND ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF PRODUCTS OR THE WEB PROPERTIES, THE CONTENT AND/OR THE USER CONTENT PROVIDED IN CONNECTION WITH PRODUCTS OR THE WEB PROPERTIES, OR FOR ANY OTHER CLAIM RELATED IN ANY WAY TO YOUR USE OF PRODUCTS OR THE WEB PROPERTIES, THE CONTENT AND/OR THE USER CONTENT PROVIDED ON OR THROUGH THE WEB PROPERTIES.

WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR (A) INACCURACIES OR ERRORS IN OR OMISSIONS FROM THE CONTENT OR USER CONTENT; (B) DELAYS, ERRORS, OR INTERRUPTIONS IN THE TRANSMISSION OR DELIVERY OF THE CONTENT OR USER CONTENT; OR (C) LOSS OR DAMAGE ARISING THEREFROM OR OCCASIONED THEREBY, OR BY ANY REASON OF NONPERFORMANCE. REMEDIES UNDER THESE TERMS ARE EXCLUSIVE AND ARE LIMITED TO THOSE EXPRESSLY PROVIDED FOR IN THESE TERMS. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, OUR ENTIRE LIABILITY SHALL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU FOR THE PRODUCTS AND SERVICES YOU RECEIVE USING THE WEB PROPERTIES AND THE CONTENT. BECAUSE SOME STATES AND JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, IN SUCH STATES OR JURISDICTIONS, OUR LIABILITY WILL BE LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW. THESE TERMS GIVE YOU SPECIFIC LEGAL RIGHTS. YOU MAY ALSO HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT MAY VARY FROM ONE STATE OR JURISDICTION TO ANOTHER.

10. Release.


To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you release WhatIF Foods and the other WhatIF Foods Parties from responsibility, liability, claims, demands and/or damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown (including, but not limited to, claims of negligence), arising out of or related to disputes between users and the acts or omissions of third parties. If you are a consumer who resides in California, you hereby waive your rights under California Civil Code § 1542, which provides: “A general release does not extend to claims that the creditor or releasing party does not know or suspect to exist in his or her favor at the time of executing the release that, if known by him or her, would have materially affected his or her settlement with the debtor or released party.”

11. Terms of Sale.


Please see our Shipping Policy relating to our products and services, including the purchase of any products or subscriptions offered by us, may be subject to payments now or in the future (the “Paid Services). Please note that any additional payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for a Paid Service are deemed part of these Terms.
We reserve the right to change the prices and available Paid Services at any time. Quantities of some products may be limited, and stock cannot always be guaranteed. Products offered for sale by us are for sale only in the United States and all prices are quoted in U.S. dollars. We may occasionally make errors in the stated prices, and we reserve the right to correct errors (whether by changing information on the Website or by informing you of the error and giving you an opportunity to cancel your order) or to update Paid Services information at any time without notice.
You may place an order for Paid Services at any time (subject to any planned or unplanned downtime). You may check and correct any input errors in your order up until the point at which you submit your order to us by clicking the “Purchase” button on the checkout page. An order submitted by you constitutes a legally binding offer given by you to us to purchase the Paid Services specified in that order, subject to these Terms, at the price and on the terms stated when you sign up or place your order. All orders are subject to acceptance by us, and we reserve the right to refuse or limit any orders or limit any quantities. We will not be liable if a product is unavailable or if shipment is delayed. All orders are non-cancelable; we may grant or deny cancellation requests in our sole and absolute discretion. We reserve the right to provide substantially similar products to fulfil your order.
Your order will not be considered accepted until we have received payment of the purchase price of your order. We may send an acknowledgment of our receipt of your order to the email address you provide, after your payment for the order has been processed, so that you may print the information for your records. Unless stated at the time you place your order, title and risk of loss pass to you upon delivery to the common carrier for shipment, provided full payment of all sums due in respect of the product(s), including any delivery charges, has been received. By purchasing products on the Web Properties for shipment, you are asking us to engage a common carrier to deliver your order. In doing so, we are providing a service to and acting on behalf of you. We reserve the right to choose any and all procedures, packaging and the common carrier of sold products. We may not be able to have your order shipped to a post office box, to certain addresses or on certain days. We reserve the right to ship your order in multiple boxes or shipments.
Our products and services, including, without limitation, our Paid Services, are for your personal, non-commercial use, and once delivered to you may not be resold, redistributed, exported or used for any other commercial purpose. The rights you have under these Terms are personal to you and are non-transferable.

12. Payment.

Products can be purchased a la carte, or you may purchase a subscription through the Web Properties. We may use a third party service provider to process any payments. When you make a payment, we will transfer you to a secure network provided by our third party processor through which all transactions are processed. We do not retain any of your credit card or other payment information. You agree to promptly update your User Account and other information, including your email address and payment method details, so that we (and our third party service provider) can complete your transactions and contact you as needed in connection with your transactions.

(c) Refunds and Credits. If you are dissatisfied with your product and/or something is missing from your package, please contact us at happytohelp@whatif-foods.com and we may, in our sole discretion, issue a credit and/or refund to your User Account.

We may provide hyperlinks to other websites maintained by third parties, like Facebook and Instagram, or we may provide third party content on the Web Properties that we think will be relevant to our users (collectively, “Third Party Content”) by framing or other methods. In addition, the Web Properties may include certain applications, features, programs and services provided by third parties (collectively, “Third Party Applications”). We do not monitor Third Party Content or Third Party Applications and can make no guarantee as to the accuracy or completeness of such Third Party Content or Third Party Applications. The links to third party websites, any Third Party Content, and any Third Party Applications are provided for your convenience and information only. The content on any linked website or in any Third Party Application is not under our control and we are not responsible for the content of linked websites and/or Third Party Applications, including any further links contained in a third party website. We make no representation or warranty in connection with any Third Party Content or Third Party Application, which at all times and in each instance is provided “as is.” If you decide to access any of the third party websites linked to the Web Properties, any Third Party Content, and/or any Third Party Application, you do so entirely at your own risk. If a third party links or refers to the Web Properties, it is not necessarily an indication of an endorsement, authorization, sponsorship, affiliation, joint venture, or partnership by or with us. In most cases, we are not even aware that a third party has linked to or refers to the Web Properties. We are not liable for any harm or damages related to the purchase or use of goods, services, resources, content, or any other transactions made in connection with any third party websites. Please review carefully the third party's policies and practices and make sure you understand them before you engage in any transaction. Complaints, claims, concerns, or questions regarding third-party products should be directed to the third-party.

14. Intellectual Property. The Content of the Web Properties is intellectual property owned, controlled and/or licensed by us and/or our affiliates, or intellectual property that we are legally permitted to access and use. All applicable intellectual property laws, including copyright laws, protect our rights in and to the Content.

15. Interactive Services and User Content Policy.

(a) We offer certain features of the Web Properties designed to facilitate interaction between you, WhatIF Foods and other users of the Web Properties, including, but not limited to, the comment sections located in designated areas of the Web Properties (collectively, the “Interactive Services”). You agree to use the Interactive Services in full compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. You shall be solely responsible for your comments, opinions, statements, feedback, suggestions, messages, comments, ideas, notes, and other content that you (i) you submit or post on the Web Properties; or (ii) have posted or uploaded to your social media accounts, including but not limited to Instagram, Twitter, Facebook, Snapchat, and Pinterest, which are tagged with @whatiffoods or any other WhatIF Foods related or promoted hashtag or properties (collectively, “User Content”). We do not claim ownership in your User Content. However, by submitting any User Content in any form to WhatIF Foods, in addition to other provisions of these Terms, you automatically grant WhatIF Foods, its affiliates, successors and assigns, a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, worldwide, non-exclusive, sublicensable and assignable right and license to use, copy, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, edit, translate, create derivative works from, transmit, distribute, publicly display and publicly perform such User Content for the purpose of displaying and promoting such User Content on any website or other Web Properties owned or operated by, and in any related marketing materials produced by, WhatIF Foods and/or its affiliates, successors and assigns without further notice to you, or consent from you, and without any requirement to pay anything to you or anyone else. You will not have or obtain any rights in or to any form, media, or technology incorporating any of your User Content. You also grant to WhatIF Foods and its affiliates, successors and assigns the exclusive right to incorporate your User Content into other works in any form, medium or technology, whether now known or later developed, for the full term of any copyrights, trademarks and other intellectual and proprietary rights (collectively, “Rights”) that may exist in that User Content. By submitting or posting User Content on the Web Properties, on your social media accounts or through any tools or applications we provide for posting or sharing your User Content with us, you also represent and warrant to WhatIF Foods that either you own all Rights in your User Content or all third party holders of Rights in your User Content have validly and irrevocably granted to you the right to grant the rights and licenses set forth above. You further acknowledge that WhatIF Foods and its affiliates, successors and assigns will be entitled to unrestricted use of the User Content for any purpose whatsoever, commercial or otherwise.

(b) Please remember that, even if we review your User Content, you will be solely responsible for your User Content and the consequences of posting or publishing it. We do not endorse any User Content or any opinion, recommendation, or advice expressed on or through the Web Properties, and we expressly disclaim any and all liability in connection with User Content. You acknowledge that WhatIF Foods, our site moderators and our agents reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to refuse, move, and/or remove User Content available on or through the Web Properties that, in our judgment, does not comply with these Terms and any other rules of user conduct applicable to our Web Properties, or is otherwise harmful, objectionable, or inaccurate. We are not responsible for any failure or delay in removing such User Content. You represent and warrant that neither your User Content nor your uploading, publishing or otherwise making available your User Content nor WhatIF Foods’s use of your User Content as permitted herein will infringe, misappropriate or violate a third party’s intellectual property or proprietary rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation. You agree that you will not provide any User Content that is defamatory, libelous, hateful, violent, obscene, pornographic, invasive of another’s privacy, infringing of another’s intellectual property rights, unlawful, or otherwise offensive, as determined by WhatIF Foods in its sole discretion.

16. Termination of Service. We may suspend or terminate your right to access portions of the Web Properties, including your User Account, at any time, without notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms and/or is harmful to other users of the Web Properties, to us, to our partners, to the contributors, to the business of our Internet service provider, or to other information providers, or as we otherwise deem appropriate, in our sole discretion.

17. Additional Remedies. You acknowledge that your conduct that is inconsistent with these Terms may cause us irreparable damage for which remedies other than monetary relief may be inadequate. In such instances, you agree that we may seek injunctive or other equitable relief to restrain such conduct without the necessity of proving actual harm or posting a bond.

18. Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration. Please read the following section carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with WhatIF Foods and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us, unless you opt out of arbitration by following the instructions set forth below. No class or representative actions or arbitrations are allowed under this arbitration agreement. In addition, arbitration precludes you from suing in court or having a jury trial.

(a) No Representative Actions. You and WhatIF Foods agree that any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services is personal to you and WhatIF Foods and that any dispute will be resolved solely through individual action, and will not be brought as a class arbitration, class action or any other type of representative proceeding.

(b) Arbitration of Disputes. Except for small claims disputes in which you or WhatIF Foods seeks to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes in which you or WhatIF Foods seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, you and WhatIF Foods waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the Web Properties resolved in court. Instead, for any dispute or claim that you have against WhatIF Foods or relating in any way to the Web Properties, you agree to first contact WhatIF Foods and attempt to resolve the claim informally by sending a written notice of your claim (“Notice”) to WhatIF Foods by email at happytohelp@whatif-foods.com. The Notice must (i) include your name, residence address, email address, and telephone number; (ii) describe the nature and basis of the claim; and (iii) set forth the specific relief sought. Our notice to you will be similar in form to that described above. If you and WhatIF Foods cannot reach an agreement to resolve the claim within thirty (30) days after such Notice is received, then either party may submit the dispute to binding arbitration administered by JAMS or, under the limited circumstances set forth above, in court. All disputes submitted to JAMS will be resolved through confidential, binding arbitration before one arbitrator. Arbitration proceedings will be held in Los Angeles, California or may be conducted telephonically or via video conference for disputes alleging damages less than $1,000, in accordance with the JAMS Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“JAMS Rules”). The most recent version of the JAMS Rules is available on the JAMS website and is hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the JAMS Rules or waive your opportunity to read the JAMS Rules and waive any claim that the JAMS Rules are unfair or should not apply for any reason.


You and WhatIF Foods agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 18 will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (the “FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the JAMS Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court, including the power to determine the question of arbitrability. The arbitrator may conduct only an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual.

The arbitrator, WhatIF Foods, and you will maintain the confidentiality of any arbitration proceedings, judgments and awards, including, but not limited to, all information gathered, prepared and presented for purposes of the arbitration or related to the dispute(s) therein. The arbitrator will have the authority to make appropriate rulings to safeguard confidentiality, unless the law provides to the contrary. The duty of confidentiality does not apply to the extent that disclosure is necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy or in connection with a judicial challenge to an arbitration award or its enforcement, or to the extent that disclosure is otherwise required by law or judicial decision.

Both parties will be responsible for their respective JAMS fees and costs. You and WhatIF Foods agree that the state or federal courts of the State of California and the United States sitting in Los Angeles, California have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.

Any claim arising out of or related to these Terms or our Services must be filed within one (1) year after such claim arose; otherwise, the claim is permanently barred, which means that you and WhatIF Foods will not have the right to assert the claim.

You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within thirty (30) days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Section 18 by emailing us at happytohelp@whatif-foods.com. In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and address and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve disputes in accordance with Section 19.

If any portion of this Section 18 is found to be unenforceable or unlawful for any reason, (a) the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall be severed from these Terms; (b) severance of the unenforceable or unlawful provision shall have no impact whatsoever on the remainder of this Section 18 or the parties’ ability to compel arbitration of any remaining claims on an individual basis pursuant to this Section 18; and (c) to the extent that any claims must therefore proceed on a class, collective, consolidated, or representative basis, such claims must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration, and the parties agree that litigation of those claims shall be stayed pending the outcome of any individual claims in arbitration. Further, if any part of this Section 18 is found to prohibit an individual claim seeking public injunctive relief, that provision will have no effect to the extent such relief is allowed to be sought out of arbitration, and the remainder of this Section 18 will be enforceable.

19. Governing Law and Venue


Any dispute arising from these Terms and your use of the Services will be governed by and construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of California, except to the extent pre-empted by U.S. federal law, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of California or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. Any dispute between the parties that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved in the state or federal courts of California and the United States, respectively, sitting in Los Angeles, California. Both you and WhatIF Foods consent to venue and personal jurisdiction there. We both agree to waive our right to a jury trial.
