The Gourmet Animal — Terms & Conditions

Last updated: July 16, 2026

1. Who We Are

The Gourmet Animal is operated by The Gourmet Animal, LLC, a California limited liability company ("The Gourmet Animal," "we," "us," or "our"). Our principal place of business is 1325 E El Segundo Blvd, Suite D, El Segundo, CA 90245. These Terms and Conditions, together with any documents expressly incorporated by reference (collectively, these "Terms"), govern your access to and use of thegourmetanimal.com (the "Site") and your purchase of any subscription, meal, product, or service made available through the Site (collectively, the "Service").

Please review these Terms carefully, as they contain important information about your rights and obligations, and conditions, limitations, and exclusions that may apply to you. By placing an order, creating an account, or otherwise using the Site, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, you may not order, receive, or use the Service or access the Site.

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason at any time, subject to applicable law. Questions about these Terms can be sent to support@thegourmetanimal.com.

Accessibility. If you are having trouble accessing the Site, please contact us at support@thegourmetanimal.com and we will work with you to provide the information or service you need.

2. Privacy

Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and disclose your personal information. Our Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference. By using the Service, you acknowledge that you have reviewed the Privacy Policy.

We use cookies and similar technologies to operate and improve the Site. By using the Site, you consent to our use of cookies as described in the Privacy Policy.

3. Eligibility and Your Account

3.1 Age and authority

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Service. By subscribing or placing an order, you represent and warrant that you meet these requirements, that all information you provide — including delivery address, payment method, and contact details — is accurate and current, and that nothing about your agreement to these Terms will place you in breach of any other agreement or obligation.

3.2 Your account

You may be required to create an account to use certain features of the Service. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account, subject to applicable law. You may not impersonate another person, create an account on behalf of anyone other than yourself, or provide false information. Notify us promptly at support@thegourmetanimal.com if you believe your account or payment information has been used without authorization.

We may suspend or terminate accounts for suspected fraud, abuse, unauthorized resale, nonpayment, or other violations of these Terms.

4. Orders and Subscription Terms

4.1 Subscription and recurring charges

The Service is offered as a recurring weekly subscription. By enrolling, you expressly authorize The Gourmet Animal to automatically charge your designated payment method on a recurring basis for your subscription, add-ons, applicable delivery fees, and applicable taxes until you cancel, pause, or skip in accordance with Section 5.

4.2 Weekly renewal and billing cutoff

Once you place your first order, your subscription automatically renews each week. Orders for the upcoming delivery week are finalized and charged every Tuesday at 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time for the following Sunday's delivery. Any change to your plan, delivery, skip, pause, or cancellation must be submitted before that cutoff to take effect for the upcoming order; changes submitted after the cutoff will apply starting the following week.

4.3 Plan details

Your current meal selections, add-ons, delivery schedule, and pricing will be shown at checkout and/or in your account. You may change your plan (meal count, delivery day, add-ons) at any time before the applicable Tuesday 6:00 p.m. cutoff through your account portal.

4.4 Availability and substitutions

All Service offerings are subject to availability. We reserve the right to limit quantities, reject all or part of an order, discontinue specific meals or plans, and substitute ingredients or entire meals without prior notice, particularly where required by the perishable nature of ingredients or supply conditions beyond our control. If you are not satisfied with a substitution, contact us at support@thegourmetanimal.com.

4.5 Welcome Offer

New customers may be offered a limited-time introductory discount ("Welcome Offer") on their first two (2) boxes — currently 10% off Box 1 and 15% off Box 2, as displayed at checkout. The Welcome Offer:

• is available to new customers only, one per household and one per delivery address;

• applies automatically at checkout, with no code required;

• does not create any obligation to purchase a minimum number of boxes — you may skip, pause, or cancel at any time, including before your second box, as described in Section 5; and

• ends automatically starting with your third box, after which your subscription renews at the then-current standard price for your plan, as shown at checkout and in your account, until you cancel, pause, or skip.

We may modify or discontinue the Welcome Offer, or run different introductory offers, at any time; the terms in effect at the time of your order will govern that order. Attempting to obtain multiple Welcome Offers through fraud, multiple accounts, or false information is prohibited under Section 13.

4.6 Other promotions and discount codes

Only one promotion or discount code may be used per order unless otherwise stated. Promotional and seasonal offers may carry their own specific terms, conditions, and restrictions, which we reserve the right to create, amend, or discontinue at our discretion. Discount codes and store credit have no cash value and are non-transferable unless expressly stated otherwise.

4.7 Price changes

If we change the recurring fee for your existing subscription, we will provide clear notice of the new fee and instructions for cancellation not fewer than seven (7) days and not more than thirty (30) days before the change takes effect, or within any other period required by applicable law. Continuing your subscription after the effective date of a price change confirms your acceptance of the new price, unless you cancel beforehand in accordance with Section 5.

5. Cancellation, Pause, and Skip

5.1 Cancel anytime online, in one click

You may terminate the automatic renewal of your subscription at any time through your online account. You may be required to log in or authenticate your account before cancelling. Consistent with California law governing automatic renewal offers, we will not require you to speak with a representative or engage with a retention offer before you are able to complete cancellation, and any retention offer we present will be accompanied by an equally clear and immediate option to cancel.

To cancel:

1. Log in to your account at account.thegourmetanimal.com.

2. Select Manage Subscription.

3. Select Cancel Subscription.

4. Confirm cancellation.

Your cancellation will be effective immediately for all future billing cycles, provided it is submitted before the Tuesday 6:00 p.m. Pacific Time cutoff for your next scheduled order. Cancellation immediately terminates future automatic renewals but does not cancel an individual order that was already finalized and charged before we received your cancellation request. Orders finalized at the Tuesday 6:00 p.m. cutoff are subject to Section 8.

5.2 Alternative cancellation method

You may also request cancellation by emailing support@thegourmetanimal.com. We may ask for information reasonably necessary to verify account ownership before completing an email cancellation request.

5.3 Pausing and skipping

Pausing or skipping a delivery is not the same as cancelling. A paused or skipped subscription will automatically resume billing and delivery on the schedule you select, or on the date you specify, unless you separately cancel.

5.4 Confirmation

After you cancel, pause, or skip, we will send confirmation to the email address on file. Please retain this confirmation as your record of the transaction.

6. Pricing, Billing, and Payment

6.1 Authorization to charge

By providing a payment method, you represent that you are authorized to use it and you authorize us (or our third-party payment processor) to charge that payment method for the total amount of each order, including your subscription price, add-ons, delivery fees, and applicable taxes, until you cancel. You acknowledge that the amount billed may vary due to promotional offers, plan changes you make, or changes in applicable taxes or fees, and you authorize us to charge the corresponding amount.

6.2 Keeping your information current

You agree to provide current, complete, and accurate account and payment information, and to promptly update it — including your email address, delivery address, and payment details — so that we can complete your transactions and contact you as needed.

6.3 Failed payments

If a payment fails, we may retry the charge, pause your subscription, suspend future orders, or contact you to update your payment method. Repeated payment failures may result in automatic pause or cancellation of your subscription. You remain responsible for any uncollected amounts owed.

6.4 Chargebacks and payment disputes

If you believe you were charged in error, please contact us first at support@thegourmetanimal.com so we can investigate and resolve the issue directly. We reserve the right to suspend your account or future deliveries if you initiate a chargeback for a charge that was valid under these Terms and the matter is not otherwise resolved.

6.5 Taxes

Prices shown may not include applicable sales tax. Where required by law, sales tax will be calculated and added at checkout based on the items purchased and your delivery location.

7. Delivery and Shipping

7.1 Delivery area

We currently deliver within our published local service area, as shown at checkout and on the Site. Delivery areas may change at any time; if your address falls outside our current local delivery area, we will notify you and your order will not be processed unless it qualifies as a Shipped Order under Section 7.6.

7.2 Delivery windows and instructions

Delivery days and estimated windows are shown in your account and may vary by location, traffic, weather, and other operational factors. We ask that you provide complete and accurate delivery instructions, including gate codes, building access instructions, and any special drop-off preferences. We are not responsible for delays or failed deliveries caused by circumstances outside our reasonable control, including incorrect address information or missing access instructions.

7.3 Unattended delivery and risk of loss

You authorize us and our delivery providers to leave your order unattended at the delivery address or location you specify, including at a front door, gate, lobby, or other location identified in your delivery instructions. Delivery is deemed complete, and risk of loss for the order passes to you, at the time the order is delivered to the address or location you specified — including any unattended drop-off you have authorized. Any individual at the delivery address who accepts the delivery is presumed authorized to receive it unless you have stated otherwise in your delivery instructions; deliveries accepted by such an alternative receiver are subject to these Terms as if you had personally accepted them.

7.4 Missed or delayed retrieval

You are responsible for promptly retrieving and refrigerating perishable items after delivery. Our meals are packaged with insulated materials and are typically safe at ambient temperature for a limited period, but you should plan for prompt refrigeration based on your schedule and local conditions. If food is left unrefrigerated for an extended period after delivery, we are not responsible for resulting spoilage. See our food safety guidance for storage instructions.

7.5 Weather, traffic, and other delays

Our delivery partners work to deliver on schedule, but delays can occur due to weather, traffic, or other factors outside anyone's control. In the event of severe weather or similar disruption, we may reschedule or, where feasible, extend or credit an affected delivery; we are not responsible for delays caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control, except as provided under our satisfaction guarantee in Section 8.

7.6 Shipped orders (outside Los Angeles)

We may offer shipping of select products to certain California destinations outside our local Los Angeles delivery area ("Shipped Orders"), as identified by ZIP code or destination at checkout. Shipped Orders are fulfilled using an independent third-party carrier and are subject to the following additional terms.

Eligible destinations. Shipped Orders are available only to the California ZIP codes and destinations we designate at checkout from time to time. We may add, remove, or restrict eligible ZIP codes or destinations at any time without notice, including where cold-chain integrity, carrier coverage, or transit time cannot be reasonably assured.

Delivery estimate, not a guarantee of carrier performance. We package Shipped Orders with cold-chain materials designed to keep meals at a safe temperature for approximately 24–48 hours from the time of pickup by the carrier, and we target delivery within that window. However, once your order is tendered to a third-party carrier, transit time and handling are outside our control. We are not responsible for delays, misdelivery, mishandling, temperature excursions, or damage caused by the carrier, including delays due to weather, carrier network disruptions, incorrect or incomplete address information, or failure to promptly retrieve the package upon delivery.

Risk of loss. For Shipped Orders, delivery is complete and risk of loss passes to you when the carrier delivers the package to the address you provided, consistent with Section 7.3.

Your responsibility upon delivery. You are responsible for tracking your Shipped Order and retrieving it promptly upon delivery. Cold-chain packaging is designed to maintain safe temperatures for the estimated transit window, not indefinitely — if you will not be available to receive a Shipped Order within that window, please arrange for prompt pickup, refrigeration, or an alternative delivery instruction. If a Shipped Order is delayed beyond the estimated cold-chain window due to carrier delay or your unavailability, do not consume the meals if they show any sign of temperature compromise, damaged packaging, or spoilage; contact us promptly under Section 8.

Reporting carrier-related issues. If a Shipped Order arrives visibly compromised, significantly delayed beyond the estimated delivery window, or lost in transit, contact us at support@thegourmetanimal.com within 24 hours of the delivery estimate, with photographs and tracking information when available. Depending on the circumstances, we may offer a replacement, account credit, or refund at our discretion, consistent with Section 8. We are not responsible for spoilage or loss caused solely by carrier delay or mishandling once the order has been tendered to the carrier, except as required by law or under our satisfaction guarantee in Section 8.1.

8. Our Guarantee, Refunds, and Credits

8.1 Satisfaction guarantee

If you are not completely satisfied with your meals, contact us at support@thegourmetanimal.com within three (3) days of delivery, and we will work with you on a replacement, account credit, or refund, at our discretion, consistent with our published guarantee and applicable law.

8.2 No refunds for late cancellation

Because your subscription is billed for the upcoming week's order at the Tuesday 6:00 p.m. cutoff, orders already charged and in preparation or transit at the time of a cancellation request are generally not eligible for a refund, except as required by law or under Section 8.1.

8.3 Quality and order issues

Please contact us within 24 hours of delivery regarding food that arrived damaged, compromised, or at an unsafe temperature, and within 48 hours regarding missing or incorrect items. Please include photographs when reasonably available. Depending on the circumstances, we may provide a replacement, account credit, or refund. Nothing in this Section limits any rights or remedies available to you under applicable law.

8.4 Taste preferences

Because taste is subjective and our menus rotate weekly, we do not guarantee that every customer will enjoy every dish. We may offer discretionary credit for a quality concern, but we do not ordinarily issue refunds solely because a customer did not personally enjoy a dish.

8.5 How refunds and credits are applied

If a refund is issued, it may take several business days to appear, depending on your bank or card issuer. If a credit is issued, it will be applied to a future order or your account balance, as we determine is appropriate for the circumstances.

9. Food Safety, Allergens, and Nutrition

Meals are prepared in a facility that handles milk, eggs, fish, shellfish, tree nuts, peanuts, wheat, soy, sesame, and other common allergens. Cross-contact may occur. We do not operate an allergen-free facility and do not guarantee that any meal is free of trace allergens. We generally cannot accommodate individualized allergen substitutions or ingredient-removal requests. Customers with severe or life-threatening food allergies should not order or consume our meals.

You are responsible for reviewing the ingredient and allergen information published with each weekly menu, as recipes and ingredients may change from week to week.

We want you to be healthy, but we are not doctors, and nutrition information provided with our meals is a reasonable estimate only — not medical or dietary advice. We do not claim that any meal or plan will diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or health condition, and our statements regarding wellness, nutrition, or metabolic health should not substitute for consulting a physician or other qualified health professional. If you have specific health conditions, allergies, or dietary needs, consult your doctor before starting or changing any meal plan. If you believe you are experiencing a medical emergency or allergic reaction, contact your doctor or call 911 immediately.

Do not consume meals if packaging is damaged or opened, if the food appears compromised, or if you reasonably believe it was not maintained at a safe temperature. Contact us promptly under Section 8.

10. Intellectual Property

All content on the Site — including text, graphics, logos, photographs, menus, branding, videos, and recipes (collectively, the "Content") — is owned by or licensed to The Gourmet Animal and is protected by U.S. and international copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to view and print pages from the Site for your own personal, non-commercial use.

You agree not to: republish, sell, rent, sublicense, or redistribute Content; reproduce or duplicate Content outside of personal use; use data-mining tools, bots, or scrapers to collect Content or pricing information; or frame, mirror, or otherwise present the Site in a way that misrepresents its source. All rights not expressly granted in these Terms are reserved by The Gourmet Animal.

10.1 Hyperlinking to our Site

Government agencies, search engines, and news organizations may link to our Site without prior approval, provided the link is not misleading and does not falsely imply our sponsorship or endorsement. All other organizations must request written approval by emailing support@thegourmetanimal.com before linking to the Site. We may deny any linking request in our sole discretion and may request that any existing link be removed at any time.

10.2 Copyright complaints

We respect intellectual property rights and will respond to properly submitted claims of copyright infringement in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512). If you believe material on the Site infringes your copyright, send a written notice to support@thegourmetanimal.com including: your signature; identification of the copyrighted work; identification of the allegedly infringing material and its location; your contact information; a good-faith statement that the use is unauthorized; and a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf. Knowingly misrepresenting that material is infringing may expose you to liability, including costs and attorneys' fees.

11. User Comments, Reviews, and Submissions

If you submit reviews, comments, photos, testimonials, or other content to us or through the Site (collectively, "Comments"), you represent that you own or have the necessary rights to submit that content, and that it does not infringe any third party's rights or contain unlawful, defamatory, or obscene material. You grant The Gourmet Animal a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, reproduce, edit, publish, and display your Comments — including in marketing materials — in any medium, unless you tell us otherwise in writing. We do not endorse and are not responsible for the views expressed in Comments, and we reserve the right to remove any Comment we consider inappropriate, unlawful, or in violation of these Terms.

We are not obligated to keep any unsolicited idea, suggestion, or feedback you send us confidential or to compensate you for it, and we may use such feedback without restriction.

12. Communications, Email, and Text Messaging

12.1 General communications

By creating an account or placing an order, you agree that we may send you transactional and account-related communications by email or text regarding your orders, deliveries, account, and these Terms. You may separately opt in or out of promotional marketing communications, as described below and in our Privacy Policy.

12.2 SMS/MMS marketing program

If you opt in to receive text messages from us (the "Program"), you agree to the following terms in addition to the rest of these Terms:

• Consent and nature of messages. By opting in — for example, through an online enrollment form, checkout checkbox, or keyword text — you agree to receive recurring marketing and promotional messages, as well as order and account-related messages, at the mobile number you provided, which may be sent using automated technology. Consent to receive marketing texts is never a condition of purchase.

• Message and data rates. Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies. You are responsible for any charges from your wireless carrier.

• Opt-out. You may opt out of marketing texts at any time by replying STOP, END, CANCEL, UNSUBSCRIBE, or QUIT to any message you receive. You will receive a one-time confirmation that you have been unsubscribed. Texting any other words, or verbally asking an employee to remove you, is not an effective way to opt out.

• Help. For support, text HELP to the number you received messages from, or email support@thegourmetanimal.com. Emailing us is not an effective way to opt out — opt-outs must be submitted by text as described above.

• Duty to notify us if you change your number. If you stop using the mobile number associated with your opt-in — including by cancelling your plan or transferring the number — you agree to complete the opt-out process above before doing so. If you fail to notify us and we contact a reassigned number in reliance on your prior consent, you agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from resulting claims or liability, including under the Telephone Consumer Protection Act (47 U.S.C. § 227 et seq.) or similar state or federal laws. This obligation survives cancellation of your account or the Program.

• As-is basis. The Program is offered on an "as-is" basis and may not be available in all areas at all times, or may stop working due to changes made by your wireless carrier. We are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages resulting from your carrier's network.

• Eligibility. You must be the account holder or have the account holder's permission for the mobile number you provide, have a device capable of two-way messaging, and be on a participating wireless carrier.

13. Prohibited Conduct

You agree not to:

• use the Service for any unlawful or unauthorized purpose;

• attempt to fraudulently obtain, duplicate, or abuse the Welcome Offer or any other promotion;

• resell meals or Service access purchased through the Service without our prior written consent;

• interfere with, disrupt, or attempt to circumvent the security or functioning of the Site;

• use bots, scrapers, or other automated tools to access, collect data from, or place orders through the Site without our written permission;

• submit false, misleading, or fraudulent information, or create multiple accounts to circumvent these Terms; or

• harass, threaten, defame, or engage in any unlawful or abusive conduct toward our staff, delivery partners, or other customers.

We reserve the right to investigate suspected violations and to suspend or terminate access to the Service for anyone who violates this Section.

14. Third-Party Products and Services

From time to time, your order may include promotional samples or products from third parties, or certain Service offerings may be made available through a third-party channel (for example, a delivery marketplace). We do not control, and make no representations or warranties regarding, any third-party product or channel. Any terms imposed by that third party are separate from these Terms, and your use of or reliance on third-party products or channels is at your own risk. This disclaimer does not override any warranty the third-party provider itself makes directly to you.

15. Disclaimer of Warranties

This section is an essential part of these Terms.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Service, the Site, and all meals and Content made available through them are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Site will be uninterrupted, secure, or error-free, that any defect will be corrected, or that results obtained from using the Service will meet your expectations. Nutrition and allergen information is provided as a reasonable estimate and is not a guarantee.

Nothing in this Section excludes or limits any warranty or right that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable law, including implied warranties that cannot be disclaimed under California law with respect to consumer goods.

16. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, The Gourmet Animal and our officers, managers, employees, agents, contractors, and service providers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages of any kind — including lost profits or lost data — arising out of or related to the Service, the Site, or these Terms, under any theory of liability, even if advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or related to the Service will not exceed the greater of (a) one hundred dollars ($100), or (b) the total amount you paid us for the Service in the thirty (30) days preceding the event giving rise to the claim.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, personal injury or property damage directly caused by our meals, violation of law, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited. Nothing in these Terms waives any non-waivable right or remedy, and California consumer statutory rights cannot be waived by contract.

17. Indemnification

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless The Gourmet Animal and our officers, managers, employees, agents, contractors, and service providers from and against any third-party claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses — including reasonable attorneys' fees — arising out of or related to: (a) your use of the Site or the Service; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your negligence or misconduct; or (d) your violation of any law or the rights of a third party. This obligation does not require you to indemnify us for our own fraud, gross negligence, or willful misconduct, and it survives cancellation of your account or these Terms.

18. Force Majeure

We will not be liable for any delay or failure to perform resulting from causes outside our reasonable control, including acts of God, severe weather, natural disaster, fire, flood, power or internet outages, labor disputes, supply shortages, transportation disruptions, public health emergencies, or government orders.

19. Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

Please read this section carefully. It affects your legal rights, including your right to go to court.

19.1 Informal resolution first

Most concerns can be resolved quickly by contacting us at support@thegourmetanimal.com. Before filing an arbitration demand or a lawsuit (other than a qualifying small claims action), you and The Gourmet Animal agree to first attempt in good faith to resolve any dispute through direct negotiation for at least 30 days.

19.2 Binding arbitration

If a dispute is not resolved informally, you and The Gourmet Animal agree that it will be resolved by binding, individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, rather than in court, except that either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court if it qualifies. The arbitration will take place in Los Angeles County, California, or another mutually agreed location, or may be conducted by phone or based on written submissions where permitted under AAA rules. The arbitrator's decision will be final and binding, subject only to the limited review available under the Federal Arbitration Act.

This arbitration agreement does not apply to disputes concerning the ownership, validity, or infringement of intellectual property rights, which may be brought in court.

19.3 Class action waiver

You and The Gourmet Animal agree that any arbitration or permitted court proceeding will be conducted only on an individual basis and not as a class, consolidated, or representative action. If a court or arbitrator determines this class action waiver is unenforceable as to a particular claim or remedy, that portion of the claim must be litigated in court, and the remainder remains subject to arbitration.

19.4 Right to opt out

You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to support@thegourmetanimal.com within 30 days of first becoming subject to these Terms, including your name, account email, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of arbitration. If you opt out, all other provisions of these Terms remain in effect, and disputes will be resolved in the courts identified in Section 20.

20. Governing Law and Venue

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute not subject to arbitration under Section 19, or any claim brought in small claims court, will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state or federal courts located in Los Angeles County, California.

21. Notice to California Residents

Under California Civil Code Section 1789.3, California residents are entitled to the following consumer rights notice: the provider of the Service is The Gourmet Animal, LLC, 1325 E El Segundo Blvd, Suite D, El Segundo, CA 90245. If you have a question or complaint regarding the Service, you may contact us at support@thegourmetanimal.com, or you may contact the Complaint Assistance Unit of the Division of Consumer Services of the California Department of Consumer Affairs in writing at 1625 N. Market Blvd., Suite N 112, Sacramento, California 95834, or by telephone at (800) 952-5210.

22. Account Responsibilities and Termination

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials and for activity resulting from your failure to safeguard them, subject to applicable law. These Terms remain effective until terminated by you (through cancellation of your account) or by us. We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service at any time for violation of these Terms. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including payment obligations, limitation of liability, indemnification, intellectual property terms, and dispute resolution — will survive.

23. Miscellaneous

Electronic communications. You agree to receive communications from us electronically (email, text, or notices posted on the Site), and you agree that such communications satisfy any legal requirement that they be in writing.

Assignment. You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your account without our prior written consent. We may assign or transfer these Terms without restriction, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

No third-party beneficiaries. These Terms do not confer any rights or remedies on anyone other than you and us.

Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found invalid, illegal, or unenforceable, that provision will be limited or severed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.

No waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms is not a waiver of that right or provision.

Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any other documents expressly incorporated by reference, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements on this subject.

Interpretation. Headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation. Any ambiguity in these Terms will not be construed against the drafting party.

24. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you by email or by posting a notice on the Site before the change takes effect. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms, except to the extent prohibited by law.
