We reserve the right to adjust prices in our sole discretion, at any time and without notice to you; provided, however, that we will provide you with at least ten (10) days’ advance notice of any price changes with your specific Plan rate. Your acceptance of deliveries of the Products after such notice has been delivered to you will constitute your acceptance of such price changes, unless you cancel your subscription to the Service in accordance with this Agreement. All prices shown on the Site and/or in the App are in U.S. dollars. Any applicable taxes and other fees or charges are not included and are additional to any prices shown on the Site and/or in the App. Prices, taxes or other fees may vary geographically.

You also agree to pay all applicable taxes. To make an order from an Account, you must provide valid payment information (e.g. credit card, debit card, and/or a Gift Card) through the Site or App. By placing an order through your Account, you also agree and authorize (1) the payment method(s) you provide to be immediately charged for all fees and taxes applicable to your order, (2) Green Chef to automatically charge alternative payment methods associated with your account if a primary payment method is declined or no longer available, (3) Green Chef to share payment information and instructions required to complete the payment transactions between Green Chef, our payment processors, and their third-party payment service providers (e.g., credit card transaction processing, merchant settlement, and related services), and (4) no additional notice or consent is required for the foregoing authorizations.

If a payment is not successfully paid and you do not edit your payment method or cancel your purchase of a Product, you remain responsible for any uncollected amounts and authorize us to continue billing the payment method, as it may be updated. Green Chef reserves the right to collect any outstanding payment due, and may transfer the collection of your outstanding balance to a third party collection agency.
7. REPLACEMENT INGREDIENTS IN MEAL KITS AND PROMOTIONAL INCLUSIONS
Given the perishable nature of many of our ingredients, and market conditions and product supply beyond our control, we reserve the right to adjust the quantity of any ingredients in a Meal Kit, to discontinue the use of any ingredient or Product, or to substitute any ingredients or entire Meal Kits, all without notice. While we make every effort to ensure that you are provided with the very best ingredients for our Meal Kits, these switches may occasionally be required. If such a substitution is required, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you prior to shipment. If you have any issues with any substitution, or either an ingredient or a Meal Kit, please contact us at help@greenchef.com or call 888-236-7295.

Green Chef Gift Cards may be redeemed on the Site or on the App. Redemption of Gift Cards will result in the application of a credit to your account in the amount of the Gift Card balance. Any Gift Card balance will be applied toward your purchase of Offerings until the Gift Card is depleted. Gift Cards are not redeemable for cash or credit. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Gift cards with balances of under $10.00 are redeemable for cash in the States of California, Texas, Massachusetts and Colorado.

9. VOUCHERS
Green Chef may offer discount promotions, free/discounted trials, or other types of vouchers (“Vouchers”). In order to utilize the offer on the Voucher, users need to create an Account through the Site or App and input their information and the code found on the Voucher to redeem. If you purchase any Voucher, Voucher is deemed to have been sold at the time of payment for it. The discount found on the Voucher only lasts for the first week of your subscription plan, unless it specifically states otherwise on the Voucher or when you sign-up. Similarly, a Voucher may only be used once and may not be copied, reproduced, distributed, or published either directly or indirectly in any form or stored in data retrieval systems without our prior written approval. Additionally, Vouchers are only for first-time users of Green Chef, unless the Voucher states otherwise. Green Chef reserves the right to withdraw or deactivate any Voucher (other than one which has been purchased) for any reason, at any time. For the avoidance of doubt, and in accordance of the foregoing sentence, Green Chef reserves the right to withdraw or deactivate any of your outstanding referral credits or similar Vouchers in the event your referral code is posted to a third party website (excluding your own social media profile(s) or blogs), or if you otherwise violate this Agreement. Vouchers may only be redeemed through our Site or App, and not through any other website or method of communication. To use your Voucher, you will be required to enter its unique code at the online checkout and use of such code will be deemed to confirm your agreement to this Agreement and any special conditions attached to the Voucher.
Pursuant to this Agreement, at the expiration of the Voucher, you agree and acknowledge that you will be billed the standard rate for your Meal Kit on a recurring, weekly basis, unless you cancel your Plan prior to the end of the Voucher period with proper, advance notice to Green Chef in accordance with this Agreement. You may cancel your Subscription Service up to five (5) days before your first scheduled delivery that does not include the pricing found on the Voucher, pursuant to the deactivation procedures found in Section 10.3.
As a part of the verification process, Green Chef may require you to provide additional identification information. In addition, as a part of the verification process, you authorize Green Chef to charge to your credit card a $1.00 authorization charge (or such other amount identified to customer at time of verification by Green Chef), which amount will be refunded following successful authorization.
10. DELIVERY
10.1 Green Chef Delivery Week
Green Chef’s “Delivery Week” begins on Monday and runs through Sunday of the same week. The start of our Delivery Week means that new Meal Kits are available to be delivered in your Meal Box.
10.2 Rolling Basis of Meal Selection
You have the option of selecting the day you would like to receive your Meal Box, and, if your specific subscription allows for Meal Kit selection, you also have the option of selecting the specific Meal Kits you would like to receive, on a weekly basis. The day you select to receive your first Meal Box will be the default. In subsequent weeks, if you do not make a change, your Meal Box will arrive on the day you initially selected every week (unless you pause your order, pursuant to this Agreement, or there are extenuating circumstances, detailed in this Agreement). If you choose to have your delivery on another day for a specific week, the delivery day will change only for that week. Meal Kit selection and delivery day selection is on a rolling basis, and all selections “lock” five days prior to the delivery day. For example, if your subscription allows for Meal Kit selection and you receive your Meal Box on Fridays, you will have to make your selection of Meal Kits you want included in your Meal Box on Sunday by 11:59 PM Pacific Time, at least 5 days prior to your next delivery. Your credit card or other payment source will then be charged at midnight. Similarly, if you want to change the delivery day, you will have to make your selection five days prior to your new delivery day.
Please note that the specific days in which a Meal Box can be delivered varies by geographic region, and delivery on each day will not be available in all areas. If you have any questions about your area and delivery, please contact Customer Care at help@greenchef.com or call 888-236-7295.
Green Chef does not deliver to every location, so please check with our customer service team at help@greenchef.com to see if our Meal Box is available in your area. If we currently do not deliver to your area, we cannot agree to provide you with services in accordance with our Terms, and Customers will be prohibited from paying if they have a delivery ZIP code outside of the areas where Green Chef delivers Meal Boxes. But, if you would like us to deliver to an area we do not currently cover, please let us know. We are expanding the reach of our Products and Services. We recommend that you create an account, and we will use reasonable efforts to notify you when we launch in your ZIP code.
Green Chef uses reliable third-party delivery companies to deliver your Products. For customers that purchase perishable food products from us, each box is carefully packaged so its contents will stay adequately chilled (e.g., for meat and seafood, 40°F or cooler) until at least 10 pm on the scheduled day of delivery (modifications may be made to scheduled delivery dates during certain holidays). However, to maintain the highest quality and integrity of any food Products after delivery, we recommend that you immediately refrigerate the food items when you receive them. You should inspect your food packages to ensure the contents arrive in a cool, refrigerated condition. The best way to do this is to check the meat and fish with a food thermometer to ensure their internal temperatures are 40°F or below. If you receive a food Product containing meat or fish with an internal temperature above 40°F, you should contact our customer service and discard the item. PLEASE DO NOT RETURN ANY PERISHABLE FOOD PRODUCT UNLESS REQUESTED BY CUSTOMER SERVICE.
10.3 Deactivation Procedures
Please note that the ability to change an order locks five days prior to your scheduled delivery date. Therefore, if you wish to deactivate your Account and/or cancel or change an order, you must do so before the day and time listed above for your respective delivery date. For example, if you have a scheduled delivery date on Tuesday, you have until Thursday at 11:59 PM Pacific Time, five days prior to your next scheduled delivery, to cancel your subscription. If you do so after the time listed for your delivery day, you will be charged and receive your Meal Box for that week, and the cancellation will take effect for the following Delivery Week. To deactivate your Account, please call Green Chef Customer Care at 888-236-7295 or email help@greenchef.com stating that you wish to terminate your account, along with your full name and registered email address.
10.4 Pausing your Order
During any production week, you have the option of pausing your deliveries. In order to do so, log on to your account page on the Site or App, select a particular week (by clicking on the delivery day highlighted) and then click on the “Pause Week” button. You will not be charged for any week in which your order is paused. Please note that this action cannot be taken for any scheduled order which has already “Locked,” pursuant to Section 10.2. Additionally, pausing an order shall only apply to the week in which you pause, and automatic deliveries will commence the following week, unless you choose to pause the following week, subject to the details, above.
10.5 Delivery Specifics
In the case of weather which inhibits the ability to make safe deliveries, or other events beyond our control that interfere with our ability to deliver your order, we will attempt to deliver your Order as soon as reasonably possible. In some cases, delivery may occur on a date other than your scheduled delivery day. If the delivery of your Meal Box is not feasible, we will cancel your delivery for the period so affected and issue you a credit, as determined in our sole discretion or refund of a part or the whole of the purchase price for that Meal Box.

24. DISPUTE RESOLUTION & BINDING ARBITRATION
PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING ARBITRATION AGREEMENT IN THIS SECTION (“ARBITRATION AGREEMENT”) CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE CERTAIN DISPUTES AND CLAIMS WITH GREEN CHEF AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US.
24.1 Applicability of Arbitration Agreement
You agree that any dispute, claim, or request for relief relating in any way to your access or use of the Site or the App, to any products sold or distributed through the Site or the App, or to any aspect of your relationship with Green Chef, will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except (1) that you may assert claims or seek relief in small claims court if your claims qualify; and (2) you or Green Chef may seek equitable relief in court for infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights (such as trademarks, trade dress, domain names, trade secrets, copyrights, and patents). This Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all disputes or claims and requests for relief that arose or were asserted before the effective date of this Agreement or any prior version of this Agreement. This Arbitration Agreement shall apply, without limitation, to all disputes or claims and requests for relief that arose or were asserted before the effective date of this Agreement or any prior version of this Agreement.
24.2 Arbitration Rules and Forum
The Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of this Arbitration Agreement. To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your dispute or claim or request for relief to: US Legal Department, 28 Liberty Street, 9th Floor, New York, NY 10005. The arbitration will be conducted by JAMS, an established alternative dispute resolution provider. Disputes involving claims, counterclaims, or request for relief under $250,000, not inclusive of attorneys’ fees and interest, shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and procedures available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-streamlined-arbitration/; all other disputes shall be subject to JAMS’s most current version of the Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures, available at https://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. JAMS’s rules are also available at www.jamsadr.com or by calling JAMS at 800-352-5267. If JAMS is not available to arbitrate, the parties will select an alternative arbitral forum. If the arbitrator finds that you cannot afford to pay JAMS’s filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees and cannot obtain a waiver from JAMS, Green Chef will pay them for you. In addition, Green Chef will reimburse all such JAMS’s filing, administrative, hearing and/or other fees for disputes, claims, or requests for relief totaling less than $10,000 unless the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous.
You may choose to have the arbitration conducted by telephone, based on written submissions, or in person in the country where you live or at another mutually agreed location. Any judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
24.3 Authority of Arbitrator
The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to (a) determine the scope and enforceability of this Arbitration Agreement and (b) resolve any dispute related to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability or formation of this Arbitration Agreement including, but not limited to, any assertion that all or any part of this Arbitration Agreement is void or voidable. The arbitration will decide the rights and liabilities, if any, of you and Green Chef. The arbitration proceeding will not be consolidated with any other matters or joined with any other cases or parties. The arbitrator shall have the authority to grant motions dispositive of all or part of any claim. The arbitrator shall have the authority to award monetary damages and to grant any non-monetary remedy or relief available to an individual under applicable law, the arbitral forum’s rules, and the Agreement (including the Arbitration Agreement). The arbitrator shall issue a written award and statement of decision describing the essential findings and conclusions on which the award is based, including the calculation of any damages awarded. The arbitrator has the same authority to award relief on an individual basis that a judge in a court of law would have. The award of the arbitrator is final and binding upon you and us.
24.4 Waiver of Jury Trial
YOU AND GREEN CHEF HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. You and Green Chef are instead electing that all disputes, claims, or requests for relief shall be resolved by arbitration under this Arbitration Agreement, except as specified in Section 24.1 above. An arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court and must follow this Agreement as a court would. However, there is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is subject to very limited review.
24.5 Waiver of Class or Other Non-Individualized Relief
ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS, AND REQUESTS FOR RELIEF WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE, AND CLAIMS OF MORE THAN ONE CUSTOMER OR USER CANNOT BE ARBITRATED OR CONSOLIDATED WITH THOSE OF ANY OTHER CUSTOMER OR USER. If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this subsection’s limitations as to a given dispute, claim, or request for relief, then such aspect must be severed from the arbitration and brought into the State or Federal Courts located in the State of New York. All other disputes, claims, or requests for relief shall be arbitrated.
24.6 30-Day Right to Opt Out
You have the right to opt out of the provisions of this Arbitration Agreement by sending written notice of your decision to opt out to: legal@greenchef.com, within 30 days after first becoming subject to this Arbitration Agreement. Your notice must include your name and address, your Green Chef username (if any), the email address you used to set up your Green Chef account (if you have one), and an unequivocal statement that you want to opt out of this Arbitration Agreement. If you opt out of this Arbitration Agreement, all other parts of this Agreement will continue to apply to you. Opting out of this Arbitration Agreement has no effect on any other arbitration agreements that you may currently have, or may enter in the future, with us.
24.7 Severability
Except as provided in subsection 24.5, if any part or parts of this Arbitration Agreement are found under the law to be invalid or unenforceable, then such specific part or parts shall be of no force and effect and shall be severed and the remainder of the Arbitration Agreement shall continue in full force and effect.
