The Site provides the opportunity to subscribe to our monthly subscription boxes, other content, features, products, services, and promotions (collectively the "Services").  The use of the Sites, Content, and Services is subject to these Terms & Conditions (the "Terms & Conditions", or “Terms”) and our privacy policy (the "Privacy Policy"). By registering for, using, or otherwise accessing the Site, Content, and Services, you accept and agree to these Terms, as well as any additional terms or conditions that may be issued from time to time by Fikabröd. You further consent to the collection, use, and disclosure of information provided to Fikabröd as described in our Privacy Policy. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO BE BOUND BY ALL OF THESE TERMS & CONDITIONS, DO NOT USE THE SITES OR SERVICES. These Terms & Conditions constitute a legal agreement between you and Fikabrod, LLC, and shall apply to your use of the Sites and the Services even after termination. Fikabröd may issue additional terms, conditions, and rules of participation, including conditions required by various state rules and regulations. The additions of these terms, conditions, and rules may impact your experience or participation in the Services. By participating in the Services, you agree to be bound by any such additional terms, conditions, and rules issued by Fikabröd.

III. CONDITIONS OF USE OF THE SERVICES

A. Registration and User Accounts

You must register personally with Fikabröd and open an account/subscription in order for you to be able to participate in the Services. It is your responsibility to enter all mandatory information, and to ensure that all information (including shipping addresses) provided is accurate, current, and complete. The information you provide must be updated in the event that such information has changed. Fikabröd may, at its discretion, carry out verification procedures to ensure that the information is accurate and complete. If Fikabröd finds that you have provided incomplete, inaccurate, or misleading information, Fikabröd may deny you access to areas of the Sites or Services that require registration, may block or terminate your account, and may cancel your subscription. 


You agree that the sole purpose of the account you create with Fikabröd is to participate in certain parts of the Sites, as well as the Services. Fikabröd reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account/subscription if it is determined that you are misusing the Sites, Content, or Services. In such circumstances, Fikabröd may also report such activity to relevant authorities if we deem doing so appropriate.


Fikabröd reserves the right to refuse or close an account/subscription at its sole discretion, provided that any contractual obligations already made by Fikabröd will be honored to the extent required by law or equity. You may voluntarily close your account at any time after your purchase commitment(s) have been fulfilled.

B. Account Information 

As part of the registration process, you will be required to provide a valid email address, valid shipping address, and to choose a password to allow you to access password-protected areas of the Sites and Services.

You further agree that you shall only use your own email address and password to access the Services. 
By creating an account and password, you acknowledge and agree that Fikabröd is entitled and authorized to act on instruction received through the use of that account and password. Fikabröd may restrict or deny access, or block any transaction made through the use of your email address and password without prior notice if we have reason to believe your account is being used by someone other than you, but Fikabröd shall not be required to do so. Under no circumstance will Fikabröd be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with the terms outlined in this Section.

C. User Provided Content

This includes, but is not limited to, profile information, product feedback, recipes, recipe photographs, and blog comments or other forms of public communications. Fikabröd is not obligated to pre-screen User Provided Content, though it may elect to do so at its sole discretion, and may refuse, delete or undelete, or modify any User Provided Content available through the Services. Fikabröd shall have the right to remove any User Provided Content that violates the Terms & Conditions, or that is otherwise found to be objectionable or harmful in its sole discretion. While Fikabröd reserves the right to remove such User Provided Content, you acknowledge and accept that, in using the Sites and Services, you may be exposed to User Provided Content that you find objectionable or offensive. You also acknowledge and accept that you are solely responsible for your interactions with other users of the Sites and Services. You further acknowledge and agree that it is your responsibility to evaluate and bear all risks associated with the disclosure or use of any User Provided Content. Fikabröd shall not, in any way, be liable for User Provided Content that you or other users upload, post, transmit, share, or otherwise make available through the Sites or Services.


By making any User Provided Content available on or through the Services, you acknowledge and accept that you are granting Fikabröd an irrevocable, perpetual, fully sub-licensable, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use, reproduce, modify, publish, display, and distribute such User Provided Content, in whole or in part, and to incorporate such User Provided Content into other works in any medium now known or later developed.

IV. ONLINE PURCHASES AND TERMS OF SALE

A. Privacy Policy

To subscribe to any of our subscriptions, you are required to enter personal information. All of this information is subject to our Privacy Policy: www.fikabrodbox.com/privacy-policy

B. Eligibility

The Sites are for users who are 18 years of age or older. By agreeing to the Terms & Conditions, you warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract with Fikabröd and meet all of the foregoing eligibility requirements. If you do not meet all of these requirements, you must not access or use the Sites. If you are using the Sites on behalf of any entity, you further represent and warrant that you are authorized to accept these Terms & Conditions on such entity's behalf.

C. Registration

You are required to create an account in order to purchase from our Sites.

D. Subscribing

By subscribing you agree to pay your subscription fee for the goods that are delivered for the term agreed by both parties.


Any introductory discount applied on the 6-month or 12-month subscription means your first month is an introduction month. It also means you have a minimum of another 5 payments or 11 payments (respectively) due on your commitment term before you can cancel.

E. Subscription Renewal

By signing up for a Fikabröd subscription, you understand and agree you will be charged at the standard rate and that any promotional codes used as a new customer at sign-up do not transfer or apply to your renewal fee. Fikabröd do not accept any responsibility or offer refunds for ‘auto renewals’ proceeding if you have failed to cancel your subscription before your next renewal date. You understand and agree that you will be automatically billed after your current subscription of 1, 3, 6, or 12 months expires unless the subscription is ‘set to cancel’ before your final payment date in your initial commitment.


YOUR SUBSCRIPTION IS CONTINUOUS UNTIL YOU CANCEL AND, IF YOU CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP BEFORE THE END OF AN EXISTING SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD, YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THE REMAINDER OF THAT SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD.
IF YOU DO NOT CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP PRIOR TO YOUR SUBSCRIPTION RENEWAL. YOUR SUBSCRIPTION WILL AUTOMATICALLY RENEW FOR A NEW SUBSCRIPTION PERIOD OF THE SAME AMOUNT OF TIME.

F. Cancellation

We will be sad to see you go, but you can turn off your auto-renewal at any time. If you have committed to a multi-month subscription and have boxes left to receive, you will be charged for and shipped the remaining boxes. Then upon completion of your original commitment, your subscription will automatically be cancelled.


For example: If you sign up for a 12-month subscription and have paid for 8 boxes, you will be charged for and shipped another 4 boxes before your subscription finishes. This does not initiate any kind of refund if you fail to cancel before the renewal date.
Your subscription is continuous until you cancel and, if you cancel your membership before the end of an existing subscription commitment period, you will be charged for the remainder of that subscription period.


By Fikabröd stating you can cancel at any time, this directly refers to the renewal and not your commitment term.


You may only cancel after the first box if you select a month-to-month subscription. A 3-month, 6-month, or 12-month subscription is different, and you have agreed to stay for the entire subscription period. This policy protects Fikabröd from abuse of our discount systems given to new members who want to join on a new subscription. If you agree to a 3-, 6-, or 12-month subscription, you need to stay for the full commitment period. Normal month-to-month can be cancelled at any point.
Fikabröd discounts are one per household.


Fikabröd is a subscription service and by signing up, you agree it is your responsibility to cancel your own subscription by logging into your account profile. Fikabröd do not accept responsibility to cancel your account on your behalf. It is up to the customer alone to cancel the subscription. Cancellations must be completed before the next renewal date. Your subscription will renew on the 17th of the first month after your commitment period ends. (Example: If you sign up for a 6-month subscription in February, your subscription will automatically renew on August 17th.)


You must cancel your subscription 24 hours before the renewal date. IF YOU DO NOT CANCEL PRIOR TO THE RENEWAL DATE OF A CALENDAR MONTH, YOU WILL BE CHARGED FOR THAT MONTH’S SERVICE AND YOU WILL RECEIVE A BOX FROM FIKABRÖD. All cancellation requests received after the renewal date of a calendar month will apply to the following calendar month.

 

All subscriptions are non-refundable. However, if you have extenuating circumstances and want to request to cancel your subscription before the end of your subscription commitment period, please send an email with an explanation to help@fikabrodbox.com. There is a one-time cancellation fee of $54.95. Any cancellation is at the sole discretion of Fikabröd.

G. Missing Boxes

Fikabröd is not responsible for shipments returned or lost due to old, incorrect, incomplete, or invalid addresses. We are also not responsible if a box is held at a post office and the recipient never retrieves it. If a box is returned to us, a reshipping and handling fee of $10.95 will be charged to reship the package. We do not offer refunds on boxes returned to us due to invalid addresses. If you need to talk to us about a returned package, please contact us.

 

If, for no fault of your own, your box does not arrive and the tracking information does not say the package was delivered, you must notify Fikabröd via email within 30 days of shipment in order to receive a replacement. Replacements are subject to availability; however, if items are unavailable, Fikabröd will replace with items of equal or greater value, or issue a partial refund. Replacements for boxes marked delivered by the tracking information are at Fikabröd’s discretion. Requests received after 30 days may not be honored.

H. Billing & Payments

You will automatically be charged each month for your ongoing subscription. If you have committed to a subscription period lasting longer than one month, you will automatically be charged each month during that subscription period, even if you have set your subscription or membership to cancel prior to the end of that subscription period. Further, unless you cancel your subscription or membership prior to the end of your then-current subscription period, at the end of that period, your subscription will automatically be renewed for an additional subscription period of the same amount of time.

I. Shipping

Our listed prices do not include shipping fees and applicable state taxes unless otherwise stated. All orders placed on our website are subject to availability. Products will be shipped according to our Sites’ shipping terms.

J. Loss of Goods

Please track your order online with the tracking number provided and follow up with us regarding delays or failure of delivery, as necessary. All this information will be sent to you by email once you have subscribed.

K. Return / Refund Policy

All sales and subscriptions made on our Sites are considered final. If there is a problem or defect with any product delivered by Fikabröd, we will do our utmost to rectify the problem. If you receive a broken or defective item, send a photo of the shipping box and the broken item to help@fikabrodbox.com within 7 days of receipt of your Fikabröd box. We do not offer replacements without proof of damage or beyond 7 days post-delivery. Once we confirm the damaged good, we will promptly ship out a replacement.


Fikabröd does not offer refunds or returns on items in the monthly subscription boxes. The contents of the monthly boxes are a ‘surprise,’ and by subscribing, you understand that you may not ‘love’ every product received every month.


We are unable to accept returns of any ingredients or other food products.


For non-food products purchased from the Past Box Shop, they may be shipped back to Fikabröd at the customer’s expense and returned for a refund. The non-food products must be returned unopened, unused, and intact. If the products have been opened/used, we will not accept a return or offer any refund. By subscribing or ordering from Fikabröd, you agree to these terms.

L. Pricing / Errors

Product prices and product availability are subject to change without notice. We may cancel any offer and reserve the right to correct errors, including after an order has been submitted, whether or not your credit/debit card has been charged. If your credit/debit card has already been charged and your order is cancelled, Fikabröd will issue a refund to your credit/debit card account in the amount of the charge. You accept that your subscription being ‘auto-renewed’ on the date advised at sign-up is not considered an error liable for refund.

M. Order Acceptance / Confirmation

Fikabröd reserves the right at any time after receipt of your order to accept or decline your order. We reserve the right to decline sales to any party for any reason.

N. Warranty

We understand that individuals have varying dietary restrictions. However, due to the nature of our product, we cannot accommodate individual restrictions, allergies, religious dietary considerations, or any other hazards. You are responsible for deciding if the products you receive are safe and suitable for you, your family, and anyone else you may share the products with.

X. ARBITRATION CLAUSE AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER

THE FOLLOWING TERMS MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT. ACCORDINGLY, PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BEFORE CREATING AN ACCOUNT OR USING THE SERVICES.

A. Informal Dispute Resolution

Any questions, concerns, issues, or disputes you have regarding the Sites, Content, or Services can be directed to our Customer Support Department by phone at 678.819.3813, or via our website. The Customer Support Department is able to resolve most questions, concerns, issues, and disputes quickly and to our users’ satisfaction. Fikabröd will, and you agree to, use best reasonable efforts to resolve any questions, concerns, issues, or disputes by good faith negotiation through the Customer Support Department, and the satisfaction of this requirement shall be a required condition to either party initiating arbitration, or any further legal action regarding the matter in question.

B. Binding Arbitration

In the event that negotiation through the Customer Support Department, as described above, fails to yield an agreeable solution within a period of thirty (30) days from the time informal dispute resolution is initiated, then either you or Fikabröd may initiate arbitration, which shall be the sole means to resolve the claim. Such arbitration shall be binding, and shall be subject to the terms set forth below.


The binding arbitration will take place in Atlanta, Georgia. Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) in accordance with the provisions of its rules and procedures. The arbitrator shall have exclusive authority to issue a final, binding resolution of all disputes arising out of or relating to the interpretation, applicability, enforceability, or formation of these Terms & Conditions including, but not limited to any claim that these Terms are, in whole or in any part, void or voidable, or any claim that a dispute is not subject to arbitration. The arbitrator shall be authorized and empowered to grant any relief otherwise available in a court of law or equity. The arbitrator’s award shall be written, shall be binding on the parties, and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.


To the extent the filing fee for the arbitration exceeds the cost of filing a lawsuit, Fikabröd will pay the additional cost. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, Fikabröd will pay all of the actual filing and arbitrator fees for the arbitration, provided your claim does not exceed $75,000. The parties understand that, absent this mandatory provision, they would have the right to sue in court and have a jury trial. They further understand that, in some instances, the costs of arbitration could exceed the costs of litigation and the right to discovery may be more limited in arbitration than in court.

C. Class Action Waiver

In addition to the above provisions of this Section, you hereby expressly agree that any arbitration shall by conducted in your individual capacity only, and not as a class action or other form of representative action. Both you and Fikabröd hereby expressly waive any right to file a class action lawsuit or to seek relief on a class basis. Any claims that you or Fikabröd bring against each other shall only be in your or its individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member of any representative or class proceeding or lawsuit. If any arbitrator or court deems that the waiver set forth in this paragraph is void or otherwise unenforceable, then the arbitration provision set forth in this section shall be deemed null and void in its entirety with respect to the claim giving rise to that decision, and the parties shall no longer be obligated to arbitrate the dispute.

D. Exceptions to This Arbitration Provision

Notwithstanding the binding arbitration provision provided in this Section, either you or Fikabröd may bring an action in state or federal court to protect an intellectual property right, which includes any patent, copyright, trademark, or trade secret. This does not include any claim regarding privacy or publicity right, which are subject to the arbitration provision provided in this Section, above. Either you or Fikabröd may also seek relief in small claims courts for claims within the scope of that court’s jurisdiction. 

E. Right to Opt Out of this Arbitration Provision

You have the right to opt out of the arbitration provision and class action waiver provided in this Section. If you choose to opt out, neither you nor Fikabröd will be bound by these arbitration terms. In order to opt out, you must send written notice of your decision to do so to Fikabrod, LLC, 1300 Ridenour Blvd NW, Suite 212, Kennesaw, GA 30152. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of May 1, 2022, or within thirty (30) days of your first use of the Services, whichever is later. If you do not provide Fikabröd with written notice that you are exercising your right to opt-out within that time period, you will be bound to the arbitration clause and class action waiver provided in these Terms.

F. Changes to this Arbitration Provision

Fikabröd will provide sixty (60) days’ notice of any changes to this section. Changes will become effective on the sixtieth day from the day of notice, and will apply prospectively only to any claims arising after that sixtieth day.

XI. GENERAL PROVISIONS

A. Entire Agreement

These Terms & Conditions, along with any additional terms, conditions, or rules of participation that Fikabröd implements and posts on the Sites or Services, embodies the entire agreement and understanding between you and Fikabröd, and supersedes all previous agreements between you and Fikabröd related to the subject matter hereof.
