We will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your account credentials.

We reserve the right to modify or discontinue free trial offers at any time and to determine eligibility for free trials at our sole discretion. Only one free trial per user.
You may cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period.

Meal plans, grocery lists, nutritional summaries, and dietary insights generated by the Service are produced by an AI language model (Anthropic Claude Haiku). AI-generated content is provided for informational and convenience purposes only.
While we make reasonable efforts to ensure the quality of AI-generated content, we cannot guarantee that meal plans will be free from errors, that nutritional estimates will be precisely accurate, or that dietary restriction compliance will be perfect in every case. You are responsible for reviewing AI-generated content before acting on it.
Grocery cost estimates provided by the Service are approximations based on US average prices and are not guaranteed to reflect actual prices at any specific retailer. Actual prices will vary by location, store, and time of purchase.
Meal plans, grocery lists, and other content generated by the Service on your behalf are provided for your personal use. You may use, print, and share this content for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not commercially license, sell, or distribute AI-generated content from the Service.
You retain ownership of the data and content you provide to the Service — including your dietary profile, meal entries, pantry data, and preferences ("User Content"). By using the Service, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to process and use your User Content solely to provide and improve the Service.
We do not claim ownership of your User Content. We do not sell your User Content to third parties. We process your User Content as described in our Privacy Policy.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of implied warranties, so the above exclusions may not apply to you.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, MENUGROCER, INC. AND ITS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, PARTNERS, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, AND LICENSORS SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, RESULTING FROM:

We may also terminate the Service entirely with 30 days' notice to all users. If we terminate the Service entirely, we will issue pro-rated refunds for unused subscription periods.

Provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination — including intellectual property provisions, disclaimers, indemnification, and limitations of liability — will survive termination.
If you have a dispute with us, please contact us first at hello@menugrocer.com. We will try to resolve the dispute informally within 30 days.
If we cannot resolve a dispute informally, any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be resolved by binding arbitration in accordance with the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA), except that either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in a court of competent jurisdiction for claims involving intellectual property or breach of confidentiality obligations.
TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AGREE THAT DISPUTES WILL BE RESOLVED ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS PART OF A CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. You waive any right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration.
Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking emergency or interim injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction. This section does not apply to claims arising under consumer protection laws in jurisdictions where arbitration clauses are unenforceable for such claims.
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Subject to the arbitration clause above, any legal action or proceeding relating to these Terms shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Delaware, and you consent to the personal jurisdiction of such courts.
If you are located outside the United States, you acknowledge that the Service is operated from the United States and that your data may be transferred to and processed in the United States.
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will notify you by email and by posting a notice on the Service at least 30 days before the changes take effect. The "last updated" date at the top of these Terms reflects the most recent revision.
If you continue to use the Service after the updated Terms take effect, you are deemed to have accepted the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the Service and may delete your account before the changes take effect.
