LeftoverSwap Legalese

We have no clue what this says.

But a lawyer friend said to include it.

We have no intention of this ever needing to be referenced, however it supposedly protects us from stupid people.

Privacy Agreement

Leftover Swap ("LS") collects certain information through its websites and mobile sites, located at leftoverswap.com (the "Sites"), as well as the LeftoverSwap applications (the "Applications") (collectively, "Services"). Your privacy is important to LS and this Privacy Policy lays out LS’s policies and procedures surrounding the collection and handling of such information. This Privacy Policy applies only to the Services. It does not apply to third party services linked to LS Services or offline activities related to LS services.

  1. Information LS Collects. 
LS may collect the following information from users of our Services: first name, last name, street address, city, state, zip code, cross streets, phone number, e-mail address, Services-specific display name, GPS location (mobile site), electronic signature and credit card information (collectively, "Personally Identifiable Information" or "PII"). LS is not intended for use by children under the age of 13 and LS does not knowingly collect PII from children under the age of 13. Use of Sites services requires that you register and/or create an account ("Account") or use the Sites as a guest. In addition to the PII set forth above, LS may collect information regarding Account holders' past LS orders, favorite restaurants, customer service inquiries, service/restaurant reviews and certain social networking preferences relating to the Sites (e.g. pages or entities you like, recommend or follow). In addition, LS may collect information regarding LS account holders' current and past LS orders, favorite restaurants, customer service inquiries, service/restaurant reviews and certain social networking preferences (e.g. pages you "Like" or "Recommend"). LS also uses web analytics software to track and analyze traffic for its Services in connection with LS's advertising and promotion of LS services. LS also aggregates certain information collected by the Applications including, but not limited to, certain order data, and delivery location. LS may publish these statistics or share them with third parties without including PII. LS may collect additional PII in connection with blog submissions including professional title, business/personal website, social networking handle/username and the author's photograph.
  2. LS's Use Of Collected Information. LS uses PII to create users' LS accounts, to communicate with users (directly and through restaurants and delivery) about LS services, to offer users additional services, promotions and special offers. Users may opt to allow LS to store certain PII used to create users' LS accounts, including, but not limited to, credit card information. LS uses certain stored PII to customize future order processing for you. You may request that LS cease storing certain PII at any time, but you might not be able to take advantage of certain customized features. LS may also use PII to enforce LS terms of use and service. For example, when users with LS accounts return to the Sites, cookies identify those users and allow the Sites to provide certain user-specific information such as LS account information, past orders, favorite restaurants and user restaurant reviews. LS does not sell the information it collects through the Services to third parties. LS shares collected PII to third-party vendors and service providers with whom LS works to provide application programming interfaces ("APIs") and other functions for the Services in connection with the delivery of LS services. In addition, LS shares users' LS order content, special order instructions, first and last name, street address, e-mail address, telephone number and gratuity amounts when users' orders are placed for delivery, to the extent necessary to process and deliver those orders. LS may also disclose PII to third parties such as attorneys, collection agencies, tribunals or law enforcement authorities pursuant to valid requests in connection with alleged violations of LS terms of use and service or other alleged contract violations, infringement or similar harm to persons or property. User generated content posted through the Services such as service/restaurant reviews and certain social networking preferences (e.g. pages you "Like" or "Recommend") may be viewed by the general public. Accordingly, LS cannot ensure the privacy of any PII included in such user-generated content.
  3. LS's Protection of PII. LS uses reasonable security measures equal to or exceeding industry standard to protect PII from unauthorized access, destruction, use, modification and disclosure. Unfortunately, even with these measures, LS cannot guarantee the security of PII. By using the Services, you acknowledge and agree that LS makes no such guarantee, and that you use the Services at your own risk.
  4. Privacy Policy Amendments. LS may change this Privacy Policy at any time by posting a new version on this page or on a successor page. The new version will become effective on the posting date, which will be listed at the top of the page as the effective date.
  5. Applicability & Acceptance of These Terms of Use.
 By viewing, using, accessing, browsing, or submitting any content or material on the Sites, you agree to these Terms of Use as a binding legal agreement between you and LS, without limitation or qualification. The term "you" or "You" shall refer to any person or entity who views, uses, accesses, browses or submits any content or material to the Sites.

If you do not agree to these Terms of Use, then you may not use the Sites. LS reserves the right to modify these Terms of Use at any time without prior notice.

You agree that each visit you make to the Sites shall be subject to the then-current Terms of Use, and continued use of the Sites now or following modifications in these Terms of Use confirms that you have read, accepted, and agreed to be bound by such modifications.
  6. User License

    Scope. LS grants you permission (which may be revoked at any time for any reason or no reason) to view the Sites and to download, email, share via social networking or print individual pages from the Sites in accordance with these Terms of Use and solely for your own personal, non-commercial use, provided you do not remove any trademark, copyright or other notice contained on such pages. No other use is permitted. You may not, for example, incorporate the information, content, or other material in any database, compilation, archive or cache. You may not modify, copy, distribute, re-publish, transmit, display, perform, reproduce, publish, reuse, resell, license, create derivative works from, transfer, or sell any information, content, material, software, products or services obtained from the Sites, except as specifically noted above. Except as specifically authorized by LS, you may not deep-link to the Sites for any purpose or access the Sites manually or with any robot, spider, web crawler, extraction software, automated process or device to scrape, copy, or monitor any portion of the Sites or any information, content, or material on the Sites. LS reserves all of its statutory and common law rights against any person or entity who violates this paragraph. You may not link or frame to any pages of the Sites or any content contained therein, whether in whole or in part, without prior written consent from LS. You may like or follow LS or share links to the Sites via social networking technology referenced on the Sites. Any rights not expressly granted herein are reserved.

    Harm from Commercial Use. You agree that the consequences of commercial use or re-publication of content or information from the Sites may be so serious and incalculable that monetary compensation may not be a sufficient or appropriate remedy and that LS will be entitled to temporary and permanent injunctive relief to prohibit such use.

  7. Site Content

    Nature of User Material. Some of the services offered by LS on the Sites allow you and others to post, transmit, display, publish, distribute, or otherwise submit public user generated material including, but not limited to, restaurant reviews and blog entries, to the Sites (collectively, "Submissions").

User Representations and Warranties. Each time you provide a Submission to the Sites, you represent and warrant that you have the right to provide such Submission, which means: you are the author of the Submission, or the Submission is not protected by copyright law, or you have express permission from the copyright owner to use the Submission in connection with the Sites; and you have the right to grant LS the license set out in these Terms of Use; for restaurant review Submission(s), you have had first-hand experience with the subject restaurant; and your use of the Sites and Submission(s) do not violate these Terms of Use.

    User License Grant to LS. You grant LS, its affiliates, and related entities a royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive right and license to use, copy, modify, display, archive, store, publish, transmit, perform, distribute, reproduce and create derivative works from all Submissions you provide to LS in any form, media, software or technology of any kind now existing or developed in the future. Without limiting the generality of the previous sentence, you authorize LS to include the Submissions you provide in a searchable format that may be accessed by users of the Sites. You also grant LS and its and related entities the right to use any Personally Identifiable Information (as that term is defined in LS's Privacy Policy) included with any Submission in connection with the use, reproduction or distribution of such Submission. You also grant LS the right to use the Submission and any facts, ideas, concepts, know-how or techniques ("Information") contained in any Submission or communication you send to LS for any purpose whatsoever, including but not limited to, developing, manufacturing, promoting and/or marketing products and services. You grant all rights described in this paragraph in consideration of your use of the Sites, without compensation of any sort to you. LS does not claim ownership of Submissions.

    Disclaimer of Responsibility for Material. Submissions are not endorsed by LS, and do not represent the views of LS or its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, agents, officers or directors. You acknowledge and agree that LS does not control all Submissions, and disclaims any responsibility for such Submissions. LS specifically disclaims any duty, obligation, or responsibility, to review, screen, refuse to post, remove, or edit any Submissions. In addition, LS does not represent or warrant that any other content or information accessible via the Sites is accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free including the menus, pricing, hours of operation or parking accessibility available from its partner restaurants. Price, description, menu content, product/service availability, parking accessibility and restaurant information are subject to change without notice. LS assumes no responsibility or liability for any errors or omissions in the content of the Sites.

    Review & Removal of Material. LS reserves the right (but disclaims any duty, obligation or responsibility) to review, screen, refuse to post, remove in their entirety, or edit (at any time and without prior notice) any Submissions. You may contact LS at eat@leftoverswap.com to request removal of a Submission. However, LS disclaims any duty, obligation or responsibility to comply with such request except as specifically outlined in this paragraph. LS also reserves the right (but disclaims any duty, obligation, or responsibility) to refuse to post, remove in their entirety, or edit (at any time and without prior notice) any Submissions on the Sites for any reason or no reason whatsoever, in its absolute and sole discretion. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (the "DMCA") provides recourse for copyright owners who believe that material appearing on the Internet infringes their rights under US copyright law. If you believe in good faith that Submissions posted by the Sites infringe your copyright, you (or your agent) may send LS a notice requesting that the Submission(s) be removed from the Site(s), or access to it be blocked. The notice must include the following information: (a) a physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed (or if multiple copyrighted works located on the Sites are covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works); (c) identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or the subject of infringing activity, and information reasonably sufficient to allow LS to locate the Submission(s) Sites; (d) the name, address, telephone number and email address (if available) of the complaining party; (e) a statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that use of the Submission in the manner complained of is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and (f) a statement that the information in the notification is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed. If you believe in good faith that a notice of copyright infringement has been wrongly filed against you, the DMCA permits you to send us a counter-notice. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright for details. Notices and counter-notices with respect to the Sites should be sent to LS, Inc., 111 W. Washington St. Ste. 2100, Chicago, IL 60602. LS suggests that you consult your legal advisor before filing a notice or counter-notice. Also, be aware that there can be penalties for false claims under the DMCA. We reserve the right to terminate the account of any user who is a copyright infringer.

    Proprietary Rights. You acknowledge and agree that the Sites contain proprietary information and content that is protected by intellectual property and other laws, and may not be used except as provided in these Terms of Use without advance, written permission of LS. All Sites design, text, graphics, interfaces, and images (and the selection and arrangements thereof), and software, hypertext markup language ("HTML"), scripts, active server pages, and other content and software used in the Sites are reserved.

  8. Termination and Modifications to the Sites. 
 LS reserves the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to modify, suspend, or discontinue at any time, with or without notice, the Sites and/or services offered on or through the Sites (or any part thereof), including but not limited to the Sites' features, look and feel, and functional elements and related services.
  9. Indemnity. 
 You agree to indemnify and hold LS, its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates, agents, officers, directors, or other employees harmless from any claim, demand, or damage (whether direct, indirect, or consequential), including reasonable attorneys' fees, made by anyone in connection with your use of the Sites, with your Submissions, with any alleged infringement of intellectual property or other right of any person or entity relating to the Sites, your violation of these Terms of Use, and any other acts or omissions relating to the Sites.

THESE LIMITATIONS SHALL APPLY NOTWITHSTANDING ANY FAILURE OF ESSENTIAL PURPOSE OF ANY LIMITED REMEDY. BECAUSE SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES, THE ABOVE LIMITATIONS MAY NOT APPLY TO YOU. IN NO EVENT SHALL LS'S TOTAL LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL DAMAGES, LOSSES AND CAUSES OF ACTION, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO, NEGLIGENCE) OR OTHERWISE, EXCEED (A) THE AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO LS OR A PROVIDER AFFILIATE, IF ANY, OR (B) $100 (WHICHEVER IS LESS).

YOU AND LS AGREE THAT THE WARRANTY DISCLAIMERS AND LIMITATIONS OF LIABILITY IN THESE TERMS OF USE ARE MATERIAL, BARGAINED-FOR BASES OF THIS AGREEMENT, AND THAT THEY HAVE BEEN TAKEN INTO ACCOUNT IN DETERMINING THE CONSIDERATION TO BE GIVENBY EACH PARTY UNDER THIS AGREEMENT AND IN THE DECISION BY EACH PARTY TO ENTER INTO THIS AGREEMENT.
