1. Introduction

This Terms of Use and End User License Agreement (these “Terms”) governs your use of Cake.net, trycake.com, and other websites operated by Cake Corporation (formerly Leapset, Inc.) (“Cake,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) that reference these Terms (the “Sites”), any mobile applications provided by Cake that reference these Terms (such as Cake Guest Manager) (each, an “App”), any social media plugins provided by Cake that reference these Terms, and any other services operated by Cake that reference these Terms (collectively, including the Sites and Apps, the “Services”). These Terms, together with the other agreements and policies explicitly included as part of these Terms (such as Cake’s Privacy Policy (the “Privacy Policy”)) or applicable to Services you use constitute the entire agreement (the “Agreement”) between you and Cake regarding the Services (excluding any services for which you have a separate agreement with Cake that is explicitly in addition to or in place of these Terms).

BY INSTALLING AN APP OR OTHERWISE ACCESSING OR USING ANY SERVICES, OR BY OTHERWISE INDICATING YOUR AGREEMENT TO OR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE TERMS, YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE AGREEMENT. IF YOU ARE USING ANY SERVICES ON BEHALF OF A COMPANY, ENTITY, OR ORGANIZATION, THEN YOU REPRESENT AND WARRANT THAT YOU: (a) ARE AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THAT ENTITY WITH THE AUTHORITY TO BIND THAT ENTITY TO THE AGREEMENT; AND (b) AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THE AGREEMENT ON BEHALF OF THAT ENTITY. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, THEN YOU MAY NOT USE ANY SERVICES.

By agreeing to the Agreement, you represent and warrant to us that: (a) you are at least 18 years old (or at least 13 years old and your parent or guardian has agreed to the Agreement on your behalf) and have the legal capacity to contract, (b) you have not previously been suspended or removed from any Services, and (c) your registration and your use of the Services is and will comply with all applicable laws and regulations. If you are eligible, it’s important that you understand that: (i) just by using the Services you (or, if applicable, your parent or guardian on your behalf) enter a legally binding contract with Cake based on the Agreement terms (as updated from time to time) and (ii) these Terms contain an arbitration provision (described in more detail below) which limits your rights to a class action lawsuit and trial by jury if a dispute occurs.

Cake is a technology company that provides wait-list, online ordering, point-of-sale, and payments services to restaurants and other establishments. These services may include functionality that enables consumers to find, discuss, and transact with (by reserving table space or placing orders, for example) participating merchants (“Restaurants”). The Restaurant (and not Cake) is the seller of any food, beverages and related products and services which you may order and pay for through the Services. Cake does not control the Restaurants or their products or any delivery, pick-up, or customer support services associated with those activities. The Restaurant is solely responsible for any and all damages, claims, liabilities, costs, injuries or illness caused in whole or in part by the Restaurant. Restaurant is also solely responsible for any unclaimed property liability which may arise from purchases of products paid for but not received by you. Further, Cake does not independently verify the quality of any Restaurant’s products or their compliance with applicable laws or regulations. Cake disclaims any liability for any acts or omissions by any Restaurant, including any deficiencies in the quality or character of the food or service (including dietary deficiencies or food safety), the timeliness of service (such as delivery periods), or, in the case of charges made directly to consumer by the restaurant (including transactions where payment is processed through Cake), the accuracy or fairness of those charges.

2. The Ways You May (And May Not) Use The Services

PermissionsIn general, you may use and enjoy the Services so long you comply with the Agreement. However, Cake reserves the right to limit and revoke this permission in its sole discretion. Unless a use permission or right is expressly granted in the Agreement, it is reserved.

Prohibitions. Certain uses related to the Services are just not allowed.

If you believe the restrictions are unduly restrictive, you may provide notice to Cake at support@cake.net, together with any information reasonably required for Cake to consider your situation and determine in its sole discretion if there is a remedy.

Disclaimer on Content. Cake reserves the right to change content on the Services without prior notice. Cake does not guarantee the accuracy of any content pertaining to any Restaurant, such as the hours of operation, the location, or the prices or the availability of menu items.

You Must Have Permission to Send SMS Text Messages to Others. You may be able to use the Services to send SMS text messages, which may include marketing content, to individuals who are not users of the Services. For example, you may be able to invite others to use the Services by text message. You represent and warrant you will initiate and send text messages using the Services only to those individuals who have expressly agreed to receive SMS text messages, including marketing text messages, from you and us. You agree that you control sending text messages you initiate through the Services and that we are limited to facilitating your text message transmissions.

You Consent to Receive SMS Text Messages from Us. By providing us or a Restaurant with your mobile telephone number, you hereby consent to receive direct dial telephone calls and SMS and MMS text messages (from Cake or a Restaurant) at that number relating to the Services (for among, other things, notifications, promotions, account verification, invitations, and other ). The operator of your mobile network (“Carrier”) may charge standard messaging, data, and other fees. You are responsible for these charges. The Services may send and receive text messages through cellular telephone operators or other networks, and the level of reliability may vary. We are not responsible for the timeliness or final delivery of the message, as this is out of our control and is the responsibility of the Carrier or other networks. Contact us immediately if the cell phone number(s) you have provided to Cake are changed or disconnected.

3. Fees; Payment Transactions

Cake provides advertising and marketing services to independently operated Restaurants and retailers on cake.net and other applicable platforms and through the Services. Cake is not the retailer of any products offered by Restaurants.

The Services may enable users to make payment(s) such as credit card payments (a “Payment”) to third parties such as Restaurants that use Cake’s payments services (“Sellers”). By making that payment, you authorize your payment method to be charged by the Seller (or Cake as agent of Seller) to effectuate the Payment and agree to pay all applicable charges, including gratuities, fees and taxes, and any part thereof in connection with the payment. All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes, unless otherwise stated, and you are solely responsible for the payment of any such taxes that may be imposed on your use of the services provided to you. Should you be entitled or subject to a refund, reversal, chargeback, or other adjustment associated with the Payment, you also authorize a credit to your payment method (as applicable) to achieve that adjustment.

In connection with a Payment by payment card Cake acts as a third-party technology provider to, and facilitates payment processing on behalf of, the Restaurant, and has no liability to you or any other person for products you may purchase from a Restaurant or for any Restaurant’s compliance with applicable law, including without limitation local regulations regarding sale of alcohol.

Before you pay any fees or other amounts, you will have an opportunity to review and accept the amounts you will be charged. All amounts are in U.S. dollars unless otherwise noted and are non-refundable. Cake will charge the payment method you specify at the time of You authorize Cake to charge all sums as described in the Agreement, for the Services you select, to that payment method. If you pay any amounts with a credit card, Cake may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to your Payment to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your Payment. These pre-authorizations will reduce your available balance by the authorization amount until it is released or reconciled with the actual charge. The Services may include functionality for activating, updating, or canceling recurring payments for periodic charges. If you choose to store payment method information with Cake via any of the Services for your convenience and use in future transactions, you agree that Cake may receive updated information on your payment method (such as card number or expiration date) through services available from the card networks and may update your payment method credentials stored with Cake from time to time. Payments made through the Services are also subject to the terms of your agreement with your payment method issuer. You are solely responsible for any charges or fees that may be imposed by your payment method issuer as a result of using the Services.

Cake in its discretion may set limits on your use of the Services, such as transaction limits on the dollar amount or number of Payments you may make within certain time periods. We may decline to process any Payment without any notice to you or delay processing of or hold or cancel processing of any Payment upon the direction of the Restaurant or if we determine that the transaction is invalid, suspicious, involves misconduct or fraud, or otherwise violates applicable laws, these Terms, or any of Cake’s commercial agreements with its banking partners related to the Services, or exposes you, other Cake users, Sellers, Cake partners, or Cake Entities to harm (such as, but not limited to, criminal activity).

If you become aware of unauthorized use of your access credentials or any payment method (such as a credit card) associated your account, you are obligated to notify Cake immediately at support@cake.net and remain responsible for any activity on your account until such time as Cake has been notified with sufficient notice to take appropriate action.

4. Rules on the Content You Submit to CAKE

Some aspects of the Services now or in the future may enable you and other users to submit content, such as restaurant reviews, images, and postings, including other users posting content to your account and posting of data drawn from Third Party Services (such as Facebook, etc.) in connection with the Services or promotion of the Services (collectively, “User Media”). Submissions of User Media by visitors to certain parts of the Services may be public and posted in public areas. User Media is intended to enhance the experience of the Services, however, it should not be understood as to be endorsed by or necessarily represent the views of Cake. Cake disclaims any duty to review or modify User Media, including restaurant reviews, and any responsibility for either the effects of harmful files, such as malware, that may be contained in that User Media, or for conduct by users or any third parties in connection with User Media submitted by them or you. Cake (without promising to do so) may decide it is in Cake’s best interests to block, remove, modify, or simply not post any User Media, including restaurant reviews or ratings, for any reason determined by Cake in its sole discretion at any time and may not notify you if it does so.If you decide to submit User Media, you promise you have the right to provide that User Media, which means:

  • You are the creator and owner of the User Media, or
  • The User Media is not protected by copyright law, or
  • You have express permission from the copyright owner to use the User Media in connection with the Services; and
  • You have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to authorize Cake and users of the Services to use and distribute your User Media as necessary to exercise the licenses granted by you in these Terms; and
  • For User Media that reviews Restaurants, you have had first-hand experience with those Restaurants.

You further agree not to submit any User Media otherwise prohibited by these Terms.

You: (a) agree that any User Media you provide in may be read, collected, and used by others who access the User Media, (b) agree to indemnify Cake and its indirect or direct subsidiary, parent, or affiliate companies or any of their employees, officers, directors, licensors, and agents (collectively, with Cake, the “Cake Entities”) from all claims relating to your User Media, and (c) to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, irrevocably waive, and cause to be waived, any claims and assertions of moral rights or attribution regarding your User Media brought against the Cake Entities, any Third Party Services, and our and their users to the extent relating to use of the User Media for the Services or as otherwise expressly permitted under the Agreement. If you feel that User Media should be removed, please let us know, and Cake has the right, but not the obligation, to review such User Media, and ultimately it will be Cake’s decision (subject to any countervailing laws) on whether to take any action related to your request.

If you are accessing the Services as a minor with the consent of a guardian, you may submit a request to delete or anonymize information you post to the Services by emailing support@cake.net. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it may not be possible to completely and comprehensively remove all of your User Media from the Services.

You understand that when using the Services you may be exposed to User Media from a variety of sources and acknowledge that User Media may be inaccurate, offensive, indecent, or objectionable. We expressly disclaim all liability in connection with User Media. If notified by a user or content owner that User Media allegedly does not conform to the Agreement, we may investigate the allegation and User Media in our sole discretion whether to remove the User Media, which we reserve the right to do at any time and without notice. For clarity, Cake does not permit copyright-infringing activities on the Services.

5. Restrictions on Special Promotions

From time to time the Services may offer you opportunities to participate in or utilize, as applicable, contests, coupons, loyalty programs, discounts, or promotional sales being offered by Cake or its Restaurants (each a “Special Promotion”). Special Promotions may, for example, offer a meal discount or a free drink when ordering a sandwich. When a Special Promotion is being offered by a Restaurant, Cake is simply the service provider for the Restaurant identified with that Special Promotion and the Restaurant alone is the seller and offeror of the Special Promotion and is solely responsible for redeeming any sale you purchase.

Special Promotions (unless stated to the contrary in the terms of the Special Promotion) are (a) available for only a limited time and may expire prior to you taking advantage of the Special Promotion, (b) only applicable to qualifying items and qualifying (e.g., minimum) purchase requirements, (c) not transferrable or combinable with other offers, and (d) void where prohibited and may not be available to users in certain locations. Further, for each Special Promotion being offered by Cake, we reserve the right to modify and limit its conditions, including the offer period except as limited by applicable law. We further reserve the right to modify, suspend or  terminate the technology services that enable Restaurants to offer Special Promotions through Cake.

6. Your Dealings With Third Parties

GeneralCake makes it easier for you to connect with other Cake users and buy from or connect with third parties (entities other than Cake Entities) that offer goods, services, or promotions to you through the Services or otherwise provide you with access to third party websites, databases, networks, servers, information, software, programs, systems, directories, applications, or products or services (collectively, “Third Party Services”). The Services may contain links to third party websites or display advertisements and promotional material of goods and services offered by third parties. However, Cake does not have or maintain any control over Third Party Services and is not responsible for their content, operation, or use. Cake is not responsible for the acts of third parties (including Restaurants and advertisers) and may not monitor your dealings with them. By linking or otherwise displaying information from or providing access to any Third Party Services, Cake gives no representation, warranty, or endorsement, express or implied, regarding the legality, accuracy, quality, or authenticity of content, information, or services provided by those Third Party Services. Your dealings with third parties made through the Sites and/or Apps, including payment and delivery of related goods or services, and any other terms, conditions, warranties, or representations associated with those dealings, are solely between you and the third party and at your own risk. Conduct any diligence you feel necessary before engaging online or offline with any of these third parties. Note that third parties may pay Cake to be promoted on the Services or to have their respective product or service offering(s) placed higher in search results and may also purchase research or other services from Cake. Additionally, any third party content made available through the Services is owned by such third parties or their licensors and you agree to not use, copy or display the such third party content except as expressly permitted or as stated under these Terms.

Pricing and Customer Service for Third Party Goods and Services. The purchase price for goods and services made available via the Services, as designed on the Cake system, is ultimately determined by Restaurants and Cake is not responsible for that price. Note that Cake does not guarantee that Restaurant pricing will not vary depending on the nature of the order transaction (online versus in-store) or the dining experience (delivery or take-away or in-store). If you believe that an item has been priced incorrectly, contact the Restaurant for additional information. Relatedly, the applicable Restaurant — not Cake — is responsible for all aspects of purchased goods and services, including customer service matters, such as returns, refunds, rebates, or issues with the Restaurant’s policies or personnel.

Disclaimer of Liability for Third Party Services. You are solely responsible for taking the precautions necessary to protect yourself from fraud when using Third Party Services, and to protect your computer systems from viruses, worms, Trojan horses, and other harmful or destructive content and material that may be included on or may emanate from any Third Party Services. Cake disclaims all responsibility or liability for any harm resulting from your use of Third Party Services, and you irrevocably waive any claim against Cake regarding the content or operation of any Third Party Services.

Third Party Fees. Your use of the Services may incur third party fees, such as fees charged by your Carrier for data usage, and may be subject to other terms, such as your Carrier’s terms of service, and you agree to pay all of those fees and abide by all of those terms. You are solely responsible for all of those fees incurred by you for use of the Services.

Third Party Software. If you use an App, the software you download consists of a package of components, including certain third party software provided under separate license terms (the “Third Party Terms”). Your use of that software with the App in a manner consistent with the terms of the Agreement is permitted, however, you may have broader rights under the applicable Third Party Terms and nothing in the Agreement is intended to impose further restrictions on your use of that software. A list of third party software, if any, provided under Third Party Terms is as follows: Ubuntu; Spring Framework; Symfony Framework; Google Guice; React; Apache; Jetty; Tomcat; Node Js; RabbitMq; MemCache; TeamViewer; IntelliJ; Atlassian Tools; Eclipse; CouchDB; MySQL; Hadoop; iOS; and Android. The applicable Third Party Terms are accessible via links from the web sites of those licensors. Operator is bound by and will comply with all Third Party Terms.

7. Signing Up For, Protecting and Termination of a CAKE Account

Use of the Services may require registration and/or creation of an account with Cake (either by registering directly or through sign-on functionality provided by social networks or third party sites or services, such as Facebook.) If you create an account or Cake profile, you promise to provide accurate, complete registration information, and to keep that information up-to-date if it changes. When you register, you may obtain log-in and password credentials (a “User ID”).

If you register for an account, you must (a) maintain the security of your User ID, (b) accept full responsibility for all activities that occur under your User ID, and (c) notify Cake immediately if you learn your User ID is being used without authorization. Cake will not be liable for any damage of any kind arising from or relating to any acts or omissions by you or someone else using your User ID.

Cake reserves the right to suspend or terminate your account with or without notice. Upon termination of your account you agree that: (a) any use rights or licenses provided to you under the Agreement will end, and (b) Cake may permanently destroy all information associated with your or your account stored on servers controlled by Cake.

You may close your Cake account at any time but you will remain obligated for any outstanding Payments as well as any fees or other charges incurred. You can close your account by emailing support@cake.net. Please review the Privacy Policy for further information about practices regarding your personal information. In certain cases, we may not permit the closure of your account, including but not limited to situations where you have open or pending purchases or if you owe money to Cake or a Restaurant due to your use of the Services.

Cake is not liable to you or any third party for compensation, reimbursement, or damages in connection with any termination or suspension of the Services or any deletion of information associated with you or your account. Termination of the Agreement by either party does not relieve you of any payment obligations owed to Restaurants or Cake that accrued prior to the termination and any other amounts owed by you under the Agreement.

By entering into the Agreement, you expressly authorize Cake to share information about you, your account, and any of your transactions with law enforcement if Cake reasonably believes that your Cake account has been used for an unauthorized or illegal purpose, and as otherwise described in the Privacy Policy.

8. CAKE’S Rights to Modify the Agreement or Services

Cake may change or add to the terms of the Agreement at any time through the processes described in the applicable portions of the Agreement (“Agreement Change”). If a change to the Agreement materially modifies your rights or obligations, you will have to accept the modified Agreement to continue to use the Services. Please check the Agreement periodically for changes. You understand the importance of regularly reviewing these Terms and other portions of the Agreement as updated on the relevant Site or App. Agreement Changes that are material are effective upon your acceptance of the modified Agreement. Use of the Services after notice of any Agreement Change will confirm that accepted the modifications to the Agreement. Agreement Changes that are immaterial are effective upon publication. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (a) any dispute between the parties that arose before the effective date of an Agreement Change is governed by the Agreement (including the binding individual arbitration clause) that was in place when the dispute arose and (b) if an Agreement Change negatively and materially impacts your rights under the Agreement, and Cake does not waive the applicability of those changes to you, you may terminate the Agreement by providing written notice of termination to Cake. Your notice must be given within 30 days following the date of notice by Cake of the Agreement Change (through posting on the Sites, Apps, or otherwise).

We reserve the right to modify or discontinue any part of the Services (including by limiting or discontinuing certain features of the Services), temporarily or permanently, without notice to you. We will have no liability because of any change to the Services or any suspension or termination of your access to or use of the Services.

9. How Other Policies Form the Agreement

These Terms incorporate certain of Cake’s policies generally applicable to users of the Sites and Apps as well specific agreements relating to portions of the Services as described below. These Terms together with those policies and Services-specific agreements (as applicable) together constitute all the terms and conditions agreed upon between you and Cake and supersede any prior agreements in relation to the subject matter of the Agreement, other than a signed, written agreement between you and Cake relating to the applicable portion of the Services that is the subject matter of the Agreement. The Agreement will govern any updates to the Services provided to you by Cake that replace or supplement the Services, unless the upgrade is accompanied by a separate agreement, in which case the terms of that separate agreement will govern.

General Policies. You may access the policies described below at the Sites and you represent that you have and read and agree to all provisions of those policies and understand they are incorporated by reference into these Terms. The policies are as follows:

  • Privacy Policy. The Privacy Policy explains what information we collect about you and our use and treatment of that information.

By accessing and using the Services, you are agreeing to these Terms and with Cake’s practices regarding the collection, use, and disclosure of your information, as set forth in the Privacy Policy. Please click here to access the Privacy Policy. 
  • Return and Refund Policy.

All refunds are governed by the refund policies of the Restaurant from which you ordered. If you contact us with a refund request, we will not process any refund until we receive the consent of the applicable Restaurant. Credits or adjustments in connection with refunds or cancelled orders involve banks and card networks and can take up to 7–10 days to appear in your bank account.

Services-Specific Agreements. Certain aspects of the Services may be governed by separate terms or agreements applicable only to that aspect of the Services. Some of those terms and agreements are set forth below. If you do not use that aspect of the Services, that agreement may not be relevant to you.

By posting User Submissions on public portions of the Services or sharing User Submissions with other users of the Services, you grant those users a non-exclusive license to access and use those User Submissions as permitted by the Agreement and the functionality of the Services. These licenses survive termination of the Agreement.

11. Consent to Arbitrate and Waiver of Class Action

This Section requires that claims or disputes arising out of the Agreement that cannot be negotiated to resolution be generally resolved through arbitration (and not by the courts). Please read it carefully. This Section survives termination of these Terms.

Initiating a ClaimWe want our users to have an excellent experience so we encourage you to contact our customer support team if you have concerns regarding the operation of the Services or Cake. If you conclude that we have not satisfied your concern and that you must pursue legal action, you agree that your claim must be resolved by the processes in this Section.

General. To resolve disputes between you and Cake in the most expedient and cost effective manner, to the fullest extent permitted by law you and Cake agree that every dispute arising in connection with the Agreement will be resolved by binding arbitration. Arbitration is less formal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, may allow for more limited discovery than in court, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can generally award the same damages and relief that a court can award. The Agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of the Agreement, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of the Agreement. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THE AGREEMENT, YOU AND CAKE ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.

Exceptions. Nothing in the Agreement will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either party to: (a) bring an individual action in small claims court; (b) pursue an enforcement action through the federal, state, provincial or local agency if that action is available; (c) seek injunctive relief in a court of law; or (d) to file suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

Arbitrator. Any arbitration between you and Cake will be settled under the Federal Arbitration Act, and governed by the Commercial Dispute Resolution Procedures and the Supplementary Procedures for Consumer Related Disputes (collectively, “AAA Rules”) of the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”), as modified by these Terms, and will be administered by the AAA. The AAA Rules and filing forms are available online at www.adr.org, by calling the AAA at 1-800-778-7879, or by contacting Cake.

Notice; Process. A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the dispute to the other party by certified U.S. Mail or Canada Post mail, or by Federal Express (signature required) or, only if the other party has not provided a current physical address, then by electronic mail (“Notice”). Cake’s address for Notice is: Cake Corporation, 1528 S. El Camino Real, Suite 101, San Mateo, CA 94402. The Notice must: (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). The parties will make good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if the parties do not reach an agreement to do so within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or Cake may commence an arbitration proceeding. During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Cake must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any. If the dispute is finally resolved through arbitration in your favor, Cake will pay you the highest of : (a) the amount awarded by the arbitrator, if any; (b) the last written settlement amount offered by Cake in settlement of the dispute prior to the arbitrator’s award; or (c) $1,000.

Fees. If you commence arbitration under the Agreement, Cake will reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for more than $10,000, in which case the payment of any fees will be decided by the AAA Rules. Any arbitration hearing will take place at a location to be agreed upon in Santa Clara County, California, but if the claim is for $10,000 or less, You may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (a) solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; (b) through a non-appearance based telephone hearing; or (c) by an in-person hearing as established by the AAA Rules in the county (or parish) of your billing address. If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the AAA Rules. In that case, you will reimburse Cake for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the AAA Rules. Regardless of how the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based. The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within 14 days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

No Class Actions. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, YOU AND CAKE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Cake agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one individual’s or entity’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

Modifications to this Arbitration Provision. If Cake changes this arbitration provision, other than a change to Cake’s address for Notice, you may reject the change by sending Cake written notice within 30 days of the change to Cake’s address for Notice, in which case your account with Cake will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected will survive.

Enforceability. The arbitrator has exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability, or enforceability of this binding arbitration agreement. If this Section 11 is found to be unenforceable or if this entire Section 11 is found to be unenforceable, then this entire Section 11 is null and void, the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in effect under the “Severability” clause in Section 14 below, and the exclusive jurisdiction and venue described in Section 14 will govern any action arising out of or related to the Agreement.

12. Limitation of Liability

Generally. Please read this Section carefully since it limits the liability of the Cake Entities. Each of the subsections below only applies up to the maximum extent permitted under applicable law. Nothing in this Section is intended to limit any rights you may have that may not be lawfully limited.

Limitation of Liability. NO CAKE ENTITY WILL BE LIABLE TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PARTY FOR INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR DAMAGES FOR LOSS OF PROFITS, GOODWILL, USE, DATA, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, THAT ARISE FROM THE USE OF, INABILITY TO USE, OR UNAVAILABILITY OF THE SERVICES OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT ON THE SERVICES OR OTHERWISE ARISE IN CONNECTION WITH THE AGREEMENT WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT (INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE), STATUTE, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY, AND WHETHER OR NOT ANY CAKE ENTITY HAS BEEN INFORMED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF DAMAGE. UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES WILL ANY CAKE ENTITY BE RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE, LOSS, OR INJURY RESULTING FROM HACKING, TAMPERING, OR OTHER UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS OR USE OF THE SERVICES OR YOUR ACCOUNT, OR THE INFORMATION CONTAINED IN YOUR ACCOUNT OR ACCESSIBLE VIA THE SERVICES.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE CAKE ENTITIES ASSUME NO LIABILITY OR RESPONSIBILITY FOR (a) ANY LOSS OF PAYMENT TRANSACTIONS OR LOSS OF DATA, (b) PERSONAL INJURY OR PROPERTY DAMAGE, OF ANY NATURE WHATSOEVER, RESULTING FROM YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF ANY SERVICES, (c) ANY UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR USE OF CAKE’S SYSTEMS OR ANY AND ALL PERSONAL INFORMATION OR FINANCIAL INFORMATION STORED ON THOSE SYSTEMS, (d) ANY INTERRUPTION OR CESSATION OF TRANSMISSION TO OR FROM THE SERVICES, (e) ANY BUGS, VIRUSES, TROJAN HORSES, OR THE LIKE THAT MAY BE TRANSMITTED TO OR THROUGH THE SERVICES BY ANY THIRD PARTY, (f) ANY ERRORS OR OMISSIONS IN ANY CONTENT AND MATERIALS OR FOR ANY LOSS OR DAMAGE OF ANY KIND INCURRED AS A RESULT OF THE USE OF ANY CONTENT MADE AVAILABLE VIA THE SERVICES, (g) YOUR CONTENT, OR (h) THE DEFAMATORY, OFFENSIVE, OR ILLEGAL CONDUCT OF ANY THIRD PARTY.

EXCEPT AS PROVIDED IN PART (iii) OF THE “Notice; Process” SECTION OF SECTION 11, NO CAKE ENTITY OR ANY OF THEIR PROCESSORS, SERVICE PROVIDERS, SUPPLIERS, OR LICENSORS (OR THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES, AGENTS, DIRECTORS, OR EMPLOYEES) WILL BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY CLAIMS, PROCEEDINGS, LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, DAMAGES, LOSSES OR COSTS IN AN AMOUNT EXCEEDING THE GREATER OF (a) THE AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF FEES AND CHARGES PAID BY YOU TO CAKE PURSUANT TO THE AGREEMENT FOR THE APPLICABLE SERVICES RELATING TO THE CLAIMS, PROCEEDINGS, LIABILITIES, OBLIGATIONS, DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR COSTS IN THE SIX MONTH PERIOD PRECEDING THE EVENT THAT GAVE RISE TO THE CLAIM OF LIABILITY, OR (b) $100.

YOU RECOGNIZE AND CONFIRM THAT IF YOU INCUR ANY DAMAGES, LOSSES, OR INJURIES THAT ARISE OUT OF THE SERVICES OR ANY CAKE ENTITY’S ACTS OR OMISSIONS, THE DAMAGES, IF ANY, CAUSED TO YOU ARE NOT IRREPARABLE OR SUFFICIENT TO ENTITLE YOU TO AN INJUNCTION, AND YOU WILL HAVE NO RIGHTS TO ENJOIN OR RESTRAIN THE DEVELOPMENT, PRODUCTION, DISTRIBUTION, ADVERTISING, EXHIBITION, OR EXPLOITATION OF THE SERVICES.

IF YOU ARE A CALIFORNIA RESIDENT, YOU WAIVE CALIFORNIA CIVIL CODE SECTION 1542, WHICH SAYS: “A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH, IF KNOWN BY HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTOR.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT ALLOWED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, YOU ALSO WAIVE ANY PROTECTION THAT MAY EXIST UNDER ANY COMPARABLE OR SIMILAR STATUTES OR PRINCIPLES OF COMMON LAW APPLICABLE IN STATES OTHER THAN CALIFORNIA.

EACH PROVISION OF THE AGREEMENT THAT PROVIDES FOR A LIMITATION OF LIABILITY, DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES, OR EXCLUSION OF DAMAGES IS INTENDED TO AND DOES ALLOCATE THE RISKS BETWEEN THE PARTIES UNDER THE AGREEMENT. THIS ALLOCATION IS AN ESSENTIAL ELEMENT OF THE BASIS OF THE BARGAIN BETWEEN THE PARTIES. EACH OF THESE PROVISIONS IS SEVERABLE AND INDEPENDENT OF ALL OTHER PROVISIONS OF THE AGREEMENT. THE LIMITATIONS IN THIS SECTION 12 WILL APPLY EVEN IF ANY LIMITED REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

Third Party Disputes. ANY DISPUTE YOU HAVE WITH ANY CARRIER, THIRD PARTY PROVIDER, THIRD PARTY SERVICE, OR OTHER THIRD PARTY, INCLUDING ANY OTHER USER OF THE SERVICES, IS DIRECTLY BETWEEN YOU AND THAT THIRD PARTY, AND YOU IRREVOCABLY RELEASE THE CAKE ENTITIES FROM ANY AND ALL CLAIMS, DEMANDS AND DAMAGES (ACTUAL AND CONSEQUENTIAL) OF EVERY KIND AND NATURE, KNOWN AND UNKNOWN, ARISING OUT OF OR IN ANY WAY CONNECTED WITH THOSE DISPUTES.

14. Dreary Miscellaneous Terms That Are Still Important

This Section may be laborious to read but it is an essential part of the understanding between Cake and you. Cake’s ability to make the services it provides to its users depends on structuring the engagement on terms that meet Cake’s internal risk tolerance requirements. While we are sympathetic if you cannot agree to any of the Agreement, including the terms in this Section, you may not use the Services if you make that decision. In that event, however, we want to hear from you, so please contact us at support@cake.net if you find the Agreement prohibitively restrictive.

Disclosures and Notices and E-Sign Consent. Cake may provide disclosures and notices regarding the Services, the Agreement, or your account to you electronically by posting it to one of the Sites, or by emailing it to an email address listed in your user account. Those electronic disclosures and notices will have the same meaning and effect as if you were provided with physical copies. Those disclosures and notices are considered received by you within 48 hours of the time posted or emailed to you unless Cake receives notice of non-delivery. Review the applicable Site or App regularly to review the prevailing disclosures and notices and check for updates. You will keep email address(es) valid and active and to monitor your email account(s). Cake will not be liable to you or any third party for any losses resulting from your failure to comply with the foregoing. To withdraw consent to receiving disclosures and notices electronically, contact support@cake.net. You agree that your electronic signature shall have the same effect as a manual, physical signature. Your consent to receive electronic communications is valid until and unless you revoke it. While you may revoke your consent at any time, consent to electronic Communications is a condition of some Cake Services, and if you revoke it you will no longer be permitted to use the Services.

Recording Calls. To the extent permitted by law Cake may, without further notice or warning and in our discretion, monitor or record telephone conversations you or anyone acting on your behalf has with Cake or its agents for quality control and training purposes or for its own protection. You acknowledge and understand that, while your communications with Cake may be overheard, monitored, or recorded without further notice or warning, not all telephone lines or calls may be recorded by Cake, and Cake does not guarantee that recordings of any telephone calls will be retained or retrievable.

Disclaimers. THE SERVICES AND OTHER MATERIALS OR TECHNOLOGY MADE AVAILABLE BY CAKE TO YOU UNDER THE AGREEMENT, THROUGH THE SERVICES, OR PROVIDED INCIDENTALLY TO THE AGREEMENT ARE PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTY OR CONDITION OF ANY KIND AND THE CAKE ENTITIES HEREBY DISCLAIM ANY AND ALL REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES OR CONDITIONS, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, MADE TO YOU OR ANY OTHER PERSON, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY OR CONDITION REGARDING QUALITY, SUITABILITY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, QUIET ENJOYMENT, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, OR OTHERWISE (REGARDLESS OF ANY COURSE OF DEALING, CUSTOM, OR USAGE OF TRADE). YOUR ACCESS TO AND USE OF THE SERVICES, ANY WEBSITES OR MATERIALS LINKED TO ANY SERVICES IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. THE CAKE ENTITIES DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES OR ANY PORTION OF THE SERVICES, OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT OFFERED THROUGH THE CAKE SERVICES, WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, OR FREE OF ERRORS, VIRUSES, OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, AND DO NOT WARRANT THAT ANY OF THOSE ISSUES WILL BE CORRECTED.

NO ADVICE OR INFORMATION, WHETHER ORAL OR WRITTEN, OBTAINED BY YOU FROM THE SERVICES OR ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICES WILL CREATE ANY WARRANTY REGARDING ANY OF THE CAKE ENTITIES OR THE SERVICES. YOU ASSUME ALL RISK FOR ANY DAMAGE THAT MAY RESULT FROM YOUR USE OF OR ACCESS TO THE SERVICES, YOUR DEALING WITH ANY THIRD PARTY IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES, AND ANY MATERIALS OR CONTENT AVAILABLE THROUGH THE SERVICES. YOU ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR ANY DAMAGE TO YOUR PROPERTY (INCLUDING YOUR COMPUTER SYSTEM OR MOBILE DEVICE USED IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES), OR THE LOSS OF DATA THAT RESULTS FROM THE USE OF THE SERVICES OR THE DOWNLOAD OR USE OF RELATED MATERIAL OR CONTENT.

SOME JURISDICTIONS MAY PROHIBIT A DISCLAIMER OF WARRANTIES AND CONDITIONS AND YOU MAY HAVE OTHER RIGHTS THAT VARY FROM JURISDICTION TO JURISDICTION.

Indemnification. You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Cake Entities against all claims, liabilities, damages, losses, expenses, tax assessments, penalties, interest, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs) arising out of or connected with any claim, action, audit, investigation, inquiry, or other proceeding instituted by an individual or entity that arises out of or relates to: (a) your access to, use of, or alleged use of, the Services, including your interaction with any entity that advertises or promotes offers on the Services; (b) any actual or alleged violation of your representations, warranties, agreements, or obligations referenced in the Agreement or any applicable law or regulation; (c) any actual or alleged violation by you of Cake’s policies or applicable policies of its business partners or payment card association rules; (d) wrongful or improper use of any Services by or on behalf of you; (e) your violation of any rights of a third party, including any intellectual property right or publicity, confidentiality, other property, or privacy right; (f) your violation of any federal, state, or local law, rule, or regulation, including any applicable data privacy or security laws, any laws governing gift cards, and any law or regulation governing the use or sale of alcohol; and (g) any dispute or issue between you and any third party, including a Restaurant. Cake maintains the right to control its own defense and to choose its own legal counsel in any matter subject to the foregoing indemnification, and you will cooperate with Cake’s defense of the claim.

Assignment. The Agreement, and any rights or obligations hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without Cake’s prior written consent, but may be assigned or transferred by Cake without restriction.

Excused Non-Performance. Cake will not be liable or responsible to you, nor be deemed to have defaulted or breached the Agreement, for any failure or delay in fulfilling or performing any term of the Agreement when and if failure or delay is caused by or results from acts or circumstances beyond the reasonable control of Cake including acts of God, flood, fire, earthquake, explosion, governmental actions, war, invasion or hostilities (whether war is declared or not), terrorist threats or acts, riot, or other civil unrest, national emergency, revolution, insurrection, epidemic, lockouts, strikes, or other labor disputes (whether or not relating to either party’s workforce), or restraints or delays affecting carriers or inability or delay in obtaining supplies of adequate or suitable materials, materials or telecommunication breakdown or power outage.

Entire Agreement. The Agreement, along with any applicable policies and agreements made available at any Site or App incorporated into the Agreement by express reference and any exhibits, appendices, addenda, schedules, and amendments explicitly made to the Agreement, sets forth the entire understanding between you and Cake regarding your use of the Services, and supersedes all other agreements, oral or in writing related to the Services, unless made in writing and expressly incorporated into the Agreement.

Waiver. No waiver by any party of any of the Agreement will be effective unless explicitly set forth in writing and signed by the party so waiving. Except as otherwise set forth in the Agreement, no failure to exercise, or delay in exercising, any rights, remedy, power, or privilege arising from the Agreement will operate or be construed as a waiver thereof, nor will any single or partial exercise of any right, remedy, power or privilege preclude any other or further exercise thereof or exercising any other right, remedy, power, or privilege. NOTHING IN THE AGREEMENT WILL AFFECT ANY NON-WAIVABLE STATUTORY RIGHTS THAT APPLY TO YOU.

Severability. If any term or provision of the Agreement is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, that invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability will affect no other term or provision or invalidate or render unenforceable that term or provision in any other jurisdiction.

Governing Law. The Agreement is governed by and construed under the laws of the State of California without reference to conflict of laws principles that would cause the application of the laws of another jurisdiction. If a lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under the Agreement, then you and Cake will submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts within San Francisco, California to litigate any dispute.

Interpretation. Section headings are used in the Agreement for convenience of reference only and will not affect the meaning of any provision of the Agreement. For purposes of the Agreement: (a) the words “include,” “includes,” and “including” will be deemed followed by the words “without limitation”; (b) the words “such as,” “for example,” “e.g.,” and any derivatives of those words will mean by way of example and the items that follow these words will not be deemed an exhaustive list; and (c) the word “or” is used in the inclusive sense of “or” and the terms “or,” “any,” and “either” are not exclusive. No ambiguity will be construed against any party based on a claim that the party drafted the language.

In addition, if you use our Services to send information or a product to another person, we may store that information in a form that is personally identifiable. Mad Mobile may also process Personal Information submitted to us in connection with our employment activities, such as in connection with recruitment efforts or candidate evaluations.

You may disclose Personal Information to us so that we can provide assistance and information to you. Where consistent with applicable law we record and store telephone calls and chat transcripts for a period of time when you interact with our customer or technical support personnel, or if you provide us feedback about our Services.

We may also use Personal Information for any other business purpose stated when collecting such Personal Information or as otherwise set forth in applicable data privacy laws, such as the California Consumer Privacy Act (the “CCPA”).

Location and Device Information. Mad Mobile may directly or through third parties collect device-specific information about you (and any device associated with your account) including without limitation any GPS-based, Wi-Fi-based, or cell-based location information (“Geolocation Information”), and any other identifier that permits direct identifying, locating, or contacting of the device or user. That information may include the presence of the device, its signal strength and mobile network information, its manufacturer (Apple, Samsung, etc.) and model, software running on the device, unique identifiers such as its Media Access Control (MAC) address, and information about the device’s interaction with the Services or business services.

Mad Mobile uses this information for various reasons, such as enabling the monitoring of browsing activity and session replays, better understanding our customers and other individuals who access our Services, promoting the businesses of Mad Mobile, developing more interesting and relevant products and services, and helping Merchants better understand customer behavior. For example, Mad Mobile may share information such as how many people visit a Merchant, how long people stay, how often they return, what sections of the store they visit, and whether customers visit other of the Merchant’s locations. Mad Mobile may also combine Personal Information with other information collected in connection with your use of the Services to facilitate the delivery of marketed messages to you or otherwise use for purposes related to the business of Mad Mobile and its parent and subsidiary companies. These marketing messages are optional in Canada; if you do not want to receive them see the section entitled “Optional Use and Disclosure of Your Personal Information (Canada)” below.
 

Demographic and Profile Information. We may at times request information that is not directly personally identifiable, such as age and annual income, unless it is stored or used in combination with any direct personal identifiers (such as your name or email address). This type of information is primarily used to display more customized content and improve user experience of and promote the Services.
 

Usage Information. We automatically store information related to the use of the Services, such as Site pages you viewed, your internet protocol (IP) address, browser type, internet service provider (ISP), referring/exit pages, browsing data such as the path you take through the Sites or Services and how long you spent on a page, platform type, access device, and the date and time of your visit or transaction. We may use this data administer the Services, analyze trends, anticipate traffic load demands, track user behavior, gather broad demographic information for aggregate use, for session replays and to otherwise provide the Services.

Merchant Biometric Information. For employees or other users acting on behalf of Merchants that use Mad Mobile hardware devices with a biometric or finger scanning device for security and/or workforce management, please see the Biometric Information Use Policy.

Cookies and Similar Automatically Collected Information. Mad Mobile, its affiliates and our partners use various technologies to collect information when you use our Services, including web beacons, pixel tags and sending cookies – small data files placed on a device’s hard drive or memory – to user’s devices in order to, among other things, identify the status of the user, retain your preferences and account settings, analyze trends, learn about Mad Mobile’s user base, customize and improve the Services, and mitigate risks and the potential for fraud. One of the primary purposes of cookies is to provide a convenience feature to save you time. For example, if you personalize a web page, or navigate within a site, a cookie helps the site to recall your specific information on subsequent visits. Hence, this simplifies the process of delivering relevant content and eases site navigation by providing and saving your preferences and login information as well as providing personalized functionality. We reserve the right to share aggregated site statistics with our affiliate and partner companies.

In addition, to the extent that advertisements are served through the Services, our third-party advertisers may place or recognize a unique cookie on browsers. We may also collect information using web beacons (objects embedded in a web page or email which are used to check if a user has accessed content).  In addition, Mad Mobile may allow third parties or service providers to collect information directly from you on behalf of Mad Mobile when you visit the Services for the purposes stated in the Policy including analytics, improving the Services, operational activities, lookalike data modelling and go-to-market activities.

Our web pages may contain electronic images known as tracking pixels that allow us to count users who have visited those pages and to deliver co-branded services. We may include tracking pixels in promotional e-mail messages or newsletters in order to determine whether messages have been opened and acted upon. Some of these tracking pixels may be placed by third-party service providers to help determine the effectiveness of our advertising campaigns or email communications. These tracking pixels may be used by these service providers to place a persistent cookie on your computer. This allows the service provider to recognize your computer each time you visit certain pages or emails and compile anonymous information in relation to those page views, which in turn enables us and our service providers to learn which advertisements and emails bring you to our Site(s) and how you use the Site(s).

Mad Mobile may also supplement the information we collect from you with information received from third parties, including third parties that have placed their own cookies on your device(s). If you view a web page created by a third party or use an application created by a third party, those third parties may use their own cookies or web beacons that are not subject to Mad Mobile’s control or this Policy. For instance, we use Google Analytics to collect and process certain analytics data.  Google provides some additional privacy options described at www.google.com/policies/privacy/partners/ regarding Google Analytics cookies.  We also use Mixpanel to collect and process certain analytics data.  More information about Mixpanel’s data practices may be found online at http://mixpanel.com/privacy/.  To opt-out of Mixpanel analytics, please go to https://mixpanel.com/optout/ or review the current instructions in the Mixpanel Privacy Policy.

By using the Services, you consent to the use of the above technologies, including cookies and pixel tags, to collect information about you. You can decide whether or not to accept cookies through your browser’s settings. Most browsers have an option for turning off the cookie feature, which will prevent your browser from accepting new cookies, as well as (depending on the sophistication of your browser software) allow you to decide on acceptance of each new cookie in a variety of ways. You can also delete all cookies that are already on your computer. If you do this, however, you may have to manually adjust some preferences every time you visit a site and some of the Services and functionalities may not work. To explore what cookie settings are available to you, look in the “preferences” or “options” section of your browser’s menu.

If you want to opt out of receiving online interest-based advertisements on your internet browser from advertisers and third parties that participate in the DAA program and perform advertising-related services for us and our partners, please follow the instructions at www.aboutads.info/choices or http://www.networkadvertising.org/choices/ to place an opt-out cookie on your device indicating that you do not want to receive interest-based advertisements.

We are committed to providing you with meaningful choices about the information collected on our Services for third party purposes. That is why we have provided links (above) to the NAI “Consumer Opt-Out” link, the DAA opt-out link, and a Mixpanel opt-out link. However, we do not currently recognize or respond to browser-initiated Do-Not-Track signals. If you reside in a jurisdiction that mandates that Mad Mobile respond to DNT signals and wish to opt-out of cookies or other data collection technologies, please write to our support team at support@trycake.com.
 

Digital Receipts. In connection with the Services, you may receive receipts in connection with order transactions. If you opt to receive receipts via email or text message, Mad Mobile retains any provided email address or phone number and you authorize Mad Mobile to use that address or phone number when sending you receipts in connection with purchases and to automatically send you digital receipts for future purchases you make from Merchants. Digital receipts may contain additional messages, offers, or links that may be of interest to you. If at any time you wish to opt out of receiving automatic digital receipts, please follow the instructions in your digital receipt (if applicable) or contact Mad Mobile at support@trycake.com.

  1. II. How Your User Information May Be Shared

Mad Mobile works with third parties to help provide its services to consumers and Merchants and maintain and improve its services and business and we may share User Information with those third parties to further these efforts. Without limiting the foregoing (and to the extent permitted by applicable law), Mad Mobile will share User Information with third parties with your consent as well as in the following circumstances:

Affiliates. A Mad Mobile entity may share information it collects with parent and subsidiary companies or affiliate companies that Mad Mobile controls or is controlled by for the purposes outlined above, including to coordinate the provision of services to you by Merchants and improve and promote Mad Mobile businesses and services and offer you products and services that may of interest to you. These marketing messages are optional in Canada; if you do not want to receive them see the section entitled “Optional Use and Disclosure of Your Personal Information (Canada)” below.

Merchants. We may share User Information with Merchants to, among other things, provide, maintain, and improve our Services, such as facilitating the payment of orders or delivery of services and otherwise supporting the business services we provide to Merchants. By using the Services, you give Mad Mobile permission to share User Information about you with any of the Merchants. For example, we may share information about you when you are located near a participating Merchant. This policy does not describe the practices of Merchants that may receive or collect information from you. Mad Mobile’s sharing of User Information with Merchants may allow Merchants (or any party authorized to act on behalf of Merchants (such as Mad Mobile or a third party)) to market directly to you should they choose to do so. These marketing messages are optional in Canada; if you do not want to receive them see the section entitled “Optional Use and Disclosure of Your Personal Information (Canada)” below. We do not have any responsibility for the actions of Merchants.
 

Third Party Service Providers. We may share User Information, including Personal Information and Geolocation Information, with third parties to provide, maintain, and improve our Services, including service providers who access information about you to perform services on our behalf (e.g., fraud prevention, identity verification, and fee collection services), as well as financial institutions, analytics providers, hosting and other technology and communications providers, payments processors, payments card associations (and other entities that are part of the payment process), credit bureaus, partners providing services on Mad Mobile’s behalf, and other entities in connection with the Services. For example, Mad Mobile may share personal information about you with third parties that provide advertising campaigns, lookalike data modeling and marketing services, contests, special offers, or other events or activities in connection with our business. Mad Mobile may also share Personal information for the purposes of auditing related to a current interaction and concurrent transactions, including, but not limited to, auditing compliance with this specification and other standards and detecting security incidents, protecting against malicious, deceptive, fraudulent, or illegal activity, and prosecuting those responsible for that activity.

To the extent you associate an account managed by third parties such as social media sites (e.g., Facebook and Twitter) with a Mad Mobile account, you authorize Mad Mobile to have access to this information and agree that Mad Mobile may collect, store and use such information in accordance with this Policy.

Aggregate and De-Identified Information. We may aggregate and/or de-identify information collected through the Services so that such information is not personally identifying under applicable law. We may use de-identified or aggregated data for any lawful purpose, including without limitation for research and marketing purposes and may also transfer such data to any third parties, including without limitation, advertisers, promotional partners, sponsors, event promoters, and/or others.

Business Transfers. Mad Mobile may share User to a subsequent third party owner, co-owner, or operator of one or more of the Services or in connection with, or during the negotiation or due diligence process of, any merger, sale of company stock or assets, financing, acquisition, divestiture, or dissolution of all or a portion of our business. In the event Mad Mobile sells certain of its assets or goes through a structural change, such as a merger, acquisition by another company, bankruptcy, insolvency, or dissolution, User Information including Personal Information may be transferred to a third party as part of such event and thereby become subject to the privacy practices of that third party, which may materially different than those of Mad Mobile.

User Generated Content. User generated content posted through the Services such as service/restaurant reviews, commentary on discussion boards or blogs, and certain social networking preferences (e.g. pages you “Like” or “Recommend”) may be accessible by other consumers and companies and may appear on other websites or web searches, and therefore this information could be read, collected, and used by others. Mad Mobile cannot ensure the privacy of any User Information included in that user generated content.

(“Cake”, “we”, “us”). “Gift Card” means any physical or electronic gift card (such electronic gift card an “eGift Card”) issued by a Restaurant Partner that you have purchased or received in connection with the Gift Card Service.

YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT THE RESTAURANT PARTNERS, NOT CAKE, ARE THE ISSUERS OF GIFT CARDS MADE AVAILABLE TO YOU, HOLD ANY FUNDS RELATED TO SUCH GIFT CARDS AND ARE SOLELY RESPONSIBLE FOR HONORING THE GIFT CARDS.

Cake provides the Gift Card Service only as a convenience and does not review, approve, monitor, endorse, warrant, or make any representations with respect to any Restaurant Partner. Each applicable Restaurant Partner is solely responsible for the products and/or services provided in connection with the use or redemption of a Gift Card. Gift Cards shall be subject to the issuing Restaurant Partner terms and conditions.

The following describes the terms and conditions that apply to the purchase, use and redemption of any Restaurant Partner Gift Cards activated through  the Cake Gift Card Service. By purchasing, using or redeeming any Gift Card or by otherwise using the Gift Card Service, you agree to these Cake Gift Card Terms together with the Privacy Policy and Cake’s Consumer Terms of Use. The term “You” as used herein means the purchaser of the gift card or recipient (where applicable or relevant). Gift Card balances may be viewed at http://giftcard.cake.net/balance by entering the Gift Card number and PIN (or other applicable credentials).

I. PURCHASE.

Once you pay for and activate a Gift Card, the funds underlying the Gift Card will be held by the applicable Restaurant Partner until used. The Gift Card balances do not expire but may be subject to unclaimed property laws.

The Gift Card(s) may be subject to maximum and minimum balance amounts and set denominations. In no case may you load more than $2,000 to any Gift Card you purchase at any time or add value to a Gift Card so that the total funds loaded on a Gift Card in any single day exceed $2,000. Cake or the Restaurant Partner(s) may change any applicable maximum and minimum amounts or denominations at any time by notifying you at the point of sale, by phone, on Cake’s website(s) or the gift card purchasing portal or site (as applicable), and such change shall not constitute an amendment to these terms and conditions. The funds underlying Gift Cards are not insured by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation (FDIC).

When you purchase an eGift Card, Cake will email the eGift Card to the email address specified by you. Cake is not liable for any delivery failures or interceptions. To purchase an eGift Card, you must provide valid payment card information. You assume all liability for and shall pay any and all charges associated with the purchase of such eGift Cards. Except to the extent otherwise required by applicable law or stated herein, you agree that all eGift Cards purchases cannot be cancelled or refunded.

 

II. USE AND RISK OF LOSS.

An activated Gift Card (i) is not replaceable if lost, intercepted or stolen unless required by law; (ii) is non-transferable; and (iii) is only redeemable for products and/or services at the designated Restaurant Partner which issued the Gift Card. Purchases will be deducted/redeemed from the Gift Card balance at the applicable Restaurant Partner until the value reaches zero. If you wish to use the Gift Card in a split tender transaction, the restaurant must be notified of the amount to be deducted from the Gift Card. The Gift Card balance(s) will be available online at Cake Gift Card account at http://giftcard.cake.net/balance.

No use or service fee is charged to you by Cake for any Gift Card and no gift card has an expiration date. A Gift Card may not be redeemed or refunded for cash except as required by law. Cake and its Restaurant Partners reserve the right to limit use of a Gift Card if there is reason to believe that the use is fraudulent or otherwise unlawful. Any Gift Card may be canceled or revoked at any time (provided that outstanding balance on the Gift Card is made available to you (eGift Card balances may be credited to the payment card account used for the purchase)) without prior notice unless prohibited by law. Resale of Gift Cards is prohibited. Gift Cards shall be subject to Restaurant Partners’ applicable terms and conditions.

 

IV. BALANCE CORRECTIONS.

You should monitor your Gift Card balance(s) regularly. No Restaurant Partner(s) (nor Cake) shall have no liability for any accounting error unless you provide Restaurant Partner (or Cake) notice within 45 days of the date of the transaction in question. Restaurant Partner and Cake reserve the right to make corrections to the balance of any Gift Card in the event of accounting error.

 

V. AMENDMENTS AND CANCELLATION.

Except to the extent not permitted by applicable law Cake may amend these terms at any time, including any rights or obligations you or we may have. As permitted by applicable law, any change will become effective at the time the amended terms are posted at our website or as otherwise stated in a notice to you.

Subject to applicable law, Cake and its Restaurant Partners may suspend or discontinue the terms of, and revoke or limit any or all of the rights granted to you related to Gift Cards issued as part of the Cake Gift Card Service at any time without notice or liability. Termination may result from fraudulent or unauthorized use of any Gift Card.

 

VI. RESTAURANT PARTNERS AND RESTAURANT PARTNER LIABILITY.

The balance on any Gift Card is solely the liability of the applicable Restaurant Partner. You agree that the applicable Restaurant Partner, not Cake, is the issuer of Gift Cards and that the applicable Restaurant Partner is solely responsible and liable for honoring such Gift Cards or the placement of any restrictions on such Gift Card. You agree that the applicable Restaurant Partner shall be fully responsible for any and all damages, claims, and costs (“Gift Card Claims”), related to a Gift Card that you purchase, receive  or acquire, caused in whole or in part by the Restaurant Partner or its products and services, as well as for any liability under laws, including but not limited to, any laws regulating gift certificates, gift cards, and stored value cards, including but not limited to unclaimed property liability arising from unredeemed or partially redeemed Gift Cards or by the imposition of any terms and conditions by a Restaurant Partner on its Gift Cards that violate any applicable laws or regulations. You further agree that Cake is not responsible or liable for any Restaurant Partners that go out of business or refuse to honor a gift card and you agree to  indemnify and hold harmless the Cake Entities (as defined in the Consumer Terms of Use) against any and all claims arising from your purchase and/or use of a Gift Card unless directly arising from the negligence of Cake. You agree that you purchase and/or use Gift Cards at your own risk and shall not hold Cake and Cake Entities for any act or omission of any Restaurant Partner.

By using the Gift Card Service or using or attempting to use a Gift Card, you warrant  that you will comply with these terms and all applicable laws  and that neither the Gift Cards nor the Gift Card Service  will be used in any manner that is unlawful, misleading, deceptive, unfair  or to defame, threaten or harass others.

Except as set forth in these terms, you must settle any disputes, and any other issues relating to Gift Cards directly with the applicable Restaurant Partner.

In the event more than one person introduces the same customer to the Company then the Referral Reward will be payable to the person who submitted the referral first-in-time. “Affiliate” means a referred person that is a franchisee, parent or subsidiary company, or additional merchant location of an existing Company customer (and where Referrer is an owner of or controls such customer).

How It Works

To participate, fill out the lead form at https://resources.madmobile.com/refer.

If the referred customer registers for and uses a paid Cake branded point-of-sale or Guest Manager services account in a live restaurant environment for a period of 2 continuous months (the “Qualifying Period”), the Referral Award will be paid to the Referrer in the month that follows the completion of the Qualifying Period.  Payment shall be sent to the contact address provided by the Referrer.

If Referrer is an employee of the referred customer, then the Referral Reward takes the form of a discount on the prevailing Activation Fee for the applicable service applied to the account of the referred customer.

A Referrer who qualifies for a Referral Award must provide the Company with a W9 Form by emailing it to support@trycake.com. Delays in payment as a result of failure to submit a W9 are not the responsibility of the Company. You are responsible for any and all tax reporting and tax liability related to any Referral Awards received.

Qualification of Rewards

Referral Awards are not increased or in any way calculated based on the quantity of subscription accounts, services or merchant locations which the referred customer signs up for. For example, if a referred customer signs up for more than one POS account the amount of the Referral Award is not increased. Further, additional Referral Awards are not awarded if a referred customer’s parent or subsidiary companies or franchisees subsequently sign up for a Cake account or if a referred customer becomes a Referrer.

The Company reserves the right to disqualify anyone, void, cancel or recover Referral Awards, and contact legal authorities (including law enforcement) if it discovers any person is attempting to tamper with the referral process or the operation of the Referral Program or violating these Terms or undermining the fairness, integrity or legitimate operation of the Referral Program in any way.

As between you and us, all Company decisions with respect to the Referral Program are final and binding, except where prohibited, including decisions as to whether a Referral Award is valid, when and if to terminate the Referral Program, and whether, if at all, to change the program.
