This agreement (the “Agreement”) is a contract between you (“you”) and Yumm (“Yumm”, “us”, “we”, “our” or the “Company”) concerning the conditions associated

“Products”) (the “Meal Delivery Service”) made available through your use of the website
“yumm.ca”, any subdomain and any other platform (including any mobile applications)
in relation thereof (the “Website” and together with the Products and the Meal Delivery Service,
the “Service”). Please read all of the following terms and conditions carefully before using the
Service.
By accessing the Website, using the Service or selecting “I Agree” upon creating your Yumm
Account (as defined below), you agree to all the terms and conditions stated in the Agreement.
If, at any time, you do not or cannot agree to the terms of the Agreement, you must cease using
the Service by cancelling your Subscription in the manner described herein.

which the Consumer Protection Act (Québec) applies.

Wednesday, or (ii) Saturday before midnight if your delivery is scheduled on Thursday and
Friday, otherwise you will receive the Service as scheduled, (3) the amount you will be charged
per week may change if you modify your plan selection, benefit from a Special Offer or the

of the Service is to provide you with the ingredients and instructions to prepare a variety of recipes which change from week to week; and (6) to receive promotional information regarding the Service.
All prices are shown in Canadian dollars (and are exclusive of applicable taxes).
We accept no liability to complete any transaction which cannot be cleared by our payment
processor, whether because there are no sufficient funds available on your credit card or
otherwise. If such situation would occur, you will receive an error message and the transaction
will be denied. Moreover, we may suspend your Yumm Account and contact you so you can
provide us with valid alternative credit card information. Such suspension shall not relieve you
from your obligation to pay any fees owed to us.
Please consult your Yumm Account for more information on the pricing and features of our
different Subscription plans. You acknowledge being bound by the terms and conditions of the
Subscription plan you have selected.
Return Policy
If you are dissatisfied with any Product you have received in your box, please contact us at
[email protected] within five (5) days of receiving your order. We will provide a Credit
(as defined below) to your Yumm Account for the Products you are not satisfied with. We
may require you keep the item or provide photographic documentation of the item you are
dissatisfied with.
You are responsible for inspecting items upon their delivery for any damage or other issues
including but not limited to the freshness of the Products you receive. Ingredients should be
delivered to you in a cool and refrigerated condition, below 4°C. Although unlikely, if you have
any reason to believe that a Product in your delivery is not suitable for consumption, please
contact us immediately at [email protected]
Delivery
We do not currently deliver meal ingredients to every region in Canada. You can find out if we
ship to your area by signing up and you will be notified once we start shipping to your specified
address.
Yumm generally uses third party services for shipping and therefore all Products purchased
are made pursuant to a shipment contract whereby the title to and the risk of loss of such
products passes to you upon delivery of the products to you. Following the delivery, the
condition and consumption of the Products are at your own risk, and you are solely responsible
for the proper and safe washing, handling, preparation, storage, cooking, use and consumption of
the Products. Yumm is not responsible or liable for any action(s) or inaction(s) of such third
parties and/or its agents, and shall not be liable for any delay or loss of any kind, which occurs
while a shipment is in custody or control of a third party.
Shipping times and dates are estimates and actuals may vary due to weather conditions and other
factors, some of which may be outside of our control. If there are events beyond our control that interfere with our ability to deliver the Products to you on your scheduled delivery day, we will
attempt to deliver your Products on the following day. In the event that we remain unable to
deliver your Products on the day which follows your original scheduled delivery day, we will
issue you a Credit for the purchase price of that delivery. You are responsible for the purchase
price of the Products if we are unable to make your delivery at your confirmed address at the
specified time due to reasons caused by you.
We consider the Products delivered when the third party courier service arrives, and surrenders
custody of the Products in accordance with the delivery instructions you have specified in your
Yumm Account. We will presume that any individual present at the location specified in the
delivery instructions is authorized to receive the delivery on your behalf. If there is no individual
present at the location specified in the delivery instructions we will leave the package unattended
at the address or location you have specified. You are responsible for insuring the clarity and
completeness of the delivery instructions provided to us.
You are responsible for inspecting all Products you receive from us for any damage or other
issues upon their delivery to you. You are solely responsible for determining the freshness of the
Products you receive. You should use a thermometer to confirm that the internal temperature of
any meat, poultry, fish, seafood or other perishable ingredients are in cool and refrigerated
condition, below 4°C. Should the Products not be fresh upon their delivery to you, please let us
know and we will handle the matter in accordance with our return policy.
Our boxes include insulated liners and iced gel packs that keep your ingredients cold and fresh
for up to 24 hours after your delivery arrives. You are responsible for the Products as of the moment when the courier
gives up custody of the Products in accordance with the instructions in your Yumm Account.
You are responsible for a Product degradation as a result of any events (including the passage of
time) after the delivery of the Products. Please keep in mind season and temperatures in your
area at the time of delivery and plan deliveries and storage accordingly.
Upon reception and following inspection of any delivered Products, you must immediately
refrigerate all perishable items and are responsible for following refrigeration, food safety, safe
food handling instructions and food consumption recommendations from the Ministry of
Agriculture, Fisheries and Food of Quebec (MAPAQ) (or in Ontario, Ministry of Agriculture,
Food and Rural Affairs, OMAFRA) & Canadian Food Inspection Agency (CFIA) to reduce risks
of foodborne illnesses including such recommendation for at-risk groups (i.e. for pregnant
women, young children, elderly and individuals with compromised immune systems). You
should use a food thermometer to ensure that all meat, poultry, fish, seafood and other applicable
items are cooked at recommended internal temperatures.
We may from time to time designate certain locations as “pick-up points” where you can collect
the Products. Should you chose to receive your Products at a pick-up point, we will consider the
products delivered when they are made available to you for pick-up at the specified pick-up
point. You are responsible for collecting your Products within the timeframe specified in your
shipping confirmation.
Special Offers
We may occasionally offer new or existing customers a promotional offer in connection with
their use or potential use of the Services or the purchase of Products (each a “Special Offer”).
The terms of a Special Offer shall be contained or otherwise transmitted therewith and otherwise
governed accordingly. From time to time, a Special Offer may consist of a promotion for free
meal(s) upon the opening of Yumm Account or re-subscribing to a Subscription (a “Free
Meal Special Offer”).
Should you take advantage of a Free Meal Special Offer,
and such Free Meal Special Offer ends, you acknowledge and agree that we (or our third-party
payment processor) will begin billing your designated payment method on a
recurring basis for your Subscription (plus any applicable taxes) for as long as
your Subscription continues, unless you cancel your Subscription prior to the end of the Free
Meal Special Offer. Instructions for canceling your Subscription are described in herein. Please
note that you may not receive a notice from us that your free meal special offer has ended or that
the fully paid portion of your Subscription has begun.
Account Credits
As a result of certain situations, we may issue you credits of a promotional value that will be
automatically applied to future purchases made by way of your Yumm Account or otherwise
applied to your Subscription, as applicable (the “Credits”). Credits, are promotional in nature,
are not transferable, may only be redeemed as instructed by us and are not exchangeable for cash
or other property.
Credits only remain available if you maintain both an active Yumm Account and an active
Subscription. Cancelling your Subscription or Yumm Account will result in the cancellation
of your Credits. You may only redeem Credits after they are applied to your Yumm Account.
Any decision made by us regarding a dispute as to your Credit balance is final.
Termination
You may cancel your Yumm Account or your Subscription at any time by accessing your Member Area or contacting our
Member Happiness Team by email ([email protected]). The Company also reserves
the right to suspend or end the Service if you in breach of the Agreement, or for another serious
reason.
