4. Detailed Service Provisions and Roles
4.1 Nature of the Platform. We are a technology provider, not a restaurant, food preparation entity, delivery company, or common carrier. All Restaurants and Delivery Services available through the Service operate as independent third-party providers.
- No Agency: Delivery Services and Restaurants are not employees, actual agents, or apparent agents of Ours.
- No Liability for Preparation: We are not responsible for food safety, quality, preparation, or compliance with menu disclosure laws (such as calorie or allergen labeling).
- No Liability for Accuracy: We do not independently verify and are not liable for images, descriptors, or pricing provided by Restaurants. As specified in Section 13.2, any AI-generated descriptions or imagery provided through the Service are for illustrative purposes and do not override the Restaurant’s sole responsibility for food safety, quality, and allergen disclosures.
4.2 Account Types & Responsibility.
A. Account Types: The available methods for placing an order are determined on a per-Restaurant basis. Depending on the Restaurant’s configuration, a Restaurant Customer’s checkout options may include:
-
Required Accounts. To access the administrative features of the Service, personalized accounts with a unique username and password must be created.
-
Guest Checkout: Where enabled, a Restaurant Customer may place an order without creating a permanent account (i.e., as a guest). By proceeding as a guest the Restaurant Customer remains subject to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
-
Account Registration & Single Sign-On (SSO): Restaurant Customers may register via a traditional email/password or via third-party providers (e.g., "Sign in with Google" or "Apple ID").
-
Authorization: By using SSO, a Restaurant Customer authorizes us to access and store profile information (such as their name and email) as permitted by the provider.
-
Consent: "Continue with Google/Apple" or similar SSO buttons constitutes a Restaurant Customer’s electronic signature and agreement to these Terms. Marketing consent is handled separately; while a Restaurant Customer will receive transactional order updates via their SSO-linked email, they will only receive promotional offers if they affirmatively opt-in via the checkboxes provided at the time of account creation or checkout.
-
B. Account Responsibility: Restaurants and Restaurant Customers are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of their account credentials. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use or security breach. We are not responsible for any liabilities, losses, or damages arising from the unauthorized use of your username, password, or account.
4.3 Coupons and Promotions. We provide the tools for Restaurants to enable coupons and promotions, but the Restaurant is entirely responsible for their activation, management, and fulfillment. Any disputes regarding coupons and promotions must be taken up directly with the Restaurant.
4.4 Loyalty Program. If a Restaurant enables loyalty features, a Restaurant Customer’s participation is governed by the Loyalty Program Terms & Conditions https://order.rushmyfood.com/villaggio/loyalty-program, which are incorporated herein by reference. You as a Restaurant Customer acknowledge that points have no monetary value, and all disputes regarding rewards must be resolved directly with the Restaurant.
5. Relationship Disclaimers
Although we provide and manage the online ordering technology, we are not a party to any transaction between a Restaurant Customer and a Restaurant. Consequently, we are NOT responsible for the following:
- Fulfillment & Accuracy: The fulfillment, quality, or correctness of an order.
- Product Authenticity: The "brand name" status, origin, or authenticity of any menu items. We do not verify if products listed by any Restaurant are authorized for sale or are "knock-offs." Any claims regarding counterfeit or misrepresented goods must be directed to the Restaurant.
- Communications: Order status updates, customer service, or any marketing communications received from the Restaurant.
- Data Privacy: The Restaurant’s handling of personal information, which is subject to their own privacy practices.
- Refunds: Issuing refunds. We cannot provide a refund unless the Restaurant specifically initiates the process.

- Third-Party Reliance: We are not responsible for the actions, inactions, errors, or omissions of these Delivery Services, their drivers, or their systems.
- No Control: Each Restaurant Customer agrees and understands that food quality, delivery timing, and service execution, whether handled by a third-party fleet or the Restaurant directly, are outside of our control.
- Independent Contractors: Delivery Services are provided by independent contractors or employees of the Restaurant; they are not agents, or employees of Ours.
- Direct Contact Required: If you (as a Restaurant Customer) have any question or issue regarding food preparation, a pricing error, or delivery execution, you must contact the Restaurant directly.
6. Age-Restricted Goods & Compliance
To ensure the legal operation of alcohol or tobacco sales via the Platform, each Restaurant agrees to the following:
- Seller of Record: For alcohol and tobacco sales, Restaurant is the sole "Seller of Record" and warrants that it possesses all valid permits and licenses required by law to sell and deliver age-restricted products.
- Duty to Verify: Restaurant (or its designated agent/driver) is solely responsible for the physical verification of a valid government-issued ID and the assessment of the recipient’s sobriety at the point of handover.

- Email Consent (Soft Opt-in): We utilize a "soft opt-in" model for email marketing. By providing an email address during the checkout process, Restaurant Customer is establishing a business relationship that authorizes us to send relevant updates and offers from that Restaurant and Us. Note: Canadian residents are subject to Canada's Anti-Spam Legislation (CASL). Email marketing to Canadian residents is conducted on the basis of implied consent arising from a commercial transaction, which expires two years from the date of the last transaction. Express consent may be sought prior to expiry.
- SMS Marketing (Explicit Opt-In Required): Notwithstanding the above, We will only send marketing text messages (SMS/MMS) where a Restaurant Customer has provided express written consent (e.g., checking an unchecked box at checkout). Providing such consent is not a condition of purchase.

- Confirmation: Upon opting out, Restaurant Customers will receive a single confirmation message. No further marketing messages will be sent following that confirmation.
- Do Not Call Registry: We scrub subscriber lists against the National Do Not Call Registry prior to sending. Restaurant Customers who have provided prior express written consent to receive SMS marketing from a specific Restaurant program are contacted on the basis of that consent, which constitutes a valid exception to DNC registration under applicable law.
- Reactivation & Transactional Alerts: Placing a new order may reactivate transactional messaging (e.g., receipts or delivery updates) for that specific order regardless of marketing status. Transactional messages are not marketing communications and are not affected by an SMS or email marketing opt-out.
- Personalization & Withdrawal: Marketing communications may be tailored based on a Restaurant Customer’s purchase history and interactions with the Service. A Restaurant Customer may withdraw consent at any time via the "unsubscribe" link in any email or by replying STOP to any SMS. Opting out of marketing does not affect transactional order updates (e.g., receipts or delivery alerts).
- Restaurant-Direct Marketing: The Service provides tools that allow Restaurants to communicate with Restaurant Customers directly via SMS. Restaurants using Our SMS marketing tools are contractually required to comply with all applicable federal, state, and provincial telemarketing and anti-spam laws, including the TCPA and, where applicable, CASL. We do not control the content of messages composed by Restaurants, but reserves the right to suspend or terminate any Restaurant's access to SMS marketing tools for non-compliance with applicable law or Our Acceptable Use Policy. Any consent provided directly to a Restaurant outside of Our platform is a direct agreement between the Restaurant Customer and that Restaurant. Restaurant Customers who believe they have received a non-compliant message from a Restaurant should contact us at todd@puruz.com .

- Consent Records and Retention: Records of SMS marketing consent, including opt-in method, timestamp, and consent language version, are retained in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable law.

- Limitation of Liability: Our liability in connection with marketing communications is subject to the limitations set forth in Section 17 of these Terms.
