These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of the FROMHOM services, including our mobile applications (the “Services”), and are entered into by you and LYVE Inc. (d/b/a FROMHOM), a Delaware corporation (“FROMHOM”).
By using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms and acknowledge our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, and share information.
The FROMHOM Services constitute a communications platform for facilitating order delivery between customers who wish to order certain products from selected home chefs, and individuals (“Shoppers”) seeking to help customers by picking out and delivering those products to customers, and shoppers are considred as independant contractors and they are not considred as employees to LYVE Inc.
When you use the Services to place an order for certain products, you authorize the purchase and delivery of those products to you by one or more Shoppers from a chef location. You acknowledge and agree that the Shopper acts as your agent in carrying out the Shopper service. You agree that your purchase is being made with the home chef, and that title to any goods passes to you when they are purchased at the chef location.
You also acknowledge and agree that, unless expressly provided otherwise in these Terms or a separate agreement between you and FROMHOM, FROMHOM does not form any employment or agency relationship with you and does not hold title to any goods that are delivered to you by a Shopper.
1. Use of the Services
FROMHOM grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable license to use the Services for their intended purposes subject to your compliance with these Terms and our policies. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, or lease any part of the Services.
Unless such restriction is prohibited by law or you have our written permission, you may not reverse engineer or attempt to extract the source code of the Services. You may only access the Services through the interfaces that we provide for that purpose (for example, you may not “scrape” the Services through automated means or “frame” any part of our Services), and you may not interfere or attempt to disrupt our Services.
If you are using FROMHOM on behalf of a business or other entity, you represent and warrant that you have the necessary authority to bind that business or entity to these Terms and that you are agreeing to these Terms on behalf of that business or entity.

If you have a dispute with one or more of the Shoppers, you agree to release FROMHOM (including our affiliates, and each of our respective officers, directors, employees, agents, shareholders, chef partners, licensors, and suppliers) from claims, demands and damages of every kind and nature, known and unknown, suspected and unsuspected, disclosed and undisclosed, arising out of or in any way connected to such disputes with the Shoppers or to your use of the Services.
4. Limitation of Liability
IN NO EVENT SHALL FROMHOM (INCLUDING OUR AFFILIATES, AND EACH OF OUR RESPECTIVE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, SHAREHOLDERS, CHEF PARTNERS, LICENSORS, AND SUPPLIERS) BE LIABLE TO YOU FOR ANY INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, PUNITIVE, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR INDIRECT DAMAGES (INCLUDING, BUT NOT LIMITED TO, DAMAGES FOR DELETION, CORRUPTION, LOSS OF DATA, LOSS OF PROGRAMS, FAILURE TO STORE ANY INFORMATION OR OTHER CONTENT MAINTAINED OR TRANSMITTED BY THE SERVICES, SERVICE INTERRUPTIONS, OR FOR THE COST OF PROCUREMENT OF SUBSTITUTE SERVICES) ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE THE SERVICES, OR THESE TERMS, HOWEVER ARISING INCLUDING NEGLIGENCE, EVEN IF WE OR OUR AGENTS OR REPRESENTATIVES KNOW OR HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

5. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless FROMHOM and its officers, directors, employees, agents and affiliates (each, an "Indemnified Party") from and against any losses, claims, actions, costs, damages, penalties, fines and expenses, including without limitation attorneys' and experts’ fees and expenses, that may be incurred by an Indemnified Party arising out of, relating to or resulting from your unauthorized use of the Services or from any breach by you of these Terms, including without limitation any actual or alleged violation of any law, rule or regulation.
6. Disputes & Arbitration
If you have a dispute with FROMHOM, you agree to contact us first and attempt to work it out amicably.
If the order is contaminated, and you get ill with food poisoning, then you will have to complain the chef, as they are the preparation and packaging provider. Fromhom is not responsible for food contaminated, as they don't handle, or prepare the food consumption.
For residents of the United States, you agree to the following mandatory arbitration provisions:
Mandatory Arbitration: If we’re unable to work out a solution amicably, both you and FROMHOM agree to final and binding arbitration as the sole method of resolving any disputes, claims, or causes of actions arising out of your use of the Services or these Terms.
CLASS ACTION WAIVER: TO THE EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, ALL CLAIMS MUST BE BROUGHT IN THE PARTIES' INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, COLLECTIVE ACTION, OR NON-PAGA REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING (COLLECTIVELY “CLASS ACTION WAIVER”). THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS OR ENGAGE IN ANY CLASS ARBITRATION. YOU AGREE THAT, BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND FROMHOM ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION.
In any lawsuit in which (1) the complaint is filed as a class action, collective action or non-PAGA representative action; and (2) the civil court of competent jurisdiction in which the complaint was filed finds the Class Action Waiver is unenforceable (and such finding is confirmed by appellate review if review is sought), the Class Action Waiver shall be severable from this Agreement and in such instances, the class action, collective action and/or non-PAGA representative action must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not as a class, collective or non-PAGA representative arbitration.
PAGA WAIVER: TO THE EXTENT PERMISSIBLE BY LAW, THERE WILL BE NO RIGHT OR AUTHORITY FOR ANY DISPUTE TO BE BROUGHT, HEARD, OR ARBITRATED ON A GROUP BASIS OR IN ANY ACTION IN WHICH A PARTY SEEKS TO REPRESENT OTHER INDIVIDUAL(S) IN A PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION (“PAGA WAIVER”). PAGA CLAIMS MAY ONLY BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS.
In any lawsuit in which (1) the complaint is filed as a private attorney general action seeking to represent any individual(s) other than the named plaintiff; and (2) the civil court of competent jurisdiction in which the complaint was filed finds the PAGA Waiver is unenforceable (and such finding is confirmed by appellate review if review is sought), the PAGA Waiver shall be severable from this Agreement and in such instances, the private attorney general action must be litigated in a civil court of competent jurisdiction and not as a private attorney general arbitration.
Notwithstanding any other clause contained in this Agreement, any claim that all or part of the Class Action Waiver or PAGA Waiver is invalid, unenforceable, unconscionable, void or voidable may be determined only by a court of competent jurisdiction and not by an arbitrator. The Class Action Waiver and PAGA Waiver shall be severable when a dispute is filed as an individual action and severance is necessary to ensure that the individual action proceeds in arbitration.
Opt-out of Mandatory Arbitration: You can decline this mandatory arbitration provision within 30 days of accepting these Terms by emailing us at [email protected] with your first and last name and stating your intent to opt-out of the arbitration provision. Note that opting out of this arbitration provision does not affect any other part of these Terms, including the provisions regarding controlling law or in which courts any disputes must be brought.
Arbitration Procedures and Location: The arbitration shall be administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Rules in effect at the time the arbitration demand is made. The current rules, effective July 1, 2014, can be found here: http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-comprehensive-arbitration/. JAMS arbitration rules can be found here: http://www.jamsadr.com/rules-clauses/. In the event of any conflict between the rules and this Agreement, this Agreement shall apply. The Parties agree to submit to the jurisdiction of a single neutral arbitrator selected in accordance with the JAMS Comprehensive Rules.
The arbitration will be held in the United States county where you live or work, Washington, DC, or any other location we mutually agree upon in writing.
7. Termination
You can stop using the Services at any time and without notice to us. Similarly, we may terminate access to the Services to you or any other users or stop offering the Service at any time without notice. In the event of Termination, all provisions described in the Terms and Conditions continue to apply to you.
8. Refund and Cancellation Policy
At FROMHOM, our top priority is to ensure our customers' complete satisfaction with their order. If you are not pleased with your order, please contact our support team through the app. We will look into the reported issue and credit your FROMHOM account as needed.
You can cancel an order you made immediately after placing the order as long as it has not been confirmed by the chef. Once the chef confirms your order and starts preparing it, you can no longer cancel your order.
9. Replacement Policy
Sometimes you may order items from our app that are not available. We attempt to call you and ask you if you would like to replace them with another item, or cancel the order if you are not satisfied with any of the available alternatives.
If you receive a wrong or damaged item, please let us know and we will coordinate with our partner chef to send you a replacement or we will credit your account with the item’s value.
10. Controlling Law
These Terms will be governed by the laws of Lebanon, Beirut, without respect to its conflicts of laws principles.
11. Entire Agreement and Severability
These Terms, subject to any amendments, modifications, or additional agreements you enter into with FROMHOM, shall constitute the entire agreement between you and FROMHOM with respect to the Services and any use of the Services. If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid by a court competent jurisdiction, that provision only will be limited to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
12. No Waiver
FROMHOM’s failure to monitor or enforce a provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of its right to do so in the future with respect to that provision, any other provision, or these Terms as a whole.
13. Assignment
You may not assign any of your rights, licenses, or obligations under these Terms. Any such attempt at assignment by you shall be void. FROMHOM may assign its rights, licenses, and obligations under these Terms without limitation.
14. Changes to the Terms
We may make changes to these Terms from time to time. When we do so, we will post the most current version of the Terms on our website. By continuing to use or access the Services after the revised Terms come into effect, you agree to be bound by the revised Terms. At our discretion as to whether a revision to the Terms is material, we may notify you about a revision of the Terms in some way (for example, by email or a posting on our website).
15. Copyright Policy
FROMHOM respects the intellectual property rights of others and has implemented a copyright policy in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and other relevant laws.
