1. Who we are
The operator of the FoodPrints app is:
Anna Thumann and Moritz Garger (private individuals), Bäckerstrasse 51, 8004 Zürich, Switzerland
support@foodprints.app
(hereinafter "FoodPrints", "we")
These Terms of Use govern your use of the app. Our Privacy Policy applies in addition.
2. What the app does
2.1 The app shows you offers ("specials") from participating restaurants and lets you redeem them at the restaurant.
2.2 We are an intermediary. The contract for the restaurant's service, that is food, drinks or a discount, is concluded exclusively between you and the restaurant.
2.3 We do not operate a restaurant, provide no catering services, and owe you no special performance.
3. Use is free for you
3.1 Using the app and redeeming specials is free for you. You pay FoodPrints no charge, fee or membership.
3.2 We do not issue vouchers, stored-value cards, credit or any other means of payment. A special is not a security and not a means of payment; it is an offer from the restaurant to you.
3.3 A special has no cash value. It cannot be paid out, exchanged for money or transferred, unless the restaurant provides otherwise.
3.4 What you consume at the restaurant you pay directly to the restaurant. This payment does not run through the app.
4. Account and age
4.1 An account is required to use the app. Please provide accurate information.
4.2 You must be at least 16 years old. Statutory age limits apply to alcohol-related offers; the restaurant checks these on site.
4.3 Your account is personal. Please do not share your credentials.
5. Redeeming specials
5.1 The restaurant sets the conditions, validity period and availability of a special. They are shown with the respective special. Please read them before your visit.
5.2 A special is redeemed by confirming it at the restaurant via the function provided in the app. It is then considered used.
5.3 Specials may be limited in availability and may end without prior notice. There is no claim to the availability of a particular special.
5.4 Abusive use, such as faking redemptions or creating multiple accounts, entitles us to block you.
6. If something goes wrong at the restaurant
6.1 If a special is not granted as announced, or if there is a defect in the service, please contact the restaurant. Your claims are against the restaurant.
6.2 We are happy to help and will pass your feedback to the restaurant. However, we are not a party to that contract and cannot decide on it.
6.3 Repeated complaints may lead us to remove a restaurant from the platform.
7. Promotional content
Some specials are promoted by influencers. Paid content must be marked as advertising by them. We contractually require influencers to do so, but we do not publish their content ourselves and do not review it in advance.
8. Your content
If you publish reviews, photos or comments, you grant us the non-exclusive right to display these within the app. You remain the owner of your rights. Please do not publish anything unlawful, offensive or misleading, or anything to which you hold no rights.
9. Availability
We strive for reliable operation but do not owe uninterrupted availability. Maintenance, faults and further development may lead to restrictions.
10. Liability
10.1 We are liable to you for intent and gross negligence. For slight negligence we are liable only for the breach of essential contractual obligations and limited to the typically foreseeable damage.
10.2 We are not liable for the services of the restaurants, for the content of influencers, or for the content of other users.
10.3 Liability for personal injury, liability under the Product Liability Act and other mandatory statutory liability remain unaffected in any case.
11. Data protection
How we process your data is described in our Privacy Policy at https://foodprints.app/privacy.
12. Termination
12.1 You can delete your account at any time in the settings.
12.2 We may block or delete your account in the event of a serious or repeated breach of these Terms. For minor breaches we will notify you beforehand.
13. Changes
We may change these Terms. We will inform you at least 30 days in advance in the app or by email. If you continue to use the app after that, the changed Terms apply. If you do not agree, you can delete your account.
14. Governing law and jurisdiction
Swiss law applies. The place of jurisdiction is Zürich. Mandatory places of jurisdiction for consumers remain reserved; in particular, you may sue us at your place of residence.
