3. Applicability

1. The present General Terms and Conditions for Customers are only applicable to the Service. Takeaway.com is not responsible for the Offer. As the case may be, the general terms and conditions of the Restaurant shall be applicable to the Offer in addition.
2. By placing an Order the Customer directly concludes an Agreement with the Restaurant for delivery of the Offer selected by the Customer. The Customer is bound by the Order and will not be entitled to a refund except in case of cancellation allowed by the Restaurant pursuant to article 6 below.

4. The Offer

1. Takeaway.com publishes the Offer on behalf of the Restaurants on the Platform, in accordance with the Restaurant information supplied by the Restaurants. Takeaway.com shall not accept any responsibility or liability for the contents of the Offer and the Restaurant information on the Platform. The Restaurant may use ingredients and additives of meals and drinks, that could cause allergies and intolerances. If a Customer is allergic to any foodstuffs, we advise to contact the Restaurant by telephone for current allergen information before placing an Order.
2. Takeaway.com presents all Restaurant information in such a way that it is clear to the Customer what his rights and obligations are after having accepted the Offer.
3. Takeaway.com shall not accept any liability for Platform availability.

5. The Agreement

1. The Agreement is effective as from the moment the Customer finalizes the Order by clicking the 'Buy now' button during the process of placing an Order through the Platform.
2. After receipt of the Order, Takeaway.com will electronically confirm the Order to the Customer.
3. The Agreement can only be executed by the Restaurant if the Customer provides correct and complete contact and address information when placing the Order. The Customer is obliged to immediately report any inaccuracies in the payment data supplied or mentioned to Takeaway.com or the Restaurant.
4. With respect to information on the status of his Order, after having placed the Order the Customer is required to be available by telephone or email (as indicated when placing the Order) for both the Restaurant and Takeaway.com.
5. If the Customer decides to have the Order delivered, the Customer must be present at the delivery address indicated by the Customer in order to receive the Order items. If the Customer is not present at the delivery address when the Order is delivered, and the Order is being delivered by Takeaway.com (rather than the Restaurant itself) Takeaway.com will make reasonable efforts to contact the Customer in order to determine where to leave the Order. If Takeaway.com is unable to contact the Customer, Takeaway.com may leave the Order at a reasonable location outside, close to the delivery address. Takeaway.com will not be responsible for the Order (including the quality or safety of the contents of the Order when the Customer finds it) after delivering the Order. Please note that when the Restaurant is delivering the Order itself, rather than using Takeaway.com's delivery services, the Restaurant will decide whether to leave the Order outside the delivery address if the Customer is not present.
6. If the Restaurant that you place your Order with receives delivery services provided by Takeaway.com, Takeaway.com may charge the Customer a delivery fee and/or a service charge. The delivery fee and service charge applying to the Order may vary depending on a number of factors, including location, the Restaurant selected, and the value of the menu items in the Order, but these costs will always be shown on the Platform before a Customer places an Order. A receipt for the delivery fee and service charge can be requested with Takeaway.com.
7. If the Customer decides to collect the Order, he should be present at the selected time at the collection location of the Restaurant, as indicated in the confirmation email, text message or on the Takeaway.com website.
8. Upon ordering as well as when delivering or collecting Orders containing alcoholic products or other products with an age limit (''restricted items''), the Customer may, in line with the applicable laws and regulations be required to provide evidence to the Restaurant and/or Takeaway.com to identify him or herself adequately. If the Customer cannot identify himself, does not meet the minimum age requirements or other applicable requirements with regard to the restricted items, the restricted items of the Order will not be delivered, and the Restaurant and/or Takeaway.com are also free to refuse the Order in its entirety. If any products are not delivered pursuant to this section, the Customer may be charged a cancellation fee, which cancellation fee will consist of at least the value of the restricted items from the respective Order.
9. Takeaway.com does not accept any liability relating to the execution of the Agreement.
10. After placing the Order, the Customer can upon his sole discretion choose to tip a courier via the available online payment methods.
11. The Tip is intended for the couriers and cannot be considered as payment for services of Takeaway.com. Takeaway.com will thereby only act as a trustee and transferor of the tip amounts.
12. Takeaway.com will transfer the Tip to the couriers in case those are directly engaged via Takeaway.com. In case a courier is not engaged via Takeaway.com but directly by the Restaurant, Takeaway.com transfers the Tip to the Restaurant and obliges the Restaurant to pay-out the Tip to the courier. Takeaway.com cannot guarantee or be held responsible for the transfer of the Tip from the Restaurant to the courier.
13. After the Customer has received a confirmation of placing the Tip, the Tip cannot be refunded or returned.

6. Dissolution of the Agreement and cancellation of the Order

1. Considering the perishable nature of the Offer, the Customer shall not be entitled to dissolve the Agreement. Orders cannot be cancelled by the Customer with Takeaway.com. Cancellation of the Order with the Restaurant is only possible by the Customer if the Restaurant explicitly indicates that Cancellation of the Order by the Customer is possible.
2. The Restaurant is entitled to cancel the Order, e.g., if the Offer is no longer available, if the Customer has provided an incorrect or inoperative telephone number or other contact information, or in case of force majeure.
3. If the Customer places a false Order (for example by providing incorrect contact information, by not paying or by not being present on the delivery or collection location in order to receive the Order) or otherwise fails to comply with his obligations pursuant to the Agreement, Takeaway.com shall be entitled to refuse any future Orders from such Customer.
4. Takeaway.com is entitled to refuse Orders and cancel Agreements on behalf of the Restaurant, if there is reasonable doubt about the correctness or authenticity of the Order or contact information. If the Customer places Orders that appear as false or fraudulent, Takeaway.com may report this to the police.

7. Payment

1. At the moment the Agreement is concluded in accordance with the provisions of article 5.1 of these General Terms and Conditions for Customers, Customer is obliged to pay the Restaurant for the Order. The Customer may fulfil this payment obligation by using an online payment method through the Platform or by payment to the Restaurant at the door or at the collection location.
2. Subject to the provisions of article 6 of these General Terms and Conditions for Customers, the (partial) reimbursement of an online payment shall only be possible if the Order cannot be delivered (entirely). The reimbursement shall always be made into the same account as the one from which the payment has been made. Depending on the payment method used by the Customer, the processing of the reimbursement will take a maximum of 10 working days.
3. The Restaurant has authorized Takeaway.com to accept the Customer’s online payment on behalf of the Restaurant.

8. Complaints settlement

1. Complaints from the Customer about the Offer, the Order or the performance of the Agreement, are to be filed with for receipt by the Restaurant.
