If such situation would occur, you will receive an error message and the transaction will be denied. Moreover, we may suspend your Friendship Circle Account and contact you so you can provide us with valid alternative credit card information.

If you are dissatisfied with any Product you have received in your box, please contact us at info@delamie.ca within five (5) days of receiving your order.

Delivery

We do not currently deliver our products and packages to every region in Montreal. 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.

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, use and consumption of the Products. Friendship Circle 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 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 time, we will attempt to deliver your Products later that 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 Friendship Circle 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. 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.

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 DeLamie 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) & 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).

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 DeLamie Account or re-subscribing to a Subscription (a “Free Package Special Offer”). However, we do not guarantee that any Special Offers will be offered, including any Free Package Special Offer.

Should you take advantage of a Free Package Special Offer, and such Free Package 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 Package 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 package 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 DeLamie 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 DeLamie Account and an active Subscription. Cancelling your Subscription or DeLamie Account will result in the cancellation of your Credits. You may only redeem Credits after they are applied to your DeLamie Account. Any decision made by us regarding a dispute as to your Credit balance is final.

You may cancel your DeLamie Account or your Subscription at any time by contacting us at info@delamie.ca or by phone at 514-725-2255. Friendship Circle also reserves the right to suspend or end the Service if you in breach of the Agreement, or for other serious reasons, at its discretion.
