Terms of Service (Legals)
Who We Are and What We Do
1.1 Eatelli
Eatelli Inc. (Eatelli), a Delaware company, provides technology solutions to help retailers connect with their customers. It makes sure that the product a customer orders is ready for pick-up or consumption when the customer arrives at the chosen retail location. Through its smartphone application (“App” or “LOCELLI® App”) and its website (“Site”), Eatelli provides a simple and quick means for customers and the retail industry to connect. Thus, Eatelli improves the shopping and dining experience either by speeding up the take-out process or reducing the wait-time for on-site diners or retailers. Eatelliis, however, not a food services-provider, a retailer or logistics-provider and, thus, not the party operating any of the food service businesses accessible through our Site or App. “LOCELLI®” is a trade name of Eatelli Inc., a Delaware corporation, which is the party offering the proprietary services featured on our platform or Site (“Services”).
1.2 Our Users
In these Terms of Service, we use “Users” or “you” to refer to (i) employees of, and other individuals associated with, participating food industry businesses using our services or accessing our Site (“Merchant Users”), as well as customers who register on our Site to use the LOCELLI® App to order food or beverages (“Registered Users”), or any other visitors to our Site.
1.3 Contracting Party
Eatelli Inc., a Delaware corporation, with its principal place of business at 1229 Gold Flower Road, Carlsbad, CA 92011 is your contractual counterpart for these Terms of Service (as this term is described in more detail in Section 2.1).

Ordering Process
This section describes, in general terms, the steps connected with ordering food, beverage or other goods or services by using the Services. Our Site and/or our App feature food service-providers who have signed up as Merchant Users. Our Site and or our App allow you to place orders for food, beverages and other goods and services offered by such Merchant Users and to communicate with the Merchant Users where you have placed an order to coordinate with respect to the availability for pick-up or on site consumption of your order at a designated site. This is a transaction concluded by you and the Merchant User selected by you. Eatelli is not a party to this transaction and bears no liability for the availability, on-time delivery or quality of the food, beverage, goods or services ordered by you. As a condition of placing an order by using the Services you are required to link your Registered User account with a valid credit card or other authorized payment method (“Payment Method”). Merchant Users set the prices for the goods and services you may be ordering by using the Services, and they may be offering different prices and conditions for the same goods and services to different customers, depending on a variety of factors. As part of the ordering process, the Merchant User will require you to pay for your order. You are responsible for payment for your order by means of an authorized Payment Method in accordance with the terms and conditions applicable to the transaction between you and the Merchant User. Eatelli does not mark up any prices charged by its Merchant Users and has no control over such prices. Any taxes added to the price of your order by the Merchant User are your responsibility to pay.
Once you arrive at the site designated by you and the Merchant User for pick-up or on-site consumption of your order, you must communicate your arrival by checking in, typically by placing your mobile device near a sensor bearing the LOCELLI® logo at the Merchant User’s site. You should receive feedback through your mobile device or the Merchant User’s LOCELLI® sensor that you have successfully checked in. As mobile devices or other hard and software used to provide the Services may not be available or may malfunction from time to time, you should check with the Merchant User directly if you are not sure whether your check-in was successful. Eatelli disclaims any liability for a failure or a delay of communicating your arrival to the Merchant User for whatever reasons. If you were satisfied with the quality of the food and beverages ordered and/or the service provided by the Merchant User and its staff, please feel free to leave a tip in accordance with local customs. Eatelli will not financially reward the performance of its Merchant Users and their staff; however, we will ask you to provide feedback about your experience following your visit to any Merchant User. Any feedback you may provide us with (including pictures you may share with us as part of your feedback) will be available to Eatelli for use in its business without any limitations or restrictions.
Important Legal Terms Governing All Use of the Services
5.1 Financial Responsibility for Use of Services
Signing up as a Registered User and the subsequent use of your LOCELLI® account is free of charge.

Eatelli is not in a position to investigate or vet the purveyors of food and beverage services signing up as Merchant Users on LOCELLI® and disclaims any obligation to do so to the extent permitted by law. Thus, acceptance of anyone as Merchant User, or permittance of Registered Users to report on our Site about their experiences with a particular Merchant User, is not a recommendation or endorsement by Eatelli of such a Merchant User, its products and services or parties advertising on their websites. By signing up as a Registered User and by each continued use of our Service, you agree to conduct your own investigation with respect to any Merchant User you may decide to visit or order food, beverages, goods or services from.
