1. About the services
foodora operates the Platform where you can purchase Products from foodora's Partners. The Products are transported and delivered to the delivery address you specified when ordering. Transport is supplied by foodora (in such cases referred to as the "Service") or by foodora's Partners, unless you choose to pick up the Product at the Partner’s location ("Pick-Up").
At the time of your order you pay for the Product, including any transportation, directly to foodora, and foodora administers the payment to the Partner. You do not pay anything to the courier which delivers the Product to you.
1.2 Products offered
To ensure the delivery time and quality of the Product, you can only order Products from Partners with a business location near the delivery address you specify. The range and availability of foodora's Partners and Products varies from time to time and the customer is referred to the Platform for up-to-date information on this.
1.3 Order and delivery
All orders are made on the Platform by selecting the Product(s) you wish to purchase. You must then choose if you want your order delivered as soon as possible, pick up the Product yourself (Pick-Up) or if you want to place a pre-order. A pre-order can be made a maximum of three (3) days in advance. Please note that foodora never accepts orders for Products by e-mail or by live chat. Each completed order is confirmed by e-mail and the estimated delivery time is shown on the Platform. We and our Partners make the explicit reservation that a Product may be out of stock at the time of placing the order, in which case the order may be cancelled, in whole or in part, and you will be refunded accordingly.
The risk of the Product passes to you when it is delivered at the agreed location. Neither foodora's Partners nor foodora is liable for any damage to Products that occurs after the delivery. You are responsible for collecting the Product at the delivery address agreed upon; Payments made will not be refunded by foodora's Partners or foodora if you fail to collect or receive the Product at the agreed location.
1.4 Conditions for delivery
Delivery
When placing an order on the Platform with delivery (direct or pre-order), you acknowledge and agree that the Products ordered will be delivered to the location or street address provided by you for the relevant order. Delivery will be made immediately upon completion of the order by foodora's Partner, and you acknowledge that the delivery service is non-refundable and that you forfeit any statutory rights of withdrawal in relation to the delivery service.
You must be present at the relevant delivery location or street address, unless you have confirmed when placing the order that the order is to be delivered by the door (contactless delivery). If you are not available to receive the order upon delivery, foodora or the Partner may deliver the Products by the door to the extent no restrictions apply, e.g. the order contains Products for which customer identification is required, in which case you will be deemed to have agreed that the delivery may be made by the door. Once the Products are delivered at the agreed location the risk will transfer to you.
foodora or its Partners are under no obligation to deliver any order by the door to the extent restrictions apply or if it is otherwise deemed inappropriate.
You are responsible to remain available to receive calls at the phone number submitted by you on the Platform. If you cannot be reached at the phone number provided by you and delivery cannot be completed, or (in the case of orders including Products for which customer identification is required and/or for which age restrictions apply) the person receiving the goods can not identify themselves, is not of legal age, and/or intoxication or bootlegging is suspected, the delivery and the order may be cancelled. foodora charges a fee of 200 NOK (or, if less, the full order value) to cover for any costs and expenses related to the return of the goods. You may additionally be charged up to the full order value to cover for delivery fees and other costs of foodora and/or foodora's Partners due to the failure to deliver the order (including but not limited to loss caused in the form of unsaleable goods).
For orders which include Products for which customer identification is required it may be required that the order is received by the person placing the order.
Pick-up
If you have selected Pick-Up when placing the order, the Products are to be picked up by yourself at the Partner’s point of sale at the time specified on the Platform. The Partner may require that you identify yourself when collecting the order and, to the extent applicable, that you are of legal age and do not show any signs of intoxication or otherwise indicate that restrictions may apply to collect the order.
If the order is not picked up within a reasonable time period from the specified Pick-Up time you may be charged full price for the relevant Products and/or any other costs of foodora or the Partner in relation to the order.
1.5 Food ingredients and quality
Meals
For meals marketed by Partner restaurants, foodora presents the list of ingredients provided by each Partner. However, we cannot guarantee that any such list of ingredients is accurate/or up to date at all times. Thus, for information about e.g. allergens, ingredients or the origin of a raw material, we kindly ask the customer to contact the relevant foodora Partner.
Meals marketed on the Platform are prepared and packaged by foodora's Partner-restaurants in kitchens approved by the Norwegian Food Safety Authority (No. Mattilsynet). Once the meal is prepared, the meal is packaged by the restaurant and, unless you have selected Pick-Up, transported to you by appropriate means of transportation (if foodora's courier handles the delivery it will be carried out with insulated bags). foodora/the foodora personnel does not handle or interfere with the preparation of meals or any ingredients contained therein. Meals from foodora's Partner-restaurants are, unless explicitly stated otherwise, intended to be consumed immediately upon delivery, and foodora and the foodora Partner-restaurant are not responsible for the quality of the meal if consumed later.
Food
If the Product consists of pre-packaged food, it is important that you carefully read the list of ingredients set forth on the packaging before consuming, especially if you are allergic to a particular food or substance. Please note that foodora does not guarantee that the lists of ingredients presented on the Platform are correct or up to date. If you have any questions regarding ingredients in any food marketed through the Platform, please contact the relevant foodora Partner.
