PENGU PLATFORM

The Platform connects consumers with retail stores, and restaurants (“Merchants”), and with independent contractor couriers (“Couriers”), to facilitate on-demand delivery or pickup services. Through the Platform, consumers may request that merchandise or food be made available for pick-up or delivered to them from a Merchant by Couriers who contract with Pengu to access the Platform and receive delivery opportunities.

Pengu is not a retail store, restaurant, food delivery platform, merchandise delivery platform or food preparation entity. Pengu is not liable or responsible for Merchants’ compliance with applicable federal, state, or local laws, rules, regulations or standards pertaining to their businesses. In addition, Pengu does not guarantee the quality of what Merchants sell and does not independently verify, and is not liable for, representations made by Merchants regarding their products on the Platform.

Pengu does not provide Courier services. Couriers are independent contractors and not employees, partners, agents, joint ventures, or franchisees of Pengu. Couriers have entered into independent contractor agreements with Pengu, which require them to comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws, rules and regulations. Pengu shall not be liable or responsible for any delivery services provided by Couriers, or any errors or misrepresentations made by any of them. You hereby acknowledge that Pengu does not supervise, direct, control, or monitor a Courier’s provision of services and expressly disclaims any responsibility or liability for the services performed.

As provided in greater detail in these Terms, you agree and acknowledge these material terms:

      • The Platform is licensed, not sold to you, and you may use the Platform only as set forth in these Terms;

      • Your use of the Platform may be subject to separate third party terms of service and fees, including without limitation your mobile network operator’s (“Carrier”) terms of service and fees, including fees charged for data usage and overage, which are your sole responsibility;

      • You consent to the collection, sharing, and use of your personally identifiable information in accordance with Pengu ‘s Privacy Policy;

      • The Platform is provided “as is” without warranties of any kind, and Pengu’s liability to you is limited; and

          • Scope of License

        The Platform is licensed, not sold, to you for use only under the terms of this license. Pengu reserves all rights not expressly granted to you. Subject to your complete and ongoing compliance with these Terms, Pengu hereby grants you a personal, limited, non-sublicensable, non-transferable, and revocable license to access the Platform on compatible devices that you own or control, solely for your own personal, non-commercial use, and only in a manner that complies with all legal requirements that apply to you or your use of the Platform. Pengu may revoke this license at any time, in its sole discretion.

        You may not modify, alter, reproduce, distribute or make the App available over a network where it could be used by multiple devices at the same time. You may not rent, lease, lend, sell, redistribute or sublicense the App. If you breach these license restrictions, or otherwise exceed the scope of the license granted in these Terms, you may be subject to prosecution and legal damages, as well as liability for infringement of intellectual property rights.

            • Payment Terms

          General Payment Terms

          Platform

          You understand that the prices for product or menu items displayed through the Platform may differ from the prices offered or published by Merchants for the same product or menu items and/or from prices available at other third-party websites/mobile applications. Prices for product or menu items displayed through the Platform may not be the lowest prices at which the product or menu items are sold.

          Because of the nature of the Platform, Pengu does not always know how much a Merchant will charge for a particular product or menu item. Where your cart includes product or menu items for which Pengu does not know the exact price to be charged by the Merchant, Pengu may designate an estimated subtotal for such product and menu items (the “Estimated Subtotal”). Similarly, where Pengu does not know the exact price of certain or all fees associated with the order, including any applicable taxes and/or Pengu fees, we may designate an estimate for such fees (the “Estimated Fees”). If you have included product or menu items in your cart that are subject to Estimated Subtotal and/or Estimated Fees, we will provide you with an estimated total. Merchants may charge more or less than the Estimated Subtotal for products or menu items you order. Similarly, we may charge more or less than the Estimated Fees based upon the final prevailing price of Merchant’s goods. In some cases, we may not be able to provide Estimated Subtotal or Estimated Fees, such as when the merchandise cost is unknown or we are otherwise unable to predict fees. Pengu reserves the right to determine final prevailing pricing of all product or menu items ordered through the Platform. In cases in which prevailing pricing is different than the Estimated Subtotal and/or Estimated Fees, what you are ultimately charged may be different than the estimated total. You acknowledge and agree to pay the prevailing pricing and fees, even if they differ from the Estimated Subtotal and/or Estimated Fees. Please visit our website to learn more about how product or menu items are priced.

          Certain features of the Platform, including placing orders, may require you to pay fees to Pengu. Pengu may change, or add, fees for use of our Platform at any time as we deem necessary or appropriate for our business. You will have an opportunity to review and accept an estimate of the fees that you will be charged, as applicable. The final fees may differ from the estimate. In all cases, you acknowledge and accept that a fee will be charged and you agree to pay said fee. We encourage you to check our Site periodically to learn more about how we charge for the Platform.

          Pengu has no obligation to itemize its costs, profits or margins when publishing prices on the Platform and reserves the right to change such prices at any time, at its discretion. You are liable for all transaction taxes on the Platform provided under these Terms (other than taxes based on Pengu ‘s income).

          Pengu will charge the payment method you specify at the time of purchase or as otherwise specified by you in your account information. We may also place a pre-authorization hold on your payment method.

          Charges paid by you are final and non-refundable and will be quoted in the local currency of the location where the order is being delivered or picked up. Pengu has no obligation to provide refunds or credits. However, Pengu, in its sole discretion, may provide users with refunds, courtesy delivery or product credits, or make promotional offers with different features and different rates to any consumers. These credits and offers may be used for future transactions on the Platform. Such credits or offers are non-transferrable, may not be resold, and are not redeemable for cash or other consideration. Pengu reserves its right to expire, limit, or modify any credits or promotion at any time. If your account is cancelled for any or no reason, you may forfeit any pending, current, or future credits or promotional offers and any other forms of unredeemed value in or associated with your account without prior notice to you.

          Referral Program

          Pengu may offer a referral program (“Referral Program”), allowing consumers to earn courtesy delivery or product credits, or other promotional rewards (“Referral Program Rewards”) by inviting their eligible friends to register as new Pengu consumers using a unique referral code (“Referral Program Codes”). Referral Program Codes must be used for the intended audience and purposes, and may not be sold or transferred in any manner or made available to the general public (whether posted to a public forum or otherwise), unless expressly permitted by Pengu. Referral Program Rewards are non-transferrable, may not be resold, and are not redeemable for cash or other consideration. You agree we may change the terms and conditions of the Referral Program, terminate the Referral Program, or expire, deduct, limit, or modify your Referral Program Rewards at any time for any reason, including but not limited to, the event that Pengu determines or believes that your participation in the Referral Program or use or redemption of Referral Program Codes was in error, fraudulent, illegal, or otherwise in violation of these Terms.

          Unlimited Subscription

          Pengu Unlimited (“Unlimited”) is offered as a monthly or yearly pre-paid subscription to the Platform on a per account basis. By signing up for Unlimited and providing us with your payment account information, you are signing up to an auto-renewing subscription requiring recurring payments and agree to pay the then-current applicable fee associated with the subscription.

          If you sign up for the monthly subscription, you will be charged your first monthly subscription fee and any applicable taxes on the date you purchase your subscription or, if your subscription includes a free trial, on the day after your free trial ends. Your subscription will automatically continue on a monthly basis, and you will continue to be charged on a monthly basis at the then-current price (including any applicable taxes), until you cancel your subscription or we terminate it. If you sign up for the yearly subscription, you will be charged your first upfront, non-refundable (except as described below) yearly subscription fee and any applicable taxes on the date you purchase your subscription or, if your subscription includes a free trial, on the day after your free trial ends. Your subscription will automatically continue on a yearly basis at the then-current price (including any applicable taxes), and you will continue to be charged on a yearly basis, until you cancel your subscription or we terminate it. You can find your monthly and/or yearly subscription renewal/billing date in your account settings.

          If your subscription includes a free trial, you will not be charged the applicable fee during your free trial. To obtain the free trial you will be required to provide a credit card in order to ensure uninterrupted access to Unlimited and continued use after the expiration of the free trial. Upon completion of your free trial, your subscription will automatically convert into a paid Unlimited subscription and your payment method will be charged the applicable fee unless you have cancelled your Unlimited subscription. You may cancel your Unlimited subscription as described below. You may not receive a notice from us that your free trial has ended or that the paying portion of your Unlimited subscription has begun. You are only permitted one free trial. If your Unlimited subscription is ever terminated for any reason, and you purchase an additional Unlimited subscription, you shall not be eligible for a free trial on any subsequent Unlimited subscriptions.

          We may change the subscription terms or fees at any time on a going forward basis in our discretion. If the pricing for your subscription increases, we will notify you, and provide you an opportunity to change your subscription before applying those changes to your account or charging your payment details in connection with an automatic renewal. The notification will inform you of how long you have to change your subscription before the changes become effective. Your continued use of Unlimited after the changes become effective will constitute your acceptance of the changes. If you do not wish to continue subscribing with the new fees or features, you may cancel your subscription. If you accept the new subscription, its terms and conditions will apply for that renewal and all renewals going forward. For information on the monthly and yearly subscription fees and terms, please visit our website.

          You may cancel your subscription at any time in your account settings or by contacting us via our website. You must cancel your subscription before it renews to avoid billing of the next periodic subscription fees to your account. However, if you cancel a pre-paid yearly or monthly subscription, you will not receive any refund. If you cancel your monthly or yearly subscription, you will be able to use your Unlimited subscription for the remainder of your pre-paid subscription term.

          We may terminate your subscription for Unlimited at our discretion and without any notice. If we cancel your yearly subscription for Unlimited, we will give you a prorated refund based on the amount of time remaining in your pre-paid subscription; provided, however, that Pengu will not be obligated to grant you a refund if we terminate your account or your subscription because we determine, in our sole discretion, that your actions or your use of the Platform violates these Terms or has harmed another user.

          Payment Authorization

          You authorize Pengu to charge all sums for orders that you make to the payment method designated in your account. When you place an order order through Pengu, a temporary pre-authorization hold is placed on your designated payment method to verify that the card is valid and has funds available for your intended purchase. The amount of this pre-authorization hold may be greater or less than the order total quoted at checkout. However, your payment will be captured up to 24 hours after your order is completed or cancelled. In the event that the pre-authorization is greater than the final amount, the difference will be released after your order is completed or cancelled; depending on your bank, it may take up to 5 business days to receive access to these released funds.

          Pengu also places an initial temporary pre-authorization hold on each new payment method you add to your account.

          Pengu reserves the right to request additional information from you if we have reason to believe, in our sole discretion, that a payment method may be fraudulent.

          Delinquent Accounts

          If payment due on your account is delinquent, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Platform; your account information may be sent to a collection agency/debt collector and you may be subject to a collection action, and payment of collection related fees and costs. If any fee for your Unlimited subscription is not paid in a timely manner, we reserve the right to revoke access to your Unlimited subscription and use of Pengu. If you do not bring your Pengu balance current after we provide you with notification that your account is in arrears, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to your Unlimited subscription or convert your Unlimited subscription to a non-subscription account. You will be responsible for paying all past due amounts. If you have questions regarding an outstanding balance on your account, please contact us via email.

          If your payment card expires or is replaced by your issuing bank, the card network may provide us with updated card details associated with the same account. We may use these new details in order to help prevent any interruption to the Platform. If you would like to use a different payment method or remove a saved payment method from your account, please visit your account settings to update your billing information.

          Consumer Not Available

          Pengu reserves the right to charge you the full order amount, including any Pengu fees, if you are not at the designated delivery location when the Courier arrives to complete the delivery or if you fail to pick up an order from a Merchant.

          Cancelled Orders

          If you cancel your order, you may be charged depending on what stage the order was in when you cancelled. You will be notified of any applicable charges before you complete your cancellation. You can learn more about order cancellations in our website.

                      Indemnity

                      You are responsible for your use of the Platform, and you agree to defend (at Pengu ‘s option), indemnify, and hold harmless Pengu and its officers, directors, employees, contractors, consultants, affiliates, investors, service providers, business partners, subsidiaries and agents from and against every claim, liability, damage, loss, and expense, including reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs, arising out of or in any way connected with:

                        • Your violation of any of these Terms, any representation, warranty, or agreement referenced in these Terms, or any applicable law or regulation;

                        • Your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property right or publicity, confidentiality, other property, or privacy right; or

                        • Any dispute or issue between you and any third party, including any Courier, Merchant, or other third-party.

                      Pengu reserves the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you (without limiting your indemnification obligations) and you agree to cooperate with our defense of that claim. If the defense or settlement is assumed by you, Pengu may at any time thereafter elect to take over control of the defense and settlement of the claim. You must not settle any claim without Pengu ‘s prior written consent

                      Notice

                      Pengu may give notice by any means of communication reasonably anticipated to notify you of the information provided. You agree that all notices, disclosures, and other communications that we provide to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in writing or be delivered in a particular manner. You agree that you have the ability to store such electronic communications such that they remain accessible to you in an unchanged form. By way of example only, such communication may be a general notice on the Platform or via email to the email address listed on your Pengu account. It is your obligation to update your account information so that we may contact you as may be necessary. Such notice shall be deemed to have been given 48 hours after dispatch. If physical notice (e.g., US Mail) is used, then such notice shall be deemed to have been given 7 days after dispatch.

                      Except as explicitly described in the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section, you may give notice to Pengu (such notice shall be deemed given when received by Pengu) at any time by mail.

                      Assignment

                      You may not assign or transfer these Terms or your rights under these Terms, in whole or in part, by operation of law or otherwise, without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in whole or in part at any time to any entity without your notice or consent. Any purported assignment by you in violation of this section shall be void.

                      Term and Termination of Agreement

                      These Terms are effective until terminated by you or Pengu as described below. Your rights under these Terms will terminate automatically without notice from Pengu if you fail to comply with any of these Terms (including by violating any license restriction contained in these Terms). In addition, Pengu may in its sole discretion terminate your user account on the Platform or suspend or terminate your access to the Platform at any time without notice.

                      Dispute Resolution and Arbitration

                      Disputes

                      Pengu is not a party to, has no involvement or interest in, makes no representations or warranties as to, and has no responsibility or liability with respect to any communications, transactions, interactions, disputes or any relations whatsoever between you and any other user, any Courier, or Merchant, or other third party. Disputes between you and Pengu are subject to this Section. You and Pengu agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act governs the interpretation and enforcement of the arbitration provisions in these Terms.

                      Generally

                      In the interest of resolving Disputes between you and Pengu in the most expedient and cost effective manner, you and Pengu agree that every Dispute arising in connection with these Terms will be resolved by binding individual arbitration. Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, and can be subject to very limited review by courts. While the parties will be permitted to engage in discovery or exchange of non-privileged information relevant to the dispute, arbitration may allow for more limited discovery allowed for in court. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award. Our agreement to arbitrate disputes includes all claims arising out of or relating to any aspect of these Terms, the Platform, or your relationship with us, whether based in contract, tort, statute, fraud, misrepresentation, or any other legal theory, and regardless of whether a claim arises during or after the termination of these Terms.

                      You understand and agree that, by entering into these terms, you and Pengu are each waiving the right to go to court or to participate in a class or  representative action.

                      Exceptions

                      Despite the provisions of the paragraph directly above, we both agree that nothing in these Terms will be deemed to waive, preclude, or otherwise limit the right of either of us to: (1) Bring an individual action in small claims court; (2) Pursue an enforcement action through the applicable federal, state, or local agency if that action is available; or (3) File suit in a court of law to address an intellectual property infringement claim.

                      Arbitrator

                      Any arbitration between you and Pengu shall be conducted by a single arbitrator, governed by JAMS pursuant to its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules & Procedures,

                      Notice Process

                      A party who intends to seek arbitration must first send a written notice of the Dispute to the other, by certified mail or Federal Express (signature required), or if we do not have a physical address on file for you, by electronic mail (“Notice”).

                      The Notice must: (1) Describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (2) Set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”).

                      We agree to use good faith efforts to resolve the claim directly, but if we do not reach an agreement to do so within thirty (30) days after the Notice is received, you or Pengu may commence an arbitration proceeding. To start an arbitration, you must do the following: (1) Write a Demand for Arbitration that includes a description of the claim and the amount of damages you seek to recover. (2) Send three copies of the Demand for Arbitration, plus the filing fee, to the authority in charge and (3) Send one copy of the Demand for Arbitration to Pengu at the following address:

                      2nd Floor, 22 Papanikoli St., Chalandri, 152 32 Athens, Greece

                      During the arbitration, the amount of any settlement offer made by you or Pengu must not be disclosed to the arbitrator until after the arbitrator makes a final decision and award, if any.

                      Fees

                      If you commence arbitration in accordance with these Terms, you will be required to pay a fee to initiate the arbitration. If the arbitrator finds the arbitration to be non-frivolous, Pengu will pay all other fees invoiced by the authorities, including filing fees and arbitrator and hearing expenses. You are responsible for your own attorneys’ fees unless the arbitration rules and/or applicable law provide otherwise.

                      If you are a resident of the Greece, arbitration may take place in the county where you reside at the time of filing. For individuals residing outside the Greece, arbitration shall be initiated in Greece. You and Pengu further agree to submit to the personal jurisdiction of any federal or state court in Athens, Greece in order to compel arbitration, to stay proceedings pending arbitration, or to confirm, modify, vacate, or enter judgment on the award entered by the arbitrator. If a claim is for 10,000€ or less, you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted: (1) Solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator; or (2) Through a non-appearance based telephone hearing.

                      If the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought in the Demand is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose (as measured by the standards set forth in Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b)), then the payment of all fees will be governed by the authorities. In that case, you agree to reimburse Pengu for all monies previously disbursed by it that are otherwise your obligation to pay under the Government’s Rules. Regardless of the manner in which the arbitration is conducted, the arbitrator must issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions on which the decision and award, if any, are based.

                      The arbitrator may make rulings and resolve disputes as to the payment and reimbursement of fees or expenses at any time during the proceeding and upon request from either party made within fourteen (14) days of the arbitrator’s ruling on the merits.

                      No Class or Representative Actions

                      You and Pengu agree that each may bring claims agains the other only in your or its individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class or representative proceeding.

                      Further, unless both you and Pengu agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If any court or arbitrator determines that this “No Class or Representative Actions” section is void or unenforceable for any reason or that an arbitration can proceed on a class or representative basis, then the arbitration provisions set forth above shall be deemed null and void in their entirety and the parties shall be deemed to have not agreed to arbitrate disputes.

                      30-Day Right to Opt Out

                      You have the right to opt out and not be bound by the arbitration and class action waiver provisions set forth above by submitting a request via e-mail. The notice must be sent within thirty (30) days of your creating an account with Pengu or the effective date of the first set of Terms containing a Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section, whichever is later; otherwise, you shall be bound to arbitrate disputes in accordance with the terms of these paragraphs. If you opt out of these arbitration provisions, Pengu also will not be bound by them.

                      Modifications

                      Except for inconsequential changes that do not affect any rights or obligations herein, Pengu will provide thirty (30) days’ notice of any changes to this section by posting on the Platform, sending you a message, or otherwise notifying you when you are logged into your account. Amendments will become effective thirty (30) days after they are posted on the Platform or sent to you, or otherwise notified when you are logged into your account. Changes to this section will otherwise apply prospectively only to claims arising after the thirtieth (30th) day. If a court or arbitrator decides that this subsection on “Modifications” is not enforceable or valid, then this subsection shall be severed from the section entitled “Dispute Resolution and Arbitration,” and the court or arbitrator shall apply the first Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section in existence after you began using the Platform. You may otherwise reject the change by sending us written notice within thirty (30) days of the change to Pengu ‘s address for Notice, in which case your account with Pengu will be immediately terminated and this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the amendments you reject, will survive.

                      Modification of these Terms

                      Except as explicitly described in the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section, we reserve the right to update or modify the Terms at any time without prior notice, and such changes will be effective immediately upon being posted through the Platform, except as set forth below. These Terms identify the date of last update. Except as explicitly described in the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section, your use of the Platform following any such change constitutes your agreement to be bound by the modified Terms. In the case of material changes to these Terms, we will make reasonable efforts to notify you of the change, such as through sending an email to the address you may have used to register for an account, through a pop-up window on the Platform, or other similar mechanism.

                      You acknowledge and agree that if Pengu modifies any provision of these Terms (including any information referenced at hyperlinks), other than the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section herein, you will not have a renewed opportunity to opt out of arbitration. You further acknowledge and agrees that unless the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section herein is materially different from any prior arbitration provision with Pengu to which you may be bound, your acceptance of these Terms does not create a renewed opportunity to opt out of arbitration (if applicable).

                      Except as explicitly described in the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section, material changes to these Terms will be effective upon the earlier of: (1) Your first use of the Platform with actual notice of such change, or (2) thirty (30) days from posting of such change.

                      Disputes arising under these Terms will be resolved in accordance with the version of the Terms in place at the time the dispute arose. We encourage you to review these Terms frequently to stay informed of the latest modifications.

                      Confidentiality

                      You acknowledge and agree that when using the Platform, you may have direct or indirect access or exposure to Pengu ‘s confidential information (“Confidential Information”). Confidential Information includes Pengu ‘s data, provider IDs, user information, delivery recipient information, delivery provider information, package information, and the transaction volume, marketing and business plans, business, financial, technical, operational and such other nonpublic information (whether disclosed in writing or verbally) that Pengu designates as being proprietary or confidential or that you should reasonably know to treat as confidential.

                      You acknowledge and agree that: (1) all Confidential Information shall remain the exclusive property of the Pengu; (2) you shall not use Confidential Information for any purpose except in furtherance of your use of the Platform; (3) you shall not disclose Confidential Information to any third party; and (d) you shall not store or keep Confidential Information and shall return or destroy (with confirmation of destruction) all Confidential Information upon the termination of your use of the Platform or at the request of Pengu.

                      Notwithstanding the foregoing, Confidential Information shall not include any information to the extent it: (1) is or becomes part of the public domain through no action or omission by you; (2) was possessed by you prior to your use of the Platform without an obligation of confidentiality; or (3) is disclosed to you by a third party having no obligation of confidentiality with respect thereto.

                        • General

                      Governing Law. These Terms are governed by the laws of the Greek Government without regard to conflict of law principles. If a lawsuit or court proceeding is permitted under these Terms, you and Pengu agree to submit to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction of the state courts and federal courts located within Greece for the purpose of litigating any Dispute. We operate the Platform from our offices in Athens, and we make no representation that materials included in the Platform are appropriate or available for use in other locations. No joint venture, partnership, employment, or agency relationship exists between you, Pengu or any third-party provider as a result of the Terms or use of the Platform.

                      Waiver and Severability. Except as explicitly described in the Dispute Resolution and Arbitration section, if any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, such provision shall be struck and the remaining provisions shall be enforced to the fullest extent under law. The failure of Pengu to enforce any right or provision in these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision unless acknowledged and agreed to by Pengu in writing.

                      Entire Agreement. These Terms comprise the entire agreement between you and Pengu and supersedes all prior or contemporaneous negotiations, discussions or agreements, whether written or oral, between the parties regarding the subject matter contained in these Terms.
