Website Terms and Conditions of Use

Terms of use: Yuppiechef Online (Pty) Ltd

Website Terms of Use for www.yuppiechef.com

Version 2.1 June 2020


These are the general terms of the relationship between you (the website visitor) and us (the website owner- Yuppiechef Online (Pty) Ltd). They cover any use of www.yuppiechef.com (the website). You agree to be legally bound by the terms by visiting and using this website. Please do not use the website if you do not agree to the terms.

You may not access, display, use, download, or otherwise copy or distribute content obtained on this website for marketing and other purposes without our consent.


Capacity

If you are under the age of 18, you may not respond to or otherwise accept or act upon any offers in the website.


Conclusion of sales and availability of stock

  1. Users may place orders for products, which Yuppiechef may accept or reject.
  2. Yuppiechef will indicate the acceptance of your order by delivering the products to you or allowing you to collect them, and only at that point will an agreement of sale between you and Yuppiechef come into effect. This is regardless of any communication from Yuppiechef stating that your order or payment has been confirmed. Yuppiechef will indicate the rejection of your order by cancelling it and, as soon as possible thereafter, refunding you for any amount already paid, or replacing your selected products with other products or a voucher, as agreed with you.
  3. Prior to delivery or your collection of the products, you may cancel an order at any time provided you do so before receiving a dispatch or delivery notice. After delivery or your collection of the products, you may return the products only in accordance with the Returns Policy.
  4. Point 2 and point 3 both exclude “trade orders” placed on behalf of an organisation, or by a registered trade partner, through our Trade Programme, where stock is to be ordered in by Yuppiechef in order to fulfil that order, upon receipt of payment from the trade partner. The agreement of sale for trade orders comes into effect with receipt of payment.
  5. Placing products in a wishlist or shopping basket without completing the purchase cycle does not constitute an order for such products, and as such, products may be removed from the shopping basket if stock is no longer available or the price thereof might change without notice to you. You cannot hold Yuppiechef liable if such products are not available or are not available at that particular price when you complete or attempt to complete the purchase cycle at a later stage.
  6. You acknowledge that stock of all products on offer is limited and that pricing may change at any time without notice to you. In the case of products for sale by Yuppiechef, Yuppiechef will take all reasonable efforts to monitor stock levels and ensure that when stock is no longer available, that offers thereof are discontinued on the Website. However, we cannot guarantee the availability of stock. When products are no longer available after you have placed an order, Yuppiechef will notify you and you will be entitled to a refund of any amount already paid by you for such products.

Pricing

We shall take all reasonable efforts to accurately reflect the description, availability, purchase price and delivery charges of Goods on the Website. However, should there be any errors of whatsoever nature on the Website (which are not due to our gross negligence), we shall not be liable for any loss, claim or expense relating to a transaction based on any error, save — in the case of any incorrect purchase price — to the extent of refunding you for any amount already paid, or otherwise as set out in the Returns Policy.


Alcohol Sales

By ordering and purchasing products that contain alcohol, you acknowledge that you are of legal drinking age. Alcohol is not for sale to persons under the age of 18. For this reason, positive identification may be requested and we may refuse an order at our discretion.


Gift Vouchers

Yuppiechef Gift Vouchers are not redeemable for cash and will not be replaced if lost, stolen, destroyed or used without permission. Yuppiechef Gift Vouchers cannot be resold to- or exchanged with a third party. You cannot use a Yuppiechef Gift Voucher to purchase another Yuppiechef Gift Voucher. Yuppiechef Gift Vouchers can only be redeemed online through our website (www.yuppiechef.com) or in-store at one of our stores.
