Messaging Terms & Conditions

Artisan Eats (hereinafter, "Artisan Eats," "We," "Us," "Our") is offering a mobile messaging program (the "Program"), which you agree to use and participate in subject to these Mobile Messaging Terms and Conditions and Messaging Privacy Policy.

By opting in to or participating in any of our Programs, you accept and agree to these terms and conditions, including, without limitation, your agreement to resolve any disputes with us through binding, individual-only arbitration, as detailed in the "Dispute Resolution" section below. In arbitration there is less discovery and appellate review than in court. Please review carefully.

By opting in to or participating in any of our Programs, you represent and warrant that you do so because of a genuine desire to receive discounts, promotions, and other news or information from Us and not because of a desire or intent to initiate litigation or bring legal claims against any party. If you have requested to receive SMS with a desire to bring legal claims against Us or any vendors acting on our behalf, then you shall immediately unsubscribe using the instructions set forth below and agree to indemnify Us and/or those vendors for any expenses, including attorneys' fees, associated with defending such claims.

This Agreement is limited to the Program and is not intended to modify other Terms and Conditions or Privacy Policy that may govern the relationship between you and Us in other contexts (including those in the "Other Terms and Policies" section below). Regardless of the opt-in method you utilized to join the Program, you agree that this Agreement applies to your participation in the Program.

1. User Opt In.

By providing your phone number, you represent and warrant that you are providing your own phone number, and not someone else's, and that you are a legally-authorized user of this phone number. Consent to receive automated marketing text messages is not a condition of any purchase. While you consent to receive messages sent using an autodialer, the foregoing shall not be interpreted to suggest or imply that any or all of Our mobile messages are sent using an automatic telephone dialing system ("ATDS" or "autodialer"). Message and data rates may apply. Message frequency varies.

You understand that you may withdraw this consent, update your information, or request a free paper copy of the information by emailing us at aeplatters@gmail.com. You understand that to access and retain a copy of this webpage, you will need: (i) a device (such as a computer or mobile phone) with a web browser and Internet access; and (ii) available storage space on that device to download a copy of this webpage of a connected printer to print a copy of this webpage.

Some of these messages may be tailored to your interests based on information available to Us. By enrolling and remaining in the program, You agree to the use of AI and further that Our use of these AI services does not make those third-parties either senders or initiators of the text messages or otherwise responsible for the messages.

6. Message Frequency, Cost and Changes. Message and data rates may apply. You agree to receive messages periodically at Our discretion. Daily, weekly, and monthly message frequency will vary. We reserve the right to alter the frequency of messages sent at any time, so as to increase or decrease the total number of sent messages.

15. Dispute Resolution (Including Arbitration Agreement, Class Action Waiver).

Our Customer Service Specialists are ready to assist you and address your concerns—email us at: aeplatters@gmail.com.

THIS SECTION LIMITS CERTAIN RIGHTS, INCLUDING THE RIGHT TO MAINTAIN A COURT ACTION, THE RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL, THE RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN ANY FORM OF CLASS, COLLECTIVE, OR REPRESENTATIVE CLAIM OR ACTION IN ARBITRATION AND LITIGATION, AND THE RIGHT TO CERTAIN REMEDIES AND FORMS OF RELIEF. OTHER RIGHTS THAT YOU OR Artisan Eats WOULD HAVE IN COURT, SUCH AS APPELLATE REVIEW, ALSO MAY NOT BE AVAILABLE IN ARBITRATION.

Binding Individual Arbitration: In the event that there is a dispute, claim, or controversy between you and Us, or between you and Stodge Inc. d/b/a Postscript or any other third-party service provider acting on Our behalf to transmit the mobile messages within the scope of the Program, arising out of or relating to federal or state statutory claims, common law claims, this Agreement, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate ("Dispute"), such Dispute will be, to the fullest extent permitted by law and applicable rules, determined by arbitration before one arbitrator, provided, however, that no party shall be precluded from seeking remedies in small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of its jurisdiction. Whether a Dispute falls within the jurisdictional limits of small claims court is for the small claims court to decide. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction.

Dispute will be given the broadest possible meaning permitted by law. It includes, but is not limited to: (a) any dispute or claim that arose before the existence of these or any prior Terms and Conditions (including, but not limited to, claims relating to advertising); (b) any dispute or claim that is currently the subject of a purported class action litigation in which you are not a member of a certified class; and (c) any dispute or claim that may arise after termination of these Terms and Conditions and our relationship with you and Stodge Inc. d/b/a Postscript or any other third-party service provider acting on Our behalf. Dispute, however, does not include disagreements or claims concerning patents, copyrights, trademarks, trade secrets, or other intellectual property, and claims of piracy or unauthorized use of intellectual property. The arbitrator shall decide all issues that relate to the scope, validity, and enforceability of the Agreement. You and Artisan Eats agree that these Terms and Conditions evidence a transaction in interstate commerce and that this arbitration agreement will be interpreted and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and U.S. federal arbitration law and not state arbitration law.

Mandatory Informal Dispute Resolution Process. If you and Artisan Eats have a Dispute, you and Artisan Eats agree to make a good faith effort to informally resolve it. The party initiating the Dispute must send a written notice to the other party that describes the Dispute. The notice must include all of this information: (a) the initiating party's contact information (including name, address, telephone number, and email address) (with their counsel's contact information, if represented); (b) sufficient information to enable the other party to identify any phone number(s), transaction(s), or account(s) at issue; and (b) a detailed description of (1) the Dispute, (2) the nature and basis of the claims, and (3) the nature and basis of the relief sought, with a detailed calculation for such relief. The notice must be personally signed by the party initiating the Dispute (and their counsel, if represented).

If you have a Dispute with us, you must send this notice, including all of the information referenced above, by email to: aeplatters@gmail.com or by mail to: 5150 Reed Rd, Columbus OH 43220, US. If we have a Dispute with you, we will send this notice, including all of the information referenced above, to you at the most recent contact information we have on file for you or, if we do not have a mailing address on file, you authorize us to text you at the phone number we have available to seek your mailing address.

For a period of sixty (60) days from receipt of a completed notice (which can be extended by agreement of the parties), you and we (and counsel, if you and we are represented) agree to negotiate in good faith in an effort to informally resolve the Dispute. To this end, the party receiving the notice may request a telephone or video settlement conference to aid in the resolution of the Dispute. If such a conference is requested, you and a Artisan Eats representative will personally attend (with counsel, if you and we are represented). The conference will be scheduled for a mutually convenient time, which may be outside of the 60-day period.

If the Dispute is not resolved within sixty (60) days after receipt of a completed notice (which period can be extended by agreement of the parties), you or Artisan Eats may commence a formal dispute resolution proceeding consistent with the process set forth below. Compliance with and completion of this Mandatory Informal Dispute Resolution Process ("Process") is a condition precedent to you or Artisan Eats commencing any formal dispute resolution proceeding in arbitration or small claims court. All applicable limitations periods (including statutes of limitations) will be tolled from the date of receipt of a completed notice through the conclusion of this Process. If the sufficiency of a notice or compliance with this Process is at issue, such issue may be raised with and decided by a court at either party's election, and any formal dispute resolution proceeding shall be stayed pending resolution of the issue. A court of competent jurisdiction shall have the authority to enforce this condition precedent to arbitration, which includes the power to enjoin the filing or prosecution of a demand for arbitration. Nothing in this section limits the right of a party to raise the sufficiency of a notice or compliance with this Process or to seek damages for non-compliance with this Process in arbitration, including with a Process Arbitrator. You or we may commence arbitration only if the Dispute is not resolved through compliance with this Process.

Arbitration Generally; Relief Available. There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited pursuant to the FAA. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including injunctive and declaratory relief or statutory damages), and must follow the Terms as a court would. For the avoidance of doubt, the arbitrator can award public injunctive relief if authorized by law and warranted by the individual claim(s).

Arbitration Proceedings and Rules, Including Provisions Governing Mass Arbitrations. The following rules and procedures shall apply:

  • Any arbitration will be administered by New Era ADR in accordance with their Virtual Expedited Arbitration Rules and Procedures, as well as any applicable General Rules and Procedures, except as modified by the Terms. New Era ADR's Virtual Expedited Arbitration Rules and Procedures and General Rules and Procedures are both available at www.neweraadr.com/rules-and-procedures/. Please review these procedures carefully because they may impact how your complaint is handled and these procedures differ from those that would otherwise apply if you elected to pursue your claim individually in small claims court.
  • When You initiate arbitration, the only fee You are required to pay is New Era's consumer filing fee, which is currently a maximum of $300 for a consumer. All other fees or expenses charged by New Era ADR will be paid by us (unless the arbitrator finds that either the substance of your claim or the relief sought is frivolous or brought for an improper purpose). You are responsible for fees and expenses owed to your legal counsel, if any, unless the arbitrator determines that an award of attorney's fees is warranted under applicable law.
  • New Era ADR's rules and procedures include unique procedures for “mass arbitrations,” which are situations in which five (5) or more cases are filed that arise out of common issues of law and fact and are brought by the same law firm or group of law firms. Mass arbitration procedures are designed to provide for a more cost-effective resolution of disputes. Those mass arbitration procedures call for a limited number of cases to be treated as “bellwether” cases to be resolved on the merits earlier than other cases. The outcome of bellwether cases may be treated as precedent in evaluating the remaining cases. You understand and agree that these Procedures for Mass Arbitrations will apply and that they are designed to (a) lead to the streamlined and cost-effective resolution of claims; (b) ensure that large volume filings do not impose unnecessary burdens or impediments to the resolution and cost-effective adjudication of similar claims; and (c) preserve the integrity of the arbitration process. You also understand and agree that by choosing to bring your Dispute as a part of a Mass Arbitration that the resolution of your Dispute might be delayed and ultimately proceed in court and not in arbitration. The parties agree that as part of these procedures, their counsel shall meet and confer in good faith in an effort to resolve the Disputes, streamline procedures, address the exchange of information, modify the number of Disputes to be adjudicated, and conserve the parties' and New Era ADR's resources.
  • If any provision of this Agreement is deemed by an arbitrator not to comply with the Minimum Fairness Standards published by New Era ADR and available at https://www.neweraadr.com/ then the Minimum Fairness Standards should be deemed to be incorporated by reference and any offending provision shall be deemed unenforceable.
  • The arbitrator shall be selected pursuant to New Era ADR's standard rank and strike process, as set forth in New Era ADR's General Rules and Procedures.
  • Except as otherwise provided herein, the arbitrator shall apply the substantive laws of the state and Federal Judicial Circuit in which Artisan Eats's principle place of business is located, without regard to its conflict of laws rules.
  • By signing the demand for arbitration, a party (and their counsel, if represented) certifies that they have complied with (a) the Dispute Resolution provisions of this agreement and (b) all of the requirements of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11(b), including that the claims and relief sought are neither frivolous nor brought for an improper purpose. The arbitrator is authorized to award any relief or impose any sanctions available under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 11 or applicable federal or state law against all represented parties and counsel as a court would.
  • The arbitrator may award any relief or remedy that would be available in a court of law, including attorneys' fees and punitive damages where permitted by statute and is permitted to apply the cost-shifting provisions of Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 68 after entry of an award.
  • The arbitrator shall issue a reasoned written decision sufficient to explain the essential findings and conclusions. In the event of a Mass Arbitration, the parties agree that, for the sake of efficiency, an arbitrator's written decision may address some or all of the cases jointly. The decision of the arbitrator shall be final and binding, and no party shall have rights of appeal except for those provided in section 10 of the FAA.
  • Except as may be required by law, neither a party nor the arbitrator may disclose the existence, content, or results of any arbitration without the prior written consent of both parties, unless to protect or pursue a legal right. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, if Artisan Eats makes any future change to this arbitration provision, you may reject the change by sending Us written notice within 30 days of the change to 5150 Reed Rd, Columbus OH 43220, US, in which case this arbitration provision, as in effect immediately prior to the changes you rejected, will continue to govern any disputes between you and Artisan Eats.

No class actions or juries. YOU UNDERSTAND AND AGREE THAT, BY AGREEING TO THIS AGREEMENT, YOU AND Artisan Eats ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AND THAT THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE SUBJECT TO AND GOVERNED BY THE FEDERAL ARBITRATION ACT (the "FAA"). The parties agree to arbitrate solely on an individual basis, and this agreement does not permit class arbitration or any claims brought as a plaintiff or class member in any class or representative arbitration proceeding.

Invalidity and Survivability. If any term or provision of this Section is invalid, illegal, or unenforceable in any jurisdiction, such invalidity, illegality, or unenforceability shall not affect any other term or provision of this Section or invalidate or render unenforceable such term or provision in any other jurisdiction. If for any reason a dispute proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, the parties hereby waive any right to a jury trial. This arbitration provision shall survive any cancellation or termination of your agreement to participate in any of our Programs.

Future Changes to Dispute Resolution Section. Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary, you and we agree that if Artisan Eats makes any future changes to this arbitration agreement (other than a change to the mailing or email address), you may reject any such change by sending us written notice personally signed by you within thirty (30) days of the change to Artisan Eats at 5150 Reed Rd, Columbus OH 43220, US. The written notice must include the following information: (a) your name, address, phone number, and email address and (b) a statement that you wish to opt out of changes to the arbitration agreement. Such written notice does not constitute an opt out of arbitration altogether. By rejecting any future change to the arbitration agreement, you are agreeing that you will arbitrate any Dispute between us in accordance with the language of this version of the arbitration agreement.

16. Miscellaneous. You warrant and represent to Us that you have all necessary rights, power, and authority to agree to the terms and perform your obligations hereunder, and nothing contained in this Agreement or in the performance of such obligations will place you in breach of any other contract or obligation. The failure of either party to exercise in any respect any right provided for herein will not be deemed a waiver of any further rights hereunder. If any provision of this Agreement is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that the terms of this Agreement will otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. Any new features, changes, updates or improvements of the Program shall be subject to these terms unless explicitly stated otherwise in writing. We reserve the right to change these terms from time to time. Any updates to this Agreement shall be communicated to you. Prior to such communication, the terms of this Agreement in effect as last made available to you immediately prior to your receipt of the notice will continue to govern our relationship. You acknowledge your responsibility to review this Agreement from time to time and to be aware of any such changes. By continuing to participate in the Program after any such changes, you accept this Agreement, as modified.

Artisan Eats
Do Not Call Policy: Text Messaging

Regulatory Summary Regarding The Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA)

The federal Telephone Consumer Protection Act (TCPA), related FCC regulations, and related court interpretations protect consumers from specific types of telemarketing. Under the TCPA “telemarketing” is defined as “the initiation of a telephone call or message for the purpose of encouraging the purchase or rental of, or investment in, property, goods, or services, which is transmitted to any person.” 47 C.F.R. § 64.1200(f)(13). The TCPA imposes requirements for cold calls, prerecorded sales calls, and the use of autodialers. The TCPA also authorized the creation of the National Do Not Call Registry as well as internal Do Not Call lists. Various states have also adopted their own telemarketing laws.

Artisan Eats is committed to complying with federal and state Do Not Call laws. This policy relates specifically to our compliance with those requirements for the purposes of sending text messages that constitute telemarketing. It is Our policy to not send telemarketing text messages to:

  • Any telephone number for which we have not received prior express written consent, as defined by the Federal Communications Commission; and
  • Any telephone number on Our Internal Do Not Call List.

We will maintain an Internal Do Not Call list and will promptly honor a request made in a reasonable manner to place your telephone number Our Do Not Call list within a reasonable time of such request, not to exceed 10 business days from the date of said request. To be placed on Our Do Not Call list, you may:

  • Reply STOP, END, CANCEL, REVOKE, OPT OUT, UNSUBSCRIBE, or QUIT to any mobile message from Us in order to opt out of the Program. Any other language used may not be recognized by Our system which may result in the request to opt-out not being processed.
  • Request to be put on Our list by contacting customer service at aeplatters@gmail.com and providing your name and telephone number.

Your telephone number shall be retained indefinitely on Our Do Not Call list unless you subsequently provide new prior express written consent to rejoin our SMS list. If you change your number, you must request for the new number to be put on Our Do Not Call list.
