Welcome to Beans on Me. By creating an account or using the app, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the service.
1. What Beans on Me is
Beans on Me is a free community board that lets users post unclaimed misorders (drinks or food a coffee shop made that the original customer didn't take) so someone nearby can pick them up. We are not a delivery service, a marketplace, or a partner of any coffee shop unless explicitly stated. We do not handle, prepare, or transport food.
2. Eligibility
- You must be at least 13 years old (16 in the EU/UK) to use Beans on Me.
- You must provide accurate information when signing in.
- You are responsible for everything done through your account.
3. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Post fake or fraudulent misorders
- Claim a misorder you don't intend to actually pick up
- Use the app to harass, threaten, or impersonate anyone
- Post personal information about other people without consent
- Post content that is illegal, discriminatory, sexually explicit, or otherwise inappropriate
- Attempt to disrupt, reverse-engineer, or overload the service
- Use the app to sell goods or services or to advertise without our permission
We may remove content and suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules.
4. Food safety disclaimer
Beans on Me does not verify, prepare, inspect, or guarantee the safety of any food or drink posted on the service. Posts are user-generated. You acknowledge that:
- You pick up and consume any item at your own risk
- You should not consume anything that looks tampered with, expired, or unsafe
- Allergens, ingredients, and dietary information are the responsibility of the original coffee shop and the user who posted
- If you have severe allergies or dietary restrictions, do not rely on a stranger's post — verify directly with the shop
5. User content
You retain ownership of the text and photos you post. By posting, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, display, and distribute that content within the app for the purpose of operating the service. This license ends when your content is deleted (when you cancel within the 5-minute window after posting, or when you delete your account, which erases your posts and photos).
6. No affiliation with coffee shops
Beans on Me has no affiliation, sponsorship, or partnership with any coffee shop, café, or restaurant unless explicitly indicated in writing. Shop names mentioned in user posts are for identification only.
7. Account termination
You can delete your account at any time from the Profile screen. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or applicable law. Account deletion permanently erases your name, email, posts, and claims within 30 days.
8. Service availability
Beans on Me is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We don't guarantee that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or always available. We may change or discontinue features at any time.
9. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Beans on Me and its operators are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the service, including but not limited to damages from food or drink consumed via the service. Our total liability for any claim related to the service is limited to the amount you paid us in the previous 12 months (which, for a free service, is zero).
10. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will notify you via the app before the changes take effect. Continued use after the effective date means you accept the updated terms.
11. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Disputes will be resolved in the courts of New York County, NY.
