Legal + Privacy

Welcome to our Legal page! Yes, we know, these things can be as dry as month-old corn starch but they're important so please take a moment. We’ve put everything in one place and made it easy for you to read and move around as needed.
Presented here are our six (6) company operating policies on a single page.

Use the buttons to jump to a specific Section as needed. You’ll find the latest revision dates at the beginning of each Section.

We believe these policies to be compliant, fair, and transparent in all regards. We are committed to protecting your privacy, clearly explaining how We do business and what Our expectations of you are, being open about whom we do business with, explaining how you may and may not use our content, and having websites that are accessible to all. We have crafted our policies to reflect all these thoughts.

GENERAL

Last Updated: 14 March 2023

FEAST Brands, LLC, is a limited liability company ("We", "Us”, “Our”, or "FEAST") registered in the State of Maryland in the United States. My FEAST & Me is a related blog site owned and managed by FEAST Brands, LLC. The website addresses are www.feast-brands.com and www.feast-brands.com respectively (collectively, the “Sites” and individually, the “Site”). Both Sites and Our related social media contain informational material primarily related to the art of food and culinary entrepreneurship (collectively, the “Content").

Your access to the Sites’ Content, related social media, and any associated stores or interactive features (collectively, the "Services") is subject to Our six (6) company operating policies: General, Privacy + Cookies, Terms of Use, Disclaimers & Disclosures, Copyright & Usage, and Accessibility.

IN A NUTSHELL, BY BROWSING, ACCESSING, REGISTERING FOR, FOLLOWING, DOWNLOADING INFORMATION OR PURCHASING MERCHANDISE FROM, OR OTHERWISE INTERACTING WITH ANY OF OUR SITES OR RELATED SOCIAL MEDIA, YOU AGREE TO THE SIX (6) COMPANY OPERATING POLICIES PRESENTED HEREIN (COLLECTIVELY, THE "TERMS").

You represent that you are at least 18 years old and are able to enter into these Terms.

If you discover you are not particularly enamored with Our Terms, you should not use the Sites or related social media in any way.

FEAST Brands, LLC Consulting Agreement
Clients who enter into a formal consulting agreement with FEAST Brands, LLC (yea! let's start a food business!) have unique terms and conditions that may contradict these Terms. For example, a formal consulting agreement may permit the use of certain recipes or copyrighted material owned by Us. If a provision of a formal consulting agreement is found to conflict with any of these Terms, the terms in the formal consulting agreement will apply.

Modifications
We may change or amend any of these Terms at any time without formal promulgation (what a great word!). You'll be able to tell if We've changed or amended anything by the presence of a new effective date at the beginning of any affected Section. Any subsequent use of the Sites or Services by you means you've accepted these changes or amendments. We also may modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Sites and any related social media, or any features or portions thereof, without formal promulgation (used it again!).

No Third-Party Beneficiaries
These Terms are for the benefit of, and will only be enforceable by you and Us. No besties, no BFFs can get involved. Nothing here is intended to involved a third party in any way.

Miscellaneous
No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created as a result of these Terms, nor do you have any authority to bind Us in any respect whatsoever. It is what it is.

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Us regarding the use of Our Sites and related social media. Just because we decline to exercise or enforce a particular Term now does not constitute a waiver because the next time we might.

These Terms are not assignable, transferable, or sublicensable by you, except with Our written consent. You can't pass these off on someone else.

Major and minor headings used to separate the Terms herein do not have any substantive meaning or interpretive value. They are simply here to make a very dry technical document easier to read.

Governing Law
Any claim relating to FEAST Brands, LLC’s Sites or related social media must be governed by the laws of the State of Maryland without regard to its conflict of law provisions. All interactions between Us regarding any disputes or controversies will be here in the Old Line State.

Arbitration
If the Parties are unable to resolve any dispute or controversy through informal negotiations arising out of or relating to any interpretation, construction, performance, termination or breach of these Terms, the dispute or controversy will be settled by final and binding arbitration by a single arbitrator to be held in Westminster, Maryland, in accordance with the American Arbitration Association national rules for resolution of employment disputes then in effect, except as provided herein. The arbitrator selected shall have the authority to grant any party all remedies otherwise available by law, including injunctions, but shall not have the power to grant any remedy that would not be available in a state or federal court. The arbitrator shall have the authority to hear and rule on dispositive motions (such as motions for summary adjudication or summary judgment). The arbitrator shall have the powers granted by Maryland law and the rules of the American Arbitration Association which conducts the arbitration, except as modified or limited herein.

Severability
If any individual provision of these Terms is held by an arbitrator or court of competent jurisdiction to be void, invalid, or otherwise unenforceable, that provision must be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so as not to affect the remaining provisions that must otherwise remain in full force and effect and enforceable. Basically, one stale ingredient can't bring down the whole bouillabaisse.

How To Contact Us
Should you have any questions or concerns regarding our Sites or these Terms, you may contact Us at info(at)feast-brands.com and we'll reply timely .

We also use cookies for purposes such as maintaining continuity during an online session, gathering data about the use of Our Sites, monitoring online promotions, and anti-fraud and information security purposes. We may allow third parties, advertising companies, and ad networks ("Advertisers") to display advertisements on our Sites. Advertisers may use tracking technologies, such as cookies, to collect information about users who view or interact with their advertisements. Our Sites do not provide any personally identifiable information to these Advertisers, but they may collect information about where you, or others who are using your computer, saw or clicked on the advertisements they delivered, and possibly associate this information with your subsequent visits to the advertised websites. They also may combine this information with personal information they collect directly from you. The collection and use of that personal information are subject to the particular Advertiser’s privacy policy.

Embedded Content From Other Websites
OUR SITES AND RELATED SOCIAL MEDIA MAY CONTAIN EMBEDDED CONTENT (E.G., VIDEOS, IMAGES, ARTICLES, ETC.). Embedded content from other websites behaves in the exact same way as if you had visited the other website directly.

Links to Other Sites
OUR SITES AND RELATED SOCIAL MEDIA MAY CONTAIN LINKS TO AFFILIATE AND OTHER WEBSITES. We do not claim nor accept responsibility for any privacy policies, practices, or procedures of these other websites. Therefore, if you choose to visit one of these other websites, We encourage you read and understand their privacy statements. This Privacy Policy applies only and solely to the information collected by OUR Sites and related social media. Through affiliate links, identifying information may be carried over to an outside website to show that you visited that website from our Sites to ensure proper commissions are issued.

My FEAST & Me, through FEAST Brands, LLC is, or may in the future become, a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for websites to earn advertising fees by advertising and linking to Amazon.com .

Whom We Share Your Data With
We contract with the third parties listed in the table above to supply products and services, and hopefully provide a more enjoyable user experience on our behalf. These may include payment processing, delivery of goods, search engine facilities, advertising, and marketing. In some cases, these parties may require access to some or all of your data. When that is the case, We take all reasonable steps to ensure that your data is handled safely, securely, and in accordance with the law.

How Long We Retain Your Data
If you leave a comment on the My FEAST & Me Site, the comment and its metadata are retained indefinitely. This is so We can recognize and approve any follow-up comments automatically instead of holding them in a moderation queue.

We may allow you to register on our Sites now or in the future. If that feature is available, We store the personal information you provide in your user profile. You can see, edit, or delete your personal information at any time (except you typically cannot change your username without contacting Us). Website administrators can also see and edit that information.

Information collected using Google Analytics may be retained for the current system limit of up to 26 months.

Information submitted through forms, such as email forms or contact forms is retained until such a time as you choose to unsubscribe or invoke your right under the General Data Protection Regulation to be forgotten.

What Rights You Have Over Your Data

Rights of California Residents
If you reside in California, the California Consumer Protection Act gives you the right to ask if We sell or disclose your personal information to third parties. WE DO NOT SELL PERSONAL INFORMATION TO THIRD PARTIES, NOR HAVE WE EVER SOLD PERSONAL INFORMATION IN THE PAST. California law also gives you the right to opt out of such sales, however, in this case, it’s a moot point because We don’t do that.

DISCLAIMERS & DISCLOSURES

Last Updated: 20 March 2023

Culinary Information
You are fully responsible for any actions you take and any consequences that may occur as a result of any Content you read or consume on the Sites and any related social media managed by Us. The Sites and related social media may provide limited and approximate nutritional Content or other information or data through blog posts, sample product descriptions, or otherwise for convenience and as a courtesy only. Nutritional data is gathered primarily from the USDA Food Composition Database by way of MasterCook culinary software or other online calculators.

Please note nutritional data can vary for any particular recipe based on factors such as precision of measurements, brands, ingredient freshness, similar-but-not-same ingredient, end-use of sauces, marinades, dressings, and reductions, or the source of the data. We obviously strive to keep all Content as accurate as possible but make no warranties regarding its accuracy.

Also, no statements contained in Our Content have been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. Nothing about the Content is intended to cure, prevent, diagnose, or treat any disease. You should consult your personal healthcare provider regarding any health-related decisions including altering your diet in any way. We must not be liable for adverse reactions or any other outcomes resulting from following the information found in the Content. Any action(s) you take based on the Content is strictly at your own risk. We are not liable for any losses or damages related to actions or failure to act related to the Content on the Sites and related social media.

Professional Disclaimers
No employee of Ours is professionally trained in medicine or as a professional dietitian or nutritionist. Any culinary recommendations made by Us about food preparation or otherwise are made based on our research or personal experience, and are most likely applicable, but must not be construed as medical, dietary, or nutritional advice.

Note: We occasionally consult with professional dietitians and nutritionists to offer the best Content we can. We can readily refer you to any of them, however, the relationship must be strictly between you and the dietitian or nutritionist, who will warrant their own credentials and experience independently of Us. We must not under any circumstances play any role in that relationship beyond the referral. It is your sole responsibility to assess the appropriateness of the dietitian’s or nutritionist’s advice.

No employee of Ours is trained as a professional lawyer or government regulator. Any business recommendations made by Us about business formation, government regulations, human resources matters, or otherwise are made based on our research or personal experience, and are most likely applicable, but must not be construed as legal or regulatory advice.

Case Studies & Testimonials
We may present case studies and testimonials about other people’s experiences with Our Sites and related social media, recipes, products, and Services for example only. The testimonials, examples, and photos used are of actual users, clients, or customers. No TV doctors used.

Testimonials and case studies are not intended to represent or guarantee that one individual’s current or future efforts will achieve the same or even similar results as any other individual's. Rather, they represent what is possible for illustrative purposes only.

Links
We have not reviewed the entirety of any external website links on Our Sites and related social media, and are not responsible for the contents of any such linked websites. The inclusion of any link does not imply endorsement by Us. Use of any such linked website is at the user’s own risk.

Other Disclaimers
Except as expressly provided, the Sites, including all Content, and services provided on or in connection with the Sites are provided on an "AS IS" and "WITH ALL FAULTS" basis without representations, warranties or conditions of any kind, either express or implied. WE DISCLAIM ALL OTHER REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, CONDITIONS AND DUTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES, DUTIES OR CONDITIONS: (A) OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE OR USE, RESULTS, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT; AND (B) CREATED BY TRADE USAGE, COURSE OF DEALING OR COURSE OF PERFORMANCE.

In no event shall We or our suppliers be liable for any damages (including, without limitation, damages for loss of data or profit, or due to business interruption,) arising out of the use or inability to use the Content on the Sites and related social media, even if We have been notified of the possibility of such damage. Because some jurisdictions do not allow limitations on implied warranties, or limitations of liability for consequential or incidental damages, these limitations may not apply to you.

We do not represent or warrant that the Sites and related social media or our proxy servers are free of viruses or other harmful components.

Disclosures
We may accept advertising, sponsorship, paid insertions, and other forms of compensation from advertisers. Compensation may come from sponsored posts, or advertisements generated by third-party ad networks.

Our Sites and related social media may also contain affiliate links, meaning We receive commissions for purchases made through those links, at no cost to you. Please understand that we have experience with all of these companies and recommend them because they are helpful and useful, not because of the small commissions we make if you decide to buy something from them. These affiliate relationships and links are clearly identified where applicable.

We may also receive compensation or free product to provide our expert opinion on related products, services, or other topics. Any opinions expressed on the Site and related social media are Ours unless clearly indicated otherwise, and are intended to provide information We think you would find helpful. If you feel it necessary, verify Our representations with the manufacturer, provider, or appropriate government agency.

Note: In more than ten years as an executive chef, commercial kitchen manager, and now a partner in a culinary consulting business, I have seen a lot. When I say I only promote products and services I myself have used and stand by, I mean it. We are a business and do require revenue to exist, however, I am personally involved with all decisions regarding affiliates and sponsors. Compensation does not have a place in influencing the Content I create for the Site.

Revisions and Errors
Information provided on the Sites is subject to change. The Content on the Sites could include technical, typographical, or photographic errors. Try as we may to get it right every time, We do not warrant that any of the Content on the Sites and related social media, regardless of its source, is accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free. We do not represent or warrant that the Sites and related social media are accurate, complete, reliable, current, or error-free and assume no responsibility for such.

We may make changes to the Content on the Sites and related social media at any time without notice, however, we are not obligated to update any of the Content.

COPYRIGHT & USAGE

Last Updated: 07 March 2023

General Usage
Our overriding thought concerning any of Our material, which, by the way, represents years of effort, is that We want the My FEAST & Me Site to be the exclusive source for it. With that in mind, We must politely insist users place a mandatory and conspicuous attribution link back to the original source in all cases of use. All content on the Sites is legally copyrighted material of FEAST Brands, LLC or My FEAST & Me. United States and international copyright laws protect it. All rights reserved.

You may view and print any content displayed on the Sites ONLY for personal, non-commercial use. Copyright and attribution marks should remain intact and visible on printed material. You agree any other use whatsoever requires Our written permission (email Us your specific request at info(at)feast-brands.com).

Photography Policy
If you would like to use Our photography to promote one of Our recipes or My FEAST & Me in general (thank you very much!), you are welcome to share ONE photograph from the post. Link it back to the original FEAST & Me post as described above. Do NOT republish the recipe. Do not share more than one image from any single post without Our written permission (again, email Us your specific request).

If you would like to use Our photography or other content for anything else, you must request permission beforehand (again, email Us your specific request). We currently do not allow Our photography to be used as clip art or stock images.

Recipe Policy
We do NOT allow other websites or publications to directly publish Our recipes. As mentioned above, Our desire is that the My FEAST & Me Site remains the exclusive source for these. We do NOT allow anyone to syndicate Our recipes or posts.
Thank you for your understanding. Feel free to email Us at info(at)feast-brands.com to address any questions or permissions not clearly explained above.

ACCESSIBILITY

Last Updated: 20 March 2023

We are committed to ensuring the widest possible audience has complete access to our two websites, www.feast-brands.com and www.myfeastandme.com. This is an ongoing process that strives to stay abreast of the most currently accepted accessibility standards and best practices. It will evolve and improve over time as new technologies become available.

Specifically, we look to the four principles of the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines for input on design and website functionality. In most instances, we can apply most or all to design and content decisions. The four principles we seek to integrate into Our Sites are:

PERCEPTION Present information in ways users can perceive, e.g., able to adjust font size or read alt text for images.
OPERABILITY Navigation and other interfaces are operable in ways users can operate them, e.g., perform some interactions using keyboard or voice commands.
UNDERSTANDABILITY Navigation is consistent and understandable, e.g., direction is clear and controls are easy to use.
ROBUSTNESS A wide range of assistive technologies can absorb robust content, e.g., content that evolves alongside new devices and tools.

This policy applies only to our two websites. Unfortunately, we cannot vouch for any third-party websites we may link to in the Content.

Please note some of our content may not yet be fully compliant. This may be the result of pending technological developments or otherwise. That said, we have taken deliberate steps where we can to ensure a clean, easy-to-navigate and understand browsing experience. This includes using content software that is already optimized for accessibility. If you discover any part of our website to be inaccessible for you, please let us know right away by emailing us at info(at)feast-brands.com so we can take a look and find a remedy.
