Terms

Agreement

These Terms are a binding agreement between you and Botta Services LLC. Using the site, creating an account, placing an order, joining the Coffee Club, submitting a form, or continuing after a notice of these Terms constitutes acceptance. If you use the services on behalf of a company, you represent that you have authority to bind that company.

Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to create an account, place an order, or join the Coffee Club. You may not use the services if you are prohibited from doing so under United States law.

Electronic communications

You consent to receive notices, receipts, shipping updates, and other communications electronically at the email address you provide or through the site or account. Electronic notices satisfy any legal requirement that a communication be in writing.

Accounts

You are responsible for accurate account information, the security of your credentials, and all activity under your account. Notify us promptly of unauthorized use. We may refuse, suspend, or close an account if we reasonably believe it is used in violation of these Terms, for fraud, or in a way that creates risk to the business or other customers.

Investor and distributor access is granted only after approval, is personal, and may not be transferred. We may revoke that access when authorization ends.

Acceptable use

• Do not attempt to access another person’s account, orders, or private materials
• Do not interfere with the site, payment systems, or security controls
• Do not submit unlawful, deceptive, abusive, defamatory, or malicious content
• Do not scrape, harvest, or copy the site except as allowed by ordinary browser use
• Do not use the services to send spam or to reverse engineer our systems
• Do not copy or use Botta Coffee branding, photography, or copy without written permission

Orders and subscriptions

Purchases are also governed by our Terms of Sale and Shipping and Returns policy. Coffee Club subscriptions are also governed by our Subscription Terms. If those documents conflict with these Terms on a purchase issue, the purchase document controls for that issue.

Intellectual property

The site, applications, photography, writing, product presentation, logos, bag art, and other Botta Coffee materials are owned by Botta Services LLC or used with permission. No license is granted except the limited, revocable, non-transferable right to use the services for their intended personal or approved business purpose. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

Your submissions

If you send reviews, photos, comments, applications, or other content, you grant Botta Services LLC a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, and display that content in connection with the business. You represent that you have the right to grant that license and that the content is lawful. We may remove content that we reasonably believe violates these Terms.

Third-party services

The services rely on third parties such as Stripe, Firebase, Google Cloud, shipping carriers, and app stores. Those providers have their own terms. We are not responsible for their acts or omissions except as required by law.

Service changes

We may update, suspend, or discontinue a feature when needed for operations, security, legal compliance, or product changes. We do not promise uninterrupted or error-free availability. Scheduled or unscheduled downtime may occur.

Disclaimers

To the fullest extent permitted by law, the services are provided as is and as available, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. Coffee is an agricultural food product. We do not warrant that a roast will match a tasting note, photograph, or prior bag in every respect.

Nothing in these Terms limits any warranty or remedy that cannot be disclaimed under applicable law, including any non-waivable food safety obligation.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Botta Services LLC and its officers, members, employees, and agents are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or business interruption, arising from the services or any product, even if advised of the possibility.

Our total liability for any claim relating to the services or a product is limited to the amount you paid to Botta Coffee for the order or subscription period giving rise to the claim, or one hundred United States dollars if you have not paid us. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations. In those places, our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted.

Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Botta Services LLC and its officers, members, employees, and agents from claims, damages, losses, and reasonable expenses, including attorneys’ fees, arising out of your misuse of the services, your content, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of law or third-party rights.

Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia, without regard to conflict of law rules. Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us through the Contact page and try to resolve the dispute informally for at least thirty days.

Any dispute that is not resolved informally must be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Fulton County, Georgia, unless applicable law requires otherwise. You and Botta Services LLC consent to personal jurisdiction there.

Class action waiver

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you and Botta Services LLC agree to bring claims only in an individual capacity and not as a plaintiff or class member in any class, collective, or representative proceeding.

Changes and general terms

We may update these Terms. The date above shows the latest revision. Material changes will be posted on this page or sent through another appropriate notice. Continued use after the update is posted constitutes acceptance.

If a provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect. These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any purchase terms that apply, are the entire agreement on the subject. You may not assign these Terms without our consent. We may assign them in connection with a reorganization or sale of the business. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver.
