BAYBREAD.COM - TERMS & CONDITIONS OF USE


Customer Agreement

Welcome to BAYBREAD.COM. This Customer Agreement ("Agreement" or “Terms and Conditions”) is intended to be and, upon the conditions herein set forth, shall act as a binding, legal agreement between you and Bay Bread, LLC, (together with its subsidiaries and affiliates, collectively "Bay Bread," the “Company,” “We” or “Us”). This Agreement states the terms and conditions under which you may receive Bay Bread online services (“Service” or “Services”) and use the Baybread.com Web site ("Site"). Your use of the Services and the Site constitutes your agreement to the terms and conditions set forth below. We may amend the Agreement at any time by posting the amended terms on the Site. If you do not agree to these terms and conditions, do not use the Site or the Services.

Notwithstanding any contrary statements on the Site or elsewhere, these Terms and Conditions are the only agreement between you and the Company. By completing the on-line registration process, submitting each order and completing the checkout process, you acknowledge and confirm that you have read, understood and agree to these Terms and Conditions, and the form in which they appear at the time your on line transaction is processed. YOU FURTHER ACKNOWLEDGE THE COMPANY’S ADMONITION TO YOU THAT, IF YOU ARE UNSURE ABOUT ANY PART OF THIS AGREEMENT, YOU SEEK THE ADVICE OF LEGAL COUNSEL.

You agree that because of the nature of the Internet, the online shopping service is provided on an "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" basis. We are not liable to you if we are unable to supply a particular item. In such a case Bay Bread may be able to ship an adequate substitute product. If you authorize Bay Bread to select a substitute product, please indicate so on the order form. IF YOU WILL ACCEPT NO SUBSTITUTE, PLEASE INDICATE SO ON THE ORDER FORM AND WE WILL ADJUST YOUR ORDER ACCORDINGLY. ALL SALES ARE FINAL AND BAY BREAD DOES NOT REFUND.

We will make every attempt to deliver on all your orders; however, large orders of specific items will be fulfilled at the discretion of the store. For example, if you were to make an order of 50 Country Levain breads, which would potentially use up all of the then available stock of that product, the store may only be able to deliver 25 units.
