WELCOME MESSAGE:
Loblaws Inc., together with its parents, subsidiaries and affiliates (hereinafter referred to as “us”, “we”, “our” and/or “Loblaw”) is pleased to provide this website for your personal use and, only when authorized by us, commercial use. By using this website, you are agreeing to be legally bound by these Terms and Conditions (the "Terms”) and to comply with all applicable laws and regulations as they may change from time to time. IF YOU DO NOT ACCEPT AND AGREE TO BE LEGALLY BOUND BY AND COMPLY WITH THESE TERMS, YOU ARE NOT PERMITTED TO ACCESS OR USE THE WEBSITE.
OUR RIGHT TO CHANGE THESE TERMS:
We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to modify all or a portion of these Terms at any time without further notice and without incurring any liability or obligation. If we do this, we will post the modified Terms on the website and will indicate at the top of this page the date these Terms were last revised. Your continued access to and/or use of the website after any such changes constitutes your acceptance of, and agreement to be legally bound by, these Terms as revised. It is your sole responsibility to regularly check the website to determine if there have been any changes to these Terms and to review such changes.
OUR RIGHT TO DISCONTINUE OR MODIFY THE WEBSITE:
You acknowledge and agree that we reserve the right at any time to modify or discontinue the whole, or any part of, the website, including any products or services offered thereon, without notice, and that we will not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, to you or any other person or entity for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of any such modification or discontinuance.
MAKING PURCHASES THROUGH THE WEBSITE:
By completing a purchase transaction (“Order”) on this website, you represent and warrant to Loblaw as follows:
You are responsible for the accuracy of all information that you provide to us; and
You are not breaching any contract, duty or law or infringing anyone’s intellectual property, privacy or other legal rights.
You may only make Orders through the website if you are of the age of legal majority in the province/territory where you reside. You may only purchase or order items for personal and, only when authorized by us, commercial use. Unless otherwise indicated, all dollar amounts on the website are in Canadian Dollars.
By completing an Order through the website, you are agreeing to pay, in full, the prices and all applicable taxes and shipping and handling fees specified in relation to your Order, either by credit card or other permitted payment method. Payments are processed by our third-party service provider and Loblaw does not collect your financial information.
We reserve the right to change the permitted methods of payment, including without limitation, the credit cards we are able to accept, at any time. If complete payment for your Order is not received by us, your Order will not be processed. If you do not complete or improperly complete your Order it may not be accepted or acknowledged. We will not be responsible or liable, directly or indirectly, to you or any other person or entity for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of your credit card issuer declining a transaction or for any technical failure by our third-party payment processing service provider.
All Orders made through this website will be subject to the terms and conditions relating to the purchase and/or use of the product or service in question. Pricing and other terms and conditions relating to the purchase and/or use of the product or service in question will be as stated in the applicable terms and conditions, and this information may be changed at any time without notice.
You will be billed for your Order at the time your Order is processed. You will be responsible for all applicable taxes related to your Order. Applicable taxes will be charged at the time you are billed. Applicable sales tax will also be applied to any shipping and handling charges. Taxes may depend on delivery location.
DELIVERY:
The estimated delivery time will be specified in your Order; however, as we use a third party to deliver Orders, it is possible that your Order will arrive before or after the estimated delivery time. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to deliver your Order as quickly as possible within the time period(s) indicated; however, we will not be responsible for any delays in delivery which are beyond our control. We reserve the right not to offer expedited or other forms of shipping.
Please note that multiple Orders may not always be shipped together. In addition, depending on the size of your Order you may receive several shipments to complete your Order.
OUR RIGHTS REGARDING ORDERS:
Without limiting the generality of these Terms, we reserve the right to limit or refuse any Order you place with us. Further, we reserve the right to verify the validity of all Orders and cancel any Order if we suspect or find evidence of fraud, tampering and/or any other violation of these Terms. We may, in our sole discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household or per Order. These restrictions may include Orders placed by or under the same credit card, and/or Orders that use the same billing and/or shipping address. We also reserve the right, in our discretion, not to ship items ordered or purchased through the website to certain addresses. In the event that we are unable to or choose not to ship an item, you will be notified accordingly and the amount for that item charged in relation to your Order will be reduced accordingly.
