COMPLETE AGREEMENT
ECOMMERCE
Some of our Sites may allow you to purchase products directly on them (“eCommerce Sites”). Although we have a variety of eCommerce Sites that sell different types of products and services, the provisions of this Agreement apply to all of them.
Refunds, returns, and exchanges will not be issued for products that have not been purchased directly through a Site. We reserve the right to deny a refund, return, and/or exchange if we determine that our policy is being abused. We may use any means available to us, including coordination with other companies, to determine if you are abusing our policy. This decision is made in our sole discretion and determination.
Orders
Some of our Sites may allow you to purchase products directly on them (“eCommerce Sites”). Although we have a variety of eCommerce Sites that sell different types of products and services, the provisions of this Agreement apply to all of them.
We may make improvements and/or changes in products or services described on the Sites, add new features, or terminate a Site at any time without notice. We also: (a) reserve the right to change the goods and services advertised or offered for sale through an eCommerce Site, the prices or specifications of such goods and services, and any promotional offers at any time without any notice or liability to you or any other person; (b) cannot guarantee that goods or services advertised or offered for sale on a Site will be available when ordered or thereafter; (c) reserve the right to limit quantities sold or made available for sale; (d) do not warrant that information on a Site (including without limitation product descriptions, colors or photographs) is accurate, complete, reliable, current or error-free; and (e) reserve the right to modify, cancel, terminate or not process orders (including accepted orders) where the price or other material information on an eCommerce Site is inaccurate, where we have insufficient quantities to fulfill an order or for any other reason in our sole discretion. If we do not process an order for such reason, we will either not charge you or will apply credit to the payment type used in the order. Some jurisdictions may not allow the exclusions and disclaimers of certain implied warranties, so some of the provisions of this section may not apply to you. Unless otherwise indicated, products sold on the eCommerce Sites are intended for end use in the United States and are not labeled or intended for international distribution.
Your final total may vary based on item weights, sales prices, coupons and other variations. Please see our full Pricing Disclosure for more details.
Taxes: If we are legally required to collect sales tax on merchandise you order, the tax amount will be added automatically to your purchase price. On rare occasions an error in our tax database may cause the sales tax charge to be incorrect. If this happens, at any time up to two years from your date of purchase you may contact us for a refund of tax overcharges. This right to a refund is your exclusive remedy for sales tax errors.
Payment Processing: We may use a third-party payment processor to process your payment information, including your payment card data. Be aware that you may be subject to the third-party processor’s terms and your information may be subject to their privacy practices.

Curbside Pickup + Delivery
We offer the curbside pickup + delivery service to you so that you may order your grocery items online and have your order delivered right to your car at the store you select or via home delivery in certain locations. The curbside pickup + delivery service is only available at select stores and locations.
In order to use the curbside pickup + delivery service, you must create an Account. Once you have placed an order for curbside pickup + delivery services through your Account, we will send you an order acknowledgment by email setting out what you have ordered. This is not an order confirmation or acceptance from us.
By placing an order on a Site to utilize the curbside pickup + delivery service, you are offering to purchase the products you have selected. Our acceptance of the offer occurs at the time we deliver your order to you at pickup at your preferred local store, or, if your local store offers home delivery, at the time we prepare your order for delivery on the day delivery is scheduled. We will send you an electronic communication acknowledging receipt of your order including the items and quantities you selected, as well as an email reminding you of your pickup time.
We aim to deliver your goods within the delivery or pickup window you selected when placing your order, but do not guarantee that goods will be delivered or available for pickup on or by a certain date. Giant Eagle® will not be liable for delivering the goods outside of the requested delivery or pickup slot or failing to deliver or make available for pickup all or any of the goods in your order.
Payment
Pricing and product availability are estimates only and are subject to change without notice prior to delivery to your car or home. This means that if you schedule a delivery for a future date, the price of the products may change from the time you place your order online to the time that you arrive at the store to pick up your order, or when your order is processed for home delivery.
There may be a minimum order value, which may change from time to time. In addition to the price of goods, additional charges as shown at checkout will be payable by you. Such charges may include service fees for deliveries to your car or home, bottle deposits and single-use plastic bag fees applied at the time of order placement. Tipping is optional for Curbside services. All prices quoted are exclusive of tax and estimated when you place an order. The final taxes and applicable fees will be calculated on the day your order is picked up and/or delivered. In the event your order must be fulfilled using products of different weight or volume than what you ordered, you will be charged only for the actual weight or volume delivered.
Payment for curbside pickup + delivery services must be made online. Payment can be made via most major credit cards, Paypal, Masterpass, Giant Eagle® gift card, EBT or SNAP. You can save your credit card information to your Account. All relevant credit card information is encrypted with an aim to minimize instances of fraud. EBT payments may be required to be handled differently.
Your online payment will be processed when your order has been fully prepared for pickup or delivery. Valid digital coupons, promotions, or additional offers that are in effect at the time your payment is processed will be honored. Paper coupons will not be accepted for pickup or home delivery. You may edit or cancel your order online up until the earlier of the time your shopper starts to shop your order, or four hours prior to the pick-up or delivery time at no cost. In case of an emergency, you may be able to cancel your order by calling the curbside pickup + delivery department at your fulfillment location, which can be found in your order confirmation email.
When splitting transactions across various payment methods, SNAP payments are taken first, followed by any gift cards you may have, then any additional payment sources such as credit or debit cards.
SNAP Transactions
All SNAP transactions require a PIN and are authorized at the time of checkout. SNAP Funds will be withdrawn immediately upon placing your order. Your authorization cannot be increased after you check out. In the event of overages, funds will be returned to your SNAP account on your fulfillment date. If you cancel or edit an order to reduce the SNAP subtotal, a refund will be issued to your SNAP account immediately and you will receive a receipt that indicates your balance after the refund. If an order is edited to add new SNAP-eligible items post online checkout, an additional transaction will be created for the new items only.
If you have questions about a transaction or other SNAP details, please contact the number on the back of your SNAP card.
Product Availability and Substitutions
While we try to update our Sites when products are not available or are in limited supply, we cannot guarantee that the product you order, or the quantity you order will be in stock and available at the time your order is processed. We may revise and discontinue products at any time and are not responsible for typographical errors or misprints. At the time you place your order you will be given the opportunity to choose whether substituted products are acceptable in the event the product you order is temporarily out of stock or limited in quantity. You can also tell us not to make substitutions, in which case the unavailable product will not be included in your order. In the event the quantity you ordered is not available, we may elect to provide the available quantity along with some substituted product depending on your preference.
If we make a substitution to your order, a Team Member will text or call with an alternative option. If you accept the replacement, you will be charged the price of the replacement item. If you are unsatisfied with any substitutions, please contact Customer Care at 1-800-553-2324 or 1-866-620-0216 (Indianapolis Customers) for assistance.
Missing Products
If any product in your order for which you have paid is missing from the items you received please contact the store from which you picked up or placed your order, the address and telephone number of which appears on the receipt you receive with your order and/or by email. At our option the missing items will be made available to you for pickup or will be delivered to you instead of offering you a refund. Refunds will be credited to the payment card used to purchase the order.
Text Message Communications
As part of the curbside pickup + delivery service we ask you to provide a mobile telephone number that can be used to contact you regarding your order. We will use this number to call or send text message communications to communicate out of stock items and to recommend substitutions. Additionally, for pickup orders, you will receive a text message with a link to tell us when you are on your way to pick up your order. BY CLICKING THE LINK IN THE TEXT MESSAGE, YOU AGREE TO ACCEPT LOCATION SERVICES SO THAT CURBSIDE PICKUP + DELIVERY CAN DETERMINE WHEN YOU ARRIVE AT THE STORE. Message and data rates may apply. To opt-out of text messages, respond STOP and you will no longer receive these notifications. If you choose to no longer receive SMS notifications, you will no longer be able to take advantage of the text features. Please note these services may not be available at all locations.
Alcohol or Other Age-Restricted Products
We offer alcohol delivery to your car or home from select locations. If you are in the coverage area for this service, beer, wine and spiritous liquor may be available through the curbside pickup + delivery service. You must be 21 or older in order to place or receive an alcohol delivery to your car or home. You cannot use curbside pickup + delivery to order alcoholic products unless you are 21 years of age or older. curbside pickup + delivery cannot deliver alcohol products to any person who is not a lawful consumer. YOU AGREE THAT YOU WILL NOT USE CURBSIDE PICKUP + DELIVERY TO ORDER ALCOHOLIC PRODUCTS UNLESS YOU ARE 21 YEARS OF AGE OR OLDER AND YOU WILL COMPLY WITH ALL APPLICABLE LAWS RELATED TO YOUR PURCHASE, POSSESSION OR OTHER USE OF ALCOHOL AND WILL NOT CAUSE ANY OF THE COMPANY OR THIRD-PARTY DELIVERY CONTRACTORS TO CONTRAVENE OR VIOLATE ANY APPLICABLE LAWS. Upon delivery of alcohol products, the recipient agrees to provide valid government-issued photo identification to the delivery personnel.

We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to refuse delivery of such products and cancel that portion of the order if the legal requirements for delivery of alcohol are not met, or for any other reason.

DISPUTES, ARBITRATION AND CLASS ACTION WAIVER
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY – IT MAY SIGNIFICANTLY AFFECT YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
ARBITRATION USES A NEUTRAL ARBITRATOR INSTEAD OF A JUDGE OR JURY, ALLOWS FOR MORE LIMITED DISCOVERY THAN IN COURT, AND IS SUBJECT TO VERY LIMITED REVIEW BY COURTS. YOU MAY CHOOSE TO BE REPRESENTED BY A LAWYER IN ARBITRATION OR PROCEED WITHOUT ONE. THIS ARBITRATION PROVISION SHALL SURVIVE TERMINATION OF THIS AGREEMENT.
Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to this Agreement, other agreements on the Site, or the Privacy Notice, or the breach, termination, enforcement, interpretation or validity thereof, including the determination of the scope or applicability of this agreement to arbitrate, shall be either determined by binding arbitration in Pittsburgh, PA before one arbitrator or submitted to small claims court in Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, Civil Division. If the arbitrator finds this location to be unreasonably burdensome to you, a new location may be selected or arbitration may be conducted over the phone, using video conferencing, or similar. You may be entitled to an in-person hearing near your place of residence. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. Any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement shall be conducted in accordance with the expedited procedures set forth in the JAMS Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures as those Rules exist on the effective date of this Agreement, including Rules 16.1 and 16.2 of those Rules.
No Class Actions: YOU AND WE AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR OUR INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and we agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. If this specific provision is found to be unenforceable, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party’s individual claim.
Seeking Arbitration: If you elect to seek arbitration or file a small claim court action, you must first send to us, by certified mail, a written notice of your claim (“Notice”). The Notice to us must be addressed to: 101 Kappa Dr., Pittsburgh, PA 15238. If we initiate arbitration, we will send a written Notice to an email address you have previously provided to us, if available. We may also use any other means to contact you, including a message in your Account. A Notice, whether sent by you or by us, must (a) describe the nature and basis of the claim or dispute; and (b) set forth the specific relief sought (“Demand”). If you and we do not reach an agreement to resolve the claim within 30 days after the Notice is received, you or we may commence an arbitration proceeding or file a claim in small claims court. Arbitration forms can be downloaded from www.jamsadr.com. If you are required to pay a filing fee, after we receive Notice that you have commenced arbitration, we will promptly reimburse you for your payment of the filing fee, unless your claim is for greater than US$10,000 or the arbitrator determines the claims are frivolous, in which event you will be responsible for filing fees.
Hearing: If your claim is for US$10,000 or less, we agree that you may choose whether the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of documents submitted to the arbitrator, through a telephonic or video hearing, or by an in-person hearing as established by the JAMS Rules. If your claim exceeds US$10,000, the right to a hearing will be determined by the JAMS Rules. In the event that the arbitration will be conducted solely on the basis of submitted documents, the arbitrator’s decision and award will be made and delivered within six (6) months of the selection of the arbitrator, unless extended by the arbitrator. Except as expressly set forth herein, the payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the JAMS Rules.
Award: In the event arbitration awards you damages of an amount at least $100 greater than our last documented settlement offer, we will pay your awarded damages or $2,500, whichever is greater.
Injunctive Relief: Notwithstanding the foregoing, you and we both agree that you or we may sue in court to enjoin infringement or other misuse of intellectual property rights. In the event a court or arbitrator having jurisdiction finds any portion of this Agreement unenforceable, that portion shall not be effective and the remainder of the Agreement shall remain effective. No waiver, express or implied, by either party of any breach of or default under this Agreement will constitute a continuing waiver of such breach or default or be deemed to be a waiver of any preceding or subsequent breach or default.
Confidentiality: The parties shall maintain the confidential nature of the arbitration proceeding, all related documents, testimony, and other information exchanged during discovery, and the Award, including the hearing, except as may be necessary to prepare for or conduct the arbitration hearing on the merits, or except as may be necessary in connection with a court application for a preliminary remedy, a judicial challenge to an award or its enforcement, or unless otherwise required by law or judicial decision.
Governing Law and Rules: This Agreement and the rights of the parties hereunder shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, exclusive of conflict or choice of law rules. The parties acknowledge that this Agreement evidences a transaction involving interstate commerce. Notwithstanding the provision in the preceding paragraph with respect to applicable substantive law, any arbitration conducted pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C., Secs. 1-16). In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator is not empowered to award punitive or exemplary damages, except where permitted by statute, and the parties waive any right to recover any such damages. In any arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement, the arbitrator may not award any incidental, indirect or consequential damages, including damages for lost profits. The parties adopt and agree to implement the JAMS Optional Arbitration Appeal Procedure (as it exists on the effective date of this Agreement) with respect to any final award in an arbitration arising out of or related to this Agreement.
