1.3 The Services encompass all aspects of the website, apps, and other products, including all products, Software and other applications, features, channels and services offered therein.

1.4 "Content" includes all forms and media — such as text, software, scripts, graphics, photos, sounds, music, videos, audiovisual combinations, interactive features and other materials — viewable or contributed through the Services.

1.5 Users must be at least 18 years old, or of legal age where required. The Services are not directed to children and are not monitored as such under COPA.

1.6 All information exchanges occur electronically via the internet. Users remain responsible for obtaining the equipment and internet access required and for the security of their connections.

1.7 The Company is privately owned and does not represent any governmental authority.

1.8 The Company reserves the right to require separate agreements for additional products, services, or content purchases.

1.9 Visitors can view recipes on the website and access Jow Recipes by generating a demo menu.

1.10 The Company operates as a neutral platform connecting Users with Merchants. The Company does not guarantee or warrant the reliability, quality or suitability of such third-party services or Merchants, and Users assume the risks of their transactions. Jow uses algorithms to match products to selected recipes and may present Merchants based on partnerships or promotional arrangements.

1.11 The Company may run special promotions, offers, and referral programs with posted terms, subject to change, availability limitations, and qualifications.

1.12 Merchants offering portions of the Services to customers must disclose responsibility distinctions, liability limitations and compliance requirements, and indemnify the Company from related disputes or allegations.

1.13 JOWZI AI Assistant & AI-Powered Features

The JOWZI conversational module is a personal assistant augmented by artificial intelligence. When the User interacts with it, they are interacting with one or more Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems. The responses, recipe suggestions, product proposals, cart modifications and, more generally, the content generated by the assistant are produced, in whole or in part, by AI systems.

The AI systems implemented in JOWZI are intended to help the User build a shopping cart tailored to the preferences they express in natural language. To provide their personal shopper experience, JOW offers recipes as well as a conversational experience powered by AI, including:

  • a conversational assistant that responds to the User's requests;
  • AI-generated recipe suggestions and product proposals;
  • AI-generated summaries of online reviews displayed on recipe pages;
  • AI-generated images and other generated content.

The content generated by the assistant is identifiable as such because of the explicitly conversational nature of the service. The User acknowledges that this generated content does not constitute information verified by a human on a case-by-case basis, but is rather the probabilistic output of an AI system.

To operate the service, the AI systems process, in particular, the User's prompts (text or voice), the current browsing context, the declared preferences (dietary preferences, utensils, household) and the order history within the JOW and JOWZI ecosystems.

The User may report any generated content they consider inaccurate, inappropriate or contrary to these Terms to JOW through the chat tool or at support@jow.fr.

1.14 Referral Program — Additional Terms

On the Platform, the User has the possibility of referring a Visitor. The referring User and the referred Visitor may benefit respectively from a Referral Code, applicable to any Order on the Platform, with no minimum Order.

The referred Visitor may use their Referral Code in connection with their first Order. If the referred Visitor is already a JOW User and has an Account, they cannot benefit from the Referral Code. The Referral Code is issued exclusively by JOW and is independent of the promotions implemented by the Merchants; it cannot be used on the Merchant's online sales website. Referral Codes are limited in time according to the conditions defined for each Referral Offer, which can be viewed on the "Referral" page of the Platform.

Any User having an Account on the Platform may refer a Visitor, on the condition of having placed a first Order on the Platform. The User must access the "Referral" page of the Platform to obtain the Referral Code and send it by one of the means offered by JOW. If the Visitor completes the referral procedure, the referring User will be credited with the amount indicated by JOW at the time of sending the Referral Code.

To benefit from the Referral Code, the Visitor must access the Platform, log in with an Account or create one, and enter the Referral Code at the time of their first Order. In the event of fraud or abuse, JOW reserves the right to suspend or terminate the referral program.

It is strictly prohibited to create several Accounts with the Merchants in order to benefit from several Referral Codes, as well as to self-refer. The benefit of the Referral Code is limited to one (1) per week and per User, regardless of the number of Accounts they hold with the Merchants. A User connecting to the Platform with several Merchant Credentials in order to benefit several times from a Referral Code during the same period of seven (7) days would be in breach of these Terms. In this case, the User acknowledges and accepts that JOW will be entitled to refuse the benefit of the Referral Code, or to re-invoice the User for the amount they unduly benefited from, regardless of the reason invoked.

1.15 My JOW Card Loyalty Program

JOW offers all Users who have an account with the Merchants the ability to benefit on the Platform from a dematerialized loyalty card, "My JOW Card". This loyalty program enables Users to:

  • Credit the JOW Card by ordering Products marked with a discount on the Merchant websites (hereinafter "to credit the Pot"). Only discounts accompanied by the mention "JOW Card" (hereinafter "the Discount Coupon") allow the Pot to be credited. The credited amount corresponds to the amount of the Discount Coupon applied to the Product concerned;
  • Use the funds available on the JOW Card by clicking "Use the card" at the time of the summary of a future Order on the chosen Merchant website. The User can thus spend all or part of the Pot available on the JOW Card to order a Product from a Merchant (hereinafter "to redeem from the Pot"). The User may at any time cancel the use of the Pot up until payment of the Products.

The User is expressly informed that the available Pot may be used in addition to the Codes offered by JOW. The User may, at any time, view their Pot by clicking on "My JOW Card".

Each Discount Coupon has a validity period specified on the descriptive sheet of that Coupon. At the end of this period, the Discount Coupon is considered expired and can no longer be used by the User. Consequently, the User undertakes to carefully read the information appearing on the descriptive sheets of the Discount Coupons.

7.6 AI Features — Deployer Status & Limitation of Liability

With regard to the artificial intelligence (AI) features implemented on the Platform, JOW acts as a deployer of an artificial intelligence system within the meaning of Article 3(4) of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 ("AI Act"). As such, JOW is bound by a general obligation of means.

JOW implements appropriate human oversight of the artificial intelligence features, in particular for monitoring incidents and handling reports submitted by Users.

The User acknowledges and accepts that the content generated by these features may contain inaccuracies, omissions or biases inherent in the probabilistic nature of the artificial intelligence models used.

The User may report any generated content they consider inaccurate, inappropriate or contrary to these Terms to JOW at support@jow.fr.

The User acknowledges and accepts that the AI systems implemented in JOWZI may have intrinsic limitations, including, without limitation: hallucinations (the generation of inaccurate or fictitious information), biases, classification errors, omissions, misinterpretation of a prompt, suggestions unsuited to the context or to actual preferences, unavailability, latency, or incomplete responses.

JOW provides no warranty as to the accuracy, completeness, relevance, error-free nature or suitability of the generated content for the User's particular needs. The assistant's suggestions, recommendations and proposals constitute decision-making support and cannot replace the User's personal judgement. Before validating any order or taking any action having consequences for the User (payment, delivery, pickup, consumption), the User undertakes to check the contents of their cart and the nature of the products offered (quantities, packaging, prices, ingredients, allergens) and their conformity with the User's needs.

Recipe or product suggestions generated by the assistant do not in any way constitute medical, dietary or nutritional advice. It is the User's responsibility, in particular in the event of an allergy, intolerance, pathology or specific diet, to verify with the Merchant and on the product packaging the absence of any ingredient incompatible with their situation. JOW disclaims all liability for any allergic reaction, intolerance, health impairment or dietary consequence resulting from the consumption of a product suggested or added to the cart by the assistant.

Without prejudice to the mandatory provisions applicable for the benefit of the consumer, JOW cannot be held liable for:

  • errors, hallucinations, omissions, biases, unsuitability or inaccuracies of the content generated by the AI systems;
  • the consequences resulting from the User following a suggestion, recommendation or response of the assistant without verification;
  • the consequences resulting from a decision taken by the User on the basis of an AI-generated summary of reviews without having consulted the original comments accessible on the recipe page;
  • damages resulting from an erroneous indication concerning the composition of a product, the presence of an allergen or the compatibility of a product with a particular diet or health condition;
  • indirect or intangible damages (commercial loss, loss of opportunity, harm to image) resulting from the use of the AI features;
  • malfunctions arising from the third-party models or services used to implement these features, nor modifications of these models decided upon by their providers.

JOW reserves the right to modify, suspend or withdraw any artificial intelligence feature at any time, in particular to take account of regulatory developments, the quality of the models or technical constraints.

The User may report any generated content they consider inaccurate, inappropriate or contrary to these Terms to JOW at support@jow.fr.

Duration of Terms

8.1 This Agreement remains in effect until either party terminates it. Sections III through XV survive termination with respect to prior use of the Services.

After termination of this Agreement for any reason, you understand and acknowledge that Company will have no further obligation to provide the Services or access thereto. Upon termination, all licenses cease except the licenses granted by Company to you, and certain obligations (including payment obligations) survive.

Modification of Terms

If you object to any such changes, your sole recourse will be to terminate this Agreement. Continued use of the Services indicates your acknowledgment of and agreement to the changes.

9.2 Company reserves the right to modify the reward values for in-app gamification challenges at any time. Users completing challenges must claim them to receive the associated reward value. Until claimed, this value can change.

Modifications to Services

10.1 Company reserves the right to modify or discontinue the Services at any time, with or without notice, including by adding or removing features and functionality. In the event of such modification or discontinuation of the Services, your sole remedy shall be to terminate this Agreement as set forth herein.

Ownership

11.1 Company and its vendors retain all right, title, and interest in and to the Services, the website, the information, content, software, materials, text, images, videos, logos, audio, look and feel, brands, data compilations, and usage data. We own the rights to any metadata we collect from or about your use of the Services. Company reserves the right to create and market public indexes and analyses derived from such data. You may not copy, reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works without our prior written consent.

11.2 All website and Services content is the property of Company or third parties and is protected by copyright as a collective work and/or compilation under U.S. copyright laws and international conventions.

You agree, however, that (i) by submitting unsolicited ideas to us, you automatically forfeit your right to any intellectual property rights in such ideas; and (ii) unsolicited ideas submitted to us or any of our employees or representatives automatically become our property.

11.4 AI-Generated Content and User Prompts

Subject to any rights of the providers of the AI systems and to the applicable mandatory provisions, JOW grants the User, on the content generated by the assistant in response to their prompts, a right of use for personal, non-commercial purposes and within the context of the normal use of the service. The User undertakes not to exploit, redistribute, publish or use the generated content for commercial purposes, for training other AI systems, or for building datasets.

User Prompts and Contributions. The User warrants that their prompts, voice requests and, more generally, any contribution submitted to the assistant do not infringe the rights of third parties. The User grants JOW, free of charge, exclusively and worldwide, the right to use their prompts and interactions for the purposes of performing the Services, the normal operation of the service, quality measurement and continuous improvement.

International Users

The Services operate from the United States, and Company makes no representation regarding their availability outside the U.S. Access remains subject to this Agreement regardless of location. You must comply with U.S. export laws and regulations, plus applicable laws in your access jurisdiction. Personal information collected may be stored and processed on U.S. servers or in other countries where Company maintains facilities. You consent to such transfers outside your country of residence.

Third-Party Content and Services

Company disclaims editorial control over third-party-supplied content, including advertisements. Opinions and information from third parties reflect their views, not Company's. You correspond with third parties at your own risk; Company bears no responsibility for the accuracy or reliability of such content. The Services may integrate third-party services via APIs or extensions without Company affiliation or endorsement, and you must review and comply with the applicable third-party terms independently. Company utilizes social logins (e.g., Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Google) as third-party services without creating any endorsement. You may encounter inaccurate or objectionable content and waive legal remedies regarding such exposure. Company provides links to third-party websites without endorsement or warranty regarding any transactions. Certain third parties (e.g., Apple, Google, Microsoft) qualify as third-party beneficiaries when you access the Services through their devices, subject to their respective terms of service.

Digital Millennium Copyright Act

Copyright owners may submit DMCA notifications to Company's Copyright Agent containing: the signature of an authorized person; identification of the infringed copyrighted work(s); identification of the infringing material and its location; contact details; a good-faith belief statement; and an accuracy statement made under penalty of perjury. Company's designated notification method is email to customer@jow.com. Users receiving a content-removal notice may submit a counter-notice containing: a physical or electronic signature; identification of the removed content and its prior location; a good-faith belief that the removal resulted from mistake or misidentification; name, address, telephone and email; consent to jurisdiction; and acceptance of service. Upon receipt of a counter-notice, Company may restore the content within ten (10) business days unless the copyright owner files a court action.

Class Action Waiver and Arbitration

15.1 Except for Excluded Disputes or where contrary to applicable law, all disputes between you and Jow regarding your relationship — including matters related to these Terms, use of the Services, and privacy/publicity rights — may be resolved through binding individual arbitration under the American Arbitration Association (AAA) rules for consumer disputes, with jury trial waived. You may alternatively bring a claim in local small claims court if permitted. Claims must be brought individually only; you cannot participate in class actions, class-wide arbitrations, private attorney general claims, or consolidated claims involving another person's account. This provision is governed by the U.S. Federal Arbitration Act. If the AAA cannot schedule a hearing within 160 days, either party may elect Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (JAMS) instead. Arbitrators cannot award damages conflicting with these Terms.

You may opt out within 30 days of first becoming subject to this provision by written notice to: 160 Greentree Dr. #101, Dover, DE 19904, or customer@jow.com, including your name, residence address, account email, and a clear opt-out statement.

15.2 A counter-notice must include your name, residence address, email, and a statement consenting to federal court jurisdiction in Delaware. If the class-action prohibition is found unenforceable, that language becomes void. This arbitration agreement survives termination of your relationship with Jow.

Miscellaneous

16.1 You must comply with all applicable laws and regulations. You cannot assign your rights or obligations; any attempted sublicense, assignment, or transfer is void. If Jow is sold, the sale does not constitute a transfer of personal information, provided the buyer assumes Jow's obligations under these Terms and the Privacy Policy. This Agreement is governed by Delaware law, excluding conflict-of-law principles, and you submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Dover, Delaware. This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and supersedes prior agreements. Company's failure to enforce any right does not constitute a waiver. If any provision is found invalid, the courts should effectuate the parties' intentions and the remaining provisions stay in effect. Any claim must be filed within three (3) months of arising or be forever barred.

Paid Subscription (In-app Purchases)

17.1 Automatic Renewal. Any paid subscription taken out by the User is automatically renewed after its expiry date until terminated by the User. You must manage subscriptions through the Google Play Store or the Apple Store directly.

17.2 Refund Policy. There are no refunds or credits for partially used membership periods. Jow may grant refunds on a case-by-case basis at its sole discretion; one grant does not obligate future refunds. Cancellation allows continued access through the end of the current billing period.

Challenges

18.1 Definition. "Challenges" are offerings on jow.com and the Jow application, characterized by a description, an emoji or image, and a dollar reward amount. Challenges are merchant-independent, with consistent amounts across connected merchants.

18.2 Participation. Challenges are available to users without prior orders who log into Jow with merchant accounts. They are free and not mandatory for platform access or ordering.

18.3 Accessibility and Rewards. Challenge visibility depends on a user's order history; new challenges unlock based on completed orders or previous challenges. Users must claim rewards within one month of completion to earn money on the Jow Card; after this period, completed challenges yield unclaimed winnings. Earned amounts function as free coupons, usable for three months from collection. All accumulated challenge winnings appear in user profiles under "Promo & Loyalty Advantages." Jow exclusively creates and edits all platform challenges, reserving the right to modify descriptions, reward amounts, and expiration dates. Challenges no longer displayed become unavailable and can no longer be completed.

18.4 Challenge Rewards — Mechanics

The User has the option of viewing certain Challenges according to their number of orders and of unlocking new Challenges. The Challenges to be unlocked depend either on a number of orders to be completed, or on specific previous Challenges to be completed.

Once a Challenge is completed, the User has one (1) month to credit their winnings to the Pot (counted from the completion date). Beyond this period, the Challenge will remain completed but the winnings will no longer be recoverable.

Once a Challenge is completed and credited to the Pot, the winnings are added to the JOW Card. The Pot can be used by the User each time an order is placed, through the use of a free coupon. The free coupon linked to a completed Challenge can be used for three (3) months from the date it is recovered.

All amounts accumulated through the Challenges, and credited to the Pot on the JOW Card, are available in the User's profile, in the "Promo & Loyalty Benefits" section.

JOW is the only operator able to create and edit Challenges across the entire platform. JOW reserves the right to modify the description and/or the reward amount of a Challenge at any time, as well as its end date (expiration date). A Challenge that is no longer displayed in the area of ongoing Challenges is no longer available and can no longer be completed.
