Do I have to grant any licenses to Parcel Universe Corp or to other users?
Anything you post, upload, share, store, or otherwise provide through the Services is your “User Submission.” Some User Submissions are viewable by other users. In order to display your User Submissions on the Services, and to allow other users to enjoy them (where applicable), you grant us certain rights in those User Submissions.

This is a license only – your ownership in User Submissions is not affected.
If you store a User Submission in your own personal Parcel Universe Corp account, in a manner that is not viewable by any other user except you (a “Personal User Submission”), you grant Parcel Universe Corp the license above, as well as a license to display, perform, and distribute your Personal User Submission for the sole purpose of making that Personal User Submission accessible to you and providing the Services necessary to do so.
If you share a User Submission only in a manner that only certain specified users can view (for example, a private message to one or more other users) (a “Limited Audience User Submission”), then you grant Parcel Universe Corp the licenses above, as well as a license to display, perform, and distribute your Limited Audience User Submission for the sole purpose of making that Limited Audience User Submission accessible to such other specified users, and providing the Services necessary to do so.
Also, you grant such other specified users a license to access that Limited Audience User Submission, and to use and exercise all rights in it, as permitted by the functionality of the Services. If you share a User Submission publicly on the Services and/or in a manner that more than just you or certain specified users can view, or if you provide us (in a direct email or otherwise) with any feedback, suggestions, improvements, enhancements, and/or feature requests relating to the Services (each of the foregoing, a “Public User Submission”), then you grant Parcel Universe Corp the licenses above, as well as a license to display, perform, and distribute your Public User Submission for the purpose of making that Public User Submission accessible to all Parcel Universe Corp users and providing the Services necessary to do so, as well as all other rights necessary to use and exercise all rights in that Public User Submission in connection with the Services and/or otherwise in connection with Parcel Universe Corp’s business for any purpose, including marketing and promotion. Also, you grant all other users of the Services a license to access that Public User Submission, and to use and exercise all rights in it, as permitted by the functionality of the Services.

Finally, you understand and agree that Parcel Universe Corp, in performing the required technical steps to provide the Services to our users (including you), may need to make changes to your User Submissions to conform and adapt those User Submissions to the technical requirements of connection networks, devices, services, or media, and the foregoing licenses include the rights to do so.
What if I see something on the Services that infringes my copyright?
You may have heard of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (the “DMCA”), as it relates to online service providers, like Parcel Universe Corp, being asked to remove material that allegedly violates someone’s copyright. We respect others’ intellectual property rights, and we reserve the right to delete or disable Content alleged to be infringing, and to terminate the accounts of repeat alleged infringers.
Who is responsible for what I see and do on the Services?

Will Parcel Universe Corp ever change the Services?
We’re always trying to improve the Services, so they may change over time. We may suspend or discontinue any part of the Services, or we may introduce new features or impose limits on certain features or restrict access to parts or all of the Services. We’ll try to give you notice when we make a material change to the Services that would adversely affect you, but this isn’t always practical.

Does Parcel Universe Corp cost anything for Clients?
Clients Fees. For each order submitted by a user, Client or Business Owner on the Parcel Universe Corp platform, the user, Client or Business Owner shall be responsible for paying: (i) the service fee set by the Parcel Universe Corp visible on the user, Client, Business Owner device screen or communicated by any other mean. The fee is calculated automatically for delivery services (“Premium Delivery Service Cost”). For orders that include the purchases of goods, the Client shall also be responsible for (ii) the cost of goods purchased from stores with the Parcel Universe Corp-issued credit or debit card (“Goods Purchased”) and (iii) a platform fee, which is five percent (5%) of the Goods Purchased (“Platform Fee”).

In addition, a $20 authorization hold will be placed on the Clients Payment Method at the time an order is placed. The authorization hold will be released when the order is completed, though may take 5-10 business days to be reflected on the Client’s Payment Method statement. If you are a Client, you understand and agree that if you submit an order on Parcel Universe Corp and then cancel the order before it is completed, you may owe still owe the Order Amount or cancellation fee (“Cancellation Fee”). The payment amount and other terms for Cancellation Fees are determined by each Business Owner in his or her sole discretion.
The Client is responsible for paying for all Goods Purchased and services that were requested by him or her when the order was placed, in addition to other items requested after. The Business Owner is not obligated to return any purchased items. The full purchase price of Goods Purchased by the Business Owner on behalf of Client is the Client’s responsibility, per the receipt issued to the Business Owner from the applicable store. Clients are entitled to receive the receipt for all purchases and can return any purchased items themselves, if permitted by the store-specific policies of those purchases. For any returns that are allowed by the Business Owner and by the store where the goods were purchased, Parcel Universe Corp will refund Client’s credit card for the refund amount within 15 business days of the refund being processed by the store.
Does Parcel Universe Corp Cost anything for Business Owners?
Business Owner Fees. Certain of our Services may be subject to payments now or in the future (the “Paid Services”). Please see Parcel Universe Corp.com for a description of the current Paid Services. Please note that any payment terms presented to you in the process of using or signing up for a Paid Service are deemed part of this Agreement. For completed orders that are successfully paid by Clients and subject to these Terms, the Business Owner is entitled to receive a direct deposit payout through the Payment Processor for the (a) Business Owner Service Fee and (b) Gratuity, less a credit card Processing Fee, per the pricing plan that the Business owner has selected from Parcel Universe Corp.us/pricing. The credit card processing fee is calculated as a percentage of the Business Owner Service fee, Gratuity, and Goods Ordered (“Processing Fee”). For Business Owners on the Legacy Starter plan that signed up before August 1, 2020, the credit Processing Fee is five dollars ($5). For Business Legacy Pro that signed up before August 1, 2020, the Processing Fee is 3.9 percent. The Processing Fee covers our own processing fees and expenses. Parcel Universe Corp reserves the right to change, alter, add or remove fees at any time in our sole discretion, provided that we notify Business Owners and Clients of such changes in advance.
In addition to the Processing Fee and Platform Fee, Parcel Universe Corp is entitled to receive the costs of goods purchased, provided that if a Client does not make sufficient payment for Business Owner Services, the Business Owner agrees to pay Parcel Universe Corp all amounts necessary to cover the charges, and Parcel Universe Corp reserves the right to withhold all or a portion of the charges owed to Business Owners to accomplish the foregoing.
Business Setup Fee. Business owners pay a setup fee to activate their account. Please see Parcel Universe Corp website for the current pricing and description. The business setup fee is not refundable.
Payment Processing. We use Stripe, Inc., a third-party payment processor (the “Payment Processor”) to charge clients and to deposits amounts owed to Business Owners (your “Billing Account”). By signing up for an account and using the Services, you agree to the Stripe Connected Account Agreement and the Stripe Privacy Policy. Parcel Universe Corp will process all payments due to Business Owners through the Payment Processor, which can take up to five (5) business days to appear in a Business Owner’s Billing Account after Business Owner successfully charges a Client. Business Owners acknowledge and agree that such amounts shall not include any interest and will be net of any amounts that we are required to withhold by law. If a Client for whom a Business Owner performs Business Owner Services does not make sufficient payment, the Business Owner agrees to pay all amounts necessary to cover the charges, and Parcel Universe Corp reserves the right to withhold all or a portion of the charges owed to Business Owners to accomplish the foregoing. We may replace our third-party payment processing services without notice to you. We are not responsible for error by the Payment Processor. By choosing to use Paid Services, you agree to pay us, through the Payment Processor, all charges at the prices then in effect for any use of such Paid Services in accordance with the applicable payment terms and you authorize us, through the Payment Processor, to charge your chosen payment provider (your “Payment Method”). You agree to make payment using that selected Payment Method. We reserve the right to correct any errors or mistakes that it makes even if it has already requested or received payment.
Recurring Billing. Some of the Paid Services may consist of an initial period, for which there is a one-time charge, followed by recurring period charges as agreed to by you. By choosing a recurring payment plan, you acknowledge that such Services have an initial and recurring payment feature and you accept responsibility for all recurring charges prior to cancellation.
WE MAY SUBMIT PERIODIC CHARGES (E.G., MONTHLY) WITHOUT FURTHER AUTHORIZATION FROM YOU UNTIL YOU PROVIDE PRIOR NOTICE (RECEIPT OF WHICH IS CONFIRMED BY US) THAT YOU HAVE TERMINATED THIS AUTHORIZATION OR WISH TO CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD. SUCH NOTICE WILL NOT AFFECT CHARGES SUBMITTED BEFORE WE REASONABLY COULD ACT. TO TERMINATE YOUR AUTHORIZATION OR CHANGE YOUR PAYMENT METHOD, GO TO ACCOUNT SETTINGS.
Auto-Renewal for Paid Services. Unless you opt-out of auto-renewal, which can be done through your account settings, any Paid Services you have signed up for will be automatically extended for successive renewal periods of the same duration as the subscription term originally selected, at the then-current non-promotional rate. To change or resign your Paid Services at any time, go to account settings or, for mobile applications, cancel your subscription in the plan management section of the applicable App Store. If you terminate a Paid Service, you may use your subscription until the end of your then-current term, and your subscription will not be renewed after your then-current term expires. However, you will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period. IF YOU DO NOT WANT TO CONTINUE TO BE CHARGED ON A RECURRING MONTHLY BASIS, YOU MUST CANCEL THE APPLICABLE PAID SERVICE THROUGH YOUR ACCOUNT SETTINGS OR TERMINATE YOUR PARCEL UNIVERSE CORP ACCOUNT BEFORE THE END OF THE RECURRING TERM. PAID SERVICES CANNOT BE TERMINATED BEFORE THE END OF THE PERIOD FOR WHICH YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID, AND EXCEPT AS EXPRESSLY PROVIDED IN THESE TERMS, PARCEL UNIVERSE CORP WILL NOT REFUND ANY FEES THAT YOU HAVE ALREADY PAID.
Reaffirmation of Authorization. Your non-termination or continued use of a Paid Service reaffirms that we are authorized to charge your Payment Method for that Paid Service. We may submit those charges for payment and you will be responsible for such charges. This does not waive our right to seek payment directly from you. Your charges may be payable in advance, in arrears, per usage, or as otherwise described when you initially selected to use the Paid Service.
What payment did terms apply to both Clients and Business owner?
Payment Method. The terms of your payment will be based on your Payment Method and may be determined by agreements between you and the financial institution, credit card issuer or other provider of your chosen Payment Method. If we, through the Payment Processor, do not receive payment from you, you agree to pay all amounts due on your Billing Account upon demand.
Current Information Required. YOU MUST PROVIDE CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE INFORMATION FOR YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT. YOU MUST PROMPTLY UPDATE ALL INFORMATION TO KEEP YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT CURRENT, COMPLETE AND ACCURATE (SUCH AS A CHANGE IN BILLING ADDRESS, CREDIT CARD NUMBER, OR CREDIT CARD EXPIRATION DATE), AND YOU MUST PROMPTLY NOTIFY US OR OUR PAYMENT PROCESSOR IF YOUR PAYMENT METHOD IS CANCELED (E.G., FOR LOSS OR THEFT) OR IF YOU BECOME AWARE OF A POTENTIAL BREACH OF SECURITY, SUCH AS THE UNAUTHORIZED DISCLOSURE OR USE OF YOUR USER NAME OR PASSWORD. CHANGES TO SUCH INFORMATION CAN BE MADE IN YOUR ACCOUNT SETTINGS. IF YOU FAIL TO PROVIDE ANY OF THE FOREGOING INFORMATION, YOU AGREE THAT WE MAY CONTINUE CHARGING YOU FOR ANY USE OF PAID SERVICES UNDER YOUR BILLING ACCOUNT UNLESS YOU HAVE TERMINATED YOUR PAID SERVICES AS SET FORTH ABOVE.
Coupons and Promotions. Parcel Universe Corp may, in its sole discretion, offer promotional codes or coupons from time to time (“Promotions”) that may be redeemed for discounts on orders through the Services. Business Owners may also create their own promotions (“Business Owner Promotions”) using the Parcel Universe Corp Services. The following terms shall apply to Promotions and Business Owner Promotions: (i) Promotions and Business Owner Promotions must be used in a lawful manner; (ii) Promotions and Business Owner Promotions may not be duplicated, sold or transferred in any manner, or made available to the general public (whether posted to a public forum or otherwise), unless expressly permitted by Parcel Universe Corp; (iii) Promotions and Business Owner Promotions may be disabled at any time for any reason without liability to Parcel Universe Corp; (iv) Promotions and Business Owner Promotions may only be used pursuant to the specific terms that Parcel Universe Corp establishes for such Promotions and Business Owner Promotions; (v) Promotions and Business Owner Promotions are not redeemable for, and cannot be combined with, cash; (vi) Parcel Universe Corp is not responsible for any lost or stolen Promotions or Business Owner Promotions or use without your permission; and (vii) there are no implied warranties for Promotions or Business Owner Promotions. You agree that we may deactivate, cancel or suspend any Promotions or Business Owner Promotions if we suspect fraud, unlawful activity or improper Promotion or Business Owner Promotion use. Promotions and Business Owner Promotions are calculating using the entire Order amount unless stated otherwise by Parcel Universe Corp. Business Owner Promotions are deducted from a Business Owner’s earnings unless otherwise agreed by Parcel Universe Corp and the Business Owner in writing.
Terms that Apply to Business Owners:
Business Owners represent, warrant and agree that they will use the Services and perform the Business Owner Services in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations, and without violating (or permitting others to violate) any agreement with or rights of any third party.
Licensing. Business Owners alone are responsible for identifying and obtaining any required licenses, permits, or registrations before offering or performing any Business Owner Services.
Certain types of services may be prohibited altogether, and it is the responsibility of Business Owners to avoid such prohibited services. If Business Owners have questions about how local laws apply to the Business Owner Services, they can and should seek separate legal guidance.
Because Parcel Universe Corp does not oversee the Business Owner Services, Clients must determine for themselves whether a Business Owner is qualified to perform a specific service. Clients may wish to consult their state/provincial/territorial or local requirements to determine whether certain Business Owner Services are required to be performed by a licensed professional.
IRS Requirements. Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) regulations require that we issue a 1099-K form to you and the IRS if you meet both of these requirements: (1) you had $20,000 USD in sales to Clients on the Parcel Universe Corp platform during the calendar year; and (2) you received 200 or more payments through Clients on the Parcel Universe Corp platform over that same period. Business Owners acknowledge and agree that they will provide all applicable tax ID information upon notification from Parcel Universe Corp.
Unauthorized or Illegal Use. Parcel Universe Corp may decide not to authorize or settle any transaction that you submit to us if we believe that the transaction is in violation of these Terms, or that it exposes you, Clients or other users, or Parcel Universe Corp to harm (which term includes fraud and other criminal acts). If we reasonably suspect that your Parcel Universe Corp account has been used for an unauthorized, illegal, or criminal purpose, you give us express authorization to share information about you, your Parcel Universe Corp account, and any of your transactions with law enforcement. In addition, Parcel Universe Corp reserves the right to cancel, suspend, or refund any payment transactions that have been completed through Parcel Universe Corp until suspected unauthorized or illegal use allegations have been settled. We reserve the right to debit any Business Owner’s Billing Account until the resolution of any and all suspected fraudulent transactions.
Parcel Universe Corp Card. We may issue you a Parcel Universe Corp Card credit or debit card which may be used to fulfill a Client’s order. Your use of such a card is subject at all times to Stipe and Prepaid Expense Card Solutions, Inc. (“PEX”), Terms of Use and Privacy Policy. You agree to make purchases with such card solely to fulfill a Client’s in accordance with our terms and for no other reason, and you agree to reimburse Parcel Universe Corp all amounts owed in violation of the foregoing. We reserve the right to debit the Business Owner’s Billing Account or Payment Method until the resolution of any and all suspected fraudulent transactions.
The Parcel Universe Corp Card works at designated grocery and retails stores and does not support online or store application purchases. We reserve the right to block any attempted charge with the Parcel Universe Corp Card, including those that we believe to be a violation of our Terms or suspected fraud.
Complete Client Orders. If you are a Business Owner and make any purchases to fulfill a Client’s order, then no later than twenty-four (24) hours after the applicable establishment issues you a receipt, you must upload the receipt and complete the order through the applicable Apps. You agree to attach receipts for all purchases and complete Client orders even if the goods purchased for a Client have not yet been delivered to the Client. You acknowledge and agree that you are responsible for the full cost of Goods Purchased and are not entitled to receive any payment if you fail to complete Client orders and attach the receipt in accordance with this section. Parcel Universe Corp is free to terminate (or suspend access to) your use of the Services or your account for failure to attach receipts or close orders for any purchases made on behalf of Clients. Further, you are responsible for reimbursing Parcel Universe Corp within twenty-four (24) hours for any Goods Purchased that are not uploaded to a closed order. Business Owners are responsible for all items not purchased with the Parcel Universe Corp Card and will not be reimbursed by Parcel Universe Corp.
Appointment as Limited Agent. Each Business Owner appoints Parcel Universe Corp as its agent for the limited purpose of accepting and settling payments that are actually received by Parcel Universe Corp from Clients purchasing any Business Owner Services, less any amounts owed to Parcel Universe Corp and subject to these Terms. Each Business Owner agrees that a payment received by Parcel Universe Corp, on behalf of a Client, satisfies the Client’s obligations to make payment to the Business Owner, regardless of whether Parcel Universe Corp actually settles such payment to the Business Owner. If Parcel Universe Corp does not settle any such payments as described in these Terms to a Business Owner, such Business Owner will have recourse only against Parcel Universe Corp and not the Client directly.
Recoupments. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to seek reimbursement from a Business Owner in any of the following circumstances: (a) we provide a refund to a Client; (b) we discover erroneous or duplicate purchases or transactions related to a Business Owner; (c) disputed credit card transactions made by Client; (d) a Business Owner does not upload the receipt for a purchase; (e) a Business Owner does not successfully complete the order using the applicable Business Owner app, or (f) a Business Owner does not act in accordance with these Terms. We may obtain reimbursement of any amounts owed by a Business Owner to Parcel Universe Corp by deducting from future payments owed to the Business Owner, charging the Business Owner’s Billing Account, or seeking reimbursement from the Business Owner by any other lawful means, including by using third-party collections services. You authorize us to use any or all of the foregoing methods to seek reimbursement.
Client’s Failure to Pay. Each Business Owner agrees to make reasonable efforts to collect payment due from Clients for whom the Business Owner offers or provides Business Owner Services or any other services, including due to disputed credit card transactions. If a Client does not make sufficient payment, the Business Owner agrees to pay Parcel Universe Corp all amounts necessary to cover the Goods Purchased. Business Owners acknowledge and agree that Parcel Universe Corp reserves the right to withhold all or a portion of the charges owed to Business Owners to accomplish the foregoing.
Account Inactivity. We reserve the right, in our sole discretion, to terminate (or suspend access to) your account at any time, including if your account does not complete any Client orders for more than 30 consecutive days.
Your Liability for Chargebacks. The amount of a transaction may be reversed or charged back to your Parcel Universe Corp account (a “Chargeback”) if the transaction is or was (a) disputed; (b) reversed for any reason, including by our Payment Processor, a Client or our financial institution; (c) not authorized or we have any reason to believe that the transaction was not authorized; or (d) allegedly unlawful, suspicious, or in violation of these Terms. Parcel Universe Corp reserves the right to hold any pending payout(s) of a Business Owner depending on the Chargeback rate of such Business Owner in order to manage risk across our platform.
Our Collection Right for Chargebacks. For any transaction that results in a Chargeback, we may debit the amount of any Chargeback and any associated fees, fines, or penalties by our Payment Processor from your Parcel Universe Corp account (including a fifteen dollar ($15) Chargeback fee), any proceeds due to you, your bank account, or other payment instrument registered with us. If you have pending Chargebacks, we may delay payouts from your Parcel Universe Corp account. Further, if we reasonably believe that a Chargeback is likely with respect to any transaction, we may withhold the amount of the potential Chargeback from payments otherwise due to you under these Terms until such time that:
(a) a Chargeback is assessed due to a Client’s complaint, in which case we will retain the funds; (b) the period of time under applicable law or regulation by which the Client may dispute that the transaction has expired; or (c) we determine that a Chargeback on the transaction will not occur. If we are unable to recover funds related to a Chargeback for which you are liable, you will pay us the full amount of the Chargeback immediately upon demand. You agree to pay all costs and expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ fees and other legal expenses, incurred by or on behalf of us in connection with the collection of all Parcel Universe Corp account deficit balances unpaid by you.
Refunds. By accepting payment through Parcel Universe Corp, you agree to provide refunds and adjustments to Clients in accordance with these Terms for your Business Owner Services. The amount of the refund cannot exceed the amount of the Business Owner Service fee, Gratuity, less Processing fees. Please be aware if your refund policy prohibits returns or is unsatisfactory to the Client, you may still receive a Chargeback relating to such sales. You can process a refund by contacting Parcel Universe Corp at contact@parceluniverse.com. Parcel Universe Corp has no obligation to accept any returns of any of your goods or services on your behalf. For any returns on goods or services sold, the Business Owner must resolve such returns directly with Clients and Parcel Universe Corp will not be required to be involved in the refund process. Similar Chargeback and fee policies apply for any refunds granted to Clients, in addition to sales taxes and postage fees.
Driving-Related Services. If you provide any driving-related services as part of the Business Owner Services, you represent, warrant, and agree that: (a) you possess a valid driver’s license and are authorized and medically fit to operate a motor vehicle; (b) you have all appropriate licenses, approvals and authority to provide transportation to Clients in all jurisdictions in which you provide driving-related services; (c) you own, or have the legal right to operate, the vehicle you use when providing driving related services; such vehicle is in good operating condition and meets industry safety standards and all applicable statutory and state department of motor vehicle requirements; (d) you will not engage in reckless behavior while driving, drive unsafely, operate a vehicle that is unsafe to drive, be involved in a motor vehicle accident or collision of any kind, permit an unauthorized third party to accompany you in the vehicle while providing driving-related services, provide driving-related services while under the influence of alcohol or drugs, or take any action that harms or threatens to harm the safety of Clients or third parties; and (e) you have a valid policy of liability insurance (in coverage amounts consistent with all applicable legal requirements) that covers your operation of the vehicle you use to provide driving related services.

Privacy and Protecting Personal Information
Business Owners are responsible for protecting Clients’ personal information you receive or process, and you must comply with all relevant legal requirements. This includes applicable data protection and privacy laws that govern the ways in which you can use Client information. These laws may require that you post and comply with your own privacy policy, which must be accessible to Clients with whom you interact. Your privacy policy must be compatible with this policy and Parcel Universe Corp’s Terms. In particular, you may receive and determine what to do with certain personal information, such as when communicating with users and entering into transactions with Clients. This means you process personal information (for example, Client name, phone number, email address, delivery address, or shopping list) and, to the extent you do so, you are an independent controller of data relating to other users that you may have obtained through the Services. You are responsible for protecting user personal information you receive or process and complying with all relevant legal requirements when you use the Services. This includes applicable data protection and privacy laws that govern the ways in which you can use a user’s information. Such laws may require that you post, and comply with, your own privacy policy, which must be accessible to Clients you interact with and compatible with this policy and Parcel Universe Corp’s Terms.
As a data controller (that is someone who decides what personal data is collected and the purpose you’ll use the data for) to the extent that you process user personal information outside of the Services, you may be required under applicable data protection and privacy laws to honor requests received from such users for data access, portability, correction, deletion, and objections to processing. Also, if you disclose personal information without the Client’s proper consent, you are responsible for that unauthorized disclosure. This includes, for example, disclosures you make or unintentional data breaches. For example, you may receive a Client’s email address or other information as a result of entering into a transaction with that Client. This information may only be used for Parcel Universe Corp-related communications or for Parcel Universe Corpfacilitated transactions. You may not use this information for unsolicited commercial messages or unauthorized transactions. Without the Client’s consent, and subject to other applicable Parcel Universe Corp policies and laws, you may not add any Clients to your email or physical mailing list, use that client’s identity for marketing, or obtain or retain any payment information. Please bear in mind that you’re responsible for knowing the standard of consent required in any given instance. If dumping and you are found to be joint data controllers of personal information, and if Parcel Universe Corp is sued, fined, or otherwise incurs expenses because of something that you did in your capacity as a joint data controller of Client personal information, you agree to indemnify Parcel Universe Corp for the expenses it occurs in connection with your processing of Client personal information.
