Terms of Service

Last updated August 17, 2026

1. Agreement to these Terms

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and NoStove, Inc. (“NoStove,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), a Massachusetts corporation. They govern your use of nostove.com and its content (together, the “Site”).

By using the Site, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, our Cookie Notice, and our Disclaimer & Affiliate Disclosure, which are incorporated into these Terms by reference. If you do not agree, do not use the Site. You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority where you live) to submit content to the Site.

2. What the Site is

The Site is an independent directory of meal delivery services. We research, list, and rank third-party services so you can compare them; we do not prepare, sell, or deliver food. When you order from a service you found through the Site, your contract — including everything about pricing, delivery, quality, refunds, and allergens — is between you and that service. Some outbound links are affiliate links, as described in our Affiliate Disclosure.

3. Our content and your license to use it

Unless otherwise indicated, the Site and its content — including our database of listings, rankings, text, design, graphics, and logos (the “Content”) — are owned by or licensed to NoStove and protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. Third-party business names and logos shown on the Site belong to their respective owners; their appearance does not imply endorsement.

We grant you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to access the Site and use the Content for personal, non-commercial purposes. Except as permitted by that license, you may not copy, reproduce, republish, scrape, frame, sell, or otherwise exploit the Site or any Content without our prior written permission. If you are interested in licensed access to our data, see our Data & API page.

4. Acceptable use

When using the Site, you agree not to:

5. Reviews and other submissions

The Site lets you submit ratings, reviews, photos, business suggestions, and other content (“Submissions”). You keep ownership of your Submissions, but by submitting them you grant NoStove a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicensable license to use, host, reproduce, display, adapt, and distribute them in connection with the Site and our business, including displaying your first name and last initial alongside a review.

You represent that each Submission:

We may accept, reject, edit for formatting, or remove any Submission at our sole discretion, but we have no obligation to screen Submissions and are not responsible for them. Reviews reflect the opinions of their authors, not ours.

If you believe content on the Site infringes your copyright, email [email protected] with the material’s location, a description of the work infringed, your contact information, and a statement, under penalty of perjury, that you are authorized to act for the rights holder and believe in good faith the use is unauthorized. We will respond in accordance with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

6. Business listings

Listings are compiled from public information, from the businesses themselves, and from user feedback, and are provided for information only. If you represent a listed business, you may contact us to correct or update your listing. We decide at our sole discretion what the directory includes and how services are ranked; inclusion is not endorsement, and no one can pay for a higher organic rank.

7. Third-party websites

The Site links to third-party websites we do not control. We are not responsible for their content, policies, or practices, and a link is not an endorsement. Your dealings with any third party, including any purchase, are solely between you and them.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SITE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SITE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE, OR THAT LISTING INFORMATION — INCLUDING PRICES, MENUS, DELIVERY AREAS, AND AVAILABILITY — IS ACCURATE, COMPLETE, OR CURRENT. NOTHING ON THE SITE IS MEDICAL, NUTRITIONAL, LEGAL, OR FINANCIAL ADVICE.

9. Limitation of liability

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, NOSTOVE AND ITS OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, AND AGENTS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES — INCLUDING LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, OR PERSONAL INJURY ARISING FROM PRODUCTS OR SERVICES OBTAINED FROM THIRD PARTIES YOU FOUND THROUGH THE SITE — ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE SITE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SITE WILL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US $100).

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty disclaimers or liability limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you; in that case our liability is limited to the greatest extent permitted by law.

10. Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold NoStove harmless from any claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of your Submissions, your use of the Site, or your breach of these Terms.

11. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, without regard to its conflict-of-law principles.

12. Dispute resolution

Informal resolution first. Before filing a claim, you agree to contact us at [email protected] and give us 30 days to try to resolve the dispute informally.

Binding arbitration. Any dispute arising out of these Terms or the Site that is not resolved informally will be settled by binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules, conducted in Essex County, Massachusetts, or remotely (by document submission, phone, or video) where the rules allow. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction. YOU UNDERSTAND THAT BY AGREEING TO ARBITRATION, YOU ARE WAIVING THE RIGHT TO SUE IN COURT AND TO A JURY TRIAL.

Exceptions. Either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court, and either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in court for actual or threatened infringement or misuse of intellectual property or for claims of unauthorized use of the Site. If a dispute proceeds in court for any reason, it must be brought in the state or federal courts located in Essex County, Massachusetts, and both parties consent to their jurisdiction.

No class actions. All disputes must be brought in the parties’ individual capacity, not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, consolidated, or representative proceeding. If this waiver is found unenforceable as to a particular dispute, that dispute shall be decided by a court as described above rather than in arbitration.

13. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Site at any time, without notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or applicable law. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including Sections 3, 5, and 8 through 12 — will survive.

14. Changes to these Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. The date at the top shows when they were last updated, and material changes will be flagged on the Site. Your continued use of the Site after changes take effect means you accept the revised Terms.

15. General

These Terms, together with the policies incorporated into them, are the entire agreement between you and NoStove regarding the Site. If any provision is found unenforceable, the rest remain in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Notices to us should be sent to [email protected].
