Estonia Terms of Service

Last modified on January 4, 2023

1. GENERAL TERMS

1.1 Starship Technologies OÜ (“Starship”) is the operator of the Starship mobile application (“App”).

1.2 These terms of service (hereinafter “Terms”) apply exclusively to all legal relationships which arise between a user of the App (“User”) and Starship (together “Parties”), including to the provision of the service by Starship to the User via the App (“Service”). These Terms also apply to the Sales Agreements entered into between the User and the Partner (as explained below in clause 2.2).

1.3 The User is obliged to read the Terms. If the User does not accept the Terms, then the User is not allowed to use the App, the Service and any other services which may be made available via the App. By accepting the Terms, the User represents and warrants that the User has read and accepts the Terms and that the User has a legal capacity to enter into a contract.

 

2. DESCRIPTION OF THE SERVICE AND THE APP

2.1 Starship provides a platform (being the App) whereby the User can purchase food and other goods (“Goods”) from Starship’s partners (“Partner”) by placing an order (“Order”) via the App. The Partners are displayed in the App to the User based on the following parameters: proximity of the Partner to the User / User’s delivery address (closer ones are displayed first); whether the Partner is offering delivery or pickup (delivery providers are displayed first); and whether the Partner is opened or closed (open Partners are displayed first).

2.2 The sales agreement for the purchase of the Goods (“Sales Agreement”) is entered into between the User and the applicable Partner from where the User purchases the Goods. Additional terms may apply to the Sales Agreement (in addition to the Terms provided in this document), in which case such terms are made available to the User via the App or otherwise.

2.3 Starship is not a party to the Sales Agreement and is not liable for the Goods. Starship is only a provider of information society services – making it easier for the Users to purchase Goods from the Partners by providing the App as a service. In addition to that, Starship provides an on-demand delivery service to the User for the delivery of the purchased Goods. The delivery service is provided via Starship’s automated delivery vehicles (“Delivery Robots”).

 

3. GOODS AND PRICES

3.1 The Partners provide information about the Goods to the Users via the App, including but not limited to the information of the Goods’ characteristics and  instructions of use. The photos of the Goods displayed in the App are for illustration purposes.

3.2 The prices of the Goods in the App and any applicable fees (e.g. delivery fee) are shown in Euros and include a value added tax. The delivery fee (or any other applicable fee) shall be displayed separately from the price of the Goods.

3.3 Starship, on behalf of the applicable Partner, may change prices of the Goods going forward any time as deemed necessary. Starship may also change the delivery fee and charge any additional fees shown in the App.

3.4 The User will be charged the prices of the Goods which are displayed in the App at the moment when the User places the Order.

3.5 If the Goods are sold by weight (e.g. fruit), their final price may change as the Order is fulfilled. If the User is delivered Goods the weight of which is lower than ordered, Starship will return the price difference to the User within 14 days as of the delivery. If the User is delivered such Goods which weight is higher than ordered, the User is not obliged to make any additional payment.

3.6 If the User has allergies or other dietary restrictions or wishes to receive more information about the Goods, including allergen information, the User should check the Partner’s website or otherwise contact the relevant Partner. It is also possible to contact Starship’s customer support who can contact the Partner and forward the information to the User. In any case, the Partner is responsible for providing accurate, up-to-date and legally required information about the Goods.

3.7 Starship and/or the Partner may, at its sole discretion, make promotional offers with different mechanisms and different prices to the Users. Unless made specifically to a specific User, such offers shall have no bearing whatsoever on the use of the App and/or the Service or the fees charged. Starship and/or the respective Partner reserve a right to expire or modify any promotion at any time.

 

4. PLACING THE ORDER

4.1 To purchase Goods from the Partner, the User must place an Order by using the App. To place an Order the User must:

a) choose the respective Partner from the App;

b) add the Goods displayed in the App to the shopping cart;

c) enter the location where the Order shall be delivered within the delivery area (delivery areas are limited, as displayed in the App) – after that, the User is shown the estimated time of delivery;

d) verify his/her phone number, enter the payment details which shall be used for making the purchase (means of payment are displayed in the App) and other required information;

e) confirm that the Goods (and their quantities and prices) which were added to the shopping cart are correct and correspond to the User’s intent. Neither Starship nor the Partner are liable for damage or other harm which may derive from any incorrect information submitted by the User; and

f) finally, for placing the Order, the User has to press the icon “Pay”.

4.2 Once the Order has been received and the User has successfully authorised the payment for the Order to Starship, Starship shall transmit the details of the Order to the Partner. When the Order is accepted by the Partner and Starship has provided the User with the Order confirmation on behalf of the Partner, then:

a) the User and the Partner shall be considered to have concluded a Sales Agreement for the purchase of the Goods; and

b) the User and Starship shall be considered to have concluded a delivery agreement pursuant to which Starship undertakes to deliver the purchased Goods to the User.

4.3 After that, the respective Partner shall start preparing the Order. 

4.4 The Partner may impose certain restrictions on the Order, such as quantity and size limitations. Also, there may be a minimum value of the purchase required, in which case the User will be notified thereof before the Order has been placed by the User. If the Order fails to meet the minimum required value, the User can either pay the difference to meet the minimum value or to add more Goods to the Order from the same Partner.

4.5 In case the Partner does not have the Goods ordered by the User, the Partner shall substitute such Goods with similar Goods at the Partner’s discretion or to the extent preapproved by the User within the App. As a default, the User consents to making substitutions when purchasing the retail Goods (the User can opt-out of a substitution in the App). If the User does not accept the substituted Goods or if it is not possible to substitute the Goods, Starship will return the price paid for the missing Goods to the User within 14 days as of the delivery. The User does not have the right to reject the substituted Goods if the User has preapproved a substitution of specific Goods in the App. If the User accepts the substituted Goods and the price of such Goods is lower compared to the Goods originally ordered, Starship will return the price difference within 14 days as of the delivery. If the price of the substituted Goods is higher compared to the missing Goods, the User is not obliged to make any additional payment.

4.6 Starship has the right to cancel any Order by notifying the User via text message, phone call or push notification. In this case Starship shall return the User the price of the Order (i.e. price of the Goods and any applied fees) as well as pay any applicable and possible compensation assessed on a case-by-case basis taking into consideration the situation in question within 7 days after the Order was placed.

 

5. DELIVERY OF THE ORDER

5.1 Once the Order has been prepared by the Partner and is ready for a pick-up, Starship shall deliver the Goods to the User.

5.2 The ordered Goods shall be delivered by a Delivery Robot to the location specified by the User in the Order. The App will display the estimated time for when the Order shall arrive to the delivery location. The User acknowledges that the delivery time shown in the App is only an estimate and can change – including for reasons not dependent on Starship (e.g. bad weather conditions). As such, there is no guarantee that the Order will be delivered at the estimated time. In no event shall Starship or the Partner be liable to the User for any delays caused by force majeure.

5.3 Starship shall send the User operational text messages (SMS) and/or push notifications about the User’s use of the App including status of delivery or Delivery Robot interaction information.

5.4 The User must ensure that he/she is personally at the delivery location to accept the Order at the time when the Delivery Robot arrives. The User can obtain the Goods from the Delivery Robot by using the App. The User understands that due to technical reasons, the Delivery Robot is unable to enter buildings and climb stairs. Therefore, the User is obliged to accept the Order outside the building at the delivery address. 

5.5 When accepting the Order, the User shall immediately examine and verify whether the Goods, their quantity and quality correspond to the Order. The Order shall be deemed completed once the User removes the Goods from the Delivery Robot. When the User has received the Goods, i.e. removed the Goods from the Delivery Robot, the User must keep them substantially unchanged until the User has decided to keep the Goods. 

5.6 If the User is not at the delivery location for receiving the Goods within 15 minutes after the arrival of the Delivery Robot, Starship has the right to instruct the Delivery Robot to leave the delivery location and utilize the Goods. The User accepts and acknowledges that due to the technical solutions included in the Delivery Robot, it does not have a special cooling device but a cool bag, and thus it is not possible to deliver the Goods to the User after the Robot has left the delivery location. For the avoidance of doubt, the User accepts and acknowledges that Starship is not obligated to deliver the Goods later, nor offer a refund in the aforementioned situation. 

5.7 If the delivered Goods do not correspond to the Order (e.g. the Goods are incorrect or defective) or in cases where the Goods have been substituted and the User does not accept the substituted Goods, the User shall place such Goods back to the Delivery Robot. If the Goods were substituted, there will be a corresponding notice letter on top of the Goods inside the Delivery Robot.

5.8 Once the Goods have been delivered, Starship shall send the User a receipt for the purchase of the Goods on behalf of the respective Partner and a receipt by Starship for the delivery (which is a document certifying the sale of the Goods and provision of the Service). The User agrees that this document is given to him or her in a format reproducible in writing (via e-mail).

 

6. AGE-RESTRICTED GOODS

6.1 As required by law, alcohol is not sold or delivered to anyone who is, or appears to be, under the age of 18. By placing an Order for any age restricted Goods, the User represents and warrants that he/she is:

a) at the required legal age to purchase such Goods (which for alcohol is 18); and

b) the owner and primary user of the device used to authenticate the User’s identity. 

6.2 When purchasing alcohol for the first time, the User is asked to verify his/her age and to confirm that that he/she is the owner and primary user of the device used for authenticating the Users identity. If the User is not able or not willing to comply with the required processes, then the User is not allowed to purchase alcohol.

6.3 At the point of delivery, the User is required to verify his/her age. If the User is not able or not willing to comply with the required processes, then the Delivery Robot will be unable to complete the Order, the Order (as a whole) will be cancelled and Starship shall charge the User a full price for the Order.

6.4 The User agrees not to purchase alcohol while being intoxicated and not to purchase alcohol for the purpose of offering or handing the alcohol over to persons exhibiting signs of intoxication. The User also agrees not to place an Order for age restricted Goods on behalf of persons who are under the minimum legal age to buy such Goods and the User agrees to protect his/her account and device from unauthorized access by such persons so that they are not able to use the App under any circumstances whatsoever.

6.5 Similar age verification and device authentication processes may be necessary for the purchase of other age restricted Goods. Under no circumstances shall Starship be in breach of these Terms where it cancels (or is otherwise unable to complete) an Order as a result of Starship being unable to verify that the person ordering age restricted Goods (including alcohol) is of the required legal age or if selling or handing over any age restricted Goods would infringe the applicable law.

 

7. PAYMENTS

7.1 The User pays the purchase price of the Order (price of the Goods and any applicable fee, e.g. delivery fee) to Starship by using the payment functionalities made available in the App. The User authorises Starship to charge all sums for Orders made by the User. 

7.2 The Partners have authorized Starship as a commercial agent to collect all payments from the Users for the purchased Goods on behalf of the Partners as well as issue receipts for the purchased Goods to the Users on behalf of the Partners. The User’s obligation to pay for the Goods to the respective Partner from the Sales Agreement is considered as fulfilled at the moment the respective payment has been made by the User to Starship.

7.3 The User accepts that a temporary pre-authorization hold may be placed on the User’s designated payment method to verify that the User’s payment card is valid and has funds available for the intended purchase. The amount of this pre-authorization hold may be greater or less than the total quoted at checkout. However, the User will only be charged the final fee total once the Order is registered as complete within the Starship system, which generally occurs between 24-48 business hours after the User receives the delivery. In the event that the pre-authorization is greater than the final amount, the difference will be returned to the User after the delivery is completed or cancelled, which may take up to 5 business days depending on the User’s bank.

7.4 Service fees may be added to the cost of the Order pursuant to the contract concluded between the User and the User’s bank.

7.5 All returns which Starship makes to the User will be transferred to the same payment account which the User used to pay for the relevant Order, if not agreed upon otherwise.

7.6 Starship reserves the right to request additional information from the User if Starship has a reason to believe, in Starship’s sole discretion, that a payment method may be fraudulent.

 

8. CANCELLATION OF THE ORDER

8.1 If the User cancels the Order, the User may be charged depending on what stage the fulfilment of the Order was in at the time of cancellation and the nature of the Goods (e.g., whether they are perishable/prepared food). If the User cancels the Order after it has been accepted but is not yet being prepared, Starship will remove the hold placed on the User’s account corresponding to the price of the ordered Goods as well as the delivery fee within 14 days after the Order was placed. If the User cancels the Order after the preparation has been started, or after the Order is out for delivery, the User is not returned any money where the Goods are perishable/prepared food.

 

9. WITHDRAWAL FROM THE ORDER (APPLICABLE ONLY TO CONSUMERS)

9.1 If the User is a consumer within the meaning of law, the User may withdraw from the contract (i.e. Order) without giving any reason within 14 days after receiving the delivery by submitting an unequivocal application of withdrawal to e-mail address help@starship.co. This application must contain the User’s Order number, names of the Goods the User wishes to withdraw from, bank account details for the re-imbursement and the User’s contact details (e-mail address, phone number and name). Alternatively, the User can fill out the standard form for withdrawal which can be found here:https://www.riigiteataja.ee/aktilisa/1111/2202/1013/JM_m41_lisa1.pdf#.  and send it to e-mail address help@starship.co. The Partners have authorised Starship to accept the withdrawal applications on behalf of the Partners. Once Starship receives the withdrawal application, Starship will forward it to the respective Partner.

9.2 The User only has the right to withdraw from the Order if the Goods are unused, unimpaired and still in their original packaging. 

9.3 The Goods returned must be handed over to the respective Partner to the same location from where the Goods were ordered from within 14 days from submitting the notification of withdrawal to Starship. The contact details of the Partner’s location are made available in the App. Any direct costs which the User may incur related to returning shall be borne by the User and will not be refunded. 

9.4 The User may not withdraw from the Order in the following cases: (a) the Goods delivered deteriorate or expire rapidly; (b) the Goods delivered are in sealed packaging which are not suitable for return due to health protection or hygiene reasons and were unsealed after delivery; (c) the Goods delivered are after delivery according to their nature inseparably mixed with other items; (d) the Goods delivered are sealed audio or video recordings or computer software and the User has opened the package; (e) the Goods delivered are newspapers, magazines or periodicals; (f) the Goods delivered are any other Goods listed in the the Estonian Law of Obligations § 53 section 4.

9.5 If the User has withdrawn from the Order and the Goods returned are in proper condition, Starship will, on behalf of the respective Partner, return the User the price of the Goods as well as the delivery fee paid to Starship within 14 days after Starship has received the notification of withdrawal. If the User withdraws from the Order partially, then the delivery fee paid to Starship shall be returned proportionally. Regardless of the preceding, Starship has the right not to return the cost of the returned Goods and cost of delivery until the respective Partner has received the Goods or proof that the Goods are in transit back to the respective Partner.

9.6 If the condition of the returned Goods has deteriorated, the User shall be liable for the decrease in the value of the Goods resulting from the User’s use if he/she has used the Goods in any other way other than what is necessary to apprehend the essence of the Goods, their features and their proper functioning. To do so, the User shall only handle and use the Goods in a way the User would be normally allowed to handle and use the Goods in a retail store before purchasing.

 

10. USER’S LEGAL RIGHTS

10.1 If the Goods are not compliant with the terms of the Sales Agreement and/or the Service is not compliant with the Terms, the User has the right to use legal remedies provided by the law in correspondence with these Terms.

10.2 The respective Partner is liable for lack of conformity of the Goods which becomes apparent within two years as of the date of delivery (naturally – if the shelf-life of a certain Good is less than that then the time for submitting complaint is respectively shorter). However, this may be subject to the terms of the respective Partner from where the Goods were purchased from. The Partner is not liable for any lack of conformity of the Goods which resulted from the User’s actions and/or omission, including the case of unpurposeful use of the Goods or unproper preservation of the Goods. 

10.3 In the event of a consumer sale, it is presumed that any lack of conformity which becomes apparent within one year as of the date of delivery of the Goods, already existed before the delivery of the Goods, unless such presumption is contrary to the nature of the Goods or the deficiency.

10.4 The User is obliged to notify Starship immediately of if the Service is incompliant with the Terms. The User shall provide reasonable and required co-operation with Starship in order to determine whether the non-compliance of the App with the Terms during the provision of the Service is due to the User’s digital environment.

10.5 The User shall notify Starship in the case of a lack of conformity of the Goods immediately (but in any case, latest within two months after becoming aware of it). The Partners have authorised Starship to accept such notifications on behalf of the Partners and once Starship receives the notification of lack of conformity, Starship forwards this to the respective Partner. This notification should be submitted by the User by e-mail to help@starship.co or by post to Harju maakond, Tallinn, Mustamäe linnaosa, Teaduspargi tn 8, 12618. Such notification must include the User’s name, contact information, date of submitting the notification, description of lack of conformity of the Goods, photo(s) of the faulty Goods, the content of the claim and a document proving the purchase of Goods.

10.6 If the Goods have defects for which the Partner is liable for, then the Partner shall replace the defective Goods. If the Goods cannot be replaced, the User is returned all the payments involved with the sale of such Goods. 

10.7 If the User is instructed by Starship (on behalf of the Partner), the User shall return the Goods for investigation. If the notification of non-conformity was done by the User within 6 months of receiving the respective Goods, the shipping cost for return is paid by Starship. If the notification is done after that, the shipping cost for return is born by the User but shall be compensated by Starship if the Goods were defaulted.

 

11. COMMUNICATIONS

11.1 Starship offers the User the opportunity to contact Starship customer support via the chat function of the App. After the end of the conversation, the history of the conversation will be deleted, and the User will not be able to review it.

11.2 By using the Service and the App, the User may receive text (SMS) messages at the phone number provided by the User and/or push notifications, which are messages the App sends to the User’s mobile device even when the App is not on.

The User will not be able to use the Service and the App without agreeing to receive them.
