Agreement to Terms
Welcome to Time for Smoothie! By using our website at https://timeforsmoothie.com, you’re agreeing to these Terms & Conditions. If you don’t agree, please don’t use our site. We’re not trying to be difficult – we just need to protect ourselves legally while providing you with great recipes.
Use of Our Content
What You Can Do
Personal Use: Use our recipes to feed yourself, your family, your friends, that coworker you secretly have a crush on – go wild. Cook them, adapt them to your tastes, share the finished dishes on social media. That’s literally why we created them.
Share Links: Share links to our recipes on social media, in emails, in group chats – anywhere you want. We love when people share our content. Just link to the actual recipe page rather than copying the whole thing.
Print for Home Use: Print recipes for your personal use. Keep them in a binder, tape them to your fridge, whatever works for you.
Small Modifications: Adapt recipes for your dietary needs or preferences. Add more garlic (Sarah approves), swap ingredients, make it your own.
What You Can’t Do
Copy Our Content: Don’t copy our recipes, photos, or blog posts and publish them elsewhere as your own. That includes other websites, cookbooks, apps, or printed materials.
Commercial Use: Don’t use our recipes in your restaurant, catering business, or food product without permission. Want to use our recipes commercially? Email hello@timeforsmoothie.com and let’s talk.
Republish Photos: Our recipe photos are copyrighted. Don’t republish them without permission. If you want to share a recipe, link to our page or take your own photo of your version.
Scraping: Don’t use bots or automated tools to scrape our content. It slows down our site for real humans and violates our terms.
Remove Attribution: If you have permission to use our content, keep the attribution. Don’t remove our name, logo, or links back to our site.
User Contributions
Comments and Feedback
When you comment on our recipes or submit feedback, you’re giving us permission to display that content publicly on our site. We might also use your feedback (with your permission) in marketing materials or testimonials.
You’re responsible for your comments. Don’t post anything illegal, abusive, threatening, defamatory, obscene, or otherwise objectionable. We reserve the right to remove comments that violate these standards.
Recipe Variations and Tips
When you share your modifications or tips in comments, you’re helping the community. We love that! You retain ownership of your tips, but by posting them, you give us permission to display them and other users permission to try them.
Intellectual Property
Our Trademarks
“Time for Smoothie,” our logo, and related marks are trademarks of LLC Time for Smoothie. Don’t use them without permission.
Our Copyrights
All content on this site – recipes, photos, blog posts, graphics, videos – is protected by copyright and owned by LLC Time for Smoothie or our licensors. The recipes themselves (ingredient lists and basic procedures) might not be copyrightable under some laws, but our specific expression of those recipes, our photos, and our instructional text are protected.
Your Rights
Nothing in these terms transfers ownership of our intellectual property to you. You’re essentially getting a license to use our content for personal, non-commercial purposes under the conditions outlined above.
Disclaimer of Warranties
Here’s where we protect ourselves legally. Our site and content are provided “as is” without any warranties, express or implied. We make no guarantees about:
Accuracy: We test our recipes carefully, but we can’t guarantee they’ll work perfectly in your kitchen every single time. Variables like altitude, ingredient brands, equipment differences, and individual skill levels affect results.
Completeness: We try to include all necessary information, but we might occasionally miss something. If you’re confused, ask us!
Reliability: We try to keep the site running 24/7, but technical issues happen. We don’t guarantee uninterrupted access.
Fitness for Purpose: We believe our recipes are great for quick, healthy meals, but we can’t guarantee they’ll meet your specific needs or expectations.
Food-Specific Disclaimers
Nutritional Information
We provide nutritional information calculated from USDA databases and European food standards. However, these are estimates. Actual nutritional content varies based on specific brands, preparation methods, and portion sizes. If you have strict dietary requirements, please verify independently.
Allergen Information
We try to identify common allergens in recipes, but we can’t guarantee our kitchens or recipes are allergen-free. If you have food allergies, carefully check ingredient lists and make your own safety determinations.
Food Safety
Follow standard food safety practices. We provide cooking times and temperatures we believe are safe, but food safety is ultimately your responsibility. Store, prepare, and cook food safely. When in doubt, throw it out.
Dietary Restrictions
Our recipes include various dietary labels (gluten-free, dairy-free, vegan, etc.), but always verify ingredients meet your specific dietary needs. Manufacturers change formulations, and what’s gluten-free in one country might not be certified gluten-free in another.
Medical Conditions
Our recipes are not medical advice. If you have diabetes, celiac disease, kidney disease, or other medical conditions requiring dietary restrictions, consult your healthcare provider about appropriate food choices.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, LLC Time for Smoothie and its team members are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of our site or recipes.
This includes (but isn’t limited to):
- Food allergies or adverse reactions
- Foodborne illness
- Kitchen accidents or injuries
- Damaged equipment
- Unsatisfactory recipe results
- Lost profits or business opportunities
- Data loss or technical problems
Our maximum liability for any claim will not exceed €100 or the amount you paid us in the past 12 months (which is probably €0 since our site is free).
Some jurisdictions don’t allow limitation of liability for personal injury or certain damages, so these limitations might not apply to you.
External Links
Our site includes links to other websites (ingredient suppliers, kitchen equipment, related content). We don’t control these sites and aren’t responsible for their content, privacy practices, or business practices. When you click external links, you’re leaving our site and subject to their terms and policies.
User Conduct
Don’t use our site to:
- Violate any laws or regulations
- Infringe intellectual property rights
- Transmit malware, viruses, or harmful code
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access
- Harass, abuse, or harm others
- Collect user information without permission
- Impersonate someone else
- Spam our comment sections or forms
We reserve the right to terminate access for users who violate these terms.
Modifications to Terms
We might update these terms occasionally to reflect legal requirements, site changes, or business practices. We’ll post the updated version with a new “Last Updated” date. Significant changes will be announced via email or a prominent site notice.
Your continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated terms. If you don’t agree with changes, stop using our site.
Modifications to Service
We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of our site at any time. We’re not building the next Facebook – we’re just sharing recipes – but we want flexibility to improve things or, worst case, shut down if needed.
Governing Law and Disputes
These terms are governed by French law, regardless of your location. Any disputes will be resolved in the courts of Paris, France.
Before taking legal action, please contact us at legal@timeforsmoothie.com to try resolving the issue informally. We’re reasonable humans who prefer solving problems over lawsuits.
Severability
If any provision of these terms is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in full effect. Think of it like removing one ingredient from a recipe – the rest still works.
Entire Agreement
These terms, along with our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and LLC Time for Smoothie regarding use of our site.
