Terms of Service

1. Understanding and accepting these terms

Welcome to the Best Before website at https://bestbeforedie.com (the “Service” or “Website”). These terms govern the relationship between you and Best Before when you use the Service. By accessing the Website and using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood and agreed to these terms.

The Service includes this Website and the information, linked pages, functions, data, text, images, photographs, graphics, music, sounds, videos, messages, labels, content, programming, software and applications provided through it or related services, including mobile applications. Customer service and local support are provided by the entities and personnel designated by Best Before for the relevant country or location.

Specific services or new functions may be subject to additional published terms or rules appropriate to their nature. Those terms and rules form part of these terms and govern your use of the relevant services.

Best Before may amend these terms at any time. Please check for changes. Continued use after a change indicates that you have read, understood and accepted the amended terms. If you disagree with these terms, or your country or region excludes all or part of them, you should stop using the Service.

2. Links to third-party websites

The Service or third parties may provide links to other websites or resources. A link does not imply an association between Best Before and the operator. Those websites are operated by their respective operators and are outside Best Before’s control and responsibility. Best Before does not guarantee the suitability, reliability, timeliness, validity, accuracy or completeness of search results or external links.

3. Registration obligations

You agree to provide accurate, current and complete personal information requested during registration, and to maintain and update it. If information is incorrect, false or incomplete, Best Before may suspend or terminate your account and refuse access to all or part of the Service.

4. Accounts, passwords and security

After registration, you are responsible for keeping your account and password confidential and secure. You agree to notify Best Before immediately of unauthorised use or other security issues, and to sign out after each session.

5. Content you provide

By uploading, posting, sending, receiving, storing or otherwise providing content through the Service, including text, images, audiovisual materials and reviews (“Content”), you represent and warrant that you hold the rights and permissions required for Best Before to use it under these terms.

You grant Best Before a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable, perpetual, sublicensable and transferable right to use, reproduce, modify, create derivative works from, translate, distribute, license, store, transmit, adapt or otherwise exploit the Content through the Service or related channels. Best Before may use the Content in correspondence, third-party websites, advertising media and other channels.

You accept full responsibility for your Content and claims or losses arising from Best Before’s use of it. You warrant that it does not infringe, misuse or violate patents, copyright, trademarks, trade secrets, personality rights, property rights, intellectual property rights, image rights, privacy rights or applicable laws and regulations.

For users of different languages, this Website provides Traditional Chinese, English and Simplified Chinese content. If language versions differ, please contact the shop for clarification. Your statutory consumer rights are unaffected.

6. Lawful use and user commitments

You agree not to use the Service for an unlawful purpose or in an unlawful manner, and to comply with applicable laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region. If you use the Service outside Hong Kong, you must also comply with applicable local laws. You agree not to infringe others’ rights or engage in unlawful conduct through the Service, including:

  • Uploading, posting, publishing or transmitting defamatory, insulting, threatening, offensive, indecent, obscene, false or otherwise unlawful material, or material contrary to public order or good morals.
  • Infringing reputation, privacy, trade secrets, trademarks, copyright, patents, intellectual property or other rights.

  • Uploading, transmitting or distributing viruses or code that interrupts, damages or limits computer hardware or software.
  • Engaging in unlawful transactions, or posting false information or material encouraging criminal conduct.
  • Sending unsolicited advertising, spam, chain messages or unlawful multi-level marketing messages.
  • Harming minors in any way.
  • Falsifying message origins or interfering with identification of transmission sources.
  • Disrupting the Service, its servers or connected networks, or failing to comply with relevant requirements, procedures, policies or rules, including deliberately circumventing Best Before’s robot exclusion headers.
  • Stalking or harassing others, or collecting or storing their personal information for those purposes.
  • Other conduct that Best Before reasonably considers inappropriate.

7. System interruptions or failures

The Service may be interrupted or fail, potentially causing inconvenience, data loss, errors, unauthorised alteration or financial loss. You should take appropriate protective measures. Subject to the statutory protections in section 14, Best Before is not liable for loss arising from use of, or inability to use, the Service, except in cases of intentional misconduct or gross negligence.

8. Information and advice

Best Before does not guarantee that information or advice obtained through the Service or linked websites, including business, investment, medical or legal information, is entirely accurate. Best Before may amend or remove information or advice. Before making plans or decisions, consult an appropriate professional about your individual circumstances.

Third-party content providers may supply news, messages, newsletters and other material for publication. Best Before identifies the provider when publishing such material. Respecting the provider’s intellectual property, Best Before does not substantively review or alter that material and does not guarantee its accuracy or authenticity. Exercise your own judgement and direct concerns about infringement or inaccuracies to the provider.

9. Advertising

Advertising content, descriptions, images, samples and sales information are supplied by the relevant advertisers or suppliers. Assess their accuracy and reliability yourself. Best Before publishes such advertising on their behalf and does not guarantee it, subject to applicable law.

10. Intellectual property

Software, programs and Website content, including product information, images, files, architecture, page arrangements, designs and member content, are protected by intellectual property rights held by Best Before or other rights holders. These include trademarks, patents, copyright, trade secrets and proprietary technology. Without permission, you must not use, modify, reproduce, broadcast, transmit, display, adapt, distribute, publish, reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble them.

Except where expressly permitted by law, obtain the relevant rights holder’s prior written permission before quoting or reproducing software, programs or content. You must respect intellectual property and are responsible for loss caused by infringement. Names and marks used by Best Before and its affiliates to promote the Service are protected, according to their registration or use, by applicable Hong Kong trademark and intellectual property laws. Do not use those marks without Best Before’s prior written permission.

11. Payment

Product prices are displayed in Hong Kong dollars (HKD). Best Before handles payment disputes, refunds and order cancellations relating to Website transactions. All Website transactions and these terms are governed by the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region, regardless of payment currency. Please also refer to the relevant product page, refund policy and shipping policy for specific payment, refund and delivery arrangements.

12. Notices

Where notice is required by law or relevant rules, Best Before may notify you, including of changes to these terms, by email, post, SMS, multimedia or text messages, Website announcements or other reasonable present or future methods. A person accessing the Service without authorisation in breach of these terms may not receive such notices. By accessing the Service with authorisation and accepting these terms, you agree that notices sent by Best Before are deemed delivered, subject to applicable law.

13. Termination

Best Before may, at its discretion, terminate or restrict an account or use of the Service and remove member content. Reasons may include prolonged inactivity, court or government orders, inability to continue the Service, substantial changes to it, unexpected technical or security problems, fraud, unlawful conduct, non-payment, or a breach of these terms or their purpose.

Best Before may also terminate or restrict all or part of the Service with or without notice, and may immediately close, delete or restrict access to your account and related data or files. Subject to the statutory protections in section 14, Best Before does not accept liability to you or third parties for such termination or restriction.

14. Governing law and jurisdiction

These terms form the entire agreement between you and Best Before regarding use of the Service and replace previous related agreements. Their interpretation and application, and disputes relating to them, are governed by the laws of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region and subject to the non-exclusive jurisdiction of its courts.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits consumer rights, guarantees, liabilities or remedies that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited under applicable Hong Kong law. Where these terms conflict with mandatory legal requirements, applicable law prevails.

15. Other matters

A failure by Best Before to exercise or enforce a right or provision is not a waiver of it.

If a competent court finds a provision invalid, the parties agree that the court should give effect to their intention as far as possible, while the remaining provisions continue in effect.

Headings are for convenience and have no separate legal or contractual effect.
