THE SERVICE IS OFFERED TO YOU SUBJECT TO YOUR ACCEPTANCE OF THESE GROVE COLLABORATIVE TERMS OF USE. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING GROVE COLLABORATIVE TERMS OF USE CAREFULLY. BY CLICKING OR TAPPING “I ACCEPT”, BY “CREATING AN ACCOUNT”, BY SELECTING “PLACE ORDER,” BY SUBMITTING A SURVEY (INCLUDING THE GROVE WELLNESS QUIZ), OR BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE IN ANY MANNER, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE GROVE COLLABORATIVE TERMS. IF YOU ARE NOT ELIGIBLE, OR AT ANY TIME, DO NOT AGREE TO THE GROVE COLLABORATIVE TERMS, YOU MAY NOT USE THE SERVICE.
Please read our privacy policy carefully for information relating to our collection, use, storage and disclosure of your information. The Grove Collaborative privacy policy is incorporated into and is subject to this Grove Collaborative Terms.
Your use of the Service is subject to any additional terms, rules, or guidelines applicable to the Service or certain features of the Service that we may post and you may accept (the “Additional Terms”). All such Additional Terms are hereby incorporated by reference into, and made a part of, the Grove Collaborative Terms. The Additional Terms include, but are not limited to
PLEASE BE AWARE THAT THESE GROVE COLLABORATIVE TERMS CONTAIN PROVISIONS GOVERNING HOW CLAIMS THAT YOU AND WE HAVE AGAINST EACH OTHER ARE RESOLVED. SPECIFICALLY, (1) YOU WILL ONLY BE PERMITTED TO PURSUE CLAIMS AND SEEK RELIEF AGAINST US ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS, NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING; AND (2) YOU ARE WAIVING YOUR RIGHT TO HAVE A JURY TRIAL ON YOUR CLAIMS.
The Service is optimally designed for use as a subscription service. As part of your first order, you are required to sign up to a product subscription program that provides monthly shipments of products in previous orders (“Autoship”). You will also receive a trial VIP membership with your first order (“VIP Trial”). The VIP Trial will automatically renew into an annual paid VIP membership unless otherwise stated in your Autoship offer. (VIP membership and Autoship are collectively referred to as “Grove Subscriptions”). The Grove Subscriptions will automatically renew for additional intervals (Autoship will ship monthly and VIP will renew yearly), unless you cancel or modify your Grove Subscriptions. After opening your account with Grove Collaborative and completing your first order, you may cancel your Grove Subscriptions at any time (as described below) and continue to use the Service. For additional information on how Grove Subscriptions work read the Overview below and visit How Grove Works.
Automatic Shipments. Grove Collaborative is primarily a subscription service.
Buying without Autoship. You do not need a Grove Subscription to purchase products from us. If have no active product subscriptions (or otherwise cancel Autoship), you will not receive product shipments automatically. You may still purchase products from the Service by selecting and ordering desired products
Shipping Details. We use third party carriers to ship items that you purchase, and as a result, the risk of loss and title for such items pass to you upon our delivery to the carrier.
VIP. We offer a VIP program for an annual fee. With your first order, you are enrolled in a free trial of Grove's VIP program, which gives you free shipping for orders over $29 and occasional free gifts.
You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Service. By agreeing to these Grove Collaborative Terms or by using the Service, you represent and warrant to us: (i) that you are at least 18 years of age; (ii) that you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Service; and (iii) that your registration and your use of the Service is in compliance with any and all applicable laws and regulations. If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Grove Collaborative Terms and that you agree to be bound by them on behalf of that organization.
You need an account to use most features of the Service, and you may be required to be logged into your account and have a valid payment method associated with it. You may visit your Account Settings to manage your payment information. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password and for restricting access to your account, and you agree to accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account or password. You agree that the information you provide to us is and will be accurate, complete and up-to-date at all times. If you provide any information that is inaccurate, incomplete or not up-to-date, or if we determine in our sole discretion that such information may be inaccurate, incomplete or not up-to-date, we have the right to suspend or terminate your account and refuse you any and all current or future use of Service. You may not register for more than one account or register for an account on behalf of an individual other than yourself. If you have reason to believe that your account is no longer secure, immediately notify us at support@grove.co.
Fees to access the service. Access to certain features of the Service and certain Grove Subscriptions (such as VIP), may require you to pay enrollment or membership fees plus applicable tax. We also charge fees for shipping (when not enrolled in VIP or for orders under the stated minimum) and supply chain costs. Autoship orders will be charged in amounts that may vary based on the type, quantity and frequency of the products that you have selected and subscribed to for Autoship.
Changes to Fees and Pricing. Grove Collaborative may change any fees associated with the Service, including its shipping fee, supply chain fee, and the VIP membership fee, on a going forward basis in any manner and at any time by providing notice by email or other communications. Grove Collaborative also reserves the right to change product pricing in any manner and at any time by publishing the new prices on the Service. Product pricing changes will be effective when published.
Methods of Payment. All amounts charged are in U.S. Dollars. You must provide us with a valid credit card (Visa, MasterCard, or any other issuer accepted by us) or PayPal account (“Payment Provider”). We will charge the Payment Provider you specify in your Account Setting. By providing your Payment Provider information, you authorize us or our third party payment processors to charge: (i) all membership or enrollment fees to such Payment Provider; and (ii) all fees associated with the Delivery Service and Subscription Service, including, without limitation, all applicable taxes, product costs and shipping fees, to such Payment Provider prior to shipment and on a per-delivery basis. If you pay any applicable fees with a credit card, we may seek pre-authorization of your credit card account prior to your purchase to verify that the credit card is valid and has the necessary funds or credit available to cover your purchase. If we do not receive payment from your Payment Provider, you must pay all amounts due upon demand and we may suspend your access to the Service until such amounts are paid. All sales are final and, except as provided in our refund policy, we will not issue refunds or accept returns.
Minimums. Your order must meet a certain dollar value of purchased products to be eligible for free shipping. These minimum amounts vary depending on the type of plan and the type of membership you selected. To balance our commitment to sustainability while offering the best customer experience, we offer the option to ship orders under $29 if you're a VIP, and under $49 if you're not, with a $4.99 shipping fee to help offset the environmental impact of small orders. We still hope to avoid Grove boxes going out with a single item rattling around inside, and we trust our customers to make the best decisions for the planet and their families. For more information on order minimums, please see our FAQs
Authorization for Automatic Renewal of Grove Collaborative Subscriptions. Your Grove Subscriptions will automatically charge as described above unless you cancel. You hereby authorize us to charge your Payment Provider now, and again at the beginning of any subsequent subscription period or order. Upon renewal of your subscription, if Grove Collaborative does not receive payment from your Payment Provider, (i) you agree to pay all amounts due on your account upon demand, and/or (ii) you agree that Grove Collaborative may either terminate or suspend the Subscription Services and continue to attempt to charge your Payment Provider until payment is received (upon receipt of payment, your account will be activated and for purposes of automatic renewal, your new subscription commitment period will begin as of the day payment was received). We will send you reminders of your upcoming subscription charges.
Referral Program. Subject to the Grove Collaborative Referral Program policy , we may offer members the ability to earn credits or discounts (“Referral Credits”) toward future shipments of products from Grove Collaborative. Please read our Referral Program for more details.
Third Party Providers. We use and reserve the right to continue using third party payment providers (“Payment Processors”). Your electronic payment of fees through any Payment Processors is also governed by the Payment Processors’ terms of service and privacy policy. Currently, we use Stripe, Inc. (“Stripe”) and PayPal, Inc. (“PayPal”) as our Payment Processors for payment services (e.g., card acceptance and related services), but may add others from time to time. By making payments via the Service, you agree to be bound by Stripe’s US Terms of Service available at https://stripe.com/us/terms and Privacy Policy available at https://stripe.com/us/privacy , PayPal’s User Agreement available at https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/ua/useragreement-full and Privacy Policy available at https://www.paypal.com/us/webapps/mpp/ua/privacy-full , as applicable. You hereby consent to provide and authorize Grove Collaborative and the Payment Processors to share any information and payment instructions you provide to the extent required to complete the payment transactions in accordance with the Grove Collaborative Terms, including personal, financial, credit card payment, and transaction information.
From time to time, we may give you the opportunity to pre-purchase limited edition, seasonal or specialty products during a pre-sale event. Your account will be charged when you place your pre-sale order. Please allow up to one year for your pre-sale items to ship. When the pre-sale products arrive in stock, we will send you an email to notify you of the estimated delivery date and we will display the pre-sale products in your cart as free products. If we’re unable to ship within one year from the date you placed your pre-sale order, or if you do not ship your pre-sale products within sixty five (65) days of the date you placed your pre-sale order, we will cancel the order and provide a full-refund. It is your responsibility to keep your billing and shipping information current; we are not responsible or liable if you fail to update this information. You can update your information at any time prior to your ship date by changing the shipping address in your account profile.
Your receipt of an electronic or other form of order confirmation does not signify our acceptance of your order. We reserve the right at any time after receipt of your order to accept or decline your order for any reason. We further reserve the right at any time after receipt of your order, without prior notice to you, to supply less than the quantity you ordered of any item. Your order will be deemed accepted by Grove Collaborative upon our delivery of the products that you have ordered. We may require additional verifications or information before accepting any order.
You may cancel orders provided that we have not begun to process the products in your order for shipment. You may do this by visiting your cart.
Your orders and your shipment dates can be modified at any time before the ship date specified in your Account Settings for your then-current order. You may update the date of your shipment and/or the items in your shipment, on grove.co/pantry. If you would like to stop automatic shipments, you can go to https://www.grove.co/shipments/schedule and click “Pause Auto-Shipments”.
Subject to the Grove Collaborative Refund Policy, you may request a refund if you are not completely satisfied with your purchase. Please read the Grove Collaborative Refund Policy for complete details on how to request a refund.
