These Terms of Use apply to our websites, microsites, and mobile versions of these websites (collectively, the “Website”) that expressly adopt, display, or link to these Terms of Use, as may be revised from time to time, and that are owned, operated, or controlled by Penn Station, Inc. or any of its affiliates (collectively, the “Company” or also referred to as “we,” “our,” or “us”).
These Terms of Use require you to arbitrate certain disputes with the Company rather than resolve disputes through a jury trial or class action, in accordance with the below section “Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate.”
While the Company operates and controls the Website, we are not responsible for the operation of franchised Penn Station restaurants. Instead, the franchised restaurants are owned and operated by independent franchisees. Each of these franchisees is solely and independently responsible for its legal and regulatory compliance, for any issues relating to the sale of menu items to you from their restaurant, and for any employment-related matters in the restaurant.
As between you and each such franchisee, each franchisee is intended to benefit from these Terms of Use as a beneficiary, with rights to enforce these Terms of Use against you; provided, however, the below section “Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate” shall not apply to disputes you have with any franchisee.
Your access to and use of the Website on your computer, mobile device, tablet, or other device (your “Device”) is subject to certain applicable third parties’ policies, terms and conditions, requirements, and usage rules, including but not limited to your mobile carrier rules, which you agree are, to the extent the foregoing are applicable, binding on you. You shall access and use the Website in strict compliance with all applicable laws, rules, and regulations.
Your access to and use of the Website (and Website Content) are subject to all terms and conditions in these Terms of Use.
BY ACCESSING, BROWSING, AND/OR USING ANY OF THE PAGES, ORDERING THROUGH, OR SERVICES POSTED ON THE WEBSITE, YOU (also referred to as the “User”) AGREE TO THESE TERMS OF USE. IF YOU DO NOT WISH TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS OF USE, PLEASE DO NOT ACCESS, BROWSE, OR USE THE WEBSITE.

An offer for the sale of a franchise is only commenced by the delivery of the franchise disclosure document to you in compliance with federal and state laws that regulate the sale of franchises. Information available on the Website regarding franchising and the terms and conditions in these Terms of Use do not affect the information or the terms and conditions in an applicable franchise disclosure document and/or franchise agreement.

The User represents and warrants that (i) the User is at least 18 years of age and is fully competent and able to enter into, and abide by, these Terms of Use; (ii) the User is not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a “terrorist support” country; and (iii) the User is not included on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.

Limitations of Liability. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, UNDER NO CIRCUMSTANCES AND UNDER NO LEGAL OR EQUITABLE THEORY, WHETHER IN TORT, CONTRACT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, SHALL THE COMPANY, ALONG WITH ITS PRESENT, PAST, AND FUTURE DIRECT AND INDIRECT AFFILIATES AND RELATED ENTITIES, AS WELL AS EACH OF THE PRESENT, PAST, AND FUTURE OFFICERS, DIRECTORS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, SHAREHOLDERS, OWNERS, INVESTORS, SUCCESSORS, ANDASSIGNS, BE LIABLE TO YOU OR TO ANY OTHER PERSON FOR ANY INDIRECT, SPECIAL, INCIDENTAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL LOSSES OR DAMAGES OF ANY NATURE ARISING OUT OF, OR IN CONNECTION WITH, THE USE OF OR ACCESS TO OR INABILITY TO USE OR ACCESS THE WEBSITE (INCLUDING THE WEBSITE CONTENT), INCLUDING, WITHOUT LIMITATION, DAMAGES FOR LOST PROFITS, LOSS OF GOODWILL, LOSS OF DATA, ACCURACY OF RESULTS, OR COMPUTER FAILURE OR MALFUNCTION, DAMAGE TO YOUR OR A THIRD PERSON'S COMPUTER AND/OR ITS CONTENTS, EVEN IF AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF THE COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF OR SHOULD HAVE KNOWN OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. IN NO EVENT WILL THE COMPANY BE LIABLE FOR ANY DAMAGES IN EXCESS OF ONE HUNDRED UNITED STATES DOLLARS ($100.00) FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OF USE (INCLUDING THE WEBSITE AND THE WEBSITE CONTENT). The foregoing limitations will apply even if any stated remedy fails of its essential purpose. In some jurisdictions, certain limitations of liability are not permitted, and, to that extent, such limitations on liability may not apply to you.
Indemnity. Upon request by the Company, the User agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company and its affiliates and their respective employees, contractors, officers, directors, and licensors from and against all claims, suits, demands, damages, liabilities, losses, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) that arise from: (i) the User’s misuse of the Website (or the Website Content); (ii) the User’s violation of these Terms of Use; (iii) the User’s violation of any third-party right, including without limitation any copyright, property, or privacy right; or (iv) any claim that the User Content resulted in damage to a third party.

These indemnification obligations will survive any termination of these Terms of Use.
Governing Law. These Terms of Use are governed by the laws of the State of Ohio and applicable federal laws of the United States of America, without giving effect to conflict of laws principles.
>Injunctive Relief. You agree that your breach or threatened breach of these Terms of Use will cause us irreparable injury for which recovery of monetary damages would be inadequate and that we, therefore, may obtain timely injunctive relief to protect our rights under these Terms of Use in addition to any and all other remedies available to us at law or in equity.
Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate.
Jurisdiction. Subject to the below sub-section “Agreement to Arbitrate” and for any disputes not otherwise subject to arbitration, the User irrevocably consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the federal and state courts situated in or for Cincinnati, Ohio, USA, for purposes of any legal action arising out of or related to these Terms of Use or access to or use of the Website.
Agreement to Arbitrate. Any civil action, claim, dispute, or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use or access to or use of the Website will be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, before a single arbitrator, rather than in court (except as provided in the section “Injunctive Relief”). Except as provided in the section “Injunctive Relief,” the arbitrator – and not any federal, state, or local court or agency – will have exclusive authority to resolve any dispute arising out of these Terms of Use or access to or use of the Website, and to arbitrate any part of these Terms of Use, including any claim that all or any part of the this section or these Terms of Use is void or voidable.
The arbitration will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (the “AAA”) exclusively in Cincinnati, Ohio, USA, under the AAA’s rules and procedures, as modified by this section. The AAA’s rules and a form for initiating arbitration proceedings are available at https://www.adr.org.
You and we will select the arbitrator, and, if you and we are unable to reach agreement on selection of the arbitrator within 30 days after the notice of arbitration is served, then the AAA will select the arbitrator. Arbitration will not commence until the party requesting arbitration has deposited such fees and costs as required by the AAA for arbitration of the type of claim brought by the person requesting arbitration. The party requesting arbitration will advance such sums as are required from time to time by the arbitrator to pay the arbitrator’s fees and costs until the prevailing party is determined or the parties have agreed in writing to an alternate allocation of fees and costs.
The arbitrator will decide the substance of all claims exclusively in accordance with the laws of the State of Ohio, including recognized principles of equity, and will honor all claims of privilege recognized by law. The arbitrator will not be bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving our other users, but is bound by rulings in prior arbitrations involving the same user to the extent required by applicable law. Judgment upon any award rendered by the arbitrator is final, binding, and conclusive upon you and us and your and our respective administrators, executors, legal representatives, successors and assigns, and may only be entered in the federal or state courts of record in or for Cincinnati, Ohio, USA.
THE USER IS GIVING UP RIGHTS TO HAVE A TRIAL BY JURY.
Prohibition of Class and Representative Actions and Non-Individualized Relief: EACH OF US MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT AS A PART OF ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE ACTION OR PROCEEDING. UNLESS BOTH YOU AND WE AGREE OTHERWISE IN WRITING, THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE OR JOIN MORE THAN ONE PERSON’S OR PARTY’S CLAIMS, AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A CONSOLIDATED, REPRESENTATIVE, OR CLASS PROCEEDING. THE ARBITRATOR MAY AWARD RELIEF (INCLUDING MONETARY, INJUNCTIVE AND DECLARATORY RELIEF) ONLY IN FAVOR OF THE INDIVIDUAL PARTY SEEKING RELIEF AND ONLY TO THE EXTENT NECESSARY TO PROVIDE RELIEF NECESSITATED BY THAT PARTY’S INDIVIDUAL CLAIM(S). ANY RELIEF AWARDED CANNOT AFFECT OTHER USERS.
For clarification, this section on “Dispute Resolution and Agreement to Arbitrate” does not apply to claims relating to goods or services purchased at franchised restaurants, and any such claims must be directed to the franchisee who owns and operates the restaurant where the purchase was made.
