In addition to terms that apply generally to the online services, these terms contain sections applicable to the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards program, Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Text Messaging program, and the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Delivery program that apply only with regard to your participation in those programs. The terms for these programs may vary from the terms applicable to the online services generally.

Please also review Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Privacy Statement, which describes how we collect, use, and share information. By accepting these terms, you also understand and agree these terms will govern any disputes arising out of or related to Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Privacy Statement.

By accepting these terms, you understand and agree that, as stated in Section 9, you are waiving your right to resolve any dispute through other processes that could be available to you, such as court actions or administrative proceedings. It also means that you are waiving your rights to a trial by jury or to combine your dispute with others in a class action.

The online services are not intended to be used by, or targeted to, anyone under the age of 13 years old. You must be at least 13 years old to use the online services.

If you do not agree to these terms, then you must immediately stop using the online services and request that Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant close any online services account that you have created. You can request account deletion by visiting the Privacy Rights Center and making a deletion request.

1. ABOUT THE ONLINE SERVICES.

Availability of products and services.

Don Pedro’s products and services are available in many parts of the world. However, the online services may describe products and services that are not available worldwide.

Obey the rules of the road.

Whenever you use the online services, you must obey the rules of the road and all applicable rules and regulations. You must not use the online services while driving or while behind the wheel or controls of a vehicle that is moving or not in “park”. In the interest of safety at all times, you should only use the online services when it is lawful and safe to do so.

You are responsible for your devices and accounts.

You are responsible for any devices, software and services needed to use the online services. Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant does not guarantee that the online services will fully function on any particular device or with any particular software. You are also responsible for any messaging and data charges, fees, and taxes for your use of the online services, including when we communicate with you by text, email, or other means that you choose. You may only use the online services with devices that you own or control and using only the authorized operating system (e.g., Apple iPhone OS for Apple devices). If you create an online services account, you are responsible for keeping the account secure and for all activity under the account. You can only use one online services account and must keep your account information accurate at all times. An email may be required to create an online services account. You are not permitted to register multiple accounts under multiple email addresses.

Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant right to update or terminate the online services.

You understand and consent that (with or without notice) Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant may update, modify, or terminate the online services (or your access to them) from time to time, including by pushing updates to (or removing functionality or access from) any Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant mobile app that you have installed on your device. If you are not satisfied with the online services following such changes, your sole remedy is to discontinue use of those online services.

Updates to these terms.

Don Pedro’s may also update these terms at any time and at its sole discretion. If Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant makes material changes to the terms, we will notify you by reasonable means. In addition, Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant will post the new terms in the online service.  Please review these terms from time to time to view any changes. If you do not agree to the changed terms, then you must immediately stop using the online services and request that Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant close any online services account that you have created. To close your account, you can visit ‘your profile’ and select ‘delete account’.

Independent businesses own and operate many restaurants.

While Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant operates and controls the online services, it is not responsible for the operation of most restaurants. Most restaurants are instead owned and operated by independent franchisees of Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant and some are operated by Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant subsidiaries (such franchisees and subsidiaries are together, “restaurants”). Each restaurant is solely and independently responsible for its legal and regulatory compliance, for any issues relating to the supply of the products to you, and for any employment related matters in the restaurant.

Links to job opportunities from the online services.

Don Pedro’s and all restaurants are equal opportunity employers committed to diverse workforces. The online services may provide links to job opportunities posted by Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant or restaurants. These opportunities are with the restaurant alone and not with Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant or its parent company (Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Corporation). This means that the restaurant that posted the opportunity is alone responsible for setting the job requirements, all hiring decisions, and all other employment related matters in its business. Neither Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant nor its parent company receives a copy of any application you submit to a restaurant that is a franchisee, neither controls whether you receive an interview or are hired, and neither controls franchisees’ employment policies and practices. Neither Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant nor its parent company employs independent franchisees. If you are hired by a restaurant that is a franchisee, only that franchisee, and not Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant or its parent company (Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Corporation), will be your employer.

How to contact us.

2. OUR INFORMATION PRACTICES AND COMMUNICATIONS WITH YOU.

How we communicate with you.

Through the online services, you may opt in to receive emails, text messages to the mobile number you provide to us or push notifications from Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant.

Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant may use the information you have provided to us to communicate with you in accordance with Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Privacy Statement andWashington Privacy Notice.

Opting out of communications generally.

You have a choice in how we communicate with you.

You may also have the ability to change certain communication preferences, such as mobile app notifications, using your device settings. In addition, our communications themselves may include the opportunity to opt out, such as by selecting the “unsubscribe” link in emails, or following the opt-out procedures for text messages described in the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Text Messaging Program Terms & Conditions. You understand and agree that you may need to separately manage your communication preferences for each communication method. For example, if you opt out of receiving marketing emails, you may still receive marketing text messages if you’ve opted in to receiving them. While we do our best to offer convenient methods for you to manage your communications preferences, you may need to separately adjust your preferences for each online service. Please note that for some account-related and transactional communications, the only way to stop receiving these communications may be to close your online services account. Lastly, please note that if you are receiving communications from a Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant franchisee, then you will need to opt out from them directly.

3. PLACING ORDERS FOR RESTAURANT PICK-UPS AND MOBILE ORDER & PAY (MOP).

This section applies to orders you place using the online services, including in certain geographic areas where you can order ahead via the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant mobile app so the restaurant can start your order ahead of your arrival (excluding delivery). This program is known as “MOP” or the “MOP Program.” Please read this section before you send any orders to restaurants using the online services and/or MOP. Please note that ordering may not be available in all online services. If you are within the geographical areas where MOP is available, the MOP option may be displayed to you. Please refer to the Mobile Order & Pay FAQs for more information on ordering and MOP.

About ordering.

The purpose of ordering (including MOP) is to provide customers with a convenient way of building orders for products in advance and submitting their orders to a participating restaurant. You must register an online services account in order to use ordering (including MOP). Before you submit an order, you must register a credit card or debit card (either one, a “payment card”) or another payment method that Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant supports to use with your orders. Not all restaurants may choose to make their products available via ordering. Please note MOP may not be available in all geographic areas or through all online services that Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant provides. You may need to enable location services on your device in order for ordering to function properly.

Registering your payment method.

Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant and the restaurants use third party payment services providers to securely store your payment card information and process your payments to restaurants. You understand and agree that, when you register a payment card, Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant or its third party payment services providers may verify that the payment card you registered is valid, including by authorizing a low-value, temporary charge.   You are able to update your saved payment method information if there are changes to that information (e.g., as a result of a re-issued card with new account numbers and expiration date).  Alternatively, Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant and its third party payment services providers may obtain updated payment method information from your bank or financial services institution provided you have authorized your bank or financial services institution to provide this updated information. You also understand and agree that when you use ordering to make a purchase from a restaurant, that restaurant will be the merchant of record. Restaurants may require information other than your order code to verify your purchase. You represent and warrant that you are of sufficient age and have all legal rights to use all payment methods you register.

You purchase products directly from restaurants.

When you use ordering (including MOP), you submit orders directly to a participating restaurant and the contract for supplying the products will be between you and the restaurant that accepts your order. The restaurant where you collect your products is responsible for preparing the products and providing them to you. You further understand and agree that you are purchasing directly from restaurants (and not Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant or any other Members of the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant System, as defined below) and that neither Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant nor any other Members of the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant System have any responsibility arising out of or related to any products that you purchase from restaurants using ordering. Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Corporation (which is Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant parent company), its subsidiaries, affiliates, their franchisees, agents, representatives, and agencies and their officers, directors, and employees are together, “Members of the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant System”.

About the products in the online services.

All products are subject to availability at the restaurant where you collect your order. Some restaurants do not sell all products. Images of products and packaging on the online services are examples only and may not be identical to the product or packaging you receive from a restaurant. Differences may be due to your device’s display of colors or factors such as the ingredients used, the supplier, the region of the country, and the season of the year.

About the prices in ordering.

Each restaurant independently determines its own prices and independently applies any additional taxes and fees as required by law. Certain offers and pricing may not be available for all orders at all locations. In the event you discover an error in the price of a product charged to you, please contact the restaurant where you purchased the product to seek a refund of the difference.

Building, confirming and sending your order to a restaurant.

You can use ordering to build your order and send it to a participating restaurant that you select. Payment is charged when you select ‘Pay & Place Order’. Orders made must be collected in person from the restaurant.

Paying for your order.

When you select ‘Pay & Place Order’ you authorize the restaurant to process your order total. The restaurant’s payment service provider will process your order total amount to the payment method you selected when you built your order. Orders must be collected in person from the restaurant you selected when placing your order. You own the products after you have collected them.

Cancelling your order, refunds and your consumer rights.

You have the ability to update or abandon your order at any time prior to selecting ‘Pay & Place Order’. If you desire to seek a refund for any reason after you select ’Pay & Place Order’, including if the products are unsatisfactory or other reasons, please contact the restaurant where you purchased the product. The decision regarding how to resolve any refund request is in the discretion of the restaurant where you purchased the product (excluding delivery). Your legal rights in this respect are not affected by anything in these terms.

Complaints.

If you have a complaint about your experience with a Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant restaurant or product, please contact the restaurant in question. Alternatively, you may contact Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Customer Care. Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant cannot possibly read or respond to every single comment made in other channels, such as social media. Please immediately contact Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Customer Care with any concerns or reports of a serious nature.

Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant provides the online services “AS-IS” and without any warranties.

Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant disclaims all warranties of merchantability and fitness or a particular purpose. Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant does not warrant or make any representation that the online services will be accurate, reliable, uninterrupted or error-free, that defects will be corrected, or that the online services are free of viruses or other harmful components. You assume total responsibility related to your use of the online services.

Third party services.

The online services may link to or allow you to use third-party websites, downloadable materials, content, social networks, or other digital services (together, “third party services”).

How we settle disputes.

You agree that:

  1. any claim or dispute (whether in contract, tort, or otherwise) you may have with Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant or any other Members of the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant System arising from or related to the online services or these terms will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration administered by JAMS and conducted before a single arbitrator using JAMS’s Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“rules and procedures”);
  2. this arbitration agreement is made pursuant to a transaction involving interstate commerce, and shall be governed by the Federal Arbitration Act (“FAA”), 9 U.S.C. §§ 1-16;
  3. prior to you or Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant initiating arbitration by filing a Notice of Claims with JAMS, you and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant will engage in the informal dispute resolution process outlined in this paragraph. First, the party interested in pursuing a dispute related to the online services must give written notice to the other party of the party’s intent to initiate an informal dispute resolution conference (the “Notice”). The Notice shall contain: (1) the initiating party’s name; (2) the initiating party’s preferred contact information; (3) a brief description of the dispute; and (4) the relief sought. If you are the initiating party, the Notice must be sent via e-mail to contact@donpedroslongview.com. Second, within 60 days of the non-initiating party’s receipt of the Notice, or at a later date if you and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant mutually agree to enlarge the 60-day period, the parties shall make a good-faith attempt to resolve their dispute by participating in a live telephone call or videoconference.  If you are represented by counsel, your attorney(s) may participate in the dispute resolution conference, but you must be present and must participate in the conference as well.  Engaging in this informal dispute resolution process is a prerequisite to commencing arbitration.  The statute of limitations and all arbitration filing fee deadlines shall be tolled while you and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant engage in this process;
  4. if, following the informal dispute resolution process described in subpart 3 above, either you or Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant decides to file a Notice of Claims or some other type of demand for arbitration, the demand must include: (1) the name and contact information of the party initiating arbitration; (2) the legal claims being asserted; (3) a detailed explanation of the factual basis for those claims; and (4) a detailed explanation of both the nature and the amount of the relief sought.  Filing a demand that does not include the above information may result in the rejection of your demand for arbitration;
  5. the arbitration shall be held at a location determined by JAMS under its rules and procedures (provided such location is reasonably convenient to you), or at such other location as may be mutually agreed to by you and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant or other Members of the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant System;
  6. the arbitrator’s decision shall be based on these terms and any of the other agreements referenced herein that you may have entered into in connection with the online services;
  7. the arbitrator shall apply Illinois law consistent with the FAA, and applicable statutes of limitations, and shall honor claims of privilege recognized at law;
  8. no claims shall be arbitrated on a class or representative basis as you and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant hereby waive the right to assert claims in any class or representative action; arbitration will therefore only decide the individual claims of you and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant; it is agreed that the arbitrator may not consolidate or join the claims of any other person or party to an arbitration between you and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant under this provision;
  9. you and Don Pedro’s empower the arbitrator with the exclusive authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, applicability or enforceability of these terms or formation of this contract, including the arbitrability of any dispute and any claim that all or any part of these terms are void or voidable;
  10. in the event that the administrative fees, arbitrator fees and filing fees associated with the arbitration exceed $250 USD, Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant agrees to pay any such administrative, arbitrator and filing fees exceeding $250 on your behalf, subject to ultimate allocation by the arbitrator. If you can demonstrate that the cost of initiating your claims in a court of law would be less than $250, Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant will pay the portion of the administrative, arbitrator and filing fees that exceed the demonstrated cost of initiating your claims in court.  In addition, if you can demonstrate that the costs of arbitration will be prohibitive as compared to the costs of litigation, Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant will pay as much of your fees in connection with the arbitration as the arbitrator deems necessary to prevent the arbitration from being cost-prohibitive;
  11. if more than 1,000 arbitration demands are filed against Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant relating to substantially the same business decision or underlying facts by individuals who followed the procedures set forth in subsections 3 and 4 above and are represented by the same counsel or coordinated counsel, and if no substantive ruling has been made in an arbitration between you and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant relating to that decision or those facts, then both you and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant have the unilateral right to opt out of this arbitration provision and have your dispute heard in state court in DuPage County, Illinois or in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois by sending a written notice to the other party; and
  12. with the exception of subparts 8 and 11 above, if any part of this arbitration provision is deemed to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, or otherwise conflicts with the rules and procedures, then the balance of this arbitration provision shall remain in effect and shall be construed in accordance with its terms as if the invalid, unenforceable, illegal or conflicting provision were not contained herein. If, however, either or both of subparts 8 and 11above are found to be invalid, unenforceable or illegal, then the entirety of this arbitration provision shall be null and void, and neither Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant nor you shall be entitled to arbitrate their dispute. In such event, you agree to bring any and all claims arising out of or related to these terms or the online services in either the state courts of DuPage County, Illinois or the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois. If litigation ensues for any reason, both you and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant agree to waive any right to a trial by jury. Further, neither you nor Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant shall be precluded from seeking remedies in small claims court for disputes or claims within the scope of its jurisdiction.  Finally, this arbitration provision is reciprocally binding on all parties, such that both you and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant are required to arbitrate their claims against one another. For more information on JAMS and/or JAMS Rules and Procedures, you may visit the JAMS Website.

Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant REWARDS TERMS (USA)

Effective: Jan 1, 2024

In certain geographical areas, Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant makes available its Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards program (“Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards”, or the “program”). If you are within those geographical areas, the program may be displayed to you.

These Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards Terms (USA) (the “program terms”) apply only if you join the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards program and participate in the program as part of your use of the online services. The program terms are intended to supplement (not change) the Terms and Conditions for Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Online Services (USA) (the “online services terms”). When the word “terms” is used without any reference to the “program terms” or the “online services terms,” it is meant to encompass both sets of terms. All definitions used in the online services terms apply to these program terms.

You understand and acknowledge that you have already agreed to the online services terms when you registered and logged into your online services account. Although the program terms are intended to supplement and not to change the online services terms, in the event of a conflict between the program terms and online services terms that relates to the program itself, the program terms will control. In the event of any other conflict between the program terms and the online services terms, the online services terms will control.

Important: You understand and acknowledge that Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards is subject to the arbitration agreement, jury and class action waivers, limitations on Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant liability, as set forth in Section 9, above, and other provisions that affect your legal rights regarding the online services, including the program as part of the online services. Please carefully read and understand these terms.

Eligibility and enrollment.

Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards is only open to you if you meet the age requirements for the online services. In order to join Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards, you must register an online services account. When you use the online services outside of the geographical area of the program, neither the program nor any points you accumulated in the program will be available to you.

How to earn points.

Once enrolled in the program, when you identify your online services account at the time of purchase, you will earn 100 points for every $1 U.S. dollar spent on qualifying purchases. You can identify your online services account at the time of purchase by any way that we recognize, such as: (a) making a purchase using the Mobile Order & Pay feature of the mobile app, (b) scanning a QR code at a register or kiosk, or (c) giving the code displayed in your account to the restaurant crew person who is taking your order.

If you don’t properly identify your online services account before you complete your qualifying purchase, a manual adjustment can be made to add the points to your account for up to seven (7) days from the actual purchase date. As long as you ordered at a restaurant that participates in Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards, you can use your receipt from the restaurant to get missing points in the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant app.

Qualifying purchases.

A “qualifying purchase” means using the online services to purchase eligible products from a participating restaurant in a manner that properly identifies you as described above. Qualifying purchases where an active reward, mobile offer, or promotional offer is redeemed will accrue points, but you will only accrue points for U.S. dollars actually spent in the transaction. Further, the following are not considered qualifying purchases and will not accrue points: (a) taxes, bag and bottle fees, and other surcharges or fees, and (b) loading any money on a Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Arch card (gift card), but when a Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Arch card is used to make a qualifying purchase, you will accrue points.

Verifying your points balance.

You can check your points balance in your online services account using the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant app. Points that you earn may not always immediately post to your account. You are responsible to ensure points from your qualifying purchases are correct. If you believe points from your qualifying purchase were incorrectly calculated, you must notify Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant within six (6) months of the qualifying purchase by providing your receipt to Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Customer Care. Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant has the sole discretion to determine points in your account and Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant has no liability for any delay or failure to correctly credit points to your account.

Exchanging your points for rewards that you choose.

You can exchange your points for rewards for free products on the Rewards Menu (each a “reward”), which you can then use at participating restaurants. You must use the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant app or other online services in order to exchange your points for rewards. If you have enough points for a reward, the reward will be unlocked in the online services and be available for a points exchange. Potential rewards for which you don’t have enough points may be displayed but locked. Once you select a reward and exchange your points for it, the number of points for that reward will be temporarily deducted from your account and the reward will be displayed in your account. The reward will temporarily remain in your account until you redeem it for a product, and if you do not, it will be converted back to points. When you redeem the reward for which you exchanged points, the points will be permanently deducted from your account and will not be refunded to your account for any reason, even if your order is cancelled. You cannot exchange points for more than one reward at a time. When you redeem your reward for a product, you are obtaining that product directly from the participating restaurant, not from other Members of the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant System.

Other ways to earn and redeem.

From time to time, Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant may offer new and different ways for you to earn and redeem points, including bonus campaigns or points accelerators. Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant has the sole discretion to offer, change and terminate the different ways to earn and redeem points, including for example, the points associated with bonus campaigns and accelerators. Sometimes earning and redeeming points may be subject to additional terms disclosed at the time of the offer.

Rewards Menu.

Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant publishes eligible rewards in the online services and identifies how many points are required for each reward. The Rewards Menu may have multiple reward levels and multiple rewards on each level, which can change from time to time.  Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant makes no promise of the continued availability of any reward, even if it is displayed to you in the online services.  Rewards are available until supplies last at participating restaurants and may be modified, changed and discontinued at any time.

Point expiration.

Points expire on the first (1st) day of the month after the sixth (6th) month from the date such points were earned. Points will be maintained in your online services account until you exchange your points for a reward, or until they expire, whichever occurs first.  If Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant terminates the program, any unused points in your account will expire and be void when the program is terminated. Upon termination of your online services account for any reason (including, but not limited to, whether you choose to close your account or Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant terminates your account for a violation of these terms), all points that you have accumulated in Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards will immediately expire. By opting out of the Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards program, all points and rewards you have earned until now will no longer be available.

Your compliance with the terms.

Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant has the discretion to invalidate or void points from your online services account, or to suspend or terminate your account (both now and in the future), if Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant believes you improperly obtained points, abused the program or otherwise violated these terms. In that event, you forfeit any points you have accumulated (including properly obtained points) and you forfeit your right to earn points in the future. Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant has the sole discretion to determine your compliance with these terms. Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant determination is final.

No rights in points.

Points are not property and you have no vested right or interest in points. Points have no cash value. Points are not assignable or transferrable between online services accounts or otherwise, and points cannot be combined across accounts, regardless of who registered the account.

Changes to Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards.

Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards can change from time to time, so be sure to continue to refer to these terms for the latest details and news. We are also constantly improving the program and we may have exciting new offers.

Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to cancel, change, modify or discontinue Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant Rewards, in whole or in part, including any terms, rules, features, benefits, rewards, conditions of participation, points accruing or accumulation ratio, the points redemption policy, the points expiration policy, or any other aspect of the program at any time, and such changes may affect points and rewards already in your account. We will post any changes to the program terms to the online services so that you can review the current terms at any time. Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant may make changes to any element of the program to correct for typographical, printing or other errors and you waive any rights relating to same.  Any changes will become effective immediately upon posting the revisions.  At all times, you are solely responsible for remaining knowledgeable about and in compliance with these terms.

Miscellaneous.

All rewards offered via the program are subject to availability. Some participating restaurants do not sell all products offered as rewards.  Images of products and packaging of rewards are examples only and may not be identical to the product or packaging you receive from a participating restaurant.

You will not be able to choose the restaurant or the third-party delivery provider, as each will be pre-determined for you based on a number of different factors, including the delivery address.

Eligibility and Enrollment

You must register an online services account in order to use delivery. Before you submit an order for delivery, you must register a credit card or debit card (either one, a “payment card”) to be associated with your online services account, or use another payment method that Don Pedro’s Mexican Restaurant supports to use with your orders.
