PART II — TERMS OF SALE

 

8.  Our Products; Cottage Food Nature and Statutory Basis

 

8.1 Company sells homemade breads and other baked goods (the “Products”) that are produced in a private residence as a “cottage food production operation” within the meaning of Chapter 437 of the Texas Health and Safety Code (the “Cottage Food Law”), as amended, including by Senate Bill 541, 89th Legislature, Regular Session (2025), effective September 1, 2025, and the implementing rules at 25 Texas Administrative Code § 229.661.

 

8.2 As a cottage food production operation, Company is exempt from the licensing, permitting, and inspection requirements applicable to food service establishments and is not required to comply with the Texas Food Establishment Rules. See Tex. Health & Safety Code §§ 437.001(2-b), 437.0192. The Products are not prepared in a licensed or inspected commercial facility.

 

8.3 Our Products are intended for direct sale to the end consumer for personal consumption and are sold subject to the Cottage Food Law’s annual gross-sales and other limitations. The Products are not offered for resale by you.

 

9.  Required Cottage Food Disclosure

 

In accordance with the Cottage Food Law and its labeling requirements (Tex. Health & Safety Code § 437.0193), each Product is labeled with, and you acknowledge and agree to the following disclosure:

 

THIS PRODUCT WAS PRODUCED IN A PRIVATE RESIDENCE THAT IS NOT SUBJECT TO GOVERNMENTAL LICENSING OR INSPECTION.

 

Before you complete a purchase, the Company provides the product name, ingredient list, allergen information, and the disclosure above on the Site, consistent with Texas Health & Safety Code § 437.0194.

 

10.  Allergen and Food-Safety Warnings; Assumption of Risk

 

10.1 OUR PRODUCTS ARE BAKED IN A HOME KITCHEN THAT IS NOT ALLERGEN-FREE. OUR PRODUCTS CONTAIN OR MAY CONTAIN, AND ARE PREPARED IN A KITCHEN THAT ALSO HANDLES, THE FOLLOWING MAJOR FOOD ALLERGENS: WHEAT AND GLUTEN, EGGS, MILK AND OTHER DAIRY, SOY, TREE NUTS, PEANUTS, AND SESAME. BECAUSE THESE ALLERGENS ARE PRESENT IN THE SAME KITCHEN, WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT ANY PRODUCT IS FREE FROM CROSS-CONTACT WITH ANY ALLERGEN, EVEN IF THE ALLERGEN IS NOT AN INTENDED INGREDIENT.

10.2 OUR PRODUCTS ARE NOT GLUTEN-FREE AND ARE NOT SUITABLE FOR INDIVIDUALS WITH CELIAC DISEASE OR WHEAT, GLUTEN, OR OTHER FOOD ALLERGIES OR SENSITIVITIES, UNLESS A SPECIFIC PRODUCT IS EXPRESSLY LABELED OTHERWISE. EVEN WHERE A PRODUCT IS DESCRIBED AS FREE FROM A PARTICULAR INGREDIENT, TRACE AMOUNTS MAY BE PRESENT DUE TO SHARED EQUIPMENT AND SURFACES.

 

10.3 IT IS YOUR SOLE RESPONSIBILITY TO REVIEW THE INGREDIENT AND ALLERGEN INFORMATION PROVIDED FOR EACH PRODUCT BEFORE ORDERING AND CONSUMING IT, AND TO CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN IF YOU HAVE ANY FOOD ALLERGY, SENSITIVITY, OR OTHER MEDICAL CONDITION. IF YOU HAVE OR MAY HAVE A FOOD ALLERGY, DO NOT PURCHASE OR CONSUME OUR PRODUCTS WITHOUT FIRST CONFIRMING THEIR SUITABILITY FOR YOU.

 

10.4 BY PURCHASING AND CONSUMING OUR PRODUCTS, YOU KNOWINGLY AND VOLUNTARILY ASSUME ALL RISKS ASSOCIATED WITH THE CONSUMPTION OF FOODS PREPARED IN A PRIVATE, UNINSPECTED HOME KITCHEN, INCLUDING THE RISK OF ALLERGIC REACTION AND FOODBORNE ILLNESS, AND YOU ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY FOR ENSURING THAT THE PRODUCTS ARE SUITABLE FOR YOURSELF AND ANYONE TO WHOM YOU SERVE THEM.

 

11.  Orders and Formation of the Contract

 

11.1 Product listings on the Site are an invitation to make an offer and not a binding offer to sell. Your submission of an order constitutes your offer to purchase the Products at the listed price, subject to this Agreement.

11.2 No contract is formed until we accept your order, which occurs when we send an order confirmation or otherwise begin fulfillment. We may, in our sole discretion, decline or cancel any order, in whole or in part, for any lawful reason — including suspected error, unavailability of ingredients, pricing errors, suspected fraud, or quantities that exceed Cottage Food Law limits — and, if you have already been charged, we will issue a refund of the affected amount.

11.3 We may impose limits on order quantities and reserve the right to correct any errors, inaccuracies, or omissions and to change or update information at any time without prior notice.

 

12.  Prices, Taxes, and Payment

12.1 All prices are stated in U.S. dollars and are exclusive of any applicable sales or other taxes, which will be added at checkout where required. You are responsible for all such taxes.

 

12.2 Payment is processed exclusively through third-party payment processors, such as Stripe and PayPal (each, a “Payment Processor”). Your payment is subject to the Payment Processor’s own terms of service and privacy policy. By submitting an order, you authorize us, through our Payment Processor, to charge your selected payment method for the total order amount.

 

12.3 We do not collect, process, or store your full payment card number or other sensitive payment credentials; those are handled directly by the Payment Processor. We are not responsible for the acts, omissions, security, or availability of any Payment Processor.

 

13.  Fulfillment, Delivery, and Risk of Loss

13.1 Products are available for (a) local pickup at a designated location in Richardson, Texas, or (b) personal delivery by Company personnel within a sixty (60)-mile radius of Richardson, Texas, by arrangement at the time of order. Estimated preparation and delivery or pickup windows are estimates only and are not guaranteed. We are not liable for delays beyond our reasonable control.

13.2 Unless otherwise agreed in writing, title to and risk of loss for the Products pass to you upon delivery to you or to the location you designate, or upon your pickup. You are responsible for providing accurate delivery and contact information; we are not responsible for Products that are undeliverable, refused, or spoiled due to your failure to be available to receive or promptly refrigerate (where applicable) a Product.

14.  Perishability; Storage and Handling

The Products are fresh, perishable foods made without commercial preservatives. You are responsible for inspecting the Products promptly on receipt and for storing, handling, and consuming them in accordance with any storage and “best by” or “consume by” information provided. We are not responsible for any deterioration in quality or safety resulting from improper storage or handling after delivery, or from consumption after any stated date.

15.  Cancellations, Returns, and Refunds

15.1 Because the Products are perishable foods made to order, all sales are final and the Products are not eligible for return or exchange once delivered or picked up.

 

15.2 If you receive a Product that is materially defective, damaged in our preparation, or materially nonconforming to your order, you must notify us at cory@realbread.life within twenty-four (24) hours of delivery or pickup, with your order information and, where reasonably possible, a photograph. As your sole and exclusive remedy, we will, at our option, replace the affected Product or refund its purchase price.

15.3 Order changes or cancellations requested before we begin preparation may be accommodated at our discretion; once preparation has begun, orders generally cannot be changed or cancelled.

16.  Disclaimer of Warranties

16.1  EXCEPT FOR ANY EXPRESS WARRANTY STATED IN WRITING BY COMPANY, THE PRODUCTS AND THE SITE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, COMPANY DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, TERMS, AND CONDITIONS, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. COMPANY DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE PRODUCTS ARE FREE FROM ANY ALLERGEN OR THAT THEY ARE SUITABLE FOR ANY PARTICULAR DIETARY, HEALTH, OR MEDICAL NEED.

16.2  CONTENT ON THE SITE DISCUSSING THE NUTRITIONAL CHARACTERISTICS OF FRESHLY MILLED WHOLE-GRAIN FLOUR AND OUR PRODUCTS IS PROVIDED FOR GENERAL INFORMATIONAL AND EDUCATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY AND REFLECTS GENERAL NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION AND ANECDOTAL REPORTS; IT IS NOT INTENDED AS, AND DOES NOT CONSTITUTE, A HEALTH CLAIM, MEDICAL ADVICE, OR A REPRESENTATION THAT THE PRODUCTS WILL DIAGNOSE, TREAT, CURE, OR PREVENT ANY DISEASE OR MEDICAL CONDITION. COMPANY MAKES NO WARRANTY THAT THE PRODUCTS ARE SUITABLE FOR ANY PARTICULAR DIETARY, HEALTH, OR MEDICAL NEED. NO INFORMATION OBTAINED FROM COMPANY OR THE SITE CREATES ANY WARRANTY NOT EXPRESSLY STATED IN THIS AGREEMENT. ALWAYS CONSULT YOUR PHYSICIAN OR OTHER QUALIFIED HEALTH PROVIDER BEFORE MAKING DIETARY CHANGES IF YOU HAVE OR SUSPECT A MEDICAL CONDITION.

17.  Limitation of Liability

 

17.1  TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, COMPANY’S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ANY AND ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE PRODUCTS, THE SITE, OR THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU ACTUALLY PAID TO COMPANY FOR THE PRODUCT(S) GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.

 

17.2  IN NO EVENT WILL COMPANY OR ITS OWNERS, MEMBERS, MANAGERS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, OR GOODWILL, WHETHER ARISING IN CONTRACT, TORT, STRICT LIABILITY, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF COMPANY HAS BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. THESE LIMITATIONS APPLY EVEN IF A REMEDY FAILS OF ITS ESSENTIAL PURPOSE.

 

17.3  THE FOREGOING LIMITATIONS DO NOT APPLY TO LIABILITY THAT CANNOT BE LIMITED OR EXCLUDED UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, INCLUDING LIABILITY FOR GROSS NEGLIGENCE OR WILLFUL MISCONDUCT, AND NOTHING IN THIS AGREEMENT WAIVES, LIMITS, OR DISCLAIMS ANY RIGHT OR REMEDY THAT MAY NOT BE WAIVED, LIMITED, OR DISCLAIMED UNDER THE TEXAS DECEPTIVE TRADE PRACTICES–CONSUMER PROTECTION ACT (TEX. BUS. & COM. CODE CH. 17) OR OTHER APPLICABLE LAW.

18.  Indemnification

 

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Company and its owners, members, managers, employees, and agents (the “Company Parties”) from and against any and all third-party claims, suits, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or relating to (a) your breach of this Agreement, (b) your misuse of the Site, (c) your violation of any law or the rights of any third party, or (d) your resale, further distribution, or service of the Products to others in violation of this Agreement or applicable law.

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary to fulfill the purposes described in this Privacy Policy, to comply with our legal obligations, and to resolve disputes and enforce our agreements. We use reasonable administrative, technical, and physical safeguards designed to protect your information.

You and Company agree that each may bring claims against the other only in your or its individual capacity, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, or representative proceeding.
