LAST UPDATED: FEBRUARY 24, 2024
This Universal Acceptable Use Policy contains general terms and conditions (the “Terms”) that govern your use of our products (e.g. COOKIES, marketing materials) and services (e.g. the website https://www.eatpucks.com/, and content we or consumers post on our social media channels, etc.) (collectively, the “Goods”).
Pucks Cookies & Treats (Pucks) is an exciting new hockey themed cookies wholesaler headquartered in the heart of Las Vegas, NV, offering a slapshot of happiness to the face.
Founded by Jenny Lynne and Mark Edington in February 2022, shortly after the Vegas Golden Knights fought their way to Stanley Cup, Pucks continues to offer a variety of delicious treats and desserts, including the signature Hockey Puck shaped cookies that come in a full flavor spectrum ranging from classic sugar cookies to our cookie monster and everything in between.
Not only does Pucks offer delicious treats that are sure to please any hockey fan, but we also have a commitment to quality and customer service. We ensure that all of our products are made with the highest standards in mind so that customers can be sure they're getting only the best. We also have an environmentally friendly policy, using biodegradable materials whenever possible for packaging and containers. In addition, we participate in various local initiatives and charities, helping to give back to the community while spreading a little hockey love. To help you enjoy our Goods, the following Terms apply. By engaging with, touching, sampling, tasting, salivating over, liking, clicking, savoring, or in any way consuming or using our Goods (each activity being “Use”) you acknowledge, covenant, and agree to be bound by the then applicable, future-version of these Terms, that may be modified from time to time by Pucks, even after you stop Using our Goods.
To meet the dynamic regulatory landscape that may or may not affect any of the Goods, and protect us and you, you agree and we reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time, effective upon posting of the modified Terms to the following URL: (www.eatpucks.com). In any event, we may revise or modify these Terms, any offering of Goods, or any content on any of our Goods, at any time without notice, but we will notify you of the change on the Terms by adjusting the date referenced above. Again, by Using any one of the Goods, you are agreeing to be bound by the then applicable, future-version of these Terms, including at the time you may bring a claim against us or raise a dispute between us. These Terms also govern your use of our social media channels, including Discord, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, and Instagram, etc. All visitors to one of the Goods, including those seeking or receiving experiences on one of the Goods, regardless of whether such users are transacting business, by using the Goods agree to follow these Terms. These Terms govern and control over all agreements entered between us and anyone else and are incorporated by reference into any contract signed between us and you or operated under between us and you as a user, a vendor, a brand, or a customer.
