Accessibility of Our Sites

SITES, STORES & SERVICES INTENDED FOR PERSONS AGED 21 OR OLDER ONLY

We make every effort to ensure that alcoholic beverages are not sold or delivered to anyone who is under the age of 21. By using this site, you represent that you are over the age of 21.

You also agree that any alcohol purchased from us is intended for personal consumption and not for resale.

Your representations are critical to your right to use the Sites. If you intentionally or unintentionally misrepresent your age in order to obtain or provide alcohol to a person under the age of 21, we may take action to prevent you from accessing the Sites and report your misrepresentation to the appropriate authorities.

We may, at our own discretion, limit or cancel quantities purchased per person, per household or per order. We also reserve the right to reject any order you place with us.

In the event we make a change to an order, we will attempt to notify you by contacting the e-mail and/or billing address provided at the time the order was made.

TITLE AND OWNERSHIP OF PRODUCT

Title to, and ownership of, all alcoholic beverages and other products sold through the Sites passes to you upon purchase from The Wine Bin.  Once a sale is been approved, there are essentially there ways to receive your purchase: (i) in-Store pickup (or “ISP”), where one of our Store team members will pick your order and have it waiting for you to pick up at your convenience; (ii) delivery, where available, which means that a Store team member will pick your order and either the Store or a third-party delivery vendor will deliver your order to your home or other authorized location within the selected Store’s designated service territory; or (iii) shipping, either intrastate or interstate (where permitted), which means that a common carrier will deliver your order as specified by you. You will be charged any applicable taxes for such sales.

IN-STORE PICKUP (ISP)

The Wine Bin retail store permits in-Store pickup. Once confirmed, all orders are subject to product availability and will be available for pickup at the Store you designated in your order according to our pickup policies. We will use the email address provided with the order to contact you when your order is ready for pickup. Some states require the person who placed the order to pick-up the order; other states allow someone else to pick up the order on your behalf. Check with your ISP Store to determine what rules apply. Any person picking up an order in-Store must be aged 21 or older and must present a valid government-issued identification.

If you have not picked up your order within 14 days of placing it, we will attempt to notify you by contacting you with the information provided at the time the order was made. We reserve the right to cancel the order, return the products or other goods, and issue a credit to the credit card used to place the order in the amount of the charge corresponding to the intended purchase. Individual bank policies will dictate when this amount is credited to your account. 

DELIVERY

Delivery to your home, office or event location is available in some locations, depending on state law. Where permitted, you (or, where allowed, your designee) must be aged 21 or older and must present a valid government-issued identification in order to obtain your shipment. All delivery orders are subject to product availability and delivery locations, quantities and frequency may be restricted by law or The Wine Bin discretion. Delivery fees may apply.

 SHIPPING

We make no representations about the legality of shipping alcoholic beverages.

As with in-Store pickup and delivery, you (or, where allowed, your designee) must be aged 21 or older and must present a valid government-issued identification in order to obtain your shipment.

All orders placed on our site are subject to product availability and will be shipped according to our Shipping Policies, which may vary based on applicable state law.

WE CANNOT AND DO NOT WARRANT, PROMISE, GUARANTEE OR MAKE ANY REPRESENTATIONS REGARDING THE ACCURACY, SECURITY, RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY OR ANY USE OF THE FUNCTIONS, FEATURES, OPERATIONS, CONTENT OR INFORMATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE SITES, OR THE SITE IS FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL ELEMENTS.

EXCEPT IN JURISDICTIONS WHERE SUCH PROVISIONS ARE RESTRICTED, YOU AGREE THAT THE ENTIRE LIABILITY OF THE WINE BIN ENTITY TO YOU OR ANY THIRD PERSON, AND THAT YOUR OR ANY THIRD PERSON'S EXCLUSIVE REMEDY, IN LAW, IN EQUITY, OR OTHERWISE, WITH RESPECT TO THE SERVICE PROVIDED UNDER THESE TERMS OF USE AND/OR FOR ANY BREACH OF THESE TERMS IS SOLELY LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT OF FIFTY CENTS ($0.50).

Arbitration Agreement

PLEASE READ THIS PROVISION CAREFULLY. IT INCLUDES AN AGREEMENT TO MANDATORY BINDING ARBITRATION, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AGREE TO SUBMIT ANY DISPUTE RELATED TO YOUR USE OF ANY OF THE SITES TO BINDING INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN PROCEED IN COURT. THIS PROVISION ALSO INCLUDES A CLASS ACTION WAIVER, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AGREE TO PROCEED WITH ANY DISPUTE INDIVIDUALLY AND NOT AS PART OF A CLASS ACTION. THIS AGREEMENT ALSO INCLUDES A JURY WAIVER.

It is The Wine Bin’s goal that the Sites meet your expectations and that you are satisfied. However, there may be instances when you have a problem or dispute that needs special attention. In those instances, The Wine Bin is committed to working with you to reach a reasonable resolution that satisfies you; however, we can only do this if we know about and understand your issue. Therefore, for any problem or dispute that you may have with The Wine Bin, you acknowledge and agree that you will first give The Wine Bin an opportunity to resolve your problem or dispute. This includes you first sending a written description of your problem or dispute to The Wine Bin, 8390 Main Street, Ellicott City MD 21043, Attn: Legal Department, Re: Customer Dispute. You then agree to negotiate with The Wine Bin in good faith about your problem or dispute. This should lead to resolution, but if for some reason your problem or dispute is not resolved satisfactorily within sixty (60) days after The Wine Bin’s receipt of your written description of it, you agree to the further dispute resolution provisions below.

You agree that the sole and exclusive forum and remedy for any and all disputes and claims that cannot be resolved informally and that relate in any way to or arise out of your use of any of the Sites and these Terms shall be final and binding arbitration, except to the extent that you have in any manner infringed upon or violated or threatened to infringe upon or violate any of the The Wine Bin Entities' or any third party patent, copyright, trademark, trade secret, privacy or publicity rights, in which case you acknowledge that there is no adequate remedy at law and that injunctive or other appropriate relief may be sought by the The Wine Bin Entities and/or the applicable third party(ies) either in court or from an arbitrator. You and we acknowledge that the Agreement affects interstate commerce and that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law apply to arbitrations under the Agreement (despite any other choice of law provision). To the extent that the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law do not supply substantive law necessary for the resolution of any disputes or claims, the laws of the State of Maryland shall apply. To the extent that the parties litigate any part of any dispute or claim in court, including, without limitation, obtaining provisional remedies in aid of arbitration, confirmation of the award, and judgment enforcement, the laws of the State of Maryland shall apply.

Arbitration under this Agreement shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (“AAA”). The arbitration shall be administered by AAA pursuant to its Consumer Arbitration Rules. If the arbitration results in an award, then judgment on the award may be entered in any court having jurisdiction. This clause shall not preclude parties from seeking provisional remedies in aid of arbitration from a court of appropriate jurisdiction. You and any of the The Wine Bin Entities, as applicable, agree to pay our own fees, costs, and expenses, including those for any attorneys, experts, and witnesses. You agree that any claim for or award of attorneys’ fees, including such claim or award pursuant of Chapter 38 of Texas Civil Practice and Remedies Code, is waived. An arbitrator may award on an individual basis any relief. As a limited exception to the agreement to arbitrate, you and we agree that you may take claims to small claims court, if your claims qualify for hearing by such court.

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, NO ARBITRATION OR OTHER CLAIM UNDER THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE JOINED TO ANY OTHER ARBITRATION OR CLAIM, INCLUDING ANY ARBITRATION OR CLAIM INVOLVING ANY OTHER CURRENT OR FORMER VISITOR OF THE SITES, AND NO CLASS ARBITRATION PROCEEDINGS SHALL BE PERMITTED. In the event that this CLASS ACTION WAIVER is deemed unenforceable, then any putative class action may only proceed in a court of competent jurisdiction and not in arbitration.

WE BOTH AGREE THAT, WHETHER ANY CLAIM IS IN ARBITRATION OR IN COURT, YOU AND THE WINE BIN BOTH WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO A JURY TRIAL INVOLVING ANY CLAIMS OR DISPUTES BETWEEN US.

In no event shall any claim, action or proceeding by you related in any way to this Arbitration Agreement be instituted more than two (2) years after the cause of action arose.

Other

This agreement constitutes the entire agreement between us and you with respect to the subject matter contained in this agreement and supersedes all previous and contemporaneous agreements, proposals and communications, written oral. You also may be subject to additional terms and conditions that may apply when you use the products or services of a third party that are provided through the Site.

In the event of any conflict between any such third-party terms and conditions and these Terms & Conditions, these Terms & Conditions will govern.

Under no circumstances will we be held liable for any delay or failure in performance due in whole or in part to any acts of nature or other causes beyond our reasonable control.

If any provision of these Terms & Conditions is found to be unlawful or unenforceable, then that provision will be deemed severable from these Terms & Conditions and will not affect the enforceability of any other provisions.

The failure by us to enforce any right or provision of these Terms & Conditions will not prevent us from enforcing such right or provision in the future.

We may assign our rights and obligations under these Terms & Conditions, including in connection with a merger, acquisition, sale of assets or equity, or by operation of law.
