3. Scope and Applicability

3.1 These Customer Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) apply to all use of the Belldrop Platform by Customers and to all Orders placed through Belldrop.

3.2 By placing an Order, scanning a Belldrop QR code, or otherwise using the Belldrop Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

3.3 Deviating general terms and conditions of the Customer are not recognised unless Belldrop expressly agrees in writing.

3.4 The Customer must be at least 18 years of age to use the Belldrop Platform and place Orders.

3.5 Belldrop may update these Terms from time to time. Changes will be published on the Belldrop Platform. Continued use of the Belldrop Platform after publication constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. Material changes will be communicated in advance where reasonably possible.

4. Role of Belldrop — Platform Operator and Intermediary

4.1 Belldrop operates a digital platform that enables Customers to discover, order and receive food and beverages from Restaurant Partners, with delivery to Hotels and other designated locations.

4.2 Belldrop acts as a commercial intermediary and collection agent on behalf of the Restaurant Partner. Belldrop does not itself sell, manufacture, prepare or supply the food and beverages listed on the platform. The Restaurant Partner is and remains the seller of the food and beverages.

4.3 By placing an Order, the Customer concludes a Food Agreement directly with the relevant Restaurant Partner for the food and beverages. Belldrop facilitates the conclusion and performance of that Food Agreement but is not a party to it.

4.4 In addition to the Food Agreement, the Customer enters into a separate agreement with Belldrop for the Belldrop Service, which includes use of the platform, order routing, coordination and, where applicable, delivery facilitation. The consideration for the Belldrop Service is the Belldrop Fee and, where applicable, the Delivery Fee.

4.5 The presentation of Restaurant Partners, menus and products on the Belldrop Platform is based on information supplied by the Restaurant Partner. Belldrop does not independently verify the accuracy, completeness or legality of such information and is not responsible for it.

5. Ordering Process and Contract Formation

5.1 The display of Restaurant Partner menus and products on the Belldrop Platform does not constitute a binding offer. It is an invitation to the Customer to place an Order.

5.2 By completing the checkout process and confirming the Order, the Customer makes a binding offer to the Restaurant Partner (for the food and beverages) and to Belldrop (for the Belldrop Service).

5.3 The Food Agreement between the Customer and the Restaurant Partner is concluded when the Restaurant Partner accepts the Order. Acceptance is communicated through the Belldrop Platform, typically by an order confirmation.

5.4 Belldrop will send or display an order confirmation summarising the Order. This confirmation is for informational purposes and confirms receipt. The Food Agreement is formed upon the Restaurant Partner’s acceptance.

5.5 The Restaurant Partner reserves the right to reject an Order, for example if items are unavailable, if there is doubt about the authenticity of the Order, or in cases of force majeure. Belldrop is also entitled to refuse Orders on operational or integrity grounds.

5.6 The Customer is responsible for ensuring that all information provided during the ordering process, including contact details, Hotel name, room number and any delivery instructions, is accurate and complete.

6. Prices and Checkout Transparency

6.1 The checkout flow will display the following components separately before the Customer confirms the Order:

•       Food and beverages sold by the Restaurant Partner (including applicable VAT)

•       Belldrop Fee (Belldrop’s own service fee)

•       Delivery Fee, where applicable

•       Rider Tip, where applicable (voluntary)

•       Total amount payable

6.2 All prices for food and beverages are set by the Restaurant Partner and include the legally applicable value-added tax (VAT).

6.3 The Belldrop Fee and Delivery Fee are set by Belldrop and include applicable VAT. These fees are Belldrop’s own charges for its services.

6.4 Deposits (Pfand), minimum order surcharges or other charges will be displayed separately in the checkout flow where applicable.

6.5 The Customer should review all price components carefully before confirming the Order.

7. Payment

7.1 The Customer’s payment obligation arises upon confirmation of the Order.

7.2 The Customer pays the total amount (food, Belldrop Fee, Delivery Fee and Rider Tip, if applicable) through the payment methods available in the Belldrop Platform.

7.3 Belldrop is authorised by the Restaurant Partner to collect payment for the food and beverages on behalf of the Restaurant Partner. Payment by the Customer to Belldrop (or to the payment service provider used by Belldrop) for the food and beverages component has full discharging effect (Erfüllungswirkung) towards the Restaurant Partner. This means that once the Customer has paid, the Customer’s payment obligation towards the Restaurant Partner for the food is fulfilled.

7.4 Payment for the Belldrop Fee and Delivery Fee is made directly to Belldrop as consideration for Belldrop’s own services.

7.5 Payment processing is facilitated through Storekit and/or other payment service providers integrated into the Belldrop Platform. The Customer acknowledges that third-party payment terms may apply to the payment transaction. Belldrop is not responsible for payment failures caused by third-party payment infrastructure.

7.6 If a payment method fails or is declined, the Order may not be processed. The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the selected payment method is valid and sufficiently funded.

8. Rider Tip

8.1 The Customer may, at their sole discretion, add a voluntary Rider Tip during the checkout process. The Rider Tip is intended exclusively for the rider or courier delivering the Order.

8.2 The Rider Tip is not payment for Belldrop’s services. Belldrop acts solely as a pass-through for the Rider Tip and will ensure the tip amount reaches the delivering rider.

8.3 Once an Order has been confirmed, the Rider Tip is non-refundable and cannot be cancelled or returned.

9. Delivery and Hotel Handover

9.1 Belldrop facilitates delivery of the Order to the designated Handover Point at or within the Hotel. Delivery may be carried out by Belldrop’s own riders, contracted couriers or logistics partners.

9.2 The Customer must ensure they are reachable and available to receive the Order at or near the Handover Point. If the Customer is not reachable, Belldrop may deliver the Order to the hotel lobby, reception or other reasonable handover location.

9.3 Where a room number is requested and provided, Belldrop may share limited information (customer name, order reference, room number) with hotel reception staff for the purpose of facilitating handover.

9.4 Once the Order has been handed over at the designated Handover Point or left at reception, the delivery is deemed complete. Belldrop is not responsible for the Order after handover, including for quality deterioration resulting from the Customer’s failure to collect or receive the Order in a timely manner.

9.5 Estimated delivery times shown on the Belldrop Platform are non-binding estimates. Actual delivery times may vary due to preparation, traffic, weather or other operational factors.

10. Cancellation

10.1 After the Order has been confirmed and the Restaurant Partner has accepted it, the Order generally cannot be cancelled by the Customer. This is because the Restaurant Partner typically begins food preparation immediately upon acceptance.

10.2 The Restaurant Partner or Belldrop may cancel an Order if: (a) the ordered items are no longer available; (b) the Customer’s contact information is incorrect or inoperable; (c) there is reasonable doubt about the authenticity or legitimacy of the Order; or (d) in cases of force majeure.

10.3 If Belldrop or the Restaurant Partner cancels an Order that has already been paid for, the Customer will receive a refund in accordance with Section 12.

11. Right of Withdrawal (Widerrufsrecht)

11.1 If the Customer is a consumer within the meaning of Section 13 BGB, the Customer may in principle have a statutory right of withdrawal from distance contracts under Section 355 BGB.

11.2 However, this right of withdrawal does not apply to the supply of goods that can spoil quickly or that would quickly exceed their expiry date (Section 312g(2) No. 2 BGB). Since food and beverages ordered through Belldrop are typically perishable, the right of withdrawal is excluded for the food and beverages component of most Orders. The same applies where the goods are sealed for hygiene reasons and the seal has been removed after delivery, or where the goods have been inseparably mixed after delivery.

11.3 For the Belldrop Service component (platform and delivery facilitation), the right of withdrawal is excluded once the service has been fully provided, provided the Customer was informed and consented before performance began.

11.4 In practice, this means that for the vast majority of food and beverage Orders placed through Belldrop, no right of withdrawal applies. To the extent a right of withdrawal does apply to any part of an Order, the statutory provisions of Sections 355 ff. BGB apply. The Customer may exercise such right by sending a clear statement to Belldrop (Pellegrino DE UG (haftungsbeschränkt), Kaiserstraße 39, 63065 Offenbach am Main, Germany; Email: contact@belldrop.de) within fourteen days of receiving the goods. A model withdrawal form is available upon request.

12. Refunds

12.1 If the Customer has a justified complaint (for example, missing items, significantly incorrect order, or quality issues attributable to the Restaurant Partner or the delivery process), the Customer should contact Belldrop customer support promptly at contact@belldrop.de.

12.2 Subject to investigation, Belldrop will issue a refund to the Customer’s original payment method for justified complaints.

12.3 Belldrop may issue a full refund, a partial refund for specific items, or a refund of a specific amount (for example, the delivery fee only). Each Order may only be refunded once.

12.4 Refunds are processed immediately by Belldrop through Storekit. Depending on the Customer’s bank or payment provider, it may take 3 to 5 business days for the refund to appear in the Customer’s account.

12.5 The allocation of refund responsibility between the Restaurant Partner and Belldrop is governed by the Belldrop Restaurant Partner Agreement and is not the Customer’s concern. From the Customer’s perspective, Belldrop is the single point of contact for complaints and refund requests.

13. Complaints

13.1 Complaints regarding the food, order accuracy or quality should be directed to Belldrop at contact@belldrop.de, which will coordinate with the Restaurant Partner as necessary. Belldrop acts as the central point of contact for all order-related issues.

13.2 Complaints should be submitted promptly and include sufficient detail (order reference, description of the issue, photos where applicable).

13.3 Belldrop will acknowledge receipt of a complaint as soon as possible and aims to resolve complaints within a reasonable timeframe.

14. Allergens and Product Information

14.1 Product descriptions, ingredients and allergen information are provided by the Restaurant Partner. Belldrop publishes this information on behalf of the Restaurant Partner and does not independently verify its accuracy or completeness.

14.2 If the Customer has food allergies, intolerances or other dietary restrictions, the Customer is strongly advised to contact the Restaurant Partner directly before placing an Order.

14.3 Belldrop shall not be liable for any harm resulting from inaccurate or incomplete product or allergen information provided by the Restaurant Partner.

15. Limitation of Liability

15.1 Belldrop shall be liable without limitation in accordance with statutory provisions for damages caused intentionally or through gross negligence, as well as for damages arising from injury to life, body or health, and under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz).

15.2 In cases of simple negligence, Belldrop shall only be liable for breach of a material contractual obligation (Kardinalspflicht), the fulfilment of which is essential for the proper performance of the contract and on the observance of which the Customer may regularly rely. In such cases, liability is limited to the foreseeable and typically occurring damage. In all other cases of simple negligence, Belldrop’s liability is excluded.

15.3 The limitations in Section 15.2 also apply to the liability of Belldrop’s employees, agents and vicarious agents (Erfüllungsgehilfen).

15.4 Belldrop is not liable for: (a) the quality, safety, legality or accuracy of the food, beverages or product information provided by the Restaurant Partner; (b) the performance of the Food Agreement between the Customer and the Restaurant Partner; (c) delays or disruptions caused by force majeure, including pandemics, strikes, natural disasters or breakdown of communication networks; or (d) acts or omissions of the Hotel or its staff.

15.5 The Restaurant Partner is solely responsible for the preparation, quality and safety of the food and beverages, including compliance with food safety regulations, allergen labelling and hygiene standards.

15.6 Belldrop does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability of the Belldrop Platform. Belldrop may perform scheduled or unscheduled maintenance and may restrict availability at any time.

16. User Conduct and Prohibited Activities

16.1 The Customer shall use the Belldrop Platform only for its intended purpose of ordering food and beverages for personal consumption.

16.2 The following activities are prohibited:

•       Abusing refund or promotional mechanisms

•       Interfering with the Belldrop Platform, including through automated scraping, bots or reverse engineering

•       Reselling items ordered through Belldrop

•       Any use that violates applicable law

16.3 Belldrop reserves the right to refuse, suspend or block access to the Belldrop Platform for Customers who engage in prohibited activities, abuse the platform or cause harm to Belldrop, Restaurant Partners, riders or other users.

17. Intellectual Property

17.1 All intellectual property rights in the Belldrop Platform, including trademarks, logos, software, design and content, belong to Pellegrino DE UG (haftungsbeschränkt) or its licensors.

17.2 The Customer is granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use the Belldrop Platform for its intended purpose in accordance with these Terms.

17.3 No rights in the intellectual property of Belldrop are granted to the Customer except as expressly provided in these Terms.

18. Data Protection

18.1 Belldrop processes the Customer’s personal data in accordance with its Privacy Notice, which is available on the Belldrop Platform. For privacy-related enquiries, please contact privacy@belldrop.de.

18.2 By using the Belldrop Platform, the Customer acknowledges having read the Privacy Notice.

19. Third-Party Services and Ordering Infrastructure

19.1 The Belldrop Platform uses third-party technology and services, including Storekit (ordering and payment infrastructure), Shipday (delivery management), Intercom (customer support), and other providers for parts of the ordering, checkout, delivery and communication flow.

19.2 Where parts of the ordering or payment flow are provided by third parties, additional third-party terms may apply to those specific services. Such third-party terms apply only to the extent they govern the relevant third-party service and do not alter the contractual roles described in these Terms (in particular, the Restaurant Partner remains the seller of food, and Belldrop remains the platform operator and collection agent).

19.3 Belldrop is not responsible for failures, interruptions or limitations of third-party services.

20. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

20.1 These Terms and all agreements concluded through the Belldrop Platform shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG).

20.2 If the Customer is a merchant (Kaufmann), a legal entity under public law or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction for all disputes arising from or in connection with these Terms shall be Offenbach am Main, Germany.

20.3 Mandatory consumer protection provisions of the country in which the Customer has their habitual residence remain unaffected.

20.4 The European Online Dispute Resolution platform has been discontinued. Belldrop is not obliged and does not agree to participate in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board, unless required by mandatory law.

21. Severability

21.1 If any provision of these Terms is or becomes invalid, unenforceable or void, this shall not affect the validity of the remaining provisions. The invalid provision shall be replaced by a valid provision that comes closest to the economic purpose of the invalid provision.

22. Assignment

22.1 Belldrop may assign its rights or obligations under these Terms, in whole or in part, to an affiliate, successor or acquirer of its business without the Customer’s prior consent.

15.2 In cases of simple negligence, Belldrop shall only be liable for breach of a material contractual obligation (Kardinalspflicht), the fulfilment of which is essential for the proper performance of the contract and on the observance of which the Customer may regularly rely. In such cases, liability is limited to the foreseeable and typically occurring damage. In all other cases of simple negligence, Belldrop’s liability is excluded.

15.3 The limitations in Section 15.2 also apply to the liability of Belldrop’s employees, agents and vicarious agents (Erfüllungsgehilfen).

15.4 Belldrop is not liable for: (a) the quality, safety, legality or accuracy of the food, beverages or product information provided by the Restaurant Partner; (b) the performance of the Food Agreement between the Customer and the Restaurant Partner; (c) delays or disruptions caused by force majeure, including pandemics, strikes, natural disasters or breakdown of communication networks; or (d) acts or omissions of the Hotel or its staff.

15.5 The Restaurant Partner is solely responsible for the preparation, quality and safety of the food and beverages, including compliance with food safety regulations, allergen labelling and hygiene standards.

15.6 Belldrop does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability of the Belldrop Platform. Belldrop may perform scheduled or unscheduled maintenance and may restrict availability at any time.

16. User Conduct and Prohibited Activities

•       Interfering with the Belldrop Platform, including through automated scraping, bots or reverse engineering

•       Reselling items ordered through Belldrop

•       Any use that violates applicable law

16.3 Belldrop reserves the right to refuse, suspend or block access to the Belldrop Platform for Customers who engage in prohibited activities, abuse the platform or cause harm to Belldrop, Restaurant Partners, riders or other users.

17.2 The Customer is granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use the Belldrop Platform for its intended purpose in accordance with these Terms.

19. Third-Party Services and Ordering Infrastructure

19.1 The Belldrop Platform uses third-party technology and services, including Storekit (ordering and payment infrastructure), Shipday (delivery management), Intercom (customer support), and other providers for parts of the ordering, checkout, delivery and communication flow.

19.2 Where parts of the ordering or payment flow are provided by third parties, additional third-party terms may apply to those specific services. Such third-party terms apply only to the extent they govern the relevant third-party service and do not alter the contractual roles described in these Terms (in particular, the Restaurant Partner remains the seller of food, and Belldrop remains the platform operator and collection agent).

19.3 Belldrop is not responsible for failures, interruptions or limitations of third-party services.

20. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

2. Definitions

“Customer” or “You” means any natural person who has reached the age of 18 or any legal entity placing an Order through Belldrop.

3. Scope and Applicability

3.1 These Customer Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) apply to all use of the Belldrop Platform by Customers and to all Orders placed through Belldrop.

3.2 By placing an Order, scanning a Belldrop QR code, or otherwise using the Belldrop Platform, you agree to be bound by these Terms.

3.3 Deviating general terms and conditions of the Customer are not recognised unless Belldrop expressly agrees in writing.

3.4 The Customer must be at least 18 years of age to use the Belldrop Platform and place Orders.

3.5 Belldrop may update these Terms from time to time. Changes will be published on the Belldrop Platform. Continued use of the Belldrop Platform after publication constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms. Material changes will be communicated in advance where reasonably possible.

4. Role of Belldrop — Platform Operator and Intermediary

4.1 Belldrop operates a digital platform that enables Customers to discover, order and receive food and beverages from Restaurant Partners, with delivery to Hotels and other designated locations.

4.2 Belldrop acts as a commercial intermediary and collection agent on behalf of the Restaurant Partner. Belldrop does not itself sell, manufacture, prepare or supply the food and beverages listed on the platform. The Restaurant Partner is and remains the seller of the food and beverages.

4.3 By placing an Order, the Customer concludes a Food Agreement directly with the relevant Restaurant Partner for the food and beverages. Belldrop facilitates the conclusion and performance of that Food Agreement but is not a party to it.

4.4 In addition to the Food Agreement, the Customer enters into a separate agreement with Belldrop for the Belldrop Service, which includes use of the platform, order routing, coordination and, where applicable, delivery facilitation. The consideration for the Belldrop Service is the Belldrop Fee and, where applicable, the Delivery Fee.

4.5 The presentation of Restaurant Partners, menus and products on the Belldrop Platform is based on information supplied by the Restaurant Partner. Belldrop does not independently verify the accuracy, completeness or legality of such information and is not responsible for it.

5. Ordering Process and Contract Formation

5.1 The display of Restaurant Partner menus and products on the Belldrop Platform does not constitute a binding offer. It is an invitation to the Customer to place an Order.

5.2 By completing the checkout process and confirming the Order, the Customer makes a binding offer to the Restaurant Partner (for the food and beverages) and to Belldrop (for the Belldrop Service).

5.3 The Food Agreement between the Customer and the Restaurant Partner is concluded when the Restaurant Partner accepts the Order. Acceptance is communicated through the Belldrop Platform, typically by an order confirmation.

5.4 Belldrop will send or display an order confirmation summarising the Order. This confirmation is for informational purposes and confirms receipt. The Food Agreement is formed upon the Restaurant Partner’s acceptance.

5.5 The Restaurant Partner reserves the right to reject an Order, for example if items are unavailable, if there is doubt about the authenticity of the Order, or in cases of force majeure. Belldrop is also entitled to refuse Orders on operational or integrity grounds.

5.6 The Customer is responsible for ensuring that all information provided during the ordering process, including contact details, Hotel name, room number and any delivery instructions, is accurate and complete.

6. Prices and Checkout Transparency

6.1 The checkout flow will display the following components separately before the Customer confirms the Order:

•       Food and beverages sold by the Restaurant Partner (including applicable VAT)

•       Belldrop Fee (Belldrop’s own service fee)

•       Delivery Fee, where applicable

•       Rider Tip, where applicable (voluntary)

•       Total amount payable

6.2 All prices for food and beverages are set by the Restaurant Partner and include the legally applicable value-added tax (VAT).

6.3 The Belldrop Fee and Delivery Fee are set by Belldrop and include applicable VAT. These fees are Belldrop’s own charges for its services.

6.4 Deposits (Pfand), minimum order surcharges or other charges will be displayed separately in the checkout flow where applicable.

6.5 The Customer should review all price components carefully before confirming the Order.

7. Payment

7.1 The Customer’s payment obligation arises upon confirmation of the Order.

7.2 The Customer pays the total amount (food, Belldrop Fee, Delivery Fee and Rider Tip, if applicable) through the payment methods available in the Belldrop Platform.

7.3 Belldrop is authorised by the Restaurant Partner to collect payment for the food and beverages on behalf of the Restaurant Partner. Payment by the Customer to Belldrop (or to the payment service provider used by Belldrop) for the food and beverages component has full discharging effect (Erfüllungswirkung) towards the Restaurant Partner. This means that once the Customer has paid, the Customer’s payment obligation towards the Restaurant Partner for the food is fulfilled.

7.4 Payment for the Belldrop Fee and Delivery Fee is made directly to Belldrop as consideration for Belldrop’s own services.

7.5 Payment processing is facilitated through Storekit and/or other payment service providers integrated into the Belldrop Platform. The Customer acknowledges that third-party payment terms may apply to the payment transaction. Belldrop is not responsible for payment failures caused by third-party payment infrastructure.

7.6 If a payment method fails or is declined, the Order may not be processed. The Customer is responsible for ensuring that the selected payment method is valid and sufficiently funded.

8. Rider Tip

8.1 The Customer may, at their sole discretion, add a voluntary Rider Tip during the checkout process. The Rider Tip is intended exclusively for the rider or courier delivering the Order.

8.2 The Rider Tip is not payment for Belldrop’s services. Belldrop acts solely as a pass-through for the Rider Tip and will ensure the tip amount reaches the delivering rider.

8.3 Once an Order has been confirmed, the Rider Tip is non-refundable and cannot be cancelled or returned.

9. Delivery and Hotel Handover

9.1 Belldrop facilitates delivery of the Order to the designated Handover Point at or within the Hotel. Delivery may be carried out by Belldrop’s own riders, contracted couriers or logistics partners.

9.2 The Customer must ensure they are reachable and available to receive the Order at or near the Handover Point. If the Customer is not reachable, Belldrop may deliver the Order to the hotel lobby, reception or other reasonable handover location.

9.3 Where a room number is requested and provided, Belldrop may share limited information (customer name, order reference, room number) with hotel reception staff for the purpose of facilitating handover.

9.4 Once the Order has been handed over at the designated Handover Point or left at reception, the delivery is deemed complete. Belldrop is not responsible for the Order after handover, including for quality deterioration resulting from the Customer’s failure to collect or receive the Order in a timely manner.

9.5 Estimated delivery times shown on the Belldrop Platform are non-binding estimates. Actual delivery times may vary due to preparation, traffic, weather or other operational factors.

10. Cancellation

10.1 After the Order has been confirmed and the Restaurant Partner has accepted it, the Order generally cannot be cancelled by the Customer. This is because the Restaurant Partner typically begins food preparation immediately upon acceptance.

10.2 The Restaurant Partner or Belldrop may cancel an Order if: (a) the ordered items are no longer available; (b) the Customer’s contact information is incorrect or inoperable; (c) there is reasonable doubt about the authenticity or legitimacy of the Order; or (d) in cases of force majeure.

10.3 If Belldrop or the Restaurant Partner cancels an Order that has already been paid for, the Customer will receive a refund in accordance with Section 12.

11. Right of Withdrawal (Widerrufsrecht)

11.1 If the Customer is a consumer within the meaning of Section 13 BGB, the Customer may in principle have a statutory right of withdrawal from distance contracts under Section 355 BGB.

11.2 However, this right of withdrawal does not apply to the supply of goods that can spoil quickly or that would quickly exceed their expiry date (Section 312g(2) No. 2 BGB). Since food and beverages ordered through Belldrop are typically perishable, the right of withdrawal is excluded for the food and beverages component of most Orders. The same applies where the goods are sealed for hygiene reasons and the seal has been removed after delivery, or where the goods have been inseparably mixed after delivery.

11.3 For the Belldrop Service component (platform and delivery facilitation), the right of withdrawal is excluded once the service has been fully provided, provided the Customer was informed and consented before performance began.

11.4 In practice, this means that for the vast majority of food and beverage Orders placed through Belldrop, no right of withdrawal applies. To the extent a right of withdrawal does apply to any part of an Order, the statutory provisions of Sections 355 ff. BGB apply. The Customer may exercise such right by sending a clear statement to Belldrop (Pellegrino DE UG (haftungsbeschränkt), Kaiserstraße 39, 63065 Offenbach am Main, Germany; Email: contact@belldrop.de) within fourteen days of receiving the goods. A model withdrawal form is available upon request.

12. Refunds

12.1 If the Customer has a justified complaint (for example, missing items, significantly incorrect order, or quality issues attributable to the Restaurant Partner or the delivery process), the Customer should contact Belldrop customer support promptly at contact@belldrop.de.

12.2 Subject to investigation, Belldrop will issue a refund to the Customer’s original payment method for justified complaints.

12.3 Belldrop may issue a full refund, a partial refund for specific items, or a refund of a specific amount (for example, the delivery fee only). Each Order may only be refunded once.

12.4 Refunds are processed immediately by Belldrop through Storekit. Depending on the Customer’s bank or payment provider, it may take 3 to 5 business days for the refund to appear in the Customer’s account.

12.5 The allocation of refund responsibility between the Restaurant Partner and Belldrop is governed by the Belldrop Restaurant Partner Agreement and is not the Customer’s concern. From the Customer’s perspective, Belldrop is the single point of contact for complaints and refund requests.

13. Complaints

13.1 Complaints regarding the food, order accuracy or quality should be directed to Belldrop at contact@belldrop.de, which will coordinate with the Restaurant Partner as necessary. Belldrop acts as the central point of contact for all order-related issues.

13.2 Complaints should be submitted promptly and include sufficient detail (order reference, description of the issue, photos where applicable).

13.3 Belldrop will acknowledge receipt of a complaint as soon as possible and aims to resolve complaints within a reasonable timeframe.

14. Allergens and Product Information

14.1 Product descriptions, ingredients and allergen information are provided by the Restaurant Partner. Belldrop publishes this information on behalf of the Restaurant Partner and does not independently verify its accuracy or completeness.

14.2 If the Customer has food allergies, intolerances or other dietary restrictions, the Customer is strongly advised to contact the Restaurant Partner directly before placing an Order.

14.3 Belldrop shall not be liable for any harm resulting from inaccurate or incomplete product or allergen information provided by the Restaurant Partner.

15. Limitation of Liability

15.1 Belldrop shall be liable without limitation in accordance with statutory provisions for damages caused intentionally or through gross negligence, as well as for damages arising from injury to life, body or health, and under the German Product Liability Act (Produkthaftungsgesetz).

15.2 In cases of simple negligence, Belldrop shall only be liable for breach of a material contractual obligation (Kardinalspflicht), the fulfilment of which is essential for the proper performance of the contract and on the observance of which the Customer may regularly rely. In such cases, liability is limited to the foreseeable and typically occurring damage. In all other cases of simple negligence, Belldrop’s liability is excluded.

15.3 The limitations in Section 15.2 also apply to the liability of Belldrop’s employees, agents and vicarious agents (Erfüllungsgehilfen).

15.4 Belldrop is not liable for: (a) the quality, safety, legality or accuracy of the food, beverages or product information provided by the Restaurant Partner; (b) the performance of the Food Agreement between the Customer and the Restaurant Partner; (c) delays or disruptions caused by force majeure, including pandemics, strikes, natural disasters or breakdown of communication networks; or (d) acts or omissions of the Hotel or its staff.

15.5 The Restaurant Partner is solely responsible for the preparation, quality and safety of the food and beverages, including compliance with food safety regulations, allergen labelling and hygiene standards.

15.6 Belldrop does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability of the Belldrop Platform. Belldrop may perform scheduled or unscheduled maintenance and may restrict availability at any time.

These currently include: Storekit (ordering and payment infrastructure); Framer (website hosting); Shipday (delivery management and rider coordination); Intercom (customer support and communications); and Google Analytics (website analytics and usage measurement).

F. Professional advisers and authorities

We may disclose personal data to lawyers, accountants, auditors, insurers, tax advisers, regulators, courts or law enforcement authorities where legally required or reasonably necessary.

7. Ordering Infrastructure and Third-Party Terms

Belldrop uses third-party ordering technology and services, including Storekit, to enable the digital ordering flow. Where parts of the ordering, payment or technical checkout flow are provided by third parties, additional third-party terms and privacy notices may apply.

Legal basis: Article 6(1)(b) GDPR.

We may process personal data where required to establish, exercise or defend legal claims, cooperate with authorities, or comply with legal obligations. Legal basis: Article 6(1)(c) and/or Article 6(1)(f) GDPR.

5. Source of Personal Data

We collect personal data directly from you when you use our site, scan a QR code, place an order or contact us; from Restaurant Partners in connection with your order; from riders, couriers and logistics partners (including Shipday) involved in fulfilment; from payment service providers (including Storekit) in connection with payment status and fraud checks; from hotel-related operational interactions where necessary for handover; and from our technology providers.

6. Recipients of Personal Data

A. Restaurant Partners

We share data required to prepare and fulfil your Order, including item details, customer details relevant to the order and operational notes. The Restaurant Partner receives data in its capacity as the seller of the food and beverages.

B. Riders, couriers and logistics providers

We share data necessary to pick up, transport and hand over the Order. This includes our delivery management provider Shipday.

C. Hotels or reception staff

Where necessary for delivery or reception/lobby handover, we may share limited information such as the customer name, hotel identifier, room number (where applicable), order reference and handover instructions.

D. Payment service providers

We share payment-related data with our payment partners and processors (including Storekit) to enable payment authorisation, fraud screening, refund handling and transaction reconciliation.

E. Technology and platform service providers

Belldrop uses third-party service providers for various technical and operational functions. These currently include: Storekit (ordering and payment infrastructure); Framer (website hosting); Shipday (delivery management and rider coordination); Intercom (customer support and communications); and Google Analytics (website analytics and usage measurement). These providers act as processors and/or as independent service providers depending on their specific function. This is standard practice for any digital platform and required to operate the service.

F. Professional advisers and authorities

We may disclose personal data to lawyers, accountants, auditors, insurers, tax advisers, regulators, courts or law enforcement authorities where legally required or reasonably necessary. This is a standard legal obligation under German law and the GDPR — every business operating in Germany must be able to cooperate with regulatory and tax authorities when required.

7. Ordering Infrastructure and Third-Party Terms

Belldrop uses third-party ordering technology and services, including Storekit, to enable the digital ordering flow. Where parts of the ordering, payment or technical checkout flow are provided by third parties, additional third-party terms and privacy notices may apply. Such third-party terms do not alter the contractual relationships described in Belldrop’s Customer Terms and Conditions (the Restaurant Partner remains the seller of food, and Belldrop remains the platform operator and collection agent).

8. Cookies, Analytics and Similar Technologies

We use cookies and similar technologies as described in the Cookie Policy below. Where required by law, non-essential cookies and similar technologies are only used after obtaining your consent.

9. International Data Transfers

If we use service providers located outside the European Economic Area (EEA), or if data is accessed from outside the EEA, we will ensure appropriate safeguards are in place as required by Articles 44 et seq. GDPR, including where relevant an adequacy decision or Standard Contractual Clauses (SCCs) with supplementary measures. You may request further information by contacting privacy@belldrop.de.

10. Data Retention

We retain personal data only for as long as necessary for the purposes described in this Privacy Notice, unless a longer retention period is required or permitted by law. Order and transaction records may be retained for contractual handling, support and statutory tax/accounting obligations; invoice and accounting records may be retained for statutory retention periods under German law (typically six to ten years); support and complaint documentation may be retained for the period necessary to manage disputes and legal claims; fraud-prevention records may be retained for as long as reasonably necessary; and marketing data is retained until you withdraw consent or object.

Where data is no longer required, we will delete or anonymise it, unless further retention is legally required.

11. Your Rights Under GDPR

Subject to the legal requirements, you have the following rights: the right of access (Article 15 GDPR); the right to rectification (Article 16 GDPR); the right to erasure (Article 17 GDPR); the right to restriction of processing (Article 18 GDPR); the right to data portability (Article 20 GDPR); the right to object to processing based on legitimate interests (Article 21 GDPR); the right to withdraw consent at any time, without affecting the lawfulness of processing carried out before withdrawal; and the right to lodge a complaint with a supervisory authority.
