Overview

  1. Introduction

    1. The Runner RSA software application and website at www.runnerrsa.co.za (the “App“) is available for download from various app stores identified by Runner RSA from time to time, on compatible electronic devices, or accessible through the website. The App is owned and operated by Runner RSA (Proprietary) Limited (“Runner RSA“, “we“, “us” and “our“).
    2. The App enables users to order and purchase food, beverages, groceries and other items (the “Food“) from any of the restaurants, grocery stores, retail outlets, liquor stores, pharmacies or other food/snack outlets listed on the App (each a “Restaurant“).
    3. These terms and conditions (“Terms and Conditions“) govern the ordering, sale, delivery and collection of Food, and the use of the App. These Terms and Conditions are binding and enforceable against every person that accesses or uses the App (“you“, “your” or “user“), including without limitation each user who registers as contemplated below (“registered user“). By using the App, you acknowledge that you have read and agree to be bound by these Terms and Conditions. You must not use the App or Telephone Service if you do not agree to the Terms and Conditions.

      1. May limit the risk or liability of Runner RSA or a third party; and/or
      2.  May create risk or liability for the user; and/or
      3. May compel the user to indemnify Runner RSA or a third party; and/or
      4. Serve as an acknowledgement, by the user, of a fact.
    3. Your attention is drawn to these Terms and Conditions because they are important and should be carefully noted.
    4. If there is any provision in these Terms and Conditions that you do not understand, it is your responsibility to ask Runner RSA to explain it to you before you accept the Terms and Conditions by continuing to use the App.
    5. Nothing in these Terms and Conditions is intended or must be understood to unlawfully restrict, limit or avoid any right or obligation, as the case may be, created for either you or Runner RSA in terms of the CPA.
    6. These Terms and Conditions are divided into sections, as follows:
      1. Part A – Orders and Sales
      2. Part B – Retail Outlet Orders
      3. Part C – Privacy Policy
      4. Part D – General Legal Terms
    Part A – Order & Sales
  3. How it works

    1. You may order Food via the App. At the time of ordering, you are required to indicate your address, and then you will be given a selection of Restaurants. You will only be allowed to order Food from that selection of Restaurants, which fall within the prescribed area (as determined by Runner RSA from time to time) surrounding your given address.
    2. Where you have ordered using the App, you may be given the choice of receiving the Food by means of courier, which delivery service shall be carried out either (i) by Runner RSA or its nominee, or (ii) by a driver whom you mandate to deliver Food on our cloud platform (“Cloud Driver“) (items (i) and (ii) collectively referred to as the “Courier Delivery“), or by means of self-collection by you or your nominee from the relevant Restaurant (“Self-collection“). Where no choice is given for a Courier Delivery, you will be able to order Food on the App for Self-collection. 
    3. We will indicate on the relevant product and checkout pages in the App which Food items are for sale by a particular Restaurant. You can only order Food from one Restaurant at a time, in each order that you place.
    4. You can only place orders for Food from a Restaurant provided that it is open for business and active on the App. You may only place orders for liquor products during the hours permitted by law. We may at any time suspend or terminate the availability of a Restaurant, menu or menu item on the App, in our sole discretion.
    5. You acknowledge that, notwithstanding that the Food may be ordered via the App, you place such order with the relevant Restaurant. The sale of Food (formed on acceptance of an order, as set out in clause 5.2) is solely between the registered user and the relevant Restaurant. Neither Runner RSA nor any party attending to the Courier Delivery (if applicable) is a party to that sale of Food. Runner RSA only provides the platform to facilitate transactions between Restaurants and registered users in relation to the Food. Runner RSA is neither the buyer nor the seller of the Food. Any claims the registered user may have in respect of the Food shall be against the relevant Restaurant.
    6. Because we want you to have a safe and consistent experience, Runner RSA will be your first point of contact for any complaints arising out of or in connection with the sale of Food between a registered user and a Restaurant. Should such complaint escalate into being a dispute, although Runner RSA is entitled to become involved in an attempt to resolve it, Runner RSA is not obliged to do so and any disputes must be resolved between the registered user and the relevant Restaurant.
  4. Registration and use of the App

    1. Only registered users may order Food via the App.
    2. To register as a user via the App, you must provide Runner RSA with your unique email address or telephone number, personal details and any other relevant information required. You will thereafter be requested to select your own password or be issued a randomly generated password (which you may subsequently change).
    3. You will need to use your unique username and password to place an order via the App. You agree that a Runner RSA operator may call you to confirm your personal details, order information and amount owed. For security purposes you agree to enter your correct username and password whenever ordering Food via the App, failing which we will not process your order.
    4. You agree and warrant that your username and password (if applicable) shall:
      1.  not be disclosed by you to any third party.
    5. You agree that, once your correct username and password have been entered (in relation to the App), irrespective of whether the use of the username and/or password is unauthorized or fraudulent, you will be liable for payment of any resulting order.
    6. You agree to notify Runner RSA immediately upon becoming aware of or reasonably suspecting any unauthorised access to or use of your username and/or password and to take steps to minimise any resultant loss or harm.
    7. You agree that you will not in any way use any device, software or other instrument to interfere or attempt to interfere with the proper working of the App. You may use the App only for lawful purposes and may not in any way (including without limitation by use of any robot, spider, other automatic device or manual process) monitor, distribute, display, publish, copy, print, post, modify or otherwise use the App and/or the information contained therein without the express prior written consent of an authorised Runner RSA representative.
  5. Conclusion of Sales and availability of Food

    1. Registered users may place orders for Food, which the Restaurant and/or Runner RSA may accept or reject. The placing of an order will happen when payment is made by any of the acceptable payment methods in 8.3 and is confirmed on the App. Whether or not the Restaurant and/or Runner RSA accepts an order depends on various factors, including but not limited to, the availability of Food, capacity for Courier Delivery, correctness of the information relating to the Food (such as the price) and receipt of payment or payment authorisation (if applicable) by Runner RSA for the Food.
    2. NOTE: Runner RSA will indicate the acceptance of your order (by Runner RSA and the Restaurant) by way of notification on the App or email (“Acceptance Notice”), and only at that point will agreements of sale (the “Sale”) come into effect between you and:
      1.  the Restaurant in respect of the Food; and
      2.  if applicable, Runner RSA in respect of the Courier Delivery services (if you requested Courier Delivery of the Food).
    3. This is regardless of any earlier communication from the Restaurant and/or Runner RSA stating that your order or payment has been confirmed. Runner RSA will indicate the rejection of your order by cancelling it, notifying you thereof and credit your Credit Wallet, for the amount you already paid. You can then use this credit either immediately or at a later date when you place your next order with Runner RSA. Should you wish to have a refund, please refer to the FAQ section.
    4. Prior to the Food being delivered to your nominated address or you being notified that the Food is ready for collection (as applicable), we may reject an order or cancel a Sale at any time due to: (i) the Restaurant being unable to fulfil the order; (ii) Courier Delivery services not being readily available (if applicable); and/or (iii) any other reason in Runner RSA’s sole discretion.
    5. Should you wish to retract your order, you should contact Runner RSA via telephone immediately, and Runner RSA will use its reasonable endeavours to effect such retraction. You will not be able to retract your order via the App, or after an Acceptance Notice has been generated. You will not be able to change your order after placing it, but may be able to retract it (subject to the above), and place a new one.
    6. Placing Food in your shopping basket on the App without completing the purchase cycle does not constitute an order for Food, and as such, Food may be removed from the shopping basket if stock is no longer available or the price thereof might change without notice to you. You cannot hold Runner RSA and/or the Restaurant liable if such Food is not available or is not available at a particular price when you complete or attempt to complete the purchase cycle at a later stage.
    7. Runner RSA relies on information supplied to it by the Restaurants relating to the Food, and Runner RSA accordingly bears no liability for any inaccuracies in such information supplied to it. You acknowledge that stock of all Food on offer may be limited. Runner RSA will take reasonable efforts to ensure that when Food is no longer available, offers thereof are discontinued on the App. However, we cannot guarantee the availability of Food. When Food is no longer available after you have placed an order or the Restaurant does not accept your order, Runner RSA will notify you thereof and reject your order or cancel the Sale (“Failed Order”).
      Runner RSA will credit your Credit Wallet for the amount you paid in respect of the Failed Order. You can use this credit either immediately or at a later date when you place your next order with Runner RSA.
      Should you wish to have a refund of the amount in your Credit Wallet, please refer to the FAQ.
    8. You also acknowledge that the pricing of Food may change at any time without notice to you, but no price change will affect any Food ordered in respect of which you have received an Acceptance Notice, except in the case of an obvious pricing error.In the event of an obvious pricing error, we may reject your order or cancel the Sale at any time and you will be entitled to a refund of the amount paid by you for such order.
    9. Any dispute regarding inaccurate information relating to a Restaurant or Food, Food pricing errors or sold-out Food should be resolved between you and the relevant Restaurant; your respective rights and obligations being as set out in these Terms and Conditions.
    10. It is your responsibility to establish from the relevant Restaurant which ingredients will be used when preparing the Food and make the necessary arrangements with such Restaurant to exclude any ingredients if you have any allergies or special requirements (unless such exclusions can be made by you on the App). We cannot and do not guarantee that the Food will be free of allergens and we disclaim any liability relating to any ingredients or allergens contained in Food.
    11. In order to make use of Runner RSA’s Courier Delivery services to deliver prescriptions and medication ordered from your Checkers MediRite pharmacy (“MediRite”), please refer to the FAQ section for the steps to be followed. In respect of a MediRite order, you warrant that you are the authorized person to receive the prescribed medicine to which your MediRite order relates
    12. In order to make use of Runner RSA’s Courier Delivery services for the purposes of collecting RAIN sim cards (“RAIN Order“), or for the purposes of having your RAIN Order delivered to you, please refer to the FAQ section for the steps to be followed.
  6. Minors, liquor and vaping products

    1. By using the App you warrant that you are 18 years of age or older and of full legal capacity. If you are under the age of 18 or if you are not legally permitted to enter into a binding agreement, then you may use the App only with the involvement and supervision of your parent or legal guardian. If your parent or legal guardian supervises you and gives his/her consent, then he/she agrees to be bound to these Terms and Conditions and to be liable and responsible for you and all your obligations under these Terms and Conditions.
    2. Restaurants may not sell liquor or vaping products to you if you are under the age of 18 (regardless of any supervision by a parent or guardian). You may be requested to provide proof of your age before receiving any liquor or vaping products ordered via the App. The Courier Delivery or Self-collection of any liquor or vaping products may be refused and you will be held liable for all charges relating to such order, should you fail to provide adequate proof that you are 18 years of age or older, or if you appear to be under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of delivery or collection of such products.
  7. Conclusion of Sales and availability of Food

    1. For each order, you will be charged:
      1. the total Food price by the relevant Restaurant;

    3. If specifically requested by you, Runner RSA will provide you with a valid invoice for any fees charged by it or the Cloud Driver (as the case may be) in respect of the Courier Delivery.
