Terms of Use - Global Menus

Welcome to Global Menu. These Terms of Use describe the rules that apply when you access, browse, or interact with our website. Please read them carefully before using Global Menu.

By continuing to use this website, you agree to follow these Terms. If you do not accept them, you should stop using Global Menu.

1. Purpose of Global Menu

Global Menu is a dining discovery website that provides information about restaurants, cafés, food destinations, menus, dishes, prices, locations, dining features, and related topics.

Our content is intended to help visitors research dining options and learn more about places they may want to visit.

Unless clearly indicated otherwise, Global Menu is an independent informational platform. The appearance of a restaurant on our website does not mean that Global Menu owns, operates, manages, represents, or is officially affiliated with that establishment.

2. Using Our Website

You may browse and use Global Menu for lawful, personal, and informational purposes.

When accessing the website, you agree not to engage in activities that could damage Global Menu, interfere with other visitors, or misuse our content or systems.

Prohibited activities include:

  • Attempting to gain unauthorized access to our website, servers, or systems.

  • Uploading or distributing malware, viruses, or harmful code.

  • Using automated tools to extract large amounts of content without authorization.

  • Misrepresenting your identity or relationship with a restaurant or other organization.

  • Using Global Menu to distribute fraudulent, unlawful, threatening, or abusive material.

  • Interfering with the normal operation, security, or performance of the website.

  • Republishing substantial portions of our original content for commercial purposes without permission.

3. Restaurant Details May Change

The restaurant industry changes frequently. A restaurant may revise its menu, adjust prices, change opening hours, introduce or remove dishes, relocate, alter its services, or temporarily or permanently close.

For this reason, information displayed on Global Menu should be considered a helpful reference rather than a guarantee of current availability.

We may present information including:

  • Menu items and specialties.

  • Estimated or reported prices.

  • Restaurant addresses.

  • Business hours.

  • Phone numbers.

  • Cuisine types.

  • Amenities and service options.

  • Dietary choices.

  • Restaurant descriptions.

  • Customer impressions.

Although we aim to provide useful information, we cannot guarantee that every detail will always be complete, current, or free from errors.

For information that may affect your visit, purchase, reservation, or dietary needs, you should verify the details with the restaurant or relevant service provider.

4. Editorial Content and Opinions

Global Menu may publish restaurant descriptions, dining guides, reviews, recommendations, menu highlights, rankings, or other editorial content.

Restaurant experiences are subjective. Service, food quality, atmosphere, availability, and individual preferences can vary between visits and customers.

Content published by Global Menu should therefore not be interpreted as a promise that your experience will match a particular description, rating, review, or recommendation.

We reserve the right to update, revise, expand, or remove editorial content whenever appropriate.

5. Pricing and Menu Information

Any prices shown on Global Menu are provided for informational purposes.

Restaurants may change their prices without notifying us, and prices may differ depending on location, portion size, ordering method, delivery service, taxes, fees, promotions, or other circumstances.

Likewise, a dish displayed on Global Menu may no longer be offered when you visit or place an order.

The restaurant or ordering provider should be considered the appropriate source for final menu availability and transaction pricing.

6. Food Allergies and Dietary Requirements

Global Menu may mention vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, healthy, allergen-conscious, or other dietary options when relevant.

Such descriptions are informational and should not be treated as a guarantee regarding ingredients, preparation methods, cross-contact, nutritional value, or suitability for a particular medical condition.

Anyone with a food allergy, intolerance, or strict dietary requirement should speak directly with the restaurant before ordering or consuming a meal.

Global Menu does not provide professional medical, health, or nutritional advice.

7. Content Submitted by Visitors

Certain areas of Global Menu may allow visitors to provide restaurant suggestions, corrections, reviews, photographs, comments, or other material.

When you submit content, you represent that you have the appropriate right to share it and that it does not unlawfully infringe another person's rights.

Content submitted to Global Menu must not:

  • Contain knowingly false or deceptive claims.

  • Infringe copyright, trademark, privacy, or other rights.

  • Contain unlawful threats or harassment.

  • Include malicious software or harmful files.

  • Promote fraudulent or illegal activities.

  • Impersonate another individual or organization.

We may decline, edit, moderate, or remove submitted content when we believe doing so is appropriate.

Submission does not guarantee publication.

8. Permission to Use Submitted Material

When you voluntarily provide content for publication on Global Menu, you give us permission to host, display, reproduce, format, edit, and distribute that content as reasonably necessary to operate and promote the platform.

This permission is non-exclusive, meaning you may continue using your original content elsewhere unless a separate agreement states otherwise.

You remain responsible for ensuring that anything you submit can legally be shared.

9. Ownership of Global Menu Content

The original articles, written descriptions, website design, branding, graphics, organization, and other original materials appearing on Global Menu may be protected by applicable intellectual property rights.

Original works of authorship can receive copyright protection, which is why our Terms restrict unauthorized reproduction of Global Menu's original materials.

Visitors may read and reference our content for ordinary personal use. However, you may not reproduce, republish, sell, systematically copy, or commercially distribute substantial portions of our original content without authorization, except as permitted by applicable law.

10. Third-Party Intellectual Property

Restaurant names, trademarks, logos, menu names, photographs, and other third-party materials may belong to their respective owners.

Their inclusion on Global Menu is not intended to imply ownership, sponsorship, endorsement, partnership, or official affiliation unless such a relationship is specifically disclosed.

If you believe content on Global Menu improperly uses material that you own, please contact us with sufficient information to allow us to review the issue.

11. External Websites

Global Menu may direct visitors to websites or services operated by third parties, including restaurants, reservation providers, delivery platforms, social networks, and mapping services.

These external services are independent from Global Menu.

We are not responsible for their:

Unless expressly stated otherwise, Global Menu does not act as the restaurant, seller, delivery provider, or payment processor for transactions mentioned on the website.

If you reserve a table, place an order, purchase food, arrange delivery, or make a payment through another provider, that transaction takes place between you and the applicable third party.

Global Menu is not responsible for disputes involving food orders, reservation availability, cancellations, payments, refunds, delivery times, service charges, or restaurant service.

13. Corrections and Restaurant Updates

We welcome reasonable requests to correct outdated or inaccurate restaurant information.

Restaurant owners, authorized representatives, and visitors may contact us when they identify information that may require review.

Submitting a correction does not automatically require Global Menu to publish the requested change. We may independently review available information before modifying a listing.

14. No Professional Advice

Content on Global Menu is produced for general dining and informational purposes.

Nothing published on the website should be interpreted as medical, nutritional, legal, financial, or other professional advice.

Visitors remain responsible for evaluating information and making decisions appropriate to their individual circumstances.

15. Website Availability

We may occasionally modify the structure, features, categories, restaurant listings, or functionality of Global Menu.

We may also suspend or discontinue sections of the website when necessary for maintenance, security, development, or other operational reasons.

Continuous or error-free access to every part of Global Menu is not guaranteed.

16. Disclaimer

Global Menu is provided on an “as available” and “as is” basis to the extent allowed by applicable law.

We do not guarantee that:

This may include issues arising from restaurant visits, menu changes, pricing differences, unavailable dishes, third-party transactions, reservations, external websites, or user-submitted content.

Nothing in these Terms is intended to exclude rights or responsibilities that cannot legally be excluded.

18. Responsibility for Your Conduct

You are responsible for how you use Global Menu and for content you choose to submit.

Where permitted by applicable law, you agree to be responsible for reasonable losses, claims, or expenses resulting from your unlawful misuse of Global Menu, violation of these Terms, or infringement of another party's rights.
