TERMS AND CONDITIONS
Effective Date: July 21, 2026
Welcome to The Coffee Chemist.
These Terms and Conditions govern your access to and use of thecoffeechemist.com, shop.thecoffeechemist.com, and any related webpages, online stores, services, content, and features operated by THE COFFEE CHEMIST, LLC, doing business as The Coffee Chemist (“The Coffee Chemist,” “we,” “us,” or “our”).
By accessing our website, creating an account, placing an order, or otherwise using our services, you agree to these Terms and Conditions. Please read them carefully before using the website or purchasing a product.
If you do not agree with these Terms and Conditions, you should not use the website or place an order.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction to place an order through our website.
Individuals under 18 may use the website only with the involvement and permission of a parent or legal guardian.
Our website and services are not directed to children under 13. We do not knowingly request or collect personal information directly from children under 13.
2. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms and Conditions periodically to reflect changes to our products, services, business practices, suppliers, technology, or legal obligations.
The updated version will be posted on this page with a revised effective date. Changes become effective when posted unless otherwise stated.
Your continued use of the website after updated Terms and Conditions are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
3. Website Use
The Coffee Chemist provides this website for personal, lawful, and noncommercial use unless we provide written permission for another use.
You agree not to:
- Use the website for fraudulent, unlawful, or abusive purposes.
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the website, customer accounts, servers, or systems.
- Introduce viruses, malicious code, automated scraping tools, or other harmful technology.
- Interfere with the website’s security, operation, availability, or performance.
- Copy, reproduce, modify, distribute, or commercially exploit website content without permission.
- Impersonate another person or provide false account, billing, or shipping information.
- Use the website to violate the intellectual property or privacy rights of another person.
- Place orders for unauthorized resale, fraudulent chargebacks, testing stolen payment information, or other improper purposes.
We may restrict, suspend, or terminate access to the website when we reasonably believe these Terms have been violated.
4. Product Information
We make reasonable efforts to display product descriptions, photographs, ingredients, materials, measurements, colors, roast profiles, flavor notes, grind options, and other information accurately.
However, some variation may occur.
Coffee and tea are agricultural products, and natural differences may occur between harvests, origins, roasting batches, and production runs. Flavor descriptions and tasting notes are subjective and are provided as general guidance rather than guarantees of a particular experience.
Product colors may also appear differently depending on your device, screen settings, lighting, printing process, fabric, or production method.
Merchandise measurements and sizing information are approximate. Customers are responsible for reviewing available sizing charts and product specifications before ordering.
We reserve the right to correct typographical errors, inaccurate descriptions, pricing errors, photographs, availability information, or other website content at any time.
5. Food, Ingredient, Caffeine, and Allergy Information
Coffee, tea, drink-related products, gift sets, and food products may contain or come into contact with allergens.
Customers are responsible for reviewing all product labels, ingredient lists, preparation instructions, warnings, and allergen information before consuming or serving a product.
Unless specifically labeled otherwise, coffee and tea products may contain caffeine. Individual sensitivity to caffeine varies.
Statements concerning coffee, tea, herbs, flavor ingredients, wellness, energy, concentration, or other product characteristics are provided for general informational purposes only. Our products and website content are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease or medical condition.
Customers with allergies, dietary restrictions, medical conditions, pregnancy-related concerns, or sensitivity to caffeine should consult an appropriate healthcare professional before consuming a product.
6. Product Availability
All products are subject to availability.
Some products are roasted, blended, printed, labeled, assembled, or manufactured after an order is placed. Other products may be supplied and fulfilled through independent manufacturers, distributors, printing companies, or fulfillment partners.
Placing an item in your cart does not reserve the item or guarantee its availability.
We may limit quantities, discontinue products, modify product specifications, or refuse an order when inventory, production, supplier, legal, safety, or fraud-prevention concerns arise.
7. Orders and Order Acceptance
Submitting an order is an offer to purchase the selected products. An automated order confirmation acknowledges that we received your order but does not necessarily mean that the order has been accepted.
We may accept, reject, cancel, or limit an order for reasons including:
- Product unavailability.
- Incorrect pricing or product information.
- Payment authorization failure.
- Suspected fraud or unauthorized payment activity.
- Supplier or production limitations.
- Shipping restrictions.
- Errors in customer-provided information.
- Violations of these Terms and Conditions.
If we cancel an order after payment has been collected, we will issue an appropriate refund for the canceled portion of the order.
8. Customer Information
You are responsible for providing accurate and complete:
- Customer and recipient names.
- Email addresses.
- Telephone numbers.
- Billing information.
- Shipping addresses.
- Product selections.
- Grind selections.
- Sizes, colors, quantities, personalization, and other order details.
We are not responsible for delays, failed deliveries, returned packages, production errors, or replacement expenses caused by information entered incorrectly by the customer.
Please review your order carefully before submitting it.
9. Prices, Taxes, and Payment
All prices are displayed in United States dollars unless otherwise stated.
Prices may change without notice. The price charged will generally be the price displayed when the order is submitted, subject to correction of obvious errors.
Applicable sales tax, shipping charges, handling charges, and other disclosed fees will be calculated during checkout.
Payment must be successfully authorized before an order is processed. We may use third-party payment processors to securely process transactions. We do not guarantee that every payment method will remain available.
You represent that you are authorized to use the payment method submitted with your order.
10. Order Changes and Cancellations
Many Coffee Chemist products are custom prepared, roasted to order, printed on demand, labeled on demand, assembled for the customer, or submitted to a supplier shortly after purchase.
Cancellation or modification requests must be submitted within two hours of placing the order.
Requests should be sent to [CUSTOMER SERVICE EMAIL] and should include:
- The customer’s full name.
- The order number.
- The item that needs to be changed or canceled.
- A clear description of the requested change.
Submitting a request within the two-hour period does not guarantee that the order can be changed or canceled. Production and fulfillment may begin immediately.
Once an order has entered production, been roasted, printed, personalized, packaged, fulfilled, or shipped, it generally cannot be canceled or modified.
If a customer provides incorrect product information, grind selection, size, color, personalization, or shipping information, the customer may be responsible for the cost of replacement, reshipment, or correction.
11. Shipping and Delivery
Shipping and delivery are governed by our separate Shipping Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms and Conditions by reference.
Processing and delivery estimates are estimates rather than guarantees unless we expressly state otherwise.
Because products may come from different suppliers or fulfillment locations:
- Items from the same order may arrive in separate packages.
- Items may have different processing and delivery times.
- Customers may receive more than one shipping confirmation or tracking number.
- Coffee, tea, merchandise, accessories, and gift items may ship separately.
We are not responsible for delays caused by carriers, weather, natural disasters, customs, incorrect addresses, labor disruptions, transportation interruptions, supplier delays, or other circumstances outside our reasonable control.
Customers are responsible for monitoring tracking information and providing a secure delivery location.
Ownership and risk of loss pass as permitted by applicable law and the shipping arrangement used for the order.
12. Undeliverable, Refused, or Returned Packages
Customers are responsible for entering a complete and deliverable shipping address.
If a package is returned because of an incorrect address, incomplete address, refusal, failure to retrieve the package, or another customer-related delivery issue, the customer may be responsible for additional shipping, replacement, and handling charges.
Food products returned by a carrier may not be eligible for resale or reshipment for health and safety reasons.
Please review our Shipping Policy for additional information.
13. Returns, Replacements, and Refunds
Returns, replacements, refunds, damaged products, incorrect products, lost packages, and order issues are governed by our separate Return and Refund Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms and Conditions by reference.
Because many products are consumable, custom prepared, roasted to order, printed on demand, personalized, or otherwise created specifically for the customer, they may not be eligible for return based solely on preference, incorrect customer selections, or a change of mind.
When The Coffee Chemist or one of our fulfillment partners makes an error, our preferred resolution will generally be a replacement of the affected item. A refund or other resolution may be offered when replacement is unavailable, inappropriate, or required by law.
Customers must report damaged, defective, missing, or incorrect products within the period stated in our Return and Refund Policy and provide the requested photographs, packaging information, or other documentation.
Nothing in these Terms eliminates any nonwaivable rights available to a customer under applicable law.
14. Promotions and Discount Codes
Promotional offers, discount codes, giveaways, free-shipping offers, bundles, and limited-time pricing may be subject to additional rules.
Unless otherwise stated:
- Promotions cannot be combined.
- Discount codes have no cash value.
- Promotions cannot be applied retroactively.
- Promotions may be limited by product, quantity, customer, location, or date.
- Promotions may be modified or discontinued before an order is placed.
- Fraudulent or unauthorized use of a promotion may result in cancellation.
15. Gift Cards
Gift cards, when available, may be used only for eligible purchases from The Coffee Chemist.
Gift cards may not be redeemed for cash except where required by law. Lost, stolen, damaged, or unauthorized gift cards may not be replaced unless we can verify the card and applicable law requires or permits replacement.
Additional gift-card terms may be provided at the time of purchase.
16. Accounts and Passwords
Some website features may allow or require you to create an account.
You are responsible for:
- Maintaining the confidentiality of your password.
- Restricting access to your devices and account.
- Providing accurate account information.
- Promptly notifying us of suspected unauthorized activity.
- All activity conducted through your account unless prohibited by law.
We may suspend or close accounts that contain false information, appear compromised, are used fraudulently, or violate these Terms.

The website and its content—including The Coffee Chemist name, COF2E2 branding, logos, packaging concepts, graphics, illustrations, photographs, product names, text, educational materials, blog content, videos, downloads, designs, and website layout—are owned by or licensed to The Coffee Chemist and are protected by applicable intellectual property laws.
You may view and use website content for personal, noncommercial purposes.
You may not reproduce, modify, distribute, publish, sell, license, create derivative works from, remove ownership notices from, or commercially exploit our intellectual property without prior written permission.
No license or ownership right is transferred to you merely because you access the website or purchase a product.
18. Customer Reviews and Other Submitted Content
Customers may be permitted to submit reviews, photographs, comments, testimonials, recipes, social-media tags, suggestions, or other content.
You retain ownership of your original content. By voluntarily submitting content to us or tagging The Coffee Chemist in content intended for public sharing, you grant us a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to reproduce, display, share, adapt, and use that content for website, social-media, customer-service, promotional, and marketing purposes, subject to applicable law and our Privacy Policy.

19. Educational and Informational Content
Blog posts, brewing guides, tasting notes, recipes, origin information, cultural information, educational resources, and other content are provided for general informational and educational purposes.
Although we work to provide useful and accurate information, we do not guarantee that all content will be complete, error-free, current, or suitable for every individual circumstance.

These Terms and Conditions are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

You and The Coffee Chemist consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, unlawful, or unenforceable, that provision will be interpreted or limited to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will remain in effect.
