1. About This Service

Budoja delivers fresh, chilled, allergen-safe kids' meals to families in Union County, New Jersey, so children have a ready-to-grab lunch (and optional breakfast or snack) each school day.
Meals are chef-prepared by licensed New Jersey restaurant partners in dedicated, strictly monitored cross-contamination-free zones — our Safe Kitchen Guarantee.
By signing up, placing an order, or activating a subscription, you agree to the terms below. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.
We may update these terms at any time. Continued use after changes means you accept the revised terms.

We currently deliver only within Union County, NJ — addresses with a 07xxx zip code.
If your zip code is outside our coverage area, your order cannot be fulfilled. We are actively expanding and will open new zones as we grow.
You must provide a accurate, complete delivery address (street, unit, zip) and a reachable phone number.
Deliveries are made to your porch or a designated safe drop spot at the address on file.

Standard delivery: your fresh, chilled tote is dropped on your porch between 8:00 PM and 9:00 PM the night before each school day (Sunday–Thursday evenings for Monday–Friday lunches).
Sunday Weekly Prep option: a full week's meals can be delivered in a single Sunday evening drop for families who prefer to plan ahead.
Delivery windows are estimates. Weather, traffic, and volume may shift the exact arrival time, but meals remain chilled and safe inside the insulated tote.
You can manage your delivery model, skip dates, and preferred times from your account.

Every delivery arrives in a reusable insulated tote. Each evening, leave the previous night's empty tote on your porch and our driver swaps it for the fresh one — no contact needed.
Totes are shared green inventory. Returning the empty tote each cycle is what keeps the loop running for every family and keeps waste down.
You'll receive a friendly reminder before any charge is made. If an empty tote is not returned after 3 delivery windows, a $15 replacement charge is automatically applied to your account.
Damaged or lost totes are subject to the same $15 replacement charge. Totes remain the property of Budoja at all times.

Meals are delivered chilled in insulated totes and must be moved to your refrigerator as soon as possible after drop-off.
Meals are best consumed within 2 days of delivery. Always check the packaging date before serving.
All meals are prepared 100% nut-free with strict allergen protocols. Dietary tags (Nut-Free, Dairy-Free, Gluten-Free) and full allergen info are shown on every menu item.
If your child has a severe allergy, please review the allergen list on each product and contact us before ordering. While we follow strict cross-contamination controls, we cannot guarantee zero risk for highly sensitive allergies.

Weekly subscription plans (Eat Box, Hot Box, Breakfast + Lunch Fuel Pack, All-Day Plan, Flexi, and Full Week packs) are billed weekly in advance via Stripe.
Your card is charged automatically each billing cycle until you pause or cancel.
You can pause, skip a week, or cancel your subscription anytime from your account — no phone call required. Changes take effect at the start of the next billing cycle.
We do not issue refunds for partial weeks once a cycle has been billed, but unused delivery credits may be applied to future weeks at our discretion.

Single one-time meal orders are paid in full at checkout via Stripe.
All prices are shown in U.S. dollars and include applicable meal costs. Any applicable taxes are calculated at checkout.
We use Stripe for secure payment processing — we never store your full card details on our servers.

If a delivery cannot be completed because the address is incorrect, access is blocked, or no safe drop spot is available, we'll attempt to contact you and may re-deliver or credit the meal.
Incorrect, missing, or damaged items must be reported within 24 hours of delivery so we can make it right with a replacement or credit.
We are not responsible for meals spoiled due to delays in refrigeration after a successful porch drop, or for issues caused by incorrect address information on your account.

Refund and credit requests are reviewed case-by-case and typically processed within 3–5 business days.
Approved refunds are returned to your original payment method. Meal credits appear in your account for use on future orders.
The $15 equipment replacement charge for unreturned totes is non-refundable once applied.

Keep your delivery address, phone number, and delivery preferences up to date.
Ensure there is a clear, safe spot for the porch drop and that the empty tote is left out for the nightly swap.
Refrigerate delivered meals promptly and review allergen info before serving to your child.
Accounts are for parents or guardians. Minors under 13 may not create accounts without parental consent.

We collect personal and delivery data only to fulfill your orders and improve the service.
Your data is never sold to third parties. Payment information is encrypted and handled securely by Stripe.
You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by contacting support.

If you have any questions about your delivery, subscription, or these terms, reach out through the Contact page in the app.
Our support team typically responds within one business hour during operating hours.
We're committed to making school lunch simple, safe, and stress-free for your family.
