Monthly Activity Box Terms & Conditions

1. Description of Services

1.1 Monthly Activity Box (“Activity Box”). Description of Activity Box and terms associated with the subscription for Services:

  • The box will arrive before the 1st day of the Month of Service. The Month of Service is defined as the month the materials in the box are made for. For example, the April Activity Box will contain materials specific to the month of April. In this example, April is the Month of Service and the box will arrive in March, before the 1st day of April.
  • The box contains: A Monthly Activity Calendar that is customized for Customer and Activities by Maria’s Place (a minimum of 3 per day on weekdays and 1 per day on weekends), with directions and supplies as needed for each activity.
    • The Monthly Activity Calendar will contain activities and outings that Customer submits to Maria’s Place to enter into calendar. Customer is responsible for planning and providing any supplies for any activities in the calendar that were submitted by Customer to be included in the Monthly Activity Calendar.
    • Customer has the option to elect not to receive the Monthly Activity Calendar and instead receive the activities from the Monthly Activity Calendar as supplied by Maria’s Place in a list format so that Customer can incorporate the activities into Customer’s own calendar.
    • Customer acknowledges that Basic Standard Supplies will not be provided by Maria’s Place and are the sole responsibility of Customer to maintain inventory of such supplies. Basic Standard Supplies include but are not limited to: scissors, pens, pencils, regular paper, paints, markers, crayons, paint brushes, tape, glue stick, white glue, whiteboard or large paper for whiteboard activities and associated materials.
    • Customer acknowledges that because residents in Senior Living Communities enjoy repeating certain activities, Maria’s Place will repeat a select few activities provided by Maria’s Place each month.

1.2 In order for Services to be performed by Maria’s Place, Customer agrees to meeting the following deadlines:

  • Payment schedule, as described in Section 2 of this contract.
  • The deadline to subscribe to the Activity Box is the 1st day of the month prior to the Month of Service.
  • Any activities the Customer wants to be included in the Monthly Activity Calendar outside of the Maria’s Place provided activities must be submitted to Maria’s Place no later than the 7th day of the month prior to the Month of Service. If Maria’s Place has not received Customer’s submission by then, you will be sent a list of our activities instead of the calendar for that box (this way Customer can add the activities to Customer’s own calendar instead).

2. Payment

Payment shall be made by credit card.

Customer agrees to pay Maria’s Place as follows, depending what was selected by Customer at subscription checkout:

  • Year Long Commitment. Customer Agrees to commit to the monthly payment for one year. Customer agrees to pay a one-time account setup fee plus an ongoing subscription payment per month plus tax. The monthly subscription fee is charged on the 1st of the month before the Month of Service.
  • Year Long Commitment Paid in Full. Customer Agrees to pay for the year in full at checkout. No monthly payments.
  • Month-to-Month Commitment. Customer Agrees to commit to the monthly payment on a month-to-month basis. Customer agrees to pay a one-time account setup fee plus an ongoing subscription payment plus tax. The monthly subscription fee is charged on the 1st of the month before the Month of Service.

If any invoice is not paid when due, Services for the Month of Service will not be delivered by Maria’s Place.

In addition to any other right or remedy provided by law, if Customer fails to pay for the Services when due, Maria’s Place has the option to treat such failure to pay as a material breach of this Agreement, and may cancel this Agreement and/or seek legal remedies as described below under “Remedies on Default.”

3. Refund and Cancellation Policy
All Cancellation requests must be made in writing. To cancel, Customer must contact Maria’s Place by emailing contact@mariasplace.com, with the email subject line “CANCEL ACTIVITY BOX” and in the body of the email, Customer must provide Customer’s account information and relevant cancellation information.

3.1 Cancellation Policy for Year Long Commitment paid monthly. If Customer wishes to cancel Services before the Year Long Commitment is fulfilled, Customer will be charged a cancellation fee of $500. Because Customer pays for the Month of Service one month in advance, customer must cancel 30 or more days in advance to stop receiving services for the Month of Service (e.g. if Customer cancels after March 1st and before April 1st, Customer will receive April Activity Box but not May Activity Box or any other following Activity Boxes). Customer is not and will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period.

3.2 Cancellation Policy for Year Long Commitment paid in full. If Customer wishes to cancel Services before the Year Long Commitment is fulfilled, Customer will be charged a cancellation fee of $500. Because Customer pays for the Month of Service one month in advance, customer must cancel 30 or more days in advance to stop receiving services for the Month of Service (e.g. if Customer cancels after March 1st and before April 1st, Customer will receive April Activity Box but not May Activity Box or any other following Activity Boxes). Customer is not and will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period.

3.2 Cancellation Policy for Month to Month Commitment. Customer can cancel Services at any time with no fee. Because Customer pays for the Month of Service one month in advance, customer must cancel 30 or more days in advance to stop receiving services for the Month of Service (e.g. if Customer cancels after March 1st and before April 1st, Customer will receive April Activity Box but not May Activity Box or any other following Activity Boxes). Customer is not and will not be eligible for a prorated refund of any portion of the subscription fee paid for the then-current subscription period.

3.3 Refund Policy. Customer understands and agrees that there are no refunds or exchanges for any products provided by Maria’s Place once items are delivered to the carrier who delivers these products to the Customer, unless product received by Customer is damaged. Maria’s Place provides a selection of products which may vary from box to box sent to various Customers of the Service. Maria’s Place cannot accommodate specific requests for certain products, as Maria’s Place operates from a limited inventory of products depending on availability.

4. Warranties
Maria’s Place shall provide its services and meet its obligations under this Agreement in a timely and workmanlike manner, using knowledge and recommendations for performing the services which meet generally acceptable standards in Maria’s Place’s community and region, and will provide a standard of care equal to, or superior to, care used by service providers similar to Maria’s Place on similar projects.

7. Remedies on Default
In addition to any and all other rights a party may have available according to law, if a party defaults by failing to substantially perform any provision, term or condition of this Agreement (including without limitation the failure to make a monetary payment when due), the other party may terminate the Agreement by providing written notice to the defaulting party. This notice shall describe with sufficient detail the nature of the default. The party receiving such notice shall have 5 days from the effective date of such notice to cure the default(s). Unless waived by a party providing notice, the failure to cure the default(s) within such time period shall result in the automatic termination of this Agreement.

8. Force Majeure 
If performance of this Agreement or any obligation under this Agreement is prevented, restricted, or interfered with by causes beyond either party’s reasonable control (“Force Majeure”), and if the party unable to carry out its obligations gives the other party prompt written notice of such event, then the obligations of the party invoking this provision shall be suspended to the extent necessary by such event. The term Force Majeure shall include, without limitation, acts of God, fire, explosion, vandalism, storm or other similar occurrence, orders or acts of military or civil authority, or by national emergencies, insurrections, riots, or wars, or strikes, lock-outs, work stoppages. The excused party shall use reasonable efforts under the circumstances to avoid or remove such causes of non-performance and shall proceed to perform with reasonable dispatch whenever such causes are removed or ceased. An act or omission shall be deemed within the reasonable control of a party if committed, omitted, or caused by such party, or its employees, officers, agents, or affiliates.

The decision rendered by the arbitrator(s) shall be final and binding on the parties, and judgment may be entered in conformity with the decision in any court having jurisdiction. During the continuance of any arbitration proceeding, the parties shall continue to perform their respective obligations under this Contract.

10. Confidentiality
Maria’s Place, and its employees, agents, or representatives will not at any time or in any manner, either directly or indirectly, use for the personal benefit of Maria’s Place, or divulge, disclose, or communicate in any manner, any information that is proprietary to Customer. Maria’s Place and its employees, agents, and representatives will protect such information and treat it as strictly confidential. This provision will continue to be effective after the termination of this Agreement.
