Legal
Terms of Use
The ground rules for using obxprivatechef.com. Short version: this site is information and a way to reach us, and an estimate is not a contract. The work itself is done by an independent local provider.
Last updated: August 31, 2026
1. Accepting these terms
By using obxprivatechef.com, submitting the form, or calling or texting the number shown on it, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree with them, please do not use the site. In these terms, “we” and “us” mean OBX Private Chef, the operator of this website.
2. What this site is
This site is an informational website that lets you describe the work you need and get connected with a local provider serving Nags Head, Kitty Hawk, Duck. Everything on it — service descriptions, timelines, guidance, FAQs — is general information about the type of work, not advice about your specific property.
OBX Private Chef is a lead-generation service, not the company that performs the work. Enquiries and calls made through this site are referred to an independent local provider, and we may be compensated for that referral. We are not the service provider and do not perform the work ourselves.
3. No guarantee of availability
We cannot promise that a provider will be available for your job, that they will cover your address, or that any particular timescale can be met. Coverage areas, schedules, seasonal demand and the services on offer all change. Sending an enquiry does not create a booking, and nothing on this site is a commitment that work will be carried out. If we cannot help, we will tell you so you can look elsewhere without losing time.
4. Quotes and estimates
Any price, range or estimate given on this site, over the phone, or in reply to a form is an estimate only. It is based on what you have told us, before anyone has seen the property, and it is not a binding offer or a fixed price.
A price only becomes binding when the provider gives you a written quote for your specific job and you accept it. That written quote — together with the provider’s own terms, warranties and insurance — governs the work. These terms do not.
5. The provider is independent
The work is performed by an independent local provider, not by us. They are responsible for their own licensing, insurance, workmanship, warranties, scheduling, pricing and conduct on your property. We are not their agent, partner or employer, we do not supervise the work, and we are not a party to the agreement you make with them.
Before work starts, satisfy yourself about the provider in the normal way: ask for their licence and proof of insurance, get the scope and price in writing, and keep a copy.
6. Using the site responsibly
- Give accurate information. A quote based on wrong details is worth nothing to either side.
- Only submit contact details you are entitled to use, and only ask for work on a property you own or are authorised to arrange work for.
- Do not use the form or phone number to send spam, automated submissions, or anything unlawful, threatening or abusive.
- Do not attempt to disrupt, scrape at scale, probe or gain unauthorised access to the site or the systems behind it.
7. Accuracy of content
We try to keep this site accurate and current, but we do not warrant that it is complete, error-free, or up to date. The site and its content are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied, to the fullest extent permitted by law. We may change, add or remove content, or take the site down, at any time and without notice.
8. Content ownership
The text, images, layout and design of this site belong to OBX Private Chef or its licensors. You are welcome to read it, print it and share links to it. You may not copy or republish substantial parts of it, or use it to build a competing site, without our written permission.
9. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or costs of substitute services, arising out of your use of this site or an enquiry made through it — even if we have been told such damages are possible.
We are also not liable for the acts or omissions of any independent provider, including the quality, timing, safety or cost of work they carry out. Claims about the work itself belong with the provider who performed it.
Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited — including liability for fraud, or for death or personal injury caused by negligence. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
10. Links to other sites
Where this site links to a site we do not operate, we are not responsible for its content, accuracy or practices. Following such a link is at your own risk.
11. Privacy
What we do with the information you send us is set out in our privacy policy, which forms part of these terms.
12. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The current version is always the one on this page, and the “last updated” date at the top tells you when it changed. Continuing to use the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
13. Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute arising from them or from your use of this site will be handled by the state or federal courts located in North Carolina, and you agree to those courts having jurisdiction. If any part of these terms is found unenforceable, the rest stays in force.
