Rewards Program Participation Rules

D&W Fresh Market Rewards Program (collectively, the “Program”), owned and operated by Family Fare, LLC and its affiliates and subsidiaries (collectively, “Family Fare”). These Program Participation Rules (the “Rules”) govern your participation in the Program. You agree to be bound by these Rules, as they are amended from time to time, when you open a Program account (“Account”) or participate in the Program. In these Rules “you” and “your” refers to each customer who opens an Account. “We,” “us,” and “our” refers to Family Fare and the stores participating in the Program.
  1. Participating Stores. The following stores participate in the Program:
  1. Program Description. The Program offers participating customers in-store savings on identified products sold at participating stores. We may also offer participating customers with other promotions, benefits, and rewards for shopping at participating stores from time to time. Your Account is not assignable.
  1. Enrolling in the Program. You may enroll in the Program and register to obtain an Account and, if applicable, an associated Account card (“Card”) in a number of ways:
  • Downloading the mobile app for any of the participating stores above;
  • Visiting the in-store kiosk;
  • While at the check-out or by visiting the Customer Service Counter at any of the participating stores;
  • Clicking on the “Join now” yes link on a participating store’s website;
If you enroll online, you may print a paper copy of your Card on your home printer or you may designate a participating store where you may pick up your Card at the store’s Customer Service Counter. A Card is not required to participate in the Program. You must be at least 18 years of age to have an Account. If you would like a member of your household who is at least 13 years of age but under 18 years of age to participate in the Program, you may request at the Customer Service Counter that we issue him or her a Card that accesses your Account. You will be responsible for the use of the Account by that person. The Program is open to individuals only and may not be used by companies, businesses, charities, corporations, partnerships or any other entity. To obtain the available in-store savings and/or to participate in other promotions and benefits we offer at participating stores as part of the Program, you may be required to present your Card, provide us with your phone number as it appears in your Account information, or otherwise give us the information required to look up your Account at check out. If you fail to provide us with such information at check out, you may not be able to receive in-store savings, and we will not be able to retroactively allow you do so for that transaction.
  1. Linking Accounts. Cards, phone numbers or other information can be linked to a single Account. Accounts that are linked together will be identified in aggregate as a Household. We will select a member of your household to designate as the “primary shopper.” In addition, any two or more customers, regardless of whether they are in the same household, can request at a participating store’s Customer Service Counter that their information be linked. To do this, the Program participants must be present and provide a picture ID All transaction history attributable to each of the linked Accounts will be linked to the primary shopper’s Account and may be viewed by any Program participant linked to that Account. Your Account may only be in one linked relationship.
Any Program participant whose Account is linked to another Program participant may at any time request at a participating store’s Customer Service Desk that his or her information be unlinked from the other Program participant. If the primary shopper is delinked from the linked Account, we will designate another primary shopper for the linked Account. The yes Program and Fresh Rewards Program are separate programs. However, any digital coupons, in-store savings, promotions or benefits that you may upload to one Account may be used at any store participating in the Program. Some promotions are specific to a participating store, so not all participating stores will participate in each promotion. If you have a Fresh Rewards Account and/or a yes Rewards Account, you may have your Accounts share the same household by linking the two Accounts, and you may use the Accounts interchangeably. Customers who request to link or unlink their Account must allow us up to 3 Business Days to implement the request. For purposes of these Rules, a “Business Day” is any day from Monday through Friday that a majority of the participating stores are open for business.
  1. Keeping Information Current. You agree to submit and maintain accurate and current user information in connection with your Account. Such information includes name, address, email address, and telephone number. You can update your Account information by (i) accessing your Account through our website, mobile app, or an in-store kiosk; (ii) requesting an update at the Customer Service Counter at any participating store; or (iii) calling us at 888-880-9371. For security reasons, we cannot accept changes by mail or e-mail.

We will not be responsible for any unauthorized access to your Account. You should not share your Account information, Card or your username and password with anyone.

Specifically, we may share Personal Information with third parties who provide services to us, including without limitation, our auditors and accountants, attorneys, and third parties whom (i) provide data entry services for Program applications, (ii) conduct consumer research for us, and (iii) mail materials or post advertisements for products and services in which you may be interested. If we use a third party to provide services that involve access to any Personal Information, it will be for limited purposes and in compliance with these Rules. We may also share Personal Information with third parties for marketing and other purposes as well as with any co-sponsor(s) of contests, sweepstakes, or other promotional activities.

F. Retention. We may retain Personal Information as needed to maintain the Program and provide you with any services; to comply with any legal obligations, meet any regulatory requirements, resolve any disputes or litigation, or as otherwise needed to enforce these Rules; and to prevent fraud and abuse.
