5. Information Provided
JBSS endeavors to provide accurate product descriptions and other information through the Services. However, JBSS cannot guarantee that such information will always be complete, accurate, current and error-free or that images will be displayed properly on your device.

Your wireless provider may charge for use of the App, including fees for receipt of text messages and data transmission. These fees are not charged by JBSS. You should contact your wireless provider if you have any questions about its fees.
