Terms and Conditions
Effective date: August 28, 2026
These terms apply to www.wmdfoodbank.org (the “website”). Western Maryland Food Bank, Inc. (“WMFB,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) operates the website.
By using the website, you agree to these terms. Do not use the website if you do not agree.
Purpose of the website
The website gives information about WMFB, food assistance, member agencies, programs, volunteering, events, and donations.
We try to keep the information accurate. Program rules, locations, hours, food supplies, staff, and events can change.
Contact WMFB or the applicable agency to make sure that information is current.
We keep marked archive material for historical reference. Archive material can contain old dates, programs, offers, and instructions.
Archive material does not describe a current service unless the page clearly says that it does.
No emergency service or guarantee
Do not use the website or a contact form for an emergency. Call 911 or the applicable emergency service.
Website information is general information. It is not medical, nutritional, legal, tax, or financial advice.
Website use does not guarantee food, money, program eligibility, agency membership, a volunteer position, or another service.
Services depend on current supplies, program requirements, and partner rules.
Donations and PayPal
PayPal processes online donations. The terms, privacy statement, eligibility rules, and payment rules from PayPal apply.
WMFB does not control the PayPal website or payment system.
Examine the donation amount and payment details before you approve a payment.
A donation is voluntary. It does not give you an ownership interest in WMFB or a right to services.
WMFB can use a donation to support any part of our charitable mission. This rule applies unless WMFB accepts a restriction in writing.
Contact WMFB and PayPal promptly about an unauthorized, duplicate, or incorrect donation.
WMFB will examine refund requests under the applicable law, accounting duties, facts, and PayPal rules.
A refund is not approved until WMFB or PayPal confirms it.
PayPal will show the amount and frequency before you approve a recurring donation.
Use your PayPal account or contact WMFB to cancel a future recurring payment.
Keep your PayPal receipt and any WMFB acknowledgment. Tax rules for a donation depend on the law and your circumstances.
WMFB does not give tax advice. Ask a qualified tax adviser if you need tax advice.
Read the PayPal user agreement and privacy statement.
Children and minors
A child under 13 must not send personal information through the website.
If you are a minor, use the website with permission from a parent or legal guardian. Do not make a donation without that permission.
PayPal also applies its age and eligibility rules.

- Try to get unauthorized access to the website, server, or accounts.

Information that you send
You are responsible for information that you send through a form or message. Send only accurate information that is necessary for your request.
Do not send payment credentials, medical records, Social Security numbers, or urgent information through a website form.

Our Privacy Policy gives more information about this use.
Website content and ownership
WMFB or its licensors own the website content. This content includes the design, text, photographs, graphics, logos, and other materials.
A page can identify a different owner.
You can view, download, or print website material for personal, informational, and noncommercial use.
You must keep each copyright or ownership notice. These terms do not give you a license to use a WMFB name, logo, or trademark.
Third-party websites
The website can link to PayPal, partner agencies, government resources, and other third-party websites.
A link does not mean that WMFB controls or guarantees the third party or its content.
The terms and privacy policy of the third party apply when you use its service.
Website availability and disclaimers
We supply the website on an “as available” basis. We do not promise that each page will always be available, current, complete, secure, or error-free.
To the maximum extent that the law permits, WMFB disclaims warranties that these terms do not expressly state.
Limits of liability
Where the law permits, WMFB is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential loss.
This limit applies to website use, unavailable pages, old information, and third-party services.
These terms do not exclude or limit liability when the law does not permit that exclusion or limit.
Maryland law
Maryland law governs these terms, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
A legal proceeding must use a court with jurisdiction in Allegany County, Maryland.
This location rule does not apply if the law requires a different location.
Changes to these terms
We can change these terms when the website, our services, or the law changes.
We will post the new terms and their effective date on this page.
Your website use after a change means that you accept the new terms.
Severability
If a court cannot enforce one part of these terms, the other parts remain in effect.
