Website Terms of Use

Last Revised: 22. April 2024

These Website Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of this website or mobile application, as applicable (including all of its content, the “Site”), which is made available by and operated on behalf of Franchise World Headquarters, LLC (together with its affiliates, the “Subway® Group,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) and any promotions offered by the Subway® Group. "Affiliate" means, with respect to a specified entity, an entity that, directly or indirectly (through one or more intermediaries), controls, or is controlled by, or is under common control with the specified entity (including, for example, subsidiaries and parent companies). Please review these Terms carefully, as they form a binding contract between you and the Subway® Group.

By accessing, browsing, or otherwise using the Site (including, where the applicable Site is a mobile app, by downloading), or by signing up for or using any Subway® Group promotions, you agree on behalf of yourself and any organization or company that you represent (together, “you”) that you have read and understand these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Site.

While we operate the Site, we are not responsible for the operation of Subway® restaurants. Instead, Subway® restaurants are owned and operated by independent franchisees. Each restaurant is solely and independently responsible for its legal and regulatory compliance, for any issues relating to the sale of products to you, and for any employment related matters pertaining to the restaurant.

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time taking the interest of Subway® into account. All changes will be effective immediately upon posting to the Site and, by accessing or using the Site after changes are posted, you agree to those changes. Material changes will be prominently posted on the Site.

6. Career Opportunities

The Site may provide links to job opportunities posted by the Subway® Group’s corporate offices or by Subway® restaurants or franchisees and may include instructions on how to apply for those opportunities. With respect to job opportunities posted for the Subway® Group’s corporate offices, do not send us a resume or any other application materials for any person other than yourself. Your submission of a resume or other application materials does not in any way require us to review those materials or consider you for a position.

The restaurant that posted the opportunity is solely responsible for setting the job requirements, all hiring decisions, and all other employment-related matters in its business. We do not receive a copy of any application you submit to a restaurant. Subway® restaurants are independently owned and operated.
