If you run a subscription box with "surprise" contents (like a date night box) and you put out a box with known allergens in it—latex, fragrances, peanuts, etc.—DO NOT JUST SEND IT TO PEOPLE'S HOMES WITHOUT GIVING THEM THE CHANCE TO OPT OUT OF THAT BOX.
My partner got us a subscription to a date night box as a cute thing for us to do in quarantine and they just sent us a box filled with fragrances and I immediately had an allergic reaction to it.
How hard would it have been to send out an email saying "the next box contains fragrances, please click this box if you'd like to skip this month's box."

Accessibility isn't that hard. People's health and safety matter.
