The terms that govern your use of tucsonfoodie.com, the Tucson Foodie app, and the Insiders Club membership, including our SMS program terms.
Last updated: July 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of tucsonfoodie.com, the Tucson Foodie mobile app, and related services (together, the "Services"), operated by Tucson Foodie, LLC ("Tucson Foodie," "we," "us"). By using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
1. The Services
Tucson Foodie is a local food media publication and community. The Services include editorial content (news, guides, events), community features (accounts, saved lists, dish photos, ratings), and a paid membership program (the "Insiders Club").
2. Accounts
You may need an account to use certain features. You are responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and for all activity under your account. You must be at least 13 years old to create an account. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.
3. Memberships and payments
Paid memberships are billed through our payment processor, Stripe, on the schedule presented at signup. Memberships renew automatically until canceled. You can cancel at any time, effective at the end of the current billing period. Member perks (such as vouchers) are offered by Tucson Foodie and participating businesses, have no cash value, may change or end at any time, and are subject to any terms shown with the specific perk. Refunds are handled on a case-by-case basis; contact us at info@tucsonfoodie.com.
4. Your content
Features of the Services let you submit content — for example, dish photos, names, and descriptions ("User Content"). You retain ownership of your User Content. By submitting it, you grant Tucson Foodie a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, display, reproduce, and distribute that content in connection with operating and promoting the Services (for example, showing your dish photo in the app, on the website, or in our social channels, with credit where we display it).
You agree not to submit content that is unlawful, infringing, deceptive, hateful, or that you do not have the right to share. We may remove User Content at our discretion.
5. Our content
The Services and their contents — articles, guides, photographs, graphics, logos, and software — are owned by Tucson Foodie or its licensors and are protected by copyright and other laws. You may share links to our content and use it for personal, non-commercial purposes. You may not republish, scrape, or commercially exploit our content without written permission.
6. Acceptable use
You agree not to misuse the Services, including by: attempting to access accounts or systems without authorization; interfering with the operation of the Services; scraping or bulk-collecting content or data; impersonating others; or using the Services to send spam or unlawful communications.
7. Events and third-party businesses
The Services describe restaurants, events, and other third-party businesses. We work hard for accuracy, but hours, menus, prices, and availability change; we are not responsible for the acts, omissions, products, or services of third-party businesses. Tickets or purchases from third parties are governed by those parties' terms.
8. SMS / text messaging program
If you opt in to receive text messages from Tucson Foodie, the following terms apply.
