Using Sunday Dinner Media

You may read, share links to, and use the site for lawful personal purposes. Do not interfere with the service, attempt unauthorized access, scrape or republish substantial portions of the publication, impersonate another person, or use our work in a misleading or unlawful way.

Editorial work and intellectual property

Unless otherwise credited, Sunday Dinner Media owns or licenses the articles, illustrations, photographs, logos, design, and other published materials. Quotation and linking are welcome when lawful and properly attributed, but republication, commercial reuse, or removal of credits requires written permission. Commentary and sponsored material are labeled so readers can distinguish them from reporting.

Free subscriptions and Reader Accounts

Reading is free. Subscription is free. A Reader Account may support sign-in, comments, preferences, and account administration; it does not place ordinary journalism behind a paywall or create a paid entitlement.

Voluntary Reader Support

Monthly or annual Reader Support helps fund the publication. It is voluntary and does not purchase ownership, editorial influence, favorable coverage, access to better facts, or a charitable tax deduction. Sunday Dinner does not promise paid benefits in exchange for support.

Billing, renewal, and cancellation

Stripe securely processes recurring Reader Support. Recurring support renews at the selected interval until canceled. Supporters may manage or cancel it through their Reader Account and Stripe billing portal. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period unless the checkout or billing screen states otherwise.

Refund policy

Reader Support payments are generally nonrefundable once a billing period begins because they immediately support ongoing editorial work. Duplicate charges, technical billing errors, or legally required refunds will be reviewed and corrected. A supporter who believes a charge was made in error should contact members@sundaydinnermedia.com promptly. Canceling prevents the next renewal but does not automatically refund the current period.

Accounts and availability

You are responsible for safeguarding your login information and providing accurate account details. We may suspend access for fraud, abuse, security threats, or material violations of these terms. We work to keep the publication available and accurate but cannot promise uninterrupted access or that every item will remain permanently available.

Questions and notices

Membership and billing questions may be sent to members@sundaydinnermedia.com. General legal or usage questions may be sent to contact@sundaydinnermedia.com. Written notices may be mailed to Sunday Dinner Media, c/o Clarence Mitchell, 204 Airport Plaza #1031, Farmingdale, NY 11735. This is a legal mailing address, not a public office or visitor location.
