Terms of Service

These terms govern your use of kindredhomelife.com, free accounts, our newsletter, the free Holiday Hosting Workbook and other downloads, and Kindred Gathering Planner. The site is operated by Rip & Ride LLC, a Wyoming limited liability company. By using the site you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use it.

1. General information only

Our guides, calculator, timeline, downloads, emails and the Kindred Gathering Planner are general information about hosting and cooking. Food safety information is based on USDA guidance; always use a food thermometer and follow current USDA recommendations and product labels. We don't give medical or allergy advice; ask guests about allergies and dietary needs. Calculator results use the numbers you enter and are estimates only; actual thawing and cooking times vary.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to create an account or make a purchase.

3. Free accounts

• Accounts are free. You need a verified email address and a password.
• Keep your password confidential. You're responsible for activity under your account; tell us promptly if you think it's been misused.
• You can delete your account at any time from your account page. We may suspend or close accounts that break these terms or are used to abuse the site.
• Account holders receive account emails (verification and password resets), plus one email when the Gathering Planner is available only if they ask for it. The newsletter is separate and optional.

4. Kindred Gathering Planner

• When available, the Kindred Gathering Planner is a one-time purchase at the price shown on the planner page in US dollars, paid through our third-party payment provider. It is not a subscription.
• It is a set of digital printables for your own use.
• Refunds are covered by our Refund Policy.

10. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Rip & Ride LLC will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, arising from your use of the site, guides or Kindred Gathering Planner, or from decisions you make based on them. Our total liability for any claim relating to the site or Kindred Gathering Planner is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or $50.

13. Changes

We may update these terms. The date at the top shows when they last changed. If a change is material, we'll notify members by email. Continued use after a change means you accept it.
