Terms and Conditions

This policy was last updated on November 01, 2025

Hello, and welcome to Teacup Riot—where we keep things honest, cozy, and drama-free. This document lays out the simple rules for hanging out here. We tried to make it painless, so grab your mug and let's get this done.

1. Using This Site (The Deal)

By scrolling around teacupriot.com, you're shaking hands with us and agreeing to this simple agreement. If you don't like the terms, no big deal—just close the tab and find something else lovely to do.

The core asks:

• Be a good neighbor. Don't copy our work and call it yours. If you want to share a quote or an idea, link back to us. It's called giving credit.
• No Shenanigans. Don't try to hack, spam, or generally mess up the experience for others. We're peaceful, but we'll defend the quiet.
• Stay Legal. Don't use the site to break any laws. (Seriously, we shouldn't have to say this.)

2. Who Owns the Vibe? (Intellectual Property)

Short answer: We do. Everything you see here—the words, the logos, the recipes, and the unique Teacup Riot feeling—belongs to us (unless we specifically noted otherwise).

• Sharing is a Must: Quote us, share our links, and talk about us online—that's great! Just make sure to credit us and don't try to sell our stuff.
• Commercial Use? If you plan to use our work for anything that makes money, ask for permission first.

3. If You Post Something (User Content)

If and when we let you post comments, reviews, or anything else, here are the rules for keeping the atmosphere cozy:

• The Vibe Check: The rule is simple: don't be a jerk. We reserve the right to erase anything that's hateful, spammy, or just plain mean.
• The Goal: Be kind. Be interesting. Be respectful of other people's quiet.

4. How We Pay For Tea (Affiliate Links & Ads)

We need to be straight with you: this site isn't free to run.

• Our Links: Some links are affiliate links. If you buy something after clicking one, we get a small thank-you payment. The price never goes up for you. In fact, these often include special discounts just for our readers.
• Ads: We use Google AdSense to pay for the hosting. We promise to be transparent over tricky about how they show up.

5. Analytics & Cookies (The Digital Footprint)

We only track anonymous data to make the site better. We're not here to spy on you:

• We use simple tools (like Google Analytics and Umami) to see which posts are popular.
• Cookies are just small files the ads and analytics tools need to work.
• The Full Deal: We laid out all the deep details on protecting your information in our separate, custom-written Privacy Policy.

6. Stepping Outside the Teacup (External Links)

We link to other great places online. But the internet is huge, and we only control this little corner.

• Your Journey: Once you click a link and leave Teacup Riot, we cannot control what happens on that other site (their rules, their content, their policies). Browse wisely, friend.

7. The Age Requirement

This site is meant for folks who are 13 and older. If you're younger, we're happy you stopped by, but please stick to browsing with a parent or guardian.

8. What We Are NOT (Liability)

We are humans, not robots. We pour effort into keeping everything accurate and safe, but we can make mistakes.

• Your Judgment: We are not liable for any loss, injury, or damage that comes from using the information here. You are responsible for your decisions.

9. Terms Might Change (We Evolve)

Like everything else, these rules might change as the site grows or as laws change.

• Staying Current: We'll update the date at the top. Staying on the site means you agree to the current version. Check back now and then, we'll keep the kettle on.

That's The Policy. Let's Chat.

We put a lot of care into this, but we're not legal robots. If you've still got questions, a worry, or just need to share a weird dream, don't hesitate to break the quiet.
