Legal & Safety

Effective: October 23, 2026

CliffsList is owned and operated by Lerner Ventures, Inc. ("we," "us," or "our"). These Terms cover cliffslist.fun and our related apps and services. By creating an account, signing in, or using CliffsList, you agree to these Terms (including our Safety & Community Guidelines) and our Privacy Policy. If you disagree, do not use the service.

Two things to know up front: the events you see come from other people's data, and a lot of what CliffsList does runs on third-party AI. We don't put on events ourselves. Treat what you see here as a starting point, not a guarantee.

CliffsList is early software. Features break, change, or disappear. Use it knowing that.

We don't run the events

CliffsList is a discovery app. You can browse listings, save plans, and (where we offer it) connect with other people. We are not the organizer, the venue, the ticket seller, or the host. We don't staff events, sell tickets, or supervise what happens when you show up. We have no agency or employment relationship with organizers, venues, or ticket sellers.

Seeing something in CliffsList — a listing, a map pin, a search hit, a collection, a For You card, an Ask answer, an AI suggestion — is not our endorsement that you should go, that the event is safe, or that we stand behind it. Names and logos belong to their owners. Appearance of a third-party mark does not mean affiliation or sponsorship.

If you buy a ticket, book a table, or get turned away at the door, that is between you and them. Same for refunds, cancellations, age rules, and accessibility. We are not a party to those deals and we are not responsible when they go wrong.

Event data comes from elsewhere

Listings come from third parties — organizers, venues, ticketing and listing sites, public information, and other outside sources. We didn't create those events. We don't control whether they sell out, move, get cancelled, or disappear from CliffsList without notice.

We show that material so you can discover it. We don't hand-check every date, address, price, or age limit. Details can be wrong, stale, or missing. An event in CliffsList might not be real, open, legal where you live, or safe to attend.

Before you pay or travel, confirm with the organizer or venue. You decide what to trust.

AI does a lot of the work

Search, voice search, ranking, recommendations, Ask, and other product features lean on AI — including third-party AI providers we don't operate ourselves. Which providers we use can change.

When you use those features, what you type or say (and enough related context to run the feature) can go to those AI companies. Event listing text we process for the product can go there too. See the Privacy Policy.

AI output can be wrong, invented, biased, or weird. A suggestion is not a verified fact and not advice. Check anything that matters. We aren't liable for choices you make off AI output or off third-party listings.

Maps, reminders, and offline

Maps, place suggestions, and directions may use Google or other map providers. We don't warrant the route, the pin, traffic, or that going there is safe.

Push notifications, email digests, and saved-event reminders are best effort. They can be late, wrong, duplicated, or never arrive. A reminder is not a promise you'll make the event. Delivery through Apple, Google, or email providers is outside our control.

If you install the app or use offline saved events, local copies can be stale or incomplete. Logout or account switch can wipe device data. We don't promise offline access forever.

Your risk if you go or meet people

Live events and meeting people carry risk — illness, injury, disability, property loss, or death included. By choosing to attend, travel to or from, or meet anyone you found through CliffsList, you voluntarily assume those risks.

We don't verify anyone's identity, age, background, intentions, or safety. CliffsList is not 911. Interactions with other users, organizers, and venues — online or in person — are your responsibility.

Accounts and conduct

You must be 18 or older and able to agree to these Terms. Your account is personal and not transferable. Keep it secure; tell us if you think someone else got in.

Don't harass, stalk, scam, impersonate, steal content, leak someone's private info, break into the product, or use CliffsList for anything illegal. The Safety & Community Guidelines apply too.

Don't scrape, crawl, bulk-download, or use automated tools to extract our catalogue, user data, or other content for any purpose we haven't allowed in writing. Don't reverse engineer, copy, resell, or commercially reuse CliffsList listings or materials outside normal personal use of the app. Don't misuse our name or branding.

You upload photos and posts at your own risk. If you show someone's face or private info, you promise you have the right to do that.

Messages and feed posts are not end-to-end private. We and our vendors may process them to deliver the product, fight abuse, and meet legal duties. We don't have to read every post or message, and moderating one thing doesn't mean we police everything.

We may refuse service, remove content, or suspend or delete your account at any time, with or without notice, for any reason or no reason, as the law allows — including abuse, security risk, or operational needs. We don't owe you a refund or continued access (CliffsList is free unless we say otherwise for a specific paid feature).

Your content, feedback, and our stuff

Your content stays yours. You promise you have the rights to post it. You give Lerner Ventures, Inc. a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable license to host, store, copy, adapt, publish, publicly display and perform, distribute, create derivative works from, and otherwise use that content to run, secure, improve, promote, and commercialize CliffsList — and to let vendors and successors do the same. You waive moral rights to the extent the law allows. Content may remain on the service after you leave. We have no duty to store or return your content; keep your own copies of anything that matters.

If you send us ideas, comments, ratings, or other feedback, it's non-confidential. You give us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use it for any purpose without paying you or crediting you.

Our software, design, branding, databases, and materials are ours or our licensors'. We grant you a limited, personal, non-transferable, revocable license to use CliffsList as we provide it — nothing more. We can change, suspend, or shut down features or the whole service at any time. We don't promise uptime, backups, or that anything you save will be there forever.

We use a lot of vendors: hosting, databases, login, email, maps, analytics, AI, push, and more. Each has its own terms. We don't control their outages or how they handle data beyond what the law requires of us.

No warranties

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, CLIFFSLIST IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH NO WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND — EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY — INCLUDING ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY, MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT LISTINGS, MAPS, SEARCH, AI OUTPUT, REMINDERS, OFFLINE DATA, COLLECTIONS, OR USER CONTENT ARE CORRECT, COMPLETE, CURRENT, OR SAFE.

Release, indemnity, and limits on liability

In these Terms, "CliffsList Parties" means Lerner Ventures, Inc. and its affiliates, officers, directors, owners, employees, contractors, agents, licensors, and vendors.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, you release the CliffsList Parties from claims, demands, and damages of every kind, known and unknown, arising out of or connected with: disputes or transactions with organizers, venues, ticket sellers, or other third parties; interactions with other users; travel to or from any event or meetup; attendance at or exclusion from any event; and the acts or omissions of anyone you meet through CliffsList.

If you live in California, you waive California Civil Code §1542 and any similar law, which says a general release does not extend to claims you don't know or suspect exist at the time of the release that would have materially affected your settlement. You intend this release to cover those claims too, as far as the law allows.

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the CliffsList Parties from third-party claims and related costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of CliffsList, your content, your breach of these Terms, or your unlawful conduct — except to the extent caused by our own legally actionable conduct.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE CLIFFSLIST PARTIES ARE NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY — INCLUDING DAMAGES FROM OUR NEGLIGENCE TO THE EXTENT THE LAW ALLOWS THAT LIMIT.

TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS IS CAPPED AT THE GREATER OF US $100 OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US FOR CLIFFSLIST IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM.

That covers bad listings, cancelled events, AI mistakes, missed reminders, map errors, other companies, other users, getting hurt at something you attended, property loss, and any legal theory — except where the law won't let us limit liability (for example fraud, or death or personal injury from negligence where that can't be waived). Nothing here takes away rights you can't waive.

Disputes

Email support@cliffslist.fun before filing a claim. Contacting us does not create a duty to resolve the issue or delay arbitration or court. Either of us can still use small-claims court in New York County, New York, or a U.S. county where you live or work, when it fits.

Where it's allowed, other disputes go to individual binding arbitration with the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. Jury trials and class or representative actions are waived only as far as the law allows. You can still talk to a regulator. If arbitration can't apply, court is fine.

Exception: either of us may go to court in New York County, New York for injunctive or other equitable relief to protect intellectual property, the catalogue, or unauthorized use of CliffsList, without waiting on arbitration.

New York law applies unless mandatory local law says otherwise. Court cases that aren't in small claims go in New York County, New York, unless consumer law gives you somewhere else. If one piece of these Terms fails, the rest still stands.

Changes and contact

We may update these Terms. If you keep using CliffsList after an update, you're accepting the new version — unless the law says we need a different kind of notice or consent. Bits meant to last after you leave (licenses, releases, disclaimers, liability caps, indemnities, dispute terms) still apply.
