Terms & Conditions
Last updated October 2023. Plain language first, legal precision where it counts.
1. What this site is
Driftwood Dispatch publishes trail guides, travel stories and outdoor advice, and sells a small range of trail-tested goods through its outfitter shop. Content here is written from personal experience; it is guidance, not a substitute for local advice, weather forecasts or professional instruction.
2. Using our stories outdoors
Routes, conditions and opening hours change. Check local sources before you set out, carry appropriate gear, and never rely on a single story for navigation or safety decisions. You walk every route at your own risk.
3. The shop
Prices are shown in US dollars and include applicable taxes where required. Physical goods ship within two business days; digital goods are delivered instantly after payment. Unmarked physical goods may be returned within 30 days for a full refund. Payment is processed securely through our checkout provider — we never see or store your card details.
4. Newsletter
Subscribing adds you to one monthly dispatch. Every email carries an unsubscribe link, and unsubscribing takes effect immediately. We never sell subscriber data.
5. Intellectual property
Stories, photographs and design on this site belong to Driftwood Dispatch unless credited otherwise. You may quote brief passages with attribution and a link; republishing full stories or photographs requires written permission.
6. Contact
