Effective Date: May 12, 2026
Welcome to OlympicWineries.com. These Terms of Service explain the rules for using our website, content, event listings, winery listings, travel guides, and related services.
By using OlympicWineries.com, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the website.
1. About OlympicWineries.com
OlympicWineries.com provides information about wineries, tasting rooms, vineyards, wine shops, wine bars, local events, lodging, food, and travel on and around the Olympic Peninsula.
We are an informational website. Unless clearly stated otherwise, we do not own, operate, manage, or control the wineries, tasting rooms, hotels, restaurants, event venues, ferries, parks, or businesses listed on the website.
2. Adult Wine Content
Our website includes content about wine, wineries, tasting rooms, cideries, wine bars, and alcohol-related events. You must be at least 21 years old to use alcohol-related parts of the website if you are in the United States.
If you are outside the United States, you are responsible for following the legal drinking age and alcohol laws where you live or travel.
3. Responsible Use
We encourage responsible, moderate, and lawful wine tasting. Do not drink and drive. Use a designated driver, rideshare, taxi, public transportation, lodging within walking distance, or a guided tour when needed.
Nothing on this website encourages heavy drinking, unsafe travel, or unlawful alcohol use.
4. Website Information May Change
We work to provide accurate and helpful information, but business details can change quickly. Hours, tasting fees, reservation rules, menus, event dates, ferry schedules, road conditions, lodging policies, and availability may change without notice.
You should confirm important details directly with the winery, tasting room, event organizer, hotel, restaurant, ferry system, park agency, or other official source before making plans.
5. No Alcohol Sales by Us
OlympicWineries.com does not sell alcohol through the website unless a page clearly states otherwise. Links to wineries, shops, event pages, or ticketing services are provided for convenience.
Any purchase, reservation, tasting, event ticket, shipping order, or age verification is handled by the third-party business or service provider, not by OlympicWineries.com.
6. Third-Party Links and Services
Our website may link to winery websites, event pages, tourism sites, hotel sites, ferry pages, maps, ticketing platforms, affiliate partners, and other third-party websites.
We are not responsible for third-party websites, prices, policies, availability, content, security, or customer service. Your use of any third-party website is at your own risk and is governed by that website’s own terms and policies.
7. Sponsored Content, Ads, and Affiliate Links
Some pages may include sponsored content, advertising, affiliate links, paid listings, or other business relationships. When required, we will try to disclose those relationships clearly and near the related content.
Paid relationships do not guarantee a positive review, ranking, or recommendation unless clearly stated. We aim to keep our content useful, fair, and clear for readers.
8. Directory Listings and Business Information
We may publish listings for wineries, tasting rooms, wine bars, lodging, restaurants, attractions, and events. A listing does not mean we endorse, guarantee, or certify the business.
If you submit or update a business listing, you confirm that the information is accurate and that you have the right to provide it. We may edit, decline, update, or remove listings at our discretion.
9. Event Listings
Event listings are provided for planning purposes only. Event dates, times, prices, age rules, locations, and ticket availability may change.
Always check the official event page before attending. We are not responsible for canceled events, sold-out tickets, weather issues, travel delays, schedule changes, or event organizer decisions.
10. User Submissions
If you submit comments, photos, reviews, listing updates, event details, messages, or other content to us, you are responsible for what you submit.
You agree not to submit content that is false, misleading, unlawful, harmful, threatening, abusive, defamatory, obscene, discriminatory, spam, infringing, or invasive of someone else’s privacy.
By submitting content, you give OlympicWineries.com permission to use, edit, publish, display, distribute, and promote that content in connection with the website and related channels. You still own your content, but you give us a non-exclusive license to use it.
11. Intellectual Property
Unless otherwise stated, the text, design, graphics, logos, layout, photos, guides, directories, and other content on OlympicWineries.com are owned by us or used with permission.
You may read, share, and link to our public pages for personal and informational use. You may not copy, republish, scrape, sell, or reuse our content in bulk without written permission.
12. Acceptable Use
You agree to use OlympicWineries.com only for lawful purposes. You may not interfere with the website, attempt to access private systems, upload malicious code, scrape large amounts of data, impersonate another person, or use the website in a way that harms us or others.
13. Travel, Health, and Safety
Our content is for general travel planning. It is not legal, medical, safety, transportation, or professional advice.
You are responsible for your own travel choices, alcohol use, transportation, health needs, weather planning, lodging choices, and compliance with local laws.
