Terms of Service

Terms of Service

Effective date: May 28, 2026

Introduction and acceptance

These Terms of Service are the agreement between you and Brews and Bloom, a small tarot reading room and shop operated by Dylan W. LaRue in the United States. By using the site at brews-and-bloom.com, browsing the shop, booking a reading, requesting an instant reading or dream interpretation, signing up for the newsletter, or using the free tools, you agree to these terms.

If you don't agree, please don't use the site. If you partly agree, write to us at dylan@brews-and-bloom.com with your concerns and we'll do our best to make sense of it.

We may update these terms over time. The current version always lives at brews-and-bloom.com/terms, and the Effective date at the top tells you when it last changed.

About this service

Brews and Bloom is part reading room, part shop. We offer:

• Tarot readings in three forms, instant readings, live readings with Dylan over Google Meet, and group or event readings for parties, weddings, and retreats.
• Dream interpretations, composed in Dylan's voice.
• A deck shop selling our own tarot and oracle decks, each printed to order.
• Free tools, the card library, spreads, the Mystic Cards constellation generator, the I Ching, runes, birth chart drawing, and other small companions to a reflective practice.

The free tools are offered as-is for personal, non-commercial use. The paid services are offered under the additional rules in the sections below.

Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old to purchase anything on the site, a reading, a dream interpretation, a deck. By placing an order or booking a session you confirm that you are 18 or older and have the legal capacity to enter this agreement.

Free tools may be used by anyone old enough to navigate the web safely, but the site is not designed for children, and we do not knowingly collect personal information from anyone under 13. See our Privacy Policy for more on that.

Accounts

Some features may require an account when accounts launch. If you create one:

• Give us accurate information when you sign up.
• Choose a password that is not used anywhere else.
• Keep your login credentials private. You are responsible for activity that happens through your account.
• Let us know if you suspect your account has been used by someone else, and we will help you secure it.

We may suspend or close accounts that are used to violate these terms, to harass other people, or to defraud the shop. If we close your account, we will tell you why where we can.

Purchases and payment

All payments are processed by Stripe, a third-party payment processor. When you check out, your payment information goes directly to Stripe under their security and privacy practices. We never see or store your card number. Google Pay is offered through Stripe as a payment method; the same applies there.

By placing an order you agree that:

• The card or account you use is yours, or you have permission to use it.
• The information you give us at checkout is accurate.
• Stripe's terms also apply to the payment portion of the transaction.

Prices on the site are in US dollars unless marked otherwise. We try to keep prices and inventory accurate; if something is listed in error (a wrong price, an item that's actually out of stock), we may cancel and refund the affected portion of an order and we'll write to let you know.

Sales tax is added at checkout where required. Shipping costs are calculated based on the destination and shown before you complete an order.

Booking live readings

Live readings with Dylan are scheduled through the site and take place over Google Meet. When you book, the calendar event and the Meet link are sent automatically to the email address you provided.

You agree that:

• You will join the session from a place where you can speak freely and won't be interrupted.
• You will not record the session, audio, video, or screen capture, without Dylan's written permission. The reading is a private conversation.
• You will be 18 or older.
• If you need to cancel or reschedule, you will follow the refund and rescheduling rules in our Refunds Policy.

Dylan reserves the right to end a session early if a client is abusive, intoxicated to the point of incoherence, or otherwise making the conversation unsafe. In that case the session is treated as completed and no refund is due.

Instant readings, what they are and aren't

An instant reading is written automatically by the site the moment you ask, the deck is shuffled, your cards are drawn, and an interpretation is composed in Dylan's voice using the same voice guide that shapes every piece of writing here. It is generated by software, not delivered live by a person.

These readings:

• Are reflective, not predictive. They describe the present and what's underneath it, not what will happen next.
• Are generated by software. Dylan has shaped the voice and tone; the words themselves are composed automatically.
• Are delivered as a private share-token URL.
• Are intended for entertainment and reflective practice. They are not a substitute for medical, psychological, legal, or financial advice. See the disclaimer section below.

A reading is considered delivered when the share-token URL is generated and the link sent or shown.

Dream interpretation, what it is and isn't

The instant dream interpretation service works the same way: you submit your dream text, the site composes an interpretation in Dylan's voice, and the result is delivered as a private share-token URL.

The interpretation is one possible reading of the symbols in your dream, written in a reflective voice. It is not psychological diagnosis, not medical advice, not a prediction. If your dreams are recurring, distressing, or interfering with your life, please consider speaking with a licensed mental health professional.

Shop products

We try to describe our decks and prints honestly, card counts, sizes, stock weights, finishes. Printed items vary a little: color shifts slightly between print runs and between your screen and paper. We treat reasonable variation as part of the goods being real, not as a defect.

Everything in the shop is printed to order, your copy is made after you order it, and typically ships in 2–3 weeks. Because each copy is made for you, returns are limited to damaged, defective, or misdescribed items. See the Refunds Policy for full details.

Intellectual property

Most of the writing on the site, card meanings, blog posts, instant readings, dream interpretations, product descriptions, this document, is created by or for Dylan and is © Brews and Bloom. You may quote short passages for personal, non-commercial use with attribution. You may not republish substantial portions, use the site's content to train machine-learning or automated models, or scrape the site for any commercial purpose without written permission.

Card art used in the site's tarot tools is licensed from its creators (where applicable), used under public-domain terms (for historic decks), or original work commissioned for Brews and Bloom. The license terms for each deck are noted on its detail page. Buying a reading does not transfer card-art rights to you.

Your instant reading or dream interpretation, once delivered, is yours to keep, share, print, journal with, tattoo, frame on the wall, it was written for you. We retain the right to use anonymized excerpts for training the site's own prompts or for marketing only with your explicit permission.

User-submitted content

If you submit a review, story, photo, testimonial, or other content to the site, for instance, a review of a deck or a photo of your deck at home, you grant Brews and Bloom a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display that content on the site and in related marketing (newsletters, social posts). You keep your copyright; we just need permission to show it.

Don't submit content that isn't yours, that contains private information about other people who haven't consented, or that violates the Prohibited uses section below. We may edit, decline, or remove submitted content at our discretion.

Prohibited uses

Don't use the site to:

• Harass, threaten, or harm another person.
• Submit dream text, reading questions, reviews, or any other content that contains personal information about a third party who has not consented.
• Attempt to break, scrape, overload, or reverse-engineer the site or its APIs.
• Resell instant readings, dream interpretations, or other digital goods as your own.
• Use the site's writing or art to train machine-learning or automated models without written permission.
• Use the site to commit fraud, money laundering, or any other illegal activity.

We may suspend or close access, with or without notice, for anyone who breaks these rules.

Disclaimers

Brews and Bloom is offered for entertainment and reflective practice. Tarot, dream interpretation, runes, the I Ching, birth charts, and the rest of the divinatory tools on the site are not a substitute for advice from a doctor, therapist, lawyer, financial professional, or any other qualified professional. They will not diagnose an illness, predict the future, or tell you what to do with your life. If you're in crisis or facing a serious decision, please talk to someone qualified to help.

The site is provided as-is and as-available. We try hard to keep it accurate and online, but we don't promise that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or perfectly secure. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

If you are in immediate danger to yourself or others, please contact your local emergency services. In the US you can call or text 988 for mental health crisis support.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Brews and Bloom, Dylan W. LaRue, and anyone who works on the site will not be liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising from your use of the site, lost profits, lost data, lost time, emotional distress, or anything like that. Our total liability to you for any claim arising out of these terms or your use of the site will not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose, or fifty US dollars, whichever is greater.

Some jurisdictions don't allow these limitations. In those places, the limitations apply to the maximum extent allowed and don't apply where the law forbids them.

Indemnification

You agree to defend and hold harmless Brews and Bloom, Dylan W. LaRue, and the people who help run the site from any claim, loss, or demand made by a third party arising from your breach of these terms or your misuse of the site. We will tell you promptly if a claim is made, and you may take part in the defense at your own expense.

Governing law and disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which Dylan is resident at the time the dispute arises, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Any dispute that cannot be resolved by writing to us first will be brought in the state or federal courts located in that state, and both you and we consent to the jurisdiction of those courts.

Before filing a formal claim, please write to dylan@brews-and-bloom.com with a clear description of the problem. We will read it, respond, and try in good faith to resolve it within thirty days.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms when the site changes meaningfully, new services, new payment processors, new product categories, changes to the law. When we do, the Effective date at the top of the page will change. If a change is significant, we will also email people on the newsletter or post a notice on the site. Your continued use of the site after the change takes effect counts as acceptance of the new terms.
