Effective Date: [27/12/2025]

Welcome to Explore Austin TX. We’re glad you’re here to discover the best of our city. By sticking around and using our site, you’re letting us know you’re cool with these basic guidelines.

1. Our Content is for Info Only

We love Austin and we do our best to keep this site accurate. However, businesses close, hours change, and events get rescheduled. Think of our guides as a helpful starting point, not a legal guarantee. Always double-check with a venue before heading out across town.

2. Respect Our Work

We spend a lot of time exploring, photographing, and writing about Austin. Everything you see here—text, photos, and design—belongs to Explore Austin TX.

• Do: Feel free to share links to our articles with friends or on social media.
• Don’t: Copy-paste our full articles or use our photos for your own commercial projects without asking us first.

3. User Comments

We want our community to be helpful. If you leave a comment or review, keep it respectful. We don’t allow hate speech, spam, or fake reviews. We reserve the right to delete any post that doesn’t vibe with a friendly community.

4. Affiliate Links & Support

To keep this site free, we sometimes use affiliate links. If you book a hotel or buy a tour through our links, we might earn a small commission. This doesn’t change the price for you, and we only recommend things we actually think are cool.

5. Your Safety & Decisions

Exploring a city involves some risk. Whether you’re hiking the Greenbelt or checking out a new neighborhood, you are responsible for your own safety. Explore Austin TX is not liable for any issues, injuries, or financial decisions (like buying a home) that happen after reading our site.

6. External Links

We link to many local Austin businesses. Once you click away from our site, their rules apply, not ours. We aren’t responsible for what happens on other websites.

7. Changes to These Rules

As the site grows, we might update these terms. We’ll post the “Effective Date” at the top so you know when things changed.

8. Legal Home Base

Since we are based in Texas, any legal disagreements will be handled right here in Austin, TX, under Texas law.
