What we publish
We publish editorial event listings, guides, and recommendations covering Long Island lifestyle. All editorial content is curated by The Editors.

Always verify event details with the venue or organizer before making plans.

What you can't do
- Scrape, copy, or republish our content in bulk without permission

- The event is real and accurate to the best of your knowledge
- You have the right to publish the details and images submitted
- The event complies with applicable law

We reserve the right to edit, decline, or unpublish any submission at our editorial discretion.
Tickets, prices, and third-party links
We frequently link to Eventbrite, Ticketmaster, StubHub, SeatGeek, and other ticketing platforms. We are not the ticket seller. Your purchase is with the third party under their terms. We do not refund, exchange, or guarantee any third-party ticket. Some of these links are affiliate links — see our Affiliate Disclosure.
Event accuracy + cancellation
Event details on This Long Island are editorial — they reflect what the organizer told the public at a given time. Events get postponed, rescheduled, cancelled, or moved without notice. We are not liable for any costs or losses caused by relying on event details posted here. Always verify with the venue or organizer before traveling, buying tickets, or making plans.
User accounts (when applicable)
Phase 0 (now): We do not require user accounts. Newsletter subscriptions are managed via your email subscription record.
Phase 1+: If we add user accounts, you'll be responsible for keeping your password secure and your information current. You may delete your account at any time.
Disclaimers
The site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We don't warrant that the site will be uninterrupted, error-free, or 100% accurate. We don't warrant that any event will occur as described. We are not responsible for the actions, content, or accuracy of third-party venues, organizers, or ticket sellers.
Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Wolfe Services LLC will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of the site. Our total liability for any claim relating to the site will not exceed $100 USD.
Indemnification
If your use of the site causes a third party to bring a claim against us, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold us harmless from that claim. This applies particularly to event submissions that turn out to be false, infringing, or harmful.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New York. Any disputes will be heard in the state or federal courts located in Suffolk County, New York.
Changes
We may update these terms at any time. The "Last updated" date reflects the most recent change. Continued use of the site after a change constitutes acceptance of the new terms. Substantive changes will be announced in the newsletter.
