Sponsorship terms
Effective Oct 22, 2026. These terms add to the site's terms of use.
A sponsorship is a paid, labelled placement on Dump Nearby, sold by Luna Directories ("we"). What each product includes and costs is on the sponsorship page.
Billing
- Sponsorships are subscriptions billed in advance, monthly or yearly, by card through Stripe. We never see or store your card number.
- Prices are those shown at checkout. If we change a price, the change applies from your next renewal and we tell you by email at least 30 days before.
- Stripe emails your receipt for every payment.
Cancellation
You can cancel any time, without asking us, from the Stripe customer portal. Your placement stays up until the end of the period you have paid for and then comes off the site automatically. There is no minimum term and no cancellation fee.
Refunds
If you cancel part way through a period, email [email protected] and we refund the unused part, pro rata by day. If we remove a placement under the rules below, or a slot turns out to be full after you paid, we refund the unused part without being asked.
Content rules
- The business must serve the city it sponsors.
- Plain text only: business name, one line of up to 160 characters, phone and website. No prices we cannot verify, no "best" or "#1" claims, no claims about any facility.
- The website must be the business's own, load over HTTPS and match the business name.
- We remove a card that breaks these rules, misleads readers or stops working, and refund the unused part of the period.
What sponsorship does not buy
- Facility order, hours, fees, accepted materials and every other fact on the site stay exactly the same whether or not anyone pays.
- Sponsors are never listed as facilities, never appear in our facility tables, and never appear in the structured data search engines read for facility pages.
- Every sponsor card says Sponsored. Its link is marked as a paid link (rel="sponsored").
- Facility operators cannot pay to rank higher, to hide a listing or to change how one is described.
Review and removal
Every new placement is checked automatically (the website loads over HTTPS, the phone number is valid, the slot exists and is not full, no blocked words) before it goes live, and may be reviewed by a person at any time. We may decline or remove a placement that breaks these rules, misleads readers, links to a site that stops working or changes owner, or that we cannot keep up for legal reasons. If we do, we tell you by email and refund the unused part. To change your text, logo or link, use the contact page.
Labels and disclosure
Every placement is labelled as sponsored and its links carry rel="sponsored". We describe sponsorships in our advertising disclosure.
Liability
We do not guarantee any number of views, clicks, calls or customers. Our total liability for a sponsorship is limited to what you paid for it in the last 12 months. The governing law is the one in the site's terms of use (the Commonwealth of Virginia, USA).
