The site makes selective recommendations
Providence Guide is not a complete city directory. Inclusion, exclusion, and ordering reflect editorial judgment rather than marketplace completeness.
Terms
Terms for using Providence Guide
Providence Guide is an editorial travel publisher built to help travelers make better decisions. It does not replace direct verification with a business or venue before booking, visiting, or purchasing.
These terms describe the editorial scope, commercial boundary, user responsibility, and limits of the publisher's liability.
Plain-English Rule
Use the guide as guidance, not a guarantee
Last revised April 11, 2026. Facts are reviewed and freshness-scoped, but local business conditions can change. Always confirm time-sensitive details directly.
Partnerships do not equal editorial recommendation
Business claims, support requests, and founding-partner beta conversations do not guarantee guide inclusion, ranking, or endorsement.
Travel decisions remain yours
Providence Guide is a planning tool. Reservations, purchases, and destination choices remain the responsibility of the user.
Do not misuse the site, forms, or copied content
Users should not abuse publisher-operated forms, scrape the site for bulk republication, impersonate a business, or use the guide for fraudulent or harmful activity.
What The Site Is
An editorial guide, not a booking, venue, or review platform
Providence Guide publishes selective city-guide content. It is not the operator of the restaurants, hotels, venues, or external booking tools linked from the site.
Freshness reduces risk but cannot erase change
The publisher checks sources and keeps review windows, but menus, hours, staffing, pricing, event timing, and venue policies can still change after a page is published.
Bookings and purchases happen off-site
Reservations, ticket purchases, map routes, and hotel bookings usually happen through external sites or providers. Their terms and policies apply to those transactions.
The guide is selective by design
A missing business, district, event, or venue does not mean it was reviewed and rejected. It may simply sit outside the current editorial scope.
Business and User Boundaries
Correction requests are welcome, but they do not buy outcomes
The site accepts corrections, claim requests, and partnership inquiries, but those workflows do not override editorial judgment or create ranking guarantees.
Factual corrections can improve a public page
Businesses and readers can send factual corrections, source links, or missing next steps. Providence Guide may review and apply those changes without promising any particular recommendation or ranking outcome.
Operational contact does not change editorial rules
Ownership claims, support requests, or business review conversations do not create paid recommendation rights, preferred inclusion, or guaranteed indexation.
The publisher keeps control of the editorial guide
Site copy, layout, structured data, and selection logic remain part of the publisher's work. Do not republish large portions as if they were your own.
Liability and Changes
The guide tries to be useful, not to assume your travel risk
Use the guide to make better choices faster, but not as a warranty about a restaurant, hotel, transit move, or event outcome.
The publisher is not responsible for third-party outcomes
Providence Guide is not liable for booking failures, venue decisions, service problems, schedule changes, or losses caused by third-party providers or stale information that changed after review.
The site can change or pause without notice
Pages, routes, forms, and public coverage can change as the site evolves, coverage expands, or operational requirements change.
Material changes should be reflected by the revised date
Providence Guide may update these terms as the publisher workflow, trust pages, or commercial services change. Continued use of the site means you accept the then-current terms.
