Terms of Service

We Roast Everyone Equally. Here's the Fine Print.

Effective Date: March 17, 2026 · Last Updated: March 24, 2026

Company: Roaststation LLC · Contact: info@roaststation.com

1. Introduction

Welcome to Roast Station (“we,” “us,” “our,” or “RS”). By accessing or using roaststation.com (the “Site”), subscribing to any of our tiers, or purchasing any digital products or merchandise, you (“you” or “User”) agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”).

If you don't agree with these Terms, that's cool — but you'll need to close the tab. If you continue using the Site, you agree to everything below.

2. What Roast Station Is (And Isn't)

2.1 We Are Satire. Full Stop.

Roast Station is a satirical comedy news media platform. Every piece of content published on this Site is satire, parody, and/or comedy commentary.

  • We are not a news organization. We do not report facts. We roast them.
  • Our content is not factual reporting. It is fictional, exaggerated, and comedic by design.
  • Nothing published here should be taken as a statement of fact about any real person, company, event, or situation.
  • We are entertainment. Not journalism, not financial advice, not legal counsel.

2.2 Satire is Protected Speech

Our content is protected under the First Amendment and the doctrine of fair use as established under 17 U.S.C. § 107. Satire and parody of public figures acting in their public capacity is a cornerstone of American free expression. In the fair use analysis, the transformative nature of satirical use is the most heavily weighted factor — courts have consistently recognized that commentary and parody adding new meaning and comedic context serves a distinct social function protected by the First Amendment.

2.3 No Defamation Intent

Roast Station has no intent to defame any individual or organization. Our sole purpose is comedy commentary. If a story sounds too outrageous to be real — that's the point.

3. Eligibility & Age Requirements

You must be at least 13 years old to access the Site or create an account. You must be 18 years or older to access Unhinged-tier content containing explicit language and mature themes.

By creating an account, you certify that you are at least 13 years old. By upgrading to, subscribing to, or accessing Unhinged-tier content, you certify that you are at least 18 years old. We rely on this self-certification, including confirmations presented during account creation and at the point of access or upgrade for age-restricted content.

4. User Conduct

You agree not to: harass, bully, or threaten others; post defamatory or fraudulent content; engage in hate speech; doxx anyone; impersonate others; spam; violate applicable laws; or attempt to hack the Site.

Content you submit grants us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual, sublicensable license to use it in connection with operating the Site. You retain ownership. This license survives account deletion.

5. Subscriptions, Billing & Cancellation

We offer Free, Vulgar, and Unhinged tiers. Payments are processed through Stripe. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled. Cancel anytime with one click — no penalties, no drama.

Refunds: Monthly — no refunds for current period. Annual — prorated refunds within 30 days of renewal. Contact info@roaststation.com.

6. Third-Party Advertising

7. Intellectual Property

12. Force Majeure

Roaststation LLC is not liable for any failure or delay in providing the Service resulting from circumstances beyond our reasonable control, including but not limited to: hosting or infrastructure outages, DDoS attacks, third-party API failures, natural disasters, acts of government, internet disruptions, power failures, or any other event outside our direct control. We will make reasonable efforts to restore service as quickly as possible.

13. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

Governed by the laws of the State of New York. Before filing any legal action, both parties agree to attempt informal resolution via email for at least 30 days. If that fails, disputes shall be resolved by binding arbitration under AAA Consumer Arbitration Rules in New York, NY. Either party may bring qualifying claims in small claims court. Class action waiver applies.
