Restaurant Partner Terms

Last updated: June 6, 2026

These Restaurant Partner Terms apply when you claim, manage, pay for, advertise, or use Hungry8 on behalf of a restaurant, food truck, bar, cafe, brand, company, franchise, or other business. They supplement the Hungry8 Terms of Service. If there is a conflict, these Restaurant Partner Terms control for business and restaurant-owner features.

Hungry8 is operated by Whistling in the Dark Ventures LLC DBA Hungry8. Business notice address: Whistling in the Dark Ventures LLC DBA Hungry8, 1309 Coffeen Avenue STE 20011, Sheridan, WY 82801. Business email: shannon.kiser@hungry8.com. Business phone: (270) 319-0611.

If you use Hungry8 for a business, you confirm that you are authorized to act for that business and to bind it to these terms.

1. Claims and Verification

Hungry8 may allow businesses to claim listings and access owner tools. We may require business email verification, phone verification, documents, payment records, manual review, public listing checks, or other proof of authority. Submitting a claim does not guarantee approval.

We may approve, reject, suspend, revoke, transfer, or re-review claims to protect users, businesses, and platform integrity. You must keep business information accurate and promptly tell us if your authority changes.

2. Listing Information

You are responsible for information you submit or approve, including names, addresses, hours, menus, photos, links, descriptions, offers, dietary claims, ordering links, and contact details. You must have rights to use the content you upload and must not submit misleading, infringing, unsafe, illegal, or deceptive information.

Dietary, allergen, ingredient, nutrition, and food safety claims must be accurate and verifiable. Hungry8 is not responsible for your food preparation, ingredient handling, menu accuracy, pricing, service, or customer experience.

3. Plans, Subscriptions, and Billing

Hungry8 may offer free plans, paid subscriptions, add-ons, points packages, setup services, sponsored placements, SMS or email tools, analytics, automation, and other business features. Prices, billing periods, included features, usage limits, renewal terms, and taxes are shown at checkout, on invoices, in the portal, or in an order form.

Unless stated otherwise at purchase, subscriptions renew automatically until canceled. You authorize us and our payment processors to charge your payment method for recurring fees, one-time fees, usage charges, overages, taxes, and other amounts you approve or incur.

4. Cancellation, Refunds, and Plan Changes

You may cancel future subscription renewals through the available billing flow or by contacting support. Cancellation generally stops future renewal charges but does not automatically refund past charges, setup fees, used services, points packages, SMS/email usage, or partially used billing periods.

If you upgrade, downgrade, cancel, fail payment, or lose claim access, some features may change or stop. Hungry8 may change plan features or prices with notice where required.

5. Points Packages and Rewards

Restaurant-funded points are promotional marketing credits used to encourage discovery, verified visits, reviews, photos, or other eligible actions. Points packages are not bank deposits, cash, stored value, gift cards, or refundable balances unless expressly stated at purchase.

Unused restaurant point balances may expire, be limited by campaign rules, or become unavailable if your plan ends, your account is suspended, payment fails, or a campaign is discontinued. You may not condition user rewards on positive reviews or any required review sentiment. See the Rewards Policy for more detail.

6. Reviews and Customer Communications

You may not create fake reviews, buy positive or negative reviews, suppress honest negative reviews through threats or intimidation, impersonate customers, or use Hungry8 to mislead users. Any request for reviews must allow honest feedback and must not require a particular rating or sentiment.

If Hungry8 provides email, SMS, CRM, or automation tools, you are responsible for using them lawfully, including consent, opt-out, message content, frequency, and industry-specific compliance. We may restrict messaging features that create legal, deliverability, reputation, or user-trust risk.

7. Advertising and Sponsored Placement

Paid plans or placements may improve visibility, unlock tools, or make a listing eligible for promoted surfaces. Hungry8 does not guarantee a specific number of views, visits, customers, orders, reviews, followers, revenue, or return on investment.

8. Third-Party Services

Restaurant tools may rely on third-party services such as payment processors, CRM tools, SMS/email providers, hosting providers, analytics, maps, ordering links, social platforms, gift card providers, and restaurant data providers. Third-party services may have their own terms, fees, availability limits, and compliance requirements.

9. Access, Teams, and Security

You are responsible for team members, account access, permissions, passwords, devices, and activity under your restaurant account. Only invite authorized people. Tell us promptly if someone leaves your business or accesses your account without permission.

10. Suspension and Termination

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate restaurant features, claims, listings, subscriptions, campaigns, points, or access if we believe there is fraud, payment failure, misuse, legal risk, inaccurate ownership, unsafe content, user harm, violation of terms, or platform abuse.

11. Data and Analytics

Restaurant analytics are estimates based on available signals and may be incomplete, delayed, sampled, or affected by privacy settings, technical limits, user behavior, and third-party systems. Do not treat analytics as audited financial, tax, legal, or accounting records.

12. Indemnity

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Hungry8, Whistling in the Dark Ventures LLC DBA Hungry8, and their owners, employees, contractors, service providers, and partners from claims arising from your restaurant, listings, claims, content, offers, food, services, customer communications, rewards, legal compliance, payment obligations, or violation of these terms.
