The rules for using nygrid. By using the site, you agree to them.
About these terms
nygrid (nygrid.coffee) is run by Filter. These terms apply whenever you use the site. If you don’t agree with them, please don’t use it.
What the guide is
nygrid is a free, independent guide to speciality coffee in New York. Our Picks and other selections are our own editorial opinion. Shops don’t pay to be listed or chosen.
Accuracy of information
We work to keep opening hours, addresses, menus, beans, events and other details accurate, but shops change and we can’t guarantee that everything is correct, complete or current.
Please check with a shop directly before making a special trip, especially around public and religious holidays. If you spot something wrong, use “Have we got something wrong?” on the shop’s page, or email us, and we’ll fix it.
Maps and directions
Maps, distances and walking or transit times are estimates. Directions open in a third-party app such as Apple Maps, Google Maps or Citymapper, which is covered by its own terms. Take care and follow local rules when travelling.
Using the site
You’re welcome to browse, share links and use the guide for your own personal, non-commercial purposes. Please don’t:
- copy, scrape or republish the listings, write-ups or photos in bulk, or use them to build a competing product or train AI models
- interfere with the site, its security or its infrastructure, or try to access it by automated means other than ordinary search engine crawling
- use our content API (api.filter.coffee) for anything other than the site and our apps, call it in bulk, or try to get around its limits
- use the site for anything unlawful
Content and trademarks
The nygrid name, logo, design, write-ups and our own photography belong to Filter or our licensors. Shop names, logos and photos belong to their owners and appear here to identify them. Map data is © Mapbox and © OpenStreetMap contributors.
Our write-ups carry marks that identify them as ours, so we can recognise them if they’re copied elsewhere.
If you believe something on the site infringes your rights, email [email protected] and we’ll look into it promptly.
Links to other sites
We link to shops’ websites, social media and maps apps. We don’t control those sites and aren’t responsible for their content, products or privacy practices.
Promotions
Promotions on nygrid are run by the shops that offer them, not by Filter. Each one is at the shop’s discretion: the shop sets its terms and can change or end it at any time, without notice, including before any end date shown. We only show promotions and aren’t responsible for honouring them, so check the details with the shop.
If you run a promotion for your shop, it’s yours to offer: you can change it or stop it at any time, and you’re responsible for what it says and for honouring it while it’s on. We may switch off a promotion that breaks these terms or the Acceptable Use Policy.
Availability
The site is provided free and “as is”. We may change, pause or withdraw any part of it at any time, and we don’t promise it will always be available or free of errors.
Our liability
Nothing in these terms limits liability that can’t be limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud.
Otherwise, to the extent the law allows, we aren’t liable for any loss arising from your use of the site or your reliance on its information, including a wasted journey to a shop that has closed or changed its hours. We are also not responsible for the products, service or premises of any shop listed.
If you use the site as a consumer, you keep all the rights the law gives you.
Your Filter account
You don’t need an account to use nygrid. If you create one, it’s a Filter account, run by Filter, and the same account works in every Filter guide and app. You must be at least 13.
Keep access to your Apple, Google or email account secure: whoever can sign in to it can use your Filter account. You’re responsible for what’s done with your account, and it must follow our Acceptable Use Policy.
You can delete your account at any time from your account page. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or the Acceptable Use Policy.
What you add
What you add stays yours. You give us permission to store it and show it to you in our guides and apps. For updates you suggest and changes you send as a shop owner, you also give us permission to use the information in the guide, edited by us as we see fit.
Privacy
Our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy explain what data the site collects and how we use it.
Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. The date at the top shows when they last changed. Using the site after a change means you accept the updated terms.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. If you live elsewhere, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of your country, and you can bring a claim in your local courts.
