Roaster Terms


Effective date: October 15, 2026

1. Scope and agreement

These Roaster Terms apply to any account registered as a roaster on MyCoffeeSettings, operated by NMN Investments, LLC, d/b/a MyCoffeeSettings ("MCS," "we," or "us"). They supplement the MCS Terms of Service, which also apply to you. Capitalized terms not defined here have the meanings given in the Terms of Service.

By registering a roaster account, you agree to these Roaster Terms on behalf of yourself and the roasting business you represent (the "Roastery"), and "you" includes both.

2. Roaster levels

Roaster accounts have two levels.

Level 1: Unofficial Roaster. Every roaster account starts at this level. Unofficial Roasters have limited access to the roaster dashboard and may upload their own coffees and settings. Those coffees and settings are public and are marked as unverified. Unofficial Roasters do not receive the Official checkmark, their settings are not labeled Roaster Recommended, they cannot create or schedule events, and they cannot claim coffee pages already on MCS. If one of your coffees was previously added by a user, the information you upload will not replace that existing entry.

Level 2: Official Roaster. After MCS completes the officializing process in section 3, your account becomes an Official Roaster. Official Roasters receive the Official checkmark on their name and settings, full access to the roaster dashboard, the ability to claim coffee pages under section 4, Roaster Recommended settings under section 5, and the ability to create events under section 6.

MCS may add, change, or remove dashboard features at either level.

3. Officializing and your representations

To become an Official Roaster, you must complete MCS's officializing process, which verifies (a) the identity of the person operating the account and (b) that the Roastery is a real business that roasts its own coffee. MCS may request documents such as a government-issued ID, business registration, and photos or other evidence of your roasting operation. MCS grants Official status at its sole discretion, case by case, and may decline any application. Verification documents are used only for this review and are deleted once a decision is made, unless the law requires us to keep them.

You represent and warrant that:

  1. you are authorized to act on behalf of the Roastery and to bind it to these Roaster Terms;
  2. all information you provide, during officializing and afterward, is true, accurate, and current, and you will update it if it changes;
  3. the Roastery roasts the coffees you list as its own; and
  4. you have the rights to all names, logos, photos, descriptions, and other materials you upload.

4. Coffee listings and claimed coffee pages

You are responsible for the accuracy of every coffee listing you create or manage, including origin, process, roast details, tasting notes, photos, and links to where the coffee is sold.

Official Roasters may claim a coffee page for a coffee the Roastery roasts, including a page originally created by a user. Once a claim is approved, your images and details become the official entry for that coffee. Claiming a page lets you edit its official details and add Roaster Recommended settings. It does not let you edit, hide, or remove settings, notes, or reviews posted by users; if you believe user content is inaccurate or violates our rules, report it and MCS will review it.

MCS may reject or reverse a claim, merge duplicate pages, or correct listing information at its discretion.

5. Roaster Recommended settings

Settings published by an Official Roaster for its own coffees are labeled Roaster Recommended. You agree that these settings reflect your good-faith suggestion of a starting point for brewing that coffee. Users are told that results vary with equipment and technique, and that neither MCS nor the roaster guarantees any result. You will not describe Roaster Recommended settings as a guarantee, and you will not publish settings for coffees the Roastery does not roast.

6. Events

Only Official Roasters may create events. For every event you list, you are the organizer and are solely responsible for it, including:

  • the accuracy of the listing (date, location, capacity, price, and program);
  • the venue, the safety of attendees, and compliance with laws that apply to the event, including permits, food and beverage rules, and accessibility;
  • any fees you charge, refunds, and cancellations; and
  • promptly notifying registrants and updating the listing if the event changes or is cancelled.

MCS is only a listing platform for your events. It does not organize, supervise, or insure them, and it is not a party to any arrangement between you and attendees. MCS may remove any event listing at its discretion. You are encouraged to carry appropriate general liability insurance for in-person events.

7. Attendee data and communications

When users register for your event, MCS shares with you the name and email address of each registrant for that event, along with registration and check-in status ("Attendee Data"). You receive Attendee Data for your own events only. With respect to Attendee Data, you are an independent business responsible for complying with all privacy, data protection, and anti-spam laws that apply to you. You agree that:

  1. Event use only, unless the attendee opts in. You may use Attendee Data only to manage the event, including confirmations, reminders, changes, check-in, and a single post-event follow-up about that event. You may send marketing (news, promotions, product launches, or future events) only to attendees who checked the separate, unchecked-by-default box at registration agreeing to receive news from your Roastery.
  2. Honor unsubscribes. Every marketing message must identify the Roastery, include your physical address, and offer a working unsubscribe option, which you will honor within 10 business days.
  3. No sale or sharing. You will not sell, rent, or disclose Attendee Data to any third party, except service providers that help you run the event or send permitted messages and that are bound to protect it.
  4. Security and deletion. You will keep Attendee Data reasonably secure, notify MCS promptly at info@mycoffeesettings.com of any unauthorized access, and delete Attendee Data for attendees who did not opt in to marketing within 12 months after the event.
  5. Mass communication tool. Messages sent through MCS's roaster messaging tools are subject to these rules and the Community Guidelines. MCS may limit, review, or block messages that appear to be spam or abusive.

If you misuse Attendee Data, MCS may suspend your event privileges, revoke Official status, or terminate your account.

8. License to MCS

You grant MCS a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license, for as long as you have a roaster account and for a reasonable wind-down period afterward, to use, reproduce, display, and distribute the Roastery's name, logos, trademarks, coffee photos, and descriptions ("Roaster Materials"):

  1. in the Service, including roaster pages, coffee pages, settings, and event listings; and
  2. in MCS's own marketing, social media, and promotional materials, to identify the Roastery as part of the MCS community.

MCS will not alter your logos except for resizing or formatting, and will not suggest that the Roastery endorses anything it has not endorsed. You may ask us at any time to stop using Roaster Materials in new marketing, and we will honor that request for future materials. You keep all rights in Roaster Materials. The license in section 5 of the Terms of Service also applies to content you post.

9. Roaster conduct

In addition to the Acceptable Use rules in the Terms of Service, you will not:

  • claim, or ask users to report, coffees that the Roastery does not roast;
  • post settings, reviews, or votes on competitors' coffees in order to mislead, or manipulate ratings for your own coffees, including through other accounts;
  • misrepresent your Official status or use the Official checkmark or MCS's name outside the Service without our written permission;
  • offer users anything of value in exchange for votes, ratings, or reviews; or
  • use the Service or Attendee Data to contact users who have not opted in to hear from you, except as section 7 permits.

10. Status changes, suspension, and termination

MCS may, at its discretion and at any time, revoke Official status and return an account to Level 1, remove roaster status entirely, suspend event or messaging privileges, or terminate a roaster account, including where the Roastery no longer roasts its own coffee, information provided proves inaccurate, or these Roaster Terms are breached. Where practical, MCS will give notice and a reason.

If Official status is revoked, the Official checkmark and Roaster Recommended labels are removed, existing events may be cancelled or delisted, and claimed coffee pages may revert to community entries. Sections 7 (as to Attendee Data you already received), 8 (wind-down), and 12 survive.

11. Fees

Roaster accounts, at both levels, are currently free. MCS may introduce paid features or plans in the future. We will give at least 30 days' notice before any fee applies to you, and no fee will be charged unless you agree to it.

12. Indemnification and relationship to the Terms of Service

In addition to your obligations under section 16 of the Terms of Service, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless MCS from any claims arising out of (a) events you organize, (b) your use of Attendee Data, (c) Roaster Materials, including any claim that they infringe a third party's rights, and (d) the coffees and products the Roastery sells.

The disclaimers, limitation of liability, dispute resolution and arbitration, governing law, venue, jury trial waiver, and class action waiver provisions of the Terms of Service apply to these Roaster Terms. If these Roaster Terms conflict with the Terms of Service on a roaster-specific matter, these Roaster Terms control. You and MCS are independent parties; nothing here creates a partnership, joint venture, agency, or employment relationship.
