Terms of Service

Last updated: March 3, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing, browsing, or using Haunted 365 and/or HR for Haunters (collectively, "the Services"), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms") and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use the Services.

Haunted 365 is a social community platform designed for haunt entertainment professionals, performers, creators, and enthusiasts to connect, share content, and engage with the haunt industry year-round.

HR for Haunters is a comprehensive human resources management system specifically designed for seasonal haunt businesses. This service includes employee management, scheduling, payroll processing, performance tracking, and compliance tools.

While Haunted 365 offers free community features, HR for Haunters is a premium subscription service requiring active membership. Organizations using HR for Haunters must invite their workforce to join their private workspace, requiring employees to create Haunted 365 accounts and provide necessary employment information.

These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Dreadful Damsels LLC ("Company," "we," "us," or "our"). We may modify these Terms at any time, and such modifications will be effective immediately upon posting. Your continued use of the Services constitutes acceptance of any modifications.

2. User Eligibility, Age Requirements, and Account Requirements

2.1 Age Brackets and Registration

Haunted 365 uses age-based registration tiers in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA), the General Data Protection Regulation provisions for children (GDPR-K), and the UK Age Appropriate Design Code (AADC):

  • Under 13: Users under 13 years of age may not create accounts on Haunted 365. No personal information is collected from users who indicate they are under 13. Users under 13 may browse public attraction listings without an account.
  • Ages 13–15 (Teen Junior): Users aged 13–15 may create accounts only with verified parental or guardian consent. During registration, the minor must provide a birth year and a parent/guardian email address. The parent/guardian will receive a consent request email and must approve the account within 48 hours. Accounts not approved within this period are automatically deleted along with all associated data. Teen Junior accounts have restricted feature access including no messaging and limited community participation.
  • Ages 16–17 (Teen Senior): Users aged 16–17 may create accounts with verified parental or guardian consent following the same process as Teen Junior accounts. Teen Senior accounts may have expanded feature access (including limited messaging with mutual connections and employment features) if their parent/guardian enables expanded permissions through the Family Account dashboard.
  • 18 and older (Adult): Adults may create accounts through the standard registration process with full platform access.

2.2 Parental Consent Requirements

For users under 18, a parent or legal guardian must provide verifiable consent before the account becomes active. Consent is provided by clicking a unique confirmation link sent to the parent/guardian's email address. The consent link expires after 48 hours. If consent is not received within this period, the minor's account and all associated data are permanently and irrevocably deleted.

Parents and guardians may revoke consent at any time through the Family Account dashboard or by contacting us at [email protected]. Revoking consent will result in immediate deactivation and subsequent deletion of the minor's account and all associated data.

2.3 Family Accounts

Parents and guardians may create Family Accounts to manage their children's access. Family Accounts allow parents to control permission levels, review activity, and manage data for all linked minor accounts. Only verified adults (18+) may create and manage Family Accounts.

2.4 Feature Restrictions for Minors

Minor accounts are subject to age-appropriate safety restrictions. These restrictions are enforced automatically and cannot be bypassed. Adults may not initiate direct contact with minor accounts. All interactions involving minor accounts are subject to enhanced content moderation. Location sharing is disabled for all minor accounts unless explicitly enabled by a parent/guardian.

2.5 Turning 18

When a minor user turns 18, their account is automatically transitioned to an adult account with full platform access. The user will be notified of this transition and given the option to review and update their account settings.

2.6 Employment of Minors (HR for Haunters)

Haunts may use HR for Haunters to manage contractors, volunteers, and employees under 18 years of age, provided they comply with all applicable federal, state, and local laws regarding employment of minors, including but not limited to work permits, hour restrictions, safety requirements, and parental consent requirements. The attraction is solely responsible for ensuring legal compliance with all minor employment laws in their jurisdiction. Account administrators and managers for HR for Haunters must be at least 18 years old.

2.7 General Account Requirements

You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to update such information to maintain its accuracy. You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.

Each user may maintain only one account. Creating multiple accounts, sharing accounts, or using automated systems to create accounts is prohibited.
