Tickets & invitations
- Dinners are invitation only. Seats go to guests selected from our applications.
- Your invitation is held for 3 days from the day it's sent. If your seat isn't reserved by then, it's offered to someone else.
- A ticket reserves one seat for the named guest. Tickets can't be transferred, resold or shared.
- Your ticket covers your seat, the private dining room, a complimentary dessert provided by your host, and the evening your host has planned. Your meal, drinks, any dessert from the menu, gratuity and transportation are not included.
- Payments are processed securely by Stripe.

- Day-of cancellations, no-call no-shows and late arrivals aren't refunded. Dinner starts promptly, so please plan to arrive 30 minutes early.
- If we cancel or reschedule a dinner, you'll get a full refund or a seat at the new date, whichever you prefer.
Filming & photography

- Prefer not to be posted, or not tagged? Want to be tagged? Just let us know. We'll honor any request, including for safety reasons.
- You're welcome, and encouraged, to record your own moments too. Please be kind to your fellow guests when you post.
Age requirement
All dinners are 21+ only. Please bring a valid photo ID. The restaurant may check it.
Food, drinks & allergies
- Be sure to fill out your after-purchase survey. It's how we learn your dietary preferences, plus a few fun details about you.
- You order and pay for your own meal, drinks and any dessert from the menu. Your complimentary dessert is provided by your host.
- Let your server know about any allergies or dietary needs. The restaurant prepares all food.
- Please drink responsibly and plan a safe way home.
Conduct
InHerCircle is built on respect. We may ask anyone who is disrespectful, unsafe or disruptive to leave, without a refund. Please look after your own belongings. InHerCircle isn't responsible for lost or damaged items.
Legal terms
- This website and the InHerCircle Dinner Series are operated by InHerCircle LLC. Buying a ticket or using this site means you agree to these policies.
- You attend at your own risk and are responsible for your own conduct, belongings, drinks and transportation. Dinners take place at independent restaurants and venues, which are responsible for their own food, service and premises.
- To the fullest extent the law allows, InHerCircle LLC's total responsibility to you for any claim related to a dinner is limited to the amount you paid for your ticket.
- The InHerCircle name, logo, website content and the photos and videos we take at dinners belong to InHerCircle LLC. Your own photos and videos belong to you.
- These policies are governed by the laws of the State of Georgia.
Privacy policy
We only collect what we need. You're not a customer until you're selected for a dinner, so we don't ask for more than we have to before then, and we never sell your information.
What we collect
- Waitlist: your email address.
- Applications: the answers you give in our application form.
- Invited guests: your name, whether you agreed to these policies and when, and your reason if you decline or cancel.
- Ticket purchases: your name, email and payment details, handled by Stripe. We never see or store your card number.
- Pre-dinner survey: dietary preferences, a few fun details about you and an emergency contact.
- Unsubscribes and emails you send us: your email address and anything you choose to tell us.
- On this website: we don't use analytics, advertising or tracking cookies. The site saves a few small items in your own browser, such as whether you've opened your invitation, so pages work as expected. Our web host keeps standard technical logs, like IP address and browser type, to keep the site running and secure.
How we use it
To run our dinners: matching guests, sending invitations and dinner details, processing payments and refunds, planning for allergies and emergencies, and sending updates you've signed up for.
Who we share it with
Only the services that help us run InHerCircle: Stripe (payments), Formspree (website forms), Tally and Typeform (applications and surveys), Netlify (website hosting) and Google Fonts (the site's fonts). Each one handles your information under its own privacy policy. We may also share information if the law requires it.
How long we keep it
Waitlist emails stay until you unsubscribe. Guest details are kept only as long as we need them for the dinner and any follow-up, except records we're required to keep, such as payment records for taxes.
Your choices
- Stop our emails anytime on our unsubscribe page or with the link in any email.
- Ask to see, correct or delete your information by emailing us. We'll reply within 30 days.
- Do Not Track: we don't track visitors across websites, so a Do Not Track setting doesn't change how this site works.
Age
Our dinners are for women 21 and over, and this site isn't meant for children. We don't knowingly collect information from anyone under 18. If we learn we have, we'll delete it.
Changes
If we change this policy, we'll update the date at the top of this page. For important changes, we'll also let you know by email or on the site.
Accessibility
We want everyone to be able to use this website and enjoy our dinners. We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines (WCAG) 2.1, level AA.
- The site works with screen readers and keyboards, follows your phone's light or dark setting, respects reduced-motion settings and lets you enlarge text.
- Some steps use outside services, like Stripe checkout and our application and survey forms, which have their own accessibility features.
- Having trouble with any part of the site, or need something in another format? Email us and we'll help within 3 business days.
- If you have accessibility needs at the dinner, tell us after you're invited. We'll share the venue's accessibility details and do our best to accommodate you.
