Terms of Service

The whole arrangement, in plain words. Last set: 4 July 2026.

What Paperboy is

Paperboy writes you a short personal newspaper overnight and delivers it by email as a print-ready PDF each morning, at the local time you choose. If your printer can receive email, the paper can print itself. You supply the printer, the paper and the ink.

Your subscription

The price shown at checkout is charged monthly through Stripe, our payment processor, after any free trial ends. You can cancel any time from the Stripe receipt email or by writing to hello@paperboy.page; your paper keeps arriving until the end of the period you paid for, then stops. If we ever change the price, we tell you by email at least a month ahead, and your cancellation right is unaffected.

What we promise, and what we cannot

We work to get an edition to you every morning, and the service degrades gracefully rather than failing silently. Honesty requires saying the rest out loud:

• Delivery depends on email providers, your printer and your network. A missed morning is annoying and we will care, but it does not create liability beyond the month's fee.
• The editorial copy is written nightly by an AI editor from sources you chose. It can be wrong, late or duller than usual. Headlines are summarized from and attributed to their sources; follow the links for the full stories.
• Weather, market and other data come from third parties and arrive as-is.
• Puzzles are checked by machine; if a crossword clue is ever unfair, we owe you an apology, not damages.

To the extent the law allows, our total liability is capped at the fees you paid us in the three months before the claim.

Playing fair

Your subscription is for you and your household (a gifted route belongs to its recipient). Do not resell editions, hammer the service with automated traffic, or use the Editor's Brief to attempt anything unlawful. We can suspend accounts that abuse the service, and will say why.

Your content

Names, dedications, briefs and feed choices you file remain yours; you give us permission to print them in your paper, which is the entire point. We claim nothing else.

Ending things

You can leave any time, as above. We can discontinue the service with at least a month's notice, refunding any unused time. These terms are governed by the law of Denmark, without depriving you of protections your home country's consumer law grants you.

Changes

If these terms change materially, subscribers get an email before the change takes effect. The current version always lives at this address.
