How does JoinTheSwing distinguish its own policies from a venue's policies?
JoinTheSwing’s policies apply to our website and membership community, while each venue sets and enforces the rules for its own premises and events. A listing or guide does not replace the venue’s current policies, so review both before making plans.
JoinTheSwing’s policies explain how we operate our members-only site and public guides and answers library. They cover expectations for using our platform, the information we present, and the boundaries of our role. They do not turn an independently operated club, resort, hotel, or other destination into a JoinTheSwing venue, and we do not control its staff, property, or decisions.
A venue’s policies govern what happens on its premises or at its event. That can include admission, guest eligibility, identification, dress, behavior, photography, fees, hours, and access to particular areas. These rules may differ from one venue to another and may change. The venue decides how to interpret and enforce them, subject to applicable law.
When you see a club or destination listing on JoinTheSwing, treat it as a starting point rather than a complete rulebook. Confirm current details directly with the venue before traveling or arriving, especially if a requirement matters to your plans. A JoinTheSwing guide may explain common expectations, but it cannot promise what a venue will allow or how a situation will be handled.
If the two sets of policies appear different, follow the stricter requirement when planning your visit and ask the venue to clarify anything uncertain. JoinTheSwing can explain what our site provides and how our information is presented; it cannot override a venue’s rules, resolve a venue dispute, or speak for local law. Keep relevant confirmations and review both sources before committing to a trip.
