Letters from Fairhope is operated by Stolly Media, LLC. Throughout these Terms, “Letters from Fairhope,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to Stolly Media, LLC.

By visiting our website, creating an account, placing an order, purchasing a subscription, or otherwise using our services, you agree to these Terms and our:

  • Privacy Policy
  • Refund and Cancellation Policy
  • Shipping Policy
  • Subscription Policy
  • Any additional terms presented during checkout

Please do not use the website or purchase our products if you do not agree to these Terms.

1. About Letters from Fairhope

Letters from Fairhope is a creative historical-fiction experience delivered primarily through physical mail.

Depending on the product or subscription purchased, customers may receive materials such as:

  • Fictional letters
  • Historical-style artwork and sketches
  • Postcards
  • Photographs or photographic reproductions
  • Recipes
  • Keepsakes
  • Printed inserts
  • Access to audio recordings
  • Other story-related materials

Product contents may vary from month to month. Photographs, mockups, descriptions, and examples shown on the website are illustrative unless expressly identified as the exact contents of a particular mailing.

2. Historical Fiction and Creative Interpretation

Letters from Fairhope is a work of fiction inspired by the history, atmosphere, geography, and culture of Fairhope, Mobile Bay, and the surrounding region.

Unless expressly stated otherwise:

  • Clara Riley, Henry, the Riley family, and other story characters are fictional.
  • Letters, diary entries, sketches, photographs, conversations, and story events are fictional or creatively interpreted.
  • Historical-style materials are reproductions or newly created artistic works and are not represented as original antiques.
  • The story may combine historical research with imagined people, dialogue, places, timelines, and events.
  • Similarities to actual persons, living or deceased, may be coincidental.

We make reasonable efforts to create an authentic historical atmosphere, but we do not guarantee that every detail is historically exact. The service is intended for entertainment and artistic enjoyment, not as an academic or authoritative historical reference.

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of legal majority where you live, to make a purchase or enter into a recurring subscription agreement.

By placing an order, you represent that:

  • You are legally able to enter into a binding agreement.
  • The information you provide is accurate and complete.
  • You are authorized to use the payment method submitted.
  • Your purchase is for a lawful purpose.

Adults may purchase subscriptions for younger recipients. The adult purchaser remains responsible for the order, payment, and suitability of the materials for the recipient.

4. Accounts and Customer Information

You may be permitted or required to create a customer account.

You are responsible for:

  • Providing accurate contact, billing, and mailing information
  • Keeping your account information current
  • Protecting your login credentials
  • Restricting access to your account
  • Notifying us of suspected unauthorized account activity
  • Ensuring that your mailing address is updated before the applicable processing deadline

You are responsible for activity conducted through your account unless prohibited by applicable law.

We may suspend or close an account that contains false information, is used fraudulently, violates these Terms, or threatens the security or operation of our website.

5. Orders

Your submission of an order is an offer to purchase the selected product or subscription. An automated order confirmation acknowledges that we received your order, but it does not necessarily mean that the order has been accepted.

We reserve the right to refuse, limit, or cancel an order for reasons that may include:

  • Incorrect pricing or product information
  • Suspected fraud or unauthorized payment
  • Product or mailing-material unavailability
  • Duplicate orders
  • Shipping restrictions
  • Website or processing errors
  • Violation of these Terms

If we cancel an order after payment has been collected, we will issue an appropriate refund to the original payment method.

6. Prices and Payment

Prices are displayed in the currency indicated at checkout.

Unless otherwise stated, listed prices may not include:

  • Applicable sales taxes
  • Shipping or postage charges
  • Customs duties
  • Import taxes
  • Foreign transaction fees
  • Other government or payment-provider charges

You authorize us and our payment-processing providers to charge the payment method supplied for your order, including recurring subscription charges when applicable.

We may correct pricing errors before fulfilling an order. When a material pricing error affects an order that has already been placed, we may contact you for instructions or cancel and refund the order.

7. Monthly Subscriptions

When you purchase a monthly recurring subscription, you authorize us to charge the payment method provided at the price and frequency disclosed during checkout.

Unless the offer states otherwise:

  • Your subscription continues until canceled.
  • You will be charged automatically for each new subscription period.
  • Your subscription price and applicable taxes or shipping charges will be presented before enrollment.
  • Each payment covers the applicable upcoming subscription mailing or subscription period.
  • You may cancel future renewals through the method described during checkout, in your customer account, or by contacting us.

Cancellation stops future renewals but does not ordinarily reverse a charge already processed or cancel a mailing that has entered preparation.

Recurring-subscription terms—including the amount charged, billing frequency, cancellation method, and relevant deadlines—should also appear clearly at checkout. Federal consumer guidance emphasizes clear disclosure, informed enrollment, and a straightforward cancellation process.

8. Prepaid Subscriptions

A prepaid subscription is purchased and paid for in advance for the number of months or mailings stated in the offer.

Unless expressly stated otherwise at checkout:

  • The purchaser is charged once for the full prepaid term.
  • The subscription does not renew automatically at the end of the prepaid term.
  • Mailings are sent according to the schedule described on the product page.
  • A discount applied to a prepaid plan is based on completion of the full prepaid term.
  • Prepaid plans are subject to the cancellation and refund terms stated in our Refund and Cancellation Policy.

When a prepaid plan is advertised as automatically renewing, that feature will be disclosed before purchase.

9. Subscription Start Dates and Story Order

Letters from Fairhope is designed so that subscribers may join during different months.

A subscriber may receive the currently scheduled installment rather than beginning with the first chronological letter in the annual story cycle. Each mailing is intended to provide sufficient context to be enjoyed independently while contributing to the broader story.

Unless a product page specifically promises otherwise:

  • New subscribers do not automatically begin with Letter One.
  • Previously released installments are not included.
  • Archived or past letters may not be available for individual purchase.
  • Subscription contents may be revised, reprinted, or reissued at our discretion.

10. Billing Dates and Processing Deadlines

Billing, preparation, and mailing dates may vary by plan.

The date shown in your account or checkout confirmation may represent a billing or processing date rather than a guaranteed delivery date.

To avoid the next recurring charge, you must cancel before the applicable renewal deadline shown during checkout, in your account, or in your subscription communications.

Changes submitted after an order enters preparation may not apply to that mailing. This includes:

  • Cancellations
  • Address changes
  • Recipient changes
  • Gift-message changes
  • Subscription pauses
  • Other account changes

11. Cancellation

You may cancel a recurring monthly subscription using the cancellation method made available through your customer account, subscription-management link, or customer service.

To request assistance, contact:

clara@lettersfromfairhope.com

A cancellation is effective for future renewals after it has been successfully submitted and processed. You should retain your cancellation confirmation.

Cancellation does not automatically entitle you to a refund for:

  • A charge processed before cancellation
  • A mailing already prepared
  • A mailing already printed, assembled, addressed, or posted
  • A completed subscription period
  • Previously delivered digital content

Nothing in this section limits rights that cannot legally be waived.

12. Pauses, Skips, and Subscription Changes

We may offer the ability to pause, skip, or modify a subscription, but these options are not guaranteed unless stated as part of the selected plan.

A requested change must be submitted before the applicable processing deadline. Changes submitted after that deadline may take effect during the following subscription period.

Discounts, promotional pricing, or grandfathered pricing may not transfer when a subscription is canceled, paused, upgraded, downgraded, or replaced with another plan.

13. Gift Subscriptions

A purchaser may be able to send a subscription to another person.

The purchaser is responsible for:

  • Obtaining permission to provide the recipient’s information
  • Providing the recipient’s complete and accurate mailing address
  • Selecting an appropriate start date, when available
  • Ensuring the recipient can receive mail at the supplied address
  • Paying all charges associated with the gift
  • Informing the recipient of the gift when necessary

Gift recipients are not responsible for payment unless they separately enroll in their own paid subscription.

We may contact the purchaser or recipient when necessary to resolve a delivery issue. Gift recipients are not automatically enrolled in promotional marketing solely because they received a gift.

14. Address Changes

Customers are responsible for maintaining a complete and accurate mailing address.

Address changes must be received before the mailing enters preparation. We cannot guarantee that a change will apply to a mailing that has already been printed, addressed, assembled, or submitted to a postal carrier.

We are not responsible for mail that is lost, delayed, returned, or misdelivered because:

  • The customer supplied an incorrect or incomplete address
  • The customer failed to update an address in time
  • The recipient moved
  • The recipient’s mailbox was inaccessible
  • The postal service rejected or returned the item
  • The recipient refused the mailing
  • A building, apartment, or unit number was omitted

Additional charges may apply to replace or resend materials when the address supplied with the order was incorrect.

15. Shipping and Delivery

Physical products are shipped to the address provided with the order.

Mailing dates, transit estimates, and expected arrival windows are estimates rather than guarantees. Postal delivery times may fluctuate, and USPS states that delivery times are not guaranteed.

Delivery may be affected by circumstances outside our control, including:

  • Postal delays
  • Weather
  • Natural disasters
  • Transportation disruptions
  • Labor disruptions
  • Holidays
  • Customs processing
  • Incorrect addresses
  • Local delivery conditions
  • Changes in postal operations
  • Events of force majeure

A subscription installment arriving after the anticipated date does not necessarily constitute nonperformance.

16. Lost, Damaged, or Missing Mail

Please contact us at clara@lettersfromfairhope.com when a mailing arrives materially damaged or does not arrive within a reasonable period after its expected delivery window.

We may request:

  • Your order number
  • Confirmation of the mailing address
  • Photographs of damaged materials or packaging
  • A description of the missing or damaged contents
  • Other reasonable information needed to investigate

Depending on the circumstances and product availability, we may offer:

  • A replacement
  • A comparable substitute
  • Store credit
  • A partial refund
  • Another reasonable remedy

Replacement of limited, archived, personalized, or out-of-print materials cannot be guaranteed.

Claims must be submitted within the period stated in our Shipping or Refund Policy.

17. Returns and Refunds

Returns, cancellations, replacements, and refunds are governed by our separate Refund and Cancellation Policy.

Because many Letters from Fairhope products are:

  • Printed in limited quantities
  • Prepared for specific subscription cycles
  • Personalized or addressed for a particular recipient
  • Time-sensitive
  • Accompanied by immediately accessible digital content

Some purchases may be nonreturnable or subject to limited refund eligibility.

Nothing in these Terms excludes any refund, cancellation, return, or consumer right that applies under governing law.

18. Digital and Audio Content

Some purchases may include access to digital content, audio recordings, private webpages, downloadable files, QR-code materials, or streaming content.

Unless otherwise stated, purchasing access grants you a limited, personal, nonexclusive, nontransferable, revocable license to access and enjoy the content for private, noncommercial use.

You may not:

  • Copy or distribute the content
  • Upload it to another platform
  • Share private access links or files publicly
  • Sell, sublicense, or commercially exploit it
  • Remove copyright or ownership notices
  • Create unauthorized derivative products
  • Use the content to train an artificial-intelligence system or dataset
  • Circumvent access controls
  • Record and redistribute streamed material

Digital availability may depend on compatible internet access, devices, browsers, or third-party platforms.

We may replace the method used to deliver digital content, provided that substantially similar access remains available where reasonably practicable.

19. Intellectual Property

The website and its contents are owned by or licensed to Stolly Media, LLC and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws.

  • Graphic designs

  • Product designs
  • Inserts and keepsakes
  • Website copy
  • Logos
  • Videos
  • Downloads
  • Packaging
  • Promotional materials

Purchasing a product transfers ownership of the physical copy delivered to you, but it does not transfer copyright, trademark rights, reproduction rights, commercial rights, or other intellectual-property rights.

You may display, read, preserve, or give away your lawfully purchased physical copy for personal use. You may not reproduce or commercially exploit the contents without written permission.

20. Customer Submissions

When you send us a review, testimonial, photograph, comment, suggestion, or other submission, you retain any ownership rights you hold in the original material.

Unless you indicate otherwise, you grant us a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, adapt, publish, and display voluntarily submitted reviews and testimonials for business and promotional purposes.

We will not intentionally publish private order information, a personal mailing address, or confidential customer-service communications without permission.

You represent that your submission:

  • Is accurate to the best of your knowledge
  • Does not violate another person’s rights
  • Is not unlawful, threatening, defamatory, fraudulent, or obscene
