Welcome to Ada James
We're so happy you're here.
Ada James was created with a simple idea: motherhood is better when we have each other. Think of Ada James as a favorite friend's home. Come as you are, settle in, introduce yourself, and make yourself comfortable. Grab a cup of hot tea or coffee. We're here to make sure you feel welcome.
Like any good gathering, a few thoughtful house rules help make the experience wonderful for everyone. By joining Ada James, purchasing a membership, or participating in our online community, you agree to the following Terms & Conditions.
1. Your Ada James Membership
Your membership gives you access to our private online community, hosted through Circle & Slack, or other platforms selected by Ada James.
Depending on your membership plan, your experience may include:
• Conversations and connections with fellow mothers or likeminded women.
• Online community discussions and interest groups.
• Daily rituals, virtual gatherings, and special programming.
• Educational resources, recommendations, and shared experiences.
• Invitations to exclusive in-person events, workshops, and experiences.
• Access to special member benefits and offerings.
We're always dreaming up new ways to bring our community together. Membership benefits and programming may evolve, and we'll keep you informed of material changes.
Specific benefits are determined by the membership plan you purchase.
2. Membership Fees & Billing
We like surprises. Just not on your credit card statement.
Ada James may offer monthly and annual memberships, with pricing clearly displayed when you join.
Monthly Memberships
Your membership renews automatically each month until you cancel.
Annual Memberships
Your membership renews automatically each year until you cancel.
By purchasing a recurring membership, you authorize Ada James to charge your selected payment method at the disclosed subscription rate and frequency.
We'll clearly explain the price, billing schedule, automatic renewal terms, and cancellation process before you subscribe.
Any price changes will be communicated in advance as required by law.
3. Canceling Your Membership
Life changes. Schedules shift. Sometimes you simply need to make room for something else. We understand.
You can cancel your membership at any time.
• Cancel through your membership account or the cancellation method provided at signup.
• Your cancellation stops future automatic renewal charges.
• You'll continue enjoying your membership through the end of your current paid billing period unless otherwise stated.
• Once your membership period ends, your access to member-only spaces and benefits will conclude.
We won't make you jump through hoops to leave. We'd love for you to stay, but we'll respect your decision if it's time to go and welcome you back in the future.
4. Refund Policy
We want you to feel good about joining Ada James. Here's how refunds work.
New Member Welcome Guarantee
First-time members may request a full refund within seven calendar days of their initial membership purchase. To request a refund, contact hello@adajames.club within seven days of your purchase date. This guarantee applies to the initial membership purchase only, not subsequent renewals.
Monthly Memberships
After the initial seven-day guarantee, monthly membership fees are nonrefundable except where required by law. You may cancel at any time to prevent future charges.
Annual Memberships
Annual memberships are eligible for the same initial seven-day welcome guarantee. After that period, annual membership fees are generally nonrefundable, and we do not ordinarily issue prorated refunds for unused months, except where required by law.
Billing Errors & Special Circumstances
Mistakes happen. Nothing is ever perfect. If you believe you've been charged incorrectly, please reach out. We'll review billing concerns and exceptional circumstances individually and provide refunds where required by law. Approved refunds will generally be returned to the original payment method.
5. Our Community House Rules
Ada James is a place to connect, exchange ideas, laugh, learn, and feel supported through the many chapters of motherhood. We believe everyone deserves to feel welcome, respected, and comfortable being themselves.
Here's what we ask of our members:
Lead with kindness. We don't have to agree on everything. Different parenting styles, experiences, and opinions are welcome. Personal attacks, bullying, harassment, and discrimination are not.
We love inclusivity. Join the conversation, ask questions, share your perspective, and help other members feel included.
Respect boundaries. Not everyone is comfortable sharing the same things. Please honor one another's privacy, time, and personal boundaries.
Keep promotions in their place. Unsolicited sales pitches, spam, and repeated self-promotion are not permitted unless Ada James has specifically approved them.
Be thoughtful with advice. Sharing experiences can be incredibly helpful. Please remember that what works for one family may not work for another.
Handle disagreements with care. Healthy discussion is welcome. Hostility, intimidation, and harmful behavior are not and Ada James can lend a helping hand when needed. Our goal is simple: a community where every mother feels she belongs.
6. Privacy, Photos & Personal Stories
What's shared in good company deserves respect. Our members may discuss personal experiences, relationships, family life, parenting challenges, and other sensitive subjects. We ask everyone to treat these conversations with care.
Members agree not to:
• Share screenshots of private community conversations without permission.
• Publish or distribute another member's personal stories or identifying information without consent.
• Share photographs of another member or their children without permission.
• Disclose private messages or confidential member information outside the community without authorization.
While Ada James expects members to respect these boundaries, we cannot guarantee that everything shared within a digital community will remain confidential. Please use your judgment when sharing sensitive personal or family information.
Our separate Privacy Policy explains how Ada James collects, uses, stores, and shares personal information.
7. A Little About Advice & Recommendations
Mothers are full of wisdom. We're here for the recommendations, helpful tips, and stories that make life a little easier.
That said, advice shared by members, guest speakers, and community contributors reflects their own experiences and perspectives. Ada James does not provide professional medical, mental health, legal, financial, or childcare advice through its general community discussions. Please consult qualified professionals when making decisions that require specialized expertise.
Members are responsible for evaluating recommendations and making decisions appropriate for their own families.
8. Our Online Platforms
Our online community may be hosted through Circle, Slack, or other digital services.
These platforms help us create spaces for conversations, events, and connection. When using these services, you may also be subject to their individual terms and privacy policies.
Occasionally, technology has a mind of its own. While we'll make reasonable efforts to maintain access and resolve issues, Ada James cannot guarantee uninterrupted availability of third-party platforms.
9. Events, Gatherings & Special Experiences
From thoughtful conversations and workshops to special experiences and in-person events, we hope to create opportunities for members to connect beyond the screen.
Some experiences may be included in your membership. Others may require a separate ticket or additional payment. When an event has its own registration, cancellation, refund, age, or participation requirements, we'll share those details before you book.
Unless expressly stated, purchasing an Ada James membership does not guarantee admission to separately ticketed events.
For in-person gatherings involving children, parents and guardians remain responsible for their children's supervision unless a separate, expressly identified childcare service is provided under its own terms.
10. Ada James Cash — Our Referral Rewards
We believe the most meaningful communities grow through personal connections. And when you introduce another mother to Ada James, we'd love to say thank you.
Here's how it works:
• Refer a new paying member to Ada James and receive $10 in Ada James Cash.
• Your reward is earned once your referred friend completes her first eligible membership payment and the applicable refund period has passed.
• Ada James Cash may be used toward eligible future Ada James events, workshops, gatherings, and special experiences.
• Rewards can accumulate. Refer five friends who become eligible paying members, and you'll earn $50 in Ada James Cash.
• Ada James Cash cannot be redeemed for cash, transferred to another member, or used toward membership subscription fees.
• Self-referrals, duplicate accounts, canceled or refunded qualifying purchases, and fraudulent referrals do not qualify.
• Ada James Cash does not expire under the current program, subject to any applicable legal requirements.
Members must follow the referral instructions provided by Ada James so we can properly credit their accounts. We may modify or discontinue the referral program with appropriate notice. Earned rewards will be handled according to the terms under which they were issued and applicable law.
A little thank-you for helping us bring more wonderful mothers together.
11. Member Accounts & Personal Responsibility
Please keep your login information private and don't share account access with others.
You're responsible for activity occurring through your account, except where prohibited by applicable law.
If you suspect unauthorized access, please contact us so we can help protect your account.
Members must be at least 18 years old to join Ada James.
12. Keeping Our Community Safe
Ada James may review reported conduct, moderate discussions, remove inappropriate content, or restrict access when necessary to protect the community.
Serious or repeated violations of our Terms & Conditions may result in membership suspension or termination.
When appropriate, we'll communicate concerns and provide an opportunity to resolve them. However, immediate action may be taken when safety, privacy, or serious misconduct is involved.
Refund eligibility following termination will depend on the circumstances and applicable law.
13. Content & Intellectual Property
We love when our members share ideas, inspiration, and creativity.
Content created by Ada James including branding, original educational materials, programming, written resources, graphics, and other proprietary materials belongs to Ada James or its licensors.
Membership provides personal access to these materials, not ownership or permission to reproduce or commercially distribute them.
Members retain ownership of content they create and share, while granting Ada James the limited permission necessary to host, display, and operate that content within the community, subject to our Privacy Policy.
Ada James will not use a member's private personal story, photograph, or likeness in public marketing without obtaining appropriate permission.
14. Changes to Memberships & Policies
As Ada James grows, our offerings may grow with it.
We may introduce new experiences, adjust membership benefits, or update these Terms & Conditions.
We'll provide appropriate notice of material changes, including changes to pricing, renewal terms, or member rights, and obtain additional consent when required by law.
15. A Note About Liability
Ada James provides a community platform, educational resources, and opportunities for connection.
We make reasonable efforts to provide a thoughtful and positive membership experience, but we cannot guarantee specific personal, professional, social, or parenting outcomes.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, Ada James is not responsible for independent advice, recommendations, products, or services provided by other members or third parties.
Nothing in these terms limits rights or remedies that cannot legally be waived.
16. Questions? We're Here.
Whether you have a question about your membership, need help with billing, or simply aren't sure where to find something, please reach out.
We want you to feel taken care of.
