terms and conditions
Effective date: June 11, 2026
1. Who We Are and What This Is
Color the News ("we," "us," "the club") operates colorthenews.com, a subscription service providing downloadable satirical coloring pages and coloring books. By creating an account, purchasing a membership, or using this site, you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, don't join — we'll both be fine.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old to purchase a membership. Our content is political satire created for adults. It is not intended for children, and by joining you confirm you're a grown-up, legally and otherwise.
3. Your Account
You're responsible for your account credentials and for everything that happens under your login. Keep your password to yourself. If you believe your account has been compromised, contact us and we'll sort it out.
4. Membership, Billing, and Auto-Renewal
Plans. We offer a monthly membership ($10/month) and an annual membership ($99/year). Both unlock the entire Coloring Club Vault, including all new pages released during your membership.
Auto-renewal. Your membership renews automatically until you cancel. Monthly plans are billed once each month; annual plans are billed once each year. We charge the payment method on file at the start of each renewal period unless you cancel before the renewal date.
Your price is your price. The rate in effect when you join is the rate you'll pay for as long as your membership remains continuously active. We may change prices for new members, but we will not raise your rate while your membership stays active. We said forever and we meant it.
Failed payments. If a renewal charge fails, we may retry it and/or suspend your access until payment succeeds.
5. Cancellation
You may cancel anytime through your account settings. Cancellation stops future billing; your access continues through the end of the period you've already paid for, and no further charges occur. We do not prorate or refund partial periods. There is no cancellation fee, phone call, or exit interview.
6. Refunds
All sales are final. Because membership delivers immediate access to digital downloads, we do not offer refunds, in whole or in part, once a billing period begins. If something is technically broken on our end — you paid and genuinely can't access the Coloring Club Vault — contact us and we'll make it right.
7. License: What Your Membership Lets You Do
Membership grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to download and print our coloring pages for your own personal, non-commercial use.
You may: download and print unlimited copies for yourself; color them by any means; display your finished work; and post photographs of your colored pages on social media.
You may not: share, redistribute, resell, or publicly post our digital files (colored-in photos of your finished work are fine — the PDFs themselves are not); use our artwork commercially; remove our marks from the pages; or use our content to train AI models. The artwork is ours. The crayon work is yours.
This license ends when your membership ends, except that pages you already printed remain yours to enjoy.
8. Our Intellectual Property
All artwork, coloring pages, coloring books, text, and branding on this site are original works owned by Color the News and protected by copyright and other intellectual property laws. See our Fair Use & Legal page for our position on satire, parody, and fair use.
9. The Content Is Satire
Our coloring pages are works of satire, parody, and political commentary about public figures and matters of public concern. Depictions are caricature and opinion, not statements of fact. No person depicted endorses, sponsors, or is affiliated with Color the News, which we suspect they would confirm enthusiastically.
10. Acceptable Use
Don't use this site to do anything illegal, don't attempt to breach, scrape, or overload our systems, don't frame our content as your own, and don't use our artwork to harass private individuals. We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, with no refund for the terminated period.
11. Third-Party Services
Payments are processed by third-party payment providers; we never see or store your full card details. Our site runs on Wix, whose own terms and infrastructure apply to the technical operation of the service.
12. Disclaimers
The service is provided "as is" and "as available." We work hard to keep the Vault open 24/7, but we don't guarantee uninterrupted access, and we may modify, add, or retire content and features. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all warranties, express or implied.
13. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Color the News will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service, and our total liability for any claim will not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim arose. Coloring rage is meant to leave the page; we are not responsible for what your finished artwork does to dinner-party conversation.
14. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we'll post the updated Terms here with a new effective date, and for significant changes affecting paid memberships we'll notify members by email. Continued use after changes take effect means you accept them.
15. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Arizona, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Arizona.
16. Contact
