⚠️ IMPORTANT – PLEASE READ:
As we expand to offer business promotions, we must clearly state the following:
🧾 Liability Waiver & Safety Notice
Black Tampa 813 does not guarantee the performance, reliability, or legitimacy of any promoted business or service. We strongly advise all members to:
Do your own research before engaging with any vendor
Ask for referrals, reviews, and licenses
Meet face-to-face in a safe, public location when possible
Never pay full deposits upfront without protections
By purchasing a promo tier, you acknowledge that:
No refunds will be issued after submission
We reserve the right to reject or remove any promo for reasons including but not limited to:
🔹 Misrepresentation or deceptive advertising
🔹 Content deemed slanderous, harmful, vulgar, or in poor taste
🔹 Lack of relevance to the Tampa Bay community
🔹 Violations of Facebook’s spam/scam policies
We welcome Florida-based and local businesses first. Online or virtual businesses will be considered on a case-by-case basis depending on audience relevance.
❤️ Our Commitment:
This effort is about amplifying our community while maintaining integrity. Black Tampa 813 remains a curated space. Not every post gets approved — and that’s intentional.
Thank you to everyone who continues to uplift this platform. With your support, we can keep Tampa bold, Black, and beautifully visible.
🖤✊🏾
