Welcome to The Jest Press ("we," "us," or "our"). These Terms of Use govern your access and use of our website (the "Site"), including social media pages and any related features or services we offer.
By using the Site — whether you're scrolling headlines, posting comments, or subscribing to newsletters — you acknowledge that you've read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
Eligibility & Accounts
- You must be at least 18 years old to use our commenting and subscription features.
- If you're under 18, you may use the Site only with explicit consent from a parent or guardian, who must read and agree to these Terms on your behalf.
Site Usage Rules
You agree to use the Site only for lawful, non-commercial purposes. Don't:
- Post content that is harmful, harassing, or violates community standards.
- Impersonate others, including Jest Press staff.
- Interfere with site functionality or bypass security measures.
- Use bots or automation to scrape or mine our content.
We reserve the right to remove content or suspend your access if you violate these rules. Tycoon-level trolls beware.
User Content License
Any content you post (comments, headlines, etc.) is yours — but also ours. By posting, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, modify, display, and distribute that content, forever.
So if we quote your quip on the homepage or in a merch shirt, that's on you — and a fine badge of honor, if you ask us.
Intellectual Property
The Site and all content are protected by copyright (© 2025 The Jest Press). You're welcome to read, maybe screenshot a meme — but don't republish or monetize our material without written permission.
Third-Party Links & Services
We might use third-party tools (e.g. analytics, mailing platforms). Those services may collect usage data. Their actions are governed by their own policies — not ours. So please review them if you care.
Disclaimers & Liability
Content on Jest Press is meant as satire. We aim to keep it funny — not liable. Therefore:
- All content is provided "as-is" without warranties of any kind.
- We are not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from your use.
- If you don't find our humor funny, you accept the consequences of your new dry-spirited reality.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these terms at any time without notice. If we do, the new versions will be effective when posted. Your continued use of the Site after changes means you accept them.
Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the state of Texas (yep, where we brew our satire). Any disputes will be handled in a court located in Texas — unless we all agree to other terms.
