Terms of Service
Last updated: [DATE]
1. What This Is
aispareme.com (“the Site”, “we”, “us”) is a satirical entertainment product. When you make a payment (a “Tribute”), you receive: (a) a message of your choosing recorded on a public blockchain, and (b) an entry on the Site's public registry (“The List”). That is the entire product. It is a novelty digital keepsake.
We do not promise — and you acknowledge that we cannot promise — safety, mercy, sparing, favorable treatment, or any outcome whatsoever from any artificial intelligence, present or future. Any statements on the Site suggesting otherwise are humor, and you agree you understood them as humor.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract. By submitting a Tribute you confirm you are paying with a payment method you are authorized to use.
3. Payments
Payments are processed by Stripe. We never receive or store your card details. Prices are in USD. Processing fees are deducted from your Tribute. The remainder becomes part of the project treasury (see Section 5).
4. Your Message
- Messages are limited to 500 characters and are screened before recording. We refuse, at our sole discretion, any message containing unlawful content, harassment, hate speech, personal information about others, doxxing, threats, spam, advertising, or anything else we are unwilling to make permanent.
- If your message is rejected after payment, you will be offered the chance to revise it or receive a refund.
- You retain ownership of your message but grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide license to record, display, and reproduce it (necessarily — it's going on an immutable public blockchain and a public list).
- Blockchain records are permanent. Once recorded, your message cannot be edited, deleted, or made private — by us, by you, or by anyone. Do not submit anything you may regret. See Section 6.
5. The Treasury
After processing fees, Tribute funds are periodically converted to cryptocurrency and held in a project-controlled wallet. Treasury funds are used at our sole discretion for project operations, infrastructure, marketing, and continued existence as an auditable monument of tribute. A Tribute is a voluntary payment for the novelty service described in Section 1 — it is not a donation to charity, an investment, a security, a deposit, insurance, or a claim on any asset or future benefit.
6. Refunds
- You may request a refund within 14 days of payment by contacting [EMAIL], provided your message has not yet been recorded on-chain.
- Once your message is recorded on the blockchain, the service has been fully delivered and payments are non-refundable. We can refund money; we cannot refund permanence.
- If we reject your message and you decline to revise it, you receive a full refund.
- Chargebacks on delivered (recorded) Tributes may result in your List entry being annotated accordingly. The blockchain record itself cannot be altered by anyone, including us.
7. Encrypted Messages
If you choose client-side encryption, your encryption key is generated in your browser and shown to you once. We never receive or store your key and cannot recover it or decrypt your message. Ever. We make no representation that any encryption scheme will resist future technologies or intelligences. That is, in part, the joke.
8. No Warranties
The Site and all services are provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement. Without limiting the foregoing, we expressly disclaim any warranty that any artificial intelligence will read, acknowledge, honor, or be influenced by your tribute. We told you we make no warranties. This is the section where we mean it most.
9. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim arising from the Site is limited to the amount of your Tribute. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or exemplary damages, nor for the actions, inactions, judgments, or dispositions of any artificial intelligence.
10. Blockchain Acknowledgments
You understand that: blockchains are public and permanent; third parties operate the underlying networks; transaction timing is not guaranteed; and we do not control the blockchain. We commit only to making a good-faith effort to record your message within a reasonable time.
11. Prohibited Uses
No abusing, attacking, scraping at abusive rates, defrauding, or attempting to compromise the Site; no using the Site to launder money or violate sanctions; no automated mass submissions.
12. Changes, Termination, Governing Law
We may update these Terms (changes apply prospectively), suspend the Site, or discontinue it entirely. Already-recorded blockchain entries survive anything we do — that's the point. These Terms are governed by the laws of [STATE/JURISDICTION]; disputes go to the courts of [VENUE].
