THE FINE PRINT HAS ENTERED THE CHAT.

1. Agreement to These Terms

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern access to and use of DomainSquattersSuck.com and services that expressly link to these Terms (collectively, the “Site”). The Site is operated under the DomainSquattersSuck.com project name (“we,” “us,” or “our”).

By accessing or using the Site, you agree to these Terms to the extent an enforceable agreement is formed under applicable law. Nothing in these Terms is intended to manufacture assent where the law says none exists. We enjoy irony, not imaginary contract formation.

2. What This Site Is

The Site publishes research, commentary, calculations, historical observations, screenshots, public-resource links, market data, methodology, and other material relating to domain registration, parking, aftermarket listings, brokerage, pricing, resale, and related internet infrastructure.

The Site may contain criticism, humor, satire, opinion, and pointed language. It may also contain factual observations and derived metrics. We try to distinguish those categories because “we think this is absurd” and “this price was observed on this date” are not the same sentence wearing different shoes.

3. What This Site Is Not

The Site is not a court, regulator, trademark tribunal, appraisal service, registrar, escrow provider, investment adviser, or law firm. A listing in the Graveyard does not by itself mean that a registrant, broker, registrar, marketplace, or other party violated law, contract, policy, trademark rights, or industry rules.

Unless expressly stated otherwise, “domain squatting” in the Site’s branding is used colloquially and should not be confused with a legal determination of cybersquatting under any statute, policy, or dispute-resolution procedure.

4. Observations Change

Domain status, ownership, registration data, DNS configuration, landing pages, asking prices, redirects, marketplaces, and business use can change quickly. Records should therefore be read together with their observation date, source, methodology, and update history.

Historical observations may remain visible after a domain changes status because the fact that something changed does not erase the fact that it previously existed.

5. Corrections and Right of Reply

We welcome good-faith corrections supported by evidence. If a published record is materially inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or misleading, you may ask us to review it. We may request supporting documentation before changing a research record.

Where appropriate, we may correct, annotate, update, preserve prior versions, or publish a response. We are not required to erase accurate historical facts merely because they later became inconvenient.

6. User Submissions

If you submit screenshots, domain leads, correspondence, documents, corrections, comments, data, or other material, you represent that you have the right to submit it and that your submission does not knowingly violate applicable law or another person’s rights.

You retain ownership of material you own. By submitting material for research, verification, correction, or publication, you grant us a nonexclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to store, reproduce, analyze, redact, format, display, quote, and publish that material as reasonably necessary for those purposes. This license does not give us ownership of your underlying intellectual property.

If you use the public research desk, you authorize us to transmit the research brief to AI and search providers used to investigate public sources. You must provide and verify a working email address, agree to these Terms, acknowledge the case-submission privacy notice, and acknowledge that researched case facts may be automatically published after successful verification and research. Email verification confirms control of the submitted inbox; it is not identity verification.

To protect the integrity of the public record, only one verified new case for the same domain is accepted within any seven-day period, regardless of the email address used. This is a data-integrity rule, not a claim that every verified email represents a unique natural person. Automated reports are published with evidence-strength metrics and stated limitations, and they remain subject to correction, annotation, and later evidence.

7. Robots, Spiders, Crawlers, Scrapers, Vacuum Cleaners With Wi-Fi, and Other Automated Creatures

You may use ordinary web browsers and standard search-engine indexing consistent with our published technical controls. Unless we provide written permission or an API expressly authorizes the activity, you may not use automated means to:

• bulk-copy or systematically extract the Site’s database, evidence library, or substantial portions of its content;
• evade rate limits, authentication, access restrictions, robots directives, or other technical controls;
• place unreasonable load on the Site or interfere with its availability;
• harvest personal information, submission data, or nonpublic information;
• republish a substantial portion of the Site as a competing or substitute database; or
• misrepresent automated activity as ordinary human browsing for the purpose of defeating technical restrictions.

And now for the important part: these Terms are contractual terms. They do not convert conduct that is lawful under controlling law into a crime merely because we dislike it, and they do not make unlawful conduct lawful because we forgot to prohibit it. Applicable law remains applicable law. Imagine that.

8. Prohibited Conduct

You may not use the Site to:

• attack, disrupt, overload, probe, or compromise systems or accounts;
• introduce malicious code;
• impersonate another person or misrepresent affiliation;
• submit knowingly false evidence or fabricated complaints;
• dox, threaten, stalk, or unlawfully harass individuals;
• circumvent authentication or access controls;
• infringe intellectual-property rights; or
• use the Site in violation of applicable law.

9. Our Content and Database

The Site’s original text, visual design, code, organization, graphics, compilations, original photographs or screenshots, database structure, annotations, and original research may be protected by copyright, database, contract, or other rights as applicable. Facts themselves are not magically transformed into private property because they appear on our screen. Our original selection, organization, commentary, presentation, and protectable expression may be.

Reasonable quotation, commentary, criticism, linking, and other uses permitted by law remain subject to the rights and limitations provided by applicable law. We are not going to write “fair use is hereby abolished” because we do not own Congress.

10. Third-Party Content, Trademarks, and Screenshots

The Site may identify third-party companies, registrars, marketplaces, brokers, domain names, trademarks, screenshots, webpages, and other materials for research, criticism, comparison, reporting, documentation, or commentary. Third-party names and marks remain the property of their respective owners.

Reference to a third party does not imply endorsement, affiliation, sponsorship, or reciprocal affection.

11. Links to Government and Third-Party Resources

The Site may link to elected-official directories, legislatures, regulators, consumer-protection agencies, courts, ICANN resources, registrars, marketplaces, archives, and other third-party resources. These links are provided for convenience and research. We do not control third-party availability, accuracy, terms, privacy practices, or content.

12. No Legal, Investment, Valuation, or Business Advice

Nothing on the Site is legal advice, investment advice, tax advice, appraisal advice, valuation advice, or a recommendation to buy, sell, register, challenge, litigate over, or abandon a domain name. Calculators and benchmarks are informational tools whose assumptions should be read before anyone makes a financial decision with actual money.

13. No Guarantee of Accuracy or Availability

We aim for careful sourcing and transparent methodology, but the Site is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis to the fullest extent permitted by law. We do not promise uninterrupted service, error-free data, eternal links, immortal APIs, perfectly current domain records, or that every third-party server on Earth will remain cooperative before breakfast.

14. Disclaimer of Warranties

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, WE DISCLAIM WARRANTIES THAT MAY OTHERWISE ARISE REGARDING THE SITE, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT, EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT A WARRANTY CANNOT LAWFULLY BE DISCLAIMED.

15. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, THE SITE, ITS OPERATOR, OWNERS, PERSONNEL, CONTRACTORS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO USE OF THE SITE, LOSS OF DATA, THIRD-PARTY CONDUCT, RELIANCE ON RESEARCH, OR SITE UNAVAILABILITY.

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that applicable law does not permit to be excluded or limited.

16. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Site and its operator from third-party claims, liabilities, damages, and reasonable costs arising from your unlawful use of the Site, your violation of these Terms, or material you submit in violation of another person’s rights. This provision does not require indemnification where applicable law prohibits it.

17. Copyright and Other Rights Complaints

If you believe material on the Site infringes a copyright, trademark, privacy right, or other legally protected interest, send a sufficiently detailed notice through the contact channels published by DomainSquattersSuck.com. Include the material at issue, the basis of your claim, your contact information, and enough information for us to evaluate the request.

We may request additional information and may preserve disputed material or records where reasonably necessary to investigate, document, or defend a claim.

18. Governing Law

Except where controlling law requires otherwise, these Terms and disputes arising from or relating to the Site will be governed by the laws of the State of Nebraska, without regard to conflict-of-law rules that would require application of another jurisdiction’s law.

19. Venue: Yes, Here

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, any lawsuit or court proceeding arising from or relating to these Terms or the Site that is not subject to mandatory venue elsewhere must be brought exclusively in the state court located in the Nebraska county where the Site operator maintains its principal place of business, or, where federal subject-matter jurisdiction exists, in the United States District Court having jurisdiction over that county.

Each party consents to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts to the extent such consent is legally effective. In less ceremonial English: if you choose to turn a website disagreement into courthouse paperwork and the law lets us choose the courthouse by contract, you do not get to drag us across the country for dramatic effect. The dispute comes here.

20. The Law Still Wins

No provision of these Terms is intended to waive, limit, override, or supersede a right, remedy, defense, jurisdictional rule, venue rule, consumer protection, statutory protection, or other requirement that applicable law makes non-waivable or mandatory.

If these Terms say one thing and controlling non-waivable law says another, controlling law wins. These Terms are a contract, not a constitutional amendment, statute, royal decree, magical scroll, or Infinity Stone.

21. Severability

If a court with proper authority finds any provision unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent lawfully permitted or severed as necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect unless applicable law requires otherwise. One bad brick does not require bulldozing the courthouse.

22. No Waiver

Failure to enforce a provision on one occasion does not automatically waive the right to enforce it later. A waiver is effective only to the extent recognized by applicable law.

23. Changes to These Terms

We may revise these Terms as the Site evolves. The “Last updated” date identifies the current version. Where required by law, materially revised terms will be presented with whatever additional notice or assent process the law requires.

24. Entire Agreement

These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and any additional terms expressly presented for a specific Site feature, constitute the agreement concerning use of the Site to the extent an enforceable agreement exists under applicable law.

25. Contact

Questions, legal notices, rights complaints, and correction requests may be submitted through the contact channels published by DomainSquattersSuck.com.
