Terms & Conditions
Last updated: Dec 5th, 2025
Welcome to my website, the quirky corner of the internet operated by yours truly. By visiting or using this site, you’re agreeing to play by the rules below. If you don’t agree, that’s okay—just close the tab and go pet a dog or something.
1. Use of the Site
You can browse, read, and enjoy this site as long as you:
- Don’t break the internet
- Don’t hack the site
- Don’t copy content without permission
- Don’t do anything you wouldn’t want your grandma to know about
Basically: be a decent human being.
2. Intellectual Property
Everything here—text, images, ideas, and random bursts of creativity—is owned by Chad Calahan unless otherwise stated.
Please don’t:
- Steal it
- Repost it as your own
- Sell it for a profit
If you want to quote or share something, just give proper credit. Authors like attention—it’s kind of our fuel.
3. User Content
If you submit anything—comments, messages, fan mail, love letters—you confirm that:
- You own what you send
- It doesn’t violate copyright or other laws
- And yes, I’m allowed to read it without signing an NDA
Don’t send spam or hate mail. I’m sensitive.
4. Newsletter & Emails
If you sign up for emails, you’re agreeing to receive occasional updates, book announcements, and possibly some shameless self-promotion.
You can unsubscribe anytime, and I won’t hunt you down or guilt-trip you (out loud).
5. No Professional Advice
I’m an author, not your lawyer, doctor, accountant, therapist, or emotional support squirrel. Anything you read here is for entertainment and general info.
Please don’t sue me because you misinterpreted a metaphor.
6. Links to Other Sites
There might be links to other websites. If you click them, you’re leaving my virtual living room and entering someone else’s chaos.
I’m not responsible for what happens there.
7. Disclaimer of Warranties
This website is provided “as is,” which is legal speak for:
- It might have typos
- It might crash
- It might disappear entirely someday
But I’ll try not to let things get too weird.
8. Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, I’m not responsible for:
- Your emotional damage from reading my writing
- Typos that hurt your feelings
- Loss of money, sleep, or dignity
- Anything that happens because you used this site
9. Termination
I reserve the right to ban, block, or remove users who behave badly, break rules, or bring drama. Life’s too short.
10. Changes to These Terms
I may update this page occasionally because websites evolve, laws change, and I learn new mistakes to avoid.
If you keep using the site after changes, that means you’re cool with it.
11. Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of America, because lawyers said so.
