Terms of Service & User Agreement

Last Updated: December 2024 (or whenever the hamsters finished typing this)

IMPORTANT NOTICE

By accessing 12DailyBro, you acknowledge that this is a satirical art project and nostalgia experience. NostalgiaBux have no real monetary value. You cannot withdraw real money. This is not an investment. If you're looking for actual financial returns, please consult a licensed financial advisor and maybe also a therapist.

1. Acceptance of Terms (The Part Where You Agree to Stuff)

By accessing or using 12DailyBro ("the Site," "this glorious monument to internet history," "the bro zone"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please navigate away using your browser's back button, AOL keyword, or carrier pigeon.

Your continued use of the Site constitutes acceptance of these terms, our Privacy Policy, and the general understanding that we're all here to have a good time remembering when the internet was weird.

2. Description of Service (What We Actually Do Here)

12DailyBro is a parody and educational project that recreates the look, feel, and mechanics of early 2000s autosurf and HYIP (High Yield Investment Program) websites. The Site allows users to:

  • Create accounts and accumulate "NostalgiaBux" (a fictional, worthless currency)
  • Participate in a simulated "autosurf" experience
  • Compete on leaderboards for bragging rights only
  • Experience the nostalgia of Web 1.0 design aesthetics
  • Learn about the history of internet financial scams (without losing real money)

12DailyBro is NOT: An investment platform, a money transmission service, a securities offering, a bank, a credit union, a hedge fund, a cryptocurrency, or anything that involves real money in any way, shape, or form.

3. NostalgiaBux (The Fake Money Section)

NostalgiaBux ("NBX," "fake internet points," "digital vibes") are a fictional in-game currency with absolutely zero real-world value. Let us be crystal clear:

  • NostalgiaBux cannot be exchanged for real money
  • NostalgiaBux cannot be withdrawn to any payment processor
  • NostalgiaBux cannot be sold, traded, or bartered for goods or services
  • NostalgiaBux are worth exactly $0.00 USD (and every other currency)
  • Any "12% daily returns" referenced are part of the parody and are paid in worthless NostalgiaBux

If anyone attempts to buy or sell NostalgiaBux for real money, they are doing so against our terms and are frankly missing the entire point of this website.

4. User Accounts (The Signup Stuff)

To participate in 12DailyBro, you may create an account. When registering, you agree to:

  • Provide accurate information (or at least a working email address)
  • Maintain the security of your password (we recommend something stronger than "password123")
  • Accept responsibility for all activities under your account
  • Not create multiple accounts to game the leaderboard (c'mon bro, that's not cool)
  • Be at least 13 years of age (or whatever age your jurisdiction requires for internet usage)

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, spam the system, or just generally harsh the vibe.

5. Prohibited Activities (Don't Be That Guy)

You agree NOT to:

  • Use bots, scripts, or automated tools to surf (the hamsters will know)
  • Attempt to exploit bugs or vulnerabilities (please report them instead, we'll give you bonus NostalgiaBux)
  • Harass, threaten, or be mean to other users
  • Impersonate 12DailyBro staff or claim affiliation with LifeClicks LLC (which is also fictional)
  • Use the Site for any illegal purpose
  • Attempt to convince others that NostalgiaBux have real value
  • Create pyramid schemes within our parody of a pyramid scheme (that's too meta even for us)

6. Intellectual Property (The Legal Boring Bits)

The 12DailyBro name, logo, and original content are owned by the Site operators. The Site's design is intentionally derivative of early 2000s web aesthetics for parody and commentary purposes as protected under fair use doctrine.

Various GIFs used on this site are sourced from the Internet Archive's GifCities collection and are used for historical/educational purposes. If you own a GIF and want it removed, contact us and we'll replace it with an equally nostalgic alternative.

Windows sound effects are used for parody purposes. Microsoft, if you're reading this: we love you, please don't sue us, we grew up on Windows 95.

7. Disclaimer of Warranties (The "Please Don't Sue Us" Section)

THE SITE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT:

  • The Site will be uninterrupted or error-free (the hamsters need breaks)
  • The Site will be free of viruses or harmful components (though we try our best)
  • Any NostalgiaBux you earn will still exist tomorrow (database corruption happens, bro)
  • The autosurf timer is scientifically accurate (it's vibes-based)

YOUR USE OF THE SITE IS AT YOUR OWN RISK. We are not responsible for any disappointment you experience upon realizing you cannot actually buy a yacht with NostalgiaBux.

8. Limitation of Liability (More Legal Protection)

IN NO EVENT SHALL 12DAILYBRO, ITS OPERATORS, THE HAMSTERS, OR ANYONE ELSE INVOLVED BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO:

  • Loss of profits (you weren't making any real ones here anyway)
  • Loss of data (back up your stuff, people)
  • Loss of goodwill (we hope you still like us)
  • Emotional distress from not being #1 on the leaderboard
  • Any damages arising from your use or inability to use the Site

Our total liability shall not exceed the amount you paid us, which is $0.00, because this is free.

9. Indemnification (You've Got Our Back, Right?)

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless 12DailyBro and its operators from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your use of the Site, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of another user.

Basically: if you do something dumb and someone sues us because of it, you're covering the legal bills. So please don't do dumb things.

10. Privacy (What We Do With Your Data)

We collect minimal data necessary to operate the Site (email, username, password hash). We don't sell your data because honestly that seems like a lot of work and we're busy maintaining a parody website.

For full details, see our Privacy Policy (coming soon, probably, the hamsters are still drafting it).

11. Modifications to Terms (We Might Change Stuff)

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be announced via the Site. Your continued use after such modifications constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

We promise to not change them to anything evil. Pinky swear.

12. Governing Law (The Jurisdiction Part)

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Internet (which aren't real laws), and practically speaking, the laws of wherever our servers happen to be located.

Any disputes shall be resolved through aggressive posting on a forum that no longer exists, followed by binding arbitration if absolutely necessary.

13. Severability (If Something's Invalid)

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.

14. Entire Agreement (That's All, Folks)

These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and 12DailyBro regarding your use of the Site and supersede all prior agreements, representations, and understandings.

Historical Context

The original 12DailyPro (2005-2006) was shut down by the SEC after collecting over $50 million from users who believed they could earn 12% daily returns. Its founder, Charis Johnson, was charged with wire fraud. This parody exists to preserve the memory of this bizarre era of internet history and educate users about the psychology of financial scams. Learn more at the Wikipedia article.

By using 12DailyBro, you confirm that you've read these Terms, understood them (mostly), and agree to be bound by them (in a non-legally-binding, it's-all-fake kind of way).
