The short version

As described below: We use your personal information as this Privacy Statement describes. No matter where you are, where you live, or your citizenship, we provide a high standard of privacy protection to all our users worldwide, regardless of their country of origin or location.

Of course, this short version doesn’t tell you everything, so please read for more details.

Acceptable use

  • Please use either your real name or your social media login
  • Try to Follow Thumper’s Rule (do the best you can)
  • Don’t stalk people unless you like restraining orders
  • Be well-mannered, or we’ll delete your stupid comment and ridicule your upbringing
  • Narcissists go somewhere else unless you’re self-deprecating and then, by all means, please stay

  • Inane, obscure, and/or irrelevant comments are OK if you follow these rules.

Notice of intent

This website is for entertainment purposes only. Please do not let your children use this site. If something in one of the stories you see here is not true, that would mean it’s fiction. You can still do that without censorship – create fiction. You may see satire, and that’s OK, too. If this offends you, you may want to look at better ways to use your time than run-of-the-mill indignation. Your Chi will improve. This sentence legally follows the one preceding it.

Any campaign revenue that generates funds other than from traditional Fazzler advertising will be donated to local charities. Examples would be mock GoFundme fund-raising or donation requests for donation for mock causes. Everything else we keep to stock the booze closet.

Any persons mentioned in our copy bearing a resemblance to persons living or dead is a mere coincidence and probably a creation in your overactive imagination. Remember, the Internet is not about you and your relatively insignificant life, although we understand how you might feel that way. We certainly do. Occasionally, we might use real people and call them out by name, in which case they probably deserve it. And they probably like the attention anyway. By law, you must not read the preceding paragraph.


Litigation Notice

Please do not sue us. Here’s why. The First Amendment protects parody and satire as free speech and expression. Fazzler uses invented names in all of their stories, except in cases where public figures are being satirized. Any other use of real names is accidental and coincidental. Third, Fazzler is not intended for readers under 18 years of age or people that don’t have a maturity level of at least 18 years of age.
