Agreement and scope

By using Alsmiller.com, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the site. These terms cover the personal site, its articles, and its linked resources; separate services may have separate terms.

Informational content

The site shares personal experience, commentary, and educational material. It is not legal, financial, medical, investment, or other professional advice, and it does not create a fiduciary, professional, employment, partnership, or client relationship. Verify information and consult an appropriate professional before acting on a decision that carries material risk.

Intellectual property

Unless stated otherwise, site text, design, graphics, marks, and original materials belong to Charlie Alsmiller or are used with permission. You may link to pages and quote brief portions with clear attribution. Republishing, selling, scraping for a competing content product, or using substantial portions without permission is not allowed.

Acceptable use

Do not interfere with the site, probe or bypass security, introduce malicious code, misrepresent affiliation, violate another person's rights, or use automated access in a way that imposes an unreasonable load. Lawful search indexing and accessibility tools are permitted.

External links

Links to social platforms, booksellers, companies, and other sites are provided for convenience and attribution. Charlie does not control those services and is not responsible for their content, availability, security, or practices. A link is not necessarily an endorsement.

Disclaimers and liability

The site is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of accuracy, completeness, fitness, or uninterrupted availability to the fullest extent allowed by law. To that same extent, Charlie Alsmiller will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from use of the site. Rights that cannot lawfully be waived remain unaffected.

Changes and governing law

Content and these terms may change. Continued use after a posted update means you accept the revised terms. These terms are governed by Texas law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be brought in a court with proper jurisdiction in Texas, unless applicable law requires otherwise.
