Last updated: July 20, 2026

These Terms and Conditions explain the rules for using ripkord42.com and any related private messaging, notification, or automation features operated under the RipKord42 name.

Short version: RipKord42 is a personal website and private automation project. It is not a public product, software-as-a-service platform, managed service, consulting service, emergency service, or commercial messaging service for external parties.

1. Who operates this site

RipKord42 is operated by Mike as a personal website and private automation environment.

Privacy Policy: https://ripkord42.com/privacy
Contact page: https://ripkord42.com/contact

2. No services offered to the public

RipKord42 does not offer services to external parties.

Nothing on this website creates an offer to provide hosting, consulting, software access, automation, SMS messaging, alerts, monitoring, technical support, or any other service to the public.

Any private tools, automations, notifications, or messaging features associated with RipKord42 are intended only for the site operator and specifically authorized personal use cases.

3. SMS and messaging terms

RipKord42 may use SMS or similar messaging for private, user-requested notifications and operational messages.

By providing or approving a phone number for messaging, you agree that RipKord42 may send messages related to the requested notification, alert, or automation.

Message frequency varies based on the requested use case. Messages may be occasional, event-driven, or operational in nature.

Message and data rates may apply depending on your mobile carrier and plan.

You can opt out of SMS messages at any time by replying:

  • STOP to unsubscribe
  • HELP for help or support information

SMS messaging is not used for public marketing campaigns, lead generation, cold outreach, or third-party advertising.

4. No emergency or safety-critical use

RipKord42 is not an emergency service, medical service, security service, financial advisory service, or safety-critical monitoring system.

Do not rely on RipKord42 for emergencies, urgent safety matters, time-critical medical decisions, financial transactions, or any situation where a missed, delayed, incorrect, or unavailable message could cause harm.

If there is an emergency, contact the appropriate emergency services directly.

5. Acceptable use

You agree not to use or attempt to use RipKord42 to:

  • Break the law
  • Send spam, harassment, threats, or unwanted messages
  • Attempt unauthorized access to systems or data
  • Interfere with the website or related infrastructure
  • Misrepresent your identity or authority
  • Use private automations or messaging features without permission

Because RipKord42 is not a public service, unauthorized use may be blocked, ignored, logged, or reported as appropriate.

6. Accounts and access

RipKord42 does not provide public user accounts or general public access to private tools.

Access to any private area, automation, API, messaging workflow, or administrative feature is by explicit permission only. Permission can be revoked at any time.

7. Content and information

Website content is provided for general personal, informational, or experimental purposes. It may be incomplete, outdated, wrong, weirdly specific, or changed without notice.

You may link to public pages on ripkord42.com, but you may not imply endorsement, partnership, sponsorship, or service availability without written permission.

8. Privacy

Use of the website and SMS messaging is also governed by the Privacy Policy:

https://ripkord42.com/privacy

The Privacy Policy explains what information may be collected, how it is used, and how SMS opt-in and opt-out information is handled.

9. Third-party providers

RipKord42 may depend on third-party providers such as web hosts, domain providers, telecommunications providers, SMS platforms, email providers, analytics, logging, or security tools.

Those providers may have their own terms and privacy policies. RipKord42 is not responsible for third-party services, outages, delays, policies, or failures.

10. No warranties

RipKord42 is provided “as is” and “as available.”

No warranties are made, express or implied, including warranties of availability, reliability, accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, or uninterrupted operation.

In plain English: this is a private personal system, not a polished public product with a service-level agreement and a support desk wearing tiny little ties.

11. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, RipKord42 and its operator are not liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, consequential, special, exemplary, or punitive damages arising from use of, inability to use, or reliance on the website or related messaging and automation features.

This includes, but is not limited to, lost data, missed messages, delayed notifications, incorrect information, service interruptions, or third-party provider failures.

12. Changes to these terms

These Terms and Conditions may be updated from time to time. Updates will be posted on this page with a new “Last updated” date.

Continued use of the website or any authorized messaging feature after changes are posted means you accept the updated terms.
