Terms of Service & Disclaimers

1. Fictional Stories and Satire

The Adventures of Handy Brothers features fictional characters, customers, dialogue, events, and situations. Mimo, Tank, and Junior are comic characters, not profiles of actual installers.

Unless a work expressly identifies a real subject, its exaggerated behavior, mistakes, relationships, and misadventures are not intended to portray a particular real person, business, customer, or project. Any unintended resemblance is coincidental.

Familiar tools, services, settings, and everyday experiences may appear as background for fictional storytelling. Their appearance does not turn a fictional scene into a factual allegation.

2. Names, Trademarks, and Non-Affiliation

“The Adventures of Handy Brothers” identifies the fictional series presented by this publication. Similarity between that title or a character name and the name of a real business is not intended to identify that business as the subject of a cartoon.

The use of words such as “handy,” “handyman,” “Handy Brothers,” “Handy Bros,” or similar expressions does not, by itself, indicate affiliation, sponsorship, approval, or endorsement by any company using those words in its name.

Unless expressly stated, a fictional character is not a representative of any actual business. Any actual business relationships must be identified separately; they should not be inferred from a shared word or similar name.

Third-party trademarks and names remain the property of their respective owners. These terms do not claim ownership of ordinary descriptive language or determine the validity or scope of anyone else's trademark rights.

3. Educational Guides and Installation Decisions

Our TV mounting guides provide general planning information and questions to consider. They are not a site inspection, engineering assessment, electrical service, or individualized professional advice.

We cannot identify concealed wiring, pipes, framing, structural conditions, heat exposure, or other property-specific circumstances through a general article.

Before work begins, follow the requirements for your television, mount, and related equipment; confirm property permissions and applicable rules; and obtain qualified assistance where needed. Do not copy unsafe shortcuts depicted in cartoons.

A viewing-height example, diagram, or product discussion is not a drilling template or confirmation that a wall can support an installation.

4. Professional Services and External Links

TV Mounting Humor is a publication. This website does not itself book, quote, supervise, or perform an installation through its editorial pages.

Our Find a Pro resources include links to Handyman Co-op, a separate directory website. Other external links may lead to manufacturers, references, or service providers.

A listing or link alone is not a promise that a provider has been independently vetted, is licensed or insured for your work, or is available at a particular price.

Confirm experience, credentials where relevant, insurance, service area, complete price, and scope directly with the provider. Contracts, payments, scheduling, warranties, and disputes involving third-party work are governed by the applicable provider's agreement and law.

External sites have their own terms, privacy practices, and content. We do not guarantee their continuing availability, accuracy, or performance.

5. Artwork, Stories, and Permitted Use

Original text, artwork, character designs, and other material are protected to the extent applicable law provides. Rights belong to their respective owners. No ownership of third-party material is claimed.

You may view the website for personal use and share links to its publicly available pages. Except where permitted by law or an express license, do not republish complete strips, sell reproductions, remove ownership notices, or use the characters or branding to imply our endorsement.

Nothing here restricts fair use, lawful quotation, criticism, commentary, accessibility rights, or other uses protected by applicable law.

6. Responsible Website Use

Do not use this website to distribute malicious code, gain unauthorized access, disrupt its operation, impersonate another person, or violate another party's legal rights.

Do not present our fictional scenes as evidence of actual misconduct by a real person or business. We may take reasonable steps to protect the website and address unlawful or abusive activity.

7. Accuracy and Availability

We aim to publish useful, understandable information, but errors, omissions, outdated references, and technical interruptions may occur. Content may be revised or removed.

To the extent permitted by law, the website and its content are provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of uninterrupted availability, completeness, or fitness for a particular project. This does not override an express promise we make or any warranty that cannot lawfully be excluded.

8. Limitations of Liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law and any enforceable agreement, the website operator, publisher, and contributors will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential losses arising from use of this website, including lost profits, lost data, or business interruption.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for fraud, willful misconduct, gross negligence, or any injury, obligation, or liability that applicable law does not allow us to exclude or limit. Where a limitation is not permitted, applicable law controls.

9. Limited Indemnification for Misuse

If these terms form an enforceable agreement with you, and to the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify the website operator, publisher, and contributors for reasonable third-party claims, damages, and legal costs to the extent caused by your unlawful use of the website, knowing infringement of another party's rights, or material breach of these terms.

This provision does not require you to cover claims caused by our own content, negligence, misconduct, or violation of law. It does not apply merely because you read the site, disagree with a cartoon, make a good-faith complaint, or exercise a legal right.

Where this provision applies, we will provide reasonable notice and an opportunity to participate in the response. We will not agree to a settlement imposing an admission, payment, or other obligation on you without your consent.

10. Corrections and Rights Concerns

Our Contact page identifies currently available contact methods. At present, online submissions are unavailable.

We recognize that this limits direct feedback. The absence of an online form does not waive anyone's rights, shorten a legal deadline, or require use of this website before pursuing a lawful remedy.

If a contact channel becomes available, useful information for a concern includes the page URL, the specific material involved, the nature of the concern, and a way to respond.

11. Updates and Remaining Provisions

We may update these terms and identify the revised effective date on this page. Revisions do not retroactively remove accrued rights. Additional notice or agreement will be obtained where required.

If a provision is unenforceable, the remaining provisions apply to the extent permitted by law. These terms do not impose mandatory arbitration or waive access to courts, regulators, or non-waivable consumer protections.
