Terms of Service

Effective date: June 12, 2026 · Revised October 9, 2026 to add Section 4A (Third-Party Media and Embeds) · Including California Consumer Disclosures

1. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS

By accessing or using XBrainrot (the "Site"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.

2. NATURE OF CONTENT

XBrainrot is an independent linguistic observatory that catalogues internet slang, memes, and culture for entertainment, reference, and educational purposes. Definitions, scores (including Brainrot Score and Aura Impact), and trend data are editorial estimates and do not constitute professional, linguistic, or statistical advice. See our Methodology page for details on how ratings are derived.

3. USER CONDUCT

You agree not to misuse the Site, including by attempting to disrupt its operation, scraping content at scale without permission, or submitting unlawful, abusive, or infringing content through any voting or feedback features.

4. INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY

All original text, character illustrations, scoring frameworks, and design elements on XBrainrot are the property of XBrainrot Media Group unless otherwise noted. Slang terms themselves are part of the public domain of internet culture and are documented here for reference purposes.

4A. THIRD-PARTY MEDIA AND EMBEDS

Some pages show videos hosted by other platforms, currently YouTube. When a page shows a preview image for a YouTube video, your browser requests that image from YouTube's servers as soon as the page opens. As with any request to another site, YouTube receives your IP address and browser details; we do not send a referrer with that request.

The video player itself is not loaded until you click play. It then loads from youtube-nocookie.com, YouTube's privacy-enhanced embed domain, and the player can see which site it is embedded on. YouTube's Terms of Service and Google's Privacy Policy apply to what the image request and the player collect, and we do not control it.

Embeds from other platforms, where we use them, are also loaded only after you click play, and they show no preview image from the platform.

See the YouTube Terms of Service and the Google Privacy Policy.

5. CALIFORNIA CONSUMER DISCLOSURES

If you are a California resident, the following disclosures apply pursuant to the California Consumer Privacy Act (CCPA), as amended, and California Civil Code Section 1789.3:

Right to Delete:You may request deletion of personal information we hold about you, subject to legal exceptions.

6. DISCLAIMER & LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

The Site is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. XBrainrot shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of, or reliance on, content found on the Site.
