Legal Notice

Last updated: June 18, 2026

This Legal Notice applies to 404department.com and all content, products, pages, forms, and services provided by 404 Department.

By using this website, you agree to this Legal Notice, along with our Terms of Service, Privacy Policy, Shipping Policy, and Return & Refund Policy.

1. Website operator

This website is operated by:

404 Department
Website: 404department.com
Email: 404departmentinfo@gmail.com

When this notice says “we,” “us,” or “our,” it means 404 Department.

2. General information

The content on this website is provided for general information, shopping, brand, and entertainment purposes.

We try to keep product details, pricing, shipping information, policies, and website content accurate and updated. However, errors may happen.

404 Department reserves the right to update, correct, remove, or change website content, product information, pricing, availability, policies, or other details at any time without notice.

The system may be unstable. We still try to keep the store functional.

3. No professional advice

Nothing on this website is intended to be legal, financial, medical, technical, career, or professional advice.

Our shirts may reference code, errors, debugging, unstable systems, sleep deprivation, burnout, relationships, or life falling apart in real time. That is brand language and humor, not professional guidance.

If you need professional advice, contact a qualified professional.

4. Intellectual property

All content on this website belongs to 404 Department or its respective owners unless otherwise stated.

This includes, but is not limited to:

  • Brand names

  • Logos

  • Product designs

  • Shirt graphics

  • Product names

  • Website copy

  • Images

  • Graphics

  • Layouts

  • Drop names

  • Marketing content

  • Original phrases created by 404 Department

You may not copy, reproduce, modify, distribute, sell, upload, publish, imitate, or use our content without written permission.

Buying a product does not give you ownership of the design, brand, artwork, phrase, or intellectual property connected to that product.

You can wear the shirt. You cannot steal the source code.

5. User submissions

If you submit a joke, shirt idea, error-message line, tagline, design concept, comment, review, photo, social post, or other content to 404 Department, you are responsible for making sure you have the right to submit it.

You agree not to submit anything that:

  • Belongs to someone else without permission

  • Violates copyrights, trademarks, privacy rights, or other legal rights

  • Includes confidential or private information

  • Contains harmful, abusive, illegal, or misleading material

  • Contains someone else’s personal information without permission

Submitting an idea does not guarantee selection, payment, credit, release, or collaboration.

If a submission is selected for a paid product release, any payment, credit, or profit-share terms must be confirmed separately in writing by 404 Department.

6. Product information

We try to represent our products accurately, including colors, sizing, materials, descriptions, print placement, and product images.

However, product appearance may vary based on screen settings, lighting, garment blanks, print providers, production methods, and normal manufacturing differences.

404 Department does not guarantee that every product will look exactly the same on every screen, body, mockup, or order.

7. Third-party services

404 Department may use third-party services to operate the website, process payments, fulfill orders, ship products, collect analytics, manage emails, run ads, or provide customer support.

These may include platforms such as Shopify, Printify, payment processors, shipping carriers, analytics tools, advertising platforms, and other service providers.

We are not responsible for third-party websites, services, policies, delays, outages, errors, or actions outside our control.

If you click a third-party link, use a third-party service, or interact with another platform, their terms and policies may apply.

8. External links

Our website may include links to social media pages, third-party platforms, partner tools, or other websites.

These links are provided for convenience and brand connection. We do not control third-party websites and are not responsible for their content, privacy practices, security, or policies.

If you leave 404department.com, you are entering someone else’s system.

9. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent allowed by law, 404 Department is not responsible for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, punitive, or unexpected damages arising from your use of the website, purchase of products, reliance on website content, shipping delays, third-party services, technical issues, or inability to access the website.

Our total liability for any claim related to a product or order will not exceed the amount paid for the product involved in that claim.

Some laws may not allow certain limitations, so some parts of this section may not apply to you.

10. Website availability

We do not guarantee that the website will always be available, uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or fully functional.

The website may be affected by maintenance, updates, technical issues, third-party outages, hosting problems, internet failures, or other events outside our control.

If the site breaks, we will try to debug it. No promises that the compiler will cooperate instantly.

11. Changes to this notice

404 Department may update this Legal Notice from time to time.

If we make changes, we will update the “Last updated” date at the top of this page.

Your continued use of the website after changes are posted means you accept the updated Legal Notice.
