I need to add a legal disclaimer to the bottom of my faxes. Where's
a good place to find the right words to use for such a thing?
I personally loved reading this one (for e-mail, not fax):
DISCLAIMER:
IMPORTANT: This email is intended for the use of the individual addressee(s)
named above and may contain information that is confidential privileged or
unsuitable for overly sensitive persons with low self-esteem, no sense of
humor or irrational religious beliefs. If you are not the intended
recipient, any dissemination, distribution or copying of this email is not
authorized (either explicitly or implicitly) and constitutes an irritating
social faux pas. Unless the word absquatulation has been used in its correct
context somewhere other than in this warning, it does not have any legal or
grammatical use and may be ignored. No animals were harmed in the
transmission of this email, although the elaphe next door is living on
borrowed time, let me tell you. Those of you with an overwhelming fear of
the unknown will be gratified to learn that there is no hidden message
revealed by reading this warning backwards, so just ignore that Alert Notice
from Microsoft. However, by pouring a complete circle of salt around
yourself and your computer you can ensure that no harm befalls you and your
pets. If you have received this email in error, please add some nutmeg and
egg whites, whisk and place in a warm oven for 40 minutes.
----
That said, keep it short, sweet, and simple. If you are not the recipient
blahblahblah, please destroy this.
Personally, I'm not sure that email or fax disclaimers are worth much when
it comes right down to it - they just give corporate lawyers a warm fuzzy
feeling.
