1. Acceptance
By accessing or using Pooplely, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the website. If you use the site on behalf of another person, you confirm that you have authority to do so.
2. The service
Pooplely provides free browser-based word-ladder games, daily answers, progressive hints, a shortest-path solver, guides, and archive pages. No account or purchase is required.
Pooplely is an independent project and is not affiliated with the operators of any other Poople service. Third-party names are used only to identify games, services, or public sources.
3. Gameplay and availability
We aim to provide accurate dictionaries, puzzle schedules, answers, and solver results, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability. Puzzles, data sources, features, and word lists may be updated, corrected, replaced, or withdrawn.
Local game progress and statistics depend on browser storage. Pooplely is not responsible for data lost through clearing browser storage, changing devices, using private browsing, or storage being unavailable.
4. Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- Interfere with the website, its security, or normal operation.
- Use automated requests in a way that overloads the service.
- Attempt unauthorized access to systems or accounts.
- Use the service for unlawful, abusive, or fraudulent activity.
- Misrepresent Pooplely as an official or affiliated service.
We may restrict access when reasonably necessary to protect the site, its users, or third-party services.
5. Intellectual property
The Pooplely name, original text, interface, visual design, and original software are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. The general concept of a word ladder is a traditional puzzle format. Publicly available word data and puzzle facts may be used subject to their applicable terms and attribution requirements.
You may share links and spoiler-free results. You may not represent Pooplely as your own or use its branding in a misleading way.
6. Third-party services
The site uses Cloudflare for hosting and delivery and may load a third-party analytics service. Links may also lead to independent third-party websites. Those services have their own terms and privacy policies, and Pooplely is not responsible for their content or practices.
7. Disclaimers
The service is provided “as is” and “as available” to the fullest extent permitted by law. We disclaim warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, and uninterrupted availability.
8. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Pooplely and its operator will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for loss of data, profits, goodwill, or access arising from use of or inability to use the site. Nothing in these terms limits rights that cannot legally be waived.
9. Changes
We may update these terms as the service changes. The updated date will be shown above. Continued use after a change means you accept the revised terms to the extent permitted by law.

Questions about these terms may be sent to contact@pooplely.com. Information about data handling is available in our Privacy Policy.
