Terms of Use
By using PuzzleTally, you agree to use the site responsibly and review any generated or suggested activity content before sharing it with students, children, guests, or other groups. These Terms of Use are meant to explain the general rules and expectations for using the site.
PuzzleTally offers puzzle makers, printable puzzle pages, themed presets, and supporting articles for educational and recreational use. It is not a promise that every page or output will suit every audience or setting without review.
Permitted Use
You may use PuzzleTally for personal, classroom, tutoring, homeschool, club, camp, event, and general planning purposes. That includes creating printable puzzle activities, browsing articles, and using site guidance to build your own adapted materials.
You may also use the site as a starting point for customizing your own puzzle worksheets, provided you review the resulting material before sharing it with others.
User Responsibility
You are responsible for checking the wording, clues, answer keys, factual accuracy, age fit, accessibility, and general suitability of any activity you create or print. This is especially important when materials are intended for children, students, language learners, or public group settings.
You are also responsible for making sure any custom content you enter into the site does not violate copyright, privacy, or other rights. If you add text from another source, you should have the right to use it.
Generated and Suggested Content
PuzzleTally generators and presets are planning aids. They are not guarantees of educational appropriateness, curriculum alignment, or final publication quality. Some activities may still need editing before they are ready for printing or classroom use.
That means users should treat generated output as a working draft or activity plan unless they have reviewed and approved it for their own use case.
Prohibited Use
You may not use PuzzleTally in ways that are unlawful, abusive, deceptive, or harmful to others. That includes trying to misuse site tools, upload or submit harmful content, scrape or attack the site, or use the site in ways that interfere with normal operation.
You should also avoid using generators to store or process sensitive records, private student information, passwords, financial information, or other confidential material.
Intellectual Property and Content Ownership
The site layout, branding, generator presentation, articles, and original site content remain the property of PuzzleTally or its content owners unless otherwise stated. Users remain responsible for the rights to any custom content they add to a generator.
If you print or adapt an activity for your own classroom or event use, that practical use is fine. Republishing site content at scale, copying pages wholesale, or presenting PuzzleTally materials as your own original site content is not permitted without appropriate permission.
No Guarantee of Availability or Results
PuzzleTally is offered on a general availability basis. We may add, remove, revise, or pause site features, articles, presets, or layouts over time. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access, error-free output, or that every activity format will meet every instructional or event goal.
External Links and Third Parties
Some pages may reference or link to outside tools, services, or resources. PuzzleTally is not responsible for the content, policies, or availability of external sites. If advertising or analytics tools are present, those providers may operate under their own terms and privacy policies.
Limitation of Responsibility
PuzzleTally is a general educational and activity resource. It is not a school system, legal service, curriculum authority, or professional educational advisory service. Users are responsible for deciding whether an activity is appropriate for their own audience and circumstances.
Use of the site is at your own discretion. Review remains essential, especially for factual content, age level, cultural context, and answer accuracy.
