Terms of Use

Effective date: October 26, 2026. By using WordSearchJoy you accept these terms; if you do not agree with them, please do not use the site.

The service

WordSearchJoy provides free, printable word search puzzles and a browser-based puzzle maker. The service is provided "as is" and "as available", and it may change or be discontinued at any time.

No warranty

Puzzles are generated and checked by our own software, but we make no warranty that every grid or answer key is error-free. Verify puzzles before handing them out in a classroom setting.

Intellectual property

The WordSearchJoy name, site design, puzzle grids, word lists, and original text are the property of the site's operator. You may print unlimited copies of any puzzle for your own classroom, church class, or family, and you may link to any page freely. Republishing our puzzles as your own printable products or bundling them for resale requires prior written permission.

Acceptable use

You may use the puzzles and the maker freely for personal and educational purposes. You may not scrape the site at rates that burden it, republish puzzles commercially, or use the site in any way that violates applicable law.

Changes

These terms may be updated as the site evolves; the version published on this page is the version in effect, and the effective date above reflects the latest change.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the service provider is located, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
