Licensing Policy

Every puzzle, grid, preview image and printable PDF on wordsearchzoo.com is original work, generated and curated in-house, and is protected by copyright. Here is exactly what you can and cannot do with it, in plain language.

You CAN, for free

• Play any puzzle on the site, as often as you like.
• Download and print any puzzle PDF or solution PDF for personal use at home.
• Print copies for your classroom, library, after-school club, tutoring or therapy practice, as many as you need, every year, at no cost.
• Display a puzzle on a classroom whiteboard or projector, or link to a puzzle from Google Classroom, a class blog or a school website.
• Share a link to any page of this site on social media, blogs or school newsletters.

You CANNOT

• Sell our PDFs or puzzle images, or include them in paid products, bundles, printables shops or subscriptions.
• Re-upload our PDFs or images to other websites, marketplaces (for example TpT, Etsy), print-on-demand services or file-sharing sites. Link to the puzzle page instead: that keeps it free for everyone.
• Remove the wordsearchzoo.com footer from a PDF, or crop it out of a preview image.
• Claim the puzzles as your own, or republish them under another name.
• Use the puzzles or images to train or fine-tune machine learning models.

Attribution

Attribution is not required for personal or classroom use. The small footer on each PDF is enough. If you feature us in a blog post, a resource list or a school newsletter, a link to wordsearchzoo.com is always appreciated, never demanded.

For any other use, including commercial licensing, contact us. We are friendly and answer quickly.
