Printing and copying the puzzles

Every puzzle and PDF on this site is free to print, photocopy and hand out for personal, home, classroom, library and care home use. You can print as many copies as your group needs. No attribution is required and no payment is due.

What you may not do is sell them, include them in anything you charge for, such as a book, a pack or a download, or republish them on another website. Please link to the puzzle instead.

If you would like to use the puzzles in a way this does not cover, email hello@thepuzzlebrain.com and ask.

Accuracy

Every word search is checked by a program that confirms each word appears in the grid exactly once. Mistakes can still happen. If you find one, we would like to hear about it, and we will fix it.

Everything else on the site

The puzzles, written content and design belong to Vistera Ltd. You are welcome to quote a short passage with a link back.

Advertising

This site carries no advertising at present. If that changes, adverts will be clearly visible as adverts, and the privacy policy will be updated before any advertising cookie is set.

Links to other sites

Where this site links somewhere else, that site is not under our control and we are not responsible for what it does or says.

Availability

We try to keep the site up and the puzzles correct. We cannot promise either without interruption, and puzzles may be changed or removed.

Liability

Vistera Ltd is not liable for any loss arising from the use of this site or of anything printed from it.

Nothing in these terms limits or excludes liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for anything else that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded. Nothing here affects your statutory rights as a consumer.

Changes

These terms may be updated. The date at the top shows when that last happened, and the current version is the one that applies.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the law of England and Wales, and the courts of England and Wales have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them.
