Description of Service
Elite Word Search is a free, browser-based word search puzzle generator. The service allows you to create custom puzzles from your own word lists or choose from 4463 premade themes, and download them as PDF files. All puzzle generation happens locally in your browser — no data is sent to our servers.

Puzzles you create using Elite Word Search are yours to use freely. You may use generated puzzles for any purpose, including:
- Personal enjoyment
- Classroom activities and educational settings
- Sharing with friends, family, or students
- Publishing in newsletters, books, or other media
- Commercial use (e.g., activity books, paid worksheets)
No attribution is required, though it is appreciated.

Intellectual Property
The Elite Word Search website, including its design, code, and branding, is the property of Elite Word Search. The premade theme names and word lists are curated by us but consist of common vocabulary and are not individually copyrightable. The puzzles themselves — the specific grid layouts generated by the algorithm — are unique each time and are yours to keep.
Advertising
Elite Word Search displays advertisements via Google AdSense to support the free service. Ads appear only on the website — never on downloaded PDF puzzles. By using the site, you acknowledge that ads may be displayed during your visit.
Disclaimer of Warranties
Elite Word Search is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not guarantee that the site will be available at all times, error-free, or that generated puzzles will meet any specific requirements. We make no warranty regarding the accuracy, completeness, or reliability of any content.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Elite Word Search and its creators shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of or inability to use the service. This includes, but is not limited to, damages for loss of profits, data, or other intangible losses.
Children
Elite Word Search is safe for users of all ages. The site collects no personal data and requires no accounts. Parents and educators can allow children to use the site without concern. For more details, see our Privacy Policy.
Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms of Service from time to time. Changes will be posted on this page with a new "Last updated" date. Continued use of the site after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the revised terms.
Governing Law
