Website Terms of Use

Effective July 23, 2026. These Website Terms of Use ("Website Terms") govern your access to and use of lillory.com and its subpages, including the community forum and the pilot request form (together, the "Website"), operated by Lillory LLC, a Minnesota limited liability company ("Operator," "we," "us"). By using the Website, you agree to these Website Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Website. These Website Terms cover the Website only; the Lillory application at beta.lillory.com is governed by its own Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, which control for that product.

1. Who may use the Website. The Website is intended for adults. You must be at least 18 years old to use it, to submit the pilot form, or to post in the community forum. The Website is not directed to children, and you may not use it to submit any information about a child, including a child's name, age, grade, image, or contact details.

2. What the Website is. The Website provides information about Lillory, lets adults request a pilot seat, offers optional resources, and hosts a moderated community forum where adults can ask and answer questions about reading practice. The Website is informational and does not provide medical, psychological, clinical, legal, or professional advice. Nothing on the Website is a diagnosis, a treatment, or a guarantee of any educational result.

3. Community forum: acceptable use. If you post in the forum, you are responsible for what you submit. You will not post: anything about or identifying a specific child; another person's private or personal information; unlawful, defamatory, harassing, hateful, threatening, obscene, or infringing content; confidential or proprietary material you are not authorized to share; spam, advertising, solicitations, or links to malware; or content that impersonates any person or misrepresents your affiliation. Every post is reviewed by a person before it is published, and we may edit, decline, or remove any post, and suspend access, for any reason or no reason, at our discretion. Posts that are published are public; do not post anything you would not want to be public.

4. Your content and the license you grant. You keep ownership of what you submit ("User Content"). By submitting User Content you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to host, store, reproduce, modify (for formatting and moderation), publish, and display that User Content on the Website and in related materials, for as long as we operate the Website or until you ask us to remove it. You represent and warrant that you own or have the necessary rights to your User Content, that it is accurate and lawful, and that it does not violate these Website Terms or any third party's rights. We do not claim ownership of your User Content, and we are not obligated to publish or keep any submission.

5. Copyright and DMCA notice-and-takedown. We respect intellectual-property rights and respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act ("DMCA"). If you believe content on the Website infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our designated agent at gabe@lillory.com that includes: (a) your physical or electronic signature; (b) identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed; (c) identification of the material claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient to locate it; (d) your contact information; (e) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and (f) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are authorized to act on the owner's behalf. We will remove or disable access to material we determine to be infringing, and we terminate the access of repeat infringers. A person who submits a false notice may be liable for damages. A counter-notification may be submitted to the same contact.

6. Prohibited conduct. You will not: access or use the Website other than through the interfaces we provide; scrape, crawl, harvest, or bulk-download Website content except as a search engine acting under our robots policy; reverse-engineer, probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Website or breach its security or authentication; interfere with or disrupt the Website or its infrastructure; introduce malware; use the Website to send unsolicited communications; or use the Website unlawfully or in violation of these Website Terms.

7. Text-message program. If you provide a mobile number and check the SMS opt-in on the pilot form, you consent to receive text messages from us about the pilot at that number, including messages sent using automated technology. Consent is not a condition of any purchase. Message and data rates may apply; message frequency varies. Reply STOP to opt out and HELP for help. We collect and use your number only as described in the Website Privacy Notice.

8. Intellectual property. The Website and its content, design, text, graphics, illustrations, characters, and software are owned by the Operator or its licensors and are protected by intellectual-property laws; all Lillory content is original. Lillory is an independent product and is NOT affiliated with, endorsed by, or derived from any third-party reading or spelling program. Except for your own User Content, you receive no license to Website content beyond viewing it for your personal, non-commercial use.

9. Third-party links and services. The Website may link to third-party sites and services that we do not control and are not responsible for. Your use of them is governed by their own terms and policies.

10. Disclaimers. THE WEBSITE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant that the Website will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or that any information on it is complete or current. You rely on the Website at your own risk. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain warranty exclusions, so some of the above may not apply to you.

11. Limitation of liability. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, the Operator and its suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of data, goodwill, or profits, arising out of or relating to the Website or these Website Terms; and the Operator's total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Website will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars (US $100). Nothing in these Website Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

12. Indemnification. To the extent permitted by law, you will indemnify and hold harmless the Operator from third-party claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of your User Content, your use of the Website, or your breach of these Website Terms, except to the extent caused by the Operator's own act or omission.

13. Disputes; governing law. Before filing any claim, you agree to first contact us at gabe@lillory.com and try in good faith to resolve the dispute informally for at least thirty (30) days. These Website Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Minnesota, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and the state and federal courts located in Minnesota will have jurisdiction, except where applicable consumer-protection law provides otherwise.

14. Changes; termination; general. We may update these Website Terms; the current version is always posted here with its effective date, and your continued use after a change means you accept it. We may suspend or end your access to the Website at any time. If any provision is held unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. These Website Terms, together with the Website Privacy Notice, are the entire agreement about the Website. Questions: Lillory LLC, attention Gabriel Michalski, at gabe@lillory.com; a postal address is available on request from that email.
