Terms of Use
Welcome to Lily Library. These Terms of Use (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Danlily.ai, LLC (“Danlily.ai,” “we,” “us”) covering lilylibrary.com and its subdomains (the “Site”). By using the Site you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Site.
1. Who may use the Site
The Site is free and open to readers of all ages. Children under 13 should use it with a parent or guardian’s permission, and parents and guardians are responsible for the content their children choose to read or play. Some books, especially classic literature for older readers, contain mature themes, historical language and attitudes that reflect their time; we try to note the intended audience, but please use your judgment.
2. What we provide
Lily Library provides free e-books and browser games. Many of the books are classic works in the public domain in the United States; we present them in our own digital editions. We may add, change or remove books, games and features at any time without notice.
3. Accounts
You do not need an account to use the Site. If we introduce optional accounts or member features, additional terms may apply and you will be asked to agree to them before you sign up. You will need to provide accurate information and keep your login details confidential, and you will be responsible for activity under your account. Accounts will not be offered to children under 13 without verifiable parental consent.
4. Our content and your permitted use
- Public-domain texts. The underlying text of public-domain books is free for anyone to use under U.S. law. Our claims relate only to what we add.
- What we own. The Site’s design, code, page layouts, page-turning readers, original books, illustrations, games, logos, and the compilation and selection of titles are owned by Danlily.ai or its licensors and are protected by copyright and other laws. Some games are credited to other creators and used under their own licenses.
- License to you. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to read the books and play the games for your personal, non-commercial use.
- What you may not do without our written permission: copy, resell or redistribute our code, designs, original works or games; frame or mirror the Site; use automated tools to scrape the Site or to build datasets or train machine-learning models; or remove copyright or attribution notices.
Sharing a link to a book or game, and quoting short portions with credit, is always welcome.
5. Acceptable use
You agree to use the Site lawfully and respectfully. You will not: attempt to hack, overload or disrupt the Site; introduce malware; probe for vulnerabilities; bypass security; use the Site to harass others; or use it for any illegal purpose. We may block access to anyone who does.
6. Ads, links and third-party content
The Site displays third-party advertising and may link to other sites. We do not control or endorse third-party ads, sites or services and are not responsible for them. Your dealings with advertisers or other sites are between you and them.
7. Feedback and submissions
If you send us comments, ideas or other material (“Feedback”), you give us a free, perpetual right to use it to run and improve the Site without any obligation to you. Please do not send us anything you do not have the right to share. If we add features that let you post content, we will ask you to agree to additional rules first.
8. Copyright complaints
We respect intellectual property rights. If you believe material on the Site infringes your copyright, email kparks@lilylibrary.com with: your contact details; a description of the work and where it appears on the Site (a link); a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized; a statement, under penalty of perjury, that your notice is accurate and that you are the owner or authorized to act for the owner; and your signature. We will review notices and may remove material, and we may end access for repeat infringers.
9. Disclaimer of warranties
The Site is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not promise that the Site will be uninterrupted, error-free or secure, or that texts are free from errors or omissions introduced in digitizing old books.
10. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Danlily.ai and its members, managers, employees and affiliates will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use the Site. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Site will not exceed $100. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of these may not apply to you, and nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.
11. Changes to the Site and these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the new version here with a new “Last updated” date, and for material changes we will give notice on the Site. Using the Site after the effective date means you accept the updated Terms.
12. Suspension and termination
We may suspend or end your access to all or part of the Site at any time, for any reason, including violation of these Terms. Sections that by their nature should continue (ownership, disclaimers, limits of liability, governing law) will survive.
13. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey and applicable U.S. federal law, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Before filing a claim, please contact us at the email below so we can try to resolve it informally. Any dispute that cannot be resolved informally will be brought in the state or federal courts located in New Jersey, and you and we consent to their jurisdiction, except that either party may seek relief in small-claims court where eligible.
14. General
These Terms and the Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and us about the Site. If any part is found unenforceable, the rest stays in effect. Our not enforcing a provision is not a waiver of it. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a business transfer.
15. Accessibility
We want the Site to be usable by everyone. If you have trouble reading a book or using a feature, tell us at the email below and we will work with you.
