Terms of Use
The agreement between you and us when you use wordscounterai.com.
1. About these terms
These Terms of Use ("Terms") govern your access to and use of wordscounterai.com (the "Site") and the word counter, character counter and readability tools ("Service") provided on it. By using the Site you agree to these Terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the Site.
These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales. Any dispute will be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of England and Wales.
2. Who we are
The Site is operated by Chris Clark, based in Bolton, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom. Contact: hello@wordscounterai.com.
3. Use of the Service
3.1 Permitted use
You may use the Service for any lawful personal, academic or commercial purpose — counting words for essays, blog posts, social media captions, business documents, marketing copy, technical writing and similar tasks.
3.2 Prohibited use
You agree not to:
- Use the Service in a way that breaks any law or regulation in your jurisdiction.
- Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the Site, our servers, or any connected systems.
- Use automated tools, bots or scrapers to interact with the Site at a rate that could disrupt the Service for other users.
- Reverse engineer, decompile or otherwise attempt to extract the source code of the Service except where permitted by law.
- Reproduce, copy, sell or resell any portion of the Site or its content beyond what is reasonable for personal use.
- Use the Service to process content that you do not have the right to process (for example, copyrighted material you do not own or have a licence to).
4. Your content
The text you paste into the Service is processed entirely in your browser. We do not receive, store, or have access to your text in any form. You retain all rights in any text you process. See our Privacy Policy for full details.
5. Accuracy of results
We make every reasonable effort to ensure word counts, character counts, sentence counts and readability scores are accurate. However:
- Results are provided for guidance only.
- Different counting methods (for example, what counts as a "word" in different style guides) can produce slightly different results.
- Readability scores are statistical estimates, not absolute measures of clarity.
- You are responsible for verifying that any output meets your specific requirements (for example, a publisher's submission rules or a school's word-count limit).
6. Availability
We aim to keep the Service available 24/7, but cannot guarantee uninterrupted availability. The Service may be temporarily unavailable for maintenance, hosting issues, or events outside our control. We reserve the right to modify, suspend or discontinue any part of the Service at any time without notice.
7. Advertising and third-party links
This Site is funded in part by advertising served via Google AdSense and may include affiliate links to third-party products. Where a link is an affiliate link, we may earn a commission if you make a qualifying purchase, at no additional cost to you. We are not responsible for the content or practices of third-party sites — please review their own terms and privacy policies.
8. Intellectual property
All Site content (excluding text you paste in), including the brand name, logo, copy, code, design and visual elements, is owned by Words Counter AI / Chris Clark or licensed to us. You may not copy, redistribute or reuse it without our written permission, except for normal browsing and personal reference.
9. Disclaimer and limitation of liability
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including but not limited to fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or non-infringement.
To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, including any loss of data, business or profits, arising from your use of (or inability to use) the Service.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, fraud, or any other liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
10. Indemnity
You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from any claim or demand arising from your breach of these Terms or your misuse of the Service.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be flagged on the homepage. Continued use of the Site after a change means you accept the updated Terms.
