6. Educational and Classroom Use
Teachers using the Classroom tier are responsible for obtaining any necessary consents from students and their parents or guardians, and for complying with applicable school, district, and legal requirements. Invite codes should be shared only with intended participants.
7. Intellectual Property
The Service, including its design, text, graphics, and software, is owned by us or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. Official word lists and study content are provided for personal, educational practice only.
8. Disclaimers
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or that content (including definitions, pronunciations, or word lists) is complete or accurate. The Spelling Bee Hub is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Scripps or the Scripps National Spelling Bee.
9. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, use, or goodwill, arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service will not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve months before the claim.
10. Termination
You may stop using the Service at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms or if we discontinue the Service. Certain provisions survive termination, including intellectual property, disclaimers, and limitation of liability.
11. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. If we make material changes, we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
