Terms of Use

Updated November 10, 2026

Readability Check (readabilitycheck.com) is run by Boringhaus LLC. By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the site.

What the site does

The site scores text with published readability formulas and shows the results. Scores are estimates. Different tools count words, syllables and sentences in different ways, so the same text can score differently elsewhere.

Not legal or professional advice

Pages about laws, regulations and readability targets are general information, not legal advice. Laws change and differ by place. A law may set its own way of counting that does not match this site. Check the official source and ask your own lawyer or compliance team before you rely on a score.

A score or an evidence sheet records a measurement. It does not show that a document meets any law, rule or standard.

Your text

Text you paste and files you open are scored in your browser. The privacy policy explains what is and is not collected. You are responsible for the text you score and for having the right to use it.

Use of the site

Do not use the site to break the law, to attack or overload it, or to collect data from it by automated means beyond normal use. The free embeddable widget may be used under the terms on the embed page.

No warranty

The site is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, to the fullest extent the law allows. We do not promise that it will be accurate, complete, error-free or always available.

Limit of liability

To the fullest extent the law allows, Boringhaus LLC is not liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential loss, or for any loss arising from reliance on a score, page or evidence sheet. Some places do not allow these limits, so they may not apply to you.

Changes

We may change these terms. The date at the top shows the latest version. If paid features are offered, they will come with their own terms.
