Terms of Service

Last updated: July 2, 2026

1. Acceptance of these terms

By visiting first-lines.com and playing our games, you agree to these terms of service and to our privacy policy. If you don’t agree with them, please don’t use the site.

2. The service

First Lines provides free, browser-based daily guessing games. The service is offered “as is” and “as available”: we work to keep it online and accurate, but we don’t guarantee uninterrupted access, error-free puzzles, or that any particular feature will remain available.

3. Acceptable use

When using the site you agree not to:

4. Intellectual property

The First Lines name, design, game format, and original text are our property. Quoted opening lines and lyrics remain the property of their respective authors, publishers, and rights holders; brief excerpts are used for the purposes of commentary, education, and the quiz format. If you are a rights holder with a concern, please contact us and we will respond promptly.

5. Your game data

Game statistics and daily progress are stored locally in your own browser and never leave your device. Clearing your browser storage deletes them; we cannot restore lost stats.

6. Advertising and third parties

The site is supported by advertising served by third-party partners. Their collection and use of data is described in our privacy policy. We are not responsible for the content of external sites linked from First Lines.

7. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, First Lines and its creator are not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the site. The site is a free entertainment service; your sole remedy for dissatisfaction is to stop using it.

8. Changes

We may update these terms from time to time. Changes take effect when posted on this page with a revised “last updated” date. Continued use of the site after changes means you accept the updated terms.
