Site terms

Terms of Use

These terms explain acceptable use for the Poople game, solver, archive, leaderboard, comment wall, and challenge features.

Last updated: August 9, 2026

Use of the site

Poople is provided for entertainment, puzzle practice, route study, and community comparison. You may use the game board, hints, solver, archives, unlimited practice, and challenge links for normal personal play.

Community submissions

If you submit a leaderboard name, score, reaction, or note, you give Poople permission to display, moderate, remove, and use that submission as part of the site experience. Do not submit personal information, contact details, links, hateful content, explicit content, harassment, threats, spam, or content that violates another person's rights.

Leaderboard fairness

Do not use bots, automated requests, fake clients, score manipulation, repeated abuse, or other methods intended to inflate leaderboard results. Scores that appear implausible, use direct reveals, or violate fair-play rules may be hidden from public rankings.

Advertising policy expectations

Do not encourage artificial interaction with advertisements, repeated ad views, page refreshing for ad activity, or automated behavior around ads. If ads appear on Poople, they should remain distinguishable from navigation, game controls, and content.

Content accuracy

Poople validates observed daily start data and recomputes route analysis from the accepted word graph, but source updates, calculations, links, and community submissions may still contain mistakes or delays. Report reproducible errors through the Contact page. Use the site as a puzzle helper, not as professional advice.

Independent service

Poople.run is an independent fan-built helper and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the operator of poople.io. Game and service names remain the property of their respective owners.

Changes and contact

Poople may update these terms as the site changes. For questions about these terms, contact contact@poople.run or visit the Contact page.
