Terms of Service
Effective October 19, 2026
These terms apply to your use of Redline Reader (“Redline”, “we”), including the web app at app.redlineread.com. By using Redline you agree to them. If you don’t agree, please don’t use the service.
The service
Redline lets you add documents and read them one word at a time, and optionally sync your library and reading stats across your devices with a free account. We may change, pause or discontinue features at any time.
Your uploads are your responsibility
You are solely responsible for every document, file and other content you upload or import into Redline. By uploading it, you confirm that you own it or have the legal right to use it this way, and that doing so does not infringe anyone’s copyright or other rights and does not violate piracy or other laws. Redline does not review uploads and is not responsible for content users add.
The “Find a free book” feature only retrieves books from free, public-domain sources (such as Project Gutenberg and Standard Ebooks).
Acceptable use
Don’t use Redline to:
- upload or share content that is pirated, infringes intellectual-property rights, or is otherwise illegal;
- break the law or harm anyone;
- interfere with the service — for example by attacking it, overloading it, scraping it, or getting around usage limits;
- access other people’s accounts or data.
We may suspend or delete accounts that break these terms.
Your account
Keep access to your email and sign-in methods secure; you’re responsible for activity on your account. You can delete your account at any time from the account page (Delete account). See the Privacy Policy for what we store and how deletion works.
No warranty
Redline is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied — including fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or uninterrupted availability. Text extraction, transcription, chapter detection and AI-selected excerpts can be imperfect. Keep your own copies of anything important.
Limitation of liability
To the extent the law allows, we aren’t liable for any indirect, incidental or consequential damages, or for any loss of data, arising from your use of Redline.
Changes
We may update these terms. We’ll update this page and its effective date; continuing to use Redline after a change means you accept the new terms.
