Effective Date: March 24, 2026 | Last Updated: March 24, 2026
Welcome to Harem-Lit (“the Service”), operated by Pivot Press Publishing, LLC (“we,” “us,” or “our”). These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of harem-lit.com and all associated services, features, content, and applications.
BY ACCESSING OR USING THE SERVICE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTOOD, AND AGREE TO BE BOUND BY THESE TERMS. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE, DO NOT USE THE SERVICE.
You must be at least thirteen (13) years of age to create an account. Users under eighteen (18) must have verifiable parental or guardian consent. Certain mature content features, including explicit content filters and spice-level ratings, require age confirmation (18+).
You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to maintain only one account per person. Creating multiple accounts to circumvent restrictions, manipulate rankings, or exploit gamification systems is prohibited and grounds for permanent suspension.
You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use. We are not liable for losses arising from unauthorized access to your account.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that show signs of compromise, unauthorized access, or abuse without prior notice.
You retain ownership of original content you create on the Service, including reviews, tier lists, blog posts, profile information, discussion posts, and reading club contributions. By posting content, you grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable license to display, reproduce, modify, distribute, and create derivative works of your content in connection with operating and promoting the Service.
You represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights to post your content, that it does not infringe any third party's intellectual property or privacy rights, and that it complies with applicable law.
We may remove, edit, or refuse to display any content at our sole discretion, including content that violates these Terms or that we deem harmful, offensive, or inappropriate.
All content, design elements, graphics, artwork, illustrations, card art, character portraits, logos, icons, interface designs, code, and other materials on the Service (“Site Assets”) are the property of Pivot Press Publishing, LLC or our licensors and are protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws.
Use, reproduction, distribution, modification, or display of any Site Assets — including but not limited to Waifu Collector card art, character portraits, game assets, UI elements, and promotional materials — outside of the Service or without express written permission is strictly prohibited and constitutes grounds for immediate account termination and potential legal action.
Book cover images displayed on the Service are used under fair use for the purpose of identification, review, and commentary, and remain the property of their respective publishers and rights holders.
Amazon product data, including prices, ratings, and availability information, is provided via the Amazon Product Advertising API and is subject to Amazon's terms. As an Amazon Associate, we earn from qualifying purchases made through affiliate links on the Service.
You agree not to:
Violation of any prohibited conduct may result in content removal, temporary suspension, permanent account termination, or legal action at our sole discretion.
The Service may offer virtual currency (“Shards”), collectible cards, and other digital items (“Virtual Items”) through features including the Waifu Collector, Allure card game, and related systems. By using these features, you acknowledge and agree:
The Service includes a gamification system with experience points (XP), levels, badges, streaks, and leaderboards. These features are provided for entertainment and engagement purposes. We reserve the right to modify XP values, level thresholds, badge requirements, and leaderboard calculations at any time.
Attempting to artificially inflate XP, manipulate leaderboard standings, or exploit gamification mechanics through automated means, multiple accounts, or coordinated behavior is prohibited.
Authors may apply for “Supporting Author” status, which grants access to additional profile features and tools. Supporting Author status requires human verification and inclusion of a link to harem-lit.com in the author's published works as specified during the application process.
Authors may claim books they have written. Book claims are subject to verification and approval by our team. False claims or impersonation of another author will result in immediate account termination.
We reserve the right to revoke Supporting Author status at any time if an author no longer meets the requirements, violates these Terms, or engages in conduct detrimental to the community.
Reading clubs, discussion threads, author visit threads, and other community features are provided for constructive engagement. Club creators and moderators are responsible for maintaining a respectful environment within their clubs.
We reserve the right to intervene in, modify, or dissolve any reading club or community feature that violates these Terms or poses a risk to user safety.
The Service uses content rating systems including romance levels, intimacy levels, and other descriptive indicators to help users make informed decisions about content. These ratings are community-sourced and may not always be accurate.
Users who contribute ratings agree to rate content honestly and in good faith. Deliberately misrating content to mislead other users is a violation of these Terms.
The Service may contain links to third-party websites, services, or content (including Amazon, Goodreads, Patreon, and social media platforms). We are not responsible for the content, privacy practices, or availability of third-party services. Your use of third-party services is governed by their respective terms and policies.
Your use of the Service is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your personal information. By using the Service, you consent to the data practices described in the Privacy Policy.
We employ a tiered moderation system with escalating consequences for violations. Actions may include content removal, warnings, temporary suspension, feature restrictions, or permanent account termination.
Moderation decisions are made at our sole discretion. While we strive for consistency, we are not obligated to take the same action for similar violations. Users may appeal moderation decisions through the support ticket system.
We may use automated tools to detect and flag potential violations. Automated actions are subject to human review upon request.
We respect the intellectual property rights of others.

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any disputes arising under these Terms shall be resolved exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Texas.
You agree that any cause of action arising from or related to the Service must be commenced within one (1) year after the cause of action accrues. Otherwise, such cause of action is permanently barred.
If any provision of these Terms is found to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that provision shall be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.
