Using TeaNovel Discovery
These terms cover TeaNovel Discovery’s catalog, account features, book lists, reader contributions and Legacy Archive. By using the service, you agree to these terms. If you cannot agree, stop using it. Your use must comply with applicable law.
Discovery helps you find and compare novels using published information. It does not sell access to source novels or grant permission to reproduce them. TeaNovel Read and original source websites are separate services with their own terms, access requirements and any charges. The Read link opens its homepage without transferring your selected book.
Your account
An account is required to save a private reading shelf, create or save lists, and contribute reviews, replies or reactions. Sign in using your own email or a supported provider. Your first successful sign-in creates an account. Keep your email account and provider access secure, and never share a sign-in code.
Do not impersonate another person or use an account you are not entitled to access. You are responsible for the content and actions you submit. Contact us if you believe your account has been used without permission. Information handling is described in our Privacy policy.
Your lists, reviews and replies
You retain the rights you have in your original contributions. Submit only material you are entitled to share. By submitting it, you allow TeaNovel to store, format, process and moderate it, and display it according to its visibility and review status to operate the service. This permission does not turn a private list into a public one.
Choose public visibility only when you want others to read the list and its associated display name. You can edit or delete your own lists and contributions using the available controls. Other people may keep copies of material they already saw; withdrawing it cannot recall those copies. Restricted submission and audit records can remain as described in the Privacy policy.
Respect other readers and rights holders
- Do not publish private information, impersonate people, threaten or harass others.
- Do not submit spam, fraudulent promotions or material that unlawfully infringes another person’s rights.
- Do not bypass access controls, interfere with the service or manipulate reviews and counts.
- Keep contributions relevant to the book, list or conversation, and make your own opinion clear.
Critical reviews and disagreement are welcome when they follow these rules. Fictional themes and negative opinions are assessed in context rather than rejected simply because someone dislikes the subject. Some source novels contain mature themes; check the available book information and source guidance before choosing what to read.
Publication and moderation
Content submitted for public visibility is checked before publication. Checks may use automated systems, AI services and human review. A submission can remain pending, require revision or be rejected. Its status and any available revision or review options appear in your account’s Submission status window.
A published list’s previous approved version may remain visible while edits are reviewed. Making a list private or deleting it withdraws public access. We may restrict or remove content to enforce these rules, protect privacy, address abuse or respond to a substantiated rights concern. Review results can be corrected; approval is not a certification of factual accuracy or ownership.
Catalog information and intellectual property
Novel text, covers, author identities and source materials remain subject to the rights of their respective owners. A listing, summary or outbound link does not transfer those rights or indicate an endorsement by an author or publisher. The read-only Legacy Archive preserves existing TeaNovel translations at their historical addresses.
English titles, summaries, classification and rating estimates can contain errors or become outdated. Source availability, prices, completion status and chapter updates can change. Check the original source for its current offering. Rankings and reader opinions help with discovery and do not guarantee quality, suitability or availability.
To request a correction or raise a copyright concern, follow our rights-contact guidance. Do not send entire copyrighted books as part of a report.
Availability and responsibility
We may update features, correct or withdraw catalog entries, or interrupt service for maintenance, security and operational reasons. We cannot guarantee uninterrupted access or the availability and accuracy of third-party websites. Keep a separate copy of contributions you need to preserve.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the service is provided as available without a guarantee that it will meet every individual need. Nothing in these terms removes mandatory consumer or privacy rights, or excludes responsibility that the law does not allow us to exclude.
Questions, concerns and changes
Email support@teanovel.com about these terms, a moderation concern or a service problem. Include the relevant page or submission details so we can identify the issue, without sending a sign-in code or unnecessary personal information.
Changes to these terms are published here with an updated date. Review them when the service changes. See About TeaNovel for how discovery, ratings and account features work.
