Terms

Your copy, your responsibility

You play from your own copy of a game, and you are responsible for having the right to the files you open. The site cannot check this: your files are read in your browser and never sent to us.

Use only game files and documents you are entitled to copy into your browser and play. Buying a copy does not give you permission to share it. We supply no game files or manuals and grant no rights in them, and they must not be posted or linked in our feedback repository.

Fair use of the site

Do not:

• attack or overload the site;
• use it to distribute game files to other people;
• present a copy of this site as the official one, or suggest that the project is affiliated with or endorsed by any rights holder of the games;
• remove the attributions and licence notices when reusing any part of it.

None of this restricts what an open-source licence already lets you do with the software it covers, or what the law lets you do anyway.

Licences

The emulator is free software under the GNU Affero General Public License, version 3 only, and its source is public at github.com/amberfolio/amberfolio (opens in a new tab). Every page that runs it links to the exact source it was built from.

The website around the emulator is separate, proprietary work. The emulator’s copyright holder has granted this site a written exception to the licence’s network-service condition so the two can sit together. That exception does not waive the link to the source, and it grants nothing over other people’s contributions to the emulator. The licences page has the details.

Copyright complaints

The site hosts no game files and never receives yours. If you believe something this site publishes infringes your copyright, write to licensing@amberfolio.org with the work concerned, the address of the page, your contact details and why you believe it infringes, and we will look at it promptly. Please do not send game files. For something posted in our feedback repository on GitHub, you can also use GitHub’s own takedown process (opens in a new tab).

No warranty

The site and the emulator are provided as they are, without warranty of any kind. Nobody promises that it will run your copy of a game, that it will run it correctly, or that the site will be available when you want it.

Limits of responsibility

To the extent the law allows, the operator is not liable for loss or damage arising from your use of the site. In particular, saved games kept in your browser can be cleared by the browser without warning, so keep your own copies of anything you would be sorry to lose. Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

Governing law

Amber Folio is operated from the United States. Nothing on this page removes a right you hold under the consumer law of the country you live in.

Changes

These terms will change when accounts, cloud saves or advertising arrive; each will be described here before it ships. A revised version is published here with the date it takes effect, a change that matters is announced on the site before then, and no change reaches back to alter anything that happened before it. Last updated 26 September 2026. Questions go to licensing@amberfolio.org.
