Digital Rights Management (DRM)
Perlego does not make use of Digital Rights Management tools to limit a user's access to the traditional “one user, one book.”
DRM restrictions that do apply are:
Our content is encrypted and can only be viewed from within the Perlego eReader or app
Copying is limited to 10% of a book
Downloading the content is only available on mobile devices through our app
Printing a book through the reader or app is not permitted
Flexible access
Enjoy flexible access with 2 plans and 3 billing cycle options. You can switch your plan or billing cycle at any time. Learn more: Plans, pricing, and billing
Once you’ve subscribed, your billing cycle renews automatically based on the plan you selected until you cancel or pause, which you can do at any time from your Account Settings.
If you cancel your subscription, you’ll still be able to log in to Perlego on the web to:
browse the library
save books for later
create bookshelves
share bookshelves with others
All of this is available with just a Perlego account — no active subscription needed. 📚
However, if you delete your account, you'll lose access immediately and won’t be able to log back in.
