Terms of Service — Fluency Kids

Fluency Kids is designed for children approximately ages 4–12. It provides language-learning content including books, audio, and interactive activities. The App is intended to be used under the guidance and supervision of a parent or legal guardian.

Fluency Kids is a child-directed app. A parent or legal guardian must download the App, agree to these Terms, and oversee its use. By allowing your child to use the App, you represent that you are the child's parent or legal guardian and that you consent to your child's use of the App under these Terms.

You are responsible for managing any in-app purchases, which are processed through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store under your account.

Fluency Kids does not require or support user account creation. There are no logins, no email collection, and no cloud-based user profiles. All user data — including learning progress, favorites, profiles, and preferences — is stored locally on the device and is never transmitted to our servers.

Because data is stored only on the device, it cannot be recovered if the App is uninstalled or if the device is lost, reset, or replaced.

All books, illustrations, audio, music, and other learning materials in the App are the property of Fluency LLC and are protected by copyright and intellectual property laws. You and your child are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access this content within the App for personal, non-commercial language-learning purposes only.

You may not copy, download, record, reproduce, distribute, republish, or create derivative works from any Fluency-owned content outside the App. You may not scrape, crawl, or use automated tools to extract content from the App. Any unauthorized use of our content is a violation of these Terms and may result in loss of access. Fluency LLC reserves the right to pursue any and all legal remedies available for intellectual property infringement.

Content in the App — including books, songs, and activities — may be added, updated, or removed at any time. We are always working to expand our library, but we cannot guarantee that any specific piece of content will remain available indefinitely.

While we strive for accuracy, content in the App may contain errors, inaccuracies, or imperfections in translations, text, or audio.

The App may include open-source software components, which are subject to their own respective licenses.

The App may offer optional in-app purchases, such as subscriptions or one-time purchases to unlock additional content. These purchases are intended for parents and guardians. All purchases are made through the Apple App Store or Google Play Store and are subject to the respective platform's terms and refund policies. Purchase receipts are validated through RevenueCat, a subscription management service.

Parents and guardians are responsible for managing purchase permissions on their device. We recommend enabling parental controls and purchase authentication on your child's device to prevent unauthorized purchases.

Lifetime access. The App may offer a one-time payment for lifetime access. "Lifetime" means the lifetime of the App — we intend to operate the App for the long term and have no plans to shut it down. In the unlikely event the App is discontinued, your lifetime access ends with the service. If the App is discontinued within a reasonable time of your purchase, you may be eligible for a full or partial refund through the App Store or Google Play under their respective refund policies. However, Fluency LLC does not independently guarantee refunds, particularly for purchases made long before a discontinuation.

The App downloads learning content (such as books, audio files, and translations) from our content servers. This requires an internet connection for initial content loading. The App may also rely on third-party services for certain features, such as translation services, which may change or become unavailable due to factors outside our control.

We do our best to keep all features running smoothly. However, we cannot guarantee that any specific feature will be available indefinitely. Features may be added, modified, or removed over time.

The removal or modification of individual features does not entitle users to a full or partial refund. The App is offered as a whole product, not as a guarantee of any individual feature.

You agree not to:

• Reverse-engineer, decompile, or tamper with the App
• Use the App for any unlawful purpose
• Attempt to extract or scrape content from the App using automated tools

The App is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not guarantee that the App will be uninterrupted, error-free, or free of harmful components. Fluency Kids is a language-learning tool and does not guarantee any specific learning outcomes.

Because all user data is stored locally on the device, data loss can occur due to device issues, App uninstallation, or other circumstances. We are not liable for any lost user data.

To the fullest extent permitted by law, Fluency LLC shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data, profits, or goodwill arising from your or your child's use of the App. Our total liability for any claim related to the App shall not exceed the amount you have paid us in the 12 months prior to the claim, or $50, whichever is greater.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Fluency LLC, its officers, and affiliates from any claims, damages, losses, or expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from your violation of these Terms or your misuse of the App.

If you have a dispute with us, we encourage you to contact us first at storyfluent@gmail.com so we can try to resolve it informally.

If we can't resolve a dispute informally, you and Fluency LLC agree to resolve it through binding individual arbitration, rather than in court. Arbitration will be conducted under the rules of the American Arbitration Association (AAA). You agree to waive your right to participate in a class action lawsuit or class-wide arbitration. Either party may bring a claim in small claims court as an alternative to arbitration, provided the claim falls within that court's jurisdictional limits.

This agreement and any disputes arising from it are governed by the laws of the State of Wyoming, without regard to conflict of law provisions.

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we'll update the "Last updated" date at the top of this page. Your continued use of the App after changes are posted means you accept the updated Terms.

If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary, and the remaining provisions will continue in full effect.

These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy for Fluency Kids, constitute the entire agreement between you and Fluency LLC regarding your use of the App and supersede any prior agreements or understandings.

Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that right or provision.

These Terms are provided in English. If translated versions are made available, the English version controls in the event of any conflict.
