Terms of Use
These Terms of Use are an agreement (an end-user license agreement, or “EULA”) between you and Typeciao. By creating an account or using the Typeciao app or the typeciao.com website (together, the “Service”), you agree to these terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. The Service
Typeciao is a 1:1 messaging app for learning a language through real conversations. Messages you and your chat partner exchange are translated and annotated with learning hints. You must be at least 13 years old (or the higher age of digital consent where you live) to use the Service.
2. Your account
You are responsible for your account and for everything sent from it. Keep your sign-in method (email inbox, Google account) secure. You may delete your account at any time in the app’s settings or by emailing support@typeciao.com.
3. Your content
You own the messages, profile information, and photos you submit. You grant us the limited license needed to operate the Service — to store, transmit, translate, and display your content to you and your chat partner. We don’t use your content for advertising and we don’t sell it.
4. Zero tolerance for objectionable content and abuse
Typeciao has no tolerance for objectionable content or abusive users. Content or behavior that violates this policy is removed, and accounts responsible for it are ejected from the Service.
You agree not to post, send, or share content that:
- is harassing, threatening, abusive, or hateful, or that promotes violence or discrimination against any person or group;
- is sexually explicit or exploits or endangers minors in any way;
- is defamatory, fraudulent, or deliberately misleading;
- promotes illegal activity, self-harm, or terrorism;
- is spam, or contains malware or links designed to harm or deceive;
- infringes someone else’s rights, including privacy and intellectual property rights;
- impersonates another person or misrepresents who you are.
You also agree not to abuse, harass, or stalk other users, and not to use the Service for any unlawful purpose.
5. Moderation: reporting, blocking, and enforcement
- Reporting. You can report objectionable content or an abusive user directly in the app, or by emailing support@typeciao.com.
- Blocking. You can block any user in the app. Blocking immediately hides their content from you and prevents them from contacting you, and notifies us so we can review their behavior.
- Enforcement. We review reports and act on them within 24 hours — objectionable content is removed and users who violate these terms are ejected from the Service. We may remove content and suspend or terminate accounts at our discretion to keep the Service safe.
6. License to use the app
We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Typeciao app for your own non-commercial use, subject to these terms and to the rules of the store you downloaded it from (such as the Apple App Store or Google Play). You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, or resell the Service.
7. Translations and learning hints
Translations, corrections, and hints are generated automatically and are provided for learning purposes. They may contain mistakes — don’t rely on them where an inaccurate translation could cause harm.
8. Termination
You can stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access immediately if you violate these terms — including, without exception, for posting objectionable content or abusing other users.
9. Disclaimers and limitation of liability
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, express or implied. To the maximum extent permitted by law, Typeciao is not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or any loss of data or goodwill, arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim relating to the Service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the past 12 months and US $50. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
10. Privacy
How we collect and use your information is described in our Privacy Policy, which is part of these terms.
11. Changes to these terms
We may update these terms from time to time. When we do, we’ll revise the “Last updated” date above and, for material changes, provide a more prominent notice. Continued use of the Service after an update means you accept the revised terms.
