2. Who may use RomaTalk

• RomaTalk is for children, teens and adults, used with the support of a responsible adult: a parent, guardian, teacher or specialist.
• Only an adult with full legal capacity may set up the app, accept these terms or make purchases. By doing so, you confirm that you are such an adult and may act for the person you set it up for.
• The parent area is protected by a PIN. Keep the PIN to yourself, and supervise how the app is used.

3. Important: not a medical device

RomaTalk is a communication and learning tool. Parents can also keep private notes and see simple counts of what they recorded, and read general information written for parents. It is not a medical device, and it does not diagnose, assess or treat anything.

RomaTalk does not give medical, psychological, speech-language or educational advice, and it does not replace a qualified professional. Decide on communication and learning approaches together with qualified specialists. You use RomaTalk as a support tool, at your own discretion.

4. Your licence

As long as you follow these terms, we give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable and revocable licence to install and use RomaTalk on devices you own or control, for non-commercial use.

You get a licence to use the app. You don't own it. We and our licensors keep all rights not expressly given to you.

5. No account, works offline

You don't need an account. The app works offline, and your data stays on your device, as described in our Privacy Policy, which is part of these terms.

6. Your content

• "Your content" is everything you add: profiles, card words, photos, videos, recordings, schedules, stories, diary entries and other material.
• Your content is yours. We don't claim it, can't see it, and get no licence to it.
• You confirm that you have the right to use every photo, video, recording and image you add, and that doing so doesn't break the law or anyone's rights.
• Your content lives on your device, so keeping it safe is up to you. Make backups. Deleting the app deletes your content.

7. Intellectual property

• Ours: the RomaTalk name, logo, design, code, built-in cards, illustrations and other materials, apart from your content and third-party parts. They belong to us or our licensors.
• Third-party parts:
  • Twemoji icons, used under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 (CC BY 4.0) licence, credited in Parents › About.
  • Open-source libraries, used under their own licences.
• You may not use our name, logo or materials without our written permission, except where the law allows it.

8. Free use, RomaTalk Pro and donations

Free. RomaTalk is free to use, including:

• all ready-made cards;
• the phrase bar;
• all built-in exercises;
• the diary;
• 15 cards of your own, 5 categories and 1 profile;
• 2 each of your own schedules, choice sets, practices, lesson plans and stories.

What is free today stays free.

RomaTalk Pro. A one-time purchase, not a subscription. It removes the limits above.

• On iPhone and iPad, eligible family members can use Pro through Family Sharing.
• On Android, Pro works on devices signed in to the same Google account.

Pro for specialists. Pro is free for teachers and specialists. Contact us to request access.

Donations ("Support the project"). Voluntary payments that support development. They do not unlock features.

Payments.

• Google Play or the App Store handle every payment, and we never receive your payment details.
• Prices are shown in the store and may include taxes.
• We may change prices or which features are part of Pro. This never takes away a purchase you already made.

Restoring Pro. Your purchase belongs to your store account. Restore it in Parents › About › RomaTalk Pro › Restore purchases.

Purchase check. The store confirms purchases on your device. The app can also check a purchase with our server, but this is currently switched off (see the Privacy Policy). If a purchase cannot be confirmed, for example while the store is unavailable, Pro may stay locked until it is confirmed.

9. Withdrawal and refunds

Any statutory right to withdraw from a digital purchase applies according to the consumer law that applies to you. Check the information shown by the store at checkout.

Refunds follow the policy of the store you bought from: Google Play or Apple. Nothing in this section limits your mandatory consumer rights.

10. Fair use

Please don't:

• break the law or anyone's rights;
• copy, modify, distribute, sell or rent the app, or build products based on it, except where the law allows;
• decompile or reverse-engineer it, except where the law allows;
• get around its technical limits or protections;
• remove copyright or other notices.

11. Availability and updates

• We work to keep RomaTalk running well, but we provide it "as is" and "as available".
• Some features depend on your device and system. In particular, the voices available depend on your operating system, so we can't promise a specific voice or language.
• We may update the app to keep it working, compatible and secure. We will keep the main features you paid for. If we ever remove a paid feature, you keep your legal rights for digital content, including a price reduction or refund where they apply.

12. No warranties

As far as the law allows, RomaTalk comes without express or implied warranties, including fitness for a particular purpose, merchantability and non-infringement. We don't promise the app will be uninterrupted or error-free. This does not affect consumer rights that cannot be excluded by law.

13. Limitation of liability

As far as the law allows:

• we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special or punitive damages, lost profit or lost data that come from using RomaTalk or being unable to use it;
• our total liability is limited to what you paid for the app, if anything.

Nothing here limits liability that the law does not allow us to limit. That includes death or personal injury caused by us, intent or gross negligence, and your mandatory consumer rights.

14. Ending use

• You can stop using RomaTalk and delete it at any time.
• We may end your licence if you seriously break these terms.
• The sections that by their nature continue after the licence ends keep applying: intellectual property, warranties, liability and governing law.

15. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. The current version is always at https://apps.lypii.nl/romatalk/terms with its date. If something important changes, we will tell you in the app. If you keep using RomaTalk after a change takes effect, that means you accept the updated terms.

16. Governing law and disputes

• These terms are governed by Dutch law. You keep the protection of the mandatory consumer rules of the country where you live.
• Disputes go to the competent court in the Netherlands, unless mandatory rules say otherwise.
• EU consumers may also use out-of-court dispute resolution in their own country. For the Netherlands, see the European Consumer Centre (ECC Netherlands).

17. App store terms

These terms apply in addition to the terms of the store you got RomaTalk from.

17.1 Apple App Store

• These terms are between you and us, not Apple. We, not Apple, are responsible for the app and its content.
• We, not Apple, provide maintenance and support. Apple has no obligation to provide any.
• Your licence covers Apple devices you own or control, under the App Store Usage Rules.
• If the app fails to meet an applicable warranty, you can tell Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price. As far as the law allows, Apple has no other warranty obligation, and any other claims are ours to handle.
• We, not Apple, handle claims about the app, including:
  • product liability;
  • failure to meet legal or regulatory requirements;
  • consumer protection;
  • intellectual property infringement.

If you got RomaTalk from Google Play, the Google Play Terms of Service also apply. Google is not a party to these terms and is not responsible for the app. In-app purchases are processed under Google's terms.

18. Other provisions

• Severability: if one part of these terms is invalid, the rest still applies.
• Entire agreement: these terms and the Privacy Policy are the whole agreement between you and us about RomaTalk.
