By downloading, installing, or using the Glossary mobile application (the "App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App. These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Glossary ("we", "our", "us").

2. Description of the Service

  • Daily reminders and streak tracking

Premium features additionally include:

  • All interactive games (Sprint, Rush, Perfection, Guess the Word, Meaning Match)
  • Synonyms and antonyms for every word
  • Unlimited Proficiency Tests
  • Ad-free experience
  • Additional voice packs

3. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years of age to use the App. By using the App, you represent that you are at least 13 years old. If you are under 18, you confirm that you have the consent of a parent or legal guardian to use the App and accept these Terms.

4. User Accounts

To access certain features, you may be required to create an account using your email address. You agree to:

  • Provide accurate and complete information when creating your account
  • Maintain the security of your account credentials
  • Notify us immediately at info@mytikas.org if you suspect unauthorised use of your account
  • Accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account

You may delete your account at any time from within the App. Upon deletion, your account data will be removed from our servers within 30 days. Your locally stored learning progress (stored on your device) is not affected by account deletion.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

5. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  • Use the App for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable law
  • Attempt to gain unauthorised access to any part of the App or its infrastructure
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the App, including its machine learning models
  • Reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works based on the App's content without our written consent
  • Use automated tools (bots, scrapers, or similar) to access or extract content from the App
  • Interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the App
  • Impersonate any person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity
  • Attempt to circumvent or manipulate subscription or paywall features

6. Premium Subscription

Glossary offers a premium subscription that unlocks additional features as described in Section 2.

  • Billing: Subscriptions are billed on a recurring basis (monthly or annually) through the Apple App Store or Google Play. Your subscription will automatically renew unless cancelled at least 24 hours before the end of the current billing period.
  • Cancellation: You may cancel your subscription at any time through your device's App Store or Play Store account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period; you retain access to premium features until that date.
  • Refunds: Refund requests are handled by Apple or Google in accordance with their respective refund policies. We do not process refunds directly.
  • Price changes: We reserve the right to change subscription prices. We will provide reasonable advance notice of any price changes through the App or the platform store listing.
  • Free trial: Where a free trial is offered, it will automatically convert to a paid subscription at the end of the trial period unless cancelled beforehand.

7. Advertisements

The free tier of the App may display advertisements, including rewarded ads (e.g., to access the daily Proficiency Test). Ads are served by Google Mobile Ads. Upgrading to a premium subscription removes ads. We do not sell your personal data to advertisers; ad targeting is managed by the ad network in accordance with their own privacy policies.

8. Text-to-Speech and Voice Packs

The App includes offline text-to-speech (TTS) functionality powered by on-device machine learning models. Core voice models are bundled with the App at install time. Additional optional voice packs may be downloaded on demand and stored on your device. Downloaded voice packs are tied to the App and cannot be exported or used outside of it.

9. Intellectual Property

All content in the App — including but not limited to word definitions, curated vocabulary lists, game designs, graphics, logos, software code, and machine learning models — is the property of Glossary or its licensors and is protected by applicable intellectual property laws.

You are granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the App for your personal, non-commercial purposes. This licence does not include any right to reproduce, distribute, modify, or create derivative works from the App's content.

10. Content and Accuracy

While we strive to ensure the accuracy of all vocabulary content (definitions, pronunciations, usage examples), we cannot guarantee that the content is free of errors or perfectly up to date. The App is intended for educational purposes and should not be used as a sole reference for academic, legal, or medical purposes.

11. Data and Privacy

Your use of the App is also governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

The App is designed to be offline-first: most of your learning progress (words seen, streaks, collections) is stored locally on your device and is not transmitted to our servers unless you are signed in and sync is active. Your email address and account information are stored securely with Supabase. Subscription and paywall events are processed by Superwall.

12. Disclaimer of Warranties

THE APP IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WE DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APP WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES.

13. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, GLOSSARY SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE APP, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE APP IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.

14. Third-Party Services

The App integrates third-party services including Supabase (backend and authentication), Superwall (subscription management), Google Mobile Ads (advertising), and the Apple App Store / Google Play (distribution and payments). Your use of these services is subject to their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the practices of these third-party providers.

15. Termination

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access to the App at any time, with or without notice, for conduct that we believe violates these Terms or is harmful to other users, us, or third parties. Upon termination, all rights granted to you under these Terms will immediately cease. Active subscription billing is managed by Apple or Google and must be cancelled through the respective platform.

16. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with applicable law. Any disputes arising under these Terms shall be resolved in the courts of the jurisdiction in which we operate, unless otherwise required by the laws of your country of residence.

17. Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. We will notify you of material changes by updating the date at the top of this page and, where appropriate, providing an in-app notification. Your continued use of the App after any changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms.
