FalaFala is a language-learning and language-play application. The App is not directed to children under 13 years of age. If you are between 13 and 18, you may use the App only with the permission and supervision of a parent or legal guardian.
By using the App, you represent and warrant that:
- you meet the applicable age requirement;

- you are not prohibited from using the App under applicable law.
Limited License
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, the Company grants you a limited, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable license to download and use the App solely for personal, non-commercial purposes.
All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
You may not:

- modify or create derivative works;

- interfere with the App's operation, servers, or networks; or

App Features
FalaFala is designed to help users speak, play, and bring language to life through interactive language activities.
Depending on the version of the App, FalaFala may allow users to:
- explore language-learning activities, prompts, games, or exercises;
- practice vocabulary, pronunciation, listening, or conversation skills;
- submit responses or other material for use within an activity; and
- use optional device features, such as audio or speech features, where enabled.
We reserve the right at any time to modify or update App functionality, add or remove features, change requirements, correct errors, or discontinue features. We do not guarantee uninterrupted availability of the App or any particular activity, language, lesson, or feature.
User Accounts and User Submissions
Some features may require an account. If you create an account, you agree that:
- information you provide is accurate and current;
- you will not impersonate another person;
- you will not create accounts for unlawful purposes; and
- you are responsible for activity occurring under your account.
If the App allows you to submit text, audio, recordings, answers, or other material (collectively, "User Submissions"), you are responsible for that material and represent that you have the rights necessary to submit it.
You grant the Company a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, process, reproduce, and display User Submissions as reasonably necessary to operate, maintain, improve, and provide the App. This license ends when the User Submission is deleted, except where retention is reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, dispute resolution, or backup purposes.
Acceptable Use
You agree not to use the App to:
- violate any law or regulation;
- harass, threaten, abuse, or impersonate another person;
- submit unlawful, defamatory, hateful, or infringing material;
- submit malicious software, code, or links;
- attempt to access another user's account or data without authorization;
- interfere with App functionality or security;
- use the App to develop or train a competing service without permission; or
- engage in fraudulent, deceptive, or abusive activity.
We may investigate violations and take any action we deem appropriate, including removing User Submissions or suspending or terminating accounts.
Audio and Speech Features
The App may offer features that use your device microphone, audio input, speech recognition, or speech-processing services. If you use such a feature, you are responsible for obtaining any permission required from people whose voice or speech you submit.
Do not submit another person's voice or personal information without appropriate permission. Audio and speech inputs may be processed by the Company and service providers as described in the Privacy Policy.
Audio input is processed to generate a transcription and pronunciation result. Raw audio recordings are not retained after the pronunciation evaluation is complete. We may retain the resulting score, transcription, and limited technical metadata as needed to provide the feature, maintain security, and improve the App.
Subscriptions and In-App Purchases
The App may offer subscriptions, premium features, or in-app purchases. Purchases are processed through the Apple App Store or other authorized payment providers, and additional purchase terms may apply. Apple manages billing, payment processing, and refunds according to its applicable terms and policies. We do not receive or store your full payment card information.

All intellectual property rights in the App, including software, design, branding, graphics, text, logos, activities, audio, features, functionality, and related content, are owned by The Happy Broadcast, Inc. or its licensors.

By using the App, you acknowledge that we may collect and process information necessary to operate the App, provide language activities, support optional audio or speech features, maintain security, analyze performance, and improve the Services. Please review the Privacy Policy for additional details.
Third-Party Services

These providers process information only as reasonably necessary to provide their services to us and as described in the Privacy Policy.
We are not responsible for the availability, content, policies, or practices of third-party services. Your use of third-party services may be subject to separate terms and conditions.
