Please read these Terms of Service (the "Terms") carefully before using the Service. By registering an account or using the Service, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms; if you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
1. Definitions
- "Service" means the Bedtime Story application and its related website and features. - "We" or "us" means Vilymoo Studio (operated by Tsung Min Huang). - "You" means the parent or legal guardian who registers an account and uses the Service. - "Content" means the story text and illustrations generated for you by the Service. - "Paddle" means the service provider that processes payments for the Service as the Merchant of Record.
2. The Service
The Service is a tool for parents that uses AI to generate personalized bedtime stories and illustrations for children. Accounts and child profiles are created and managed by the parent; children do not register or log in to the Service.
3. Account and Eligibility
- You must have reached the age of majority under the laws of your jurisdiction and be the child's parent or legal guardian in order to register for and use the Service. - You must provide accurate registration information and safeguard your account and login credentials. An account is for a single family's use and may not be transferred, shared, or resold. - You are responsible for all activity carried out through your account. - You are responsible for any unauthorized use of, and any losses arising from, your failure to safeguard your account or login credentials.
4. Trial Credits, Subscription, and Payment
- Trial credits: new accounts receive a fixed number of free trial credits for generating stories. Trial credits are provided free of charge, have no cash value, do not automatically convert to a paid subscription, and do not give rise to any charge unless you actively make a purchase. - Subscription: a subscription takes effect only after you actively purchase it. During the subscription period, you may generate stories in accordance with the fair use principle. - Payment and seller: payment for the Service is processed by Paddle as the Merchant of Record. When you purchase a subscription, you purchase from Paddle, and we provide the Service in accordance with these Terms. Payment is additionally subject to Paddle's buyer terms. - Purchase channel and governing rules: payment, billing, cancellation, and refunds for the Service are handled in accordance with the sales or payment channel through which you complete your purchase and that channel's terms. The Service is currently provided through Paddle (as Merchant of Record). For subscriptions completed through a third-party app store (such as the Apple App Store or Google Play) or any other purchase channel, that channel's billing, cancellation, and refund rules prevail, and any conflicting provisions of these Terms and the Refund Policy do not apply to such transactions. - Auto-renewal: subscriptions are on a monthly term and will automatically renew at the end of each period for the same period and at the then-applicable rate, until you cancel; each period's fee is charged on the renewal date. We disclose these auto-renewal conditions clearly before purchase. - Cancellation: you may cancel your subscription at any time in settings or through Paddle, and cancellation is as easy as subscribing. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current period; you may continue to use the Service until the end of that period, and fees already charged for the current period are not refunded. - Rate changes: if the subscription rate changes, we will notify you by email at least 30 days before the change takes effect; you may cancel before it takes effect. - Refunds: refunds are handled in accordance with the Service's Refund Policy and Paddle's policies. - Immediate provision of digital content and right of withdrawal: the Service's stories and illustrations are digital content that is generated and provided immediately when you subscribe and begin using it. At the time of purchase you consent to immediate provision and acknowledge that, once provision has begun, withdrawal on the ground that the service is "unused" no longer applies; this does not affect the Service's Refund Policy, nor the rights you have under mandatory consumer protection laws that cannot be excluded.
5. AI-Generated Content
- The Service's stories and illustrations are generated by AI models, and each result is different. We apply a post-generation safety check mechanism (for example, stories must end in a calming manner); however, AI-generated content cannot by its nature be guaranteed to be entirely accurate, complete, or appropriate. - The stories and illustrations generated by the Service are for the entertainment purpose of family bedtime co-reading only; they do not constitute educational, psychological, medical, or other professional advice, and are not guaranteed to be suitable for a particular child's age, development, or individual circumstances. The parent should review the content before reading it aloud, judge whether it is suitable for that child, and supervise its use; the final judgment as to whether content is appropriate rests with the parent. - We do not guarantee that use of the Service will achieve any particular outcome, such as improving a child's sleep, behavior, or learning. - You are responsible for the selections you make and the content you enter in the Service (for example, in free-text fields such as names), and must ensure that you do not enter, in any free-text field, information you are not authorized to provide or that the Service expressly asks you not to provide (such as the child's real full name or other identifying or sensitive personal information). If you enter such information contrary to the foregoing instructions, you do so at your own risk, and to the extent permitted by law we are not responsible for the resulting consequences. - For the content and selections you provide in the Service, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use them as needed to provide and operate the Service; and you warrant that you are authorized to provide them and that they do not infringe the rights of any third party. - You may not use the generated Content for unlawful, misleading, or rights-infringing purposes.
6. Intellectual Property and License
- All intellectual property rights in the Service and its software, trademarks, interface, and related materials belong to us or our licensors. - The intellectual property rights in the Content generated for you belong to us; after you complete the corresponding payment, we grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-resale license to use the Content for your and your family's personal, non-commercial use, including viewing, downloading, keeping, and printing it for family use. - You may not use the generated Content for commercial purposes, nor resell, publicly distribute, sublicense, or distribute it to unspecified third parties outside your family. - Except as expressly granted in these Terms, you acquire no other rights by using the Service.
7. Acceptable Use
You may not: consume generation quota in bulk by abusive or automated means; attempt to circumvent, disable, or interfere with the Service's security or protective mechanisms; use prompt injection or other input-manipulation techniques to induce the AI models to ignore, circumvent, or violate their safety limits, content safeguards, or these Terms; register or use multiple accounts to obtain additional free trial credits, or to circumvent any usage limits; make payment by fraudulent means or initiate abusive chargebacks; reverse-engineer, decompile, or gain unauthorized access to the Service; or use the Service for any purpose outside these Terms.
To protect the Service and other users and to prevent abuse, fraud, and abnormal cost consumption, we may set, adjust, and enforce reasonable usage limits (for example, caps on the number of generations), and may limit, suspend, or refuse the Service where we reasonably suspect any of the foregoing; these measures do not require that you have already breached these Terms.
8. Third-Party Services
The Service uses third-party services (for example, hosting, AI providers, and payment processing). Each such third party has its own terms and policies, which also apply when you use the Service.
9. Disclaimer
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available". To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we make no express or implied warranty as to the Service being uninterrupted or error-free, or as to the accuracy, completeness, or appropriateness of the generated Content.
We do not guarantee the availability (uptime) or uninterrupted operation of the Service. If a service interruption or temporary unavailability occurs, we may (but are not obligated to) provide compensation such as a partial refund; any such compensation is made as a goodwill gesture and does not constitute an admission of any warranty obligation or liability.
10. Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from the use of or inability to use the Service (including, without limitation, loss of data, loss of profits, loss of goodwill, business interruption, and claims brought against you by third parties); our aggregate liability is limited to the amount you actually paid for the Service in the 12 months before the claim arose. These Terms do not exclude liability that may not be excluded or limited by law.
11. Indemnification
For the following intentional, unlawful, or grossly negligent acts on your part that give rise to a third-party claim, demand, action, or proceeding against us, or cause us to incur direct loss, you shall reimburse us for the reasonable and direct costs we actually incur as a result (including reasonable attorneys' fees):
- content you enter, submit, or generate in the Service that infringes the intellectual property, copyright, privacy, reputation, likeness, or other rights of others; - your entry or distribution of violent, hateful, harassing, defamatory, obscene, unlawful, or otherwise inappropriate content; - your provision of personal data of third parties (including children) that you are not authorized to provide; - your misuse of the Service, including by abuse, automation, circumvention of security mechanisms, or prompt injection; - your violation of any applicable law or infringement of the rights of any third party.
This section applies only to the foregoing acts attributable to you, does not extend to matters not arising from your intent or fault, and does not affect rights you have under mandatory law that cannot be excluded. This section survives your cessation of use or termination of your account.
12. Termination and Suspension
- If you breach these Terms, we may suspend or terminate your account. You may also stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. - Long-inactive accounts: for accounts that have been inactive for an extended period, we may, at our discretion and for operational and data-minimization reasons, suspend or terminate the account and delete its associated data; where reasonably practicable, we will give you advance notice at your registered email address. - We may also, to protect the Service, to comply with the law, or for other legitimate operational reasons, suspend, terminate, or refuse your use of the Service at our discretion. If such termination is not attributable to your breach, abuse, or fraud, we will refund the unused prepaid portion of your subscription on a pro-rata basis through Paddle; if it results from your breach, abuse, or fraud, fees already paid are not refunded. - If we decide on our own initiative to discontinue the Service, such that a subscription period you have prepaid but not yet used becomes unusable, we will refund the fees paid for that unused period on a pro-rata basis through Paddle. - After termination, provisions that by their nature should survive (including intellectual property, disclaimer, and limitation of liability) continue in effect.
13. Changes to the Terms
We may revise these Terms from time to time. Material changes will be updated on this page with the update date marked, and additional notice will be given where necessary. Continued use of the Service after the changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
14. General Provisions
- Severability: if any provision of these Terms is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions are not affected and continue in effect to the extent permitted by law. If any disclaimer or limitation-of-liability provision of these Terms is held to be unenforceable as overly broad, that provision shall be reduced and continue in effect to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, rather than being void in its entirety. - Entire agreement: these Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and the Refund Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service, and supersede all prior oral or written agreements and representations. - Assignment: we may assign the rights and obligations under these Terms to a third party in connection with a merger, acquisition, or asset transfer; you may not assign these Terms without our consent. - Waiver: our failure or delay in exercising any right under these Terms does not constitute a waiver of that right. - Force majeure: we are not liable for any delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond our reasonable control, such as natural disasters, war, strikes, or interruptions of networks or third-party services. - Governing language: these Terms are provided in Traditional Chinese (zh-TW); other language versions are for reference only, and in case of any discrepancy, the Traditional Chinese version prevails.
15. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms are interpreted and applied under the laws of the Republic of China (Taiwan). For disputes arising from these Terms, the parties shall first negotiate in good faith; if negotiation fails, the Taiwan Taipei District Court shall be the court of first instance. The foregoing does not deprive you of the rights and remedies you have under the mandatory consumer protection laws of your place of residence that cannot be excluded (including the right to bring an action in a court of competent jurisdiction in your locality).
