TaleBlazers Terms and Conditions

1. Basic information and acceptance of terms

TaleBlazers is an online application that helps parents and guardians create personalized, interactive bedtime stories for children using AI generated text, images, and narration. The Service is operated by Vireon Holdings Group LLC, under the laws of the State of Utah, USA.

This Service is designed for and intended to be used by parents and legal guardians (adults) only. Children should not use this Service unsupervised. All accounts must be created, managed, and controlled by an adult parent or legal guardian.

By using the Service, User represents that User has read, understood, and agrees to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If User does not agree, User may not use the Service.

We may offer additional features (such as beta or experimental capabilities) that have additional or different terms. Where there is a conflict, those product specific terms will control for that feature.

2. Eligibility and user accounts

This Service is exclusively for adults. User must be at least the age of majority in User’s jurisdiction (and in any case at least 18 years old) and must be a parent or legal guardian to create an account and use the Service.

Children are not permitted to create accounts or use this Service unsupervised. While children may enjoy stories created with the Service when shared with User, all account creation, management, and use of the Service must be done by an adult parent or legal guardian. User is responsible for ensuring that children do not access or use the Service without User’s direct supervision.

• When User creates an account, User agrees to provide accurate and complete information and to keep it up to date. User also represents and warrants that User is an adult parent or legal guardian.
• User is responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of User’s login credentials and for all activity that occurs under User’s account. User agrees to notify us promptly of any unauthorized use.
• User is responsible for supervising any use of the Service by children and ensuring they do not access the Service unsupervised.
• We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from unauthorized access to User’s account where User failed to keep User’s credentials secure or failed to notify us promptly.

3. License to use the Service

Subject to User’s compliance with these Terms and any applicable subscription or credit requirements, we grant User a limited, revocable, non exclusive, non transferable license to access and use the Service for User’s personal, non commercial use.

User agrees that User will not:

• Resell, sublicense, or otherwise commercially exploit the Service.
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to derive the source code of the Service except where permitted by law.
• Access the Service using any automated means (bots, scrapers, or similar) other than as documented and permitted.
• Use the Service to build a competing product or service, or to copy significant features of the Service.
• Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of the Service or our infrastructure outside of any authorized security program.

4. User content and generated stories

The Service allows User to input and generate content, including character names, preferences, choices, story prompts, and the resulting AI generated stories, images, and audio (collectively, "User Content").

• Ownership: User retains ownership of User’s inputs and of the stories generated for User’s account, subject to the licenses below and any rights of our third party providers.
• License to operate the Service: User grants us a worldwide, royalty free license to host, store, process, display, and otherwise use User Content as needed to provide and maintain the Service, to support User, and to improve the Service’s functionality and performance.
• Personal, non commercial story license: For stories, images, and audio generated by the Service, we grant User a personal, non exclusive, non transferable, non commercial license to use, download, and share them for User’s family’s own personal use (for example, bedtime stories, printing for personal keepsakes).
• Commercial use of stories: If User wishes to use generated stories, images, or audio for commercial purposes (for example, publishing, monetized content, or products User sells), User must obtain a separate commercial license from us. Please contact commerciallicenses@taleblazers.io to discuss commercial use.
• Visibility and sharing: Stories and related content User creates are private to User’s account by default and are not made public by us. If we ever provide options to share content publicly or with others, those options will be clearly indicated in the product.
• Prohibited content: User agrees not to input or upload content that is illegal, infringing, harassing, hateful, sexually explicit, exploitative of children, contains malware, or otherwise violates these Terms or applicable law.
• Takedown and enforcement: We may remove User Content or suspend or terminate accounts that we reasonably believe violate these Terms, our policies, or the law.

5. Our intellectual property

The Service, including all software, design, user interfaces, text, graphics, logos, trademarks, and content we create are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws.

Except for the limited rights expressly granted in these Terms, no rights are transferred to User. User may not use our name, logos, or branding without our prior written permission.

6. Acceptable use

User agrees not to misuse the Service. In particular, User will not:

• Use the Service for any illegal or unauthorized purpose.
• Interfere with or disrupt the Service or servers or networks connected to the Service.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service or other user accounts.
• Send spam, phishing messages, or other unsolicited communications using or relating to the Service.
• Circumvent, disable, or otherwise attempt to bypass any rate limits, credit limits, or technical restrictions we impose.

7. Pricing, billing, and subscriptions

• Parts of the Service may be offered on a paid basis, including credit bundles and subscription plans. Pricing, credit amounts, and plan details are described in the app and may change over time.
• Subscriptions are typically billed in advance on a recurring basis (for example, monthly) and will renew automatically unless canceled as described in the app or by User’s payment provider.
• Unless otherwise stated, prices may not include taxes, and User is responsible for any applicable taxes.
• Refunds are handled in line with our policies and applicable law. In general, we do not provide refunds for partially used subscription periods or unused credits unless required by law.
• We may suspend or cancel User’s access to paid features if a payment fails, is reversed, or is disputed.

8. Third party services and links

We use third party providers to operate the Service, including cloud hosting, databases, payment processors, analytics, and AI services for text, images, and audio. Those providers have their own terms and privacy policies, which govern their handling of data.

The Service may contain links to third party websites or services. We are not responsible for those third parties, their content, or their policies. User’s use of third party sites is at User’s own risk.

9. Data, privacy, and security

Our Privacy Policy describes in detail how we collect, use, and protect personal data, and is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

At a high level, we collect information such as account details, story content, generated media, usage logs, and billing information as needed to operate the Service, personalize stories, and manage subscriptions. We also use product analytics to understand how the Service is used and to improve it.

We take reasonable measures to protect User data, but no online service is perfectly secure. User is responsible for keeping User’s account credentials safe and for using the Service in a way that complies with applicable law.

10. Service availability, changes, and support

• The Service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. We do not guarantee that the Service will be available at all times or without interruption.
• We may suspend or limit the Service to perform maintenance, address security or operational issues, or comply with legal requirements.
• We may add, change, or remove features over time. We may label certain features as beta or experimental; these may be subject to additional limitations or may be discontinued at any time.
• Support, if offered, is described in the app and may have limits on channels, hours, and response times.

11. AI and automation; accuracy and use restrictions

TaleBlazers uses AI and automated systems to generate stories, images, and audio. AI generated content can be wrong, incomplete, or inappropriate if misused.

• User understands that outputs may contain mistakes or omissions and should be reviewed by User before sharing them with children.
• User agrees not to use the Service for high risk or regulated purposes such as medical diagnosis, legal advice, financial advice, or safety critical decision making.
• User remains responsible for how User uses the outputs and for ensuring that User’s use complies with applicable laws and with these Terms.

12. Warranties disclaimer

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, or free from errors, or that it will meet User’s specific requirements. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above may not apply to User.

13. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL WE OR OUR AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS OR REVENUES, WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH USER’S USE OF THE SERVICE.

OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL BE LIMITED TO THE AMOUNT PAID BY USER FOR THE SERVICE IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM (OR, IF USER HAS NOT PAID, TO ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS).

Some jurisdictions do not allow limitations of liability for certain types of damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to User.

14. Indemnification

User agrees to indemnify and hold harmless Vireon Holdings Group LLC and its affiliates, officers, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in connection with:

• User’s use of the Service.
• User’s violation of these Terms or any applicable law.
• Any User Content User submits, including any claim that such content infringes or violates the rights of a third party.

15. Term and termination

These Terms apply from the time User first accesses or uses the Service and continue until terminated as described here.

• User may stop using the Service at any time and may request account closure as described in the app.
• We may suspend or terminate User’s access to the Service (in whole or in part) if we reasonably believe User has violated these Terms, pose a risk to other users or to the Service, or if we are required to do so by law or by a third party provider.
• Upon termination, User’s right to use the Service will cease. We may retain certain data as described in our Privacy Policy and as required by law, and may provide a limited period for User to export User’s stories where reasonably feasible.

16. Governing law, venue, and dispute resolution

These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or to the Service will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Utah, USA, without regard to its conflict of law principles.

User agrees that any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service will be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in Utah, and User consents to the personal jurisdiction and venue of those courts. If User is a consumer in a jurisdiction that requires different protections, mandatory consumer protection laws may give User additional rights.

17. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes, we will update the effective date at the top of this page and may also provide additional notice, such as email or in app messaging.

User’s continued use of the Service after the updated Terms become effective constitutes User’s acceptance of the changes. If User does not agree, User must stop using the Service.
