Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By downloading, installing, or using the Nitelit application ("the App"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the App.

You must be at least 18 years old or the age of majority in your jurisdiction to create an account. The App is intended for use by parents and guardians to create bedtime stories for their children.

2. Description of Service

Nitelit is a mobile application that generates personalized bedtime stories for children using artificial intelligence. Parents and guardians customize stories by selecting themes, moods, age levels, character names, and language. Story text is generated using AI (Anthropic Claude) and story illustrations are generated using AI (OpenAI).

Stories are AI-generated content, not human-authored. While we design our systems to produce age-appropriate, safe content, we do not guarantee the accuracy or suitability of any generated content. Parental discretion is advised.

Generated content is available in 7 languages: English, Dutch, French, German, Italian, Portuguese, and Spanish.

3. User Accounts

To use the App, you must create an account with accurate and complete information. You are limited to one account per person.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use. Authentication is managed through personal access tokens, which may be revoked at any time via logout.

We enforce rate limiting to ensure fair use. Abuse or excessive requests may result in temporary throttling of your access.

4. Subscriptions and Billing

Plans

Nitelit offers three paid subscription plans (prices include all applicable taxes):

• Basic — 5 stories per month for €4.99/month
• Standard — 12 stories per month for €9.99/month
• Premium — 25 stories per month for €19.99/month

We reserve the right to modify pricing. Existing subscribers will be notified at least 30 days before any price change takes effect. If you do not agree with a price change, you may cancel your subscription before the new price applies.

Billing and Renewal

Subscriptions are billed monthly and managed via Stripe. Your subscription automatically renews at the start of each billing cycle. Your story quota resets upon successful invoice payment.

Story Quota

Each plan includes a fixed number of stories per billing period. Unused stories do not roll over to the next billing period.

Cancellation and Refunds

You can cancel your subscription at any time through the Stripe billing portal. Upon cancellation, you retain access to your plan until the end of the current billing period.

5. Right of Withdrawal

Under the EU Consumer Rights Directive (2011/83/EU), you have the right to withdraw from your subscription within 14 days of purchase without giving any reason.

However, by subscribing and using the App to generate stories, you expressly consent to the immediate performance of the service and acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once story generation has been performed during the withdrawal period.

If you have not used any stories during the 14-day withdrawal period, you may request a full refund by contacting us at [email address]. After the withdrawal period, or once stories have been generated, no refunds are provided for partial billing periods.

6. Content and Intellectual Property

Your Content

You retain rights to the input data you provide, including character names and story preferences.

Generated Stories

Stories and illustrations generated through the App are created for your personal, non-commercial use. You may read, save, and share stories with your family. You may not reproduce, distribute, or sell generated stories for commercial purposes.

Story illustrations are generated in parallel during story creation. In rare cases, partial failures may result in stories with missing illustrations.

Our Intellectual Property

The App, including its design, features, and underlying technology, is owned by [Company Name] and protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any rights to our trademarks, logos, or branding.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Use the App for any unlawful purpose
• Use the story generation feature to create offensive or harmful content
• Attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract source code from the App
• Interfere with or disrupt the integrity of the App or its servers
• Circumvent story limits, rate limits, or other restrictions of your subscription plan
• Share your account credentials with others

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or engage in abusive behavior.

8. Account Deletion

You can delete your account at any time from within the App. Account deletion is permanent and irreversible. The following data is permanently deleted:

• Your user account and profile information
• All personal access tokens
• All generated stories, including story text, pages, and illustrations
• Your profile picture
• Your Stripe customer data

Any active subscription is automatically cancelled upon account deletion.

9. Service Availability and Conformity

We strive to keep the App available and functioning as described. Story generation depends on third-party AI services (Anthropic and OpenAI), and temporary unavailability of these services may affect story generation.

Under the EU Digital Content Directive (2019/770), you are entitled to digital content that conforms to what is described in these Terms. If the service does not conform — for example, if story generation consistently fails or your subscription features are unavailable — you are entitled to have the issue remedied. If we cannot remedy the lack of conformity, you may be entitled to a proportionate price reduction or termination of your subscription with a refund for the affected period.

We may modify or improve the App over time. We will notify you in advance of any significant changes that negatively affect your access to features included in your subscription. If such changes significantly and negatively affect your use of the App, you may terminate your subscription and receive a proportionate refund.

10. AI-Generated Content Disclaimer

Stories and illustrations are generated by artificial intelligence. While we design our systems to produce age-appropriate, safe content, AI-generated content may occasionally produce unexpected results. We encourage parents and guardians to read stories with their children or review them beforehand.

We continuously improve our content filters and welcome feedback on any stories that do not meet your expectations.

11. Limitation of Liability

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits our liability for: (a) death or personal injury caused by our negligence; (b) fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation; (c) intentional fault or gross negligence; or (d) any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited under Belgian or EU law.

Subject to the above, [Company Name] shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, including loss of data or profits, arising from your use of the App.

Our total liability for any claim arising from these Terms or the App shall not exceed the amount you paid us in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.

Parents and guardians remain responsible for reviewing AI-generated stories before sharing them with children.

12. Changes to These Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes via email or in-app notification at least 30 days before the changes take effect, and update the "Last updated" date above.

If you do not agree with the updated Terms, you may terminate your subscription before the changes take effect. Continued use of the App after the effective date of changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

13. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with Belgian law. Any disputes arising from these Terms shall be subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts of Belgium.

If you are a consumer residing in the EU, you also benefit from any mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence. Nothing in these Terms affects your rights as a consumer under applicable EU law.

The European Commission provides an Online Dispute Resolution (ODR) platform for consumers: https://ec.europa.eu/consumers/odr. You may use this platform to seek resolution of any dispute arising from your use of the App.
