AccelaStudy® AI Terms of Service

1. Introduction

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the AccelaStudy® AI application and related services (collectively, the "Service") provided by Renkara Media Group ("Renkara," "we," "us," or "our").

By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Service.

If you are under 18 years of age (or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction), you represent that your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms on your behalf.

2. Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service. Users under 13 may only use the Service if a parent or legal guardian creates the account and provides verifiable parental consent in compliance with the Children's Online Privacy Protection Act (COPPA). See our Privacy Policy, Section 11, for details.

For users in the European Economic Area (EEA) or United Kingdom (UK), the minimum age for consent to data processing may be up to 16, depending on your Member State. Where the user is below the applicable age, consent from the holder of parental responsibility is required.

3. Account Registration and Security

3.1 Account Creation

To access certain features of the Service, you must register for an account. You may register using:

• An email address and password
• Apple Sign-In
• Facebook Sign-In

You agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information during registration and to keep your account information up to date.

3.2 Account Security

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials. You agree to notify us immediately at support@renkara.com if you become aware of any unauthorized use of your account.

We are not liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to maintain the security of your account credentials.

4. Use of the Service

4.1 License

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for your personal, non-commercial educational purposes.

4.2 Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Use the Service for any illegal or unauthorized purpose
• Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Service
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to our systems or other users' accounts
• Interfere with or disrupt the Service or its infrastructure
• Use automated means (bots, scrapers, etc.) to access the Service
• Reproduce, distribute, or create derivative works from the Service's content without our express written permission
• Use the Service to transmit malware, spam, or other harmful content
• Impersonate any person or entity, or misrepresent your affiliation with any person or entity

4.3 User-Generated Content

You retain ownership of any study sets or custom content you create within the Service ("User Content"). By creating User Content, you grant Renkara a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to store, process, and display your User Content solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you.

We do not claim ownership of your User Content, and we will not use it for purposes unrelated to providing the Service without your consent.

4.4 Testimonials and Marketing Consent

If you submit a testimonial through the Service (for example, via your profile page), you may optionally grant Renkara permission to reproduce that testimonial in marketing materials by checking the "Allow Renkara to use this testimonial in marketing" box, or equivalent control, when you submit it ("Marketing Consent").

When you grant Marketing Consent, you grant Renkara a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable licence to reproduce, display, adapt (including for length and clarity), and distribute the testimonial, together with your display name and avatar image as they appear in your profile at the time of display, in any medium and for any promotional or marketing purpose connected to the Service. You represent and warrant that the testimonial is your own original work and that you have the right to grant this licence.

Revocation: You may revoke Marketing Consent at any time by editing the testimonial to remove consent, by deleting the testimonial entirely, or by emailing legal@renkara.com. Revocation takes effect prospectively: we will remove the testimonial from materials we control promptly (typically within fourteen days), but revocation does not require us to recall copies of materials already distributed (for example, print collateral already in circulation, or social posts already reshared by third parties).

If you do not grant Marketing Consent, your testimonial is used solely within the Service and for internal product purposes; we will not publish, quote, or otherwise use it externally.

5. Subscriptions and Purchases

5.1 In-App Purchases

Certain features of the Service may require a paid subscription or one-time purchase, processed through the Apple App Store. All purchases are subject to Apple's terms and conditions.

5.2 Pricing and Billing

Subscription prices are displayed in the Service before purchase. Subscriptions automatically renew unless you cancel before the end of the current billing period. You can manage your subscription and cancel auto-renewal through your Apple ID account settings.

5.3 Refunds

Refund requests for App Store purchases must be directed to Apple, as they control the billing relationship. We do not process refunds directly.

6. Intellectual Property

6.1 Our Content

The Service, including its design, text, graphics, interfaces, code, and all content provided by Renkara (excluding User Content), is owned by Renkara and is protected by copyright, trademark, and other intellectual property laws. All rights not expressly granted in these Terms are reserved.

7.5 U.S. Law and Government Access
