By accessing or using ReadBuddy (the “Service”), including the ReadBuddy mobile application and website at readbuddy.ai, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Use (“Terms”). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service.
These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and ReadBuddy (“we,” “our,” or “us”). By using the Service, you represent that you are at least 18 years of age or have the consent of a parent or legal guardian.
ReadBuddy provides AI-powered reading comprehension tools and educational services designed to help children improve their reading skills through interactive reading questions and book analysis features. The Service uses artificial intelligence to analyze book cover images and generate age-appropriate reading questions.
ReadBuddy may offer paid subscription plans in the future. The following terms apply if and when paid subscriptions are made available for purchase through the Service.
If we offer auto-renewing subscription plans, then when you purchase a subscription it will automatically renew at the end of each billing period (monthly or annually) unless you cancel before the renewal date. The subscription fee will be charged to your Apple ID account (for purchases made through the iOS app) or to your selected payment method (for purchases made through the website).
If offered, subscription plans and pricing will be displayed within the application or website at the time of purchase.
If we offer a free trial, it will automatically convert to a paid subscription at the end of the trial period unless you cancel before the trial expires. You will not be charged during the free trial period.
How to Manage or Cancel (when paid subscriptions are available)
When you have an active paid subscription, cancellation generally takes effect at the end of the current billing period. You will continue to have access to premium features until the end of your paid period.
If you have purchased a subscription through the Apple App Store, you can restore your purchase by signing in with the same Apple ID used for the original purchase.
This section applies if and when paid subscriptions or other paid features are offered.
If offered, subscriptions purchased through the ReadBuddy iOS app are processed by Apple Inc. through Apple In-App Purchase. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase. Your subscription automatically renews unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
If offered, subscriptions purchased through the ReadBuddy website are processed by Stripe, Inc. Payment is charged to the credit card or payment method you provide at the time of purchase.
If we offer paid subscriptions, we may change subscription prices from time to time. Any price change will take effect at the start of the next billing period following notice to you. Your continued use of the Service after a price change constitutes your agreement to the new price.
The following applies to paid purchases made through the applicable platform, if and when such purchases are available.
Refunds for subscriptions purchased through the Apple App Store are subject to Apple's refund policies. To request a refund, visit reportaproblem.apple.com or contact Apple Support directly.
