Terms of Use

1. Acceptance of terms

By downloading, installing, accessing or using the Apps, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Apps. If you are using the Apps on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization. You must be at least 13 years old (or the higher minimum age required in your country) to use the Apps.

2. License grant

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Scootapi OÜ grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to download and use the Apps on a device that you own or control, solely for your personal, non-commercial exam-preparation purposes. This license does not grant you any ownership in the Apps. Any rights not expressly granted to you are reserved by Scootapi OÜ and its licensors.

3. Subscriptions and auto-renewal

The Apps may offer auto-renewable subscriptions that unlock premium content and features. The following terms apply:

• Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period (e.g. monthly or yearly) unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• Payment is charged to your Apple ID account (on iOS) or your Google Play account (on Android) at confirmation of purchase and upon each renewal.
• You can manage or cancel your subscription, and turn off auto-renewal, in your App Store or Google Play account settings at any time.
• Any unused portion of a free trial period (if offered) is forfeited when you purchase a subscription.
• Refunds are handled by Apple or Google in accordance with their respective policies; we generally cannot issue refunds directly for purchases made through the app stores.
• Prices and subscription options may change; we will give notice of material changes as required, and changes will not affect a billing period already paid for.

4. Apple-specific terms

The following additional terms apply when you download the Apps from the Apple App Store, and prevail over any conflicting terms with respect to your use of the App on an Apple device:

• These Terms are concluded between you and Scootapi OÜ only, and not with Apple. Scootapi OÜ, not Apple, is solely responsible for the Apps and their content.
• Apple has no obligation to furnish any maintenance and support services with respect to the Apps. Scootapi OÜ is solely responsible for any maintenance and support, and for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed.
• In the event of any failure of the App to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple may refund the purchase price (if any) to you; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple will have no other warranty obligation with respect to the App.
• Scootapi OÜ, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the Apps or your use of them, including product liability claims, claims that the Apps fail to conform to legal or regulatory requirements, and claims arising under consumer protection or similar legislation.
• Scootapi OÜ, not Apple, is responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement and discharge of any third-party intellectual property infringement claim relating to the Apps.
• You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as "terrorist supporting", and that you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties, and you will comply with all applicable export and usage laws.
• You must comply with applicable third-party terms of agreement (for example, your wireless data services agreement) when using the Apps.
• Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and upon your acceptance, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.

5. Google Play terms

If you download the Apps from the Google Play Store, you acknowledge that Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the Apps or their content. Your use of the Apps must also comply with the Google Play Terms of Service. Scootapi OÜ, not Google, is solely responsible for the Apps, including support, maintenance, and any claims relating to them.

6. User content

The Apps let you submit content, including essays, written answers and speaking audio recordings ("User Content"). You retain ownership of your User Content. By submitting User Content, you grant Scootapi OÜ a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, process and analyze it solely to operate, provide, secure and improve the Apps and the services you request (such as grading and feedback), including transmitting it to the third-party AI providers described in our Privacy Policy. You are responsible for your User Content and represent that you have the rights necessary to submit it and that it does not violate any law or third-party rights.

7. Acceptable use / prohibited conduct

When using the Apps, you agree not to:

• break any applicable law or regulation, or infringe the rights of others;
• copy, modify, reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the source code of the Apps, except where permitted by law;
• resell, sublicense, rent, or commercially exploit the Apps or their content;
• upload malware, or attempt to disrupt, overload, or gain unauthorized access to the Apps or our systems;
• use the Apps to submit unlawful, abusive, infringing or harmful content;
• circumvent usage limits, security features, or access controls.

8. Intellectual property

The Apps, including all software, text, graphics, logos, the "LangPrep" name and brand, practice content, and the design and arrangement of all of the above, are owned by Scootapi OÜ or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the limited license granted in these Terms, nothing gives you any right, title or interest in the Apps or our intellectual property.

9. Disclaimers

The Apps are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement, to the maximum extent permitted by law. LangPrep is a study aid: we do not guarantee any particular exam result, score, or outcome, and AI-generated scores and feedback are estimates that may contain errors and are not affiliated with or endorsed by any official examination body. We do not warrant that the Apps will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Scootapi OÜ and its officers, employees and suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, data, goodwill or other intangible losses, arising out of or relating to your use of (or inability to use) the Apps. To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Apps will not exceed the greater of (a) the amount you paid us for the Apps in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the liability, or (b) EUR 50. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law, including any mandatory consumer rights.

11. Termination

You may stop using the Apps and delete your account at any time (see the account deletion section of our Privacy Policy). We may suspend or terminate your access to the Apps if you breach these Terms, if required by law, or if we discontinue the Apps. Upon termination, the license granted to you ends and you must stop using the Apps. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (such as User Content license, intellectual property, disclaimers, limitation of liability and governing law) will survive.

12. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Estonia, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The courts of Estonia will have jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Apps, subject to any mandatory consumer-protection rights you have to bring proceedings in your country of residence. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
