These Terms of Service ("Terms") set forth the conditions for using the mobile application "Sentto" (the "Service") provided by LI GUANGLAI (a sole proprietor; "we," "us," or "the Company"). By using the Service, you are deemed to have agreed to these Terms.
Article 1 (Application)
These Terms apply to all relationships between the Company and users regarding the use of the Service.
Article 2 (Definitions)
"Free Plan" refers to the scope of features available at no cost within the Service.
"Pro Plan" refers to the paid subscription plan offered by the Company via Apple App Store in-app purchase.
"Generated Content" refers to Japanese sentences, furigana readings, romaji transliteration, and audio data generated by AI based on Chinese text input by the user.
Article 3 (Account Registration)
Users must create an account via the methods designated by the Company (email and password registration, or "Sign in with Apple") to use the Service.
Users shall keep their registration information accurate and up to date.
Users are responsible for managing their own accounts. Except where caused by the Company's willful misconduct or gross negligence, the Company is not liable for unauthorized use by third parties.
Article 4 (Eligibility)
The Service is not intended for individuals under the age of 13. Individuals under 13 may not use the Service.
Minors using the Service (particularly the paid Pro Plan) must obtain the consent of a parent or legal guardian.
Article 5 (Free Plan and Pro Plan)
The Free Plan is subject to a daily limit on the number of AI generations (the limit is set by the Company and may be changed with prior notice).
The Pro Plan is an auto-renewing subscription priced at US$5.99/month (per the price displayed on the App Store), offered through Apple App Store in-app purchase (displayed currency and amount may vary by country/region based on App Store pricing).
The Pro Plan automatically renews unless canceled by the user, with renewal charges applied no later than 24 hours before the end of the current period.
Cancellation must be performed by the user via the Apple ID settings screen ("Subscriptions" management page). The Company's app cannot directly cancel the subscription on Apple's behalf. See Apple's official support page on how to cancel a subscription for details.
Refunds: Since payments are processed through Apple App Store, refund eligibility and procedures are governed by Apple Inc.'s policies. The Company cannot process refunds directly. To request a refund, please use Apple's designated process (reportaproblem.apple.com).
Article 6 (Fees, Payment Method, and Consumption Tax)
Payment for the Service is made exclusively through Apple App Store in-app purchase. The Company does not directly collect users' credit card or other payment information.
The handling of consumption tax and other taxes on displayed prices follows the tax rules set by Apple Inc. for each country/region.
Generated Content provided by the Service (Japanese sentences, furigana, romaji, AI-generated audio, etc.) is automatically produced by an AI model, and the Company does not guarantee its grammatical accuracy, translation appropriateness, pronunciation accuracy, or any other accuracy or completeness.
Generated Content is provided solely for language-learning reference purposes and is not a substitute for official translation, interpretation, or professional judgment in legal, medical, or business contexts. For important situations (contracts, official procedures, medical matters, important business communications, etc.), please have the content verified by a professional or native speaker.
Except where caused by the Company's willful misconduct or gross negligence, the Company is not liable for any damages arising from Generated Content.
Article 8 (Prohibited Conduct)
Users shall not engage in the following when using the Service:
Acts that violate laws or public order and morals;
Acts that infringe the intellectual property, portrait, privacy, or other rights of the Company or third parties;
Using the Service's AI generation feature to produce illegal, harmful, discriminatory, obscene, or defamatory content;
Exploiting bugs or vulnerabilities in the Service, reverse engineering, or unauthorized access;
Circumventing Free Plan usage limits by fraudulently obtaining multiple accounts;
Any act that may interfere with the operation of the Service;
Any other act the Company deems inappropriate.
If the Company determines that a user has violated the above, it may suspend or delete the user's account without prior notice.
Article 9 (Intellectual Property)
Copyright and other rights to Chinese text input by the user into the Service belong to the user.
AI-Generated Content may be freely used by the user for their own language-learning purposes. However, because the possibility of Generated Content coincidentally resembling existing third-party works cannot be entirely excluded, users are responsible for verifying rights before using Generated Content for commercial or public purposes.
Intellectual property rights in the Service application itself (design, logo, mascot character, program, etc.) belong to the Company or the rightful rights holder.
Article 10 (Changes, Suspension, and Termination of the Service)
The Company may change, add to, or discontinue the content of the Service after notifying users in advance.
The Company may suspend all or part of the Service without prior notice due to system maintenance, natural disasters, communication line failures, or other unavoidable circumstances.
If the Company discontinues the Service, it will endeavor to notify users in advance to the extent possible.
Article 11 (Disclaimer and Limitation of Liability)
The Company makes no express or implied warranty that the Service will meet any particular purpose of the user, possess any expected function or value, or that the user's use of the Service will comply with laws applicable to the user.
Except where caused by the Company's willful misconduct or gross negligence, the Company is not liable for any damages arising from the Service. Where the Company is liable for damages, such liability shall be limited to the amount of subscription fees actually paid by the user for the month in which the damage occurred.
The preceding paragraph does not apply in cases of the Company's willful misconduct or gross negligence (this provision reflects the intent of Japan's Consumer Contract Act).
Article 12 (Changes to These Terms)
The Company may amend these Terms after providing prior notice to users, where deemed necessary. Amended Terms take effect once announced in the manner designated by the Company.
Article 13 (Governing Law and Jurisdiction)
These Terms shall be governed by the laws of Japan.
Any dispute arising in connection with the Service between the Company and a user shall be subject to the exclusive agreed jurisdiction of the Tokyo District Court as the court of first instance.
