Terms of Service
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Quillow mobile application ("the App") operated by Highstorm Labs LLC ("we," "us," or "our"), a limited liability company organized under the laws of the State of Oregon.
By creating an account or using the App, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the App.
1. About the App
Quillow is a mobile application that allows parents and guardians to generate personalized AI-powered bedtime stories for their children. The App is intended for use by adults (parents and guardians) and is not designed for or directed at children.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) to create an account and use the App. By using the App, you represent that you meet this age requirement and that you are a parent or legal guardian of any children whose information you enter into the App.
3. Account
3.1 Account Creation
You create an account by signing in with Apple. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your Apple ID and, by extension, your Quillow account.
3.2 Account Accuracy
You agree that the information you provide about yourself and your family is accurate to the best of your knowledge. You may update or correct this information at any time within the App.
3.3 Account Termination
You may delete your account at any time from within the App (Profile > Delete Account). Account deletion permanently removes all of your data from our servers and cannot be undone.
We may suspend or terminate your account if you violate these Terms, with or without notice, depending on the severity of the violation.
4. Subscriptions and Payments
4.1 Free Trial and Subscription Plans
Generating new stories with Quillow requires an active subscription. New users may start a 7-day free trial through the App Store; the trial converts to a paid subscription at the end of the trial period unless canceled at least 24 hours before it ends.
Subscriptions are offered at $3.99 per month or $39.99 per year (USD; local pricing may vary by App Store region). Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase or at the end of the free trial. Subscriptions auto-renew unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the current period (see Section 4.2). Previously generated stories remain readable in the app without an active subscription.
4.2 Auto-Renewal
Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period (monthly or annually) unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple ID account will be charged for renewal within 24 hours prior to the end of the current period.
4.3 Managing Your Subscription
You can manage or cancel your subscription at any time through your Apple ID account settings (Settings > Apple ID > Subscriptions). We cannot process cancellations on your behalf; all subscription management is handled by Apple.
4.4 Refunds
All purchases are made through the Apple App Store and are subject to Apple's refund policies. To request a refund, contact Apple Support or visit reportaproblem.apple.com.
4.5 Price Changes
We may change subscription prices from time to time. Apple will notify you of any price changes in accordance with App Store policies. Price increases will not apply to your current billing period.
4.6 Free Features
Certain features of the App (such as reading previously generated stories) may remain available without an active subscription. We reserve the right to change which features require a subscription.
5. AI-Generated Content
5.1 Nature of AI Content
Stories, story titles, synopses, storybook suggestions, and cover art generated by the App are produced by artificial intelligence (currently OpenAI's language and image models). This content is generated algorithmically based on the information you provide.
5.2 No Guarantee of Quality, Accuracy, or Appropriateness
AI-generated content may contain errors, inconsistencies, or material that you find inappropriate for your children. We do not guarantee that any AI-generated story will be accurate, factually correct, age-appropriate, or suitable for any particular child.
You are responsible for reviewing stories before reading them to your children. We strongly encourage you to read each story yourself before sharing it.
5.3 Content Variability
Each story is generated fresh and will vary based on inputs, AI model behavior, and randomness inherent in AI systems. We cannot guarantee consistency of quality, tone, or content across stories, even within the same storybook.
5.4 No Medical, Psychological, or Educational Advice
Stories that touch on growth areas (such as sharing, patience, or confidence) are intended to be supportive and encouraging. They are not therapeutic, educational, or psychological interventions. The App does not provide medical, psychological, or educational advice. Consult qualified professionals for your child's developmental needs.
5.5 Ownership of Generated Content
Stories and cover art generated through the App are generated for your personal, non-commercial use. You may read, save, and share stories with your family. You may not commercially distribute, sell, or publish AI-generated stories or art from the App without our written permission.
6. Your Content and Data
6.1 Information You Provide
You retain ownership of the factual information you enter into the App (names, ages, interests, etc.). By using the App, you grant us a limited license to use this information solely for the purpose of generating stories, synchronizing data across your devices, and operating the App.
6.2 Data Handling
Your data is handled as described in our Privacy Policy. By using the App, you agree to the collection, use, and processing described therein.
6.3 Data Loss
While we take reasonable measures to protect your data, we do not guarantee that data will never be lost. Stories, storybooks, and other content may be lost due to technical failures, service disruptions, or account deletion. We are not liable for any data loss.
7. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Use the App for any unlawful purpose
- Enter false information about children who are not your own (or for whom you do not have legal guardianship)
- Attempt to manipulate the AI through prompt injection, custom requests, or other inputs to generate harmful, abusive, sexually explicit, or illegal content
- Attempt to access other users' data or interfere with the App's servers or infrastructure
- Reverse-engineer, decompile, or disassemble the App
- Use the App to generate content for commercial distribution
- Share your account credentials with others
- Use automated systems or bots to interact with the App
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms.

These Terms do not grant you any rights to our intellectual property except the limited right to use the App in accordance with these Terms.
8.2 Feedback
If you provide us with suggestions, feedback, or ideas about the App, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual license to use that feedback for any purpose without obligation to you.
9. Third-Party Services
The App relies on third-party services including Apple (authentication and payments), Supabase (server infrastructure), OpenAI (AI generation), and RevenueCat (subscription management). These services have their own terms and privacy policies. We are not responsible for the availability, performance, or policies of third-party services.
If a third-party service experiences an outage or discontinuation, some or all features of the App may be temporarily or permanently unavailable. We will make reasonable efforts to restore service but do not guarantee uninterrupted availability.
10. Service Availability
10.1 No Uptime Guarantee
We strive to keep the App available, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted service. The App may be temporarily unavailable due to maintenance, updates, server issues, or circumstances beyond our control.
10.2 Offline Functionality
The App stores data locally on your device. You can read previously generated stories offline. Story generation and data synchronization require an internet connection.

We may modify, update, or discontinue features of the App at any time. We will make reasonable efforts to notify you of material changes that affect your use.
