4. Intellectual Property

All content included on the Service, such as text, graphics, logos, button icons, images, audio clips, digital downloads, data compilations, and software, is the property of UpTalk or its content suppliers and protected by international copyright laws. The compilation of all content on this Service is the exclusive property of UpTalk.

5. User-Generated Content

If you create or submit content (e.g., custom question topics), you retain ownership of your content. However, by submitting content to UpTalk, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to use, reproduce, distribute, prepare derivative works of, display, and perform the content in connection with the Service and UpTalk's (and its successors' and affiliates') business.

6. Purchases and Subscriptions

UpTalk may offer one-time purchases (e.g., question packs, achievement boosters) and/or subscription plans (e.g., premium access to all question categories, ad-free experience). All purchases and subscriptions are subject to the following terms:

6.1 Pricing and Payment

  • Prices are displayed within the App before you complete any purchase.
  • Payments are processed through your device’s app store (e.g., Apple App Store or Google Play). By confirming a purchase, you authorize the App Store (not UpTalk) to charge your chosen payment method.

6.2 One-Time Purchases

  • Once you purchase a question pack or other consumable item, it is tied to your account.
  • All one-time purchases are final and non-refundable, except where required by law.

6.3 Subscription Plans

  • Subscriptions are billed on a recurring basis (e.g., monthly, yearly) at the rate shown in the App at the time of purchase.
  • Your subscription automatically renews at the end of each billing period, unless you turn off auto-renewal at least 24 hours before the current period ends.
  • You can manage or cancel your subscription through your device’s App Store account settings. Cancelling a subscription does not refund the current billing period, but you will retain access to premium features through the end of that period.
  • Free trials (if offered) will convert to a paid subscription at the end of the trial period unless you cancel beforehand. If you cancel during a free trial, you may lose access to all premium features immediately.

6.4 Refunds and Cancellations

  • All purchases and subscription fees are generally non-refundable.
  • For refunds, please follow your App Store’s refund policy. If your App Store denies a refund, UpTalk does not provide additional refunds, except where required by applicable law.
  • Deleting or uninstalling the App will not cancel your subscription; you must cancel through your App Store account.

6.5 Changes to Pricing

  • We may change subscription prices at any time. If we do, we will notify you at least 30 days before the new pricing takes effect.
  • If you do not agree to the new price, you must cancel your subscription before it renews.

7. Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without any warranties of any kind, express or implied. UpTalk does not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free.

8. Limitation of Liability

In no event shall UpTalk, its officers, directors, employees, or agents, be liable to you for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages whatsoever resulting from any errors, mistakes, or inaccuracies of content, personal injury or property damage, of any nature whatsoever, resulting from your access to and use of our services.

9. Termination

We may terminate or suspend your access to our Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, for any reason whatsoever, including without limitation if you breach the Terms.

10. Governing Law

These Terms of Use and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter or formation (including non-contractual disputes or claims) shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Czech Republic.

11. Dispute Resolution

The parties shall attempt to resolve any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms of Use, or the breach, termination, or invalidity thereof, primarily through amicable negotiation.

In the event that a dispute cannot be resolved amicably through negotiation, you agree that the dispute shall be referred to out-of-court dispute resolution. The aim of out-of-court dispute resolution is to reach an amicable settlement of the dispute and an agreement between the parties. This procedure is generally not charged and aims for a quick and efficient resolution.

You expressly agree that exclusive jurisdiction for any dispute with the Service or relating to your use of it, which cannot be resolved through the out-of-court dispute resolution mechanisms mentioned above, resides in the courts of the Czech Republic. You further agree and expressly consent to the exercise of personal jurisdiction in the courts of the Czech Republic in connection with any such dispute, including any claim involving the Service.

You further agree that you and the Service will not commence against the other a class action, class arbitration, or other representative action or proceeding.
