Terms of Use

Last updated: 15 June 2026 · Version 1.0

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) form an agreement between you and Taras Gordiienko, acting as a sole proprietor (FOP) registered in Ukraine (“we”, “Vabyk”), and govern your use of the Vabyk app, websites, and related services (the “Service”). By using the Service you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. Who can use the Service

An account may be created only by an adult with full legal capacity (18 years or older) who is the child's parent or other legal guardian. By creating a child profile, you confirm that you are entitled to act on the child's behalf and to consent to the processing of their data. You are responsible for the child's supervised use of the Service and for all activity under your account.

2. Purpose of the Service and medical disclaimer

Vabyk is an educational app for game-based speech practice. The Service is NOT a medical device, diagnostic, or treatment, and does NOT replace consultation, assessment, or therapy by a qualified speech therapist, physician, or other professional. The content is general-educational in nature. Make decisions about your child's health and development in consultation with a professional.

3. Your account

Using the Service requires an account created via Google or Apple Sign In. You must provide accurate information, keep your account access confidential, and promptly notify us of any unauthorized use. The Service lets you share a child profile with other adults (for example, a second parent); you are responsible for whom you grant such access to.

4. Subscription, payment, and auto-renewal

Certain features are provided through a paid subscription. Subscriptions are purchased and paid for through the app store (Apple App Store or Google Play), not directly to us. The price, period, and terms are shown in the purchase interface before you confirm.

• Payment is charged to your app-store account upon purchase confirmation.
• The subscription renews automatically for a new period at the same price unless you turn off auto-renewal.
• Renewal is charged within 24 hours before the end of the current period.
• You can turn off auto-renewal or cancel in your App Store or Google Play account settings; do so at least 24 hours before the period ends.
• Cancellation stops future charges, but access to paid features continues until the end of the period already paid for.

5. Refunds

Because payment is handled by the app store, refunds are governed by the rules of the relevant store (Apple or Google) and are requested through it. This does not limit your mandatory consumer rights under the law of your country.

Right of withdrawal (for EU/EEA consumers): you generally have 14 days to withdraw from a digital service. By requesting immediate access to digital content, you may agree that performance begins before that period ends and acknowledge that you thereby lose the right of withdrawal once the service has been fully performed, to the extent permitted by law.

6. License to use

We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Service for personal, non-commercial purposes in accordance with these Terms. All rights not expressly granted are reserved by us.

7. Acceptable use

• Do not use the Service unlawfully or to harm others.
• Do not attempt to gain unauthorized access, disrupt the Service or its security, or circumvent technical limitations.
• Do not copy, modify, distribute, or create derivative works from the Service's content without our permission.
• Do not use the Service for automated data collection (scraping) without permission.
• Do not impersonate others or provide false information.

8. Intellectual property

All games, illustrations, audio, text, software code, trademarks, and other materials in the Service belong to us or our licensors and are protected by intellectual-property law. The “Vabyk” name and logos are our marks and may not be used without written permission.

9. Data and privacy

The processing of personal data is governed by our Privacy Policy, which forms an integral part of these Terms. By using the Service you also acknowledge the Privacy Policy.

10. Third-party services

The Service relies on third-party providers (including app stores and sign-in services). Their terms and policies apply to those services, and we are not responsible for the actions of such third parties.

11. Disclaimer of warranties

To the extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, uninterrupted operation, or freedom from errors. We do not guarantee any specific developmental or learning outcomes for a child.

12. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages, or loss of data or profit, arising from the use of or inability to use the Service. Where limitation is not permitted by law, our aggregate liability is limited to the amount you paid for the Service in the preceding 12 months. Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

13. Suspension and termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time from within the app. We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these Terms or applicable law. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends; provisions that by their nature should survive (intellectual property, disclaimer of warranties, limitation of liability) remain in effect.

14. Changes to the Service and Terms

We may change the Service and these Terms. We will notify you of material changes in the app or by email, stating the effective date. Continued use after that date means you accept the amended Terms. If you do not agree, stop using the Service.

15. Governing law and consumer rights

These Terms are governed by the law of Ukraine, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. If you are a consumer, you also benefit from the mandatory rights provided by the law of your country of habitual residence, and nothing in these Terms limits rights that cannot be limited by law.
