NUMBIRO TERMS OF SERVICE
INTRODUCTION
In the event there is a discrepancy between this English language version and any translated copies of the
Terms
of Service, the English version shall prevail.
Our full Terms of Service are set out below, but to make it easier for you here is a short overview of the
most important points:
- The basic version of Numbiro can be accessed free of charge, and advertisements will be displayed
periodically.
- You have the option to purchase a Premium membership. With a Premium membership the advertisements will
be removed,
and you have access to additional learning functions such as advanced Japanese counters, preset
management, etc.
This is just an option; you can use
Numbiro as basic user completely for free. If you purchase a Premium membership through a monthly
subscription, it will renew automatically
for the initial time period purchased, but you can cancel it at any time by going to "Premium Status"
and then
"Open Settings" within the App. When you purchase a Premium membership through a monthly subscription or
an in-app purchase, then the
purchase is also subject to the terms of your agreement with the third party app store through which you
purchased (in addition to these
Terms). To cancel your subscription, you must cancel directly with that third party. You will then still
enjoy Premium access until the end of the period you've paid for.
- If you want, you can turn off any notifications, emails and newsletters from
Numbiro at any time.
TERMS OF SERVICE
Welcome to Numbiro (the "App"), a mobile app for learning languages. The App is owned and operated by
Sulisoft, which is the trading name of a sole trader developer in the United Kingdom ("Sulisoft").
I. ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
- Numbiro provides its service (the "Service") to you, subject to the following Terms of Service.
- By accessing or using the App, you ("you") confirm that you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service.
You also confirm that you are either at least 18 years old or, if you are younger than 18, that you have
the
permission of your parent or legal guardian, who will take responsibility for your compliance with these
Terms of Service. The Service is not intended for use by children under the age of 13.
- These Terms of Service may be updated from time to time by Numbiro. You can review the most current
version of
the Terms of Service at any time here: https://numbiro.app/terms-of-service.html. Your continued
use of the
Service or the App after any such changes have been made constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms of
Service.
- If you do not agree to comply with these or any future Terms of Service, do not use or access (or
continue
to use or access) the Service or the App.
II. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICE
- The Service allows users to practice language skills free of charge, and optionally purchase a premium
membership.
- Unless explicitly stated otherwise, any new feature that is added to the current Service, including the
release of new tools and resources, shall be subject to the Terms of Service.
III. FEES
- The basic version of the Service can be used completely free of charge. However, you have the option to
subscribe to a Premium membership in order to remove advertisements and get access to additional
learning functionalities (such as
advanced counters, etc.) on the App. You also have the option to purchase other services
or materials (such as live lessons and business courses) whether or not you have a Premium
membership.
- The prices and the related terms for all Paid Services, including the Premium membership, are governed
by
the Paid Services terms set out in clause 4 below.
IV. PAID SERVICES
Where you have purchased a Paid Service (including a Premium membership)
the following terms set out in this clause 4 shall also apply to your use and access of the Paid Service.
Where there is any
conflict between this clause 4 and the other terms set out in these Terms of Service, the terms in this
clause 4
will prevail. The following terms shall apply to you whether or not you are the individual using the Paid
Service or if you are a third party facilitating and/or paying on behalf of an individual (such as a
student,
employee, agent, contractor or other representative) to use the Paid Service. Notwithstanding the foregoing
if
you are using the Paid Service pursuant to an agreement entered into by Numbiro and a third party paying for
and/or facilitating your use of the Paid Service then where the terms below are in conflict with the terms
of
the agreement entered into by Numbiro and the third party the terms of such agreement shall prevail.
- All purchases are made via a third party app store (the "Store"). For example, the Google Play Store or
the Apple App Store.
- The ordering process for Paid Services on the App allows you to check your order before you proceed with
your purchase: please check the details of the order before you proceed to payment.
- By placing an order, you agree to pay the stipulated fees
for the relevant Paid Service(s) by credit card or any other form of payment accepted by the Store,
along with the
VAT (if applicable) and any other fees or amounts associated with such Paid Service(s).
You
acknowledge and agree that such fees may change from time to time. Any price changes will be announced
on
the Numbiro App and will not affect existing subscriptions (so if you have signed up for a membership
for
a certain price, price changes won’t affect your existing subscription, and will only apply to any
future
subscription purchase).
- In relation to Paid Services that are offered on a subscription basis, Numbiro may offer different
subscription
periods so that you can choose the one that best meets your needs. Payment for subscription-based Paid
Services is made in advance.
- Where a subscription-based Paid Service renews automatically, you will be charged automatically by the
Store
at the end of your current subscription period and your subscription will, unless you cancel it, be
renewed
for the same period of time. Subscriptions do not expire during the subscription period due to non-use
of
the subscribed Paid Service. You can check on the length of your subscription at any time by
contacting your Store or by going to "Premium Status" within the App.
- Numbiro may run promotions and free offers which may be subject to additional terms or restrictions.
These
promotions and offers may not be shared among different Users.
- Please be advised before you pay that, unless and to the extent expressly set out to the contrary in
these
Paid Services terms
or otherwise agreed
with Numbiro in writing, any amounts paid in advance will not be refunded.
- You may request a refund for a purchase via your purchasing Store. Such a request is subject to the
terms and conditions of the Store and Numbiro offers no guarantee that a refund will be granted.
- Numbiro may suspend or terminate your access to and/or use of any one or more Paid Services immediately
and
without liability if:
9.1. Numbiro has reason to believe that you are in breach of or have acted inconsistently with these
Paid
Services Terms; or
9.2. Numbiro is entitled to suspend or terminate your account, or your use of the Service generally,
under
clause 9 below.

- Applicable legislation and jurisdiction. The Terms of Service and the relationship between you and

shall be governed by the laws of England without regard to any conflict of law provisions of any
jurisdiction. You and Numbiro agree to submit to the exclusive jurisdiction of the English courts,
except that
Numbiro may seek injunctive relief in any jurisdiction in order to enforce its rights under these Terms
of

third
party licensors may take action against you to enforce their Intellectual Property Rights or other
rights.

of the

the
court should endeavour to give effect to the parties' intentions as reflected in the provision, and the
other provisions of the Terms of Service remain in full force and effect.
- Entire agreement. You agree that these Terms of Service represent the entire understanding between you
and
Numbiro in respect of your relationship with Numbiro as a User (except in respect of Paid Services,
which are
