By using the Edmoro application, website(s), or any related services (the “Service”), you agree to these Terms of Service (the “Terms”). This is a legally binding agreement between Mohamed Ali (“Owner”, “we”, “us”, or “our”) and you. If you do not agree, do not download or use the Service.
We may amend these Terms at any time. Unless a different effective date is required by law, changes take effect when posted in-app or on our site. It’s your responsibility to review the Terms periodically; if you find them unacceptable, stop using the Service. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede prior agreements or understandings. If you violate these Terms, we may suspend or terminate access.

Privacy Policy: https://edmoro.com/edmoro/Privacy_Policy.html
1) Privacy
We collect and process limited information to operate the Service (e.g., generating your lesson content, purchases, anti-fraud, fair-use limits, diagnostics) under a lawful basis. Using certain features sends content to our servers and our providers — for example, the word you are learning, text you ask us to translate, photos of writing you ask us to check, and (for subscribers) voice recordings you ask us to transcribe. See our Privacy Policy for details and choices. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
2) Eligibility; Export & Sanctions Compliance
Minimum age. You must be at least 16 years old to use the Service.
Legal capacity and parental authorization. If you are under the age of full legal capacity in your jurisdiction, your parent or legal guardian must review and accept these Terms on your behalf, and by using the Service you confirm they have done so.
Where prohibited. We do not knowingly permit use of the Service where applicable law prohibits it, including where a higher minimum age applies. Separately, where our processing of personal data relies on consent and you are below the age at which you can give that consent under local data-protection law, that consent must be given or authorized by the holder of parental responsibility; see our Privacy Policy.
You also represent and warrant that you (i) are not located in a country/region subject to U.S. embargo or on a U.S. government list of prohibited or restricted parties and (ii) will comply with applicable export-control and sanctions laws. We may restrict access where required by law.
3) Licensed Application; Scope of License
Subject to these Terms and the Apple Media Services Usage Rules, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to install and use the iOS app on Apple-branded devices you own or control, and as otherwise permitted by the Usage Rules set out in the Apple Media Services Terms and Conditions, including any applicable Family Sharing, volume-purchase, and Legacy Contact rights, solely for personal, non-commercial language learning. Apps are licensed, not sold. Except for this license, no rights are granted or implied.
Except as the Apple Usage Rules permit, you may not distribute the app over a network where it could be used by multiple devices at the same time, transfer, resell, rent, lease, or sublicense the app, or copy/modify/reverse-engineer/disassemble/attempt to derive source code (except where permitted by law or applicable open-source licenses). The Service is licensed for individual learners; use in a classroom, course, school, or other organizational or commercial setting requires our prior written permission.
4) Ownership; Restrictions
We and our licensors own all rights in the Service, including content, artwork, illustrations, audio, code, and trademarks. You agree not to:
- use the Service if you’ve been banned;
- bypass, interfere with, or disable any security, entitlement, or rate-limit controls;
- disrupt the Service using automation tools, bots, mods, MITM proxies, or unauthorized third-party software;
- scrape, intercept, emulate, or redirect traffic or protocols; or access the Service through undocumented APIs, automated clients, unauthorized interfaces, or methods other than those we make available (this does not restrict your use of standard operating-system features such as accessibility tools, dictation, Siri, the share sheet, or external keyboards);
- use the Service as a general-purpose translation, transcription, text-to-speech, or image-generation service, or resell or relay its output to others;
- infringe intellectual-property or other rights; or use the Service unlawfully.
Device security. The Service may not function properly on jailbroken, rooted, modified, or otherwise compromised devices, and such modifications may expose you to security risks. We may restrict access where such modification creates a security, fraud, or compatibility risk.
4A) App Content & IP Protection.
“App Content” means the text, word lists, definitions, example sentences, stories, news summaries, conversation scenarios, dialogues, quizzes, transcripts, translations, illustrations, audio, animations, layouts, compilations/collections, metadata, and databases made available through the Service. App Content includes material owned or controlled by us, material licensed to us, and material generated or assembled by the Service. Third-party content — including YouTube videos, the source articles behind our news summaries, and any other material originating with a third party — remains subject to the rights and terms of its respective owners, and nothing here claims ownership of it. App Content is protected by copyright and other laws. Except as expressly enabled by the Service’s user interface for your personal, non-commercial use, you may not reproduce, distribute, publicly display, perform, publish, scrape, data-mine, export, or create derivative works from any App Content.
App Content includes material generated for you by AI at your request. As between you and us, and to the extent we have rights in such material, we retain those rights and grant you only the personal, non-commercial license described in these Terms. We make no representation that any particular AI-generated output attracts copyright or other protection in any jurisdiction. Because content is generated from shared prompts and caches, identical or similar content may be provided to other users; nothing in the Service grants you exclusivity in any word, sentence, translation, image, or audio file.
No systematic dataset/model use. You may not systematically extract, collect, scrape, or compile App Content, or use it to train, fine-tune, evaluate, benchmark, or improve any machine-learning or AI system, or to create a dataset, without our prior written permission. This is aimed at bulk or systematic use; it does not restrict ordinary personal study, such as asking an assistant to explain a sentence you are learning.
All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
5) Accounts (Not Required); Device Identity; iCloud Sync
You can use the Service without creating an account, a username, or a password. Your device is recognised by an anonymous identifier (the “App Account Token”), which is how your subscription and your fair-use limits are applied. Do not share, copy, or spoof that identifier.
iCloud sync. If you are signed into iCloud, your learning progress is synced through Apple’s iCloud services associated with your Apple ID, so it follows you to a new device. That sync is provided by Apple under Apple’s terms; it requires an Apple ID, sufficient iCloud storage, and connectivity. We do not control Apple’s iCloud service and generally cannot access, recover, restore, or export data stored there on your behalf. You are responsible for maintaining your own Apple ID and backups.
Loss of progress. Progress, streaks, and saved content may be lost if you sign out of iCloud, disable sync, run out of iCloud storage, delete the app without sync enabled, use the in-app Reset, or lose your device. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for lost progress or content.
If we introduce accounts later, you will be responsible for safeguarding credentials and all activity under your account and must promptly notify us of any suspected compromise.
6) The Service; AI Content; No Professional Advice
What the Service is. Edmoro is a self-study English-learning app. It teaches vocabulary and everyday English through daily word cards, speaking and writing practice, stories, news summaries, podcasts, videos, listening activities, shadowing dialogues, guided conversation practice, and translation tools. Levels, XP, streaks, badges, and similar features are motivational only.
AI content. Much of the content — including definitions, example sentences, word families, translations, stories, conversation replies, quizzes, spoken audio, and illustrations — is generated by artificial intelligence, and speech recognition and text recognition are performed by automated systems. All of it may be inaccurate, incomplete, unnatural, or wrong. Translations, transcriptions, and scoring of your speaking and writing may be incorrect. Do not rely on the Service where accuracy matters.
No professional advice. The Service is not professional advice (including medical, legal, financial, immigration, or psychological advice), and content that resembles news is a simplified summary produced for language practice, not journalism. Do not rely on the Service for decisions that could affect your health, finances, safety, immigration status, or legal rights.
No guaranteed outcome. Edmoro is not an accredited school or examination body. We do not certify proficiency, and we make no promise that using the Service will produce any particular level of English, exam result, qualification, or other outcome.
Not a translation service. The translation, transcription, and text-recognition tools are provided for learning. They are not certified, and must not be used for legal, medical, official, or safety-critical translation.
Health & safety. Take regular breaks, keep audio at a safe volume when using headphones, be mindful of your surroundings, and do not use the Service while driving or doing anything else that requires your attention. Stop if you experience discomfort.
7) Your Content
Some features let you submit content (“Your Content”): text you type or select for translation, photos of handwriting or printed pages, voice recordings, messages in conversation practice, and the name and picture you choose for your profile.
You must have the necessary rights to whatever you submit. You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, process, transmit to our service providers, and display Your Content solely to operate and provide the Service to you — for example, to translate the text, read the words in your photo, transcribe your recording, or generate a reply. We do not use Your Content to advertise to you, and we do not sell it.
Do not submit: other people’s personal or confidential information; identity, financial, medical, or government documents; material you do not have the right to share; or content that is unlawful, abusive, hateful, harassing, sexually explicit, or that attempts to make the Service produce such material. Photograph and record only what you intend to be processed.
We may apply automated and manual safeguards, refuse or filter requests, and remove or decline to generate content that violates these Terms or applicable law or provider policies. You are solely responsible for Your Content and for ensuring it does not violate any rights or laws.
Copyright complaints. If you believe content infringes your rights, email support@edmoro.com with: (a) identification of the work claimed infringed, (b) the allegedly infringing material and location, (c) your contact details, and (d) a statement of good-faith belief and accuracy under penalty of perjury that you are the rightsholder or authorized to act.
8) Progress & Rewards; Subscriptions; Fees
Progress & rewards. XP, levels, streaks, badges, stars, and similar features are motivational only. They are licensed, not sold; have no cash value; are non-transferable; cannot be bought, sold, traded, or exchanged; and may be changed, reset, recalculated, or discontinued at any time. If your access is terminated or the Service is discontinued, you forfeit them without compensation, except where required by law. There is no gambling, no wagering, and no real-world prize.
Free and Pro. A substantial part of the Service is free, including the daily words, the built-in library of stories, news, podcasts, videos, listening activities, shadowing dialogues, practice exercises, and all content that has already been generated and cached. Edmoro Pro is an auto-renewing subscription that unlocks features which require new content to be generated on demand or which cost us per use — including conversation practice, voice input, generating explanations for words nobody has requested before, on-demand translations and illustrations, and generated stories beyond the built-in library. The exact division between free and Pro features may change over time. Fees, terms, and duration are shown at purchase.
Billing via Apple. Purchases are billed and managed by Apple through your Apple ID (subject to Apple’s terms). Auto-renewal continues until you cancel in Settings → Apple ID → Subscriptions. Cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current subscription period to avoid automatic renewal, subject to Apple’s applicable billing rules. The subscription’s duration, price, renewal terms, and any trial are shown on the App Store purchase screen before you buy; that screen, not these Terms, is the authoritative pre-purchase disclosure.
Server-authoritative entitlements. Access to Pro features is controlled server-side, tied to your device’s anonymous identifier (the “App Account Token”) and/or purchase history, and validated through our subscription provider. If validation fails, is delayed, or your device is offline, Pro features may be unavailable until refreshed. Temporary technical failures on our side may delay entitlement verification or access to Pro features; where that happens we will use reasonable efforts to restore access, and such an interruption does not remove the subscription you have paid for. We may enforce fair-use limits, daily and weekly usage caps, and anti-fraud checks; Pro is for personal use and is not an unlimited or unmetered entitlement.
Trials & promotions. If offered, trials convert to paid unless cancelled before the trial ends. Eligibility and terms may change.
Price/plan changes. We may change prices or offerings consistent with Apple policy and applicable law; Apple may require your consent for increases.
9) Refunds
Payments are processed by Apple, which is the merchant of record for App Store purchases. Refunds are handled by Apple under Apple’s terms and applicable consumer laws (e.g., via reportaproblem.apple.com). We cannot issue or control App Store refunds directly. Subject to the paragraph below, all sales are final.
Your statutory rights. Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any statutory cancellation, withdrawal, refund, or other consumer rights available to you under the law of your country of residence, and nothing here is intended to override them. Where applicable law gives you a right to withdraw from a contract for digital content or digital services, that right may be affected once performance begins with your express consent and acknowledgement, to the extent permitted by law; because Apple is the merchant of record, any such consent, and the cancellation and refund process itself, are handled through Apple’s purchase flow rather than by us. If a mandatory consumer-protection rule of your country conflicts with anything in these Terms, that rule prevails.
10) Acceptable Use; Security; Network/Device Charges
Do not access data not intended for you; probe or test vulnerabilities; interfere with the Service (e.g., viruses, overload, spam); send unsolicited promotions; or falsify headers. Do not attempt to exhaust, evade, or automate around usage limits, or to use the Service’s AI features for anything other than your own language learning.
Connectivity & charges. The Service requires an active Internet connection to obtain new content; previously downloaded content may remain available offline. You are responsible for your network, data, and roaming charges, and for the storage space the app uses on your device. Keep your device charged; we are not responsible if you cannot access the Service due to storage, battery, or connectivity issues.
We may throttle, limit, suspend, or terminate access (with or without notice) if we suspect violations, unlawful activity, abuse of usage limits, or misuse.
11) Availability; Remote Content; Caching; Maintenance & Changes
We may add, modify, or remove features, activities, words, lessons, or content; set usage caps; perform maintenance or system updates; or discontinue the Service (in whole or part) at any time. Content is delivered remotely and cached on your device and on our servers, and the app may download content in advance so activities open quickly and work offline. Cached content on your device is subject to a storage limit and is cleared automatically as that limit is reached; you can also clear it yourself in the app. Content you have not downloaded requires connectivity.
Where content has already been generated, the Service serves the stored version rather than generating a new one; what is stored, how long it is kept, and whether a given request is served from storage or generated fresh may vary and may change over time. If content cannot be generated or retrieved within a reasonable time (e.g., due to network conditions, provider limits, outages, usage caps, or anti-fraud checks), the affected feature may be unavailable, degraded, or served without optional elements such as illustrations or spoken audio. We do not guarantee availability, latency, uniqueness, or accuracy of any content. We strive to minimize disruptions but do not guarantee uptime. You agree to receive app updates; some updates may be required for continued use.
12) Third-Party Services & Application Stores
The Service links to and integrates third-party services (e.g., Apple, our hosting and AI providers, our subscription provider, and YouTube). Those services are governed by their own terms and policies. Your use must comply with applicable App Store terms. We are not responsible for third-party content, services, or fees.
YouTube. The video activity plays third-party videos using the embedded YouTube player. By using it, you agree to be bound by the YouTube Terms of Service, and you acknowledge that Google’s use of information is governed by the Google Privacy Policy. Videos are the property of their respective owners and are made available through YouTube; we do not own, host, or control the videos themselves, and they may be changed, restricted, or removed by their owners or by YouTube at any time. You may not download, copy, or redistribute them. Material we create or assemble around a video — such as our own clip references, timings, and the exercises and study tools we build — is App Content; any captions, titles, thumbnails, or other material originating from YouTube or the video's owner remain theirs.
News. News activities are simplified summaries generated or prepared for language-learning purposes, based on publicly reported events, with attribution and a link to the source. We are not affiliated with, and do not endorse or vouch for, the linked sources, and we are not responsible for their content.
13) Apple App Store Terms
If you obtained the app from Apple:
These Terms are between you and the Owner, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the app or its content and has no obligation to provide maintenance or support.
In case of any app non-conformity, you may notify Apple; Apple may refund the purchase price (if any). To the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligations with respect to the app.
Apple is not responsible for addressing your or any third party’s claims relating to the app or your possession/use, including product liability, legal/regulatory compliance, or consumer-protection claims.
In the event of a third-party claim that the app or your possession and use infringes intellectual-property rights, Apple has no responsibility for investigation, defense, settlement, or discharge of such claim.
You represent and warrant you are not in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as “terrorist-supporting,” and you are not on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and, upon your acceptance, may enforce them against you.
14) Feedback
If you provide ideas, feedback, or suggestions, you agree we may use them without restriction or obligation to compensate you.
15) No Warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available.” We disclaim all warranties—express, implied, or statutory—including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, availability, and accuracy. We do not warrant the Service will meet your requirements, be uninterrupted or error-free, or that defects will be corrected. AI outputs, translations, transcriptions, text recognition, and pronunciation or writing assessments may be inaccurate, and we do not warrant any learning outcome.
16) Limitation of Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, consequential, special, punitive, or similar damages (including lost profits, data, learning progress, goodwill, or business interruption) arising from or related to these Terms or the Service, whether based on contract, tort, or other theory, even if advised of the possibility. Our total liability to you will not exceed the amounts you paid to us for in-app purchases during the six (6) months preceding the claim. These Terms do not limit liability for gross negligence or willful misconduct where such limitation is prohibited by law, nor do they affect your non-waivable consumer rights.
17) Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Owner and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your use of the Service, Your Content, your breach of these Terms, or your violation of third-party rights. We will promptly notify you of any claim; you will cooperate in the defense. We may assume exclusive defense and control; you will assist in asserting available defenses.
18) Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access at any time if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or for operational/security reasons (including anti-fraud and abuse of usage limits). Upon termination, your license ends and you must stop using the Service. Termination does not entitle you to a refund of any unused subscription period except as required by law or Apple’s policies. Sections that should survive (e.g., IP, disclaimers, limitations, indemnity, governing law) will continue.
19) Force Majeure
We are not liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, labor disputes, utility or Internet failures, failures or restrictions of third-party providers, or shortages of materials.
20) Governing Law & Venue
These Terms and any dispute or claim arising out of or in connection with them or their subject matter or formation shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Arab Republic of Egypt, excluding its conflict-of-law rules. The courts of Cairo, Egypt shall have exclusive jurisdiction to settle any such dispute or claim. If you are a consumer, mandatory consumer-protection laws of your place of residence will apply to the extent required.
21) Regional Consumer Notices (where applicable)
EU/UK Consumers. If you qualify as a consumer and have your habitual residence in a country with higher mandatory consumer protections, those protections prevail to the extent required by law.
Australian Consumers. Nothing in these Terms excludes, restricts, or modifies any non-excludable rights under the Competition and Consumer Act 2010 (Cth). To the fullest extent permitted by law, our liability for breach of a non-excludable guarantee is limited, at our option, to re-supplying the services or paying the cost of having the services supplied again.
U.S. Users (clarifications). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain exclusions or limitations; where prohibited, those exclusions/limitations will not apply to you.
22) Changes to These Terms
We may amend these Terms at any time. We will appropriately inform you of changes (e.g., posting in-app or on our site) and, where required by law, specify the date they enter into force or provide advance notice. Continued use signifies acceptance. If you do not accept changes, stop using the Service. Prior versions are available upon request.
23) Assignment
We may transfer or assign our rights and obligations under these Terms in connection with a reorganization, merger, acquisition, or asset transfer, taking into account your legitimate interests. You may not assign or transfer your rights or obligations without our prior written consent.
24) Severability; No Waiver; Entire Agreement; Language
If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the rest remains in effect. A failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver. These Terms (and incorporated policies, including the Privacy Policy) are the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service. If translated, the English version controls unless local law requires otherwise.
