Terms of Service

1. Who we are and accepting these terms

Speakfarer is run by Civic Brief, LLC ("we", "us"). By creating an account or using Speakfarer on the web or on Android, you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy.

Speakfarer is in a private beta for invited adults in the United States. You must be at least 18 years old to use it.

2. Your account

You sign in with a one-time code or link sent to your email address. Keep access to that inbox secure: anyone who can read it can sign in as you.

Your account is for you alone. Don't share it or create accounts for others.

3. The beta, limits and price

Speakfarer is free during the beta. To keep it running, each account has daily limits (for example, minutes of voice practice); they reset at your local midnight.

Features, content and limits may change while we test, and the beta may end. If we ever introduce paid plans, we will tell you first and you won't be charged unless you choose a plan.

4. The AI tutor

The tutor's replies, corrections, explanations and translations are generated by artificial intelligence. They can be wrong, incomplete or unnatural.

Speakfarer is a practice tool. It is not a certified course, an official translation or professional advice. Don't rely on it for legal, medical, immigration, financial or other important matters.

If the tutor produces something offensive or harmful, tap Report under that reply, or email support@civiary.com.

5. Your content

What you write, say and save in Speakfarer stays yours. You give us permission to store and process it only to run the service for you, as described in the Privacy Policy.

Please don't enter sensitive personal information (such as ID numbers, health or financial details) in conversations or writing exercises; the lessons never need it.

6. Acceptable use

Don't use Speakfarer to break the law; to harass anyone; to create sexual, hateful or violent content; or to try to make the tutor produce harmful material.

Don't try to get around the daily limits, access other people's accounts or data, overload or disrupt the service, or copy, scrape or reverse-engineer it.

7. Our content

The app, its lessons, scenarios, texts and design belong to Civic Brief, LLC or its licensors. We give you a personal, non-transferable licence to use them for your own learning while you have an account. Some parts, such as the tutor's voice, are licensed from third parties for non-commercial use.

If you download the app from Google Play, Google Play's terms also apply to that download.

8. Ending your account

You can delete your account at any time in Profile on the website (the Android app links there from its Profile). This permanently removes your data, as described in the Privacy Policy.

We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, or end the beta. Where we can, we will tell you first and give you a chance to export your data.

9. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

Speakfarer is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, including that it will be accurate, uninterrupted or error-free, to the extent the law allows.

To the extent the law allows, Civic Brief, LLC is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages, or for lost data or profits. Our total liability for any claim about Speakfarer is limited to US $50.

10. Governing law, changes and contact

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Florida, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute will be heard in the state or federal courts located in Florida, and you and we agree to their jurisdiction.

We may update these terms. We will show the new effective date here and, for important changes, tell you in the app or by email before they apply.
