Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of these Terms

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are an agreement between you and Muhammadyusuf Abdullayev (“we,” “us,” or “our”), the publisher of Ruscha Gaps. They apply to Ruscha Gaps and related language-learning editions that link to this page (together, the “App”). By downloading, opening, purchasing through, or using the App, you agree to these Terms and the Privacy Policy.

If you do not agree, do not use the App. If you use the App for a child or on behalf of another person, you confirm that you have authority to accept these Terms for them.

2. What the App provides

Ruscha Gaps is a language-learning tool with phrase collections, translations, audio, games, search, favorites, study progress, pronunciation practice, and related features. Some content is available offline after installation or download. Other features — such as sign-in, configuration, purchases, restoring premium access, notifications, or content updates — may require an internet connection and third-party services.

The App is for general educational and informational use. It is not a professional translation, interpretation, educational-accreditation, medical, legal, safety, or emergency service. Do not rely on it where an inaccurate phrase or pronunciation result could cause harm.

3. Accounts

The App may create an anonymous account automatically. You may also be able to sign in with Google or Apple. You are responsible for keeping your device and provider account secure and for activity performed through them. Do not access another person's account without permission or misrepresent your identity.

The in-app deletion control deletes only your Firebase Authentication identity. To request deletion of other developer-controlled cloud data, follow the instructions in the account-deletion section of the Privacy Policy; if your account is anonymous, contact us before using the in-app control. Deleting an App identity does not delete local learning data or your separate Google, Apple, store, or Telegram account, and some purchase or legal records may need to be retained.

4. License and intellectual property

Subject to these Terms, we give you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to install and use the App for lawful, non-commercial language learning. We and our licensors retain all rights in the App, including its software, design, illustrations, audio, datasets, text, branding, and other content, except for rights expressly granted to you.

You may not copy, sell, sublicense, rent, distribute, publicly reproduce, scrape, extract, reverse engineer, or create derivative products from the App or its content except where applicable law expressly permits it despite this restriction. Third-party names and trademarks remain the property of their respective owners.

5. Premium purchases, restoration, and refunds

The App currently offers a one-time, non-subscription purchase that unlocks the premium features shown at checkout. Your app store displays the final price, currency, taxes, and purchase terms before you confirm. Google Play or Apple's App Store processes payment; RevenueCat helps us validate the purchase and manage premium entitlement. We do not receive your full payment-card or bank details.

• Restoration: premium access may be restored using the same store account and, where required, the same or properly linked App account.
• Refunds: refund eligibility and processing are governed by the store where you purchased and by mandatory consumer law. Request refunds through that store unless its process directs you to us.
• No transfer or resale: a premium entitlement is personal and may not be sold, shared between unrelated accounts, or used to bypass store rules.

6. Device permissions and third-party services

Pronunciation modes may request microphone and speech-recognition permission. Your device or recognition provider may process voice audio to create a transcript. Results can vary with accent, background noise, device, language support, connectivity, and provider availability. You can deny or revoke permission, but affected features will not work.

The App relies on services supplied by Google, Firebase, Apple, RevenueCat, app stores, device speech providers, and — only when you choose its link — Telegram. Their terms and policies apply to their services. We are not responsible for a third-party service's independent content, account decisions, outages, or changes, but this does not limit any responsibility we cannot exclude by law.

7. Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• use the App for unlawful, fraudulent, abusive, or harmful activity;
• interfere with, overload, probe, bypass, or disrupt the App, its security, purchase checks, or servers;
• use automation to extract content or create an unreasonable load on our services;
• attempt to obtain premium access without a valid entitlement;
• upload, transmit, or send malware, unlawful content, or another person's personal information without authority;
• remove notices, impersonate us, or falsely suggest that we endorse another product or service.

8. Availability, updates, and changes

We may improve, add, remove, limit, localize, or replace features and content. Free-mode limits, practice cooldowns, supported devices, speech languages, and online services may change. We may issue updates for security, compatibility, policy, or product reasons; an older version may stop working correctly or may need an update.

We aim to keep the App useful and available, but we do not promise uninterrupted access. Maintenance, network failures, third-party outages, device limitations, legal changes, or events outside our reasonable control may interrupt service.

9. Educational-content and service disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the App is provided “as is” and “as available.” We do not guarantee that translations, spellings, definitions, audio, speech recognition, pronunciation scores, datasets, or learning outcomes are complete, current, error-free, or suitable for every dialect or context. You remain responsible for checking important language with a qualified speaker or professional.

Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties, remedies, or other rights that applicable consumer law does not allow you to waive.

10. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive loss, or for lost profits, data, goodwill, or opportunities arising from use of or inability to use the App. Our total liability for claims related to the App will not exceed the amount you paid for the App during the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim.

These limits do not apply where prohibited by law, including liability that cannot be limited for fraud, intentional misconduct, death, personal injury, or mandatory consumer protections.

11. Suspension and termination

You may stop using the App at any time. We may suspend access to online or account-based features if reasonably necessary to protect users or services, comply with law or store requirements, investigate abuse, or address a serious breach of these Terms. Where practical and legally appropriate, we will provide notice or an opportunity to resolve the issue.

Provisions that by their nature should survive termination — including ownership, purchase records, disclaimers, liability limits, and dispute terms — will continue to apply.

12. Applicable law and disputes

Applicable law governs these Terms. Nothing in them overrides mandatory consumer protections available where you live. Before starting formal proceedings, please contact us and give us a reasonable opportunity to resolve the issue. You may also use any consumer-protection process or court that applicable law entitles you to use.

13. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms when the App, purchases, providers, or legal requirements change. We will publish the revised Terms at this URL and update the effective date. If a change materially affects your rights, we will provide additional notice where required. Your continued use after the effective date means you accept the updated Terms; if you do not, stop using the App.
