Terms of Service

Last updated:

These terms are available in several languages. The English version is the reference version: if a translation differs from it, the English version applies.

These terms explain the rules for using Vocazu. By using Vocazu or creating an account, you agree to them. Please read them together with our Privacy Policy.

1. Who we are

Vocazu is operated by Smart App Studio, registered in Ontario, Canada (“we”, “us”).

You can reach us through the Contact page or at support@vocazu.com.

2. The service

Vocazu is a web app for learning vocabulary in English, French and Spanish, with pictures, example sentences, audio, conversations and practice tools.

Some content is free: part of it for visitors without an account, and more with a free account. The rest is Premium content, available with a paid subscription.

3. Accounts

  • You sign in with a Google or Apple account.
  • An account is for one person. Please do not share it.
  • You must be at least 13 years old, or the minimum age in your country if it is higher. If you are under 18, you need a parent’s or guardian’s permission to buy Premium.
  • You are responsible for your account and for keeping your Google or Apple account secure. If you think someone else has used your account, tell us through the Contact page.

4. Premium subscriptions

  • Premium is offered as a monthly, 6-month or yearly plan. Each plan renews automatically at the end of its period until you cancel it.
  • Payments are processed and sold by Link, a Stripe company, acting as reseller and merchant of record (shown at checkout as “Sold through Link”). Link’s terms and privacy policy apply to the payment.
  • Prices may be shown in your local currency. Any applicable taxes are calculated at checkout and shown before you pay.

5. Plan changes and cancellation

  • An upgrade takes effect immediately, with a prorated charge for the rest of the current period.
  • A downgrade takes effect at the end of the period you have already paid for.
  • Cancelling stops the subscription from renewing. Premium stays active until the end of the paid period.
  • You can make these changes under “Manage subscription” on the Premium page, or on link.com.

6. Refunds

You can request a refund through the Contact page or through Link support.

Nothing in these terms limits your rights under consumer protection law, including the right to cancel within a cooling-off period in the European Union and the United Kingdom where it applies.

7. Acceptable use

Vocazu is for your personal, non-commercial learning. You agree not to:

  • scrape, crawl or bulk-download words, pictures or audio;
  • copy, redistribute or resell Vocazu’s words, pictures or audio;
  • try to get around Premium or other access tiers, or to break or bypass the app’s security.

8. Intellectual property

Vocazu’s content, including its words, translations, example sentences, pictures and audio, and the app itself belong to Vocazu or its licensors. Using Vocazu does not give you ownership of any of it.

9. Availability and changes

We keep improving Vocazu, so features and content may change, be added or be removed.

We work to keep Vocazu available, but we cannot guarantee that it will always be available, uninterrupted or free of errors.

Many pictures, recordings and example sentences are created with the help of AI and reviewed by us, but they may still contain mistakes. Vocazu is a learning aid, not an authoritative reference.

10. Termination

We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms. You can stop using Vocazu at any time, and ask us to delete your account as described in the Privacy Policy.

11. Disclaimer and limitation of liability

Vocazu is provided “as is”. To the extent permitted by law, we make no warranties about it and are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability to you is limited to the amount you paid for Vocazu in the twelve months before the claim.

Nothing in these terms excludes or limits any liability that cannot be excluded or limited under the law that applies to you.

12. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada that apply there. This does not take away the protection of any mandatory consumer protection laws of the country where you live.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We will post changes on this page and update the date at the top; for significant changes, we will also notify users by email or in the app. If you keep using Vocazu after a change, the updated terms apply.
