1. Introduction
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to the Fabelino website, mobile apps and related services, including AI‑powered text, audio and optional voice features (collectively, the “Service”).
By creating an account, registering, generating a first chapter on our website, or otherwise using the Service in any way, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms.
If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Service.
If you are a consumer and reside in a country with mandatory consumer protection laws, those mandatory provisions take precedence over these Terms to the extent they are more favorable to you. Nothing in these Terms limits your mandatory rights under the law of your habitual residence.
2. Who may use Fabelino
Fabelino is intended solely for parents or legal guardians who use the Service on behalf of their children.
You may only use Fabelino and create an account if:
- you are at least 18 years old,
- you are legally authorized to share information about the child for whom you are creating stories, and
- you use the Service in accordance with the laws applicable in your country.
Children are not allowed to create their own Fabelino accounts or provide information to us directly.
You confirm that, as a parent or legal guardian, you are responsible for your child’s use of the Service and that you have obtained all necessary consents, permissions or authorizations, to the extent required under applicable law.
You are responsible for keeping your login credentials confidential and for all activities that occur under your account.
3. Consent when using and registering
If you generate a first chapter on our website before registering, or if you create an account in the app, you confirm by proceeding that you have read and accept these Terms and our Privacy Policy.
In the app, this may additionally be confirmed via a dedicated checkbox during registration. The Service may only be used by individuals who meet the requirements set out in Section 2.
4. Use of the Service
Fabelino may only be used for personal, non‑commercial purposes. You may use the Service to create, listen to, download, share and play personalized stories for your family, to the extent the respective feature is provided by us and you comply with these Terms.
You agree not to:
- use the Service for any unlawful purpose or in violation of applicable law,
- attempt to copy, reverse engineer, reconstruct, rent, sell or resell the Service or any part thereof,
- use automated tools such as bots, scripts or scrapers to access or interact with the Service,
- input, upload or generate content that is glorifying violence, pornographic, sexually explicit, hateful, discriminatory, extremist, abusive or otherwise clearly inappropriate for children,
- circumvent security mechanisms, usage limits or technical protection measures,
- use the Service in any way that infringes the rights of third parties, in particular copyrights, trademarks, personality rights or privacy/data protection rights.
We reserve the right to remove content and to temporarily suspend or permanently terminate your access to the Service if we reasonably believe that you are violating these Terms or that the Service is being misused.
4a. Special rules for voice and audio features
Where we provide audio or voice features, in particular an optional personalized reading voice, you may only use them with your own voice or with a voice that you are legally authorized to provide and use.
The following is in particular not permitted:
- using children’s voices with the voice‑clone feature,
- using the voice of any other person without their explicit authorization,
- imitating or using the voices of famous persons, characters, actors or other protected or clearly identifiable voices,
- using the voice feature for deceptive, deepfake, fraudulent, harassing, defamatory, manipulative or otherwise unlawful purposes.
Where we provide features to download or share AI‑generated audio content, you may only use or distribute such content in a manner that complies with these Terms, applicable law and any applicable transparency or labeling obligations.
5. Content and intellectual property
All rights in and to the Service itself, including the app, website, software, user interfaces, designs, logos, trademarks and other content, are owned by us or our licensors.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a personal, non‑exclusive, non‑transferable and revocable license to use the Service and to download, store, share and play the stories and audio files generated for your account for private, non‑commercial purposes.
You may only use generated stories and audio files in a private context or in another context expressly permitted by us. Without our prior written consent, you may not sell, license, publicly perform, commercially exploit or integrate them into a commercial service.
To the extent you input content into the Service, such as names, preferences, text entries, ideas or other information (“User Input”), you grant us a worldwide, non‑exclusive, royalty‑free, transferable and sublicensable license to use, store, process and technically reproduce such User Input for the purposes of providing, operating, maintaining, debugging, securing and improving the Service.
We do not use your User Input or personal data to develop or train our own AI models beyond what is necessary to provide the specific feature you are using.
If you submit feedback, suggestions or ideas to us, we may use them freely without any compensation or other obligation to you.
5a. Third‑party rights and prohibited content
You may not input, upload, generate, share or distribute any content via the Service that infringes third‑party rights, in particular:
- copyrights or related rights, e.g. protected characters, illustrations, texts, music, movies or games,
- trademark, trade dress or design rights, e.g. protected names, logos, distinctive characters or design elements of well‑known brands,
- personality, privacy/data protection or other personal rights, including the unauthorized use of another person’s voice or identity.
You are solely responsible for ensuring that your User Input, voice recordings, generated content and shared content do not infringe any such rights and comply with applicable law.
To the extent permitted by law, you agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from and against any claims brought by third parties arising out of any infringing or otherwise unlawful use of the Service by you, including reasonable costs of legal defense.
We are entitled to block or remove content and to restrict access to the Service if we reasonably believe that such content infringes third‑party rights or violates these Terms, or where we are legally required to do so.
5b. Reporting infringements and misuse
If you believe that content on or via the Service infringes third‑party rights or is being misused, you can notify us at hi@fabelino.ai. Please describe the content in question as precisely as possible and explain why you believe there is an infringement or misuse.
We may review reported content, temporarily block it, remove it or take other appropriate measures, including restricting or terminating accounts in the event of repeated or serious violations.
6. Privacy and children’s data
To personalize stories and provide the Service, we may process certain information, in particular details about the child such as first name, age, gender, language and interests, as well as entries you make when creating stories.
We do not sell your data or your child’s data. We only share personal data with carefully selected service providers to the extent necessary to provide, secure and improve the Service.
Details on which data we collect, how we use it, which third‑party providers we rely on and how you can exercise your rights can be found in our current Privacy Policy.
If you exercise certain privacy rights, such as deleting your account or withdrawing consent for the voice‑clone feature, this may mean that the Service is no longer available in whole or in part.
7. Payments, subscriptions and story packages
The Service may include free and paid features. In particular, we may offer the following paid options:
- recurring subscriptions, such as monthly or yearly premium subscriptions, and
- usage‑based purchases, such as packages with a certain number of additional stories.
Prices, currency, scope of services and billing intervals will be clearly displayed to you before you complete a purchase.
If you purchase a paid subscription or in‑app purchase via an app store such as the Apple App Store or Google Play, the terms of the respective store regarding billing, cancellation, renewal and refunds will apply in addition to these Terms.
Subscriptions renew automatically unless they are cancelled in time via the account settings of the relevant app store. Where your purchase is managed via an app store, we generally cannot cancel or modify it for you.
Purchased story packages or other digital credits are tied to your account, are non‑transferable, cannot be redeemed for cash and are generally non‑refundable, unless mandatory law or the rules of the respective app store provide otherwise.
Where technically supported, an account can be used on multiple devices. However, there is no entitlement to app‑store‑wide family sharing or cross‑platform portability of paid purchases, unless expressly provided by us or the respective store.
We may change prices, introduce new plans or adjust existing offers. Such changes will not apply retroactively to periods you have already paid for.
8. Availability, changes and termination
We aim to provide the Service in a continuous, secure and user‑friendly manner. However, we cannot guarantee that the Service will be available at all times, free from errors or interruptions.
We may update, modify, restrict or remove features, content or components of the Service at any time, in particular for technical, legal, security‑related or business reasons. This may include providing certain AI or audio features as beta or test features, modifying them or discontinuing them.
You may delete your account at any time directly in the app or by contacting us to request deletion. When you delete your account, your right to use the Service ends, without prejudice to any mandatory statutory rights and any remaining obligations.
We may temporarily suspend or permanently terminate your access to the Service if:
- you repeatedly or materially violate these Terms,
- we are legally required to do so,
- this is necessary for security reasons, or
- we discontinue the Service in whole or in part.
Where economically and technically reasonable, we will inform you with reasonable advance notice if we permanently discontinue the Service.
9. Disclaimer and limitation of liability
The Service and the generated stories are intended solely for entertainment and general well‑being. They do not constitute medical, psychological, therapeutic, educational or legal advice.
Content generated using AI systems, third‑party APIs or voice technologies may be inaccurate, incomplete, misleading or unsuitable for certain purposes. You should not rely solely on such content, in particular not for decisions with legal, medical, financial or other significant consequences.
To the extent permitted by law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available”. We do not warrant that the Service will be available at all times, error‑free, fully secure or fit for a particular purpose.
To the extent permitted by law, we are liable to you only for damages caused by intent or gross negligence. In the event of slight negligence in breaching material contractual obligations, our liability is limited to the typical, foreseeable damage.
Our total liability arising out of or in connection with the Service is – to the extent permitted by law – limited to the amount you have paid for the Service in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. If you have paid nothing, our liability is limited to the minimum extent permitted by law.
Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability where such exclusion or limitation would be unlawful under applicable law, in particular in cases of intent, gross negligence, injury to life, body or health or any other mandatory statutory liability.
10. Governing law and dispute resolution
Unless mandatory law in your country of residence provides otherwise, these Terms and any disputes arising out of or in connection with the Service are governed by the laws of Curaçao, excluding its conflict‑of‑laws rules.
If you are a consumer, mandatory consumer protection laws of the country in which you have your habitual residence remain unaffected by this choice of law.
If you have any questions or complaints, you should contact us first so that we can try to resolve the matter informally.
We are willing to participate in voluntary alternative dispute resolution before a competent consumer arbitration or ADR body, where this is required by law, appropriate or reasonable in the individual case.
11. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time, in particular when we introduce new features, change our business model or where legal requirements make this necessary.
In the event of material changes, we will inform you in an appropriate manner, for example via the app, the website or by e‑mail, and indicate when the amended Terms will take effect.
If you continue to use the Service after the changes come into effect, this will be deemed your acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the changes, you must stop using the Service and may delete your account at any time.
