Effective date: 15 June 2026. Version: 2.0.

1. Acceptance of These Terms

1.1. These Terms and Conditions (the “Terms”) constitute a legally binding agreement between you (“you”, the “User”) and the Company and govern your access to and use of: (a) the Verbatica mobile application for iOS and Android (the “App”); (b) the Verbatica web platform available at verbatica.ai and its subdomains (the “Web Platform”); and (c) any related content, features and services (together, the “Service”).

1.2. By creating an account, accessing or using the Service, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy, which are incorporated into these Terms by reference. If you do not agree, you must not use the Service.

1.3. Where you accept these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity, and “you” refers to that entity.

2. Eligibility and Minors

2.1. You may use the Service only if you are at least 18 years old, or you are at least 13 years old and your parent or legal guardian has reviewed and accepted these Terms on your behalf and supervises your use of the Service.

2.2. The Service is not directed at, and may not be used by, children under 13 years of age. We may request evidence of age or parental consent and may suspend or delete accounts where such evidence is not provided.

3. The Service

3.1. Verbatica is an AI-assisted language-learning service that provides, among other things: structured lessons and courses; speaking, writing, vocabulary, listening and grammar exercises; placement and progress tests; an AI conversation partner (chat); speech recognition and text-to-speech features; and progress tracking.

3.2. The Service is provided for personal, non-commercial educational purposes. The Service does not award state-recognised diplomas or officially certified language qualifications unless expressly stated otherwise.

3.3. We may modify, add or remove features of the Service at any time, including for technical, security, legal or business reasons. Where a change materially reduces the core functionality of a paid subscription, Section 6.7 applies.

4. Account Registration and Security

4.1. To use most features of the Service you must create an account. Registration may be carried out using an e-mail address or through third-party sign-in services (such as Sign in with Apple or Google). You agree to provide accurate, current and complete information and to keep it up to date.

4.2. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your credentials and for all activities under your account.

4.3. You must notify us without undue delay at support@verbatica.ai of any unauthorised use of your account or any other breach of security.

4.4. One account is intended for one User. You may not sell, transfer or share your account, or use another person’s account without permission.

5. AI Features and Educational Content

5.1. Parts of the Service (including the AI conversation partner, automated feedback, generated exercises and pronunciation assessment) are produced by artificial-intelligence models, including models provided by third-party AI providers.

5.2. AI-generated output is produced automatically and may be inaccurate, incomplete or inappropriate despite our safeguards. AI output is provided for learning purposes only and does not constitute professional, legal, medical, financial or other advice. You should not rely on AI output as a sole source of factual information.

5.3. We do not guarantee any particular learning outcome, level of language proficiency or examination result.

6. Subscriptions, Trials and Payments

6.1. The App is provided free of charge: it may be downloaded and used by all registered Users without payment. Access to the extended functionality of the Web Platform requires a paid subscription (“Subscription”). Current Subscription plans, prices and billing periods are displayed on the Web Platform before purchase.

6.2. Where Subscriptions are purchased. Subscriptions are purchased exclusively on the Web Platform and are processed by our payment service providers; we do not store full payment card numbers. The App does not offer in-app purchases or paid subscriptions. Apple and Google are not a party to, and bear no responsibility for, any purchase made on the Web Platform.

6.3. Auto-renewal. Unless stated otherwise at the point of purchase, Subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period at the then-current price, until cancelled. You may cancel at any time with effect from the end of the current billing period in your account settings on the Web Platform or by contacting support@verbatica.ai.

6.4. Free trials. Where a free trial is offered, the Subscription fee will be charged automatically when the trial ends unless you cancel before the end of the trial. Trial terms are displayed at sign-up. We may limit trials to one per User.

6.5. Prices may include or exclude applicable taxes (including UAE VAT) as indicated at checkout. You are responsible for any taxes or charges imposed by your bank or payment provider, including currency-conversion fees.

6.6. We may change Subscription prices. Price changes do not affect the current paid billing period and will apply from the next renewal, with prior notice given in the App, on the Web Platform or by e-mail. If you do not agree with a price change, you may cancel before it takes effect.

6.7. Refunds. Except where required by mandatory applicable law (including UAE consumer-protection legislation) or expressly stated in these Terms, payments are non-refundable and no credit is given for partially used billing periods. If we permanently discontinue the Service or materially remove core paid functionality during your paid period, you will be entitled to a pro-rated refund of the unused part of your Subscription.

7. Licence and Acceptable Use
