1. INTRODUCTION AND ACCEPTANCE OF TERMS
1.1. The Agreement: This Terms of Service (the "Agreement") constitutes a legally binding contract between you ("you," "your," or "user") and SVLink App ("we," "us," or "our"). This Agreement governs your access to and use of our mobile application, Photo & Live Voice Translator (the "App"), and all related services (collectively, the "Services").
1.2. Binding Agreement: By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the App, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by all terms of this Agreement. If you do not agree with these terms, you are not permitted to use the Services and must immediately uninstall the App.
1.3. Incorporated Privacy Policy: Your use of the Services is also governed by our Privacy Policy. The applicable Privacy Policy is made available on our website and within the App and is incorporated into this Agreement by reference. The Privacy Policy provides a detailed explanation of our data practices, including how your typed text, voice recordings, camera images and PDF documents are handled, the permissions the App requests, and the third-party providers we use to translate your content and to fund the Services.
1.4. Eligibility: You must be at least 13 years old, or at least 16 years old if you are resident in the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, or such other minimum age as required by the law of your country of residence, to use the Services. By using the Services you represent that you meet this requirement. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you may only use the Services with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian.
2. THE SERVICES
Our App provides machine translation tools designed to help you understand and communicate across supported languages. Currently, the application provides core functionalities including but not limited to Text Translation from typed input, Voice Input for speaking text directly into the translation screen, Voice Conversation for two speakers of different languages with automatic read-aloud of each turn, a Camera Translator covering live camera translation, photo capture and image selection from your device gallery, PDF File Translation with progress tracking, preview, save and share, automatic source language detection, and read-aloud of translated text. Certain features require internet access and device permissions such as microphone or camera access in order to function. The availability of individual languages depends on the feature you are using and on the capabilities of your device. We reserve the right to modify, update, improve, suspend, or discontinue certain features of the Services at our sole discretion.
3. TRANSLATION OUTPUT AND LIMITS ON RELIANCE
3.1. Nature of the Output: All translations, transcriptions, recognised text and read-aloud audio produced through the Services (the "Output") are generated automatically by machine translation and speech technology. No human translator reviews the Output before it is shown to you.
3.2. No Warranty of Accuracy: The Output may be inaccurate, incomplete, ambiguous, or unsuitable for the purpose you have in mind. Accuracy varies significantly between language pairs, between subject matters, and with the quality of the input, including background noise in voice input and image quality in camera translation. Formatting, layout and non-text elements of a PDF document may not be preserved.
3.3. Not a Certified Translation: The Output is not a certified, sworn, notarised or otherwise officially recognised translation, and must not be submitted as one to any court, government authority, immigration or visa authority, educational institution, or other body that requires a certified translation.
3.4. No Professional Reliance: The Output is not a substitute for professional advice or for a qualified human translator. You should not rely on the Output when it concerns medical treatment or medication, legal rights or obligations, contracts, financial or investment decisions, immigration status, safety instructions, or any other matter where an error could cause harm or loss. In those situations you should engage a qualified professional.
3.5. Your Decisions: You remain solely responsible for reviewing the Output before you act on it, share it, publish it, or pass it to a third party, and for any decision you make or action you take or do not take in connection with the Output.
4. YOUR CONTENT
4.1. Definitions: "Input Content" means the text you type, the audio you record, the images you capture or select, and the PDF documents you choose to translate through the App. "Output Content" means the translations, transcriptions and translated documents generated from your Input Content. Input Content and Output Content are together your "User Content."
4.2. Ownership: You retain all ownership rights you hold in your Input Content. As between you and us, you also own the Output Content generated by you through the Services, subject to the rights of any third party in the underlying material and to any limitation imposed by applicable law.
4.3. Limited License to Us: In order to operate the Services, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, reproduce, transmit and process your User Content strictly for the sole and express purpose of producing and delivering the requested translation to your device, including transmission to the third-party translation provider identified in our Privacy Policy. This license ends when the translation has been delivered. We do not use your User Content to train any model, and we do not use it for advertising or for any other purpose.
4.4. Your Responsibility: You are solely responsible for your User Content. You represent and warrant that:
4.4.1. You own the Input Content or have all necessary rights, licenses, permissions and lawful bases to submit it for translation through the App.
4.4.2. Your Input Content does not and will not infringe upon, misappropriate, or violate any third party's rights, including copyright, trademark, trade secret, confidentiality or privacy rights.
4.4.3. Where your Input Content contains personal data relating to another person, you have a lawful basis to disclose that data to a processor for the purpose of translation.
4.5. Content You Should Not Submit: You should not submit material that you are not permitted to disclose to a third-party processor, or sensitive material such as identity documents, health records or financial account details, unless you accept that it will be processed as described in Section 4 of our Privacy Policy.
5. PRICE, ADVERTISING AND IN-APP PURCHASES
