Version: 1.11 (effective 2026-11-04)
These Terms of Service ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and Perlicom Systems Ltd ("we", "us"), a company incorporated in Ireland, governing your use of the StoryTimeZZZ service, its website at storytime.perlicom.com and our official mobile applications (together, the "Service"). By using the Service you agree to these Terms.
StoryTimeZZZ writes and illustrates short bedtime stories for children. You answer a few questions, choose a length, and spend tokens to have a story written and saved to your family's shelf.
Stories are written, illustrated and (optionally) read aloud with the help of AI services, as described in the Privacy Policy. The names on your child and family cards are replaced by placeholders before anything is sent to the writing and picture services.
Usage counts. Using StoryTimeZZZ includes sending us daily counts of which of its screens and features are used, linked to your account. They contain no content, are needed to keep the app working and improve it, and cannot be switched off; if you do not want them sent, do not use StoryTimeZZZ. See the Privacy Policy for what is counted and how long it is kept.

may not resell them or use them commercially.
In addition to the acceptable use rules below, do not attempt to bypass the age rules, the catalogue, the moderation, the token balance or the purchase verification, and do not use the Service to create content that is unsafe or unlawful for children.
StoryTimeZZZ is a story-making service for entertainment and bedtime. It is not a medical, therapeutic or educational device and makes no clinical or educational claim. Where a story reflects a child's needs, that is representation, not treatment or advice.
You own your content. "Your content" means the text, images, audio, video, recordings, files and other material that you create, upload, post, publish or share through StoryTimeZZZ. We do not claim ownership of your content, and nothing in these terms gives us ownership of your personal data.
The licence you give us. For content that you choose to publish through StoryTimeZZZ (for example by posting it publicly, making it available to other StoryTimeZZZ users or the public, or creating a public link that anyone can open), you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, transferable and sub-licensable licence to host, use, copy, reproduce, store, modify, adapt, translate, create derivative works from, publish, display, perform and distribute that content, in any media, including to market and promote StoryTimeZZZ and our other apps.
Private content and private communications are not covered. Content that you keep to yourself, including anything that StoryTimeZZZ only syncs between your own devices, and content that you send privately to particular people (for example messages, calls, meetings and their recordings, files sent to named recipients, or records you share with your own clients) are not covered by that licence. We only store, copy, encrypt and transmit that content as needed to provide StoryTimeZZZ to you and the people you send it to, and we never use it for marketing.
If you send us ideas, suggestions, feature requests or other feedback about our apps, you agree that we may use, adapt and commercialise it freely, without any obligation to you and without paying you. Feedback is voluntary and you do not have to give it.
StoryTimeZZZ, its software, design, text, graphics, logos, names, libraries and content supplied by us, and every update, improvement and derivative of them, are owned by Perlicom Systems Ltd or its licensors and are protected by copyright, database right, trade mark and other laws. We also own the material that StoryTimeZZZ's own engines, templates and libraries generate (its "outputs"), except your content and copies, scans, conversions or edits of your content, which remain yours. We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use StoryTimeZZZ, and to use its outputs for your own personal purposes, in line with these terms. Every right not expressly granted to you is reserved. You may not copy, sell, rent, sub-license or redistribute StoryTimeZZZ, or reverse engineer, decompile or modify it, except to the extent the law allows this regardless of these terms.
We may create information from the use of our apps that is anonymised (it no longer identifies you or anyone else and cannot reasonably be linked back to a person) or aggregated (combined with information about many users so that no individual can be identified). Anonymised and aggregated information is not personal data. Perlicom Systems Ltd owns it outright and may use, publish, license, commercialise and sell it for any purpose, including research, statistics, benchmarking, product development and commercial reports. We will not try to re-identify anyone from it, and we require anyone we give it to not to try either. We never create or sell datasets about children: no information about a child is used for anonymised or aggregated datasets that we share or sell.
Accepting these terms is not consent to personalised advertising, and you do not give that consent by using StoryTimeZZZ.
You must not, and must not help anyone else to:
StoryTimeZZZ relies on services run by other companies, such as Google Sign-In and the app store you installed it from. Their own terms and privacy policies apply to those services. If you installed StoryTimeZZZ from Google Play, the Apple App Store, the Amazon Appstore or the Samsung Galaxy Store, that store's terms (including, for the Apple App Store, Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement) also apply and stay in force alongside these terms. If these terms and the store's terms conflict on a matter that the store's terms govern, such as payment and refunds for purchases made through that store, the store's terms apply to that matter.
The prices, billing, renewal, cancellation, refund and VAT terms described in these terms and shown at checkout apply to purchases of StoryTimeZZZ. Nothing in this section reduces them, and nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights as a consumer, including your right to withdraw from a purchase within 14 days where it applies.
StoryTimeZZZ relies on services that other companies provide to us and charge us for, such as artificial-intelligence models, cloud computing, data storage and backups, hosting, app-store fees and payment processing, and their prices can change at any time. To keep StoryTimeZZZ running, we may change:
We make these changes for genuine reasons, such as a change in what our suppliers charge us, in the cost of providing and storing what you create, in taxes or store fees, or in exchange rates, or to add, improve or withdraw a feature. A new price or cost applies only from the time it takes effect: it never changes something you have already paid for and received, and tokens or credits already in your account stay there. StoryTimeZZZ shows the current price or cost before you confirm a purchase or spend tokens or credits.
If a change increases the price of a subscription, we or the app store will tell you in advance, as the store's rules require, and you can cancel before the new price applies. If a change increases what an existing feature costs, StoryTimeZZZ shows the new cost before you spend anything on that feature, and we will tell you in advance where practicable. If you do not accept a change, you can stop buying, cancel any subscription and stop using StoryTimeZZZ.
You can stop using StoryTimeZZZ at any time, and you can delete your account as described in the Privacy Policy.
We may suspend or end your access to StoryTimeZZZ or to any feature, or remove content, if we reasonably believe that you have broken these terms or the law, that your use creates a risk for us, other users or third parties, that this is needed to prevent fraud or abuse, or that the law or an authority requires it. Where reasonable we will tell you first and give you the reason, unless that would be unlawful or create a risk.
Running StoryTimeZZZ's servers, storage and backups costs money whether or not people use them. We may therefore withdraw StoryTimeZZZ, or any of its online features, and shut down the servers and services behind them, for any genuine reason, including because too few people use it, because it is no longer viable for us to run, or because a supplier we rely on withdraws or changes its service. If we do:
The sections on your content, feedback, our intellectual property, anonymised and aggregated information, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity and governing law continue to apply after these terms end.
To the fullest extent the law allows, StoryTimeZZZ is provided "as is" and "as available". We do not promise that it will always be available, uninterrupted, secure or error-free, that it will meet your particular needs, or that information it provides is complete or accurate. StoryTimeZZZ is not professional advice, and it is not designed to be relied on where its failure could lead to death, personal injury or serious damage to property or the environment. You are responsible for keeping your own copies of content that matters to you.
To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for any loss that was not reasonably foreseeable, for loss of data, profit, revenue, business, goodwill or opportunity, or for indirect or consequential loss, arising from StoryTimeZZZ or these terms. Our total liability to you for all claims connected with StoryTimeZZZ or these terms is limited to the greater of the amounts you paid us for StoryTimeZZZ in the 12 months before the claim and 100 euro.
Nothing in these terms excludes or limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation, or any other liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law. If you are a consumer, nothing in these terms affects your statutory rights, including under the Consumer Rights Act 2022 and the Sale of Goods and Supply of Services Act 1980 in Ireland, or the mandatory consumer law of the country where you live.
You agree to compensate us for losses, damages and reasonable costs (including reasonable legal costs) that we incur because of a claim by a third party arising from your content, your breach of these terms or your breach of the law, to the extent that the claim was caused by you. If you are a consumer, this applies only as far as the law allows.
We may change StoryTimeZZZ, for example to add, change or remove features, or to meet legal, security or store requirements. We may also update these terms. When a change materially affects you, we will tell you in advance, in the app, by e-mail or on the store listing, normally at least 30 days before it takes effect, unless a change is needed sooner for legal or security reasons. The effective date (and version, where shown) at the top of these terms identifies the current version. If you keep using StoryTimeZZZ after a change takes effect, the updated terms apply. If you do not agree to a change, you can stop using StoryTimeZZZ and delete your account, and you can cancel any subscription as described in these terms.
These terms are governed by the laws of Ireland, and the courts of Ireland have jurisdiction over any dispute arising from them or from StoryTimeZZZ. If you are a consumer living elsewhere in the EU, the EEA or the UK, you also keep the protection of the mandatory laws of your country and may bring proceedings in your own courts.
