Legal
Terms of Service
Last updated: June 11, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Jasper McEligott ("FlowLearn", "we", "us", "our"), an individual sole developer who builds and operates the FlowLearn iOS app and the flowearn.app website (together, the "Service"). FlowLearn is not a company; it is operated by Jasper McEligott as an individual.
1. Agreement to these Terms
By downloading, installing, accessing, or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated here by reference. If you are using the Service on behalf of someone else (for example, a child you are responsible for), you confirm that you have the authority to accept these Terms on their behalf and that you accept them for both of you.
Please read these Terms carefully. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not download, access, or use the Service. Your continued use of the Service confirms your ongoing acceptance of these Terms as they may be updated from time to time.
2. Eligibility and age requirements
To use the Service, you must be able to form a legally binding contract with us and must not be barred from doing so under any applicable law. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you meet the requirements of this section.
- You must be at least 13 years old to use the Service.
- If you are under the age of digital consent in your country, state, or province (for example, 16 in parts of the EU), you may only use the Service with the involvement, consent, and supervision of a parent or legal guardian.
- If you are under 18 (or the age of majority where you live), you may only use the Service with the consent of, and under the supervision of, a parent or legal guardian who agrees to be bound by these Terms on your behalf.
We do not knowingly allow people who do not meet these requirements to use the Service. If we learn that someone ineligible is using the Service, we may suspend or terminate their access.
3. The Service
FlowLearn is a learning app that helps you study and remember things you care about. Depending on the version and features available to you, the Service may let you:
- Generate lessons on topics you choose, built automatically with the help of AI, and study lessons from a curated library.
- Practice and reinforce what you learn through recall exercises and quizzes.
- Build and maintain streaks, earn XP, and take part in leagues and other motivational features.
- Explore your progress through a knowledge map and related visualizations.
- Connect with friends, send and accept invites, and share your profile.
The Service, including its features, content, and availability, may change, expand, or be reduced over time. Some features may be free while others require a paid subscription (see Section 5). We do not guarantee that any particular feature, topic, lesson, or piece of content will always be available.
4. Your account and responsibilities
The Service relies on your device and your iCloud account to store and sync your profile, lessons, and progress. You do not create a separate password-based account with us; access is tied to your device and your Apple ID / iCloud. You are responsible for keeping your device and your Apple ID secure.
You agree that:
- You will provide accurate information where the Service asks for it, and keep it up to date.
- Any display name, avatar, handle, prompts, topics, or other content you choose or submit will be respectful, lawful, and not misleading, offensive, infringing, or harmful.
- You are responsible for all activity that takes place through your device and your use of the Service.
- You will promptly take reasonable steps to secure your device and account if you believe there has been unauthorized access or a loss of security.
You are solely responsible for maintaining backups of any content you value. While the Service syncs through iCloud, we are not responsible for any loss of data caused by your device, your iCloud account, or third-party services.
5. Subscriptions, billing, and cancellation
The Service offers an optional paid subscription, "FlowLearn Plus", which unlocks additional features.
- Sold through Apple. FlowLearn Plus subscriptions are sold and processed through the Apple App Store and are billed to the Apple ID you use on your device. We do not receive or store your payment card details.
- Subscription management powered by a third party. Our subscription entitlements are managed with the help of a third-party provider, Adapty. We receive your subscription status (for example, whether you have an active subscription), not your underlying payment information.
- Auto-renewal. Subscriptions renew automatically for the same period and at the then-current price unless you cancel. To avoid being charged for the next period, you must cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Your Apple ID is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the end of the current period.
- Managing and cancelling. You can manage, change, or cancel your subscription at any time in your Apple ID / App Store account settings on your device. Deleting the app does not cancel your subscription.
- Free trials and introductory offers. If a free trial or introductory offer is provided, any unused portion is forfeited when you purchase a subscription, where applicable. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, the subscription will begin and your Apple ID will be charged.
- Price changes. Prices may change. Where Apple's rules and applicable law require, you will be notified and, where required, asked to consent before a price increase takes effect.
- Refunds. Except where required by law, payments are non-refundable, and partial periods are not refunded. Because purchases are made through the Apple App Store, refund requests are handled by Apple in accordance with Apple's policies; we generally cannot issue refunds directly.
EU / UK statutory withdrawal right
If you are a consumer in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction that grants a statutory right of withdrawal, you may have the right to cancel a purchase within a set period (for example, 14 days) without giving a reason. However, by purchasing and starting to use digital content or a digital subscription immediately, you may be asked to acknowledge that you expressly request immediate performance and that you therefore lose your right of withdrawal once performance has begun. Nothing in these Terms limits any non-waivable statutory rights you have as a consumer. Where the purchase was made through the Apple App Store, you may also need to direct withdrawal and refund requests to Apple.
6. AI-generated content
Some lessons, explanations, answers, and other content in the Service are generated automatically using artificial intelligence, including third-party AI providers.
- AI can be wrong. AI-generated content may be inaccurate, incomplete, outdated, or misleading, and may occasionally produce content that is offensive or inappropriate despite our efforts.
- Educational aid only. The Service is an educational aid. It is not a substitute for professional advice and does not constitute professional, medical, legal, financial, or other regulated advice.
- Verify important information. You should independently verify any important information before relying on it, and consult a qualified professional where appropriate.
- No guarantee of accuracy. We do not warrant or guarantee the accuracy, completeness, reliability, or suitability of any AI-generated content, and you use it at your own risk.
7. Acceptable use and prohibited conduct
You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes and in line with these Terms. You will not, and will not attempt to, and will not help or permit anyone else to:
- Abuse, harass, threaten, defame, or harm others, or use the Service to create or share unlawful, infringing, harmful, hateful, or otherwise objectionable content.
- Infringe or violate the intellectual property, privacy, publicity, or other rights of any person or entity.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code, models, or underlying structure of the Service, except to the limited extent this restriction is prohibited by applicable law.
- Scrape, crawl, harvest, or use automated means (bots, scripts, or otherwise) to access, query, or extract data from the Service, except as expressly permitted by us.
- Interfere with, disrupt, overload, or impair the Service, its servers, or its networks, including by sending excessive requests.
- Circumvent, disable, or interfere with any security, authentication, rate-limiting, quota, or integrity mechanism of the Service, including Apple App Attest, App Store protections, or any usage limits or quotas we apply.
- Use the Service to develop a competing product or model, or to train machine-learning systems using the Service's outputs in violation of these Terms or third-party terms.
- Access the Service through unauthorized means, share or resell access, or impersonate any person or misrepresent your affiliation.
- Use the Service in violation of any applicable law, regulation, or third-party terms.
We may apply rate limits, quotas, and other reasonable usage controls, and we may suspend or limit access where we reasonably believe these rules are being broken.
8. Your content and license
You retain ownership of the content you create or submit through the Service, including the topics, prompts, display name, and lessons you generate or save for your own use ("Your Content").
To operate the Service, you grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, copy, transmit, process, and display Your Content solely for the purpose of providing, maintaining, securing, and improving the Service for you — for example, to generate a lesson from a prompt you provide, to sync your progress through iCloud, and to display your content back to you. This license also extends, to the limited extent necessary, to the third-party providers that help us deliver the Service (see Section 10). It ends when you delete the relevant content or your data, except for content already shared with others, content retained in routine backups for a limited time, or where we must retain it to comply with law.
You are solely responsible for Your Content and represent that you have the rights necessary to submit it and to grant the license above, and that Your Content does not violate these Terms or any law or third-party right.
9. Intellectual property
The Service, including the FlowLearn name, logo, branding, design, software, text, graphics, curated lessons, and other original content we provide (excluding Your Content and third-party content), is owned by Jasper McEligott or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property and other laws.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to use the Service for your own personal, non-commercial use. No rights are granted to you except as expressly set out in these Terms. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, or create derivative works from any part of the Service or our content except as permitted by law or with our prior written consent.
10. Third-party services
The Service relies on third-party services to function, including:
- Apple — the App Store, in-app purchases, iCloud / CloudKit syncing, and App Attest device integrity.
- Adapty — subscription management and entitlement processing.
- Cloudflare — our server-side processing runs on a Cloudflare Worker.
- AI providers — third-party AI services that power lesson and chat generation.
Your use of these services may be subject to their own terms and privacy policies. We do not control these third parties and are not responsible for their services, content, availability, or acts or omissions. Your relationship with them is governed by their terms, and any disputes regarding their services should be directed to them.
For transparency: AI lesson and chat generation runs server-side on a Cloudflare Worker that is protected by Apple App Attest and subject to rate limits and quotas, and which calls third-party AI providers. Your data syncs through your private iCloud (Apple CloudKit) account.
11. Disclaimers
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Service and all content are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise. We specifically disclaim all implied warranties, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement, and any warranties arising from course of dealing or usage of trade.
We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, secure, error-free, or free of harmful components, that defects will be corrected, or that any content (including AI-generated content) will be accurate, complete, or reliable. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of the above exclusions may not apply to you.
12. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law:
- In no event will Jasper McEligott (FlowLearn) be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or other intangible losses, arising out of or related to your use of, or inability to use, the Service, even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.
- Our total aggregate liability for all claims arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms will not exceed the greater of (a) the total amount you paid us (or paid through the App Store for the Service) in the twelve (12) months before the event giving rise to the liability, or (b) the minimum amount permitted by applicable law.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages, so some of the above limitations may not apply to you. Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law.
13. Indemnification
To the extent permitted by applicable law, you agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Jasper McEligott (FlowLearn) from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses, including reasonable legal fees, arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your use or misuse of the Service; (b) Your Content; (c) your violation of these Terms; or (d) your violation of any law or the rights of any third party. We reserve the right to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification by you, and you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claims.
14. Termination
You may stop using the Service at any time, and you may delete your data and your account through the in-app settings.
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Service, in whole or in part, at any time, with or without notice, if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, if required to do so by law, or to protect the Service, other users, or third parties.
Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including those on intellectual property, Your Content license to the extent necessary, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, governing law, and these Terms generally — will survive. Subscriptions are governed by Apple's policies; terminating your use of the Service does not by itself entitle you to a refund.
15. Changes to the Service and to these Terms
We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service or any part of it at any time, with or without notice, to the extent permitted by law.
We may also update these Terms from time to time. When we make changes, we will revise the "Last updated" date at the top of these Terms. If the changes are material, we will take reasonable steps to notify you, such as providing an in-app notice where appropriate. Changes take effect when posted unless stated otherwise. Your continued use of the Service after changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using the Service.
16. Governing law and dispute resolution
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Service are governed by the laws of the United States and, to the extent applicable, the laws of the state in which the operator resides, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles, and excluding any rules that would require the application of the law of another jurisdiction.
- Informal resolution first. Before bringing any formal claim, you agree to first contact us at [email protected] and try in good faith to resolve the dispute informally. Many concerns can be resolved this way.
- Venue / arbitration. If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, it will be brought exclusively in, and you and we consent to the personal jurisdiction of, the state and federal courts located in Virginia (or resolved by binding arbitration seated in Virginia where the parties agree or the law requires), except where applicable law gives you the right to bring a claim in another forum.
- Class-action waiver. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you and we agree that disputes will be resolved on an individual basis only, and that neither you nor we will bring or participate in a class, collective, consolidated, or representative action. This waiver does not apply where it is prohibited by applicable law, and it does not deprive you of any non-waivable statutory rights.
Nothing in this section limits any mandatory consumer-protection rights you have under the law of your country of residence.
17. Apple App Store EULA terms
The following terms apply because the app is distributed through the Apple App Store. In the event of any conflict between this section and the rest of these Terms with respect to your use of the app obtained through the App Store, this section controls for that purpose.
- This agreement is with FlowLearn, not Apple. These Terms are between you and Jasper McEligott (FlowLearn) only, and not with Apple Inc. ("Apple"). Apple is not responsible for the app or its content.
- Licensed Application. Your license to use the app is the Apple-standard "Licensed Application" license, a non-transferable license to use the app on any Apple-branded device that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the Apple Media Services / App Store Terms of Service, except that the app may be accessed and used by other accounts associated with you via Family Sharing or volume purchasing where applicable.
- Maintenance and support. FlowLearn, not Apple, is solely responsible for providing any maintenance and support services for the app. Apple has no obligation whatsoever to furnish any maintenance and support services.
- Warranty. FlowLearn, not Apple, is responsible for any product warranties, whether express or implied by law, to the extent not effectively disclaimed. In the event of any failure of the app to conform to any applicable warranty, you may notify Apple, and Apple will refund the purchase price (if any) you paid for the app; to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Apple has no other warranty obligation whatsoever with respect to the app, and any other claims, losses, liabilities, damages, costs, or expenses attributable to any failure to conform to any warranty are FlowLearn's responsibility.
- Product claims. FlowLearn, not Apple, is responsible for addressing any claims by you or any third party relating to the app or your possession and/or use of the app, including: (a) product liability claims; (b) any claim that the app fails to conform to any applicable legal or regulatory requirement; and (c) claims arising under consumer protection, privacy, or similar legislation.
- Intellectual property claims. In the event of any third-party claim that the app or your possession and use of the app infringes that third party's intellectual property rights, FlowLearn, not Apple, is solely responsible for the investigation, defense, settlement, and discharge of any such claim, to the extent required by these Terms.
- Legal compliance. You represent and warrant that you are not located in a country that is subject to a U.S. Government embargo, or that has been designated by the U.S. Government as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
- Third-party beneficiary. You acknowledge and agree that Apple and Apple's subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms, and that upon your acceptance of these Terms, Apple will have the right (and will be deemed to have accepted the right) to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.
