Terms & Conditions

Last updated: April 28, 2026

These Terms and Conditions ("Terms") form a binding agreement between you and Bedtime Stories, a sole proprietorship established in the Netherlands, with its principal place of business in the Netherlands ("Bedtime Stories," "we," "us," or "our").

By creating an account, purchasing or redeeming credits, or otherwise accessing or using Bedtime Stories at https://www.bedtime-stories.fun/ (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

If you accept these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity; in that case, "you" means that entity.

1. The Service

Bedtime Stories provides tools to create, manage, and deliver AI-generated bedtime stories (text and/or audio) based on your prompts, selections, and settings. We may update, improve, or modify features from time to time.

We may use third-party providers to deliver parts of the Service (e.g., authentication, hosting, text-to-speech, payment processing). Additional terms from those providers may apply.

2. Eligibility & Accounts

Eligibility

The Service is intended for users who can lawfully form a binding contract under the law of their country of residence. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction (typically 18, but 16 under Dutch law for everyday digital services), you may only use the Service through a parent or legal guardian who accepts these Terms on your behalf and takes responsibility for the account.

The Service is not directed to children under 13 and we do not knowingly collect personal information from them. Parents and guardians use the Service to create age-appropriate content for their children — see our Privacy Policy for how we handle children's information.

Registration

You may register with email/password or supported SSO (e.g., Google). You agree to provide accurate information and keep it updated.

Security

You are responsible for all activity on your account and for maintaining the confidentiality of your login credentials. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.

Verification

We may require email verification or additional checks before enabling your account.

3. Acceptance of Terms and Updates

How You Accept These Terms

By clicking "Sign Up," "Create Account," "Continue," or similar, or by using the Service, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy.

Changes to Terms

We may update these Terms. If we make material changes, we will provide notice (e.g., by posting in-app, on our site, or via email). Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.

4. Credits, Plans, Trials, and Payments

Credits

Certain features require purchasing or redeeming credits. Credits have no cash value, are non-transferable, and—except where required by law—are non-refundable.

Pricing and Taxes

Prices are shown at checkout and may change prospectively. You are responsible for all applicable taxes.

Payment Processing

Payments are handled by our third-party processor (e.g., Stripe). By paying, you agree to their terms. We do not store your full payment details.

Failed Payments and Chargebacks

If a payment fails or is charged back, we may suspend or terminate your access and deduct credits, and you remain responsible for amounts owed.

Free Trials and Promotions

Any free trials or promotions are subject to the terms disclosed at signup and may be modified or discontinued at any time.

EU Consumer Right of Withdrawal

If you reside in the European Union, the United Kingdom, or another jurisdiction with similar consumer protections, you normally have a 14-day right of withdrawal for digital purchases. Because credits unlock immediate access to digital content (a story begins generating as soon as you spend a credit), you expressly consent at checkout to immediate performance and acknowledge that the right of withdrawal is lost once a credit has been used in accordance with Article 16(m) of EU Directive 2011/83/EU.

As a goodwill measure, unused credits may be refunded within 14 days of purchase. Email [email protected] with your order reference; refunds are issued to the original payment method.

5. Acceptable Use and Prohibited Conduct

You agree to use the Service only for its intended, lawful purposes. You must not:

  • Use the Service to generate, upload, or distribute content that is illegal; infringes intellectual property or privacy rights; is deceptive or fraudulent; or violates export controls or sanctions.
  • Generate or attempt to generate sexual content involving minors or any exploitation of children; explicit sexual content; graphic violence; or hate/extremist content.
  • Harass, threaten, or dox others; promote self-harm; or facilitate harmful activities.
  • Reverse engineer, scrape, or misuse APIs; attempt to bypass security or rate limits.
  • Abuse free tiers, referral programs, or credits; create multiple accounts to evade restrictions.
  • Interfere with the Service's operation, or use it to deliver malware, spam, or unauthorized automated requests.
  • Upload voice recordings of any person other than yourself without their explicit, informed consent. You must be the speaker in any voice recording you submit.
  • Use custom voice cloning features for impersonation, fraud, deepfakes, or to create misleading content that falsely represents another person's voice or identity.

We may investigate and enforce violations, including by suspending or terminating accounts, forfeiting credits, removing content, and reporting unlawful activity to authorities and cooperating with law enforcement.

6. User Inputs and Generated Content

Your Inputs

You retain ownership of the prompts, settings, and materials you submit ("Inputs"). You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use your Inputs to provide and improve the Service (including safety, quality, and model evaluation), subject to our Privacy Policy and applicable law.

Outputs

Subject to your compliance with these Terms and third-party rights, we grant you a licenseto use, reproduce, and distribute the AI-generated text/audio you receive from the Service ("Outputs") for your permitted purposes. We do not guarantee the Outputs will be unique or free of third-party rights.

No Sensitive or Third-Party Data

You are responsible for having all rights and consents to any data you submit. Do not submit personal data of others without lawful basis.

Moderation

We may review, refuse, or remove content that we reasonably believe violates these Terms or the law.

Voice Recording & AI Voice Cloning

The Service offers an optional custom voice feature that uses AI voice cloning technology provided by a specialized third-party AI provider. By recording and submitting a voice sample, you:

  • Confirm ownership: You confirm that the voice recording is your own voice and that you have the legal right to submit it for processing.
  • Consent to processing: You explicitly consent to your voice being processed by our AI voice technology partner to create an AI voice clone for use within the Service.
  • Understand the technology: You acknowledge that AI voice cloning creates a synthetic reproduction of your voice that is used to generate story narration. The output is AI-generated audio, not a recording of your actual voice.
  • Accept limitations: AI-generated voice output may not perfectly replicate your voice and may vary in quality. We do not guarantee the accuracy of voice reproduction.

You may withdraw your consent at any time by deleting your custom voice from your dashboard. See our Privacy Policy for details on how voice data is handled.

AI-Generated Content Labelling

Story text, narration audio, and cover art produced by the Service are generated by artificial intelligence. Outputs are labelled as AI-generated within the Service. If you re-share an Output outside the Service, you must continue to identify it as AI-generated where required by law (for example, Article 50 of Regulation (EU) 2024/1689 — the EU AI Act). Custom voices created from your own recording are synthetic reproductions and must not be used to impersonate any other person, to create misleading or deceptive content, or to circumvent any obligation to disclose synthetic media.

7. Intellectual Property and Reservation of Rights

The Service, including all software, interfaces, design, templates, and underlying models, is owned by us and our licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. Except for the limited rights expressly granted in these Terms, we reserve all rights.

You must not copy, modify, create derivative works, translate, lease, sublicense, or otherwise exploit the Service except as permitted here.

8. Third-Party Services

The Service may integrate third-party services (e.g., authentication, TTS, hosting, analytics, payment). We are not responsible for third-party services and disclaim liability for their acts or omissions. Your use of them is governed by their terms and privacy policies.

9. Service Availability and Support

We aim for reliable availability but do not guarantee uninterrupted operation. We may suspend or limit the Service for maintenance, security, or legal reasons. Feature roadmaps are subject to change.

Standard support is provided via email at [email protected].

10. Term, Suspension, and Termination

Your Term

These Terms apply from your first use of the Service and continue until terminated as described below.

Our Rights

We may suspend or terminate your access immediately with or without notice if you violate these Terms, if required by law, or for security/operational reasons. We may also terminate for convenience with reasonable notice where feasible.

Effect of Termination

Upon termination, your right to use the Service ends, and we may delete or restrict access to your data consistent with our Privacy Policy. If your account is terminated for breach, you are not entitled to any refund and you forfeit any remaining credits, except where prohibited by law.

Survival

Sections that by their nature should survive (e.g., ownership, acceptable use, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnity, governing law) will survive termination.

11. Warranties and Disclaimers

AI Limitations

Outputs may be inaccurate, incomplete, offensive, or otherwise unsuitable. You are solely responsible for evaluating and using any Outputs. The Service does not provide medical, legal, financial, or other professional advice.

Parent and Guardian Responsibility

The Service is operated by adults for adults. As the parent or legal guardian, you are solely responsible for:

  • Previewing any story, audio, or image Output before sharing it with a child.
  • Supervisingyour child's interaction with the Service and any Outputs.
  • Deciding what character names, themes, locations, and other inputs are age-appropriate for your child.
  • Reporting any Output you find unsuitable to [email protected] so we can investigate and remove it where appropriate.

Because Outputs are generated by AI on demand, we cannot preview them in advance and we make no representation that any specific Output will be suitable for your particular child. You assume the risk of relying on any Output without first reviewing it.

Service Provided "As-Is"

The Service and Outputs are provided "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE" without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

No Guarantee of Uniqueness

We do not warrant that Outputs are unique or will not be generated for others from similar inputs.

Some jurisdictions do not allow disclaimers of certain warranties; to that extent, the above may not apply.

12. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages; loss of profits, revenues, goodwill, or data; or business interruption, arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms, even if advised of the possibility.

Our total liability for any claim arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms will not exceed the greater of (a) the amounts you paid to us for the Service in the three (3) months before the event giving rise to liability, or (b) €100.

Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; to that extent, the above may not apply.

13. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Bedtime Stories and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from or related to: (a) your Inputs or your use of Outputs; (b) your breach of these Terms or violation of law; or (c) any dispute between you and a third party.

14. Privacy and Data Protection

Your use of the Service is subject to our Privacy Policy, which explains how we collect, use, and share personal data and your rights under applicable data protection laws (including GDPR, where applicable).

15. Notices and Reporting Abuse

General Contact

General questions: [email protected]

Reporting Abuse

Report suspected violations or illegal content to [email protected]. We may report unlawful activity to authorities and cooperate with law enforcement.

Notice and Action — Illegal Content (EU DSA)

If you are in the European Union and believe content available on the Service is illegal under EU or national law, you can submit a notice under Article 16 of Regulation (EU) 2022/2065 (the Digital Services Act) by emailing [email protected] with:

  • The exact location of the content (URL or share token).
  • A clear explanation of why you believe the content is illegal, including the specific law you consider breached.
  • Your name and contact email (you may submit anonymously, but we may not be able to follow up or notify you of the outcome).
  • A good-faith statement that the information in your notice is accurate and complete.

We review every notice without undue delay, decide whether to remove or restrict access to the content, and notify both you and the affected user of our decision and reasoning. The affected user may dispute our decision by replying to our notification email. We do not currently use automated decision-making for notice handling.

16. Governing Law, Venue, and Dispute Resolution

Law and Forum

These Terms are governed by the laws of The Netherlands (without regard to conflict-of-laws rules). You and we agree to the exclusive jurisdiction and venue of the courts located in Amsterdam, The Netherlands.

Injunctive Relief

Nothing prevents either party from seeking injunctive or other equitable relief for threatened or actual infringement, misappropriation, or breach of confidentiality.

17. Miscellaneous

Entire Agreement

These Terms and any policies referenced herein constitute the entire agreement between you and us and supersede prior agreements relating to the Service.

Severability

If any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions remain in full force.

No Waiver

Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver.

Assignment

You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.

Force Majeure

We are not liable for delays or failures due to events beyond our reasonable control, including upstream AI provider outages, hosting incidents, network or DNS failures, or acts of governments and regulators.

Non-Waivable Consumer Rights

Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes any right or remedy you have under mandatory consumer-protection law in your country of residence (for example, the EU Consumer Rights Directive 2011/83/EU, the EU Sale of Goods Directive 2019/771, the UK Consumer Rights Act 2015, or equivalent national law). Where any provision of these Terms is unenforceable against a consumer, that provision applies only to the maximum extent permitted by law.

18. Platform-Specific Terms (SSO and Mobile Apps)

Single Sign-On

When you use Google, Apple, or any other SSO provider to sign in, you also agree to that provider's terms and privacy policy. We do not control how those providers operate and disclaim liability for their acts and omissions.

Apple App Store

If you obtain or use the Service through the Apple App Store, the following additional terms apply and prevail over any conflicting term in these Terms:

  • These Terms are between you and us only, not with Apple. Apple is not a party to these Terms.
  • The licence granted to you for the iOS app is limited to a non-transferable licence to use the app on any Apple-branded product that you own or control, in accordance with the Apple Media Services Terms and the Apple App Store Usage Rules.
  • Apple is solely responsiblefor nothing in these Terms — Apple has no obligation to provide any maintenance or support for the Service, and no warranty or refund obligation toward you. Any product warranty claim is our responsibility, not Apple's.
  • We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing claims relating to the Service, including product-liability claims, claims that the Service fails to conform to applicable legal requirements, and claims under consumer-protection or similar legislation.
  • We, not Apple, are responsible for investigating and resolving any third-party claim that the Service or your use of it infringes that third party's intellectual-property rights.
  • You confirm that you are not located in a country subject to a US Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not on any US Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
  • Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms; upon your acceptance, Apple has the right to enforce these Terms against you as a third-party beneficiary.

Google Play

If you obtain or use the Service through Google Play, you also agree to the Google Play Terms of Service. Google is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the Service. We are responsible for the Service and for any claims relating to it.

Reporting AI-Generated Content

In line with the Apple App Store Review Guidelines and the Google Play Generative-AI policy, our backend applies prompt-safety filtering (Llama Guard via Helicone) and audio/image quality controls to every Output before it reaches you. If any AI-generated Output is offensive, unsafe, or otherwise inappropriate, you can report it by emailing [email protected]. We review every report, suspend accounts that misuse the Service to generate harmful content, and remove offending Outputs without undue delay.

Account and Data Deletion

You can delete your account, your stories, and any custom voice at any time from your dashboard. Deletion is available both in-app and on the web in compliance with Apple Guideline 5.1.1(v) and the Google Play account-deletion requirement. Deletion removes your personal data from active systems within 30 days; encrypted backups roll off within a further 30 days.
