These Terms of Use (“Terms”) govern the Anitalk iOS app, its Messages extension, and anitalk.app (together, the “Services”), provided by emonster Inc. (“emonster,” “we,” “us,” or “our”). By using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.
What Anitalk does
Anitalk lets you turn text, symbols, and emoji into animated creations, save recent or custom patterns, export animations, and share them through Messages or destinations available in Apple’s system share sheet. Anitalk does not require an account.
Eligibility and supervision
You must be legally permitted to use the Services where you live. If you are not old enough to agree to these Terms yourself, use Anitalk only with permission and supervision from a parent or legal guardian. The App Store age rating describes content suitability and does not replace applicable rules about contractual capacity or parental consent.
Your creations and sharing
You retain the rights you have in the text and other content you create. Using Anitalk does not transfer ownership of your creations to emonster. You are responsible for what you create, whether you have the right to use it, the recipients and services you select, and the consequences of sharing it.
After a creation is shared, the recipient and destination service may store, copy, forward, or otherwise process it under their own terms. emonster cannot control a recipient or third-party destination after you choose to share.
Acceptable use
You may use Anitalk only for lawful purposes. You may not use the Services to harass, threaten, exploit, deceive, or harm another person; violate intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or other rights; distribute malware; interfere with service operation; bypass purchase, entitlement, security, or technical restrictions; or reverse engineer the software except where applicable law expressly permits it.
One-time App Store purchases
Anitalk may offer optional one-time in-app purchases that unlock additional animation packs. Anitalk does not currently offer subscriptions. Apple displays the price for your storefront and processes payment, taxes, transaction records, refunds, and App Store account information under Apple’s terms.
Eligible entitlements can be restored through Anitalk. Access may depend on your Apple Account, verified entitlement status, compatible devices and software, and the continued availability of Apple services. emonster cannot directly modify an Apple transaction or guarantee a refund decision.
License
Anitalk is licensed, not sold. The app license is governed by the license presented through Apple’s App Store. The current public App Store listing does not present a custom Anitalk EULA, so the Apple Standard EULA applies. These Terms supplement that license for product conduct, content, purchases, the website, and support. Applicable App Store terms control if there is a conflict about the app license.
emonster intellectual property
Anitalk, its software, animation systems, graphics, interfaces, documentation, product name, logos, trademarks, inventions, patents, and emonster-provided content are owned by emonster or its licensors and are protected by applicable intellectual-property laws. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.
Third-party services
The Services rely on or link to Apple, Google/Firebase, Mixpanel, Cloudflare, and other third-party services. Their products, availability, terms, and privacy practices are outside emonster’s control. You are responsible for complying with the terms of destinations you choose.
Availability and changes
We may update, change, suspend, or discontinue features, packs, export formats, compatibility, or online components. We do not promise that every feature or purchased item will remain available on every device, operating-system version, or third-party service. Rights that cannot legally be changed or excluded remain unaffected.
Feedback
If you voluntarily send ideas, suggestions, or feedback, you permit emonster to use that feedback without restriction or compensation. This does not give emonster ownership of personal messages or animations you create.
Disclaimers and liability
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Services are provided “as is” and “as available.” We do not warrant uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or universal compatibility with every device, operating-system version, Messages feature, or sharing destination.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, emonster is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for lost data, profits, business, or goodwill arising from the Services. Nothing in these Terms excludes warranties, remedies, liability, or consumer rights that cannot legally be excluded or limited.
Ending use and changes to these Terms
You may stop using Anitalk at any time by deleting the app. We may restrict online portions of the Services when reasonably necessary for security, legal compliance, or a material violation of these Terms. We may update these Terms when the Services or applicable requirements change; the revision date will be updated on this page.
Applicable law
These Terms are subject to applicable law and mandatory consumer protections. Where local law gives you rights or a forum that cannot be waived by contract, those rights and that forum continue to apply.
