Agreement to Terms
These Service Conditions are an agreement between you and Neontree, UAB, a private limited liability company (UAB) incorporated under the laws of the Republic of Lithuania, a member state of the European Union, with its registered address at Žemaitės g. 17-6, LT-87133 Telšiai, Lithuania (the "Company"). Neontree, UAB manages and owns https://www.mynovelica.com, as well as any linked websites or applications under the Novelica branding (collectively known as the Platform). The Platform is operated by Neontree, UAB to enable Users to access personalized interactive audio stories narrated by professional voice artists (collectively referred to as the Services). Neontree, UAB is the seller of the Services and the contracting party under these Conditions.
Group companies. The Company provides the Services together with its affiliated company Chimecorner Inc, a corporation incorporated in the United States of America, with its registered address at 304 S Jones Blvd Ste 7773, Las Vegas, NV 89107, United States. The Company and Chimecorner Inc are affiliated companies forming part of the same corporate group (together, the "Group"). Each affiliated company acts as a payment processing entity of the Group: it is authorized to collect payments for the Services on behalf of the Company, and its name may appear on your bank or card statement (see "Payment and Billing Entities" below). Your contract for the Services is with the Company regardless of which Group company collects your payment.
By accessing or using the Platform or Services, you consent to comply with and be legally bound by these Service Conditions (Conditions). Please thoroughly review these Conditions and our Privacy Statement that is part of them. If you do not accept these Conditions, you must not acquire information from or continue using the Platform or Services.
Those who utilize the Services are called Users, and the terms "you" and "your" apply to you as such. Should you accept these Conditions or access the Services on behalf of a business or other legal body, you confirm your authority to bind that entity; thus, "you" and "your" refer to it. "We", "us", or "our" are used to indicate Neontree, UAB. Furthermore, unless context dictates otherwise, terms referring to one gender embrace all genders, and those in singular form include plural, and vice-versa.
You commit to providing accurate, up-to-date, truthful, and comprehensive information. It is your responsibility to keep your account information, including username and password, confidential. You are accountable for any activities under your account and agree to alert us without delay regarding any unauthorized access or use. You recognize and accept that we are not liable for any damages, losses, expenses, costs, or liabilities stemming from unauthorized access or usage of your account.
THE SERVICES PROVIDE ACCESS TO PERSONALIZED INTERACTIVE AUDIO STORIES. ALL STORY CONTENT IS FICTIONAL. YOU ACKNOWLEDGE THAT BY USING OR ACCESSING THE SERVICES, YOU HAVE READ, UNDERSTAND, AND AGREE TO ADHERE TO THESE CONDITIONS.
These Conditions are supplemented by relevant supplementary agreements, including the terms of service, use policies, and community guidelines of the application stores, advertising platforms, and payment processors through which the Services are distributed or paid for. These Additional Agreements are regarded as integrated by reference into these Conditions.
These terms include an arbitration agreement, requiring individual dispute resolution through arbitration, not in court. There is no judge or jury in arbitration and review is limited. Arbitration is the only dispute resolution method for issues related to your use of Novelica, except for specific exceptions detailed below (you can opt-out of the arbitration agreement, including class action waivers, within 30 days of accepting these terms).
Nature of the Services
-
Audio stories are produced by professional voice artists and are fictional. Every story, narrator voice, and branching scenario made available through the Services is scripted fiction performed by real voice talent. No statement made in a story constitutes a statement of fact by Neontree, UAB or by any real person.
-
No exploitation of minors. The Services may not be used to access or request any content that sexualizes, exploits, or endangers a minor.
-
No real persons. Stories do not depict, and may not be directed to depict, any real, identifiable individual in a defamatory or otherwise harmful manner.
-
Private entertainment only. Stories are produced for the private entertainment of users. You should not treat any story content as factual, instructional, or as professional advice of any kind.
Content Moderation
You acknowledge and agree that:
-
Neontree, UAB reserves the right (but, except as required by law, assumes no obligation) to monitor, review, filter, screen, block, refuse, modify, or remove any inputs you submit and content made available through the Services, using automated systems, human review, or both.

The Services apply content standards designed to prevent the distribution of prohibited content described above. These standards are not guaranteed to detect or prevent all prohibited content.

We may suspend or terminate access, or refuse a request at our discretion where we believe these Conditions may be violated.

We may preserve and disclose content, account information, and usage records where we believe in good faith that doing so is necessary to comply with law, enforce these Conditions, respond to claims, or protect the safety of any person — including reporting to law enforcement or NCMEC as described above.
The application of moderation to your activity does not make Neontree, UAB responsible for content that the moderation systems do not detect, and does not waive any disclaimer or limitation of liability in these Conditions.
Reporting Illegal Content or Abuse
If you encounter content or conduct on the Services that you believe is illegal, exploitative, or in violation of these Conditions — including any content that may involve a minor — report it immediately to [email protected]. We review reports promptly and take appropriate action, including removal, account termination, and reporting to authorities where required.

Modifications take immediate effect upon their posting; however, significant changes to the Conditions affect a pre-existing User merely thirty (30) days post-posting. By continuing to access the Platform post-change, you agree to the revised Conditions. Should the amended Conditions be unacceptable to you, your sole remedy is to discontinue using the Platform and Services.
Eligibility Criteria

We may require age verification or age assurance as a condition of access, and may use third-party verification providers, where required by applicable law, app-store policy, or payment-processor rules. If we learn or reasonably believe that a User is under 16, we will terminate the account and delete associated data in accordance with applicable law.
No Professional Advice
Story content available through the Services is for entertainment purposes only and is not professional advice. Nothing in the Services constitutes financial, investment, legal, medical, psychological, or other professional advice, and you should not act on it as such.
