Parlify Terms of Service

Effective date: 13 November 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Parlify mobile application and of the analysis service it connects to (together, "Parlify" or the "Service"). Please read them carefully. By installing or using Parlify, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use Parlify.

2. Who may use Parlify

Parlify is intended for people aged 18 and over. By using Parlify, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old. Voluntary contributions (section 6) are also reserved for people aged 18 and over.


3. What Parlify does

Parlify lets you read a short French text aloud. Your recording is sent to our server, which analyses your pronunciation and returns:
- an estimate of the accents heard in your French, expressed as percentages;
- indicators such as Accent and Rhythm;
- a pronunciation analysis with a score for individual French sounds.

Parlify is free. It requires no account and contains no in-app purchases. An internet connection is required for the analysis.

How we handle your recordings and other data is described in our Privacy Policy: http://plus-games.com/parlifyprivacy. It forms part of these Terms.


4. What your results mean, and what they do not mean

Parlify's results are automatic estimates produced by statistical models, for information and for learning purposes only. In particular:
- An accent estimate compares your pronunciation with groups of speakers in our research corpus. It does not reveal or certify your nationality, ethnicity, origin, language level or identity, and it may be wrong.
- Having an accent is not a defect. A score is not a judgment of your abilities or of your worth.
- Results can be affected by background noise, the microphone, a skipped or misread word, or the way the text was read.
- Parlify is not a language certification or an official test, and it does not replace a teacher or a speech professional.

You must not use Parlify's results, yours or anyone else's, to make decisions about a person, such as hiring, housing, admission to a school, immigration, or access to any service, or to discriminate against anyone.


5. Your recordings

Record only your own voice. Do not record or upload another person's voice without that person's consent.

You keep all rights to your recordings. You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, free licence to store and process each recording solely to provide the analysis you requested. As described in our Privacy Policy, recordings sent for an ordinary analysis are deleted once processing ends and are not used to train our models.


6. Voluntary contributions

Parlify lets you, if you wish, contribute recordings and questionnaire answers to our research ("Help the project"). This is optional and requires your separate, explicit consent in the app.

If you contribute, you grant us a non-exclusive, free licence to store, analyse and use your contribution for research and to improve Parlify's accent recognition, including training and evaluating our models, for the retention period set out in our Privacy Policy (currently five years). You can ask us at any time to access or delete your contribution and withdraw your consent, by writing to [email protected] with the contribution code shown in the app. Withdrawing your consent does not affect processing carried out before the withdrawal.

To protect the research, we accept one contribution per device and five per network.


7. Acceptable use

When using Parlify, you agree not to:
- use Parlify for any unlawful purpose or in breach of these Terms;
- submit content that is not a reading of the proposed text or word list, or that contains unlawful material;
- send automated or bulk requests to our server, or try to bypass its limits (including the contribution limits);
- attempt to disrupt, overload or gain unauthorised access to the Service, its servers or its data;
- copy, decompile, reverse engineer or extract the models, the source code or the data of the Service, except where the law expressly allows it;
- impersonate another person, or submit another person's voice without their consent.

We may block access to the Service, for example from a device or a network, in case of abuse.


8. Intellectual property

Parlify, including its software, models, texts, word lists, design, logos and the "Parlify" name, belongs to Plus Games or its licensors and is protected by intellectual property law. We grant you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to use the app for your own non-commercial purposes, in accordance with these Terms.

Parlify includes third-party components, such as open-source software and speech models, which are subject to their own licence terms.


9. Availability and changes to the Service

We provide Parlify free of charge and we may improve, modify, suspend or discontinue all or part of it at any time, in particular for maintenance, security or to change the models. Features announced as "coming soon" may change or may never be released. We do our best to keep the Service available, but we do not guarantee that it will be uninterrupted, error-free, or available in every country or on every device.


10. Liability

Parlify is provided free of charge, "as is" and "as available", to the extent permitted by law. Nothing in these Terms limits or excludes our liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, for gross negligence or wilful misconduct, or any other liability that cannot be limited or excluded by law, including your statutory rights as a consumer.

Within those limits, we are not liable for:
- decisions you or others take on the basis of the results;
- indirect losses, such as loss of opportunity or of data;
- interruptions or problems caused by your device, your network or events beyond our reasonable control.


11. Ending your use of Parlify

You can stop using Parlify at any time by uninstalling the app. Uninstalling does not delete a contribution you have already submitted: to delete it, follow section 6.

We may suspend or end your access to the Service if you seriously or repeatedly breach these Terms.


12. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms, for example to reflect new features or legal requirements. The effective date at the top shows when they were last changed. If a change is significant, we will inform you in the app or on this page before it takes effect. If you continue to use Parlify after the new Terms take effect, they apply to you. If you do not agree with them, stop using Parlify.


13. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by French law. If you are a consumer living in another country of the European Union, you also keep the protection of the mandatory rules of your country of residence.

In case of a problem, please contact us first at [email protected]: we will try to find a solution with you.


14. General

If any provision of these Terms is found to be invalid, the other provisions remain in force. Our failure to enforce any provision does not mean that we waive it. You may not transfer your rights under these Terms without our agreement.
