Terms of Use

Last updated August 24, 2026

These Terms of Use govern your access to and use of the DinoLock mobile application, website, and related services provided by Batuhan Bayır. Please read them carefully before using DinoLock.

1. Acceptance of these Terms

These Terms form a binding agreement between you and Batuhan Bayır, referred to in these Terms as “DinoLock,” “we,” “us,” or “our.” “Services” means the DinoLock app, the DinoLock website, and any related features or support we provide.

By downloading, accessing, creating an account, purchasing a subscription, or otherwise using the Services, you confirm that you have read and accepted these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

If you use DinoLock for a child or allow a child to use your account or device, you confirm that you are authorized to accept these Terms for that child and that you will supervise the child’s use where required.

2. The DinoLock service

DinoLock combines learning activities with focus controls. Depending on the features available to you, DinoLock may let you:

• Select apps or app categories using Apple Screen Time controls.
• Shield selected apps during configured periods or after earned access time is used.
• Answer math, language, or subject questions to earn limited access time.
• Create, edit, save, and synchronize question sets.
• Generate questions and explanations from a topic, typed instructions, a photo, or a document.
• Choose learning difficulty, reward amounts, daily goals, limits, and sleep settings.
• Receive reminders and status notifications when permission is granted.
• Access free or paid features described in the App.

The exact features, limits, and availability may depend on your device, operating system, region, subscription, account status, and Apple or third party services.

3. Eligibility and family use

Age and legal capacity

You must be legally able to enter into this agreement. If local law does not allow you to consent on your own, a parent or legal guardian must review and accept these Terms and authorize your use.

Parent and student modes

DinoLock may offer parent and student experiences. A mode label does not verify identity, age, guardianship, or authority. Adults are responsible for choosing the appropriate mode, reviewing settings, and deciding whether the Services are suitable for a child.

Supervision

DinoLock supports learning and focus, but it does not replace active parenting, teaching, professional advice, or device supervision. A parent or guardian remains responsible for the child’s device access, uploaded materials, learning choices, and safety.

4. Accounts and sign in

DinoLock may require an account for cloud synchronization and certain features. You may be able to sign in with Apple or Google. Your relationship with the chosen sign in provider is also governed by that provider’s terms and privacy practices.

You agree to provide accurate information, keep your provider account secure, and notify us if you suspect unauthorized access. You may not use another person’s account without permission, impersonate another person, or create an account for deceptive or unlawful purposes.

You are responsible for activity performed through your account and for maintaining access to the Apple or Google account used to sign in. We cannot recover credentials controlled by Apple or Google.

5. Screen Time features

Permission and selection

App shielding requires authorization through Apple’s Screen Time frameworks. You choose the apps, categories, or websites you want DinoLock to manage. You can change your selection or revoke authorization using DinoLock and iOS settings.

How shielding can be affected

Screen Time behavior depends on Apple’s operating system and privacy controls. A shield may start late, end late, fail to activate, or behave differently after an iOS update, device restart, permission change, reinstall, family configuration change, or service interruption.

No safety guarantee

DinoLock is not a security system, emergency service, medical tool, or guaranteed parental control. Do not rely on it to prevent access where a failure could cause harm, loss, or danger. Users and guardians should verify important restrictions directly on the device.

Earned access time

Access rewards are an in app feature, not money, stored value, or property. They cannot be transferred, sold, redeemed for cash, or used outside DinoLock. We may correct balances affected by errors, abuse, or technical faults.

6. Questions and learning results

DinoLock may provide built in questions and let users create or import question sets. Questions, answers, explanations, difficulty levels, and progress information are provided for general educational use.

We do not guarantee that content is complete, current, suitable for a specific curriculum, free from errors, or appropriate for every learner. DinoLock is not an accredited school, examination provider, tutoring service, or professional educational assessment.

Users, parents, and educators should review important content before relying on it. Learning progress in DinoLock does not represent an official grade, qualification, diagnosis, or prediction of academic performance.

7. Your content

What your content includes

“Your Content” includes topics, instructions, question sets, answers, documents, photos, text, feedback, and other material you submit or create through the Services.

Your responsibility

You keep any rights you already hold in Your Content. You confirm that you have all permissions needed to submit and process it. You must not upload content that is unlawful, harmful, confidential without authorization, or that infringes copyright, privacy, or other rights.

Permission to operate the Services

You give us a limited, worldwide permission to host, copy, transmit, format, and process Your Content only as reasonably needed to provide, secure, maintain, and support the Services. This permission ends when the content is deleted from active systems, subject to technical backups and legal retention duties.

Content review and removal

We are not required to monitor all content. We may restrict or remove content when reasonably necessary to comply with law, protect users or systems, respond to a rights claim, or enforce these Terms.

8. AI powered features

How AI is used

When you request question generation or extraction, DinoLock may send your instructions and selected source material to Google Firebase AI Logic and Google Cloud Vertex AI. The service may return questions, answer choices, correct answers, explanations, or structured learning content.

Review every output

AI output can be inaccurate, incomplete, misleading, repetitive, or inappropriate. It may misunderstand a source, select the wrong answer, or create information that was not present. You must review generated content before using it for learning, assessment, supervision, or any important decision.

Material you should not submit

Do not submit passwords, payment details, private identification documents, medical records, confidential school records, trade secrets, or personal information you are not authorized to process. Use only material you have the legal right to upload.

No exclusive output

AI systems may generate similar content for different users. We do not promise that an AI output is unique, protectable, or free of third party claims. Your use of an output must comply with law and these Terms.

9. Subscriptions, trials, and billing

Free and paid access

DinoLock may provide free features and optional paid plans. The subscription screen and Apple purchase sheet show the available plan, local price, billing period, included features, and any trial or introductory offer before purchase.

Payment and automatic renewal

Apple processes payments through the App Store. Your Apple account is charged when you confirm a purchase. An automatically renewing subscription continues for the selected billing period unless you cancel it through Apple before renewal. Apple may charge the renewal within the period shown in its purchase terms.

Manage or cancel

Open iOS Settings, select your Apple Account, select Subscriptions, then choose DinoLock. Deleting the App or deleting your DinoLock account does not cancel an Apple subscription.

Trials and promotions

If a trial or promotion is offered, the terms displayed at purchase apply. Unless you cancel before the trial ends, Apple may convert the trial into a paid subscription at the displayed price. Eligibility for trials is determined by Apple and may be limited.

Price or feature changes

Prices and plan features may change. Apple will request consent or provide notice when required. A change does not affect a completed billing period except where law permits.

Restoring purchases

You can use Restore Purchases in DinoLock while signed in to the Apple account used for the original purchase. Subscription status can take time to refresh when Apple or RevenueCat is unavailable.

Refunds

Apple controls App Store billing and refund decisions. We cannot directly issue an App Store refund. You may request one through Apple Report a Problem, subject to Apple’s rules and applicable consumer law.

Apple license terms

Where applicable, your use of the iOS App is also subject to Apple’s Standard Licensed Application End User License Agreement. If these Terms conflict with mandatory App Store terms, the mandatory terms control for that issue.

10. Device permissions and notifications

DinoLock may request Screen Time, camera, photo, file, and notification access. Permission prompts are controlled by iOS. You can decline or later revoke a permission, but related features may stop working.

Camera, photo, and file access is used only when you choose source material for a learning request. Notifications may include reminders, progress information, or service messages. Delivery is not guaranteed and may be affected by device settings, Focus modes, or Apple services.

11. License and intellectual property

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a personal, limited, revocable, nonexclusive, nontransferable license to install and use DinoLock on devices you own or control for lawful personal, family, or educational use.

DinoLock’s software, design, characters, artwork, branding, text, interface, and original materials are owned by us or our licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not transfer ownership to you.

You may not copy, sell, sublicense, rent, distribute, modify, create unauthorized derivative works from, or exploit the Services except where these Terms or applicable law expressly allow it. You may not remove ownership notices or use DinoLock branding in a way that suggests endorsement.

If you send suggestions or feedback, you allow us to use them without restriction or payment, while we continue to protect personal information as described in the Privacy Policy.

12. Prohibited uses

You may not use the Services to:

• Break any law, regulation, court order, or another person’s rights.
• Upload malware, harmful code, abusive material, or unlawful content.
• Harass, exploit, endanger, or impersonate another person.
• Access another account, system, or data without permission.
• Bypass security, usage limits, payment controls, or access restrictions.
• Reverse engineer or extract source code except where law gives you that right.
• Use bots, scraping, or automated requests that burden or disrupt the Services.
• Use AI features to produce deceptive, infringing, harmful, or illegal material.
• Resell the Services or use them to build a competing dataset or model without written permission.
• Misrepresent DinoLock as a guaranteed parental control, accredited learning service, or professional advice tool.

13. Third party services

DinoLock depends on services provided by Apple, Google Firebase, Google Cloud, Google Sign In, RevenueCat, and other infrastructure providers. These services may have separate terms, privacy policies, account requirements, regional limits, and availability.

We do not control third party services. To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for their content, policies, security, outages, purchase decisions, or changes. Links to third party sites are provided for convenience and do not mean we endorse every part of those sites.

14. Availability, maintenance, and updates

We may maintain, repair, update, replace, limit, or discontinue any part of DinoLock. We may release updates needed for security, compatibility, legal compliance, or new features. Some features may require the latest version of the App or iOS.

We do not promise uninterrupted or error free availability. Internet access, Apple services, Firebase, Google AI, RevenueCat, device resources, and operating system behavior can affect performance. We may set reasonable usage limits to protect quality, cost, and security.

15. Account deletion, suspension, and termination

Your choices

You can stop using DinoLock at any time. You can request account deletion through the Profile screen. Account deletion is permanent and may remove your account, cloud profile, synchronized settings, and question sets as described in the Privacy Policy.

Our enforcement rights

We may suspend, limit, or terminate access when reasonably necessary to investigate abuse, protect users or systems, comply with law, address nonpayment, or enforce serious or repeated violations of these Terms.

What survives

Provisions that by their nature should continue after termination remain effective, including ownership, disclaimers, liability limits, dispute terms, and obligations related to past use. Account deletion does not cancel an Apple subscription.

16. Disclaimers

To the fullest extent allowed by law, the Services are provided “as is” and “as available.” We do not make warranties about uninterrupted operation, compatibility, security, accuracy, fitness for a particular purpose, learning improvement, reduced screen use, or successful app shielding.

DinoLock does not provide medical, psychological, legal, or professional educational advice. Nothing in the Services should be treated as a diagnosis or as a replacement for a qualified professional.

Some countries do not allow certain warranty exclusions. In those places, these exclusions apply only to the extent the law permits and do not remove mandatory consumer rights.

17. Limitation of liability and indemnity

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we and our service providers will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, lost data, lost profits, missed restrictions, lost access time, reliance on AI content, or interruption of learning or device access.

Where liability cannot be fully excluded, our total liability arising from the Services will not exceed the greater of the amount you paid for DinoLock during the twelve months before the event giving rise to the claim or the minimum amount required by applicable law.

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to compensate us for third party claims and reasonable costs caused by your unlawful use, Your Content, or material breach of these Terms. This obligation does not apply where the claim was caused by our own unlawful conduct or where consumer law does not allow it.

18. Governing law and general terms

These Terms are governed by the laws of Türkiye, without excluding mandatory consumer protections that apply where you live. A dispute may be brought before any court or authority that has jurisdiction under applicable law.

If one provision is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions continue in effect and the affected provision will be applied as closely as law allows. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not transfer your agreement without our permission, but we may transfer it as part of a lawful business reorganization or transfer of the Services.

These Terms, the Privacy Policy, and terms shown at purchase form the agreement between you and us concerning the Services, subject to any mandatory platform or consumer terms.

19. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms when DinoLock, our providers, or applicable law changes. The date at the top shows the latest revision. We may provide an in app notice or another prominent notice for material changes when required.

Changes apply prospectively from their effective date. If you continue using the Services after an update takes effect, you accept the revised Terms. If you do not agree, you should stop using the Services and cancel any subscription through Apple.
