Different user terms apply only where TR Studio Lab expressly agrees to them.

- are technically permitted to use Nuance.
Existing beta users enter into the usage agreement no later than when they first expressly accept these Terms.
The Privacy Notice explains how personal data is processed. Acknowledging that you have read the Privacy Notice is separate from accepting these Terms.

Some content provided by Nuance is generated using artificial intelligence.
AI output may:

- misunderstand information;
- miss relevant context;
- be worded inappropriately;
- misinterpret motives or emotions;

- be unsuitable for a particular situation.
You must review every draft before using it.
You are solely responsible for deciding whether to:
- use;
- edit;
- copy;
- share;
- send;
- disregard
a message.
Nuance does not send messages automatically.
The native sharing interface does not reliably confirm to Nuance whether text was actually sent or delivered.
8. No professional advice or emergency service
Nuance is not:
- psychotherapy;
- medical or psychiatric treatment;

12. Credits, Standard, Deep and Beta Pro
Nuance uses credits to technically limit certain AI features.
Credits may come from:
- monthly free allowances;
- Beta Pro assignments;
- administrative test grants;
- other expressly displayed beta credit buckets.
Credits:
- are not legal tender;
- have no cash value;

Standard and Deep may use different:
- technical models;

- availability requirements.
Beta Pro is a beta entitlement granted for testing and is not currently a paid subscription.
No real subscription or paid credit purchase is available during the current beta.
A button such as “Buy more credits” currently opens product information only and does not initiate a purchase.
Before paid subscriptions or credit packs are activated, separate pricing, payment, cancellation, withdrawal and refund information will be provided and these Terms will be updated.
13. Availability and beta status
Nuance is under active development.
You may experience:
- interruptions;
- delays;
- model or provider errors;
- incorrect imports;
- incomplete AI output;
- interface changes;
- beta-feature changes;
- adjustments to technical limits;
- temporary unavailability.
TR Studio Lab aims to provide reasonable availability but does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free use unless mandatory law requires otherwise.
Mandatory statutory rights concerning digital products remain unaffected.
14. Changes to Nuance
TR Studio Lab may modify Nuance for objectively justified reasons, including:
- improving security and stability;
- correcting errors;
- developing features;
- complying with legal requirements;
- responding to changes made by external providers;
- preventing abuse;
- adjusting the beta.
Where a change materially affects access or usability, we will provide any notice required by law.
Mandatory rights concerning digital products remain unaffected.
15. Account deletion and termination
You can permanently delete your account inside the application:
Relationships → Account and data → Delete account
Account deletion terminates the usage agreement and deletes associated Nuance application data as described in the Privacy Notice.
A Google Form made available through the Google Play listing may be used for external account-deletion requests.
Submitting an external request does not automatically delete the account. We may first verify that you own the identified account.
TR Studio Lab may suspend access or terminate the agreement for good cause, including:
- serious or repeated breach of these Terms;
- misuse;
- unlawful use;
- security risks;
- attacks on technical systems;
- circumvention of credits or limits.
Where immediate suspension is not required, reasonable prior notice will be provided.
16. Rights in Nuance
The software, design, branding, text, database structure and other elements of Nuance are legally protected.
You receive a limited, personal, revocable and non-transferable right to use Nuance in accordance with these Terms.
Mandatory statutory rights, including rights concerning interoperability or error investigation, remain unaffected.
17. Third-party services
Nuance relies on third-party services, including:
- Supabase;
- OpenAI;
- Expo Application Services;
- Google Play;
- Google Forms;
- the operating system;
- the native sharing interface;
- external communication applications selected by you.
The availability of external services may be outside TR Studio Lab’s control.
The terms of the relevant third party also apply to accounts, services and content you use directly with that third party.
18. Statutory warranty and consumer rights
TR Studio Lab does not exclude mandatory statutory rights.
In particular, consumer rights concerning:
- failure to supply;
- defects;
- missing updates;
- unlawful modifications of digital products
remain unaffected.
Beta notices and feature descriptions do not constitute a waiver of mandatory consumer rights.
19. Liability
TR Studio Lab has unlimited liability:
- for intent and gross negligence;
- for injury to life, body or health;
- under product-liability law;
- within the scope of an expressly assumed guarantee;
- where limitation of liability is prohibited by law.
For a slightly negligent breach of an essential contractual obligation, liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical of the agreement.
An essential contractual obligation is an obligation whose performance is necessary for proper performance of the agreement and on which you may normally rely.
Otherwise, liability for slight negligence is excluded to the extent permitted by law.
These liability provisions also apply to legal representatives and agents.
TR Studio Lab is not liable for the content of a message that you use or send after your own review, or for another person’s reaction, unless the damage results from a breach of duty by TR Studio Lab.
20. Privacy
Information about personal-data processing is provided in the Privacy Notice for Nuance.
You can access the Privacy Notice inside the application under:
Relationships → Account and data → Privacy Notice
A Google Form made available through the Google Play listing may be used for external account-deletion requests.

21. Changes to these Terms
TR Studio Lab may update these Terms where there is an objectively justified reason, including:
- changes in law;
- new features;
- new payment models;
- security requirements;
- changes to important service providers;
- changes to the beta structure.
Material changes will be communicated in an appropriate and timely manner.
Where required, you will be asked to expressly accept a new version.
Acceptance of an old version does not automatically constitute acceptance of a materially changed version.
22. Governing law
German law applies, excluding the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods.
For consumers, this choice of law applies only to the extent that it does not remove protection provided by mandatory provisions of the country of their habitual residence.
Exclusive jurisdiction in Mannheim applies only where you are:
- a merchant;
- a legal entity under public law;
- a special fund under public law;
or where a jurisdiction agreement is otherwise legally permitted.
23. Language and final provisions
The German version of these Terms is authoritative.
The English translation is provided for convenience. Mandatory statutory rights are not limited by this provision.
If any provision of these Terms is wholly or partly invalid, the remaining provisions remain effective. Statutory provisions apply in place of the invalid provision.
