1) Acceptance of These Terms

These Terms of Use (“Terms”) form a binding agreement between you and Mini Alims LLC, a wholly owned subsidiary of Blue Oak LLC (“Mini Alims,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) governing your access to and use of the Mini Alims mobile application(s), website(s), content, and related services (collectively, the “Services”). By creating an account, downloading, installing, accessing, or using the Services, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Notice. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

Important: The Services are designed for children’s learning under the supervision of a parent, legal guardian, or school/teacher. A parent/guardian must create the account prior to use by a child.

2) Eligibility & Accounts

You must be at least 18 and capable of forming a binding contract to create a parent/guardian account and enable a child’s use of the Services. You are responsible for your account credentials and for monitoring the child’s activity.

You agree to provide and maintain accurate information and to keep your login secure. Notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.

3) Child Privacy

We take children’s privacy very seriously. Our Privacy Notice explains what information we collect, how we use it, parental rights (review, deletion, refusal of further collection), security, and data retention. By using the Services, you acknowledge the Privacy Notice.

4) Licenses; Ownership

  • Our Content. The Services, including all software, features, lesson plans, games, text, graphics, videos, audio, characters, curricula, and other materials (“Content”) are owned by Mini Alims or our licensors and are protected by intellectual-property laws. Except as expressly permitted, you may not copy, modify, create derivative works, distribute, sell, lease, or publicly perform the Content.
  • Limited License to You. Subject to these Terms, Mini Alims grants you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable, limited license to install and use the App and access the Services for personal, non-commercial educational use during your active subscription or authorized access period.
  • Feedback. If you submit ideas, suggestions, or feedback, you grant Mini Alims a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use them without restriction or compensation.

5) Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

  1. Use the Services in any unlawful manner or in violation of these Terms or applicable laws (including child-protection and data-protection laws).
  2. Attempt to access accounts or data without authorization; probe, scan, or test vulnerabilities; or interfere with security features.
  3. Upload, share, or create content that is harmful, harassing, obscene, infringing, or otherwise inappropriate for children.
  4. Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or attempt to derive the source code of the Services, except where such restrictions are prohibited by law.
  5. Use bots, scrapers, or automated means to access the Services or to collect information.
  6. Circumvent geographic or age-based restrictions, entitlements, or subscription rules.

We may suspend or terminate access for violations.

6) In-App Purchases, Subscriptions & Trials

  • App Stores as Merchants. Purchases (including subscriptions and trials) made through Apple App Store or Google Play are processed by those stores, not Mini Alims. Billing, renewals, cancellations, and refunds are handled under the store’s terms and policies. Please review your platform’s subscription settings to manage your plan. Mini Alims does not process or issue refunds directly. Refunds, if available, are governed by the policies of your app-store provider. Please visit Apple’s or Google Play’s support pages to request a refund.
  • Auto-Renewal. Unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period (or as required by the store), subscriptions renew automatically and you authorize the store to charge the then-current price.
  • Free Trials/Promotions. Trial periods convert to paid subscriptions unless canceled per store rules. Eligibility and duration may vary. We may change or discontinue promotions at any time.
  • Price Changes. We may change pricing for new terms. Where required, we or the app store will provide notice and obtain consent or allow cancellation.

7) Third-Party Services & Links

The Services may reference or integrate third-party tools (e.g., identity, analytics, cloud hosting) and may include links to third-party sites. Mini Alims is not responsible for third-party content, policies, or practices. Your use of third-party services is governed by their terms and privacy policies.

8) Updates & Changes to the Services

We continually improve the Services and may add, change, or remove features, content, or functionality (including for safety, performance, or legal compliance). We may require you to install updates. If a change materially reduces core functionality of a paid subscription, we will provide notice consistent with applicable law and platform policies.

9) Termination

You may stop using the Services at any time and can cancel subscriptions through your app-store account in accordance with applicable terms. We may suspend or terminate access (with or without notice) if you materially breach these Terms, use the Services unlawfully or harmfully, or as required by law. Upon termination, your license ends and you must cease use; certain sections (e.g., IP ownership, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnity, dispute terms) survive termination.

10) Disclaimers

THE SERVICES AND CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MINI ALIMS AND ITS LICENSORS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE. We do not guarantee that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that learning outcomes will meet any particular standard.

11) Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, MINI ALIMS, ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES; LOSS OF DATA; LOSS OF PROFITS; OR BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNT YOU PAID FOR THE SERVICES IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR $50, WHICHEVER IS GREATER. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; these may not apply to you if prohibited by your jurisdiction.

12) Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Mini Alims, its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from your misuse of the Services, violation of these Terms, or infringement of any person’s rights.

13) Intellectual Property Notices

All Mini Alims names, logos, characters, and marks are trademarks or service marks of Mini Alims LLC, a subsidiary of Blue Oak LLC, or its licensors. Other names and logos are the property of their respective owners. No rights are granted except as expressly set forth in these Terms.

14) App Store Terms Apply

You acknowledge that your app-store provider (Apple or Google) is not a party to these Terms and is not responsible for the Services or their support. Your use of the App must comply with the app-store terms (e.g., Apple Media Services Terms, Google Play Terms). Mini Alims is solely responsible for addressing any claims relating to the App or your possession/use of it, subject to these Terms.

15) Export & Sanctions

You may not use, export, or re-export the App except as authorized by U.S. law and the laws of the jurisdiction(s) where the App was obtained. By using the Services, you represent that you are not located in a country subject to U.S. embargo or on any U.S. government list of restricted or prohibited parties.

16) Waiver.

The failure of Khan Academy to exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms will not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. Any waiver of any provision of the Terms will be effective only if in writing and signed by Khan Academy.

17) Governing Law; Venue

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Maryland, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules, and applicable federal law. Unless prohibited by law, you agree to exclusive jurisdiction and venue in the state or federal courts located in Maryland for any dispute not subject to arbitration. Subject to the obligation to arbitrate below, you agree to personal jurisdiction by the federal and state courts located in the State of Maryland, United States of America, and waive any jurisdictional, venue, or inconvenient forum objections to such courts.

18) Dispute Resolution & Arbitration

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT AFFECTS YOUR RIGHTS. EXCEPT AS REQUIRED BY APPLICABLE LAW OTHERWISE SPECIFIED IN APPLICABLE SUPPLEMENTAL TERMS, BY AGREEING TO BINDING ARBITRATION, YOU WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO LITIGATE DISPUTES THROUGH A COURT AND TO HAVE A JUDGE OR JURY DECIDE YOUR CASE. YOU ALSO AGREE TO WAIVE YOUR RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION, CLASS ARBITRATION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE ACTION. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IF A DISPUTE IS NOT FILED WITHIN ONE YEAR, IT IS PERMANENTLY BARRED.

Except where prohibited by applicable law, You and Mini Alims agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms, which cannot be amicably resolved (a “Claim”) will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that either party may bring an individual claim in small claims court.

The private and confidential binding arbitration will be held before a single arbitrator in the State of Maryland, United States in English and governed by Maryland law pursuant to the arbitration legislation in the State of Maryland, as amended, replaced or re-enacted from time to time. The arbitrator will be a person who is legally trained and who has experience in the information technology field in Canada or the United States of America and is independent of either party. Any such Claim will be arbitrated on an individual basis and will not be consolidated in any arbitration with any claim, controversy or dispute of any other party. Except where prohibited by applicable law, you agree to waive any right you may have to commence or participate in any class action against us relating to any Claim and you also agree to opt out of any class proceedings against us. Notwithstanding the foregoing, we reserve the right to pursue the protection of intellectual property rights and confidential information through injunctive or other equitable relief through the courts.

  • No Jury Trial; Limited Court Rights. In arbitration, there is no judge or jury, and court review of an arbitration award is limited.
  • Class-Action Waiver. You and Mini Alims agree that each may bring claims against the other only in an individual capacity, not as a class member or in any representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person’s claims.
  • Rules & Forum. Arbitration shall be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules. Judgment on the award rendered by the arbitrator may be entered in any court with jurisdiction.

20) Changes to the Terms

At any time, we may amend these Terms of Use by modifying, deleting and/or adding any portion thereof. When changes or updates are made, we will update the “Last Updated” date above accordingly to indicate the effective date. If we make a material amendment to these Terms of Use, we will notify you of such amendment by sending you an email at the last e-mail address that you provided us, and/or by posting notice of such amendment on the websites covered by these Terms of Use or via the relevant App store or the App itself, as required and in accordance with applicable law. Your continued use after the effective date signifies acceptance of the updated Terms.

21) Headings

The heading references herein are for convenience purposes only, do not constitute a part of the Terms, and will not be deemed to limit or affect any of the provisions hereof.

22) Severability

If any provision of the Terms or any associated guidelines is held to be unlawful, void, or for any reason unenforceable, then that provision will be limited or eliminated from the Terms to the minimum extent necessary and will not affect the validity and enforceability of any remaining provisions.

23) Assignment

The Terms, and any rights and licenses granted hereunder, may not be transferred or assigned by you without Mini Alims’ prior written consent, but may be assigned by Mini Alims without consent or any restriction. Any assignment attempted to be made in violation of the Terms shall be null and void.
