Terms of Service

01 Acceptance of these Terms

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) form a legally binding agreement between you and [Registered Company Name] (“Skyline Business”, “we”, “us”) governing your access to and use of sky-linebusiness.com, our mobile applications (each an “App”), and any related services (together, the “Services”).

Certain features may be subject to additional terms presented to you at the time — for example an author or distribution agreement, or a promotional campaign. Where those terms conflict with these Terms, the additional terms prevail for that feature.

02 Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use the Services, or older where the law of your country sets a higher minimum age for digital consent (for example 16 in parts of the European Economic Area, or the age of majority in some jurisdictions). If you are under the age of majority where you live, you may use the Services only with the involvement of a parent or legal guardian who agrees to these Terms on your behalf.

By using the Services you represent that:

• you meet the minimum age requirement in your jurisdiction;
• you are not barred from using the Services under any applicable law; and
• you will comply with these Terms and all applicable laws and regulations.

03 Your account

Some features require an account, which may be created with an email address, a third-party sign-in provider, or as a guest account tied to your device. You are responsible for:

• keeping your login credentials confidential and secure;
• all activity that occurs under your account; and
• notifying us promptly at info@sky-linebusiness.com if you suspect unauthorized access.

Accounts are personal. You may not transfer, sell, rent, share or sublicense your account or your access credentials to anyone else. We may reclaim or suspend accounts created with false information, or used in a way that violates these Terms.

04 Licence to use our apps

Subject to your compliance with these Terms, we grant you a limited, personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable licence to install and use the Apps on devices you own or control, for your own non-commercial reading and entertainment.

You may not, and may not permit anyone else to:

• copy, modify, translate, adapt or create derivative works from the Apps;
• reverse engineer, decompile or disassemble the Apps, except where such restriction is prohibited by law;
• scrape, harvest, crawl or bulk-download content from the Apps or the website;
• distribute, resell, sublicense, rent or lease the Apps or content obtained through them; or
• remove or obscure any copyright, trademark or other proprietary notice.

05 Virtual currency & purchases

Our Apps use in-app virtual currency (referred to in individual Apps as coins, bonus coins or similar) to unlock chapters and other content. Virtual currency:

• is a limited, revocable, non-exclusive licence to use a feature within an App — it is not property, legal tender, securities or a stored-value instrument;
• has no cash value and cannot be exchanged, redeemed or refunded for money, goods or anything of value outside the App;
• cannot be transferred between accounts, Apps or platforms, except where a feature expressly allows it;
• is tied to the store account used for the purchase and, in most cases, does not transfer between iOS and Android; and
• expires with the account or with the App availability, as described in section 14.

Prices, bundles and the amount of virtual currency required for a given unlock may change over time and vary by market. Changes apply prospectively and do not affect content you have already unlocked.

06 Refunds

All purchases are processed by the platform store you used — Apple App Store or Google Play. Those stores handle billing and refunds, so refund requests must be submitted through them, and their decisions are made under their own policies.

We do not process payments directly and generally cannot issue refunds ourselves. Where you believe a purchase was charged in error, was not delivered, or relates to a technical fault on our side, contact info@sky-linebusiness.com with your order token and we will investigate and cooperate with the store where appropriate.

Nothing in this section limits any statutory consumer right you have that cannot be waived by agreement.

07 Subscriptions & auto-renewal

If an App offers a subscription or promotional trial, the following applies:

• the price, billing period and any trial length are shown before you confirm;
• payment is charged to your store account upon confirmation of purchase;
• the subscription renews automatically unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period;
• your store account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the period ends; and
• you manage and cancel subscriptions in your store account settings, not inside the App.

Promotional trials may convert to a paid subscription. If you do not wish to be charged, cancel before the trial period ends. Deleting the App does not cancel a subscription.

08 Content & intellectual property

The Apps, the website, and all content made available through them — including titles, chapters, artwork, characters, text, translations, interface designs, logos and software — are owned by us, our affiliated companies, or our content partners and licensors, and are protected by copyright, trademark and other intellectual property laws.

Content is licensed to you for personal, non-commercial reading within the Services only. You may not reproduce, republish, distribute, translate, publicly perform, or create derivative works from any content without prior written permission from the rights holder.

“Skyline Business”, our app names and our logos are our trademarks. Nothing in these Terms grants you any right to use them.

09 Author & partner submissions

If you submit content to us — for example a manuscript, translation, artwork or metadata through our author platform — the following applies in addition to any separate agreement you sign.

9.1 You keep ownership

You retain all rights, title and interest in the content you submit. We claim no ownership of your work.

9.2 Licence you grant us

To distribute your content, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-bearing licence to reproduce, adapt for formatting and localization, publish, distribute, market and make your content available within our apps and partner channels, for the term and territory set out in your distribution agreement. We may sublicense these rights only to the extent necessary to distribute through our app network and authorized partners.

9.3 Your warranties

By submitting content you represent and warrant that:

• you own or control all rights necessary to grant the licence above;
• the content is your original work, and does not infringe anyone's copyright, trademark, privacy or other rights;
• the content does not contain unlawful material, and complies with the content standards set out in your agreement; and
• you have disclosed any prior publication or third-party rights that could affect distribution.

We may reject, remove or decline to distribute any submission that fails review, breaches these Terms, or exposes us to legal risk. Review outcomes and revenue-share percentages are governed by the applicable distribution agreement.

10 Reviews & user content

You may be able to post reviews, comments or other material (“User Content”). You keep ownership of your User Content, and you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, royalty-free licence to use, reproduce, display and distribute it in connection with the Services.

You agree that your User Content will not:

• be unlawful, defamatory, obscene, hateful, harassing or discriminatory;
• contain spoilers of paid content without an appropriate warning;
• infringe any third party's rights, or contain another person's private information;
• contain malware, advertising or promotional spam; or
• impersonate another person or misrepresent your affiliation.

We may moderate, edit for formatting, or remove User Content at our discretion, and may suspend accounts that repeatedly breach these standards.

11 Acceptable use

When using the Services you must not:

1. use them for any unlawful purpose, or in breach of applicable export or sanctions law;
2. tamper with, disrupt or place undue load on our systems, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to any account, network or data;
3. use bots, automation, exploits, modified clients or emulators to farm virtual currency, unlocks or rewards;
4. circumvent geographic restrictions, age gates, paywalls or licensing controls;
5. collect information about other users without their consent;
6. upload content that contains viruses or any other harmful code; or
7. assist anyone else in doing any of the above.

Breach of this section may result in suspension or permanent termination of your account, forfeiture of virtual currency obtained through the breach, and where appropriate referral to law enforcement.

12 App stores & third-party services

You acquire our Apps through a third-party store, and your use of that store is governed by its own terms. These Terms are between you and us only — not with the store operator. The store operator has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for the Apps.

For iOS Apps, you acknowledge that Apple's standard Licensed Application End User Licence Agreement applies to the extent it is not superseded by these Terms, and that Apple is a third-party beneficiary of these Terms.

The Services may contain links to third-party sites or services. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content, terms or privacy practices.

13 Availability & changes to the Services

We provide the Services on an ongoing basis but they are not guaranteed to be uninterrupted or error-free. We may modify, update, suspend or discontinue all or part of a Service, or remove content, at any time — including where required by licensing rights, store policy or law.

Where we discontinue an App entirely and you hold unused purchased virtual currency, we will, where technically and legally feasible, give reasonable advance notice and a mechanism to use or resolve the remaining balance.

14 Suspension & termination

You may stop using the Services at any time and may request deletion of your account by writing to info@sky-linebusiness.com.

We may suspend or terminate your access, with or without notice, if you materially breach these Terms, if we are required to do so by law or store policy, or if your use exposes us or other users to risk. On termination:

• your licence to use the Apps ends, and you must stop using them;
• any virtual currency balance associated with the terminated account is forfeited, except where applicable law provides otherwise; and
• sections that by their nature should survive — including content ownership, disclaimers, liability limits and governing law — remain in effect.

15 Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Services and all content are provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title and non-infringement.

We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, secure or free of errors, that content will be accurate or complete, or that any defect will be corrected. Content is provided for entertainment purposes and does not constitute professional advice.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so parts of this section may not apply to you. Nothing here affects your statutory consumer rights.

16 Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we, our affiliates, directors, employees and licensors will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill or anticipated savings, arising out of or relating to your use of the Services — whether based in contract, tort, strict liability or otherwise, and even if we have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

To the extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Services will not exceed the greater of: (a) the total amount you paid to us through the Services in the twelve (12) months preceding the event giving rise to the claim; or (b) [Currency Amount].

Nothing in these Terms excludes or limits liability that cannot lawfully be excluded or limited, including liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, or for fraud or fraudulent misrepresentation.

17 Indemnity

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Skyline Business and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees and agents from any claims, liabilities, damages, losses and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from: your breach of these Terms; your misuse of the Services; content you submit; or your infringement of any third party's rights.

This obligation does not apply to the extent a claim results from our own negligence or breach of these Terms.

18 Copyright complaints

We respect intellectual property rights and expect our users and content partners to do the same. If you believe content available through the Services infringes your copyright, send a notice to info@sky-linebusiness.com including:

1. identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed;
2. the exact location of the allegedly infringing material (app name, title and chapter);
3. your name, address, telephone number and email address;
4. a statement that you have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized;
5. a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are the rights holder or authorized to act on their behalf; and
6. your physical or electronic signature.

We will review valid notices and remove or disable access to the material where appropriate. Accounts or partners that repeatedly infringe may be terminated.

19 Governing law & disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of [Governing Law / Jurisdiction], without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

Subject to any mandatory consumer protection rules in your country of residence, the courts of [Venue] will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising from these Terms or the Services.

20 Changes to these Terms

We may revise these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will update the effective date at the top of this page. Material changes affecting your rights will be notified in the App or by email before they take effect, where the law requires it.

Continuing to use the Services after a revision takes effect means you accept the revised Terms. If you do not agree, you may stop using the Services and request account deletion.
