This permission is required for two purposes:

  • Uploading a profile picture: We only access the selected image to upload as your profile picture. We do not access or modify any other media files on your device.
  • Saving downloaded Lecture audio: When you choose to download a Lecture audio, the app saves the audio file to your device's storage:
    • On Android, the audio is saved to your device's Downloads folder.
    • On iOS, the audio is saved inside the app's private Documents folder.

We use your location to show nearby lectures relevant to your interests.

Your location data is used only when necessary and is not shared with third parties.

We send push notifications for important updates, messages, and reminders.

You can manage notification preferences in your device settings.

1.5 OTP Verification

We use your phone number for One-Time Password (OTP) verification to ensure secure login and account protection.

2. How We Use Your Information

  • Provide and improve app functionality.
  • Enable speech-to-text and translation services.
  • Help users personalize their profiles.
  • Show relevant nearby lectures.
  • Send notifications and verify users via OTP.

3. Subscription & In-App Purchases

Lecture offers auto-renewable subscriptions and in-app purchases for both Presenters and Attendees.

3.1 Subscription Details

3.1.1 For Presenters

Presenters can choose from three subscription plans, each providing:

  • Access to a specific number of supported languages for translation.
  • The ability to select languages for real-time Lecture translation.
  • A set number of minutes to use during Lectures.

Example:

A presenter on the Presenter Basic Plan gets 3 languages (e.g., English, French, and Spanish), and up to 5 hrs of service. When they deliver a Lecture in Arabic, the translation will be available in these three languages.

If the presenter runs out of minutes, they can purchase additional minutes through in-app purchases.

Free Trial:

New presenters are eligible for a 7-day free trial to explore all features before subscribing.

Pay-As-You-Go Option:

Presenters can also choose a Pay-As-You-Go model without a subscription. This allows them to pay a one-time fee to deliver a Lecture directly, with:

  • Up to 2 selected languages for translation.
  • Up to 3 hours of speaking time.

3.1.2 For Attendees

Attendees can subscribe to a monthly auto-renewable plan that provides credits, allowing them to:

  • Listen to Lectures in languages not originally supported by the presenter.
  • Use their credits to unlock translations on demand.

Example:

An attendee on the Attendee Basic Plan gets 160 credits. If they want to listen to a Lecture in a language not provided by the presenter, credits will be deducted accordingly.

If an attendee runs out of credits, they can purchase more through in-app purchases.

3.2 Auto-Renewal & In-App Purchases

3.2.1 Auto-Renewal Policy

Subscriptions automatically renew each month unless canceled.

Users can manage or cancel subscriptions via App Store or Play Store settings.

3.2.2 In-App Purchases

Additional minutes (for presenters) and credits (for attendees) can be purchased at any time.

Purchased minutes and credits remain in the account until fully used.

Additional In-App Purchases for Presenters:

Presenters can also purchase additional storage as an add-on. This extra storage allows them to save and archive their Lectures beyond the default storage limit provided in their plan.

Example:

A presenter may want to save past Lectures for future reference or offer them to attendees later for replay or download. If their included storage is full, they can buy more storage space through a one-time in-app purchase.

3.3 Refund Policy

Subscriptions are non-refundable once activated.

If you experience any issues with your subscription or have any concerns, please contact us directly at contactus@itsoureone.com, and we will assist you with any problems.

In-app purchases for additional minutes or credits are non-refundable once the transaction is completed.
