6. AI-GENERATED CONTENT

6.1 Nature of AI Content

The Service uses artificial intelligence technologies to generate stories, images, and audio ("AI Content"). Specifically:

• Story text is generated by Google LLC's Gemini API
• Story illustrations are generated by Black Forest Labs' FLUX Schnell model via Replicate
• Audio narration is produced by Inworld AI's text-to-speech service

6.2 No Guarantee of Accuracy or Appropriateness

AI-generated content is produced algorithmically and may occasionally contain inaccuracies, grammatical errors, or culturally inconsistent elements. We do not guarantee that any generated story will be factually accurate, that AI Content will always align perfectly with the entered topic, or that image generation will always accurately represent the story.

We continuously monitor output quality and apply content filters appropriate for the target age group, but cannot guarantee 100% accuracy or appropriateness in every case.

6.3 User Prompts

When a user enters a story topic or theme ("User Prompt"), that input is transmitted to third-party AI service providers for processing. Users must not include personal information, names of real individuals, or sensitive data in User Prompts. We are not responsible for the content of User Prompts.

6.4 Intellectual Property of AI Content

AI-generated stories, images, and audio produced through the Service are provided for educational use within the application. You may not reproduce, distribute, or commercialize AI Content outside the Service without our prior written consent. The intellectual property status of AI-generated content under Turkish and international law is evolving; we make no representations regarding ownership rights in AI Content.

6.5 Reporting Inappropriate Content

If a Student or School encounters AI Content that appears inappropriate, inaccurate, or harmful, please report it immediately to alacayiryener@gmail.com with the subject line "Content Report." We will review and, if necessary, remove the content within 5 business days.

7.2 Your Content

User Prompts submitted by Students remain the property of the School or Student. By submitting User Prompts, you grant us a limited, royalty-free license to process them solely to deliver the Service. We do not use User Prompts to train AI models or for any purpose other than story generation.
