Terms of Service

1. Agreeing to these Terms

By tapping Get Started, or Agree & Continue when we update these Terms, you agree to them. If you do not agree, you must discontinue use of the app.

2. Who can use the app

The app is intended for adults, such as nursing students and graduates. You must be at least 18 to use the app or create an account.

3. What the app is

English for Nurses is an occupational-English app for nurses and nursing students. It teaches practical English for clinical work through clinical vocabulary, concepts and workplace communication. It is not a general-English course or clinical training. Its purpose is to make the language of nursing approachable and useful at work, including for learners at an earlier stage of learning English.

• It is not medical advice, clinical training or a substitute for professional judgment.
• Content, including drug and brand names, is for language learning, not a clinical reference. Drug and brand names may vary by country and change over time. For patient care, medication or professional decisions, use current official clinical references and your institution's guidance.
• We do not guarantee exam results or employment.

4. Accounts

An account is optional. If you create one, it is for you alone. Do not share it or create one for someone else. You sign in with your email address and a one-time code; we do not use passwords. Keep your email account secure, because anyone who can read that email can sign in to your account.

5. Friends

Friends is invite-only. You connect using a friend code, and each request must be accepted. You can remove a friend or refresh your friend code at any time. Accepted friends can see your profile and selected learning progress and activity, as described in our Privacy Policy.

6. Acceptable use

Use the app lawfully and respectfully. Do not use it fraudulently, misuse or disrupt it, or violate anyone's rights.

We may restrict or suspend access to an account or the app when reasonably necessary to protect users, the app or our rights. We may do so without prior notice where circumstances require.

7. Premium and offers

Premium is sold as 6-month and 1-year passes. A pass is a one-time purchase: it does not renew automatically and is not an auto-renewing subscription. If you buy a pass while another is active, the new time is added after the current pass ends. Prices are shown in the Apple App Store or Google Play. We may change prices for future purchases; a price change does not affect passes you have already bought. We may occasionally offer promotional prices to some users for a limited time.

Payment, refunds and receipts are handled by Apple (App Store) or Google (Google Play) under their terms. We do not receive your card or payment details. Except where applicable law or store policy provides otherwise, purchases are non-refundable. Refund requests must be made to Apple or Google under their policies. We do not process refunds directly. If Apple or Google refunds or reverses a purchase, the pass ends.

Premium removes ads and unlocks specialty topics. A pass belongs to the Apple or Google account that bought it and, once you sign in, to your account in the app. You can restore it on any device signed in to the same Apple or Google account with Restore purchases, or use it on any phone, including one that uses the other store, by signing in to your app account. Signing in is optional; you do not need an account to buy a pass.

If you delete your account, your pass is not cancelled. It stays with the Apple or Google account that bought it and comes back with Restore purchases. See Delete your account for details.

8. Referral program

You may share your referral code with others. When someone redeems your code, you and that person each receive 7 days of Premium. There is no limit to how many people can redeem your code.

You need an account to redeem a referral code. Each account can redeem one referral code, ever, and only before anyone has redeemed its own code. Each device can be used to redeem one referral code, and a code can't be redeemed on a device its owner has used. Referral codes expire after 7 days and are replaced with new ones.

Referral days are used only when no paid pass is active. During a pass, they wait and start after it ends.

Referral days have no cash value, cannot be transferred or exchanged, and are lost if you delete your account. We may change or end the referral program, and may withhold or remove referral days we reasonably believe were obtained by abusing the program (for example, through fake accounts or manipulated devices), subject to applicable law.

9. Content and reports

The app and its content belong to LightCraft Software, LLC or its licensors. We give you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to use the app for your own learning while you follow these Terms.

If you send us a report or comment, you grant us a royalty-free, worldwide, perpetual, non-exclusive license to use and adapt it to improve the app. Please do not include personal or sensitive information in comments. A report does not guarantee that we will change content or take action.

10. Stores, ads and other services

Apple App Store and Google Play terms apply to purchases and downloads through their stores. If you downloaded the app from the App Store, Apple's Standard EULA also applies.

Outside the EEA, UK and Switzerland, the free app may show Pangle (ByteDance) ads unless you have Premium. See the Privacy Policy for information about ads and the other services we use.

11. Changes and ending use

We may update these Terms. We will ask you to accept a new version before you continue using the app where required. Previous versions remain available on this site.

We may add, update, replace, reorganize, remove or make available without charge individual Premium topics, units, lessons and other content. We do not guarantee that any particular item will remain available, and changes to individual items do not by themselves qualify for a refund, except where required by applicable law or store policy. During an active paid period, Premium will continue to provide ad-free access and a distinct selection of Premium-only content.

We may suspend or discontinue individual features, including Friends and other social features. If we decide to permanently shut down the app, we will stop selling Premium and give at least 30 days' notice. If you have an active Premium period, your core Premium access will continue until it ends, unless prompt action is needed for security, legal or technical reasons. Any refund rights remain subject to the applicable store's policies and applicable law.

You can stop using the app at any time by deleting your account and uninstalling the app.

12. Disclaimers and liability

To the extent the law allows, the app is provided “as is” and “as available.” We work to keep it accurate and available, but do not promise it will always be error-free or available.

To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss, and our total liability is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before a claim. This does not limit liability for gross negligence, intent, death or injury, or any right that cannot be waived.

13. Governing law and disputes

Michigan law governs these Terms, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Nothing in these Terms takes away mandatory consumer protections that apply where you live.

Before starting formal proceedings, please contact us and try to resolve the issue with us for 30 days. You may also bring a claim in the courts or consumer dispute body where you live where applicable law allows.

14. Other terms

If a provision of these Terms is unenforceable, the remaining provisions will continue to apply, except where applicable law requires otherwise. We may transfer these Terms if the app or its business is transferred; we will notify you where the law requires it. A transfer will not reduce rights you have under these Terms or applicable law.
