Terms of Service

Last updated: October 12, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the Stage Ready iOS app and website (the "Service"), operated by Evan Vaughan ("we", "us"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

Eligibility

You must be at least 13 years old to use Stage Ready. If you are under 18, you may use the Service only with the permission of a parent or guardian, who agrees to these Terms on your behalf and is responsible for purchases made on your account.

Your account

You are responsible for keeping your sign-in credentials secure and for activity on your account. Provide accurate information and let us know at evm.vaughan@gmail.com if you believe your account has been accessed without permission. You may delete your account at any time in the app's Settings.

The Service

Stage Ready lets you practice pageant interviews with an AI-generated video interviewer and receive automated, rubric-based feedback. The interviewer is not a real person, and its questions, responses, and feedback are generated by artificial intelligence. Feedback is for practice only. It may be inaccurate or incomplete, does not represent the views of any pageant organization or judge, and does not guarantee any competition result. Stage Ready is not affiliated with or endorsed by any pageant system.

Subscriptions and practice minutes

  • Practice time is measured in minutes. New accounts may receive a short free trial. Paid monthly plans include a set number of practice minutes per billing period, as shown in the app at the time of purchase.
  • Auto-renewal. Subscriptions are purchased through Apple and renew automatically each month at the price shown in the app unless you cancel at least 24 hours before the end of the current period. Payment is charged to your Apple ID account at confirmation of purchase and at each renewal.
  • Cancellation. You can manage or cancel a subscription in your Apple ID account settings (Settings > your name > Subscriptions). Cancelling stops future renewals; you keep access until the end of the period you paid for. Deleting your Stage Ready account does not cancel an Apple subscription.
  • Unused minutes. Plan minutes are available for the billing period in which they are granted and do not roll over when the period ends, is cancelled, or is refunded.
  • Metering. Minutes are counted from when the interviewer appears on screen until the session ends. Sessions have a time limit and end automatically when it is reached or when your available minutes run out.
  • Refunds are handled by Apple under its policies. You can request one at reportaproblem.apple.com. Minutes from a refunded purchase are removed from your account.

Acceptable use

You agree not to:

  • use the Service for anything unlawful, harassing, hateful, or sexually explicit;
  • attempt to manipulate the AI interviewer into producing harmful content;
  • record, copy, or redistribute the interviewer's likeness or the Service's content;
  • reverse engineer, scrape, overload, or interfere with the Service or its security; or
  • share your account or resell access to the Service.

We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.

Your content

You own what you say during practice sessions. You grant us a limited license to process your audio, transcripts, and profile information only as needed to operate the Service, as described in the Privacy Policy.

Our content

The Service, including the interviewer, questions, rubric, feedback, and app design, is owned by us or our licensors. We grant you a personal, non-transferable license to use the app for your own interview practice.

Apple

These Terms are between you and us, not Apple. Apple is not responsible for the Service or its content and has no obligation to provide maintenance or support for it. Your use of the iOS app is also subject to Apple's Licensed Application End User License Agreement. Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these Terms and may enforce them against you.

Disclaimers

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that AI-generated content will be accurate.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid for the Service in the 12 months before the claim.

Changes and termination

We may change or discontinue the Service, or update these Terms. When we make material changes to these Terms, we will update the date above and, where appropriate, notify you in the app. Continuing to use the Service after changes take effect means you accept them. You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time.

Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Colorado, except where your local consumer protection laws give you the right to bring a claim where you live.
