The rules of the road for parents, teachers, and schools using Oyku. Short, fair, and written in plain language.
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) form a binding agreement between you and Edustack Technologies Private Limited, registered in India at B130, AFOCHS, Sainikpuri, Hyderabad, Telangana, India — 500094 (“Oyku”, “we”, “us”).
By creating an account or using the Oyku mobile application or website (the “Service”), you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to these Terms and our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, please do not use the Service.
Oyku is built for adults — parents, guardians, teachers, and authorised school staff — who participate in a child's school life. By using the Service, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and legally able to enter into this agreement.
If you are a parent or guardian, you represent that you have the authority to consent to a child's presence on Oyku, in line with the school's policies and applicable law. Children under the age of majority should not use the Service directly.
When you use Oyku, you agree not to:
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these standards, and we'll cooperate with schools and authorities where the safety of a child requires it.
Schools and teachers retain ownership of the classroom photos, videos, and captions they upload. They grant Oyku a worldwide, non-exclusive licence to host, display, and process that content for the limited purpose of operating the Service for their school community — including delivering memories to the right parent feed and producing the optional yearly photo book.
Parents are licensees of the memories they receive through the Service. You may view, react, comment within the Service, and receive a yearly bound photo book; you do not gain ownership of other people's photos or the right to redistribute them outside Oyku.
When a parent uploads an optional reference photo of their child, they grant Oyku a non-exclusive licence to use it solely for matching that child's memories inside Oyku. Parents may withdraw this consent and request deletion at any time.
Schools deploying Oyku for their community agree to a separate school agreement covering data handling, parent consent, opt-out lists, content approval, and the boundaries of public sharing. Where a school agreement exists, the school's instructions and consent workflow take precedence over generic user behaviour for content shared inside its classrooms.
Some Oyku features are free for parents while a child's school subscription is active. Optional add-ons such as the yearly printed photo book may be priced and offered through schools, parents, or Apple/Google in-app purchases as applicable. Pricing, delivery, and refund terms for printed products will be presented before any purchase.
Where the Service is provided free of charge, it is provided “as is” — without any commitment of paid support, uptime, or feature continuity beyond what is required by law or contract.
Oyku runs on top of cloud and platform services such as Apple, Google, AWS, and others. Their platform terms (App Store, Google Play, push notification services, cloud providers) also apply to your use of the Service. We choose vendors carefully and review their security, but their availability and behaviour are outside our direct control.
You can stop using Oyku at any time and delete your account from the in-app Profile screen, or by emailing privacy@oyku.app. See our Support page for the step-by-step.
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms, put a child or other user at risk, or where required by a school agreement, law, or court order. On termination, your access ends; certain school-level audit logs may be retained for the period required by applicable law.
The Service is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Oyku disclaims all implied warranties, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
Oyku will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data, or business interruption, arising out of or related to your use of the Service. Our aggregate liability for any claim arising out of or related to the Service is limited to the greater of (a) the amounts you paid Oyku in the twelve months preceding the claim, or (b) ₹5,000.
Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law (for example, liability for fraud or certain consumer rights).
We may update these Terms as Oyku evolves. We'll update the “Last updated” date at the top, and material changes will be highlighted in-app or by email/notification before they take effect. Continuing to use the Service after a change means you agree to the updated Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of India, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. The courts at Hyderabad, Telangana, India will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service, except where mandatory consumer-protection laws require otherwise.
