3. Trademark and Copyright

“Deutsch-Test für Zuwanderer”, “DTZ”, “telc” and “Goethe-Institut” and related marks are the property of their respective owners. This App does not claim rights to these marks. Their use is for descriptive/referencing purposes in the context of preparing for the Deutsch-Test für Zuwanderer.

5. User Data

You may not share your subscription.

Your information is handled according to our Privacy Policy.

We reserve the right to suspend access that violates these terms.

6. Intellectual Property

App Content: The practice exams, audio recordings, transcripts, model answers, photo prompts, word lists and translations are ours. You receive a limited license to use them for personal, non-commercial study.

Restrictions: Do not copy, modify, reverse-engineer, distribute, or sell any App content.

User Content: You retain rights to content you create — including any Schreiben text you write in the App, which stays on your device. You grant a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, and use such content in the App.

7. Educational Purpose and Self-Assessment

The App is a study tool for the Deutsch-Test für Zuwanderer. It does not guarantee any certification or exam result, and it is not itself an exam. Actual exam performance depends on multiple factors.

Schreiben and Sprechen are marked by you, against the criteria and the model answer the App supplies. Those marks, the A2 or B1 verdict per section and the certificate verdict shown on the results screen are estimates produced by this App for practice. They are not an official assessment, they do not bind any examiner, and they say nothing about how an official DTZ sitting would be graded.

8. Disclaimers

The App is provided “AS IS”:

  • No express warranties
  • No guaranteed accuracy, completeness, or availability
  • No liability for damages from use
  • Not a substitute for official DTZ preparation materials, an integration course, or a registered sitting of the test
  • Not affiliated with any certification body

9. Limitation of Liability

To the extent allowed, the developer is not liable for indirect, consequential, or incidental damages related to the App. In no event shall our total liability exceed the amount you paid in the 12 months preceding a claim.

10. Termination

You may stop using the App at any time.

We may terminate access for violations of these terms.

On termination, your license ends and you must stop using the App.

11. Modifications to Terms

We may change these terms. Changes are effective upon posting. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.

12. Governing Law

These terms are governed by Turkey laws, without conflict-of-law provisions.
