Terms of Use

Welcome to Wi, Nou Ka Palé Kwéyòl (jwekweyol.com), a free website for learning Saint Lucian Kwéyòl. The site is run by an individual based in Saint Lucia (“we”, “us”). By using the site, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, please don't use the site.

Using the site

• The games and lessons are free to use for personal learning and fun.
• If you are under 13, please get a parent or guardian's permission first, and follow the tips in our Privacy Policy.
• If you create an account, keep your password to yourself. You're responsible for what happens under your account.

Be kind

Many of our players are children and families. When you choose a display name or use chat, voice notes or video in a multiplayer room, please don't:

• post anything rude, hateful, threatening, sexual or otherwise inappropriate,
• bully, harass or pretend to be someone else,
• share personal details like addresses, phone numbers or school names (yours or anyone else's),
• spam, advertise, or try to cheat, break or overload the site.

We may remove names, messages, scores or rooms, and block access, if we think these rules have been broken. To report a problem, email info@jwekweyol.com with the room code or player name.

AI portraits and credits

• AI portraits are for adults aged 18 and over. Only upload a photo of yourself, or of another adult who has agreed to it. Don't upload photos of children, or photos meant to embarrass, deceive or harm anyone.
• Each portrait uses 1 credit. If a portrait fails or the AI declines a photo, the credit goes back to your account automatically.
• Portraits are made by AI and may not look exactly like you. They are kept for 30 days, so download any you want to keep.
• Credit packs are priced in US dollars and paid through PayPal. Your credits are added as soon as PayPal confirms the payment.
• If a payment is refunded or reversed through PayPal, the credits from it are taken back off your account.
• For a refund of a pack you haven't used, email us within 14 days of buying it. Credits already used on portraits can't be refunded, but a portrait that fails always gives its credit back automatically.
• Credits have no cash value, can't be transferred, and don't expire while the feature is running. If we ever close the feature, we'll give notice, and you can ask us about unused paid credits.
• We may limit how many portraits can be made each day, pause the feature, or remove portraits that break these rules.

Our content

The games, lessons, guides, design and code on this site are our own work, and you may not copy or republish them without permission. The Kwéyòl vocabulary and example sentences come from the Saint Lucian Kwéyòl Dictionary (Crosbie, Frank, Leon & Samuel, Ministry of Education, Government of Saint Lucia, © 2001 SIL International) and belong to their owners. See About for how we use it.

Accuracy

We work hard to get the language right and base everything on the official dictionary, but mistakes can happen. The site is a learning aid, not an official reference. If you spot an error, please tell us at info@jwekweyol.com.

Advertising

The site is kept free by advertising from Google AdSense. We don't control the ads Google shows and aren't responsible for other websites that ads or links take you to. Please don't click ads unless you're genuinely interested. Our Privacy Policy explains how ads use cookies.

No guarantees

The site is provided “as is”. We may change, pause or remove games, features, scores or accounts at any time, and we can't promise the site will always be available or free of errors. As far as the law allows, we're not responsible for any loss or damage that comes from using the site.

Changes to these terms

We may update these terms from time to time. The date at the top shows when they last changed. If you keep using the site after a change, you accept the updated terms.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Saint Lucia.
