Terms of use.

JaLingo is an educational game, not an official language certification or substitute for learning from Jamaican speakers and communities.

A living language

Jamaican usage and spelling vary by speaker, region, and context. Lessons are reviewed against named sources, but no short course can represent every valid form. Respectful corrections are welcome.

Accounts

You are responsible for keeping your sign-in secure. Do not access another person’s progress, automate fake reviews, manipulate rankings, evade a block, or interfere with the service.

Jamaica Pass

The First Day is free. The Jamaica Pass is a subscription at $4.99 a month or $29.99 a year, paid through Stripe on the web. Each account gets one 7-day free trial. A card is required to start it, and the first charge happens when the trial ends unless you cancel before then. The pass renews automatically each month or year until you cancel. You can cancel any time under Manage subscription on your account page, and deleting your account cancels the subscription.

Voice contributions

Contributors must be at least 18, record only their own voice, read the requested phrase, and accept the Community Guidelines. Do not submit music, background conversations, personal information, impersonations, unlawful material, harassment, or content you do not have the right to share.

By submitting a recording, you dedicate it under the CC0 1.0 Universal dedication. Where a complete waiver is not legally effective, you grant JaLingo and the public a perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, irrevocable license to use, reproduce, adapt, distribute, and publicly perform the clip. This lets a high-quality pronunciation remain useful as the community improves the dataset.

Moderation

JaLingo may hold or remove any contribution, rating, or account that threatens safety, rights, language quality, or ranking integrity. Reports are reviewed and repeated abuse may lead to account removal. Contact privacy@beyondvolatility.com to appeal a moderation decision.

Original and third-party material

Do not copy or resell JaLingo’s original game art, stories, or interface, except where an asset or adaptation, including one created by JaLingo, is supplied under an open license; that material remains available under its stated license. Third-party maps, references, and imported audio remain under their stated licenses and attribution requirements.

Availability

The service may change as language accuracy, safety, and reliability improve. We may rate-limit contributions, hold community features, or remove unsafe material without notice. Core guest learning remains available without contributing voice data.
