服务条款

生效日期:2026 年 10 月 3 日

本页先是中文版,后面是内容相同的英文版(English version)。

1. 关于本条款

本条款是你和听读ICU 运营者(一位个人开发者,在美国;下称「我们」)之间关于使用听读ICU(英文名 TingduICU,网址 https://tingdu.icu)的约定。使用本服务,即表示你同意本条款和《隐私政策》。

如果你未满 18 岁,请在家长或其他监护人同意下使用,并请他们阅读本条款。

本条款有中文和英文两个版本,意思相同,两个版本同等有效。如果你发现两者不一致,请告诉我们,我们会更正。

2. 服务说明

听读ICU 是一个网页版的英语听力练习工具:你把自己电脑里带英文字幕的视频拖进网页,视频只在你的电脑上播放;网页读出视频内嵌的英文字幕,我们的服务器用 AI 生成中文译文、注释和句子难度;你可以逐句精听、做排序练习并计分,使用生词本、查词、每日目标、未达标锁和家长口令等功能。

本服务目前不收费。

3. 账号与登录

  • 使用播放器需要登录:手机号 + 短信验证码,不设密码。一个手机号对应一个账号。目前只支持中国大陆和美国 / 加拿大的手机号。
  • 请只使用你本人的手机号,或你作为家长持有的手机号。不要用别人的手机号获取验证码。
  • 建议由家长持有账号,并用家长的手机号登录:忘记家长口令时,用来清除口令的验证码会发到这个号码。
  • 请保管好能收到验证码的手机和已经登录的设备;在共用电脑上用完请退出登录。

4. 短信条款(SMS)

  • 项目名称:听读ICU(TingduICU)验证码短信(登录、清除家长口令)。
  • 短信内容:一次性验证码,用于登录听读ICU,或在「忘记家长口令」时清除口令,10 分钟内有效。没有任何营销或推广内容。我们用自己的美国号码发给美国 / 加拿大号码的短信是英文的,例如:「TingduICU: Your login code is 123456. It expires in 10 minutes. Reply STOP to opt out.」发给中国大陆号码的短信由合作平台 Spug 推送助手(push.spug.cc,时巴克公司,中国)代发,用平台的固定模板,例如:「您的验证码是123456,10分钟内有效,如非本人操作请忽略。」短信签名是平台的,内容里没有「听读ICU」字样。
  • 如何同意:登录卡片的「获取验证码」按钮、学习设置里「忘记口令?」的「发验证码」按钮正下方,都写着短信同意说明和本条款、《隐私政策》的链接;点按钮即表示你同意 TingduICU 向这个号码发送验证码短信。每次成功发码,我们都会记下这次同意(同意说明的版本、时间等,见《隐私政策》3.1)。
  • 发送频率:按需发送(Message frequency varies)——只在你点「获取验证码」/「发验证码」后发送,每次请求发一条。
  • 费用:可能产生短信和流量费用(Message and data rates may apply)。
  • 退订与帮助:美国 / 加拿大号码回复 STOP 退订,回复 HELP 获取帮助。退订后,发验证码的那个号码就不能再给你发短信:你将收不到验证码,无法用短信登录,也无法用短信清除家长口令。用这部手机给发验证码的号码回复 START(或 UNSTOP)即可恢复接收。中国大陆号码的短信由平台代发、不能回复,STOP / HELP 只适用于美国 / 加拿大号码;不想再收到短信,不再点「获取验证码」/「发验证码」即可,需要帮助请联系下面的客服邮箱。
  • 客服:80youth@gmail.com。
  • 运营商免责:运营商不对短信延迟或未送达负责(Wireless carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages)。
  • 隐私:我们不会出售、出租你的手机号和短信同意(opt-in)信息,也不会把它们分享给第三方用于营销。详见《隐私政策》。

5. 你的视频和字幕

  • 视频由你自己提供,只在你的电脑上播放,我们不存储、也不分发视频。你需要自行确保视频来源合法,并有权使用这些视频和其中的字幕。
  • 你同意:为了提供服务,我们把字幕文字和从文件名整理出的片名发到服务器、交给 AI 翻译,并把字幕原文、片名以及生成的译文、注释保存为全站共用的缓存——其他用户打开内容相同的字幕时,会看到同一份译文,也可能看到这个片名。如果文件名里有你不想让别人看到的内容,请先改名再打开。
  • 请不要上传含有违法内容或他人个人信息的字幕。我们可以删除有问题的字幕缓存。

6. AI 翻译与难度

中文译文、注释、术语表和句子难度都由 AI 自动生成,可能有错误、遗漏或不恰当之处。它们只供学习参考,我们不保证准确,它们也不代表我们的观点。

7. 使用规范

你不得:用自动化程序批量调用接口或抓取数据;绕过或干扰验证码、限流、每日上限等限制;冒用他人的手机号;攻击或干扰我们的服务器;利用本服务做违法的事。违反的,我们可以限制或停用相关账号。

8. 免责声明与责任限制

本服务按「现状」和「现有」提供。我们会尽力保持服务正常运行,但不保证服务不中断、没有错误,也不保证数据永远不会丢失(我们每天备份,但备份也可能失败)。

在法律允许的范围内,我们不对因使用或无法使用本服务而造成的间接损失、学习效果或数据丢失承担责任。法律规定不能排除或限制的责任,不受本条影响。

TINGDUICU

Terms of Service

Effective date: October 3, 2026

This is the English version of the terms above (中文版). Both versions have the same content.

1. About these terms

These terms are an agreement between you and the operator of TingduICU (an individual developer in the United States; “we”, “us”) for using TingduICU (Chinese name 听读ICU, website https://tingdu.icu). By using the service, you agree to these terms and to our Privacy Policy.

If you are under 18, use the service with the permission of a parent or guardian, and ask them to read these terms.

These terms are provided in Chinese and English with the same meaning, and both versions are equally valid. If you notice a difference between them, please tell us and we will correct it.

2. The service

TingduICU is a web-based English listening practice tool. You drag a video with English subtitles from your own computer into the web page, and the video plays only on your computer. The page reads the embedded English subtitles, and our server uses AI to produce Chinese translations, notes, and sentence difficulty levels. You can listen sentence by sentence, do sentence-ordering (Sort) practice with scoring, and use the word notebook, word lookup, daily targets, the lock-until-target setting, and a parental PIN.

The service is currently free.

3. Accounts and sign-in

  • Using the player requires signing in with a mobile phone number and an SMS verification code. There is no password. One phone number is one account. Currently only mobile numbers from mainland China, the US and Canada are supported.
  • Use only your own phone number, or the number you hold as a parent. Do not request codes for someone else's number.
  • We recommend that a parent holds the account and signs in with the parent's phone number: if the parental PIN is forgotten, the code used to clear it is sent to this number.
  • Keep the phone that receives codes and your signed-in devices secure, and sign out when you finish on a shared computer.

4. SMS terms

  • Program: TingduICU (听读ICU) verification codes (sign-in and parental PIN reset).
  • What we send: one-time verification codes used to sign in to TingduICU, or to clear a forgotten parental PIN, valid for 10 minutes. No marketing or promotional content. Texts we send from our own US number to US and Canadian numbers are in English, for example: “TingduICU: Your login code is 123456. It expires in 10 minutes. Reply STOP to opt out.” Texts to mainland China numbers are sent on our behalf by Spug Push Assistant (push.spug.cc, operated by the company 时巴克, China) using the platform’s fixed Chinese template, for example: “您的验证码是123456,10分钟内有效,如非本人操作请忽略。” (“Your verification code is 123456. It is valid for 10 minutes. If you did not request it, please ignore this message.”). The sender signature belongs to the platform, so these texts do not contain the name TingduICU.
  • How you consent: an SMS consent notice, with links to these terms and our Privacy Policy, is shown directly below the “获取验证码” (Get code) button on the sign-in card and below the “发验证码” (Send code) button under “忘记口令?” (Forgot PIN?) in Settings. Tapping the button means you agree to receive verification code texts from TingduICU at that number. Each time a code is successfully sent, we keep a record of this consent (the version of the notice, the time, and similar details; see section 3.1 of our Privacy Policy).
  • Frequency: Message frequency varies. A message is sent only when you click “获取验证码” (Get code) or “发验证码” (Send code), one message per request.
  • Cost: Message and data rates may apply.
  • Opt out and help: for US and Canadian numbers, reply STOP to opt out and HELP for help. After you opt out, the number that sends our codes can no longer text you: you will not receive codes, cannot sign in by SMS, and cannot clear the parental PIN by SMS. To receive messages again, reply START (or UNSTOP) from that phone to the number that sent the codes. Texts to mainland China numbers are sent through the platform above and cannot be replied to, so STOP and HELP apply only to US and Canadian numbers; to stop receiving texts on a mainland China number, simply stop requesting codes, and for help, email the support address below.
  • Support: 80youth@gmail.com.
  • Carrier liability: Wireless carriers are not liable for delayed or undelivered messages.
  • Privacy: we do not sell, rent, or share your phone number or SMS opt-in information with third parties for marketing. See our Privacy Policy.

5. Your videos and subtitles

  • You provide the videos. They play only on your computer; we do not store or distribute videos. You are responsible for making sure your videos come from lawful sources and that you have the right to use them and their subtitles.
  • You agree that, to provide the service, we send the subtitle text and a title cleaned up from the file name to our server, have them translated by AI, and keep the subtitle text, the title, and the resulting translations and notes as a shared, site-wide cache. Other users who open identical subtitles see the same translation and may see that title. If a file name contains something you would not want others to see, rename the file before opening it.
  • Do not upload subtitles that contain unlawful content or other people's personal information. We may remove any subtitle cache entry that causes problems.

6. AI translations and difficulty levels

Chinese translations, notes, glossaries, and sentence difficulty levels are generated automatically by AI and may contain mistakes, omissions, or inappropriate wording. They are a learning aid only. We do not guarantee their accuracy, and they do not represent our views.

7. Acceptable use

You may not: call our interfaces or scrape data with automated programs; bypass or interfere with verification codes, rate limits, daily caps, or other limits; use someone else's phone number; attack or disrupt our server; or use the service for anything unlawful. We may limit or disable accounts that break these rules.

8. Disclaimers and limitation of liability

The service is provided “as is” and “as available”. We work to keep it running, but we do not guarantee that it will be uninterrupted or error-free, or that data will never be lost (we make daily backups, but backups can also fail).

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect losses, learning outcomes, or data loss arising from your use of, or inability to use, the service. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be excluded or limited by law.

9. Changes, suspension, and termination

  • We may change, add, or remove features at any time, and may pause the service temporarily for maintenance.
  • You may stop using the service at any time and ask us by email to delete your account and data, as described in the Privacy Policy.
  • If you break these terms, we may suspend or disable your account.
  • If we decide to shut down the whole service, we will try to give notice on the website in advance.

10. Privacy

See our Privacy Policy for how we collect, use, and keep information.

11. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. When we do, we will update the effective date on this page and show a notice on the website for important changes. Continuing to use the service after a change means you accept the updated terms.
