1. Purpose
These terms of use (ToU) govern the use of the Pictoflow service, accessible via the web and mobile application, published by Timothée Miminoshvili, sole proprietor (trade name TEL-MI Labs).
Pictoflow is a visual organization tool, not a medical device: it does not replace support from a professional.

- User: Any person using the Service
- Account: The user's personal space
- Child profile: The profile that an account holder creates, within their account, for a child they support
- Content: Cards, images and data created by the user
3. Access to the service
3.1 Registration and access without an account
- The Service can be tried without an account: the data created then stays on the device only and is never sent to our servers; it disappears if the browser data is cleared
- Creating an account makes it possible to find one's data on several devices; it is reserved for adults
- The user must provide accurate and up-to-date information

- By creating a child profile, the user declares that they hold parental authority over this child, or act with the agreement of the person who holds it (professional, relative or carer)
- The user only enters what is useful to the child: a nickname is enough, a photo is never required
