By using the Shelvy app or getshelvy.app, you agree to these terms. Please also read section 13 โ it applies to every download from the App Store.
Shelvy is operated by Rodion Sarakuz, a private entrepreneur (ะคะะ) registered in Ukraine.

"We", "us" and "Shelvy" mean the above. "You" means the person using the service.
You must be at least 13 years old. Where the law of your country sets a higher minimum age for using an online service without parental consent, you must have reached that age, or your parent or guardian must consent and accept these terms on your behalf. We do not knowingly collect information from children below that age. If you believe a child has created an account, write to us and we will delete it.
You need an account, created through Sign in with Apple or Google. Keep access to it secure โ actions taken through your account are treated as yours. One account per person, and accounts are not transferable. Information you give us should be accurate.
The core of Shelvy is your catalog: the photos you add, the dolls you record, and the details you enter about them โ organized, stored, and available to you.
On top of that, Shelvy offers automated helper features: recognising dolls in your photos and estimating their market value. These depend on third-party data sources and providers we do not control. They are provided "as is" and on a best-effort basis, and may be inaccurate, temporarily unavailable, degraded, changed, or discontinued. Shelvy also shows reference information about doll releases โ names, lines, years, reference images and per-brand checklists โ so you can confirm what you own and see what a line includes. This information is compiled from public sources (see section 9) and may be incomplete or contain errors.
Price estimates are automated calculations based on public marketplace data. They are not appraisals, not financial or investment advice, and not a guarantee that a doll can be bought or sold at any price. Decisions you make on the basis of an estimate are yours. Recognition and pricing are not the whole of Shelvy. If they change or go away, your catalog remains yours; section 10 explains what happens then.
You keep ownership of the photos and information you add.
You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free licence to store, process, adapt and display your content in order to run the service for you, to develop and improve recognition, identification and pricing quality, and to keep the service secure. We do not sell your content and do not use your photos for advertising.
Corrections and feedback you give โ edits to identifications, conditions, prices, reports about missing catalog entries โ may be retained after your account is deleted, but only in de-identified form, with the link to your account removed. The licence above continues for that de-identified material.
If you send us suggestions about Shelvy, we may use them freely and without obligation. Only add photos you took yourself or have the right to use. Content removed following a valid infringement notice (section 9) may not be re-uploaded.
If you share a collection card, video or other Shelvy output outside the app, you are choosing to publish that content, including any prices on it.
How we handle personal data is described in our Privacy Policy.
You can delete your account at any time in the app (Profile โ Account โ Delete account). You can also ask us for a copy of your catalog data by emailing [email protected], and we will provide it in a commonly used format.
Some features require a paid subscription, Shelvy Pro, which is offered as a monthly plan and a yearly plan. The current price, the plan name and the exact billing period are shown in the app before you buy and on your App Store receipt.
Subscriptions are sold and billed by Apple through your Apple ID and renew automatically. Your account is charged for renewal within 24 hours before the current period ends, unless you cancel at least 24 hours before that. Cancelling stops future renewals; the period you have already paid for runs to its end.
Manage or cancel your subscription in your App Store account settings. Refunds are handled by Apple under Apple's terms โ we cannot issue them ourselves.
We may change subscription prices or what a plan includes. Changes never affect a period you have already paid for, and Apple will ask for your consent before charging a higher price on renewal.
If your subscription ends, your catalog stays. You lose access to paid features; information already saved on your dolls remains visible to you unless you delete it.
You can add as much of your collection as you like โ we do not cap how many dolls or photos you add. How quickly items are recognised and priced depends on your plan and on current capacity โ these features run on paid third-party services, so they are processed in order and at a steady daily rate per account. Items above that rate wait in a queue and are processed automatically over the following days. Nothing is lost and you do not need to do anything. We may change these rates as the service evolves.
We may queue, slow down, or decline processing for use that is not a person cataloguing their own collection โ for example scripted or automated uploads, processing on someone else's behalf at scale, or volumes far beyond normal collecting. If your collection is genuinely large and the standard pace does not work for you, contact us at [email protected] and we will see what we can do.
Don't upload unlawful content or content you have no right to use. Don't attempt to disrupt, overload, probe or reverse-engineer the service. Don't scrape it or access it by automated means. Don't resell or redistribute Shelvy's catalog or price data as a data product. Don't use Shelvy to infringe anyone's rights.
Barbie, My Scene, Monster High, Ever After High, American Girl, Disney Princess, Bratz, L.O.L. Surprise!, L.O.L. Surprise! O.M.G., Rainbow High, Shadow High, and all other doll names, series names, logos and characters are trademarks of their respective owners. Shelvy is an independent tool for collectors and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, sponsored by or connected to Mattel, Inc., MGA Entertainment, Inc., The Walt Disney Company or any other rights holder. Brand, line and character names appear in Shelvy as factual descriptions of the dolls you catalog. The brand badges shown in the app are original artwork created for Shelvy and are not the manufacturers' logos. Shelvy's catalog is compiled from public sources, including collector wikis and fan-maintained reference sites, and from public marketplace listings. Reference images may belong to third parties; they are shown as reduced-size thumbnails, attributed to their source where available, and used solely to identify dolls. We do not sell, license or otherwise distribute them and claim no rights in them.
We respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement and, in appropriate circumstances, terminate the accounts of repeat infringers. How to send a notice or a counter-notice, the contact details of our designated copyright agent, and how to report a trademark concern are set out in our Copyright & Content Policy at getshelvy.app/copyright. Copyright and trademark matters go to [email protected]; everything else to [email protected]. If you own a reference image and would simply prefer it not appear in Shelvy, an email with a link or the doll's name is enough โ no formal notice is needed.
Shelvy links to third-party marketplaces such as eBay so you can see comparable listings. We don't operate those sites, don't verify listings, and earn no commission from them.
We do not guarantee that Shelvy, or any particular feature, will be available without interruption or error. We may change, suspend or discontinue features โ including recognition and price estimates โ where a third-party source becomes unavailable or too costly, or where we decide a feature no longer makes sense.
If a feature you are paying for becomes permanently unavailable, you can cancel your subscription and request a refund from Apple, and you can ask us for a copy of your data under section 5. Nothing here limits the rights you have as a consumer under the law of your country.
If we discontinue Shelvy altogether, we will give notice in the app and reasonable time to retrieve your data.
You can stop using Shelvy and delete your account at any time in the app. We may suspend or terminate an account that breaches these terms, that repeatedly infringes others' rights, or where the law requires it; where reasonable, we will say why and give you a chance to respond. Sections 4, 9, 12, 13 and 14 survive termination.
Shelvy is provided "as is" and "as available". To the extent permitted by law, we exclude implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and accuracy of results.
We are not liable for the accuracy of identifications, price estimates or catalog information, for decisions you make in reliance on them, for the content, prices or conduct of third-party marketplaces, or for loss caused by factors outside our reasonable control.
To the extent permitted by law, our total liability for any claim connected to Shelvy is limited to the amount you paid us for the service in the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.
None of this limits liability that cannot be limited by law, including for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for your mandatory consumer rights. If you are a consumer in the EU or the UK, your statutory rights regarding digital content and services apply in full.
These terms are between you and us only, not with Apple, and Apple is not responsible for the app or its content.
You are granted a non-transferable licence to use Shelvy on Apple-branded devices that you own or control, as permitted by the Usage Rules in the App Store Terms of Service. We, not Apple, are solely responsible for maintenance and support. Apple has no obligation to provide either.
We are responsible for any warranties not effectively disclaimed. If Shelvy fails to conform to an applicable warranty, you may notify Apple and Apple will refund the purchase price of the app to you; to the maximum extent permitted by law, Apple has no other warranty obligation.
We, not Apple, are responsible for addressing any claim by you or a third party relating to Shelvy, including product liability claims, claims that Shelvy fails to meet a legal or regulatory requirement, and claims under consumer protection or privacy law. We, not Apple, are responsible for investigating and resolving any third-party claim that Shelvy infringes intellectual property rights.
You represent that you are not located in a country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties.
You must comply with applicable third-party terms when using Shelvy.
Apple and its subsidiaries are third-party beneficiaries of these terms and, upon your acceptance, have the right to enforce them against you.
These terms are governed by the law of Ukraine, and disputes are subject to the courts at the place of our registration. If you are a consumer, this does not deprive you of the protection of mandatory provisions of the law of the country where you live, and you may also bring proceedings in the courts of that country.
Before going to court, please write to [email protected] โ most issues are faster to resolve directly.
We may update these terms. If a change materially affects your rights, we will announce it in the app before it takes effect. Continued use after that means acceptance; if you don't accept, you can delete your account.
If a provision is unenforceable, the rest stays in force. These terms, the Privacy Policy and the Copyright & Content Policy are the entire agreement between us about Shelvy. You may not transfer your rights under them; we may transfer ours to a successor who takes over the service, with notice to you. Neither of us is liable for failures caused by events outside reasonable control. Not enforcing a term once does not waive it. These terms are written in English, and the English version governs.
