Draft — have a lawyer review before launch. Company details are placeholders.
1The agreement
These terms are an agreement between you and yourbrand for use of the yourbrand API and website. By creating an account or sending a request with a key, you accept them. If you use the API for a company, you confirm you can bind that company.
2Accounts and keys
You must be 18 or older, or the age of majority where you live if that is higher, to open an account or use the service; registration asks you to confirm it. An account belongs to one person. It needs no email, so if you lose both your password and your backup codes, you lose the account. Slips live in your browser's storage or the CLI; export them to keep a copy.
You are responsible for everything done with your keys. Keep them secret, rotate them if they leak, and don't embed them in client-side code. We may suspend a key we believe has leaked and will tell you on your dashboard when we do.
3Payment and credit
Usage is charged per token or unit at the prices on the pricing page when the request is made, and comes out of your credit. Plans are paid from your credit each month and lapse to pay-as-you-go when your balance can't cover them. You can instead have the payment processor charge a payment method each month, which ties that payment method to your account and significantly raises your traceability; your preset can forbid it. Requests that fail with a server error (5xx) are not charged. Nothing is refunded: see the refund policy.
4Acceptable use
The API is uncensored: it writes sexually explicit and graphic content when asked, and requests and outputs are checked only for what the law forbids, such as child sexual abuse material. A blocked request gets a 400 and isn't charged. Everything else is your responsibility. The acceptable use policy lists what the API can't be used for. Breaking it is grounds for immediate termination.
5Your content and outputs
You keep all rights to your inputs. To the extent we have any rights in outputs, we assign them to you. We don't store either, except a finished video, which is deleted an hour after it completes (see the privacy policy), so keep your own copies.
Outputs come from statistical models and can be wrong, outdated, or offensive. Check them before you rely on them.
6Availability
We aim for high availability and publish it on the status page, but pay-as-you-go use comes with no uptime guarantee. Models can be added, changed or retired; nothing breaking ships without a dated entry in the changelog. Notices go on the status page and your dashboard.
7Liability
The API is provided as is. To the extent the law allows, our total liability for any claim is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before it arose, and we are not liable for indirect or consequential loss. Nothing here limits liability that can't be limited by law.
8Termination
You can close your account at any time, which deletes everything about it. Unused credit is not refunded: you can export it as $5 slips instead, which also closes the account, and a remainder under $5 is lost. We can suspend or close accounts that break these terms or the acceptable use policy.
9Governing law
These terms are governed by the law of the country where yourbrand is registered, and disputes go to its courts, unless consumer law where you live gives you a right to use your local courts.
