How to read this page

Each section quotes the Terms of Service word for word. The quoted text is what applies. If this page and the Terms ever differ, the Terms win.

Section 6.1, your inputs

Terms, 6.1 Your inputs: You may provide prompts, scripts, reference images, audio, and other material to the Service (“Inputs”). You confirm that you own or have all rights needed to use your Inputs this way, and that they do not violate any law or any third party’s rights, including intellectual property, privacy, and publicity rights.

In plain words: everything you upload or type in has to be yours, or something you hold the rights to use. It also cannot break the law or step on anyone else’s rights.

Section 6.2, who owns what you generate

Terms, 6.2 Ownership of generated assets: Subject to these Terms and to the rights of third parties, and as between you and AvatarFactory, you own the avatars, personas, scripts, images, voices, and videos generated through your account (“Generated Assets”), and you may use them for personal and commercial purposes.

In plain words: between you and us, the avatars and videos from your account are yours, and you can use them for personal and commercial work. That ownership is still subject to the Terms and to anyone else’s rights.

Section 6.3, the license you give us

Terms, 6.3 License to AvatarFactory: You grant AvatarFactory a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, and transferable license to host, store, use, reproduce, modify, adapt, publish, publicly display, distribute, and create derivative works of your Inputs and Generated Assets, including to operate, maintain, and improve the Service, to train and improve our systems and models, and for marketing, showcase, and promotional purposes. This license survives the closure of your account. AvatarFactory has full permission to use any asset generated on the Service.

In plain words: you keep ownership, and you also give AvatarFactory a broad license you cannot take back. It covers hosting, changing, publishing and building on your inputs and assets, training our models, and marketing, and it stays in force after your account closes.

Section 6.4, what AI output is

Terms, 6.4 Nature of AI output: Generated Assets are produced by AI models. Output may be inaccurate, incomplete, or similar to output generated for other users, and we do not guarantee that Generated Assets are unique, free of third-party rights, or fit for any particular purpose. Any resemblance between a generated avatar and a real person is coincidental unless you deliberately created it, which is subject to the Acceptable Use rules below. You are responsible for reviewing Generated Assets before you use or publish them.

Section 6.5, moderation

Terms, 6.5 Moderation: We may review, remove, or disable content that violates these Terms or applicable law, and we may suspend accounts involved in violations. We are not obligated to monitor content.

Section 7, acceptable use

Terms, 7. Acceptable Use: You agree not to use the Service to:

Create an avatar, voice, or video of a real, identifiable person without that person’s documented consent.

Deceive, defraud, or mislead others, including impersonation, scams, fake endorsements, or presenting AI-generated content as a real person’s statement.

Circumvent laws or platform rules that require disclosure of synthetic or AI-generated media. You are responsible for complying with such disclosure requirements wherever you publish.

Create sexual content involving minors or content that sexualizes minors in any way. This is absolutely prohibited, will result in immediate termination, and will be reported to the relevant authorities.

Create or distribute content that is unlawful, defamatory, harassing, hateful, or that infringes intellectual property, privacy, or publicity rights.

Violate the acceptable use policies of our payment providers or the rules of the card networks in connection with anything you sell or promote using the Service.

Upload malware, probe or disrupt the Service, scrape it, reverse engineer it, or access it by automated means outside the interfaces we provide.

Circumvent credit limits, plan limits, or billing, or share, resell, or white-label the Service without our written agreement.

Violations may result in suspension or termination of your account without refund, in addition to any other remedies available to us.

In plain words: a real person’s likeness or voice needs that person’s documented consent, and you are the one who has to hold that document. Your own face is the one case where the consent is yours to give. For anyone else, get it in writing before you upload anything.

Warning: A violation can end your account without a refund.

For the wider question outside our Terms, disclosure rules and what regulators expect, read are AI influencers legal.

Section 8, other platforms

Terms, 8. Third-Party Platforms and Services: The Service relies on third-party AI providers to generate media and can connect to third-party platforms, for example social networks where you publish content. Your use of any third-party platform is governed by that platform’s own terms, and you are responsible for complying with them, including their rules on AI-generated content. We are not responsible for third-party platforms or services, their availability, or their actions, including removal of your content or restriction of your accounts on those platforms.

Terms, 10. Copyright Complaints: If you believe content on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice to the contact address below with: identification of the work, the location of the allegedly infringing material, your contact details, a statement of good-faith belief that the use is unauthorized, and a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and you are authorized to act for the owner. We may remove reported content and terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

The contact address in the Terms is Support@AvatarFactory.IO. Send the five items above in one email, because we need all five before we can act on a notice. A likeness or consent complaint goes to the same address with a link to the content.
