Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of these Terms

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) are a binding agreement between you and the operator of ugcs.farm (“we”, “us”, or “ugcs.farm”). By creating an account, accessing the website, or using any feature of ugcs.farm (collectively, the “Service”), you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms together with our Privacy Policy and Disclaimer.

If you do not agree to any part of these Terms, do not use the Service.

2. The Service

ugcs.farm is a software tool that helps users analyse short-form reference videos and produce text prompts and reference stills tuned for third-party generative video models (such as Sora, Veo, Wan, and Kling). The Service does not itself render finished videos and does not host, distribute, broadcast, or monetise any content on a user’s behalf.

We make no representation that the Service is appropriate or available for use in any particular jurisdiction. You are responsible for compliance with local laws applicable to your use.

3. Your content, your rights — and your responsibilities

“User Content” means everything you submit to or process through the Service: source video clips, URLs you provide for ingestion, reference images, brand marks and logos, written instructions, prompt edits, generated stills, generated prompts, and any other material you upload or create using the Service.

3.1 You retain ownership

As between you and us, you retain all right, title, and interest in your User Content, including any intellectual-property rights you held before using the Service. We claim no ownership of your inputs or outputs.

3.2 You are solely responsible for clearing rights

You represent and warrant that, for every piece of User Content you submit, you either own the necessary rights or have obtained all required licences, consents, releases, and permissions to use that content with the Service and to authorise the outputs you produce. That includes, without limitation:

• Copyright in source video clips, images, audio, and any embedded third-party material — including footage downloaded from platforms such as YouTube, TikTok, or Instagram, even where the platform’s download UI permits it;
• Trademarks, trade dress, logos, and brand identifiers visible in uploaded references or used as replacement targets;
• Rights of publicity, privacy, and likeness for any identifiable person depicted in your inputs or outputs (model releases for character references; explicit consent for celebrity, athlete, or public-figure likenesses);
• Rights in any music, dialogue, or sound recording present in uploaded clips;
• Any consent, parental authorisation, or platform clearance required for content depicting minors (note: see Section 5 — minors are prohibited subjects in any AI-generated output produced through the Service).

3.3 Limited licence to us

You grant us a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, store, copy, transcode, transmit to our processing sub-providers, analyse, and display your User Content solely for the purpose of operating, improving, securing, and providing the Service to you. This licence terminates when you delete the relevant content or your account, except for backup copies that age out under our standard 30-day deletion window described in the Privacy Policy.

3.4 You are responsible for downstream use

The Service produces prompts and reference assets. Any video generated from those outputs is created by a third-party model provider, on infrastructure you choose, under that provider’s terms. You alone decide whether, where, and how to publish, distribute, advertise with, or monetise any output. You are responsible for compliance with the policies of any platform you publish to (TikTok, Instagram / Meta Ads Manager, YouTube, etc.), for required disclosures (including any AI-content labelling rules), and for advertising-law compliance in every jurisdiction you target.

4. Acceptable use

You agree that you will not use the Service to:

• Submit, generate, or distribute any content that infringes any copyright, trademark, patent, trade-secret, publicity, privacy, moral, or other right of any third party;
• Submit or generate content that depicts a real, identifiable person without that person’s explicit, documented consent — including celebrities, athletes, politicians, or other public figures;
• Submit, generate, or attempt to generate sexual content involving minors, non-consensual sexual content, content sexualising real individuals, content promoting self-harm, terrorism, or mass-violence, or any content that is unlawful in your or our jurisdiction;
• Submit content sourced from premium, paid, or DRM-protected services without holding a licence that authorises this specific use;
• Impersonate any person or entity, misrepresent your affiliation with anyone, or use the Service to commit fraud, deception, or harassment;
• Use the Service to produce political deepfakes, defamatory depictions, or content designed to deceive viewers about who said or did what;
• Reverse-engineer, decompile, scrape, mirror, or attempt to extract the source code, prompts, model weights, or training data of the Service;
• Probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of any system or network we operate; bypass our authentication, rate-limiting, or quota-control mechanisms; or interfere with the integrity or performance of the Service.

We may suspend or terminate any account that we reasonably believe has violated this section, with or without notice, and without refund.

5. AI-generated outputs and non-infringement

Generative AI models are statistical systems trained on large corpora. Outputs may inadvertently resemble copyrighted works, trademarks, or real individuals that we cannot identify in advance. Outputs are produced “as is” without warranty of originality, uniqueness, or non-infringement of any third-party right.

You are solely responsible for reviewing every output before any publication or commercial use, for clearing any third-party rights implicated in that output, and for the consequences of using it.

6. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the operator of ugcs.farm, our officers, directors, employees, contractors, and processors from and against any and all claims, demands, actions, liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, settlements, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising out of or related to:

• your User Content (inputs and outputs);
• your use of, or inability to use, the Service;
• your violation of these Terms;
• your violation of any third party’s rights, including intellectual-property, publicity, privacy, or contractual rights;
• any content you publish, distribute, or monetise that was produced with the help of the Service.

We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defence and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you agree to cooperate with our defence.

7. DMCA / IP takedown

We respond to credible claims of intellectual-property infringement made through the Service. If you believe your copyright or other IP right has been infringed by content processed through the Service, please email legal@ugcs.farm with: (a) identification of the work claimed to be infringed; (b) identification of the allegedly infringing material and where it appears or originated; (c) your contact information; (d) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorised; (e) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are the rights-holder or authorised to act on the rights-holder’s behalf; and (f) your physical or electronic signature.

We may remove allegedly infringing material, suspend or terminate repeat-infringer accounts, and notify the affected user. False or bad-faith claims may result in liability under applicable law.

8. Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, OR UNINTERRUPTED OPERATION. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT OUTPUTS WILL BE ACCURATE, ORIGINAL, FREE FROM ERRORS, FREE FROM INFRINGEMENT, OR SUITABLE FOR ANY PARTICULAR USE.

9. Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT WILL THE OPERATOR OF UGCS.FARM BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, GOODWILL, DATA, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE, EVEN IF WE HAVE BEEN ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.

OUR AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE FEES YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM AROSE OR (B) USD $100. SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF CERTAIN DAMAGES; IN THOSE JURISDICTIONS, OUR LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

10. Suspension and termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time from your dashboard. We may suspend or terminate your access at our discretion if we reasonably believe you have violated these Terms, if required by law, or if continuing to provide the Service is commercially impractical. The provisions of these Terms that by their nature should survive termination (including ownership, warranty disclaimers, indemnification, and limitations of liability) will so survive.

11. Changes to the Service or these Terms

We may change, suspend, or discontinue features of the Service at any time. We may also revise these Terms; if we make a material change, we will update the effective date at the top of this page and notify account holders by email at least 7 days before the change takes effect. Continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

12. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction of the operator's principal place of business, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. The courts of that jurisdiction will have exclusive jurisdiction over any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or the Service, except where applicable consumer-protection law gives you a non-waivable right to bring proceedings in your country of residence.

13. Miscellaneous

These Terms (together with the Privacy Policy and Disclaimer) constitute the entire agreement between you and us regarding the Service and supersede any prior agreements. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in effect. Our failure to enforce any provision is not a waiver of that provision. You may not assign these Terms; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
