Article 1 (Purpose)
These Terms govern the rights, obligations, and responsibilities between the operating company of Cinema Forest (the "Service"; company details are shown on the Business Information page, the "Company") and users of the AI-powered image generation pre-production tool and related services.
Article 2 (Definitions)
- Service: the web-based tool providing AI image transformation and generation features — Multi Angles, Multi Poses, Character Sheets, Upscaling, and others — based on images uploaded or created by users.
- User: a member who agrees to these Terms and uses the Service.
- Passes & Credits: a "Pass" is the purchasable right to use AI generation features; a "credit" is its consumption measure. Original definition — in-service usage credits consumed to use AI generation features.
- Output: images and other results generated by AI models at a user's request.
Article 3 (Accounts and Eligibility)
- Using the Service requires signing up with an email address or a Google account.
- Users must register with accurate information and are responsible for safeguarding their account credentials.
- Accounts may not be impersonated, transferred, or lent to third parties.
- Persons under the age of 14 may not use the Service.
Article 4 (Pass System)
- Credits are in-service usage rights, not cash-equivalent assets. Credits themselves cannot be redeemed for cash, transferred, or assigned.
- Credits are divided into free credits (sign-up, monthly, and subscription grants) and paid credits (purchased). Free credits are consumed first.
- Free credits reset monthly and do not roll over. Paid credits are valid for 3 months from the date of purchase.
- Refund rules: Cancellation and refunds of credit and subscription payments are governed by this Article and the Refund Policy. You may request a full refund (statutory withdrawal) within 7 days of payment if none of the credits granted by that payment have been used; partial use is handled per the Refund Policy. Refunds for purchases paid by card are, in principle, processed only by cancelling the card transaction (card sales cancellation).
- The Company may change credit grants, consumption rates, and policies with prior notice. No retroactive change will be applied to the detriment of paid credits already held.
Article 4-2 (Subscription Service)
- The Company offers subscription plans billed automatically each month; plan credits are granted upon each billing. Plan types, prices, and grant amounts are posted on the credits page.
- Subscription fees are charged automatically on each monthly billing date to the registered payment method. Users may cancel at any time in the Service; cancellation stops future renewals, and credits remain usable until the end of the paid period. There is no cancellation fee.
- Credits granted by a subscription are valid only for that billing period and do not roll over.
- If renewal payment fails 3 consecutive times, the subscription ends automatically.
- Withdrawal and refunds of subscription payments follow Article 4(4) and the Refund Policy.
Article 5 (Rights and Responsibilities for Uploaded Content)
- Users must upload only images for which they hold the rights or have obtained permission from the rights holder.
- Uploading any of the following is prohibited:
- images that infringe third-party rights, including copyright, portrait rights (right of likeness), publicity rights, or trademarks;
- images of others captured or collected without their consent;
- images that violate applicable law, including any content sexualizing minors.
- If uploaded content or Output based on it infringes a third party's rights, the user bears full legal responsibility. The Company is not liable absent willful misconduct or gross negligence.
- Upon receiving an infringement report or confirming a violation, the Company may suspend processing, delete the content, or restrict the account.
- Users confirm and agree to the rights requirements of this Article at sign-up; uploading an image constitutes a confirmation that the image satisfies these requirements.
Article 6 (Use of Output)
- Users may freely use lawfully generated Output within the scope of the Service's purpose. Users are responsible for verifying commercial usability and third-party rights in the Output.
- Whether AI-generated Output is protected by copyright depends on the laws and precedents of the relevant jurisdiction; the Company does not warrant that any rights arise in the Output.
- Users must not use Output to violate laws, infringe others' rights, or spread falsehoods (e.g., deepfakes).
- Retention of Output: Output is stored in the Company's cloud storage, with retention periods by membership type as follows. (a) Members holding a paid Pass: Output is retained throughout the Pass validity period (3 months from purchase) and deleted 30 days after the validity period ends. (b) Subscription members (where a subscription product is offered): Output is retained while the subscription is active and deleted 30 days after subscription termination (cancellation/expiry). (c) Free members: Output is retained for 30 days from creation. After the applicable period, Output is deleted and cannot be recovered. Please download important Output within the period. Copies stored in your browser are a display cache and are not guaranteed storage.
Article 7 (Prohibited Conduct)
Users must not:
- generate or attempt to generate unlawful content or content infringing others' rights;
- exploit vulnerabilities or obtain credits through abnormal means;
- disrupt Service operations through automated tools (bots, scripts) or mass/repeated requests;
- reverse-engineer or crawl the Service, or use its APIs without authorization;
- collect or use other users' account information;
- generate or attempt to generate synthetic content that sexually objectifies or sexualizes a real person's face or body (so-called deepfake sexual abuse material) — prohibited under Article 14-2 of the Act on Special Cases Concerning the Punishment of Sexual Crimes of Korea;
- generate election-related AI synthetic content (deepfake videos, etc.) prohibited by the Public Official Election Act of Korea;
- generate synthetic content impersonating a real person or organization or intended to deceive, or use the Service to spread falsehoods.
If conduct under items 6-8 (or an attempt) is confirmed, the Company may restrict use without prior notice and may report to and cooperate with law-enforcement authorities as required by law.
Article 8 (Nature of AI-Generated Output)
- The quality, accuracy, and consistency of AI output vary with the input image and model characteristics. The Company does not guarantee output of any particular quality.
- Identical inputs may produce different results, and regeneration may be needed to obtain a desired result. Credits consumed by successfully completed generations are not returned for subjective dissatisfaction with the output.
- If generation fails due to causes attributable to the Company (e.g., service failure), the credits are not deducted or are compensated.
- In accordance with applicable law, including Korea's Framework Act on Artificial Intelligence, the Company may mark Output as AI-generated (metadata, notices, etc.). Users must not remove, alter, or conceal such marks with intent to deceive.
Article 9 (Changes and Discontinuation of the Service)
- The Company may change or discontinue all or part of the Service, with prior notice of significant changes.
- Upon termination of the Service, unused paid credits will be settled in accordance with the Refund Policy.
Article 10 (Disclaimer)
- The Company is not liable for damage caused by force majeure, including natural disasters, telecommunications failures, and failures of third-party services (cloud or AI model providers).
- The Company does not intervene in disputes between users or between users and third parties and is not liable for resulting damage.
- To the extent permitted by law, the Company's aggregate liability is limited to the amount the user paid for the Service in the preceding 12 months.
- The Company has no general obligation to pre-screen or censor content users generate or use. The Company operates filtering systems to prevent harmful content but does not warrant their completeness; upon receiving a report of infringement or illegality, the Company fulfills its legal obligations by promptly reviewing and taking necessary measures such as deletion or blocking.
- Users bear full civil and criminal responsibility for disputes with third parties arising from content (including synthetic content) generated or used in violation of these Terms, and must indemnify the Company for any resulting damages.
Article 11 (Amendments)
- The Company may amend these Terms to the extent not in violation of applicable law.
- Amendments will be announced at least 7 days before the effective date (30 days for changes unfavorable to users), stating the effective date and the reasons.
Article 12 (Governing Law and Dispute Resolution)
- These Terms are governed by and construed under the laws of the Republic of Korea.
- The Company and users shall attempt in good faith to resolve disputes; failing that, suit may be brought before the court of competent jurisdiction under the Civil Procedure Act of Korea.
