Terms of Service

Last updated: February 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the CastProof platform ("Service"), available at castproof.com, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to all of these Terms, you may not access or use the Service. We reserve the right to update these Terms at any time. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

2. Service Description

CastProof is an AI-powered marketplace that connects Models — individuals who license their likeness — with Creators — individuals and businesses who generate rights-cleared AI content. The platform provides tools for likeness onboarding, consent management, AI content generation, watermarking, and payment processing.

3. User Accounts

  1. You must provide accurate, complete, and current information when creating an account.
  2. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials.
  3. You must notify CastProof immediately of any unauthorized use of your account.
  4. CastProof reserves the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these Terms.
  5. One person or entity may not maintain more than one account without prior written approval.

4. Model Terms

The following terms apply to users who register as Models on CastProof:

  1. Likeness Licensing. By onboarding to CastProof, you grant the platform a limited license to store, process, and facilitate the use of your likeness assets solely in connection with approved usage requests from Creators.
  2. Consent. All likeness usage requires your explicit, revocable consent. You may set restrictions on how your likeness is used and may revoke consent for future generations at any time.
  3. KYC Requirement. Models must complete a Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process before their likeness can be made available on the marketplace. This includes identity verification and proof of likeness ownership.
  4. Age Requirement. You must be at least 18 years of age to register as a Model. CastProof does not permit the licensing of minors' likenesses under any circumstances.
  5. Accurate Representation. You represent and warrant that you have the legal right to license your likeness and that your onboarding assets accurately represent your appearance.

5. Creator Terms

The following terms apply to users who register as Creators on CastProof:

  1. Subscription. Access to CastProof's generation tools requires an active paid subscription. Subscription tiers and pricing are detailed in our Fees & Payout Policy.
  2. Credits. Generations consume credits allocated by your subscription tier. Unused credits do not roll over between billing periods unless otherwise stated.
  3. Usage Rights. Upon receiving an approved usage request, you are granted a limited, non-exclusive license to use the generated content for the purposes specified in the request. You may not sublicense, resell, or redistribute generated content beyond the scope of the approved request without obtaining additional permissions.
  4. Compliance. You agree to use generated content in compliance with all applicable laws and the restrictions set by the Model whose likeness is depicted.

6. Content Licensing

  1. How Licenses Work. CastProof facilitates a licensing relationship between Models and Creators. Each usage request generates a unique, auditable license record stored on the platform.
  2. Usage Requests. Creators must submit a usage request specifying the intended use case, scope, and distribution channels. Models (or their configured auto-approval rules) must approve the request before content is generated.
  3. Approvals. Models may approve, deny, or set conditions on usage requests. Approved licenses are non-transferable and apply only to the specific content generated under that request.
  4. Watermarking. All generated content is digitally watermarked by CastProof for provenance tracking and enforcement purposes.

7. Payment Terms

  1. Subscription Fees. Creator subscription fees are billed monthly or annually in advance. Prices are listed in USD and may be updated with 30 days' notice.
  2. Model Payouts. Models earn a share of revenue generated from the use of their likeness. CastProof retains a 30% platform fee on all model earnings.
  3. Hold Periods. Payouts are subject to a hold period (typically 14–30 days) to allow for dispute resolution and fraud prevention.
  4. Payment Processing. All payments are processed through Stripe. By using CastProof, you agree to Stripe's Terms of Service.
  5. Taxes. You are responsible for any applicable taxes on earnings received through the platform.

8. Prohibited Content

You may not use CastProof to create, distribute, or facilitate any of the following:

  • Content depicting violence, gore, or harm to individuals.
  • Hate speech, harassment, or content promoting discrimination.
  • Adult or sexually explicit content generated without the explicit, documented consent of the depicted Model.
  • Content that impersonates another individual without authorization.
  • Content used for fraud, deception, or any illegal activity.
  • Content involving minors in any capacity.
  • Content that violates any applicable law, regulation, or third-party intellectual property rights.

Violations may result in immediate account termination and referral to law enforcement.

9. DMCA & Takedown Policy

CastProof respects intellectual property rights and complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). If you believe your likeness or copyrighted work has been used without authorization, please refer to our DMCA & Takedown Policy for instructions on filing a takedown request.

10. Intellectual Property

  1. The CastProof name, logo, and all related trademarks, service marks, and trade dress are the property of CastProof and may not be used without prior written permission.
  2. Models retain all rights to their likeness. CastProof's license is limited to the facilitation of the Service as described herein.
  3. Generated content is owned subject to the licensing terms agreed upon between the Creator and the Model through the platform.

11. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, CastProof and its officers, directors, employees, and agents shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising out of or related to your use of the Service, including but not limited to loss of profits, data, or goodwill.

CastProof's total aggregate liability to you for any claims arising from or related to these Terms or the Service shall not exceed the amounts you have paid to CastProof in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, express or implied.

12. Termination

  1. You may terminate your account at any time by contacting support or using the account settings.
  2. CastProof may suspend or terminate your account at any time for violation of these Terms, with or without notice.
  3. Upon termination, your right to use the Service ceases immediately. Existing approved licenses remain in effect per their original terms.
  4. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination (including Intellectual Property, Limitation of Liability, and Governing Law) shall survive.

13. Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

13A. Mandatory Arbitration & Class Action Waiver

PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.

13A.1 Agreement to Arbitrate

You and CastProof agree that any dispute, claim, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the use of the Service (collectively, "Disputes") will be resolved exclusively through final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you may assert claims in small claims court if your claims qualify.

13A.2 Arbitration Procedures

Arbitration will be administered by the American Arbitration Association ("AAA") under its Commercial Arbitration Rules then in effect. The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator in Wilmington, Delaware, or, at your election, remotely via videoconference. The arbitrator's decision will be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.

13A.3 Class Action Waiver

You and CastProof each agree that any Dispute will be resolved solely on an individual basis and not as a class action, collective action, representative action, or private attorney general action. The arbitrator may not consolidate claims of more than one person or entity, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding.

13A.4 Exceptions

Notwithstanding the above, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of a party's intellectual property rights, trade secrets, or likeness rights.

13A.5 Opt-Out

You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by sending written notice to legal@castproof.com within 30 days of your first acceptance of these Terms. Your notice must include your name, email address associated with your account, and a clear statement that you wish to opt out of this arbitration agreement.

15. General Provisions

15.1 Severability

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, such provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable, or if modification is not possible, severed from these Terms. The remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.

15.2 Force Majeure

Neither party shall be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under these Terms due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, pandemics, government actions, war, terrorism, labor disputes, power failures, internet or telecommunications failures, or failures of third-party service providers.
