Legal

A short summary of the rules. The published documents are the agreement. If this page and a document disagree, the document wins.

They cover every surface: the app, REST API, MCP, CLI and Agent Skills. There is no separate developer agreement. The Acceptable Use Policy and AI Disclosure are part of the Terms: break one, break the Terms.

You own what your keys and agents do

• Supervise. Give clear instructions. Watch actions and spend. Check outputs before you publish. Nobody at RiffAds reviews output.
• Give only the access needed. Reading only? Use a key without the generate or workflows scope, or a read-only MCP connection.
• Set limits. Every paid request needs max_credits. Owners and admins can add workspace and key caps. Caps don't replace supervision.
• Keep keys secret. Never in public code, browser code, shared docs or prompts. Never share, sell or publish one. Leaked? Revoke it now. Work already started can still finish and be charged.
• Watch for tricks. Hidden instructions in pages, files or messages can steer an agent. You are still responsible.
• Connected tools have their own terms. Your assistant or editor may keep prompts, scripts and download links. Check its terms.

Banned use

• Using agents to make policy-breaking content, to test the content checks, or to repeat refused requests.
• Getting around rate, spend, plan or seat limits.
• Scraping the site or bulk copying the actor or voice library. Use the API, MCP, CLI or Skills.
• Probing or load testing without written permission.
• Reselling or white labeling without a written agreement.
• Training a competing model on RiffAds or its outputs.

Content rules

Full list in the Acceptable Use Policy. What the checks catch: Content policy.

• Banned: sexualizing minors, sexual content, hate, harassment, violence, extremism, self-harm, illegal goods and services, scams, fraud, malware.
• Restricted ads: gambling, alcohol, nicotine, cannabis, medicines, supplements, weapons, financial services, dating.
• Honest ads: an AI actor is not a real customer, reviewer or doctor. Every claim must be provable. Election and IP rules apply.

Consent the product can't check for you:

• Actor from a real person's photo, or a cloned voice: written consent first.
• Never anyone under 18.
• Never a public figure without written consent.
• Keep a copy of every consent.

What you own

• Your content stays yours: scripts, prompts, uploads, voice samples, brand and product details. You license it to RiffAds only to run the service, including sending it to model providers.
• You own your outputs (versus RiffAds) as far as law allows, including paid ads and client work.
• Third-party model terms apply. Outputs are not guaranteed unique.
• Library actors and voices are not yours. You may use them in your outputs.

Enforcement

On a breach, or a likely one, RiffAds may:

• Block requests or remove content.
• Disable keys, connections or agent access.
• Limit features or spending.
• Suspend or terminate the workspace.
• Report illegal content to authorities where required.

Serious harm, legal risk or repeat breaches: right away, no notice. Think a decision was wrong? Write to the inbox named in the Acceptable Use Policy and say why.

Report abuse or misuse of a likeness

Write to the abuse inbox in the Acceptable Use Policy. Include:

• Your name and contact.
• The content and where you saw it.
• Which rule it breaks, and why.
• Likeness or voice: proof you are the person, or can act for them.
• Copyright or trademark: the work or mark, and proof you own it or act for the owner.

Never send a false report. Found child sexual abuse material? Don't download, copy or forward it. Report it to police or a child protection hotline.

Not legal advice. Your rules depend on where you are, where the ad runs, and which platform you use.
