Acceptable Use

This Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") governs what you can and cannot generate, upload, or distribute with Flint. It forms part of our Terms of Service. Violations may result in account suspension, termination, forfeiture of credits, and reporting to authorities or rights-holders.

About this policy

Flint is an AI video tool. Powerful tools require clear rules. This AUP applies to every account holder and to every piece of content generated, uploaded, or published through Flint. We apply it globally, regardless of where the content is ultimately seen.

Prohibited content

You must not use Flint to generate, upload, distribute, or exploit:

• Synthetic depictions of any identifiable real person (including political figures, celebrities, activists, public servants, and private individuals) without that person's documented, informed, specific, and revocable written consent.
• Non-consensual intimate imagery; any content that sexualises minors in any form.
• Content that harasses, defames, threatens, or bullies any person.
• Hate speech, or content that promotes violence or discrimination on grounds of religion, caste, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or nationality.
• Misleading advertising: unsubstantiated health, medical, or safety claims; fake testimonials; doctored before/after comparisons; drip-pricing; deceptive scarcity or urgency; misleading superlatives. Claims must comply with the FTC Endorsement Guides and equivalents.
• Content targeting minors for age-inappropriate categories (alcohol, tobacco, gambling, dating, financial products, prescription medicines).
• Political advertising or content about political candidates, parties, or elections, unless you comply with: applicable US federal, state, and platform political ad rules and state AI/deepfake laws (including Texas SB 751, California AB 730 / 2839 / 2655, Michigan, Minnesota, Washington, New York). Synthetic content depicting real political figures is prohibited outright without documented written consent.
• Voice cloning of musicians, performers, or public figures without consent, consistent with the Tennessee ELVIS Act and similar personality-rights laws.
• Content that impersonates another brand, misuses trade marks, passes off, or falsely suggests endorsement.
• Content promoting illegal products or services (unregulated crypto schemes, unlicensed gambling, controlled substances, weapons, endangered wildlife, counterfeit goods).
• Content that infringes intellectual property rights, including uploading copyrighted images, music, clips, characters, or likenesses that you do not own or are not licensed to use.
• Malware, phishing, or social-engineering content.
• Content that removes provenance metadata or AI-generated labels we embed in Output.

Prohibited conduct

• Using Output, prompts, or metadata to develop, train, fine-tune, evaluate, or benchmark a competing AI video, voice, or image model, including by distillation.
• Reverse engineering, scraping at scale, or bypassing rate limits, content filters, or safety controls.
• Sharing credentials or reselling the Service without written permission.
• Uploading personal data (including biometric data) without a lawful basis and full disclosure to the relevant data subjects.
• Attempting to discover or exploit security vulnerabilities, except via coordinated disclosure to support@flintads.com.
• Attempting to induce Flint to produce prohibited content through jailbreaking, prompt injection, or adversarial inputs.

Brand claim requirements

• All product claims in Output must be substantiated by you and comply with the advertising codes of the jurisdictions where the ad will run (primarily US: FTC Endorsement Guides).
• Health, wellness, and nutraceutical claims must carry required disclaimers and comply with FDA / FTC rules.
• Financial-product promotions must comply with SEC, FINRA, and state requirements.
• Beauty, food, fitness, and supplement claims must be truthful and supported by evidence.

Disclosure

• Enable AI-generated / altered-content toggles on every platform that provides them (Meta, Google, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, Instagram, Pinterest, X).
• Preserve provenance metadata (C2PA content credentials) we embed in Output.
• Include visible disclosure in caption or video where a reasonable viewer might otherwise believe the actor is a real person.
• Comply with all applicable mandatory disclosure laws. See our AI Content Disclosure Policy for specifics.

Enforcement

Violations may result in: immediate content removal; feature or format restrictions; temporary or permanent account suspension; termination; forfeiture of credits; reporting to the MoR, platforms, law enforcement, or affected rights-holders; and cooperation with valid legal process.
