Acceptable Use Policy

Impersonation and fraud

Creating content that impersonates a real person, company or public body, or that is designed to deceive someone into transferring money, credentials or data. This includes fake endorsements, fake executive announcements, fake customer testimonials, and synthetic voice used to imitate a specific person.

Deceptive synthetic media

Presenting generated or manipulated footage as authentic recording of real events, or publishing synthetic depictions of real people without disclosing that they are artificial where the law requires it. Political and electoral content depicting real candidates or officials is prohibited outright.

Non-consensual likeness and voice

Using a real, identifiable person's face, body or voice without their permission. Being a public figure is not permission.

Sexual content and exploitation

Sexually explicit content of any kind, sexualised depictions of real people without consent, and — absolutely and without exception — any content that sexualises a minor. Accounts are terminated and reports made to the relevant authorities.

Illegal content and activity

Anything unlawful where you are or where your audience is: promoting or facilitating crime, trafficking, terrorism or violent extremism, or the sale of regulated goods you are not licensed to sell.

Harassment and hate

Content that harasses, bullies or threatens a person, or that attacks or demeans people on the basis of race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, disability, sex, gender identity, sexual orientation, or a similar characteristic.

Infringement

Uploading or generating material that infringes copyright, trademark, design rights, database rights, trade secrets or contractual restrictions. This includes competitors' product footage, licensed music you have no licence for, and fonts, stock imagery or UI kits used outside their terms.

Malicious and deceptive software content

Depicting or distributing malware, phishing pages, credential harvesting flows, or fake software update prompts, including as a 'demo'.

Misleading claims

Generating marketing content that makes claims you cannot substantiate, particularly health, financial, earnings or safety claims. Cutaway writes the words you steer it toward; the accuracy of them is yours.

Abuse of the platform

Circumventing credit limits, plan limits or export limits; sharing or reselling account access; automated scraping of the service; probing or attacking Cutaway's infrastructure; or uploading material designed to break the render pipeline.

• Have the rights to everything you upload, including UI you did not build, music, fonts, and any person in shot.
• Get permission before depicting a real person's likeness or voice.
• Review generated output before publishing it — check the facts and the claims.
• Keep the provenance metadata Cutaway writes into your exports intact.
• Disclose that content is artificially generated where the law or the platform you publish on requires it.

Cutaway does not pre-screen the content you generate. Enforcement is reactive: we act on reports and on problems we notice.

Depending on severity, we may remove content, disable a share link, suspend or terminate the account, and where the law requires it, report the matter to the authorities. For anything other than serious or illegal misuse, we will normally tell you what the problem is and give you a chance to put it right first.

Termination for breach of this policy does not entitle you to a refund of the remaining period, and does not release you from amounts already owed.

For copyright and trademark complaints specifically, follow the process in the Copyright and IP Policy — it asks for information those complaints need.
