Clipbeat Acceptable Use Policy

1. What Clipbeat is for

Clipbeat is a tool for making music videos and other video content for your own audio. You upload audio you made or have the rights to, and Clipbeat helps you turn it into a video: synced lyrics, AI-generated scenes, camera motion, cuts on the beat, AI music and voice-overs, lip-synced singing shots, and an editor to finish it. You can star in your own video with your own face and voice. This policy applies together with our Terms of Service.

2. Use only your own content

• Use your own audio and material you have the rights to: songs, lyrics, photos, videos and recordings that you created or have permission to use.
• Do not upload other artists' songs or lyrics, or footage and images you have no permission to use.
• You are responsible for everything you upload, generate and publish with Clipbeat.

3. Your face and voice

"Me" selfies, saved characters, "My artist", lip-sync on your own face and animating your own photos are allowed under these rules. Clipbeat does not offer voice cloning: we do not create a copy of anyone's voice, and the singing in your video is the vocal of the song you upload.

• Only your own face and voice, or someone who agreed. Use your own face and voice, or the face or voice of another adult who has clearly agreed that you may use it in Clipbeat.
• Adults only. You and the person shown must be 18 or older.
• No celebrities or public figures. Never the face, likeness or voice of a celebrity, artist, politician or other public figure — even with their permission.
• No impersonation or deceptive deepfakes. Never make people believe a real person said, sang or did something they did not.
• Consent can be withdrawn. Deleting a saved character or your artist withdraws your consent; see section 7.

4. Prohibited content and uses

You must not use Clipbeat to create, upload or share:

• Deepfakes and impersonation — deceptive content that imitates a real person's face, body or voice, face swaps onto other people, or voice imitation of anyone who did not agree.
• Celebrities and public figures — their face, likeness or voice, in any form.
• Real people without consent — photos, videos or voice recordings of private individuals used without their permission.
• Minors — no photoreal images, video or voice of anyone under 18 (selfies, saved characters, artists, lip-sync or AI scenes), and no sexual, suggestive or exploitative content involving minors in any form. Children's songs use illustrated or 3D cartoon characters.
• Sexual content — nudity, pornography or sexually explicit material of anyone.
• Hate — content that attacks or demeans people based on race, ethnicity, national origin, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability or similar characteristics.
• Harassment, threats and violence — bullying, threats, glorification of violence or terrorism, or content that encourages self-harm.
• Copyright and trademark infringement — music, lyrics, artwork, logos or footage that you do not have the rights to.
• Deception — misleading political, election or news content, scams, spam, or removing or hiding AI-generated labels and watermarks.
• Illegal content — anything that breaks the law where you live or where it is published.

5. Lip-sync

Lip-sync makes the singer's mouth follow the vocal of your song. It works with Clipbeat's AI-generated characters and with your own face (a saved character or your artist). The rules in sections 3 and 4 apply to every lip-synced shot: only your own face or someone who agreed, never a celebrity or public figure, never a minor, never sexual content.

6. Automated safeguards

Clipbeat runs automated checks while it generates your video:

• Saved faces and artist photos are checked before they can be used: one person, an adult, no nudity, and no promotional photos, posters or screenshots of someone else. Photos that fail are refused.
• The AI Director plans original characters (or your own saved face) and is instructed not to put real people (celebrities, public figures or named private persons) or brand logos into prompts.
• Photoreal people in AI scenes are planned as clear adults; children appear only as illustrated or cartoon characters in children's songs.
• Drugs, self-harm, gore and weapons pointed at people are not shown directly; prompts describing them are rewritten into metaphor.
• Generated images are reviewed by an AI vision model. An image where a photoreal person looks under 18, or that shows drug use, is regenerated instead of being used.
• In the paid video engine, an AI review of each generated clip rejects clips with nudity or unsafe content (weapons pointed at people, drugs, self-harm, or a photoreal person who looks under 18).
• The AI provider's safety filter stays on for every image and video we generate and cannot be turned off. Images it flags as not safe for work are discarded, and you are not charged for them.

These checks are automated and can make mistakes. They do not replace your responsibility for what you create and publish, and we do not manually review every video.

7. Withdrawing consent and deleting your data

• Delete a saved character in Studio → Settings → Characters.
• Delete your artist in Studio → AI Director → My artist → Delete my artist.
• Or email hello@clipbeat.app to have any of your photos, recordings or consent records deleted.

Deleting always works, even if a feature is later switched off. Details are in the Privacy Policy (section 2a).

8. Reporting abuse

If you believe content made with Clipbeat breaks this policy — for example it shows you, imitates your voice or copies your work without permission — email hello@clipbeat.app with "abuse" in the subject and include the link to the content. You do not need a Clipbeat account to report. We review reports and may remove public links and Showcase entries, delete saved faces and artists, and suspend or terminate accounts that break this policy, as described in the Terms of Service.
