Acceptable Use Policy

What you may and may not do on InfluencerForge.app. Provided for transparency — this is general information, not legal advice.

1. General Principle

InfluencerForge.app is a studio for creating fully synthetic AI influencer content. All models trained and content generated on the platform represent exclusively synthetic, non-real persons who are 18 years of age or older.

Use of the platform is permitted only for lawful purposes and in compliance with these guidelines. By using the platform you confirm that you have read and accepted these guidelines.

2. Prohibited Content

The following content is strictly prohibited on InfluencerForge.app. Violations will result in immediate account suspension and may carry criminal consequences.

Absolutely prohibited — no exceptions
  • Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) — zero tolerance: No content depicting or sexualizing minors in any form, including AI-generated, cartoon, "virtual," or age-regressed depictions, regardless of disclaimer. Suspected CSAM is reported to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC CyberTipline) and law enforcement; the account is terminated immediately and evidence is preserved.
  • No minors, period: No personas that are, depict, or appear to be under 18 years of age, in any context.
  • Real, identifiable people without documented consent: No training or generation based on the likeness, face, voice, or name of a real, identifiable individual — celebrity, public figure, or private person — without their explicit, documented consent.
  • Non-consensual intimate imagery (NCII): No sexual or intimate depictions of any real person created or shared without that person's consent. See our dedicated NCII takedown process below.
  • Deepfakes for fraud, defamation, or impersonation: No deceptively realistic replication of the identity, face, or voice of any real living or deceased person for purposes of deception, fraud, defamation, or impersonation.
  • Hateful, illegal, or harassing content: No content that violates applicable law, glorifies violence, incites hatred, or discriminates against or harasses persons based on origin, gender, religion, sexual orientation, or any other characteristic.
  • Infringement of trademark or copyright: No use of content, logos, brand names, or other protected material without the appropriate authorization.
  • Circumventing safeguards: No attempting to bypass, jailbreak, or disable content-safety or age-gating mechanisms.

Adult-content boundary

Because the platform permits mature themes for adult users, lawful adult content is permitted only for fully fictional, non-identifiable synthetic personas, gated to users who are 18 or older. It is never permitted where it involves real or identifiable people, minors, non-consensual intimate imagery, or any content described as absolutely prohibited above.

This list is not exhaustive. We reserve editorial discretion to remove content or restrict accounts for material that is unlawful, harmful, or otherwise inconsistent with the spirit of these guidelines, even if not explicitly enumerated above.

3. Obligations When Uploading Reference Images

When you upload reference images for model training, you are responsible for the lawfulness of those images. The following requirements apply:

  • You must hold all necessary usage rights to the uploaded images or have the appropriate licenses.
  • If the images depict real persons, you must hold their explicit, documented consent to use those images for AI training, and should retain evidence of that consent (e.g. a model release) and be able to produce it on request.
  • Images of minors may not be uploaded under any circumstances — including for non-sexual purposes.
  • By uploading, you declare to us that all of the above conditions are met. This declaration forms part of the agreement upon initiating training, and is backed by the indemnification obligation in our Terms of Service.
Important notice
False declarations at the upload consent stage constitute a violation of these guidelines and may result in immediate account suspension as well as referral to law enforcement authorities.

4. AI-Content Transparency & Labelling

The EU AI Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1689), Art. 50, imposes transparency obligations on AI-generated content. These obligations become binding from 2 August 2026, and we are aligning our practices accordingly:

  • Provider marking (Art. 50(2)): we are implementing machine-readable marking of AI-generated media (provenance metadata / watermarking) so that outputs can be identified as artificially generated or manipulated.
  • You must not remove, alter, or obscure any AI-generated marking on outputs from the platform, and must not misrepresent AI-generated output as solely human-created where that would be misleading or unlawful.
  • Deployer disclosure (Art. 50(4)): if you generate an image or video that constitutes a "deepfake" of a real, identifiable person, you must disclose that it has been artificially generated or manipulated, clearly and at the latest at the time of first exposure, and must have obtained any necessary consent from the depicted person. A narrow exception exists for evidently artistic, creative, satirical, fictional, or analogous works, provided appropriate disclosure of the existence of such generated or manipulated content is made in a way that does not obstruct the display or enjoyment of the work.

5. Notice-and-Action / Reporting Illegal Content

In accordance with Art. 16 of the EU Digital Services Act (DSA), anyone — not only registered users — may notify us of content on the platform they consider illegal, using the in-app report form below or by emailing abuse@influencerforge.app.

To help us act quickly, a notice should include:

  • A sufficiently substantiated explanation of why the content is considered illegal;
  • The exact electronic location (URL) or clear identification of the content;
  • Your name and email address (anonymous reports are accepted where feasible, but limit our ability to follow up);
  • A statement confirming your good-faith belief that the information and claims are accurate and complete.

We send an automated confirmation of receipt, and we review and decide on notices in a timely, diligent, non-arbitrary, and objective manner. Where we restrict or remove content, or suspend or terminate an account as a result, we provide a statement of reasons under Art. 17 DSA, including whether the decision was made using automated means and how to appeal it.

Report a violation

Submit a report directly — no account required. See also our Cookie Policy for how we handle any data you share with a report.

6. DMCA Copyright Notice-and-Takedown

For users in the United States, we respond to notices of alleged copyright infringement under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. §512). Notices should be sent to our designated agent at legal@influencerforge.app and should include:

  • A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or their authorized agent;
  • Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
  • Identification of the material claimed to be infringing, with enough detail to locate it;
  • Your contact information (address, phone number, email);
  • A statement of good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law;
  • A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner.

We remove or disable access to infringing material promptly upon receiving a valid notice. The affected user may submit a counter-notice; absent the copyright owner filing suit, we will generally restore the material within 10–14 business days after receiving a valid counter-notice. We maintain a policy of terminating, in appropriate circumstances, accounts of repeat infringers.

7. Non-Consensual Intimate Imagery Takedown

We provide a dedicated, expedited process for removing non-consensual intimate imagery (NCII), including in line with the U.S. TAKE IT DOWN Act. Upon receiving a valid request, we remove the identified content, and make reasonable efforts to remove known identical copies, within 48 hours.

A valid request should include:

  • A signature (physical or electronic) of the identified individual or their authorized representative;
  • Identification of the intimate image and where it is located on the platform;
  • A brief statement that the individual did not consent to the publication of the image;
  • Contact information sufficient for us to follow up.

Send NCII takedown requests to abuse@influencerforge.app or use the in-app report form above with the "Real person without consent" category.

8. Consequences of Violations / Enforcement

We reserve the right to take the following measures in the event of violations of these guidelines, without prior notice:

  • Warning: For first-time or minor violations, a written warning may be issued by email.
  • Content removal: Content that violates these guidelines will be removed without notice.
  • Account suspension or deletion: For serious or repeated violations, the account will be immediately suspended or deleted. No refund of remaining credits will be issued in such cases.
  • Repeat-violator termination: Accounts responsible for repeated violations, including repeat copyright infringement, will be terminated.
  • Age/identity verification: We may require reasonable age or identity verification where we suspect a violation of the 18+ requirement or consent obligations.
  • Referral to authorities: For violations indicating criminal conduct (particularly in connection with child sexual abuse material, identity theft, or other serious offenses), we will report to the relevant law enforcement authorities and cooperate with them fully.

We take all reports seriously and address them as quickly as possible. Content indicating serious violations is handled with the highest priority.
