01 What the service is #

MyToonMaker is a guided studio for making cartoons. You bring an idea; it helps you build a story and a script, design characters and places, create the images, and turn those into video. The work is done by artificial-intelligence models operated by other companies, listed in our Privacy Policy.

Because those models are involved, two things follow. Results vary, and the same request twice will not give the same picture twice. And a request can be refused by the model rather than by us — most often when a name or description matches a protected character, a brand or a real person.

02 Your account, and children using it #

Children are welcome to make cartoons here. That is much of the point. But the account belongs to an adult.

To hold an account you must be 18 or older. If a child is going to use the studio, the parent or legal guardian registers the account, accepts these terms on the child's behalf, supervises what is made, and is the person any payment is taken from. A child may then create under that account with the adult's permission.

We do not knowingly create accounts for children directly. If you believe one has been created without a parent's involvement, tell us at support@mytoonmaker.com and we will remove it.

Because the account is the adult's, so is the responsibility for what is made under it, and so is the payment. Keep access to your email address secure — it is how you sign in, and anyone holding it holds the account.

We may suspend or close an account that is being used to break these terms, and we will tell you why.

03 What you may make #

The studio is built for original, family-friendly cartoons. You may not use it to create:

• characters, logos or worlds owned by someone else — superheroes, film and game characters, brands and their mascots;
• likenesses of real people without their agreement, including public figures;
• sexual content, content sexualising anyone, or content involving minors in any sexual way;
• material that promotes violence, hatred or harm toward people or groups;
• anything intended to deceive — false depictions of real events, forged documents, impersonation;
• anything illegal where you are.

The model providers apply their own checks and will refuse much of the above on their own. That refusal is not a judgement of you, and it is not something we can override.

04 What you own #

Your idea, your story and your script are yours. The images and video the studio makes for you are yours to use, including commercially, as far as we are able to grant that — subject to the terms of the model providers who generated them, and provided you did not break the rules above to obtain them.

We claim no ownership of your cartoons. We do not use your work to train models, and we do not publish it anywhere. If we ever want to show something you made, we will ask you first.

You give us only the permission needed to run the service: to store your work, and to send what a request needs to the providers who fulfil it.

05 Payment #

Parts of the studio are free to use. Generating images and video costs us real money, so those parts are limited, and paid plans will be introduced. When they are, the price, what it includes and how to cancel will be stated plainly before you are asked for anything, and these terms will be updated to describe them.

06 Availability #

We work to keep the studio running, but we do not promise it will always be available or always succeed. It depends on services we do not control, and any of them can be slow, refuse a request, or stop working. Keep your own copies of work that matters to you — you can download your images at any time.

07 Limits of responsibility #

The service is provided as it is. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, for lost profit, or for work lost through a failure of the service or of a provider it depends on. Nothing here limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.

Other people’s work#

Use content you own or have permission to use. That is the whole rule; the rest of this section is what it means in practice.

• You must own, or have permission to use, anything you upload — pictures, reference images, text and ideas included.
• You may not use MyToonMaker to deliberately reproduce someone else’s copyrighted characters, franchises or trademarks. When a request clearly asks for a protected character, the studio offers an original alternative instead.
• You are responsible for the rights in the material you bring. We are responsible for the tools.
• You grant us only the limited technical rights needed to process your content — storing it, sending it to the generation services that draw and film it, and showing it back to you. Your work is not published anywhere by default.
• We may remove or disable access to content after a valid infringement complaint, or where infringement otherwise becomes apparent (see our copyright policy and DMCA procedure). We may suspend or terminate, in appropriate circumstances, accounts that repeatedly infringe.

08 Ending it #

You may stop using the service and ask us to delete your account at any time, at support@mytoonmaker.com. We may end this agreement if you break these terms, or if we discontinue the service — in which case we will give you reasonable notice and time to download your work.

09 Changes #

If these terms change, the date at the top changes. For a change that materially affects you, we will say so on the site before it takes effect.

10 Which law applies #

This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. Any dispute that cannot be settled between us goes to the state or federal courts located in Florida, and both of us agree to that.

If you use the service from outside the United States, you may hold rights under your own country's consumer or data-protection law that an agreement cannot take away. Nothing here is meant to remove them.
