Creator Terms

Last updated: March 23, 2026

These Creator Terms supplement the Terms of Service and Community Guidelines. By using Studio to create and publish avatars, you agree to all three. If there's a conflict, these Creator Terms take precedence for Studio-related matters.

Who Is a Creator

A "Creator" is any user with access to Studio — the set of tools for designing, configuring, and publishing AI avatars on Avatar Arcade. Creator access is granted at our discretion and may be limited during early access periods.

What You Build

Using Studio, you can create avatar configurations that include:

Character name, tagline, and personality prompt
Voice selection and configuration
Visual appearance (portraits, avatar rendering style)
Background audio and ambient settings
Trailer recordings that showcase the avatar

Together, these elements form your "Creator Content."

Ownership and License

You Own Your Creative Work

As between you and Ink Sky Media LLC, you retain ownership of the original creative elements you contribute — your personality prompts, character concepts, voice direction, and other human-authored inputs.

What You License to Us

When you publish an avatar, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use your Creator Content to provide, improve, and develop the Services. This includes hosting, displaying, distributing, and making your avatar available to other users — plus modifying it for formatting, optimization, and platform compatibility.

This license continues after account termination for content that was published and interacted with by other users. Unpublished drafts are not covered.

What Users Can Do

Other users can interact with your published avatars through conversations — that's the intended use. They don't get rights to copy, redistribute, or repurpose your avatar outside the App.

Credits and Studio Costs

Studio operations consume credits from the same balance you use for conversations:

Avatar Assistant sessions — credits per minute, based on the AI services used during the voice conversation.
Asset generation — credits per operation for portraits, audio tracks, and trailer recordings. The cost is shown before you confirm each generation.
Rates reflect provider costs and may include a platform fee. Rates may change as provider pricing changes — the current rate is always displayed before you confirm.
Non-refundable. Credits spent on Studio operations are consumed whether or not you use or keep the output.

Publishing and Visibility

Draft vs. Published

Avatars start as private drafts visible only to you. Publishing makes them discoverable by all users. You can unpublish at any time, which returns the avatar to a private state.

Content Screening

When you activate an avatar for the first time, it goes through an automated content screen. If something is flagged, you'll see a clear explanation and can edit before retrying. See our Community Guidelines for what's checked.

Suspension

If a published avatar is reported and found to violate the Community Guidelines or Terms of Service, it may be suspended from public access. During suspension:

The avatar is hidden from browse, search, and collections
New conversations cannot start
Active conversations continue until they end naturally
You'll see the reason in Studio (but not the reporter's identity)
Only an admin resolution can restore or remove the avatar

Your Responsibilities

As a Creator, you're responsible for:

Your content. Everything in your avatar's configuration — name, prompt, voice, images — must comply with our Community Guidelines.
Rights clearance. If you use voice samples, images, or likenesses of real people, you need verifiable permission. AI-generated assets are fine.
IP risk for fan content. We don't make fair use determinations for you. If you build a fan avatar, the IP risk is yours. See the Community Guidelines fan content section.
Indemnification. You agree to indemnify us against claims arising from your Creator Content, including IP disputes. The full indemnification clause is in the Terms of Service.

Removing Your Content

Unpublish — hides the avatar from public discovery. You can do this anytime from Studio.
Archive — removes the avatar from your Studio workspace. Underlying data is retained for billing, analytics, and compliance purposes.
Full deletion — email support@avatararcade.ai. We process deletion requests within 30 days, except where retention is required for billing records, legal compliance, or active disputes.

Future Features

We may introduce additional Creator features over time, including analytics, revenue sharing, and advanced customization tools. These will come with their own terms or updates to this document. We'll notify you before any changes take effect.
