Act One By Runway
WORKFLOW & AUTOMATION
PROMPT
Users retain responsibility for all content they upload or submit ('Your Content,' including Inputs). However, by using the Services, users grant Company a fully paid, royalty-free, perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, transferable, and sublicensable license to host, use, distribute, reproduce, modify, adapt, publicly perform, and publicly display Your Content for operating and providing the Services. A separate, equally broad license is granted for any Inputs and Outputs 'Made Available' or generated during use. Users have no expectation of privacy concerning transmission of Your Content. Company has no obligation to store Your Content unless separately agreed in writing, and may remove it at sole discretion.
OUTPUT
Company grants users only a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable software license for personal or internal business use. Simultaneously, users grant Company a non-exclusive, irrevocable, perpetual, worldwide, royalty-free, transferable, and sublicensable license to use any Inputs and Outputs generated in connection with the Services. A similarly broad license applies to Feedback. When Outputs are publicly posted, users represent they hold perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide rights to that content — but the Company's concurrent broad license over those same Outputs is not waived. No citation explicitly assigns copyright ownership of Outputs to the user.
TRAINING
Users explicitly acknowledge that Inputs and Outputs may be used by Company to train and improve its AI models, algorithms, and related technology, products, and services — including for labeling, classification, content moderation, and model training purposes. This is stated as an acknowledgment, not a consent toggle, suggesting it is a baseline condition of use. Users are simultaneously prohibited from using the Services or Outputs to create, train, develop, or improve similar or competitive products or services.
COMMERCIAL
Company does not restrict users' commercial use of their Outputs, subject to compliance with the Agreement. No additional licensing fee or approval process for commercial use of Outputs is cited. However, users are prohibited from using Outputs to build competing or similar AI products or services. Users must indemnify Company for losses arising from their Content or use of the Services, but the terms note this indemnity obligation does not cover unconscionable commercial practices, fraud, or deception by Company itself.

WORKFLOW & AUTOMATION
PROMPT
The AI addendum states that User Data — defined as all inputs, Brain content, files, assets, and materials provided by or on behalf of the User — remains the sole property of the User. Awen is granted only a limited licence to process User Data for the duration reasonably necessary to provide the Services and complete retention, export, backup, security, or deletion processes. No transfer of prompt ownership to Awen is described.
OUTPUT
As between the parties and subject to applicable third-party rights, the User holds all rights in Output Content generated through the Services. Awen explicitly does not represent that intellectual property rights necessarily arise in Output Content, nor that Output Content is unique, registrable, protectable, non-infringing, or free from third-party rights. The User bears sole responsibility for evaluating suitability, conducting clearance, and performing legal analysis before any use or commercial exploitation. Awen retains all rights in Awen Materials and Third-Party Materials, and the assignment of Output Content does not extend to those.
TRAINING
The AI addendum contains an explicit, categorical prohibition: Awen shall not use any Inputs, Output Content, User Data, or other Confidential Information to train, fine-tune, evaluate, develop, or improve any machine-learning models, nor for analytics, benchmarking, product improvement, or any purpose unrelated to providing the Services. Any ML processing of User Data is limited to temporary, transient processing solely to generate Output Content. Awen is also obligated to contract with third-party model providers on terms that prohibit use of User Data to train or improve generally available models, to apply transient-processing or equivalent restrictions where available, and to not knowingly route User Data to provider configurations that use customer content for model training.
COMMERCIAL
The User is granted a limited, non-exclusive, non-sublicensable, non-transferable right to access and use the Services for internal professional business purposes only, subject to payment of applicable fees and compliance with the Terms. The User is solely responsible for the commercial exploitation of Output Content, including all necessary clearance and legal analysis prior to such exploitation. The User may not license, sell, transfer, assign, distribute, outsource, or otherwise make the Services available to third parties except as expressly authorised by Awen. Commercial capacity conditions for enterprise tiers are defined in applicable Subscription Agreements or Order Forms.
