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.
