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.

PROMPT
Users are granted a non-exclusive, limited, non-transferable, and freely revocable right to access and use the Service for personal or internal business purposes. Separately, qualifying subscribers receive a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable API license during their Subscription term. Critically, users grant The Forecasting Company an irrevocable, perpetual, transferable, sublicensable (through multiple tiers), fully paid, royalty-free, worldwide license to use, copy, store, modify, distribute, reproduce, publish, create derivative works of, and display User Content — which would encompass submitted prompts — for service provision, product improvement, data analysis, customer research, new feature development, usage trend identification, and industry benchmark creation. Users do not own their User Account and possess no rights to data stored on The Forecasting Company's servers.
OUTPUT
Users may use Service Output for internal business purposes on a royalty-free basis, but use of the Service and its Output does not transfer any Intellectual Property Rights in the Output to the user. The Forecasting Company retains the right, in its sole and absolute discretion, to limit a user's use of Output or require cessation and deletion of copies at any time, if it believes such use may infringe third-party rights. Users are explicitly prohibited from representing Output as human-generated or using Output to train their own machine learning models. The Service may generate identical or similar Output for multiple users.
TRAINING
Users are explicitly prohibited from using any Service content — including captions, keywords, or metadata — for machine learning or AI training purposes. However, the broad User Content license granted to The Forecasting Company expressly includes use for 'improving our products and the Service' and 'developing new products or features,' which encompasses potential model training on submitted User Content. An opt-out mechanism is available: if a user opts out, The Forecasting Company will not use that user's User Content after opt-out to train its machine-learning models or improve the Service. Pre-opt-out use is not addressed.
COMMERCIAL
Users are prohibited from using the Service for commercial solicitation purposes and from copying, reselling, sublicensing, distributing, modifying, or creating derivative works of the Service or The Forecasting Company's Intellectual Property, including via automated scraping. Commercial users engaged in arbitration are responsible for their own JAMS filing, administrative, and arbitrator fees, with any award including costs and reasonable attorneys' fees. All liability disclaimers and terms apply to all users regardless of personal or commercial use. The Service is classified as commercial computer software for government users.
