“HeyGen does not claim to own any of Your Content and by using the Services and uploading or generating Your Content, you grant us a license to access, use, host, cache, store, reproduce, transmit, display, publish, distribute, and modify Your Content to operate, improve, promote…”
Despite not claiming ownership, HeyGen takes a broad, royalty-free, transferable, sublicensable, worldwide, and irrevocable license over all user inputs. The license survives termination, meaning revoking access does not end HeyGen's rights to previously submitted content.
“ Ownership; Restrictions: The technology and software underlying the Service or distributed in connection therewith are the property of Suno, its affiliates, and its licensors (the "Software"). You agree not to copy, modify, create a derivative work of, reverse engineer, reverse…”
“All Feedback becomes the sole and exclusive property of HeyGen, and HeyGen may use and disclose Feedback in any manner and for any purpose whatsoever without further notice or compensation to you and without retention by you of any proprietary or other right or claim. You hereby…”
Any feedback submitted—including suggestions, comments, or improvements—is irrevocably assigned to HeyGen with no compensation. Includes patent rights, trade secrets, and moral rights waiver.
“use the Services (and any Output or Voice Model) to create, develop or improve any competing products or services or to power, enable or train other artificial intelligence and machine learning models, tools or technologies;”
Users are prohibited from using outputs or Voice Models to train competing AI/ML systems or build competing products, significantly restricting downstream use of generated content.
“you grant us a license to access, use, host, cache, store, reproduce, transmit, display, publish, distribute, and modify Your Content to operate, improve, promote and provide the Services and to develop new services and products, including to train or otherwise improve or modify…”
User content (inputs and outputs) from paid plan users is explicitly licensed for AI model training. This is opt-in by default with no clear opt-out mechanism mentioned.
“We use certain User Activity Information, Submissions, Interactive Chat Information, and other Content to improve our Services, product offerings, promotional activity, and business, including to train and enhance the models that power our Services as it is in our legitimate inte…”
Suno explicitly uses user Submissions, Interactive Chat Information (including prompts), and other Content to train and enhance its AI models, justified under 'legitimate interests' with no opt-out mechanism described for this use.
“User Output generated under a Free Plan may not be sold, sublicensed, redistributed, monetized, or used in connection with commercial activities, advertising, client work, revenue-generating product or any other services.”
Complete prohibition on commercial use of outputs for free plan users, including advertising, client work, and revenue-generating activities.
“use the Services (and any Output or Voice Model) to create, develop or improve any competing products or services or to power, enable or train other artificial intelligence and machine learning models, tools or technologies;”
Users are prohibited from using Outputs or Voice Models to train any other AI/ML models or tools. This restricts legitimate downstream AI development use cases and is broader than a simple non-compete.
“Some of the features of the Services require us to process parts of faces or bodies within a video or photo, and this may include face imagery. The information we use for this process is used to create and personalize avatars. See our Biometric Information Privacy Notice for furt…”
Biometric data (face imagery, body data) is collected and processed. This triggers heightened legal obligations under BIPA (Illinois), CCPA sensitive data rules, and GDPR Article 9.
“You acknowledge that Suno may establish general practices and limits concerning use of the Service, including the maximum period of time that data or other content will be retained by the Service and the maximum storage space that will be allotted on Suno's or its third-part…”
Suno can delete all user Submissions and Outputs upon account inactivity or at any time it changes its retention practices, with no defined notice period and no obligation to notify users. Users risk permanent loss of their content.
“ (d) Refunds and Exchanges. Payments are non-refundable, except where required by law.”
“ Refunds and Cancellations: Payments made by you hereunder are final and non-refundable, unless otherwise determined by Suno.”
