# Acceptable Use Policy

Last updated: 2026-10-04

FaceKit changes how a person looks in a photo. That only works if the people in those photos can trust it. This policy explains which photos you may upload, what you must not create, and how to share results responsibly. It is part of our [Terms of Use](/terms), and words such as "Service" and "results" mean the same here as there.

## 1. The short version

- Edit photos of yourself, or of people who have agreed to it.
- Keep it non-sexual, non-hateful and honest.
- Never use an edit to pretend to be someone, to deceive someone, or to hurt someone.
- When you share a realistic edit of a real person, say that it was made with AI.

## 2. Photos you upload

You may upload a photo only if:

- you have the right to use it (you took it, it is yours, or its owner allowed you); and
- every recognizable person in it is you, or someone who has agreed to you editing their photo with AI.

This covers every photo you add: the photo you edit, any reference photo (a face, a scene, a garment, a hairstyle, a tattoo design), and both parents' photos in Future Baby.

Do not upload photos of children under 13, even your own, or photos of anyone else under 18. If you are under 18 yourself, edit only photos of yourself. Also do not upload photos that show nudity or sexual activity, photos of identity documents, or photos of someone taken in a private place without their knowledge.

## 3. What you must not create

Do not use FaceKit to create, or try to create, any of the following:

- **Sexual content.** Nude, sexual or sexually suggestive images of anyone, including "undressing" a person or making clothing see-through.
- **Anything sexualizing or abusing a child.** We have zero tolerance. We report child sexual abuse material to the authorities and close the account.
- **Deception and impersonation.** Images meant to pass as genuine photos of a real person in order to deceive: fake profiles, catfishing, scams, fake evidence, fake news or election material, or a person shown doing or saying something they did not do.
- **Non-consensual edits.** Images of a real person they did not agree to, and that could embarrass, humiliate, harass or harm them.
- **Fake or official documents.** Forged or altered identity documents, or photos for official use such as passports, ID cards, visas or driving licences. AI-edited photos are not suitable for official documents.
- **Hate, harassment and violence.** Content that attacks people for who they are (including their gender, gender identity, race, ethnicity, religion, disability or sexual orientation), threatens or bullies someone, glorifies violence or terrorism, or encourages self-harm.
- **Someone else's rights.** Content that infringes copyright, trademarks or a person's image or publicity rights, for example using a celebrity's likeness to promote a product.
- **Anything else illegal** where you live or where you share it.

## 4. Extra rules for some tools

- **Face Swap.** Put a face into a scene only if the person whose face it is has agreed. Do not swap a public figure's face into a scene to make it look real or to imply they endorse something.
- **Gender Swap and Face Aging.** These are for fun. Do not use them to mock someone's gender identity, age or appearance.
- **Future Baby.** Use the parents' photos only if both parents agree. The result is an imaginary picture, not a genetic prediction, and must never be presented as a real child.
- **AI Headshot and AI Retouch.** You may use your headshot for a profile or CV. Do not use it to hide who you are.
- **Prompts.** Do not write prompts designed to get around our safety filters or our AI providers' filters.

## 5. Sharing results

Results are generated by artificial intelligence. Before you share one:

- If it is a realistic image of a real person that people could mistake for a genuine photo, make it clear that it was edited with AI, for example by saying so in the caption.
- Do not remove or hide labels, metadata or watermarks that show an image was made with AI.
- Follow the rules of the platform where you post it, and get the consent of anyone shown in it.

## 6. Using the Service fairly

Do not:

- get around usage limits, credits, filters or other safety measures, for example by creating several accounts to collect free credits;
- access the Service with bots, scripts or scrapers, or through anything other than the FaceKit app;
- reverse engineer, decompile or copy the app, except where the law allows it;
- resell, rent or share access to your account or subscription;
- interfere with the Service, its security or other people's use of it.

## 7. How we enforce this policy

Our safety filters, and those of our AI providers, block some requests automatically. A blocked request does not produce a result. Filters are not perfect: they may block a harmless request, and they may miss a harmful one. You remain responsible for what you upload and create.

If you break this policy, we may refuse a request, delete content we hold, limit features, or suspend or close your account. Unless the law forbids it or the situation is urgent, we tell you what we did and why, and you can ask us to look at the decision again by replying to that message or writing to [support@facekit.io](mailto:support@facekit.io). We report content that appears to involve child sexual abuse, and credible threats to someone's life or safety, to the authorities.

## 8. Report misuse

If you think FaceKit was used to create an image of you without your consent, or you have found content created with FaceKit that is illegal or breaks this policy, email [support@facekit.io](mailto:support@facekit.io) with "Report" in the subject. Please include:

- what the content is and where you saw it (a link or a screenshot);
- why you believe it is illegal or breaks this policy;
- your name and email address, unless you are reporting child sexual abuse material, which you may report anonymously; and
- a statement that your report is accurate and made in good faith.

We confirm that we received your report, review it promptly and tell you what we decided. FaceKit does not publish results, so we cannot remove an image from another website or app. We can delete what we hold, act against the account that made it, and help you report it to the platform where it appears.
