Acceptable use policy
Last updated: Draft — not yet reviewed
Referenced from the Terms of Service — this is the detailed version of what “don't misuse the Service” actually means for a voice-cloning product specifically.
The core rule
Only upload videos of people who have consented to having their voice cloned and their video dubbed. This applies whether it's your own video, a client's, or content you have general usage rights to but didn't specifically clear for voice cloning — general video rights don't automatically include voice-cloning rights.
Specifically prohibited
- Cloning a public figure's or private individual's voice without their consent
- Creating dubbed content designed to make someone appear to say something they didn't — even in translation, not just in the original language
- Using cloned voices for fraud, impersonation, or to bypass voice-authentication systems
- Uploading content depicting or involving minors in a way that isn't appropriate for the platform
- Uploading content you don't have the underlying rights to (see the Copyright/DMCA policy)
- Using the Service to generate misinformation or deceptive political content
What we can do about violations
Remove the content, suspend the account, or terminate it outright, depending on severity — a first-time borderline case is treated differently than deliberate fraud. [Define your actual escalation ladder here; I'm not inventing specific thresholds since that's an operational decision, not a legal one.]
Reporting misuse
If you believe someone used DubQik to clone your voice or someone else's without consent, contact [your abuse-reporting email] — this is a different, faster path than the copyright process, since non-consensual voice cloning often isn't a copyright issue at all.
