6. Content moderation and complaints

6.1 If the User uploads content to the Service, the content is the sole responsibility of the User that submitted it. We do not guarantee to review all User content before or after it is uploaded to the Service.

6.2 We use automated tools and human moderators to review User comments on our Service. Our moderators also fully investigate all reports of User content which may violate our Terms of Service or may be illegal.

6.3 Anyone can report content on our Service. Further information regarding how to report content and/or accounts is available in clause 11 of these Terms of Service.

6.4 Where a User disagrees with a moderation decision, they may contact us via email (Kaleido: [email protected], remove.bg: [email protected], Unscreen: [email protected], or Designify: [email protected]). Users must submit their complaint within six months of the relevant moderation decision.

6.5 Upon receiving a complaint, we will: ensure the complaint is reviewed in a timely, non-discriminatory, diligent and non-arbitrary manner; reverse our decision if we determine our initial assessment was incorrect; and inform you of our decision and of any possibilities for redress promptly. We reserve the right to remove any content from the Service at any time and for any reason, at our discretion. This applies in particular to defective files, inferior quality content, content which is in violation of these Terms of Service and for any reason relating to potential legal issues.

6.6 We may also make our own proprietary or third party content (which may include AI-generated content) available to you for your use as part of the Service. If the content comes from Pexels, please refer to the Pexels License, if the content comes from Pixabay, please refer to the Pixabay License.

6.7 If we make any background imagery content available to you, please note that you cannot sell or distribute that content (either in digital or physical form) on a Standalone basis. This includes selling or distributing content on a Standalone basis as an image, audio, video, NFT or other digital file (including through a stock media platform), as well as a print, wallpaper, poster or on merchandise or on other physical products. When we refer to “Standalone” we mean where no creative effort has been applied to the Content and it remains in substantially the same form as it exists on the Service. To help illustrate this, here are some examples:

using the content in its original form or solely using a filter, changing colors, resizing or cropping the content remains Standalone use;
using the content with a combination of images, videos, audio files, other media, text, illustrations, background features and editing techniques is not Standalone use, so long as the combined effect is to make a “new” creative work.

6.8 If you choose to use any AI-generated content, you acknowledge that you are responsible for any input and the ultimate output created on the Service. You agree not to attempt to bypass any safety features or content protections we’ve put in place on our features or the Service. You agree not to use the Service, or any Content from the Services:

to mislead anyone that the content generated by AI powered products is human-generated;
Generate a deepfake or otherwise impersonate individuals to mislead others or produce content designed to deceive;
Remove, alter, or disable any provenance or metadata tags from any AI-generated content, including but not limited to C2PA metadata;
Generate content and use it in a manner that would violate applicable laws or regulations;
Generate misleading, or deceptive political or electoral content that threatens or undermines democratic processes or institutions;
Generate explicit sexual content or nudity;
Generate content that is sexualised, exploitative or inappropriate involving, depicting or relating to minors;
Generate or disseminate information that violates or limits the fundamental rights or freedoms of others; or
to create any harmful content (including anything which breaches these Terms).

6.9 You are responsible for any text you type in, or images or other content you upload, to any AI products in the Service (Input) as well as the resulting material you generate, such as images or text (Output). By using our Service, you represent and warrant that you have all necessary rights, licenses, and permissions needed to use your Input in the Service. You are responsible for ensuring that your Input and Output complies with these Terms before using or sharing it. As between you and Operator, to the extent permitted by law and subject to the terms of the agreement that governs your use of the Service:

Operator makes no claim over your Input; and
You own your Output, however owning your Output doesn’t automatically mean you can use every part of it for any purpose (e.g., commercial use) and your Output may include third party content for which Operator cannot give you a license to use (e.g. if you include third party content in your Input or prompt an AI generated feature to create Output containing content subject to third party rights)
You are responsible for verifying that your use of your Input and Output, and of any content embodied in your Output, complies with applicable rights and licenses.
You grant to Operator a perpetual, royalty-free, sublicensable license to display, host, copy, store and use your Input and Output to the extent necessary to provide Operator’s products or services to you.
When using any Output you agree that you must comply with these Terms and you accept that any such use is at your own risk.
Operator may impose limits on the number of Outputs you can create with AI products on the Service (whether based on credits or otherwise).

This includes but is not limited to identifiable people, logos, brands of all kinds (whether two-or three- dimensional), goods or services, buildings and architecture, audio or video samples and organisations. Before using any content provided on the Service, you must consider whether you require the consent of a third party or a license to use the content. Responsibility for determining whether permissions are needed always rests solely and exclusively with you. We do not warrant that any consents or licenses have been obtained in relation to any content, and we expressly disclaim any and all responsibility and liability in relation to such matters.

6.11 AI products can make mistakes. Canva does not verify the accuracy of Outputs and Outputs do not represent Operator’s views. You are solely responsible for evaluating the accuracy and appropriateness of all Outputs for your use case. Operator makes no warranty or guarantee as to the accuracy, completeness or reliability of any Outputs and does not accept any liability or responsibility arising in any way from your use of any Outputs or any omissions or errors contained in any Outputs. Where required, we recommend that you obtain professional and independent medical, legal or financial advice in respect of your use of any Output, including before you act on any advice contained in any Output, rely on the accuracy of any Output, or use any Output in a commercial context.
