This Acceptable Use Policy describes content and conduct that is not permitted on RapidThumbnails. It is incorporated by reference into our Terms of Service. Violations may result in immediate suspension or termination of your account, without refund, and may be reported to law enforcement where required.

1. Prohibited Content

• Depicts non-consensual intimate imagery, including AI-generated imagery purporting to show a real person in a sexual or intimate context without their consent. This includes "deepfake" nudes.
• Impersonates a real person without their consent.Uploading or generating a face likeness requires that you have the depicted person's consent, OR that they are a public figure depicted in a context that is clearly satirical, journalistic, or otherwise lawful in your jurisdiction.
• Infringes intellectual property rights. Do not upload reference images you do not have rights to use, and do not generate outputs designed to copy a specific copyrighted work, trademarked logo, or character likeness without authorization. Subject to our DMCA Policy.
