Terms of Service

1. Acceptance

By signing in and using Kubock you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

2. The service

Kubock is an AI studio for filmmakers, covering script breakdown, character design, storyboards and rough cut — from screenplay to timeline, one workspace. The service is provided on an as-is basis and may change, pause or end without notice.

3. Account and eligibility

You sign in with a Google account. You must be at least 16 years old. You are responsible for any activity on your account and for keeping your credentials secure.

4. Bring Your Own Keys (BYOK) and costs

Kubock operates on a BYOK model. To use AI features you must provide your own API keys for one or more supported providers (fal.ai, Google Gemini, Anthropic, OpenAI, Civitai) from your profile page. Generations are billed directly by those providers to your accounts — Kubock does not resell compute and does not charge you per generation.

You are solely responsible for: obtaining and maintaining valid keys, the spending limits configured at each provider, any charges your keys incur, and rotating or revoking keys if they are compromised. Kubock is not liable for costs, rate-limit denials or service interruptions caused by the state of your third-party accounts.

Keys you save in Kubock are encrypted server-side. See our Security page for the full technical model.

5. Your content

You keep ownership of the scripts, prompts, images, videos and audio you upload or generate through Kubock. You grant Kubock a limited licence to store, process and display that content solely to operate the service for you.

AI-generated output is produced by third-party models. Rights to that output are governed by the terms of the underlying model provider. You are responsible for how you use generated content.

If you publish or distribute AI-generated content produced with Kubock, you are responsible for any disclosure, labelling or transparency obligations that apply to you under the law of your jurisdiction, for example the transparency rules of the EU AI Act. Kubock does not add or preserve provenance metadata in exported files.

6. Acceptable use

Do not use Kubock to create or upload content that is illegal, defamatory, violent, or sexually explicit involving minors; that harasses, threatens or doxxes any person, or promotes hatred against a person or group; that infringes any third-party intellectual property, including copyrights and trademarks; that uses the name, likeness or voice of a real person without their consent — including non-consensual sexual imagery or deceptive synthetic media (so-called deepfakes); that contains or distributes malware, or is used for phishing or other fraud; or that violates the usage policies of the AI providers you are calling with your keys. Do not attempt to reverse engineer, overload or abuse the service, including abusive scraping or automated access. Accounts that break these rules can be suspended or removed.

To report content that infringes your trademark, likeness or other rights, contact us at support@kubock.com; we remove infringing material once notified. Copyright claims are handled under the DMCA process in Section 11 below.

7. Third-party providers

Kubock relies on third-party services to function: Google (authentication), Supabase (database and storage), Vercel (hosting), and AI model providers including fal.ai, Civitai, OpenAI, Anthropic and Google Gemini. By using Kubock you accept that your prompts and reference files may be sent to these providers to process your requests, authenticated with the API keys you have configured.

8. Intellectual property

The Kubock name, logo, interface and source code are owned by Kubock, a service operated by Knightama Studios (California, United States). You may not copy, resell or white-label the service without written permission.

9. Termination

You can stop using Kubock at any time. We can suspend or close your account if you break these Terms, abuse the service or use it for illegal purposes. On account closure we delete your content and encrypted keys as described in the Privacy Policy.

10. Disclaimer, liability and indemnification

Kubock is provided without warranty of any kind. We do not guarantee uninterrupted service, accurate AI output or the preservation of your data. To the maximum extent allowed by law, Kubock is not liable for indirect or consequential damages arising from your use of the service, including but not limited to third-party API costs incurred through your keys, and our total liability for any claim arising from the service is limited to the greater of fifty (50) US dollars or the amounts you have paid Kubock in the twelve months before the claim.

You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Kubock and its operator from any claims, damages and reasonable legal costs arising from your content, your use of the service or the generated output, or your breach of these Terms — including infringement of intellectual property, privacy or personality rights.

11. Copyright and DMCA

We respect intellectual property rights and respond to clear notices of alleged copyright infringement under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). If you believe content stored on Kubock infringes a copyright you own or control, send a written notice to our Designated Agent at support@kubock.com including: (1) your physical or electronic signature; (2) identification of the copyrighted work you claim has been infringed; (3) identification of the material claimed to be infringing and enough detail for us to locate it; (4) your name, address and contact details; (5) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and (6) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in your notice is accurate and that you are the copyright owner or authorized to act on its behalf.

Designated Copyright Agent: Kubock Copyright Agent, support@kubock.com. Upon receiving a valid notice we will remove or disable access to the material promptly and may notify the user who posted it. We terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

If you believe your content was removed by mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to the same address. A valid counter-notice must include: (1) your physical or electronic signature; (2) identification of the material that was removed and the location where it appeared before removal; (3) a statement under penalty of perjury that you have a good-faith belief the material was removed as a result of mistake or misidentification; (4) your name, address and telephone number; and (5) a statement that you consent to the jurisdiction of the federal court for the judicial district where you live, or, if your address is outside the United States, the Central District of California, and that you will accept service of process from the party who filed the original notice. On receiving a valid counter-notice we may restore the material in 10 to 14 business days, unless the original claimant notifies us that they have filed a court action to restrain the allegedly infringing activity.

12. Governing law, arbitration and class action waiver

These Terms, and any dispute or claim arising out of or relating to them or to your use of the Service, are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles, except where mandatory consumer-protection law in your place of residence applies. If you are a consumer in the European Union, the European Economic Area or the United Kingdom, nothing in these Terms deprives you of the protections of the mandatory laws of your country of residence, and where those laws so require you may bring proceedings before your local courts; the arbitration provisions below apply to you only to the extent permitted by those laws.

Please read this section carefully: it changes how disputes are resolved. Any dispute, claim or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or your use of the Service shall be resolved exclusively by final and binding individual arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Consumer Arbitration Rules then in effect, before a single arbitrator, seated in Los Angeles County, California, rather than in court — except that either party may bring an individual claim in small-claims court if it qualifies. You and Kubock each waive the right to a trial by jury and the right to participate in any class, collective, consolidated or representative action. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims or preside over any form of representative proceeding.

If the class action waiver above is found unenforceable as to a given claim, that claim — and only that claim — shall be severed and may proceed in court, while the rest of this section stays in force. You may opt out of this arbitration agreement by emailing support@kubock.com within 30 days of first accepting these Terms; if you opt out, this section does not apply to you.

13. Changes

These Terms may be updated. Continued use of Kubock after changes are published means you accept the new version.
