Acceptable Use Policy

1. Purpose

This Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) sets out what you may and may not do with PodcastYes. It supplements our Terms of Service. We may update it as the service and abuse patterns evolve.

2. Prohibited content

You may not use PodcastYes to create, store, or distribute content that:

• Is illegal, infringes intellectual-property or privacy rights, or violates any applicable law.
• Is hateful, harassing, threatening, or incites violence against people or groups.
• Is sexually explicit, exploits minors, or sexualizes real individuals.
• Impersonates a real person or clones a real voice or likeness without that person's consent.
• Spreads deliberate disinformation, fraud, or scams, or facilitates malware or phishing.

3. Prohibited conduct

You also agree not to:

• Bypass or attempt to bypass usage limits, rate limits, authentication, or other security controls.
• Scrape, reverse-engineer, or attempt to extract the underlying models or source code.
• Resell, sublicense, or white-label the service except as expressly permitted by your plan.
• Use automated access (including the API) in a way that degrades the service for others.

4. AI-generated media

Because PodcastYes produces synthetic voice and imagery, you are responsible for using it ethically: do not create deceptive deepfakes of real people, and disclose that audio is AI-generated where your audience or the law expects it. You are responsible for clearing any rights needed for the topics, names, and references in your episodes.

5. Enforcement

We use automated moderation to screen topics and generated scripts, and we may flag, hold, remove, or refuse to generate content that violates this policy. We may suspend or terminate accounts that abuse the service or put it, our providers, or other users at risk — immediately in serious cases.

6. Reporting abuse

If you believe content created with PodcastYes violates this policy, report it to abuse@podcastyes.app with enough detail for us to investigate.
