1. Our Commitment to Safety

OpenArt Studio is committed to providing a safe, ethical, and responsible AI content generation platform. We recognize that AI-powered creative tools carry inherent risks, and we take proactive measures to prevent misuse. Our safety infrastructure is designed to protect users, the public, and the integrity of AI-generated content.

We comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding AI-generated content, including but not limited to the Digital Services Act (EU), the UK Online Safety Act, and U.S. federal and state laws regarding deepfakes, CSAM, and intellectual property.

2. Multi-Layer Content Moderation System

OpenArt Studio employs a multi-layer content moderation approach to prevent the generation, storage, and distribution of harmful or prohibited content:

3. Prohibited Content — Zero Tolerance

OpenArt Studio maintains a zero-tolerance policy for the following categories of content. Any attempt to generate, upload, store, or distribute the following is strictly prohibited and will result in immediate account termination and, where applicable, referral to law enforcement:

3.1 Absolutely Prohibited (Immediate Termination + Law Enforcement Referral)

• Child Sexual Abuse Material (CSAM): Any content depicting or suggesting the sexual exploitation of minors. We report all CSAM to the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) and relevant law enforcement agencies
• Deepfakes of Real Individuals: Non-consensual intimate imagery or manipulated media designed to deceive, harass, defame, or defraud using the likeness of real people
• Terrorism & Violent Extremism: Content that promotes, recruits for, or glorifies terrorist organizations or violent extremist ideologies
• Content Facilitating Illegal Activity: Material designed to facilitate drug trafficking, human trafficking, weapons manufacturing, money laundering, fraud, or other criminal enterprises

3.2 Strictly Prohibited (Account Termination)

• NSFW / Sexually Explicit Content: Pornographic, sexually explicit, or overtly sexual content of any kind, including AI-generated nudity
• Graphic Violence & Gore: Content depicting extreme violence, mutilation, torture, or other graphic violent imagery
• Hate Speech & Discrimination: Content that promotes hatred, violence, or discrimination against individuals or groups based on race, ethnicity, religion, gender, sexual orientation, disability, or other protected characteristics
• Harassment & Bullying: Content designed to harass, intimidate, threaten, or bully specific individuals
• Disinformation & Fraud: Content designed to deceive, defraud, or manipulate individuals, including fake news, scam materials, phishing content, and fraudulent marketing
• Intellectual Property Infringement: Content that intentionally reproduces copyrighted works, trademarks, or other protected intellectual property without authorization
• Impersonation: Content created to impersonate real individuals, organizations, or government entities for deceptive purposes

4. NSFW & Deepfake Prevention

OpenArt Studio takes specific, proactive measures to prevent NSFW content and deepfakes:

4.1 NSFW Content Prevention

• All AI providers used by OpenArt Studio (Google Imagen, Gemini, Runware) have built-in NSFW classifiers that block explicit content generation at the model level
• Our platform-level filters screen prompts for explicit language, sexual references, and NSFW intent before they reach AI providers
• Generated images are not post-processed or modified to circumvent provider safety filters
• Users cannot upload external images that bypass our content moderation pipeline

4.2 Deepfake Prevention

• Prompts requesting the generation of content depicting real, identifiable individuals are blocked
• Our Character Studio feature generates only fictional characters and does not support uploading or referencing photographs of real people
• AI providers' built-in safeguards prevent the generation of photorealistic likenesses of public figures
• Any content reported as a deepfake is immediately removed pending investigation

5. Acceptable Use

11. Third-Party AI Provider Safety

OpenArt Studio utilizes the following AI providers, each with their own safety measures:

• Google Imagen: Built-in safety classifiers for image generation, blocks NSFW, violent, and harmful content
• Google Gemini: Content safety filters for text generation, prevents generation of harmful, misleading, or illegal text content
• Runware: Video generation platform with content moderation for video outputs

These providers' safety measures operate in addition to (not instead of) our own platform-level content moderation. Our multi-layer approach ensures that content must pass through multiple independent safety checks before being delivered to users.

12. Updates to This Policy

We may update this Safety & Usage Policy as AI technology evolves and new risks emerge. Material changes will be communicated to users via email and/or a prominent notice on the platform. Your continued use of OpenArt Studio after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated policy.
