This Compliance Agreement is part of the Terms of Use. It is the rulebook for what may be uploaded, generated, published, and reported on audio9. If an in-product warning is stricter than a sentence here, follow the stricter rule. Questions and notices go to support@audio9.io.

audio9 is a creative tool for short songs and videos: a line of text, photos, a chat screenshot, a short clip, a flip of a public song, a style change, a lyric video, a party invite, a seasonal template, or a private voice you are allowed to use. It is not a label, not a rights-clearance service, and not a way to imitate a real artist.

1. Your responsibility

You are responsible for your prompts, photos, screenshots, video, voice, and for the songs you publish. A song appearing in the feed is not an endorsement by audio9. You will follow the copyright, trademark, portrait, publicity, privacy, consumer, and child-safety laws that apply to you, including rules on synthetic media. In mainland China those rules include the measures on generative artificial intelligence and on deep synthesis, as they apply to you. In other countries, follow the labeling and impersonation rules that apply there.

2. Uses that are welcome

You may make songs and videos about your own life, jokes, pets, parties, sports you took part in, and fiction, within Section 3. You may include a friend when you have their permission, or when the piece stays private and is the kind of joke that friend would expect. You may flip a public audio9 song inside the Service. You may post your Output on social networks within the personal, non-commercial license in the Terms. Quiz and seasonal templates, including “what kind of ghost are you”, are entertainment. Do not present the result as a diagnosis or as a fact about another person.

3. Prohibited content and conduct

Do not submit, generate, or publish anything that:

• sexually depicts anyone under 18, real or fictional, or is any sexual image of a minor;
• is non-consensual intimate imagery, or a sexual deepfake of a real person;
• sexualizes a minor or is used to groom a minor;
• harasses, doxes, blackmails, or threatens a real person, including by singing their address, school, workplace, phone number, or private messages;
• incites violence or praises a terrorist act;
• attacks a person or group because of race, ethnicity, national origin, caste, religion, gender, sexual orientation, or disability;
• is a fraud, a phishing lure, a fake official notice, or a scam;
• infringes copyright, trademark, or another right, including a commercial recording or lyrics you do not have rights to;
• uses a real artist’s name, voice, or persona so that an ordinary listener would think the artist performed, endorsed, or released the song;
• clones a real person’s voice without the permission the Terms require, or uploads a celebrity or professional singer;
• places a real person’s face or body in a sexual, humiliating, or fabricated scene without the right to do so;
• contains malware, or is an attempt to scrape, overload, reverse engineer, or bypass a block;
• is used to train another model or to build a competing generator from our Output, models, or templates;
• evades a ban, including with a new account after a serious breach;
• presents synthetic media as a real recording of a real artist or a real event, where an ordinary listener would be misled.

We may block a prompt before a song exists. Calling it a joke does not make the first three items allowed. Political satire that does not impersonate a private person’s voice, and that is not a fraudulent record of an event, can still be refused if it is likely to mislead or to break the law.

4. Photos, chats, and other people

Photos of pets, trips, and friends are welcome when you have the right to use them. Do not upload a child into a sexual, violent, or shaming template. If a template alters a portrait, including a seasonal “ghost” image, the altered image is still subject to this Agreement. Do not present that image as a real photograph of something that happened.

A chat-reply song should come from a conversation you are in. Take out passwords, card numbers, ID numbers, and addresses before you upload. We rewrite the chat for the on-screen replay and do not publish the original screenshot as that replay, but you remain responsible for what you submitted. Do not publish a song that quotes a private person’s messages together with their full name or face in order to shame them. A private draft is not a license to post that draft.

5. Voice

The voice upload exists so a song can use a voice you are allowed to use. Before a profile is saved, you confirm that you own the voice or have explicit permission. That confirmation must be true. You may upload your own voice, or the voice of a private individual who agreed to this exact use. You may not upload a celebrity, an influencer, a classmate, a coworker, a professional recording, or anyone else who has not agreed.

A preset vocal labeled female, male, or auto is a stock character of the model. It is not a named person. Do not caption it as a specific singer. Where the law treats the sample as biometric information, the checkbox is your written consent to collect and use it to generate your songs, to store it privately for that purpose, and for no other person’s library. You may delete the profile. We may delete it, and songs made from it, if the confirmation is false or if this section is broken.

6. Music, style, and likeness

Do not ask for a living or dead artist’s voice or signature style in order to pass the result off as theirs. A loose genre description is fine. Naming a person so the song will be mistaken for their release is not. We may refuse either when the result is likely to confuse listeners or to violate the law.

Uploading audio to change its style is only for recordings you have the right to adapt, or for songs already made on audio9. We may limit uploads to in-service songs. If you upload something you do not control, you bear the claim, and we may remove the result. Output can resemble existing music by accident. You are responsible for checking it before any use beyond personal listening and ordinary social sharing. We do not clear rights, and the Terms do not give a commercial license.

7. The public feed

A public song can be played by others and used as the start of a flip. Do not publish a song that breaks this Agreement. You can switch a song to private. That does not recall copies already made. We may rank, feature, or decline to feature a song, and we may remove a public song that is reported, that we believe breaks this Agreement, or that creates a risk for a real person. Private songs are not a hiding place for prohibited content. We may still remove them and close the account.

8. Honesty

Do not sell, buy, or share accounts. Do not describe a song the Service generated as a paid commission from a human musician, or as someone else’s recording.

9. Synthetic-media labels

Lyrics, vocals, covers, altered portraits, and template videos are generated or assembled with software. When you post them, do not say they are a live performance by a real artist or a documentary recording of an event that did not happen. Where a platform or a law requires a synthetic-media label, you will apply it. A name line, watermark, or end card that audio9 places on a clip is part of that disclosure. Do not strip it in order to hide the source.

10. Reports

Use Report on the song page, or email support@audio9.io. Include the link, what is wrong, and, if you are the rightsholder or the person depicted, how we can reach you. We review reports. We may remove the song, limit the account, or do both. We are not obliged to act on an incomplete or bad-faith report, and we may not describe the outcome in detail. If you are in immediate danger, contact local emergency services. We are not an emergency service. Do not use the report button to harass a creator.

11. Copyright and other rights notices

If you believe material on the Service infringes your copyright, email support@audio9.io with: your name and a way to reach you; a description of the work you own; the audio9 URL; a statement that you believe the use is not authorized by the owner, the owner’s agent, or the law; a statement, under penalty of perjury where that standard applies, that the notice is accurate and that you are the owner or their agent; and your physical or electronic signature. If United States law requires a designated agent and a separate registration, we will publish that agent. Until then, this address receives notices, and we will not ignore a notice that has the information above.

If you are the uploader and you believe a removal was a mistake, you may send a counter notice with the URL, your contact details, a statement under penalty of perjury where that law applies that the material was removed by mistake or misidentification, and your consent to jurisdiction as that law requires. We may restore the material when the law tells us to. We may close accounts that repeatedly infringe. For portrait, privacy, trademark, or other rights, use the same address. Explain the right, the URL, and your relationship to the person or the mark.

12. Minors

Sexual content involving anyone under 18 is forbidden, with no exception for fiction, “aging up”, or a claim that the person consented. If you see child sexual abuse material, report it and do not download or forward it. We report that material to the appropriate authority, including the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children where United States law applies, and we delete it. We do not keep it for creative review.

13. Sanctions and export

You may not use the Service if you are in a place, or on a list, that applicable sanctions law forbids us to serve, or if you would use the Service for a prohibited end use. We may block regions or accounts in order to comply. You will not export the software or the models except as the law allows.

14. How we enforce this

We may refuse a generation, unpublish a song, remove a voice or a photo, or close an account. We may keep a record of the violation for safety and to detect a repeat. Serious cases, including minors and fraud, may be referred to authorities. We do not promise to see every song. Filters will miss things, and they will sometimes stop something that was allowed. A block is not an admission that nearby content was legal, and a miss is not an approval.

15. Changes

We may update this Agreement together with the Terms. The date at the top is the current version. If you keep using the Service on or after the effective date, you accept the update. Safety rules apply to content still on the Service even if it was generated earlier. Contact support@audio9.io.
