Please read these Terms of Use (“Terms”) carefully before using the Service. These Terms form a binding agreement between you and DreamLayer Labs Inc.
These Terms contain the entire agreement between the parties relating to their subject matter and supersede any prior agreements, negotiations, or communications, whether written or oral, relating to that subject matter. No representations, promises, warranties, agreements, conditions, or undertakings other than those set out in these Terms shall be used in their interpretation.
The division of these Terms into sections and the insertion of headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the construction or interpretation of these Terms.
Unless the context otherwise requires, the following terms and expressions shall have the meanings set forth below whenever used in these Terms. The defined terms have the same meaning whether they appear in singular or plural.
These Terms govern the use of the Service and set out the rights and obligations of all visitors, users, and others who access or use the Service. Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned on Your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms. By creating an Account, clicking to accept, or accessing or using the Service, You agree to be bound by these Terms. If You disagree with any part of these Terms, You may not access the Service.
You represent and warrant that You are at least eighteen (18) years of age, or the age of majority in Your jurisdiction, and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms. The Service is not directed to, and may not be used by, minors. If You are using the Service on behalf of an organization or other legal entity, You represent that You have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms, and all references to “You” include that entity.
Your access to and use of the Service is also conditioned on Your acceptance of and compliance with Our Privacy Policy, which describes Our policies and procedures on the collection, use, and disclosure of Your personal information and is incorporated into these Terms by reference. When You create an Account, We record the version of these Terms and of the Privacy Policy that You accepted, together with the time of acceptance.
DreamLayer is a routing layer for image models. The Service takes Your Inputs, breaks them down, and routes each request to the model We determine is best suited to it, drawing on models operated by third-party Model Providers as described in Section 10. On top of that routing layer, the Service provides: (a) tools for photographers to cull, edit, share, and deliver photo shoots; (b) AI image generation and editing tools; and (c) the Agent API, through which developers and AI agents access managed image generation and editing programmatically.
The Service is currently offered as a Beta. Features may change, be added, or be removed, and models available through the Service may be added, substituted, or removed at any time, as further described in Sections 4, 10, and 25.
The Service as a whole is currently offered as a Beta, and individual features may be designated as Beta at any time. Beta features are made available for evaluation. They may be incomplete, may be modified, suspended, or withdrawn at any time with or without notice, may be subject to additional limits or charges when so designated, and may never become generally available.
Notwithstanding anything else in these Terms, Beta features are provided strictly “AS IS” and are excluded from any availability or performance commitment. You should not rely on Beta features for time-critical or production work without maintaining an alternative. Outputs of Beta features may be less reliable than those of generally available features, and content or settings created with a Beta feature may not be preserved if the feature changes or is withdrawn. Feedback You provide about Beta features is governed by Section 13.
When You create an Account, You must provide information that is accurate, complete, and current at all times. Failure to do so constitutes a breach of these Terms, which may result in immediate termination of Your Account.
You sign in with a third-party identity provider (currently Google). You are responsible for safeguarding the credentials You use to access the Service, including Your Google account and any API keys issued to You, and for all activities that occur under Your Account. You agree not to disclose Your credentials to any third party and to notify Us immediately at mackenzie@dreamlayer.io upon becoming aware of any breach of security or unauthorized use of Your Account.
You may not register more than one Account for the purpose of obtaining additional free Credits or otherwise circumventing limits that apply to a single Account.
You keep all rights You hold in the photographs, images, prompts, and other content You bring to the Service. We do not claim ownership of Your Inputs. As between You and the Company, and to the extent permitted by applicable law and by the terms of the Model Providers involved in producing them, We assign to You, and You own, the Outputs generated for You by the Service. You are responsible for ensuring that Your intended use of Outputs is lawful and does not infringe the rights of others.
By submitting Inputs, You grant the Company a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, process, transmit, and display Your Inputs and Outputs solely as needed to operate, maintain, secure, and improve the Service and to deliver results where You direct (for example, to your own Adobe Lightroom catalog, or to people You share with via a share link). This license includes transmitting Inputs to the Model Providers involved in fulfilling Your request. We do not sell Your content. The use of Your content for model training and service improvement is addressed in Section 7.
When You cull RAW photos, Your original RAW files stay on Your computer. Your browser extracts reduced-size previews and technical metadata, and only those previews and that metadata are uploaded to Our servers. We never receive or store Your RAW originals.
You represent and warrant that:
Although We employ reasonable data-protection measures, We do not guarantee that content stored with the Service will never be lost or corrupted. You agree to maintain independent copies of any content You cannot afford to lose. Content You explicitly share via a share link can be viewed, and copies can be made, by the people You share it with; copies made into their accounts belong to their accounts.
The Service learns from Your own activity, such as Your culling selections and editing adjustments, to personalize results for Your Account (for example, matching Your editing taste on future shoots). This personalization serves only Your Account and is part of operating the Service.
You grant the Company a license to use Your Inputs and Outputs to evaluate and improve the quality of the Service’s culling, editing, and routing systems, for example tuning how shoots are grouped and scored, how edit settings are derived, and which model a given request is routed to. Content used under this section is not used to train generative models that produce content for other users.
You may opt out of service-improvement use at any time by emailing mackenzie@dreamlayer.io from the address on Your Account (an in-product setting is planned). An opt-out applies prospectively: it stops future use of Your content for service improvement, and We will exclude Your content from future training runs, but it does not require Us to discard or retrain systems already improved before the opt-out took effect.
We will not use Your photographs or other content to train generative image models, or to create models or adapters intended to reproduce an identifiable person’s likeness or Your distinctive artistic style, except under a program You separately and explicitly opt in to, with its own described scope.
We may create and use data that is de-identified and aggregated, such as usage metrics and performance statistics, that does not identify You and does not reveal Your content, for any lawful purpose, including analytics and improving the Service.
The handling of Your content by Model Providers when fulfilling Your requests is addressed in Section 10 and in the Privacy Policy; their practices are governed by their own terms.
Metered features of the Service consume Credits. There are two separate wallets:
Purchases are processed by Stripe. Prices, credit amounts, and any minimum or maximum purchase sizes are displayed at the time of purchase; the amount displayed at checkout is the amount You will be charged. You agree to provide accurate and complete billing information. Taxes may apply depending on Your jurisdiction.
Except where required by applicable law or in the case of a confirmed billing error, all Credit purchases are final and non-refundable, and Credits are not redeemable for cash. Credits are not legal tender, currency, or property; they are a prepaid, non-transferable license to use metered features of the Service. If a metered request fails or is cancelled and delivers no result, the Credits reserved for that request are restored to Your balance; that restoration is Your sole remedy for a failed request.
If You subscribe to a paid plan, You will be billed in advance on a recurring basis, and Your subscription renews automatically at the end of each billing period unless cancelled. You may cancel at any time through the billing portal in the Application or by contacting Us; upon cancellation You retain access for the remainder of the current billing period, subscription credits expire at the end of that period, and fees already paid are non-refundable except where required by law.
The Company may modify prices and credit rates. For subscriptions, fee changes take effect at the end of the current billing period, and We will provide reasonable prior notice so You have an opportunity to cancel before new fees apply. Your continued use of the Service after a fee change takes effect constitutes Your agreement to the updated pricing.
The Agent API is provided for programmatic use by You and by software agents acting on Your behalf. In addition to the rest of these Terms:
The Service routes requests to models operated by third-party Model Providers. The set of Model Providers and models changes over time; current information is available in Our documentation at docs.dreamlayer.io.
Each Model Provider publishes its own terms of service and usage policies on its website, and those terms govern that provider’s processing of requests routed to it. You agree not to violate the terms or policies of the third-party providers that power the models on the Service. The Model Providers whose models the Service may route to include, among others, Beeble, Black Forest Labs, Bria, ByteDance, fal.ai, Google, Grok (xAI), HitPaw, Ideogram, Kling, Krea, Luma, Magnific, OpenAI, Quiver, Qwen, Recraft, Reve, Runway, Topaz, Wan, and WaveSpeed. The Documentation at docs.dreamlayer.io reflects the catalog in active use at any time.
You agree not to use the Service to:
We may rate limit requests, refuse content, remove content, revoke API keys, suspend or disable Accounts, and pause managed execution globally during an active abuse or security incident, in each case as We consider necessary to enforce these Terms and protect users, the Service, or third parties.
“Confidential Information” means non-public information that one party discloses to the other under these Terms that is designated as confidential or that a reasonable person would understand to be confidential given its nature and the circumstances of disclosure. Your Confidential Information includes, for example, unreleased products, campaigns, or client work whose imagery You process through the Service; Ours includes non-public features, Beta features, pricing not publicly displayed, and security information. Confidential Information does not include information that: (a) is or becomes publicly available without breach of these Terms; (b) was known to the recipient without restriction before disclosure; (c) is independently developed by the recipient without use of the discloser’s Confidential Information; or (d) is rightfully received from a third party without a duty of confidentiality. Feedback is not Confidential Information.
Each party will protect the other’s Confidential Information using at least the degree of care it uses for its own similar information, and no less than reasonable care; will use it only to exercise its rights and perform its obligations under these Terms; and will limit access to those of its personnel and service providers who need it for those purposes and are bound by obligations at least as protective. A recipient may disclose Confidential Information where required by law or a valid order of a court or authority, provided that, where lawful, it gives the discloser prompt notice so the discloser may seek protective treatment. Our processing of Your Content in the ordinary operation of the Service, including its handling under Sections 7 and 10 and the Privacy Policy, is not a breach of this section.
The Service, including the Application, Website, and Agent API, and all original content, features, and functionality (excluding Your content) are and will remain the exclusive property of the Company and its licensors. The Service is protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws of Canada and foreign jurisdictions. The Company’s names, logos, and trade dress may not be used in connection with any product or service without Our prior written consent.
You assign to the Company all rights, title, and interest in any feedback, suggestions, ideas, or improvements You provide regarding the Service (“Feedback”). If that assignment is ineffective for any reason, You grant the Company a non-exclusive, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, worldwide license to use and exploit such Feedback without restriction or compensation.
We respect intellectual-property rights and do not permit copyright-infringing activities on the Service. If You believe content available through the Service infringes Your copyright, notify Us at mackenzie@dreamlayer.io with: (a) identification of the work claimed to be infringed; (b) identification and location of the allegedly infringing material; (c) Your contact information; (d) a statement that You have a good-faith belief the use is not authorized; and (e) a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information in Your notice is accurate and that You are the rights holder or authorized to act for the rights holder. We may remove or disable access to the material and, where appropriate, suspend or terminate repeat infringers.
Counter-notice. If material You made available was removed or disabled following a complaint and You believe the removal was the result of mistake or misidentification, or that You have the right to use the material, You may send a counter-notice to the same address containing: (a) identification of the removed material and its location before removal; (b) a statement, under penalty of perjury, of Your good-faith belief that the removal was a mistake or misidentification; (c) Your name, address, and contact information; and (d) Your consent to the dispute process described in Section 23. We may restore the material after receiving a valid counter-notice unless the original complainant informs Us within a reasonable period that it has initiated legal proceedings regarding the material. This process is operated in the spirit of applicable copyright notice regimes, including Canada’s notice-and-notice regime and, for United States rights holders, the DMCA.
The Service may contain links to, or optional integrations with, third-party websites and services that are not owned or controlled by the Company (for example, the Adobe Lightroom integration). Those websites and services are governed by their own terms and privacy policies as well as these Terms, and the Company has no control over and assumes no responsibility for their content, policies, or practices. You acknowledge and agree that the Company shall not be liable, directly or indirectly, for any damage or loss caused or alleged to be caused by or in connection with Your use of or reliance on any third-party website or service. We strongly advise You to read the terms and privacy policies of any third-party website or service You use.
You represent and warrant that You are not located in, organized under the laws of, or ordinarily resident in any country or territory that is the subject of comprehensive economic sanctions or embargoes administered by Canada, the United States, the European Union, or the United Nations, and that You are not identified on any applicable sanctions, denied-party, or export-exclusion list. You agree to comply with all applicable export control, economic sanctions, and anti-money-laundering laws in Your use of the Service, and You will not access or use the Service, or export, re-export, or transfer any software or technology made available through it, in violation of those laws, nor permit any person or entity subject to such restrictions to access the Service through Your Account or API Keys.
The Company may suspend or terminate Your Account and access to the Service immediately, without prior notice or liability, if You breach these Terms, or where reasonably necessary to protect the Service, its users, Model Providers, or third parties, or to comply with law. Upon termination, Your right to use the Service ceases immediately, and unused Credits are forfeited except where applicable law requires otherwise or where termination was solely at Our convenience and not for a breach, in which case We will work with You in good faith on a fair resolution of any purchased, unused Credits.
You may stop using the Service and close Your Account at any time by contacting Us at mackenzie@dreamlayer.io. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including Sections 6, 7, 8, 12, 13, and 18 through 27) survive.
Outputs are produced by machine-learning systems and may be inaccurate, incomplete, unexpected, or unsuitable for Your purpose. AI-generated selections, scores, and edits are suggestions: review deliverables before sending them to clients or relying on them. Similar or identical Outputs may be generated for other users from similar Inputs, and the protectability of AI-generated content varies by jurisdiction. The Service is not designed for, and We make no warranty that Outputs are suitable for, any regulated, high-risk, safety-critical, legal, medical, or financial use.
The Service is provided to You “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE”, with all faults and defects and without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted under applicable law, the Company, its affiliates, licensors, Model Providers, and service providers expressly disclaim all warranties, whether express, implied, statutory, or otherwise, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement, and warranties that may arise out of course of dealing, performance, usage, or trade practice.
Without limiting the foregoing, the Company and its affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents, partners, licensors, and Model Providers make no warranty that:
No advice or information, whether oral or written, obtained by You from the Company or through or from the Service shall create any warranty not expressly stated in these Terms.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties or limitations on statutory consumer rights; in such cases the exclusions and limitations in this section apply to the greatest extent permitted by law.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, the Company and its officers, directors, employees, affiliates, agents, suppliers, and Model Providers shall not be liable to You or to any third party for:
in each case arising out of or in any way related to Your use of or inability to use the Service, any third-party service or model integrated with the Service, or any content accessed through the Service, even if the Company has been advised of the possibility of such damages.
You agree that the Company shall not be liable to You or to any third party for any suspension of the Service or of Your Account resulting from Your non-payment of Fees or from a dispute as to the management or ownership of Your Account.
The total aggregate liability of the Company to You under these Terms shall not exceed the greater of (a) the total amount paid by You to the Company in the twelve (12) months prior to the event giving rise to the claim, or (b) one hundred Canadian dollars (CAD $100). Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages; in such cases the Company’s liability shall be limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.
You shall indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the Company and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against all claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) resulting, directly or indirectly, from: (a) Your breach of these Terms; (b) Your Inputs or Your use of Outputs; (c) Your violation of applicable law or of the rights of any third party; or (d) the acts or omissions of anyone using the Service through Your Account or API keys.
These Terms and Your use of the Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the Province of Ontario and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein, without regard to conflict-of-laws provisions.
If You have any concern or dispute relating to the Service or these Terms, You agree to first contact the Company at mackenzie@dreamlayer.io and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute informally through negotiation. If the parties cannot reach a resolution within thirty (30) days, the dispute may be submitted to the courts of the Province of Ontario, and the parties attorn to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Ontario courts. Nothing in this section prevents either party from seeking urgent injunctive relief or prevents You from exercising non-waivable rights under applicable consumer-protection law.
If any provision of these Terms is held to be illegal, invalid, or unenforceable, in whole or in part, that provision shall be modified and interpreted to accomplish its objectives to the greatest extent possible under applicable law, or severed to the extent required, and the remaining provisions continue in full force and effect. The failure or delay of either party to exercise any right or to require performance of any obligation under these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or performance, nor shall the waiver of any breach constitute a waiver of any subsequent breach.
The Company reserves the right at any time to modify or discontinue, temporarily or permanently, the Service or any part of it, with or without notice. Where a permanent discontinuation of paid features would leave purchased Credits unusable, We will provide reasonable notice and a fair resolution. Subject to that, You agree that the Company will not be liable to You or to any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Service.
We may modify or replace these Terms at any time in Our sole discretion. If a revision is material, We will make reasonable efforts to provide at least thirty (30) days’ notice before the new terms take effect, for example by notice in the Service or by email. Each version of these Terms is identified by its “Last updated” date, and the Service records which version You accepted. By continuing to access or use the Service after revisions become effective, You agree to be bound by the revised Terms; if You do not agree, please stop using the Service.
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, form the agreement described in Section 1.1. You may not assign these Terms without Our prior written consent; We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Notices to the Company must be in writing to mackenzie@dreamlayer.io; You consent to receive notices, agreements, and other communications from Us electronically, and electronic communications satisfy any legal requirement that a communication be in writing.
If You have any questions about these Terms, You may contact us at: mackenzie@dreamlayer.io. DreamLayer Labs Inc., Toronto, Ontario, Canada.
