Draft: pending legal review. This document describes Peelaway's current practices accurately, but it has not been reviewed by a lawyer and is not legal advice. Have counsel review it for your jurisdiction before you rely on it publicly.
Terms of Service
Last updated July 6, 2026
These Terms of Service (the "Terms") are a binding agreement between you and Peelaway ("Peelaway", "we", "us", or "our") governing your access to and use of the Peelaway image-editing API, website, dashboard, and related services (together, the "Service"). Please read them carefully. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Acceptance of these Terms
By creating an account, generating an API key, or otherwise accessing or using the Service, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms and by our Privacy Policy and Cookie Notice, which are incorporated here by reference.
You must be at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction (and in any event at least 18) and legally able to enter into a contract. If you use the Service on behalf of a company or other organization, you represent that you are authorized to bind that organization, and "you" refers to that organization.
2. The Service
Peelaway is a prompt-driven image-editing platform. You submit one or more images together with text instructions (a "prompt"), and the Service processes those images according to your instructions using automated and AI-based models and returns edited results (the "Output"). The Service is available both through our website dashboard and through a programmatic API intended for developers and their applications and agents.
The Service relies on third-party artificial-intelligence models to perform edits. AI-generated results are inherently probabilistic and may be inaccurate, unexpected, incomplete, or unsuitable for your intended use. You are responsible for reviewing all Output before you rely on or publish it.
3. Accounts, API keys, and security
To use most features you must create an account using email and password or by signing in with GitHub. You agree to provide accurate information and to keep it current. You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and API keys and for all activity that occurs under them.
API keys are secrets that authenticate requests and consume your credits. Treat them like passwords, do not embed them in client-side code or public repositories, and rotate or revoke them from your dashboard if you suspect compromise. Notify us promptly at hello@peelaway.io of any unauthorized use. We are not liable for losses arising from your failure to secure your credentials.
4. Your content and the license you grant us
"Your Content" means the images, masks, prompts, and other materials you submit to the Service. As between you and Peelaway, you retain all ownership and intellectual-property rights in Your Content. We do not claim ownership of it.
You grant Peelaway a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to host, store, transmit, reproduce, and process Your Content, and to share it with the sub-processors that power the Service (such as our storage, hosting, and AI-inference providers), solely to operate, provide, secure, and support the Service for you. This license exists only to deliver the Service and ends when Your Content is deleted, subject to routine backups and legal-retention obligations described in our Privacy Policy.
We do not sell Your Content, and we do not use Your Content, your images, or your prompts to train, fine-tune, or improve any AI model.
5. Ownership of Output and our intellectual property
As between you and Peelaway, and to the extent permitted by law, you own the Output generated from Your Content, subject to your having the necessary rights in the inputs and subject to the terms of the underlying AI model providers. You are responsible for determining whether your use of Output is lawful in your context; ownership of AI-assisted Output can raise novel copyright questions, and we make no representation that Output is protectable or free of third-party rights.
The Service itself, including our software, APIs, website, models integration, branding, and documentation, is owned by Peelaway or our licensors and is protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms grant you no rights in the Service other than the limited right to use it in accordance with these Terms.
6. Your responsibilities and rights in submitted images
You represent and warrant that, for every image and prompt you submit, you own the necessary rights or have obtained all permissions, licenses, and consents required to submit it and to use the resulting Output, including rights in any copyrighted works, trademarks, and the likeness, name, or personal data of identifiable people depicted.
7. Acceptable use
You agree not to use the Service, and not to permit anyone using your account to use it, to:
- Upload, edit, or generate content that is unlawful, infringing, defamatory, or that violates the intellectual-property, privacy, publicity, or other rights of any third party;
- Process images you do not own or otherwise have permission to edit, or use Output in a way that infringes another person's rights;
- Remove, obscure, or alter watermarks, copyright notices, credentials, provenance signals, or other protections where you are not authorized to do so;
- Create or distribute non-consensual intimate imagery, sexual content involving minors, or deceptive deepfakes intended to defraud, harass, impersonate, or mislead;
- Produce content that promotes violence, hate, harassment, self-harm, or that is otherwise harmful, abusive, or in violation of applicable law;
- Circumvent, disable, or interfere with credit metering, rate limits, security, or billing controls, or attempt to access accounts, data, or systems that are not yours;
- Reverse engineer, decompile, scrape, or attempt to extract source code or the underlying models, except to the extent this restriction is prohibited by law;
- Resell, sublicense, or provide the Service to third parties except as expressly permitted, or use it to build a competing service; or
- Use the Service in any way that could damage, disable, overburden, or impair it, or that violates any applicable law or regulation.
We may investigate suspected violations and may suspend, restrict, or terminate access, remove content, and report unlawful activity to the authorities where appropriate.
8. Third-party services
The Service integrates independent third parties to function: Replicate (AI image inference), Cloudflare (hosting and image storage), Polar (payments and checkout), and GitHub (optional sign-in). Your use of the Service via these providers may also be subject to their terms, and we are not responsible for their services, availability, or acts and omissions. See our Privacy Policy for how data is shared with these sub-processors.
9. Credits, plans, and billing
Usage of the Service is metered in credits. Each edit consumes credits based on the operation performed. New accounts receive a one-time complimentary credit allotment. You can obtain additional credits by purchasing a subscription plan, which grants a recurring monthly credit allowance, or by buying one-time credit packs or a custom credit amount.
Payments are processed by our payment provider, Polar, which acts as merchant of record. Peelaway does not collect or store your full card details. All prices, credit amounts, renewal terms, and any credit-expiry terms are shown at checkout and control your purchase.
- Subscriptions renew automatically each billing period at the then-current price until cancelled, and each renewal grants that period's credit allowance;
- Monthly subscription credits are intended to be used within the billing cycle and do not accumulate indefinitely; one-time credit-pack credits remain valid for the period stated at checkout (currently 12 months from purchase) unless otherwise noted;
- You are responsible for any applicable taxes, which may be added at checkout;
- We may change plans, credit rates, and pricing prospectively; where required we will give notice, and continued use or renewal after a change constitutes acceptance.
10. Cancellation and refunds
You may cancel a subscription at any time from your account settings. Cancellation stops future renewals; your plan remains active through the end of the current paid period, after which it will not renew. Except where required by applicable consumer-protection law or expressly stated otherwise, payments and consumed credits are non-refundable. We may, at our discretion, issue refunds or credits in cases of billing error or service failure.
11. Service availability and beta features
We work to keep the Service available and reliable, but we do not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free operation. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue features, or perform maintenance, at any time. Features labeled beta, preview, or experimental are provided for evaluation, may change or be withdrawn, and may be less reliable than generally available features.
12. Disclaimer of warranties
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Service and all Output are provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, whether express, implied, or statutory, including any implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, accuracy, and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the Service will meet your requirements, that Output will be accurate or suitable for your purpose, or that the Service will be secure, uninterrupted, or error-free. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties, so some of these exclusions may not apply to you.
13. Limitation of liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Peelaway and its officers, employees, and suppliers will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, exemplary, or punitive damages, or for any loss of profits, revenue, data, goodwill, or business, arising out of or relating to the Service or these Terms, even if advised of the possibility of such damages. Our total aggregate liability for all claims relating to the Service will not exceed the greater of the amounts you paid to Peelaway in the twelve months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or one hundred U.S. dollars (USD 100). Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.
14. Indemnification
You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Peelaway and its personnel from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of or related to: (a) Your Content and the images and prompts you submit; (b) your use of the Service or Output; (c) your violation of these Terms or any applicable law; or (d) your infringement of the rights of any third party.
15. Suspension and termination
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time from your account settings, which permanently removes your data as described in the Privacy Policy. We may suspend or terminate your access, with or without notice, if you breach these Terms, create risk or legal exposure for us, or fail to pay amounts due. Upon termination your right to use the Service ends; provisions that by their nature should survive, including content licenses granted to us for already-processed data, disclaimers, limitations of liability, indemnities, and governing-law terms, will survive.
16. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we make material changes we will update the "Last updated" date above and, where appropriate, provide additional notice. Changes take effect when posted, and your continued use of the Service after they take effect constitutes acceptance.
17. Governing law and disputes
These Terms and any dispute arising out of them or the Service will be governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which Peelaway is established, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, and you agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located there, except where mandatory local consumer-protection law provides otherwise. The specific governing law, venue, and any arbitration or class-action-waiver terms should be finalized with legal counsel before public launch.
18. Miscellaneous
These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy and Cookie Notice, are the entire agreement between you and Peelaway regarding the Service. If any provision is held unenforceable, the remaining provisions stay in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign these Terms without our consent; we may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets. Neither party is liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond its reasonable control.
