Terms of Service

• •Payment method as age verification: Subscribers provide a valid payment method (such as a credit card) at checkout. Pebcrow reasonably relies on the issuing institution's verification that the cardholder is an adult. Submission of a payment method is your affirmative representation that you are an adult and that the payment method is yours to use.
• •Responsibility for minors: If you are a subscriber, you are solely responsible for ensuring that no minor uses your account, payment method, or any content (including AI-generated games) accessed through your account. You agree to indemnify Pebcrow against any claim arising from a minor's access to or exposure to content through your account.
• •No marketing to children: Pebcrow does not knowingly market the Services to, or accept registrations from, anyone under the age of 18. If we learn that an account belongs to someone under 18, we will terminate that account and delete associated data. To report suspected underage use, contact abuse@pebcrow.com.
• •Mature content acknowledgement: You acknowledge that the Services may produce, display, or facilitate access to content that is mature, provocative, controversial, sexually suggestive, violent, or otherwise unsuitable for minors. You voluntarily and knowingly accept exposure to such content as a condition of use.

You expressly acknowledge and agree that:

• •AI is imperfect. Content on the platform is generated, processed, and moderated by artificial intelligence models. AI-generated and AI-processed content may contain errors, inaccuracies, biases, hallucinations (fabricated information presented as fact), or material you find offensive. Pebcrow does not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, truthfulness, age-appropriateness, or suitability of any content for any particular purpose. You must not rely on any platform content as factual, accurate, or authoritative.
• •Best-effort moderation, not a guarantee.Pebcrow employs automated scrubbing and moderation systems intended to reduce the likelihood of illegal, pornographic, or unsafe output. These systems are not perfect, and Pebcrow makes no guarantee that any individual output will be free of offensive or objectionable content. You assume the risk of encountering such content.
• •Voluntary risk assumption. You voluntarily and knowingly assume all risk associated with viewing, reading, playing, or engaging with content on the platform. Pebcrow shall not be liable for any emotional distress, offense, psychological harm, embarrassment, or any other damages arising from your exposure to content on the platform.
• •No professional advice. The Services are not, and are not intended to substitute for, professional medical, mental health, legal, financial, or other licensed professional advice. Do not use the platform as a substitute for professional care or counsel.
• •Views are not Pebcrow's. The views, opinions, and content expressed on the platform — whether by users or AI systems — do not represent the views, opinions, or endorsements of Pebcrow, Inc., its officers, directors, employees, or affiliates.
• •Content may be transformed. Content may be modified, transformed, summarized, scrubbed, or otherwise processed by AI systems at any time without notice. The final published or displayed form of any content may differ substantially from what was originally submitted or generated.
• •Don't submit sensitive information. Do not enter passwords, financial account numbers, government identifiers, medical information, or other sensitive personal data into prompts or content fields. You are responsible for what you submit and for the consequences of including sensitive information in your inputs.

Pebcrow Play allows you to submit input prompts that cause the Services to generate games, game fixes, images, narratives, and other outputs ("Generated Content"). The economics, infrastructure, model providers, moderation systems, and ongoing operation of Pebcrow Play are provided by Pebcrow at significant cost.

• •Ownership of outputs. All Generated Content, including without limitation generated games, game logic, game art, game text, generated images, generated music, and any derivative artifacts produced by the Services in response to your prompts or actions, is owned exclusively by Pebcrow, Inc. To the extent any rights in Generated Content would otherwise vest in you under law, you hereby irrevocably assign all such rights to Pebcrow.
• •Your input prompt. The text of the prompt you yourself wrote is User Content under Section 4. You retain whatever ownership rights you have in that text, and Pebcrow takes the broad license described in Section 4. This retention applies only to the prompt text itself — it does not extend to any Generated Content produced from the prompt, and it does not obligate Pebcrow to host, preserve, restore, or provide continued access to the prompt. Pebcrow may delete the prompt at any time without notice and without recourse to you.
• •Limited license to play. Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Pebcrow grants you a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable license to access and play your Generated Content on the Pebcrow platform during the period your account is in good standing. This license terminates automatically when your access to the Services ends, when Pebcrow removes the Generated Content, or when Pebcrow otherwise revokes it.
• •Output non-exclusivity. Generated Content is not exclusive to you. Because outputs are produced by AI systems acting on prompts, other users submitting similar prompts may receive outputs that are similar, substantially similar, or in some cases identical to yours. Pebcrow makes no commitment of uniqueness, originality, exclusivity, or non-overlap of any Generated Content.
• •No redistribution, no rehosting, no commercial use.You shall not copy, download (except as necessary for normal play on the platform), distribute, rehost, mirror, publicly display, publicly perform, sell, license, sublicense, monetize, screen-record for redistribution, scrape, mine, or reverse-engineer any Generated Content. You shall not embed Generated Content in any product or service outside the Pebcrow platform. You shall not use Generated Content as training data for any model or system not operated by Pebcrow.
• •Removal without recourse. Pebcrow may modify, restrict, take down, delete, or permanently destroy any Generated Content at any time, for any reason or no reason, with or without notice, and without any liability to you. Reasons may include, but are not limited to, content Pebcrow deems inappropriate, unsafe, illegal, off-brand, infringing, or simply no longer desirable to host. You waive any and all claims, of any kind, arising from removal or loss of Generated Content.
• •No appeal of moderation. Decisions to remove or restrict Generated Content are made at Pebcrow's sole discretion and are final. Pebcrow has no obligation to explain, justify, or appeal such decisions.
• •You chose the prompt. Generated Content is produced in response to inputs that you supply. You are responsible for the prompts you submit, for the foreseeable range of outputs they may produce, and for ensuring your prompts and the resulting Generated Content do not violate these Terms, the Usage Policy, or applicable law. Pebcrow makes no warranty that any Generated Content will be safe, appropriate, lawful, inoffensive, age-appropriate, or fit for any particular purpose.
• •Credits and entitlements. Play credits, subscriber priority credits, and similar entitlements are licenses to request a capped amount of generation. They are not property, are not redeemable for cash, do not earn interest, do not roll over except as expressly stated, expire as stated in the entitlement, and may be modified, reduced, or revoked by Pebcrow at any time. Unused credits have no monetary value.

The Services use third-party providers, including AI model vendors, cloud infrastructure, payment processors (Stripe), authentication providers (Google), and content delivery networks. By using the Services, you acknowledge that:

• •AI outputs are generated, in whole or in part, by third-party AI models. Pebcrow does not control the underlying model behavior and disclaims all warranties regarding third-party model outputs.
• •Your interactions with the Services may be transmitted to third-party providers for processing. Provider-side data practices are governed by their own terms and policies.
• •Pebcrow is not responsible for the acts, omissions, downtime, data breaches, or policy changes of third-party providers, and is not liable for any damages arising from third-party providers' performance.
• •Links from the Services to external websites are provided for convenience. Pebcrow does not endorse and is not responsible for any external website or its content.

Pebcrow respects intellectual property rights and complies with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), 17 U.S.C. §512. If you believe content on the Services infringes a copyright you own or control, send a written notice to our designated DMCA agent containing the information required by 17 U.S.C. §512(c)(3):

1. A physical or electronic signature of the copyright owner or authorized agent;
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been infringed;
3. Identification of the allegedly infringing material and information sufficient to locate it on the Services;
4. Your contact information (name, address, telephone, email);
5. A statement of good-faith belief that the use is not authorized by the owner, agent, or the law; and
6. A statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the owner.

Pebcrow will respond to properly submitted notices in accordance with the DMCA, which may include removing or disabling access to the material. Repeat infringers will have their accounts terminated. If you believe content you submitted was wrongly removed, you may submit a counter-notice meeting the requirements of 17 U.S.C. §512(g). Knowingly submitting a false notice or counter-notice subjects you to liability for damages under 17 U.S.C. §512(f).

Pebcrow reserves the right to modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated by updating the Effective Date and, where appropriate, by in-product notice or email. It is your responsibility to review these Terms periodically. Your continued use of the Services after any changes constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.

Pebcrow further reserves the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any aspect of the Services at any time, including the availability of any feature, database, model, Generated Content, or content, without prior notice or liability.

Service availability. The Services are offered from the United States and are intended for users in the United States. The Services are not directed at, marketed to, or offered to residents of the European Economic Area, the United Kingdom, or Switzerland, and Pebcrow may technically restrict access from those territories. By creating an account, you represent that you are not a resident of those territories. Pebcrow makes no representation that the Services are appropriate or available for use in any particular jurisdiction. Where you access the Services from a jurisdiction in which they are not offered, you do so on your own initiative and at your own risk, and you are responsible for compliance with local law.

Export controls and sanctions. You represent and warrant that you are not located in, and are not a national or resident of, any country subject to a U.S. Government embargo or designated as a "terrorist-supporting" country, and that you are not listed on any U.S. Government list of prohibited or restricted parties. You agree to comply with all applicable U.S. and foreign export control laws and regulations in connection with your use of the Services.

Beta and experimental features. Pebcrow may from time to time make features available that are identified as "beta," "preview," "experimental," "alpha," or similar ("Beta Features"). Beta Features are provided strictly "as is" with no warranty of any kind, may change or be removed at any time without notice, may produce unexpected behavior, and may not preserve data created through them. Disclaimers and limitations of liability in these Terms apply with full force to Beta Features and any output generated through them.

Feedback. If you send Pebcrow any suggestions, ideas, feature requests, comments, bug reports, or other feedback about the Services ("Feedback"), you grant Pebcrow a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable, transferable license to use, modify, and exploit the Feedback for any purpose, without obligation to credit or compensate you. You waive any claim that any feature, product, or service Pebcrow later builds was derived from your Feedback.

Brand and trademarks. "Pebcrow," "Pebcrow Think," "Pebcrow Play," and the Pebcrow logos and visual style are trademarks of Pebcrow, Inc. You may not use Pebcrow trademarks, logos, or visual style except in accurate, descriptive references to the Services (for example, "I made this on Pebcrow Play"), and you may not use them in a way that suggests endorsement, affiliation, or sponsorship by Pebcrow without our prior written consent. You may not impersonate Pebcrow, Pebcrow staff, or Pebcrow-operated accounts; create products or services whose name, branding, or appearance is likely to be confused with Pebcrow's; or register domain names, social media handles, or app names that incorporate Pebcrow's trademarks without authorization.

API keys and credentials. You are solely responsible for keeping API keys, access tokens, and account credentials confidential and for all activity conducted using them, whether or not you authorized that activity. Promptly notify abuse@pebcrow.com if you suspect a key or account has been compromised.

Severability: If any provision of these Terms is found to be unenforceable or invalid, that provision shall be limited or eliminated to the minimum extent necessary so that these Terms shall otherwise remain in full force and effect.

Entire Agreement: These Terms, together with the Usage Policy and Privacy Policy, constitute the entire agreement between you and Pebcrow regarding the Services and supersede all prior agreements, understandings, and communications.

No Waiver: Pebcrow's failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision.

Assignment: You may not assign or transfer these Terms without Pebcrow's prior written consent. Pebcrow may assign these Terms without restriction.

Survival: Sections covering ownership, licenses granted, Generated Content, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, dispute resolution, and any other provision that by its nature should survive, will survive termination of these Terms.

Force Majeure: Pebcrow shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations due to causes beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, riots, embargoes, acts of civil or military authority, fire, floods, epidemics, strikes, cyberattacks, or failures of third-party service providers or infrastructure.

Notices: Notices to Pebcrow must be sent to legal@pebcrow.com. Notices to you may be delivered by email to the address associated with your account or by in-product notice.
