Terms of Service
Last updated May 11, 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your use of Magical Script (“the Service”), operated by Magical Script (“we”, “us”). By joining the waitlist or using the beta, you agree to these Terms.
1. Beta service
The Service is in beta. It may change without notice, may be unavailable for periods, and may produce results that are unexpected, incomplete, or unsuitable for your intended use. We do not guarantee uptime, performance, or render quality during the beta. Use of the Service is at your own risk.
2. Eligibility
You must be at least 16 years old (or the age of digital consent in your jurisdiction, whichever is older) to use the Service. By using the Service, you represent that you meet this requirement.
3. Your content
3.1 Ownership stays with you
You retain all ownership and intellectual property rights in the scripts, treatments, loglines, beat sheets, reference images, and other materials you upload to the Service (“Your Content”), and in the AI-generated outputs produced from Your Content (“Outputs”). To the extent any rights in Outputs would otherwise vest in us, we assign them to you.
3.2 License you grant us
You grant us a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide license to host, store, process, display, transmit, and modify Your Content solely as needed to operate, maintain, and improve the Service for you. This license terminates when you delete Your Content from the Service or close your account, except to the extent we are required by law to retain copies.
3.3 No training
We do not use Your Content or Outputs to train AI models, our own or any third party's, except where you explicitly opt in to a feature that requires it (e.g. training a private LoRA on your locked character references — and that LoRA remains your asset).
4. Your responsibilities
4.1 Rights to upload
You represent and warrant that you own, or have all necessary rights, licenses, consents, and permissions to upload, use, and process Your Content through the Service. This includes any underlying screenplays, source novels, music, sound, likenesses of real people, trademarks, and any other third-party material referenced in or generated from Your Content.
4.2 Acceptable use
You agree not to use the Service to create, upload, or generate:
- Child sexual abuse material (CSAM) or material that sexualizes minors.
- Non-consensual sexual imagery, deepfakes, or impersonations of real people without their explicit, documented consent.
- Content that infringes any third-party intellectual property right.
- Defamatory content about identifiable real people.
- Content intended to harass, threaten, or incite violence against any person or group.
- Material designed to deceive in ways that cause material harm (e.g. election disinformation, fake medical claims, fraudulent endorsements).
- Malware, exploits, or content intended to circumvent the Service's safety controls.
We may remove material that violates these rules and suspend or terminate accounts associated with violations, with or without notice.
4.3 Third-party platform rules
If you publish Outputs on a third-party platform (TikTok, YouTube, Instagram, festival submissions, etc.), you are responsible for complying with that platform's rules — including any disclosure requirements for AI-generated content. The C2PA provenance manifest attached to every Output makes that disclosure straightforward.
5. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold us, our employees, contractors, agents, and subprocessors harmless from any claim, demand, loss, liability, damage, or expense (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to:
- Your Content (including any third-party rights in or claims about it).
- Your use of the Service in violation of these Terms.
- Your violation of any law or regulation.
- Your violation of any third party's rights, including IP, privacy, or publicity rights.
We will promptly notify you of any claim subject to this indemnity and cooperate in your defense (at your expense). You may not settle any claim without our prior written consent if the settlement imposes any obligation on us beyond payment.
6. Our IP
The Service itself — software, models, infrastructure, design, documentation, brand assets — is owned by us or our licensors. These Terms do not grant you any rights to that IP except the right to use the Service in accordance with these Terms.
7. Outputs and provenance
Every Output produced by the Service carries a C2PA 2.0 provenance manifest documenting the model, prompt, references, and version that produced it. This metadata is part of the Output and travels with the file.
Outputs are AI-generated. They may include unintended similarities to existing works; you are responsible for clearing any third-party rights before public distribution.
8. Beta-tier rights
During beta, Outputs may be used by you in pitches, festival submissions, social media, and similar non-broadcast uses. Theatrical and broadcast-grade rights are part of a separate tier on the roadmap. We will notify beta users when that tier becomes available.
9. Disclaimers
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE. We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or that Outputs will meet your expectations.
10. Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU TO US IN THE 12 MONTHS BEFORE THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO LIABILITY (OR USD $100, IF YOU HAVE NOT PAID US ANYTHING). IN NO EVENT WILL WE BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, OR GOODWILL.
11. Termination
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you breach these Terms, violate the law, or pose a risk to other users or to the Service. Sections 3.1, 4, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, and 13 survive termination.
12. Changes to these Terms
We will update these Terms as the Service evolves. Material changes are emailed to active users at least 14 days before they take effect; continued use of the Service after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
13. Governing law and disputes
These Terms are governed by the laws of [Operator's jurisdiction]. Disputes will be resolved in the courts of that jurisdiction, unless mandatory consumer-protection law in your residence requires otherwise.
Note: this is a beta-stage Terms of Service. As we open paid tiers and operate at scale, this governing-law clause and the dispute resolution mechanism will be updated to reflect the actual operating entity.
