Terms of service

1. Acceptance of terms

By accessing our website (speedpaint.org), creating an account, generating videos, or purchasing generation credits, you agree to these Terms of Service.

These Terms of Service ("Terms") incorporate our Privacy policy, our Refund and cancellation policy, and our Shipping and delivery policy. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use Speedpaint.

2. Description of software and services

Speedpaint is an animation and computational drawing engine. The software analyzes user-submitted photographs and digital artwork, extracts vector stroke paths through edge detection, skeletonization, and artist trajectory planning, and renders whiteboard and pencil sketch drawing animation videos in MP4 format.

All computations and rendering operations are executed on cloud compute servers. All outputs are delivered electronically to your account dashboard and creations library.

3. Account registration, age eligibility, and security

To use the creation studio and render animations, you must register for a Speedpaint account. You agree to:

• Provide accurate and complete registration information (including a valid email address).
• Maintain the confidentiality of your authentication credentials and session tokens.
• Promptly report any suspected security breach or unauthorized access via our Support center.
• Be at least 18 years old to purchase credits. If you are under 18 years of age, you may access the service only with the consent and supervision of a parent or legal guardian.

4. Intellectual property and creator content rights

All website software, user interface components, algorithms, backend rendering code, trademarks, logos, and platform infrastructure remain the exclusive intellectual property of Parv Shah.

5. Processing of user assets

We respect creative privacy. Your uploaded photos, extracted stroke vectors, and rendered animation files are processed solely to deliver your requested drawing animation video and maintain your library. Speedpaint does not sell, rent, or use your submitted creative assets to train proprietary public generative AI foundation models.

6. Generation credits, pricing, and payment terms

Speedpaint operates on a pay-as-you-go credit pack model to cover cloud computing and GPU rendering costs:

• One-time credit packs: Purchases (Starter $5.00, Creator $10.00, Pro $25.00, Studio $50.00, or Custom packs from $1.00 USD) are one-time transactions. Credits remain available until used, subject to the terms below.
• Credit lifespan: Purchased credits remain available in your account as long as your account remains active and in good standing.
• Payment processing: All payments are processed through our certified payment partner, Razorpay (Razorpay Software Private Limited), compliant with RBI guidelines and PCI-DSS standards. We do not store or process your credit card numbers, CVVs, or NetBanking credentials on our servers.
• Digital fulfillment: Generation credits are added to your account balance after the payment is successfully captured and verified.

7. Failed render automatic credit restoration

Credits are held when a drawing animation job is admitted. The hold becomes a charge only when the video renders and saves successfully. If a worker crashes, a server timeout occurs, or the video cannot be completed, the full hold is automatically restored to your balance without requiring manual support intervention.

8. Refund and cancellation policy

Refunds are governed by our dedicated Refund and cancellation policy. We provide a voluntary 24-hour refund policy for fully unused credit packs. Once a completed video has been created after purchase, the pack is treated as used. Approved refunds are credited directly back to the original payment source via Razorpay within 5 to 7 business working days, preserving all applicable statutory consumer rights.

9. Acceptable use and prohibited activities

In accordance with Rule 3(1)(b) of the Information Technology (Intermediary Guidelines and Digital Media Ethics Code) Rules, 2021, you agree not to host, upload, modify, or transmit any content that:

• Belongs to another person without authorization or infringes upon any patent, trademark, copyright, or proprietary right.
