Submission terms
In short: you keep owning your clip, but by submitting it you let Bad AI use it however we like, forever, without paying you. You promise it's yours to give and it doesn't hurt anyone.
1. The license you give us
When you submit a clip, you grant Bad AI and the people who run it a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to use the clip in any way. That includes copying, editing, cutting, combining it with other clips, adding commentary, captions, music or effects, and publishing, distributing and monetizing it on any website, social platform or other media, now known or developed later. We may also let platforms and partners show it as part of our posts, and we may pass these rights to anyone we work with or to a future owner of the channel.
The license is non-exclusive. You still own your clip and can keep posting it yourself.
2. What you promise
- You are 18 or older.
- You made the clip, and you have the right to grant this license, including under the terms of the AI tool that generated it.
- The clip does not show or imitate any real, identifiable person (including their face or voice) unless that person has agreed.
- It contains no minors, nudity or sexual content, hate, harassment, or anything illegal.
- It doesn't include anyone else's copyrighted material, like music, film clips, logos or characters, that you don't have rights to.
If any of these turn out to be untrue, you're responsible for the problems that causes, and we may remove the clip.
3. Credit
If you check "Credit me," we'll try to name you or your channel when we post your clip, for example in the caption or on screen. If you leave it unchecked, we won't name you. We do our best, but a credit can get left out by accident, and we can't control copies others make of our posts.
4. No promises, no payment
We aren't obliged to use your clip, and we don't pay for submissions. Sending a clip doesn't create any partnership or employment.
5. How we handle your link and email
We use your YouTube link only to download your clip, and your email only to contact you about it. We don't sell your details or add you to a mailing list. Keep the video unlisted, not deleted, until we've downloaded it.
6. Removal requests
The license can't be withdrawn. But if you have a real reason, like a person in the clip who no longer wants to be in it, message us through the Bad AI YouTube channel and we'll consider taking down our own posts of it.
7. Changes
We may update these terms for future submissions. The version shown at the top of this page when you submitted is the one that applies to your clip.
