Summary

This is the Terms of Service for Luma AI's generative AI platform, covering account access, content creation, subscriptions, and API use. When using free-tier services, the agreement grants Luma a perpetual, irrevocable license to publicly display, distribute, reproduce, and create derivative works from your uploaded content (Input), while paid-tier use grants a narrower but still perpetual and irrevocable license to use Input for AI model training. Most disputes must be resolved through binding individual arbitration rather than court proceedings, and users waive the right to participate in class actions.

Technical / Legal Breakdown

This document is the Terms of Service governing use of Luma AI, Inc.'s generative AI platform, APIs, and mobile applications, constituting a legally binding contract between Luma and individual or entity customers. The agreement states that users grant Luma a worldwide, irrevocable, royalty-free, perpetual license to use Input for AI model training, product development, and aggregated data compilation, with free-tier users granting an expanded license that includes public display, distribution, and creation of derivative works of their Input. Notably, the agreement states that account deletion does not affect licenses already granted with respect to Input incorporated into Luma's systems or models prior to deletion, and the perpetual, irrevocable nature of these licenses persists regardless of subscription status changes. The agreement requires binding individual arbitration for most disputes with a class action and jury trial waiver, and establishes mandatory pre-arbitration notice procedures. The document engages COPPA (with explicit notice that users under 13 are prohibited and personal data collected from minors will be deleted), CCPA and GDPR through Privacy Policy incorporation by reference, and the FTC Act with respect to consumer protection provisions; applicable law or regulatory guidance in the EU and California may constrain how certain asserted data rights and arbitration clauses apply in practice.
