This page describes what the document states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
This is the Terms of Use agreement for Stability AI, the company behind AI image and content generation tools like Stable Diffusion. By using Stability AI's services, you grant the company a license to content you submit, agree to restrictions on how you can use AI-generated outputs, and accept that the company can suspend your access at any time. If you use any Stability AI product or service, review the Acceptable Use Policy carefully, as violations can result in immediate account termination.
This document governs access to and use of Stability AI's website, products, and AI services, establishing a contractual relationship between Stability AI (a UK-registered entity) and users who access its platforms. The terms authorize Stability AI to collect user data, impose usage restrictions on AI-generated outputs, reserve the right to modify or suspend access without prior notice, and require users to comply with an Acceptable Use Policy governing permissible content generation. The agreement includes a broad intellectual property clause granting Stability AI a license to user-submitted content, and the liability limitation provisions cap the company's financial exposure while placing significant responsibility on users for outputs generated through the platform. The document engages GDPR and UK GDPR frameworks given Stability AI's UK registration and likely EU user base, as well as FTC consumer protection standards for US users, and the EU AI Act given the AI generative nature of the services; jurisdictional applicability of specific consumer protection carve-outs will depend on where users are located. Material compliance considerations include the adequacy of consent mechanisms for data processing of user inputs, the scope of the content license relative to GDPR data subject rights, and alignment of the Acceptable Use Policy with emerging AI-specific regulatory obligations under the EU AI Act.
