What it is

Suno allows you to create an AI model of your own voice, but strictly prohibits creating voice models of other people. Suno can remove your voice model at any time if it believes it is not your voice.

This analysis describes what Suno's agreement states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability and practical outcomes may vary by jurisdiction, enforcement context, and individual circumstances. Read our methodology

ConductAtlas Analysis

Why it matters (compliance & governance perspective)

This clause is designed to prevent deepfake voice abuse and protects both users and third parties from having their voices cloned without consent, though enforcement relies on Suno's unilateral discretion.

Interpretive note: The terms do not specify how Suno determines whether a Voice Model is the user's own voice, and the retention and deletion terms for voice data are deferred to a separate Privacy Policy, creating uncertainty about the full scope of biometric data obligations.

Consumer impact (what this means for users)

If you upload audio of another person's voice to create a Voice Model, you are in breach of the Terms and Suno can remove the model and potentially terminate your account. The clause also means Suno retains sole discretion to determine whether a Voice Model is genuinely yours, with no stated appeals process.

What you can do

⚠️ These actions may provide transparency or partial mitigation but may not fully address the underlying issue. Effectiveness varies by jurisdiction and individual circumstances.
  • Delete Your Data
    To request deletion of your Voice Model data, access your account settings on the Suno platform or contact Suno's support team through the site. Review the Privacy Policy at https://www.suno.ai/privacy for specific data deletion rights and procedures applicable to your jurisdiction.

Our Service may allow you to create a voice model resembling your own voice that can be used with Output ("Voice Model"). If you want to use the Service to create a Voice Model, you will need to upload Submissions that include audio recordings of your voice. By creating a Voice Model, you agree that you are directing the Service to create a means by which to imitate or resemble your voice. You agree that you can only create a Voice Model resembling your own voice. To be clear – this means that you expressly agree not to create, or attempt to create, a voice model of another person and you will not upload any Submission that includes an audio recording of another person's voice when creating your Voice Model. We reserve the right to remove your Voice Model at any time if we determine in our sole discretion it is not your own voice.
