Usage Restrictions

Last updated: March 21, 2025

We recognize that, regardless of the user's good intentions, technology can amplify the potential to cause significant harm. Therefore, we have established this policy. We feel an ethical responsibility to counteract such harm: both in terms of addressing instances where perchanceai.art is used (and misused) to further such harm, and to clearly state that the products we create at perchanceai.art are not safe havens for those wishing to commit such harm. If you have an account with any of our products, you are prohibited from using them for any of the restricted purposes listed below. If we discover that you are, we will take action.

Restricted purposes

  • Child exploitation, sexualization, or abuse: We do not tolerate any activities that create, disseminate, or otherwise cause child abuse. Stay away and stop.
  • Hate speech: You cannot use our products to advocate for the extermination, domination, or oppression of people. Exploiting, harming, or attempting to exploit or harm minors in any way is prohibited.
  • Violence, or threats thereof: If an activity qualifies as a violent crime under any applicable EU, national, federal, state, local, or international law or regulation, you may not use perchanceai.art products to plan, perpetrate, or threaten that activity.
  • Harassment: Intimidating or targeting individuals or groups through repeated communication, including using racial slurs or dehumanizing language, is not allowed at perchanceai.art.
  • Malware or spyware: Code for good, not evil. If you are using our products to create or distribute anything that qualifies as malware or spyware — including remote user surveillance — you need to stop.
  • Doxing: If you are using perchanceai.art products to share other people's private personal information for the purposes of harassment, we want no part of it.
  • Cybersquatting: We do not tolerate username extortionists. If you purchase an perchanceai.art product account in someone else's name and then attempt to sell that account to them, you are cybersquatting. Such accounts are subject to immediate cancellation.
  • Phishing or otherwise attempting fraud: It is unacceptable to lie about who you are or who you are affiliated with to steal from, extort, or otherwise harm others.
  • Infringing on intellectual property: You cannot use perchanceai.art products to create or disseminate work that uses the intellectual property of others beyond the bounds of fair use.
  • Defaming others: You cannot defame, disparage, or otherwise harass others.
  • Fake news: You cannot generate or disseminate verifiably false information and/or content with the intent of harming others.
  • Additionally, you agree not to use the outputs of perchanceai.art and any derivatives of perchanceai.art in the following cases:
    • For fully automated decision-making that adversely impacts an individual's legal rights or otherwise creates or modifies a binding, enforceable obligation;
    • For any use intended to or which has the effect of discriminating against or harming individuals or groups based on online or offline social behavior or known or predicted personal or personality characteristics;
    • To exploit any of the vulnerabilities of a specific group of persons based on their age, social, physical, or mental characteristics, in order to materially distort the behavior of a person in that group in a manner that causes or is likely to cause that person or another person physical or psychological harm;
    • For any use intended to or which has the effect of discriminating against individuals or groups based on legally protected characteristics or categories;
    • To provide medical advice and medical results interpretation;
    • To generate or disseminate information for use in the administration of justice, law enforcement, immigration, or asylum processes, such as predicting an individual will commit fraud/crime (e.g., by text profiling, drawing causal relationships between assertions made in documents, indiscriminate and arbitrarily-targeted use).

While our use restrictions are comprehensive, they cannot be exhaustive — it is possible that an offense could defy categorization, present for the first time, or highlight a moral dilemma we had not yet considered. That said, we hope the overarching spirit is clear: perchanceai.art is not to be harnessed for harm, whether mental, physical, personal, or civic. Different points of view — philosophical, religious, and political — are welcome, but ideologies such as Nazism, communism, or hate-fueled movements anchored by oppression, violence, abuse, extermination, or domination of one group over another will not be accepted here.
