Terms of Service

Last updated: March 29, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using the ArtifactNet API, Dashboard, or any services provided by Intrect ("Services"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use the Services.

2. Description of Services

ArtifactNet provides AI-generated audio detection through a REST API and web dashboard. The Services analyze audio files to determine the likelihood that they were generated by artificial intelligence systems.

3. Account Registration

To use the Services, you must create an account via Google OAuth. You are responsible for:

• Maintaining the confidentiality of your API keys
• All activities that occur under your account
• Notifying us immediately of any unauthorized use

4. Acceptable Use

You agree not to:

• Use the Services for any unlawful purpose
• Upload content that you do not have the right to analyze
• Attempt to reverse-engineer the detection algorithms
• Share or resell API access without authorization
• Exceed rate limits or abuse the API infrastructure
• Use the Services to circumvent content moderation on other platforms

5. API Usage and Rate Limits

API calls are subject to the limits of your subscription plan. Exceeding your plan's monthly allocation may result in throttled access until your next billing cycle. Unused API calls do not roll over.

6. Subscription and Payment

• Subscriptions are billed monthly in advance
• Prices are in USD and exclude applicable taxes
• You may upgrade, downgrade, or cancel at any time
• Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period
• Refunds are not provided for partial months

7. Data Handling

We follow a strict data lifecycle to protect your content:

• Audio files: Uploaded audio is decoded for analysis and immediately deleted upon completion of feature extraction. Raw audio is never stored on our servers beyond the processing window.
• Forensic analysis data: Derived spectral features (STFT residuals, classification vectors) are retained for 30 days to support result verification, dispute resolution, and forensic reporting. These features cannot be used to reconstruct the original audio.
• Detection results: Verdict, probability, and generator identification are stored as part of your account history until you delete them or close your account.
• No model training: Your audio content and derived features are never used to train, fine-tune, or improve our detection models.

8. Results and Accuracy

Detection results are probabilistic assessments and should not be treated as definitive determinations. While ArtifactNet achieves high accuracy in controlled benchmarks, results may vary depending on audio quality, format, and content type. Intrect does not guarantee 100% accuracy and shall not be liable for decisions made based on detection results.

9. Intellectual Property

The ArtifactNet detection technology, algorithms, and models are proprietary to Intrect and protected by intellectual property laws, including a pending Korean patent (filed 2026). You retain all rights to your uploaded content.

10. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, INTRECT SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH THE SERVICES.

Our total liability for any claim arising from the Services shall not exceed the amount paid by you in the 12 months preceding the claim.

11. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify and hold Intrect harmless from any claims, damages, or expenses arising from your use of the Services or violation of these Terms.

12. Modifications

We may modify these Terms at any time. Material changes will be communicated via email or dashboard notification at least 30 days in advance. Continued use of the Services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.

13. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms. Upon termination, your API keys will be deactivated and pending batch results will be made available for download for 30 days.

14. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Korea. Any disputes shall be submitted to the exclusive jurisdiction of the Seoul Central District Court.
