Terms of Service | CineFate

The terms for using CineFate: accounts, fictional-character rules, Story Step credits, refunds, and the opening-image usage rules.

Last updated: 2026-09-07

Acceptance Of Terms

By accessing or using CineFate, you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the service.

Service

CineFate turns a short story premise and one fictional opening image into an ongoing photorealistic AI-generated video story. While a scene plays, two text choices and their scripts are prepared. After you choose, only the selected continuation video is generated. Accepted generation continues if you close the page. Generated scenes are AI-generated and carry an AI-generated label. “Photorealistic” describes the fictional visual style and never claims that a character or performance is a real person. We may change, suspend, or discontinue parts of the service when needed.

Accounts

Generation requires an account with a verified email address. Each verified account includes the opening and the first real choice once. You are responsible for keeping account credentials secure and for activity that occurs under your account.

Opening-Image And Usage Rules

Upload only images of fictional characters you created, generated, commissioned, or otherwise have the right to use.
Content must be safe for work. Celebrity or public-figure recreation, identity cloning, deepfakes, unauthorized identifiable-person likenesses, existing IP, and copyrighted characters without authorization are prohibited.
Your opening image is used only for your story, is not used for model training or another user’s story, and is not automatically reused in a new story.
Attempts to bypass story or safety controls are prohibited.

Story Steps, Credits, And Refunds

Each verified account receives 20 starter credits. The opening and each selected continuation use 10 credits per scene. Further credits are available through monthly or yearly subscriptions and permanent packs. Credits are reserved when a scene is requested and charged when it is delivered. Terminal failed delivery or continuity processing restores the affected scene’s credits once. Completed videos remain charged if unwatched or later deleted. Cancellation stops subscription renewal at the end of the paid term; a paid yearly term retains monthly credit refills until its end. Permanent packs are unaffected. Purchases follow the terms shown at checkout and applicable provider rules.

Optional Preparation Tools

Story refinement is free within usage limits. Each verified account can create one successful AI opening image free, separately from starter video credits. Further image requests show their credit price before confirmation. We reserve those credits for the request and settle them when the image is delivered; failed or rejected generation restores the reservation or leaves the free entitlement available. Generating an image does not start a video. You review the selected image and choose Start story separately.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to misuse the service, violate laws, infringe third-party rights, attempt unauthorized access, disrupt systems, or submit harmful content.

Your Content

You retain rights to the premises and opening images you supply. We store and process them only to provide the service described in these terms and our Privacy Policy.

Termination

We may suspend or terminate access if these terms are violated. You may stop using the service and delete your stories or account at any time.

Limitation Of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages related to use of the service.
