Blind Editor — Acceptable Use Policy

Effective date: 31 July 2026
Version: 1.0

This Acceptable Use Policy (the "AUP") is part of the Terms & Conditions. Capitalised terms have the meaning given there. It tells you what you may and may not do with Blind Editor (the "Service"). Breaking this policy is a breach of the Terms and can lead to content removal, suspension, or termination — for serious breaches, without refund of remaining credits (Terms section 15.4) — and, for serious cases, referral to the authorities.

1. The core rule

Do not upload, process, generate, store, or share anything that is illegal under the laws of Iceland, or that you do not have the right to use. This applies wherever you are in the world.

2. Prohibited content

You must not use the Service in connection with content that:

  1. is illegal in Iceland in any respect;
  2. sexually exploits or endangers minors — including child sexual abuse material (CSAM) or any sexual depiction of a minor. We report such material to the competent authorities as required by law and terminate the account immediately;
  3. is non-consensual intimate imagery, or a sexual or intimate "deepfake" of a real person created or used without that person's consent;
  4. infringes intellectual-property rights — copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret — or that you do not hold the necessary rights, licences, or permissions to use (see Terms section 9);
  5. uses a person's face, voice, or likeness without their consent, or in a way that is deceptive or defamatory, or that falsely suggests endorsement or authorship;
  6. is unlawfully hateful, harassing, threatening, or defamatory, or incites violence or criminal acts, under Icelandic law;
  7. violates another person's privacy or data-protection rights, including uploading someone else's personal data without a lawful basis;
  8. is designed to deceive or defraud (for example, disinformation intended to cause harm, scams, or impersonation of a real person or organisation); or
  9. contains malware or code intended to harm, disrupt, or gain unauthorised access to any system.

3. Prohibited conduct

You must not:

  1. misuse or attack the Service — attempt to gain unauthorised access, probe or scan for vulnerabilities, disrupt or degrade it, or interfere with other users;
  2. break out of your workspace or the AI agent's limits — attempt to access other users' data, escape the sandbox, or manipulate the agent (including through the transcript or your prompts) into running commands, accessing systems, or taking actions outside the intended scope of editing your own content;
  3. circumvent limits — the per-job safety/budget limits, rate limits, quotas, credit checks, or any technical or usage restriction;
  4. use automation abusively — scrape, crawl, or use the Service through unauthorised automated means, or generate load intended to overburden it;
  5. resell or share access — sell, sublicense, rent, or share your account or credits, or provide the Service to third parties as if it were your own, except as expressly allowed for business/team accounts;
  6. reverse engineer the Service or its underlying models, or attempt to extract, copy, or derive the models or training data, except to the limited extent this restriction is prohibited by law;
  7. use the Service to build a competing model or service by extracting its outputs at scale for that purpose;
  8. misrepresent your identity, your rights, or the consents you hold; or
  9. evade AI-transparency duties — publish or distribute an edit that materially manipulates what a real person appears to say or do without the disclosure that applicable law requires of you (including the EU AI Act's transparency rules for deepfakes, applying from 2 August 2026), or remove or obscure machine-readable markings that identify content as AI-generated or AI-manipulated.

4. Fair use of shared resources

The Service runs on shared, metered infrastructure. Usage limits (for example on job length, upload size, concurrent jobs, and request rate) exist to keep the Service reliable and fair for everyone. Do not attempt to evade them. We may adjust these limits and may throttle or pause activity that threatens the stability of the Service.

5. Reporting abuse

If you believe content or conduct on the Service breaks this policy, report it to argon@argon.is. For illegal content and copyright specifically, use the notice process in Terms section 16 (argon@argon.is).

6. Enforcement

We may investigate suspected breaches and cooperate with law enforcement. Depending on severity, we may warn you, remove content, suspend or limit your account, or terminate it — as set out in Terms section 15, including the statement of reasons in Terms section 15.3. For content that endangers children or otherwise poses serious harm, we act immediately and without prior notice, and preserve and report information as the law requires.
