Terms of Service

Last updated July 9, 2026

These terms govern your use of Layersmith ("the Service"), operated as a sole proprietorship in British Columbia, Canada ("we"). By using the Service you agree to them. The short version: your images are yours, pay only for what's labelled paid, don't abuse the Service, and we'll be straight with you.

Your content

You own the images you open and the files you export. You warrant that you have the rights to the images you process. We claim no license over your content beyond the minimum needed to operate the features you invoke (e.g., transmitting an image to our servers when you click a server-AI button). We do not train AI models on your images.

AI-generated fill regions are labelled with an AI_Fill_ prefix in exported files. You are responsible for how you use AI-modified images, including any disclosure obligations that apply to your work.

Plans, credits, and caps

• Free: the full local pipeline; unlimited ORA and PNG-stack exports; a daily cap on PSD exports; a one-time trial grant of server-AI credits on signup.
• Pro and Studio: monthly or annual subscriptions that remove the PSD cap and grant server-AI credits each billing period (300 and 2,000 respectively). Unused period credits do not roll over.
• Credit packs: one-time purchases that never expire.

We cap quantity, never quality: no exports are ever watermarked or degraded.

Billing and refunds

Payments are processed by Stripe. Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled, which you can do any time from the billing portal — you keep access until the period ends. 14-day no-questions refund on any first purchase: email us within 14 days and we'll refund it.

Acceptable use

Don't use the Service to process content that is illegal, that infringes others' rights, or to attack the Service itself (scraping the API, circumventing metering, reselling access). We may suspend accounts doing so; we'll tell you why — except where the next section applies.

Child safety — zero tolerance

Uploading, processing, or attempting to process child sexual abuse material (CSAM) or any content that sexualizes minors is absolutely prohibited. Images handled by our servers are automatically scanned against known-CSAM hash databases, including via Cloudflare's CSAM Scanning Tool. On detection or reasonable belief: the account is terminated immediately and permanently, without notice, refund, or appeal; the material and associated account information are preserved as evidence; and a report is made to the Canadian Centre for Child Protection (Cybertip.ca) and/or the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children, and to law enforcement, as required by law. Account deletion and anonymization do not apply to information subject to such preservation. There is no legitimate use of this Service that involves such material.

How server AI handles your images

Single-image server features process your pixels transiently through Cloudflare's AI infrastructure and store no copy. Batch job files are stored for a maximum of 24 hours and then deleted automatically; only file names, counts, and timestamps are retained as job records. Full details are in the privacy policy.

Service quality

AI segmentation and inpainting are probabilistic — results vary with the image, and we don't guarantee any particular output. The Service is provided "as is"; to the maximum extent permitted by law our total liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited under applicable law.

Changes

We may update these terms; material changes will be announced on the site or by email at least 14 days before they take effect. Continued use after that constitutes acceptance.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of British Columbia and the federal laws of Canada applicable therein. Disputes go to the courts of British Columbia.
