Artificial Intelligence Addendum
Last Updated: July 31, 2024
This Vimeo Artificial Intelligence Addendum is a part of Vimeo’s Terms of Service and governs your use of our Generative Tools (defined below).
Access. We may allow you to use our features that incorporate artificial intelligence tools and other technology (“Generative Tools”) to generate text, audio, video, and other content (“Output”) in response to prompts and other input (“Input”). Generative Tools are typically identified with a sparkle icon. You may disable access to certain Generative Tools in your account settings.
Limitations. Outputs may not be unique, and it is possible that the Generative Tools may generate the same or similar Output for other users if the Inputs are similar. The Generative Tools are experimental and may produce Output that is inaccurate, unreliable, inappropriate, infringing, offensive, or otherwise unsuitable. The use of Generative Tools may affect your ability to obtain or enforce any intellectual property rights in or to the Output.
Ownership. As between you and Vimeo, and to the extent permitted by applicable law, you (a) retain your ownership rights in Input and (b) own the Output. We hereby assign to you all our right, title, and interest, if any, in and to Output.
License by You. For any Output you are capable of asserting intellectual property rights in, you grant Vimeo a non-exclusive, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable, and royalty-free license to use, reproduce, prepare derivative works of, distribute, and perform and display publicly such Output (consistent with your privacy settings) to provide, support, and maintain our Services.
Restrictions.
General. You may not use the Generative Tools or the resulting Output in a manner that may infringe upon or violate the rights of any third party or violate any applicable laws, rules, or regulations, or our Terms of Service. You may not use our Generative Tools to generate Output that violates our Acceptable Use Policy. You may not submit any Input that contains sensitive information.
Synthetic Audio. You may not use the synthetic audio features of our Generative Tools if you or any individual in the Input reside in a jurisdiction that prohibits processing of an individual’s voice without the express permission of the individual whose voice will be processed. In addition to the restrictions in our Acceptable Use Policy, you may not use the synthetic audio features of our Generative Tools to, directly or indirectly:
Generate threats to child safety, illegal or regulated content, fraud and abuse content, election misinformation content, or violent, hateful, or harassing content;
Develop any competing synthetic audio product or service;
Create, train, test, or improve artificial intelligence or machine learning models using Output; or
Create Output for any purpose other than your internal or commercial work product.
Your Responsibilities. You acknowledge and agree that (a) you are solely responsible for vetting and evaluating the accuracy, appropriateness, legality, and suitability for your use of any Output before using it, including evaluating whether such use will infringe upon or violate the rights of others; (b) you assume all risk associated with your use of the Generative Tools and its resulting Output and that Vimeo, and Vimeo’s third-party providers, will have no liability for such use; and (c) it is your responsibility to comply with any laws or regulations requiring consent or notification of the use of artificial intelligence to generate Output.
Third-Party Providers. Your use of the Generative Tools may involve access to your Inputs and Outputs by third-party providers. Our third-party providers have agreed not to use your Inputs or Outputs to train their artificial intelligence models.
Other Terms. All other terms set forth in Vimeo’s Terms of Service (including Section 7 (Your Obligations)) govern your use of Generative Tools. To the extent there is an express inconsistency between the two documents, this addendum will prevail.
