Aoyama Persona License Terms

Purpose

These terms define the license for the Product.

These License Terms apply to all use of Aoyama Persona AI Character Products (each, the “Product”) acquired through a Lawful Purchase from Soravure under the brand name “Aoyama Persona.”

An Individual Character Product licenses one fictional AI Character generated by the Seller with OpenAI’s Sora2. A Lawful Purchase grants the Buyer a non-exclusive license to use that AI Character under these License Terms. Commercial use is permitted, including advertising, film, games, social media, websites, presentations, marketing materials, creative works, and commissioned Client work. Set Products license multiple such Characters as identified on the applicable product page.

Each licensed Character is supplied with four supporting digital files: one Origin Video, two Reference Images, and one Voice Reference. A set Product contains the corresponding supporting files for the Characters identified in that set.

The Origin Video is a supporting file included with the Product and retained to document the licensed Character’s generation source. It may be reviewed as a viewing-and-listening reference for the Character’s expression, movement, speech, voice, and presence, but it is not a permitted working input asset for AI generation or processing. The Reference Images and Voice Reference are the permitted working references for additional character generation and production.

By purchasing the Product, the Buyer confirms that they have reviewed and accepted these License Terms.

If the Buyer purchases the Product on behalf of a company or other entity, the Buyer represents that they have authority to accept these License Terms on behalf of that entity.

1. Definitions

Key terms used in these License Terms.

2. Product, warranties, and non-exclusive status

What the Product is, and what is not guaranteed.

2.1 Nature of the Product

The AI Character contained in the Product is a fictional human representation generated by the Seller with OpenAI’s Sora2 and is not presented as a real person or as footage of a human performer.

The Seller generated the AI Character through OpenAI’s Sora web/app product environment while that experience was available. OpenAI publicly documented source-identification and safety controls for Sora2, including visible watermarking and safeguards addressing likeness-related risks. The retained Origin Video is the original Sora2 video output associated with that generation, with the Sora2 Visible Watermark preserved. These facts support the Seller’s description of the Character as AI-generated and fictional, but do not constitute OpenAI review or approval of the Product and do not guarantee that the Character cannot resemble a real person.

OpenAI discontinued the Sora web and app experiences on April 26, 2026, and new Origin Videos cannot now be created through that same web/app experience.

The discontinuation of the Sora web/app experience does not create exclusivity, guarantee that similar content cannot be generated by another tool or service, or expand the Buyer’s license under these License Terms. Any separate API availability or later OpenAI service does not change the fact that the Sora web/app product environment in which these Origin Videos were created has been discontinued.

• Origin Video: the original Sora2 generation video associated with the licensed AI Character, with the Sora2 Visible Watermark retained; it is a supporting file included with the Product, retained to document the Character’s Sora2 generation source, and may be reviewed for movement, expression, speech, voice, and presence, but it is not a permitted working input asset for AI generation or processing.
• Two Reference Images: working references for image and video generation and other permitted production workflows.
• Voice Reference: a working reference for voice generation, voice models, voice cloning, and related permitted production workflows.

Of the supplied files, only the two Reference Images and the Voice Reference may be used as inputs for additional generation or production. The Origin Video may not be used as a direct generation or processing input.

The four supporting files are supplied together with the licensed AI Character and may not be separated for third-party material use.

2.2 Disclaimers

The Product provides a non-exclusive license to use the purchased AI Character under these License Terms together with supporting digital files. The Seller does not warrant:

• Consistency or reproducibility: that external AI, generation, or editing tools will reproduce the same character consistently or fully preserve face, body, voice, presence, or other characteristics.
• Exclusivity: the license is non-exclusive. The Seller may license the same AI Character to multiple Buyers, and third parties may generate the same or similar representations.
• Intellectual property rights: that copyright or other intellectual property rights arise in the Product or Derivative Content, or the scope, validity, or exclusivity of any such rights.
• Fitness: suitability for the Buyer’s purpose, environment, AI tools, advertising media, social platforms, distribution services, game platforms, or other services, including approval or monetization.
• Absence of third-party rights issues: that the Product or Derivative Content will never conflict with third-party rights in a particular use, combination, or presentation.
• Future availability: that external AI services, sales platforms, social platforms, advertising media, or other services will remain available on the same terms.
• Historical user reactions: the Seller may consider historical reactions from Sora2 users, including likes recorded while the sharing experience was available, as one supporting selection signal. Such reactions do not guarantee future popularity, audience response, commercial performance, economic value, or suitability for a particular project. Detailed reaction counts, breakdowns, or underlying records may not be published or provided.

The Origin Video is approximately 10 seconds long and contains audio, but the Seller does not guarantee an exact or fixed duration. Differences may result from Sora2 generation specifications, individual files, playback environments, file formats, conversion, or player behavior.

2.3 License scope, territory, and duration

The license granted for the Product is non-exclusive and worldwide. It is non-transferable and non-sublicensable except for use by Authorized Users and delivery and use of Completed Works by Clients as expressly permitted under Sections 4.7 and 4.8.

After a Lawful Purchase, no separate recurring license fee is owed to the Seller for uses permitted under these License Terms. The license continues unless and until terminated under this Section 2.3 or Section 11.5, or otherwise required by applicable law or a binding third-party rights determination.

If the full purchase price for a Product is refunded or permanently reversed, including through a final chargeback, and no other valid Lawful Purchase of the same Product remains, the license for that Product automatically terminates when the refund or reversal becomes final.

A pending refund request, dispute, or chargeback does not by itself terminate the license. A partial refund, correction of a duplicate charge, or reversal of an additional duplicate payment does not terminate the license where at least one valid Lawful Purchase of the same Product remains.

Notwithstanding the continued-use rule for existing Completed Works in Section 11.5, upon termination under this Section 2.3 due to a refund or reversal, the Buyer must stop new and continued use of the Product, Reference Materials, Derivative Content, and Character-specific AI models or configuration data associated with that Product, including continued commercial use of previously created Completed Works, unless the Seller expressly confirms otherwise or applicable mandatory law requires otherwise.

If the Seller voluntarily issues a refund for a reason that does not require termination of the license, the Seller may expressly confirm that the license will continue.

The Buyer acknowledges that the same AI Character may be used by other Buyers. The Buyer receives no right to prevent others from using the same or similar character representation.

The same applies to set products.

2.4 Relationship with OpenAI and Sora2

The Product is not an official OpenAI product and is not affiliated, partnered, sponsored, approved, endorsed, or recommended by OpenAI or any other third party.

The Seller generated the Sora2 outputs used for the Products. OpenAI’s published Terms of Use state that, as between the user and OpenAI and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the user owns the Output. This allocation between OpenAI and the generating user does not itself establish copyright, exclusivity, or the absence of third-party rights, and it does not expand the Buyer’s rights beyond the non-exclusive license granted under these License Terms.

OpenAI and Sora2 are referenced to identify the generation source and related factual context. The Buyer must not represent the Product or Derivative Content as officially approved, sponsored, endorsed, recommended, or partnered with OpenAI or any other third party.

3. Third-party terms and visible watermark

Third-party rules remain applicable.

3.1 Third-party service terms

If the Buyer chooses to use any third-party service in connection with the Product, the Buyer is responsible for reviewing and complying with the terms, policies, data-use rules, and account or project settings that actually apply to that service and plan.

These License Terms independently govern the Buyer’s rights to the Product. They do not make a third-party service’s terms applicable where those terms would not otherwise apply, and use of a different service does not expand the Product license or permit circumvention of these License Terms.

The Seller is not required to explain, verify, obtain, interpret, or act as an intermediary for third-party terms, policies, or their applicability, and does not provide legal advice on them.

These License Terms do not amend, override, restrict, or supersede the terms, policies, brand guidelines, trademark policies, or other rules of any AI service, the Sales Platform, or any other third party where those rules apply.

3.2 Origin Video and Sora2 Visible Watermark

The Sora2 Visible Watermark is a visible indication showing that the Origin Video was generated with Sora2.

The Buyer must retain the Origin Video as the Original and keep the Sora2 Visible Watermark. The Buyer must not process, edit, transform, crop, overwrite, remove, hide, alter, or otherwise modify the Origin Video or its watermark.

The Origin Video must not be used as a direct input for AI tools, generation tools, editing tools, or similar processing.

If a version without the visible watermark is needed, the Buyer must create new Derivative Content from the permitted Reference Images or Voice Reference rather than removing the watermark from the Origin Video.

3.3 Seller Reference Notice on Reference Images

The Reference Images contain the “soravure” Seller Reference Notice.

The Buyer must retain at least one unchanged copy of each supplied Reference Image with the Seller Reference Notice visible.

For permitted internal production workflows, the Buyer may create working copies of the Reference Images and may crop, resize, preprocess, edit, transform, or test those working copies as reasonably necessary. The Seller Reference Notice does not have to remain visible on every working copy where the change is part of a permitted production workflow.

The Buyer must not remove, alter, or conceal the Seller Reference Notice from the supplied original Reference Images for redistribution, source misrepresentation, or presentation of an altered copy as an unmodified Seller-supplied original.

New Derivative Content created from the Reference Images is not itself a Sora2 output, so the Reference Images’ Seller Reference Notice does not automatically have to appear on that new content. The mandatory AI-generated and fictional-character disclosure in Section 3.4 still applies, together with any additional disclosure required by law, an AI service, advertising medium, social platform, distribution platform, or other applicable rule.

3.4 AI-generated disclosure

When publishing or distributing the Character or Derivative Content, including Completed Works for Clients, the Buyer must clearly disclose that the Character is AI-generated and fictional. This requirement applies under these License Terms even where applicable law or a platform does not separately require disclosure. The Buyer must ensure that the disclosure accompanies Completed Works published or distributed by Clients.

The disclosure must be placed where viewers can readily notice and understand it. For example: “This work features an AI-generated fictional character.” The Buyer must not present the Character as a real person or as footage of a human performer, or falsely represent AI-generated material as human-generated. The appropriate placement and format depend on the medium; the Buyer must also follow any additional disclosure requirements of applicable law and the services, advertising media, and distribution platforms used.

This disclosure requirement does not grant permission to redistribute the Product or supplied materials and does not change any other restriction in these License Terms.

3.5 Online previews

Online preview images and 3-second preview videos with audio are provided only for viewing and listening to evaluate the Characters before purchase. They are not reusable production or reference materials, must not be used as inputs for AI generation or training, and are not part of the delivered Product package. Purchasing a Product does not grant rights to reuse its online preview media.

4. Permitted use

What the Buyer may do.

This Section 4 applies only to a Product acquired through a Lawful Purchase.

4.1 Basic use

The Buyer may use a Product acquired through a Lawful Purchase for individual or corporate production in accordance with these License Terms.

Commercial use is permitted. This includes the Buyer’s own projects, projects of the Purchasing Entity, and commissioned Client work performed by the Buyer for third parties.

The Buyer may use the Reference Images and Voice Reference to create Derivative Content featuring the same AI Character.

4.2 Use of Reference Images

The Buyer may use the Reference Images as references in AI tools, image-generation tools, video-generation tools, editing tools, and other production tools to create new images and videos.

This includes image-to-video workflows and video-to-video or similar additional generation using footage created by the Buyer.

Any video used for video-to-video processing must be footage created or produced by the Buyer. The Origin Video may not be used as the input.

4.3 Use of Voice Reference

The Buyer may use the Voice Reference as a reference for voice generation, voice conversion, voice models, voice cloning, and other production processes.

The Buyer may edit, transform, or test the Voice Reference within a Buyer-controlled production environment that does not make the Voice Reference available for independent third-party use.

Generated voice may be incorporated into the Buyer’s Completed Work except for uses prohibited by these License Terms.

4.4 Character direction and changes

The Buyer may change expression, clothing, hairstyle, makeup, pose, manner of speaking, voice treatment, personality, temperament, mood, attitude, performance style, atmosphere, role, background, scene, framing, lighting, color treatment, and similar production elements as appropriate to the work.

For clarity, personality, role, mood, attitude, manner of speaking, voice treatment, and performance style are creative-direction elements and may vary from one work to another. Changing those elements does not by itself create a different Character.

Normal variation produced by AI tools, or permitted changes in styling or performance, do not by themselves violate this Section. The Buyer may not deliberately create a materially different human identity that an ordinary viewer would no longer reasonably recognize as the licensed AI Character and then use, develop, license, sell, or distribute that identity as an independent character.

4.5 Commercial use

The Buyer may incorporate Derivative Content into Completed Works and publish, distribute, display, post, sell, or monetize those Completed Works for commercial purposes, including advertising, video, games, social media, websites, presentations, marketing materials, and creative works.

4.6 Client work

The Buyer may use the Product for commissioned production work for Clients.

A Client may request a new production, revision, modification, alternative version, or other new content using the AI Character, and the Buyer may perform or arrange that production within the scope of this license.

The Seller does not grant the Client an independent license to the Product. The Buyer remains the license holder and must structure Client work so that new Character-based production, revisions, modifications, alternative versions, and other new production are carried out by or through the Buyer.

The Buyer must not authorize or permit the Client to independently use the Product or reusable materials created from the Product to create an AI Character, image, video, audio, model, or other content.

4.7 Delivery of Completed Works to Clients

The Buyer may deliver Completed Works created for a Client to that Client.

A Client may use a Completed Work lawfully delivered by the Buyer for the intended Client project or use authorized by the Buyer.

The Buyer must not separately deliver the Product, Reference Materials, Origin Video, Voice Reference, AI models, settings, trained data, or other reusable materials in a form that permits the Client to reuse them independently.

A Client may request revisions, edits, changes, remakes, adaptations, or alternative versions of a Completed Work, but those changes must be carried out by or through the Buyer as the license holder. This rule does not prohibit a Client from requesting changes; it prevents independent Character-based production outside the Buyer’s licensed workflow.

The Buyer must not authorize or permit the Client to extract the AI Character representation or other reusable materials from a delivered Completed Work and independently use them for new AI generation, character generation, image generation, video generation, voice generation, or similar production.

4.8 Corporate and production-team use

A Purchasing Entity may allow its Authorized Users to handle the Product for production work carried out by the Purchasing Entity, including its own projects and permitted Client work.

Authorized Users must use the Product under the control of the Purchasing Entity and in accordance with these License Terms.

A Purchasing Entity must not place the Product in publicly accessible storage, repositories, material-sharing sites, or similar locations accessible to an unspecified number of people.

5. Character-specific AI models and configuration data

AI models and configuration data for the same Character may be created for Buyer-controlled use.

In this Section, “AI models and configuration data” means technical resources created or tuned to reproduce or generate the same Character, such as LoRA, Embeddings, voice models, face models, adaptation weights, trained weights, or similar configuration data. It does not mean the Character itself.

The Buyer may create or tune these technical resources from the Reference Images and Voice Reference for the purpose of generating additional content as the same Character.

This is permitted only if all of the following conditions are met:

• The AI tool or service used permits the activity under the actual service and plan used.
• The AI models and related data remain under the control of the Buyer or Purchasing Entity in an account, project, local environment, or cloud environment that does not make them available for independent use by third parties.
• Before uploading or processing permitted materials, the Buyer verifies compliance with Section 3.1 and with the actual terms, data-use policy, and account or project settings of the AI service and plan being used.
• The AI models and related data are not uploaded to a public or shared model repository, published on a marketplace, or otherwise made available to other users or third parties for their own use.
• The Origin Video is not used as an input for model creation, training, or generation.

An AI service provider’s receipt of a license to, and processing of, uploaded materials as permitted under Section 6.2 does not by itself breach any of these conditions.

The access and distribution limits in this Section apply to the AI models, adaptation weights, configuration data, and trained data themselves. Images, video, audio, and other Completed Works generated with them may be published, delivered to Clients, sold, or monetized as otherwise permitted under these License Terms.

Third-party provision or other distribution of AI models, configuration data, trained data, or similar technical resources is governed by Section 6.2.

Editing, transforming, preprocessing, or testing Reference Images or the Voice Reference as part of permitted Character-specific AI-model or production work is permitted.

6. Prohibited use

The following uses are not permitted.

The Buyer must not perform any of the following with the Product, Reference Materials, Origin Video, Voice Reference, AI models, configuration data, trained data, or other reusable material created from the Product.

6.1 Resale, redistribution, and provision as reusable material

• Resell, redistribute, give away, publicly release, share, lend, or sublicense the Product.
• Separate the four Product files and distribute, sell, share, or provide any part of them to a third party as reusable material.
• Distribute, sell, share, or provide the Voice Reference as a voice asset, audio data, voice model, narration asset, or similar reusable material.
• Provide the Product or Derivative Content for the purpose of enabling, or in a form or delivery arrangement reasonably intended to enable, a third party to extract, reuse, reprocess, redistribute, or resell it as reusable material. Ordinary publication, distribution, or Client delivery of a Completed Work permitted under these License Terms is not prohibited solely because technical extraction of content may be possible.
• Sell, distribute, or provide the Product or reusable derivatives as a material pack, template, AI-character product, voice asset, image asset, video asset, dataset, or similar product.
• List, sell, or provide the Product or reusable derivative materials on stock-photo/video sites, material marketplaces, AI-asset marketplaces, dataset marketplaces, or similar services.
• Sell, distribute, or provide the Product as data for third-party AI training, testing, or evaluation.

6.2 Third-party provision of AI models and data

Except for the Buyer-controlled use permitted under Section 5, the Buyer must not distribute, sell, share, provide, publish, lend, or sublicense AI models, configuration data, trained data, datasets, or similar technical resources created using or referring to the Product.

The Buyer must not use the Product, Reference Materials, Derivative Content, resulting outputs, AI models, configuration data, or trained data to develop, train, improve, evaluate, or provide a general-purpose generative model, foundation model, or similar broadly reusable model or service, or to contribute them to public or shared training or third-party model development. This restriction applies regardless of the AI provider used.

This prohibition concerns what the Buyer itself does with the materials. It does not prohibit using generative AI tools or services merely because their providers may train or improve their own models, including general-purpose generative models, with content that users upload. That provider-side use is addressed later in this Section.

Character-specific creation and tuning of AI models and configuration data for the same Character, including LoRA, Embeddings, voice models, and face models, expressly permitted under Section 5 are outside this prohibition.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraphs of this Section and Section 6.1, the Buyer does not breach these License Terms merely because an AI service provider, under that provider’s standard terms, receives a license to and processes the Reference Images, Voice Reference, Derivative Content, or AI models and configuration data permitted under Section 5 that the Buyer uploads, including the provider’s own use of them to operate, improve, or train its service and models, provided that the Buyer uploads those materials only for the Buyer’s own production permitted under these License Terms and keeps them private within that service.

The Buyer must not publish, share, or otherwise make uploaded materials, or content generated with them inside the service, available to other users of the service through any gallery, community feed, public profile, template, remix, “recreate,” use-as-reference, or similar feature of the service. This applies to generated content as well as uploaded materials because such features may let other users reuse the content, its prompts, or its input materials for their own generation. Ordinary publication or Client delivery of Completed Works outside those service features remains permitted under these License Terms. The Buyer also must not itself supply the Product or materials derived from it to any third party as training, testing, evaluation, or dataset material. Where a service offers a setting or request procedure that limits the provider’s use of uploaded materials, the Seller recommends using it.

When using any AI service, the Buyer must comply with the actual terms, data-use policy, and account, project, privacy, sharing, and other applicable settings of the service and plan used. Using a different or additional service does not expand the Product license or permit circumvention of these License Terms. The Section 5 permission does not authorize public sharing or distribution of reusable materials, AI models, weights, configuration data, or trained data. The Origin Video remains excluded from AI inputs and training.

6.3 Creating a separate character identity or resembling third parties

This Section does not prohibit the creative-direction changes permitted under Section 4.4. Personality, role, mood, attitude, manner of speaking, voice treatment, and performance style may vary while the licensed AI Character remains the character being used.

• Deliberately create a materially different human identity that an ordinary viewer would no longer reasonably recognize as the licensed AI Character and independently use, develop, license, sell, or distribute that identity as a separate character.
• Make the AI Character resemble or be based on a real person or public figure.
• Make the AI Character imitate or resemble the identity, likeness, or recognizable voice of a real person.
• Make the AI Character resemble or be derived from an existing character, third-party work, trademark, or other protected creation.

6.4 Use as a real person or impersonation

• Present the AI Character as a real person.
• Present it as an actual actor, model, celebrity, public official, or other third party.
• Use it for identity verification, identification documents, authentication, or as a person’s actual image.
• Use it to impersonate a third party.
• Represent that a real person appears, consented, recommended, sponsored, approved, or participated when that is not true.

6.5 Improper or unlawful use

• Adult or sexually explicit use, or use contrary to public order and accepted standards.
• Illegal activity, fraudulent presentation, or use intended to mislead.
• Discrimination, defamation, harassment, insult, or incitement.
• Using the AI Character’s voice or appearance to generate, publish, or distribute audio or video that promotes, supports, or endorses a particular ideology, belief, political position, or religious position.
• Using the AI Character’s voice or appearance to generate, publish, or distribute audio or video that defames, insults, discriminates against, or incites against another person.
• Uses that infringe third-party rights, reputation, credit, privacy, or other rights.
• Uses that violate the rules of an advertising medium, social platform, distribution service, game platform, or other service.
• Removing, hiding, or altering the Sora2 Visible Watermark in the Origin Video.
• Using the Origin Video as a direct input for AI tools or similar services.
• Using a third party to circumvent these restrictions.
• Allowing a Client to independently use the Product or reusable materials, or knowingly failing to take reasonable corrective measures after becoming aware of such independent use.

7. Likeness, voice, and third-party rights

Third-party rights remain the Buyer’s responsibility.

The AI Character is fictional, but because it is AI-generated, it may appear similar to a real person. Any such similarity does not mean identity, relationship, consent, or participation by that person.

The Buyer must not infringe third-party copyright, trademark rights, likeness rights, publicity rights, privacy rights, reputation, credit, or other rights when using the Product or Derivative Content.

The Seller does not warrant that a particular use, edit, combination, advertising expression, trademark, or other presentation is free from third-party rights issues.

The Character’s voice may be directed, processed, converted, or otherwise adjusted for different roles and performances as permitted under Sections 4.3 and 4.4. It must not be represented, assigned, or marketed as the voice identity of another person or a separate character.

The Voice Reference or generated voice may not be provided as reusable audio material, audio data, voice models, or similar materials to third parties.

The restrictions in Section 6 also apply when creating or using a voice model or voice clone from the Voice Reference.

8. Original file and generation source

Keep the source-identifying Origin Video unchanged.

Each AI Character in the purchased Product was generated with OpenAI’s Sora2. The Buyer must store the associated Origin Video as an Original without modification and retain its Sora2 Visible Watermark. That Origin Video is the retained original Sora2 video output that directly identifies the Character’s generation source.

Backups may be created. Each backup is treated as part of the Product and remains subject to the restrictions on third-party provision, resale, and sharing.

If an Origin Video becomes unusable because of loss, overwrite, damage, processing, deletion, or another Buyer-side circumstance, the Seller is not required to resend, reissue, or restore it, except where the issue is covered by Section 9 as an initial defect.

9. Refunds and initial defects

Sales Platform procedures apply.

The Product may be sold through a third-party Sales Platform. Payment, download, cancellation, refund, chargeback, and other transaction procedures are handled under the Sales Platform’s system and terms.

If the Sales Platform has its own refund or buyer-protection rules, those rules may take precedence over this section.

As the Seller’s policy, refunds for reasons attributable to the Buyer, including a change of mind, are generally unavailable for digital products. This applies only to the extent permitted by mandatory law and the Sales Platform’s terms.

If the Buyer previously purchased a Product that is later included, in whole or in part, in a larger Library or other Set Product purchased by the Buyer—including an Individual Character included in a Library Volume, a Library Volume included in a Category Complete Library, or a Library Volume or Category Complete Library included in the Master Complete Library—the earlier Product purchase does not become eligible for a refund, credit, retroactive bundle discount, price adjustment, or deduction solely because of that overlap. This policy applies only to the extent permitted by mandatory law and the Sales Platform’s terms.

If the same Product is accidentally charged more than once through the Sales Platform, that duplicate charge is a Sales Platform transaction issue and is distinct from content overlap between separate Product IDs. The Buyer should use the Sales Platform’s support channel to request review and any applicable refund or correction under the Sales Platform’s procedures and terms.

If the Sales Platform acts as Merchant of Record and processes a refund, chargeback, or related transaction, these License Terms do not restrict that process. Questions about the Sales Platform’s transaction status, refunds already processed or pending, disputes, chargebacks, cancellations, account status, or buyer-protection records must be directed to the Sales Platform’s support channel; the Seller does not manually verify, interpret, or change those platform statuses.

For a delivery problem or an initial Product-file defect, such as file corruption, incorrect or missing Product files, the Buyer must contact the Site’s support channel within 7 days of purchase. For a digital Product, the Seller’s primary response is to complete delivery of the correct Product data. After the purchase is verified, the Seller may use re-download, re-delivery, replacement, direct delivery, or another reasonable delivery method.

A temporary inability to download or access the Product does not by itself create a right to a refund. If the difficulty results from the Buyer’s device, browser, network connection, security settings, storage environment, software, or another Buyer-side condition, the Seller may use an alternate reasonable delivery method to complete delivery of the purchased Product.

A refund may be considered only where a problem attributable to the Seller prevents the correct Product from being provided and the problem cannot reasonably be resolved through re-download, re-delivery, replacement, direct delivery, or another reasonable delivery method. This policy applies only to the extent permitted by mandatory law and the Sales Platform’s terms.

Buyer-side cancellation, change of mind, insufficient consistency or reproducibility in an AI tool, insufficient voice-cloning accuracy, failed platform review, or loss, damage, or deletion caused by the Buyer are generally outside the scope of refund or replacement. A Buyer-side download or access problem does not by itself create refund eligibility where the Seller can make the correct Product data available through a reasonable delivery method.

10. Disclaimer and limitation of liability

The Seller’s responsibility is limited to the licensed Product and its delivery.

10.1 Disclaimer of warranties

In addition to the matters listed in Section 2, the Seller does not warrant the quality, accuracy, legality, continuity, availability, or third-party-rights compliance of results produced through generation, processing, editing, or model creation using or referring to the Product.

If the Buyer uses an external cloud AI service, the Buyer is responsible for reviewing its terms, public-access settings, training-use policies, data-retention conditions, deletion options, and other applicable requirements.

10.2 What the Seller provides

For each Character included in the purchased Product, the Seller provides the applicable four files and grants the non-exclusive license described in these License Terms.

10.3 Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by applicable law, if the Seller breaches these License Terms or otherwise fails to perform an obligation attributable to the Seller in connection with the relevant Product, the Seller is liable only for ordinary and direct damages reasonably arising from that breach or failure.

The Seller’s aggregate liability arising from or relating to the relevant Product will not exceed the purchase price actually paid by the Buyer for that Product.

The Seller is not liable for special, indirect, consequential, incidental, or similar damages, lost profits, lost business opportunities, production costs, advertising costs, data loss, account suspension, reputational damage, disputes with third parties, legal fees, or other similar losses.

This limitation does not exclude or limit liability to the extent such exclusion or limitation is not permitted by law, including liability arising from the Seller’s willful misconduct or gross negligence.

Where mandatory consumer-protection law or other mandatory law applies, liability is not excluded or limited beyond the extent permitted by that law.

10.4 Buyer responsibility for third-party claims

If a dispute, claim, or allegation of infringement arises from the Buyer’s material breach of these License Terms, prohibited use, modification or combination with other materials, additional generation, representation, publication, distribution, or other act or omission under the Buyer’s control, the Buyer is responsible for addressing the matter at the Buyer’s own responsibility and expense.

This responsibility does not apply to the extent the claim results directly from the Seller’s breach of these License Terms, willful misconduct, or gross negligence.

To the extent permitted by applicable law, if a third-party claim against the Seller results directly from the Buyer’s material breach of these License Terms, prohibited use, or independent Client use that the Buyer authorized or knowingly failed to address after becoming aware of it, the Buyer will indemnify and reimburse the Seller for reasonable, documented losses, liabilities, and external legal costs arising directly from that claim.

10.5 Claims by OpenAI or other third parties

If OpenAI or another third party makes a reasonably substantiated claim concerning the sale or use of the Product, or if the Seller reasonably determines that action is necessary because of a legal obligation, a substantiated third-party rights issue, or an applicable Sales Platform requirement, the Seller may suspend sales, make a product page unavailable, change disclosures, request that Buyers temporarily or permanently stop using the Product, or take other measures reasonably necessary in the circumstances.

The Seller will limit such measures to what the Seller reasonably considers necessary in light of the relevant claim, legal obligation, third-party rights issue, or Sales Platform requirement.

If the Seller permanently requires a Buyer to stop using a Product for reasons not caused by the Buyer’s breach, prohibited use, or other conduct under the Buyer’s control, the Seller will, where reasonably practicable, provide an appropriate resolution having regard to the circumstances. Such resolution may include replacement or modified materials, or a refund where appropriate and available under the applicable Sales Platform procedures.

Nothing in this Section limits rights or remedies required by mandatory law.

Except to the extent caused by the Seller’s willful misconduct or gross negligence, the Seller is not liable beyond the scope of Section 10.3 for losses arising from measures reasonably taken under this Section.

11. Rights, agreement, and records

The Buyer receives a non-exclusive license under these License Terms.

The Buyer receives the non-exclusive license to use the Product described in these License Terms. The sale of the Product does not transfer copyright or other intellectual property rights to the Buyer, grant exclusive or exclusionary rights, or grant the Buyer a right to prevent third parties from using the same or similar content.

The Seller possesses and manages the digital files supplied as the Product and grants the Buyer the license described in these License Terms. The Seller generated the underlying Sora2 outputs. OpenAI’s published Terms of Use state that, as between the user and OpenAI and to the extent permitted by applicable law, the user owns the Output.

This OpenAI-to-user allocation concerns the relationship between OpenAI and the generating user and does not enlarge the Buyer’s license under these License Terms. The Seller does not warrant whether copyright or other intellectual property rights arise in the Product, or the scope, validity, or exclusivity of any such rights.

11.1 Lawful purchase and records

A Lawful Purchase is required to use the Product.

The Buyer should retain the Sales Platform receipt, order number, purchase confirmation, invoice, download record, and similar records at the Buyer’s own responsibility.

Purchase records may be used to explain that the Buyer received a license under these License Terms. Together with the unchanged Origin Video, they can also support an explanation of which Product was purchased, that the AI Character was generated with OpenAI’s Sora2, and which original Sora2 video output was retained with that Product.

Purchase records, the Origin Video, the Reference Images’ Seller Reference Notice, and other materials do not guarantee copyright, exclusivity, absence of third-party rights, unique authenticity, absence of alteration, or absence of unauthorized copies.

11.2 Explaining use to Clients and business partners

If the Buyer needs to explain licensed use, lawful purchase, or the Character’s Sora2 generation source to a Client, business partner, advertising medium, distribution platform, legal reviewer, or similar party, the Buyer may present the purchase record, these License Terms, the Origin Video, and the Reference Images’ Seller Reference Notice together.

These materials are explanatory records and do not guarantee complete evidentiary value against third parties.

11.3 Unauthorized third-party use

Obtaining, copying, using, redistributing, or reselling the Product without a lawful purchase is not permitted.

These License Terms are a contract between the Seller and a lawful Buyer. The Seller does not guarantee that every contractual restriction can always be imposed directly on a third party that has not entered into these License Terms.

The Seller does not guarantee that unauthorized use, copying, or similar generation by third parties can be completely prevented, identified, or eliminated.

11.4 Prohibition on copying these License Terms

To the extent protected by law, intellectual property rights and legitimate business interests relating to the Site, product pages, product descriptions, these License Terms, sales methods, product structure, and know-how belong to the Seller.

Without the Seller’s permission, the Buyer must not reproduce, republish, modify, reuse, adapt, publish, sell, or provide all or part of these License Terms, or substantially imitate their wording, structure, sales conditions, restrictions, descriptions, or similar elements to create, publish, sell, or operate a competing service, product, material marketplace, AI-character sales site, template, or terms document.

This does not prevent the Buyer from providing these License Terms to Clients, business partners, advertising media, distribution platforms, legal reviewers, professionals, or other parties to explain the Buyer’s licensed use, lawful purchase, or the Character’s Sora2 generation source.

This restriction does not prohibit ordinary use of general legal terminology, standard contractual language, or generic provisions.

11.5 License suspension and termination

The license continues unless terminated under Section 2.3 or this Section 11.5, or otherwise required by applicable law or a binding third-party rights determination.

If the Buyer materially breaches these License Terms and the breach is reasonably capable of cure, the Seller may give notice of the breach and require the Buyer to cure it within 14 days. If the Buyer does not cure the breach within that period, the Seller may terminate the license by notice to the Buyer.

The Seller may terminate the license by notice without a cure period where an intentional or serious material breach cannot reasonably be cured, including unauthorized resale or redistribution of the Product or reusable materials, impersonation or unlawful use, or intentional circumvention of the Origin Video restrictions.

After termination, the Buyer must stop new generation, new production, and other new use of the Product and reusable materials. Existing Completed Works lawfully created and delivered before termination may continue to be used unless the continued use is itself unlawful, infringes third-party rights, violates these License Terms, or the Seller reasonably requires cessation under Section 10.5 or Section 15.

Termination does not affect accrued claims or obligations and does not end provisions that by their nature must continue to apply, including Sections 6, 7, 10, 11.3, 11.4, and 16.

12. Sales Platform and purchase procedure

Sales Platform procedures are separate from this license.

The Product may be sold through a third-party Sales Platform designated by the Seller.

Payment, tax treatment, downloads, receipts, invoices, refunds, chargebacks, and buyer protection are subject to the Sales Platform’s terms and system.

12.1 Download and access issues

The Product is delivered through the Sales Platform, and downloading or accessing the Product after purchase is performed through that platform’s system.

If Gumroad is used as the Sales Platform, issues concerning Gumroad checkout, payment, purchase history, transaction status, refunds, disputes, chargebacks, cancellations, receipts, invoices, download, access, delivery, Library, account status, buyer protection, or other platform functions should in principle be directed to Gumroad Support. If another Sales Platform is used, the Buyer should contact that platform’s support channel.

Issues concerning the Product files themselves, including corrupted files, incorrect delivery, missing files, or other problems attributable to the Product or its files, should be reported to the Seller through the Site’s support channel. The Seller will respond within the scope described in Section 9.

The Buyer may also use the Sales Platform’s receipt, purchase history, Library, or other available access method to retry downloading or accessing the Product. The Seller cannot directly repair, restore, or guarantee the Sales Platform’s systems.

If the Sales Platform acts as Merchant of Record, the license between Seller and Buyer under these License Terms and the Sales Platform’s payment and sales processing are separate roles.

12.2 Purchase Guard evidence records

When the Buyer accepts these License Terms through Purchase Guard and Purchase Guard approves the Buyer to proceed to the protected checkout, the Seller may retain a limited Purchase Guard evidence record to document the applicable license and purchase relationship, support security and fraud review, and preserve records relevant to refunds, disputes, chargebacks, or legal claims.

The long-term evidence record may include limited information relating to the Product, License Terms acceptance, Purchase Guard approval to proceed to checkout, verification associated with that checkout, and related transaction references or status information. If a matching Gumroad sale is linked, the record may also include limited sale identifiers and status information such as a sale or order reference, sale date, and refund, dispute, or chargeback status. The full verified email address and payment-card details are not retained as part of that long-term evidence record.

Because the long-term evidence record contains limited identifiers, it may not by itself identify a specific individual. Requests concerning personal information are handled under the Privacy Policy and applicable law, including reasonable steps to identify the relevant record and verify the requester where appropriate.

The standard retention period for these evidence records is five years from the date of acceptance. A record may be retained for a longer period where reasonably necessary in connection with an ongoing dispute, investigation, legal obligation, or similar documented need.

Technical implementation details of Purchase Guard do not form part of the license granted to the Buyer under these License Terms.

12.3 Published information and support scope

Before contacting the Seller, the Buyer should review the relevant product page, the Home page, these License Terms, FAQ, Purchase Guide, and other information published on the Site.

Questions about Product IDs, prices, package contents, licensing, permitted use, Purchase Guard messages, and other matters addressed by published Site materials should be resolved by reviewing those materials. The Seller is not required to provide individual email explanations of published information, make case-specific advance approvals or determinations regarding a proposed use, or provide legal advice.

Seller email support covers Product file issues attributable to the Seller, including missing, incorrect, corrupted, or otherwise defective delivered files, and delivery-completion assistance where a valid purchase can be verified but the correct Product data still cannot be received, subject to Section 9 and Section 12.1. This delivery-completion assistance may include an alternate reasonable delivery method for Buyer-side download or access difficulties as described in Section 9. The same email address also accepts requests for access to, correction of, or deletion of personal information handled by Aoyama Persona, as described in the Privacy Policy.

B2B prospecting, marketing-contact, email-verification, outreach, and opt-out information is handled under the Privacy Policy and does not form part of the Product license granted under these License Terms. Opting out of marketing does not cancel or reduce a Lawful Purchase or any license rights already granted under these License Terms.

Questions concerning Sales Platform transactions or platform functions, including payment, purchase history, transaction status, refunds, partial refunds, disputes, chargebacks, cancellations, receipts, invoices, Library access, downloads, delivery, account status, or buyer protection, must be directed to the applicable Sales Platform’s support channel. This routing of platform matters does not exclude the Seller’s delivery-completion assistance under Section 9 and does not require the Seller to repair, restore, or guarantee the Sales Platform’s systems.

13. Set products

Set purchases follow the same license conditions.

These License Terms also apply to products sold as sets of multiple AI Characters.

The Characters included in a set are identified by the applicable product page, SKU, product description, included-character list, or another method specified by the Seller.

Each Complete Library is offered at its own fixed bundle price. Any displayed savings are calculated using the comparison basis shown for that Product. Category Complete Library savings are compared against the combined current prices of the four included Library Volumes, while Master Complete Library savings are compared against the combined current prices of the four Category Complete Libraries. Because each bundle is priced independently, no uniform or universal discount rate applies.

A set purchase does not provide a broader license or greater exclusivity than an individual purchase and does not transfer copyright or other intellectual property rights.

Each Character in a set remains subject to the use conditions, prohibitions, non-resale and non-redistribution rules, and non-exclusive status in these License Terms.

Characters added in the future, products not purchased, or other set products do not automatically become available for use.

14. Seller information

Seller and transaction information.

If the Product is sold on a third-party Sales Platform, some or all of the legally required seller information may be presented through that platform. The Seller remains responsible for the accuracy of information concerning the Seller.

When an overseas Sales Platform is used, the Seller will handle required disclosures and other legal matters for transactions subject to Japanese law as appropriate.

15. Display and changes

Changes apply prospectively in principle.

These License Terms are made available before purchase through the Site, product pages, License page, purchase screens, linked pages, or another method designated by the Seller.

The Seller may change these License Terms for legal reasons, Sales Platform rule changes, operational needs, or other reasonable reasons.

In principle, a revised version applies to products purchased after the revision takes effect.

For products already purchased, the Seller will avoid unfairly restricting material parts of the license granted at the time of purchase.

However, where reasonably necessary because of legal obligations, reasonably substantiated third-party rights claims, Sales Platform rule changes, or similar circumstances, the Seller may take the measures described in Section 10.5. Any permanent cessation request affecting a Product already purchased will be handled in accordance with Section 10.5.

The Buyer should save or otherwise retain the version of these License Terms applicable at the time of purchase together with the Gumroad receipt, Order ID, and delivered files. The Site does not provide a buyer-facing archive of every prior License Terms version, and later access to an earlier public version is not guaranteed.

16. Governing law and jurisdiction

Japanese law governs these License Terms.

These License Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of Japan.

If litigation becomes necessary between the Seller and Buyer concerning the Product or these License Terms, the district court having jurisdiction over the Seller’s location will have exclusive jurisdiction as the court of first instance to the extent permitted by law.

Where mandatory consumer-protection law or other applicable mandatory law requires different treatment, that law will apply.
