Terms of Use

Secta Labs Inc. (“Company”, “we”, “us” or “our”), is a technology company specializing in deep learning-related products that enable people to create realistic images of themselves for use.

These Terms of Use (these “Terms”) apply to all users and others (“Users”, “you”, as applicable) who register with, access or use (“Use”, “Using”) our web application secta.ai

By Using Secta, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, including the mandatory arbitration provision and class action waiver in Section 15 (Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration), do not Use Secta. Your continued Use of Secta will confirm your acceptance of these Terms.

These Terms are a binding contract between you and us. You are accepting and agreeing to these Terms on behalf of yourself or the entity that you represent in connection with the Use of Secta. If you are Using Secta on behalf of another person or entity, you represent that you are authorized to accept these Terms on that person, or entity’s behalf and that such person or entity agrees to be responsible to us if you or the other person or entity violates these Terms.

BY USING THE APPLICATION, YOU AFFIRM THAT YOU ARE OF LEGAL AGE TO ENTER INTO THE TERMS. YOU EXPLICITLY CONFIRM THAT YOU ARE AT LEAST 18/21 YEARS OLD (AS APPLICABLE IN YOUR JURISDICTION). If you have any questions about these Terms or Secta, please contact us via an email legal@secta.ai (for additional contact information, please, see Section 22 of these Terms.

NOTE:

Secta uses a Neural Network Model Stable Diffusion that allows users to generate personalized professional headshots and other realistic images. For questions about how Stable Diffusion works you can find answers in their FAQ

In general how our product works:

  • User uploads 10 to 20 photos and selects their gender. The user can abstain from selecting the gender by clicking “Other”.
  • Using these data, a copy of the Stable Diffusion model is retrained to personalize the model
  • After the model copy is retrained, it generates headshots
  • After the headshots are generated, we keep a copy of the user model and uploaded images for internal use purposes. This will not be shared with any 3rd party without the explicit consent of the user and is only used to improve the quality of our product. We set certain restrictions to the use the Headshots in restricted cases (e.g., using nude photos, using photos of other people without their consent e.t.c.). The full list of restrictions you can find in Section 6 

Also, we expect and appreciate you observing the rules of Secta Use listed in Section 6 of these Terms.


1. DESCRIPTION OF SERVICES

Secta is an application based software that uses your pictures, inputs and preferences to generate pictures that you can use for personal and commercial purposes. The application allows you to (a) upload photos and videos onto the application; (b) edit and modify uploaded photos and videos. Any processing of the photos is governed by our Privacy Policy

From time to time and without prior notice to you, we may change, expand, and improve the application. We may also, at any time, cease to continue operating part or all of the application or selectively disable certain features of the application. Your use of the application does not entitle you to the continued provision or availability of the application. Any modification or elimination of Secta or any particular features will be done at our sole discretion.

2. ELIGIBILITY

If you want to generate professional headshots, this requires you to be at least of the age of legal majority (it means you must be both: at least 18 years of age; and of the age of majority under the laws of your jurisdiction). We introduce such an age limitation for Headshots because the AI is unpredictable and, though we do our best to configure the safety settings, we do not want to harm any minors with any unexpected content.


Age limitation for the European Economic Area (“EEA”) and United Kingdom (“UK”) residents. Due to requirements of the General Data Protection Regulation (“GDPR”) and UK GDPR you shall be at least 16 years old in order to Use Secta. To the extent prohibited by applicable law, we do not allow Use of Secta by the EEA and UK residents younger than 16 years old. If you are aware of anyone younger than 16 using Secta, please contact us at legal@secta.ai

Age limitation for the use of Headshots. Due to unexpected results that could occur, you should be at least of the age of the legal majority, as applicable to you. If you know anyone using the feature under the age of legal majority, please let us know promptly about it by contacting us at legal@secta.ai

You represent and warrant that you have the full power and authority to enter into this agreement and that in doing so you will not violate any other agreement to which you are a party and that you have not been previously suspended or removed from Using Secta. You further agree to Use Secta in compliance with all applicable laws and to provide only true and accurate information to us. Secta is not available to any Users previously prohibited from Using it.

3. USER ACCOUNTS AND ACCOUNT SECURITY

TL;DR:

You can create an account in Secta, and you are responsible for maintaining confidentiality and control over your account by setting a secure password and/or not sharing links to any pages that may reveal your personal information


Certain Secta features or functionalities, that we may establish and maintain from time to time and in our sole discretion, may require you to register an account with us (“Account”). By creating an Account, you agree to: (i) provide accurate, current, and complete information for your Account, (ii) maintain and promptly update, as necessary, your Account information, (iii) maintain the security of your Account login information, (iv) be responsible for all activity that occurs via your account even if that activity is not by you or is without your knowledge or consent, and (v) immediately notify us if you discover or otherwise suspect any security breaches related to your Account.

4. PRIVACY

Please refer to our Privacy Policy for information about how we collect, process and transfer information about you when you Use Secta. Transfer and storage of information about you, whilst you Use Secta, is governed by our Privacy Policy. You acknowledge and agree that your Use of Secta is subject to our Privacy Policy.

5. USER CONTENT

TL;DR:

You can upload your photos or videos to Secta and receive generated headshots and then interact with these images. Both your original content and your edited or AI-generated content belong to you, and we claim no ownership over such content. You would need to give us a permission to use that content. You take this permission away when you delete any of your content from the app library or delete your account and its data.


Secta may allow you to upload, edit, create AI-generated, store, and share content, including your photos and videos (“User Content”). We do not claim ownership over your User Content, including AI-generated content you create Using Secta (for the purposes of these Terms, the term “User Content” explicitly includes any AI-generated content you create by Using the application).

We want you to enjoy the functionality of Secta seamlessly. Therefore, we would require a permit (called a license and referenced as a “Company License” explained further) to use your User Content uploaded to, downloaded from, and stored within the application. We would like to highlight that the Company license is limited to the purpose of our usage of your User Content and the parties we might share this User Content with. We do not sell any of your User Content with any third parties and use it for ensuring the appropriate functionality of the application only.

Therefore, solely for the purposes of operating or improving Secta, you grant us a time-limited, revocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, worldwide, fully-paid, transferable, sub-licensable license to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, create derivative works of your User Content, without any additional compensation to you and always subject to your additional explicit consent for such use where required by applicable law and as stated in our Privacy Policy. The Company License is for the limited purpose of operating Secta and improving our existing and new products, including but not limited to training Secta’s AI within and solely for your Use of the Headshots feature of the application or if otherwise implied by the Using of Secta and its services, unless you have provided us your additional explicit consent for the different purpose where required by applicable law. The Company License is time-limited in the sense that it automatically terminates when you delete the User Content from Secta’s library or by terminating your account with deletion of data associated with it.

You acknowledge and agree that our use of your User Content will not result in any injury to you or to any person you authorized to act on your behalf.

TL;DR:

here we impose some rules as to the content you may want to upload. Namely, you should own the photos or videos you upload, and if you don’t, then you should hold a proper license to upload such content to Secta. Also, in case you wish to upload a photo or video depicting your friend or anyone else other than you, you must do so only with their consent. In case you upload someone else’s content to Secta and we receive claims, you will indemnify Secta for such claims (it means that we will ask you to financially compensate us these claims). We encourage you to observe these rules and not harm others using their content without consent.


You represent and warrant that: (i) you own the User Content edited and adjusted by you on or through Secta or otherwise have the right to grant the rights and licenses set forth in these Terms; (ii) you agree to pay for all royalties, fees, and any other monies owed by reason of the User Content you intend to edit and adjust on or through Secta and approve to us that any usage of third-party User Content is otherwise cleared by you with the respective right holder; (iii) in case the User Content depicts third parties, you have received all the necessary consents from them to upload it to Secta; and (iv) you have the legal right and capacity to enter into these Terms in your jurisdiction.

You must not upload, edit, create, store or share any User Content that violates these Terms or to which you do not have all the rights necessary to grant us the Company License described above. You, furthermore, agree to indemnify, defend and hold Secta harmless for any unauthorized use of third-party User Content you might commit (both intentionally or unintentionally) in accordance with Section 11 “Indemnification” of these Terms.

We will not be liable to you for any modification, suspension or discontinuation of Secta, or the loss of any User Content, if this loss occurs outside of our control (e.g., due to a security breach). However, we hereby commit to informing you of such security incident in accordance with our Privacy Policy (and its Section 8 “Data Security”).

TL;DR:

Sometimes the things may not work out as planned. And we don’t claim or guarantee that Secta will always work perfectly. Just as we can’t claim or guarantee that you won’t see any unexpected results while generating your Headshots – it’s very unpredictable, although we are always working on AI’s quality and safety settings. We would highly appreciate your assistance, so if you see any offensive content generated by the AI, please report such content to us at contact@secta.ai


We do not control, endorse or take responsibility for any User Content (and its loss) or third-party content available on or linked to Secta. You acknowledge sole responsibility for and assume all risk arising from your use of any third-party websites or resources.

Your Use of Secta is at your sole risk. Secta is provided “as is” and “as available” without warranties of any kind, either express or implied, including, but not limited to, implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and non-infringement. In addition, we do not represent or warrant that Secta is accurate, complete, reliable, current, error-free or free of viruses or harmful components. You assume the entire risk as to the quality and performance of Secta within your Use.

Our Generated Headshots uses external technology Stable Diffusion AI. Due to this, we cannot fully control the results generated by the feature, and therefore these images in no way represent our official policy or position on religion, ethnic group, club, organization, company, individual, or anyone or anything. We make reasonable efforts to moderate the headshots feature by configuring the AI setting, which, in any case, are only those that are accessible to us. We do not and cannot moderate the User Content. By agreeing to the Terms and/or purchasing a subscription, you agree to the above disclaimer and waive any claims against us due to the generated images. In case you find the Headshots offensive or otherwise unacceptable, please let us know by reaching out to us at contact@secta.ai

13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

The Company and the other Company Parties will not be liable to you under any theory of liability — whether based in contract, tort, negligence, strict liability, warranty, or otherwise — for any indirect, consequential, exemplary, incidental, punitive or special damages or lost profits, even if you have been advised of the possibility of such damages.

The total liability of the Company and the other Company Parties, for any claim arising out of or relating to these Terms or Secta, regardless of the form of the action, is limited to the amount paid, if any, by you to Use Secta. In no event will the Company’s total liability arising out of or in connection with these Terms or from the Use of or inability to Use Secta exceed the amounts you have paid to Use Secta or ten ($10) U.S. dollars, if you have not had any payment obligations to the Company, as applicable. The exclusion and limitations of damages set forth above are fundamental elements of the basis of the bargain between the Company and you.

The limitations set forth in this Section will not limit or exclude liability for fraud or intentional misconduct of the Company or the other Company Parties or for any other matters in which liability cannot be excluded or limited under applicable law. Additionally, some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of incidental or consequential damages, so the above limitations or exclusions may not apply to you.

14. RELEASE

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, you release the Company and the other Company Parties from responsibility, liability, claims, demands, and/or damages (actual and consequential) of every kind and nature, known and unknown (including, but not limited to, claims of negligence), arising out of or related to disputes between the Users and the acts or omissions of third parties. You expressly waive any rights you may have under California Civil Code § 1542 as well as any other statute or common law principles that would otherwise limit the coverage of this release to include only those claims which you may know or suspect to exist in your favor at the time of agreeing to this release.

15. DISPUTE RESOLUTION; BINDING ARBITRATION

Please read the following Section carefully because it requires you to arbitrate certain disputes and claims with the Company and limits the manner in which you can seek relief from us.

Except for small claims disputes in which you or the Company seek to bring an individual action in small claims court located in the county of your billing address or disputes in which you or the Company seeks injunctive or other equitable relief for the alleged unlawful use of intellectual property, you and the Company waive your rights to a jury trial and to have any dispute arising out of or related to these Terms or Secta resolved in court. Instead, all disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms or Secta will be resolved through confidential binding arbitration held in Austin, Texas in accordance with the Streamlined Arbitration Rules and Procedures (“Rules”) of the Judicial Arbitration and Mediation Services (“JAMS”), which are available on the JAMS website and hereby incorporated by reference. You either acknowledge and agree that you have read and understand the rules of JAMS or waive your opportunity to read the rules of JAMS and any claim that the rules of JAMS are unfair or should not apply for any reason.

ANY ARBITRATION UNDER THESE TERMS BY EITHER YOU OR US WILL ONLY BE ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS; CLASS ARBITRATIONS, CLASS ACTIONS, REPRESENTATIVE ACTIONS, AND CONSOLIDATION WITH OTHER ARBITRATIONS ARE NOT PERMITTED. YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO HAVE YOUR CASE DECIDED BY A JURY AND YOU WAIVE ANY RIGHT TO PARTICIPATE IN A CLASS ACTION AGAINST US.

You and the Company agree that these Terms affect interstate commerce and that the enforceability of this Section 15 will be substantively and procedurally governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. § 1, et seq. (“FAA”), to the maximum extent permitted by applicable law. As limited by the FAA, these Terms and the Rules, the arbitrator will have exclusive authority to make all procedural and substantive decisions regarding any dispute and to grant any remedy that would otherwise be available in court; provided, however, that the arbitrator does not have the authority to conduct a class arbitration or a representative action, which is prohibited by these Terms. The arbitrator may only conduct an individual arbitration and may not consolidate more than one individual’s claims, preside over any type of class or representative proceeding or preside over any proceeding involving more than one individual. You and the Company agree that for any arbitration you initiate, you will pay the filing fee and the Company will pay the remaining JAMS fees and costs. For any arbitration initiated by the Company, the Company will pay all JAMS fees and costs. You and the Company agree that the state or federal courts of the State of California and the United States sitting in Santa Clara County, California have exclusive jurisdiction over any appeals and the enforcement of an arbitration award.

ANY CLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THESE TERMS OR SECTA MUST BE FILED WITHIN ONE YEAR AFTER SUCH CLAIM AROSE; OTHERWISE, THE CLAIM IS PERMANENTLY BARRED, WHICH MEANS THAT YOU AND THE COMPANY WILL NOT HAVE THE RIGHT TO ASSERT THE CLAIM.

You have the right to opt out of binding arbitration within 30 days of the date you first accepted the terms of this Section 15 by notifying the Company in writing. The notification must be sent to:

Secta Labs Inc
3310 San Benito Ct Austin Texas, 78738 legal@secta.ai

In order to be effective, the opt-out notice must include your full name and clearly indicate your intent to opt out of binding arbitration. By opting out of binding arbitration, you are agreeing to resolve Disputes in accordance with Section 16

16. GOVERNING LAW AND VENUE

TL;DR:

this agreement is governed by Texas Law.


These Terms and your Use of Secta will be governed by, construed and enforced in accordance with the laws of Texas, without regard to conflict of law rules or principles (whether of California or any other jurisdiction) that would cause the application of the laws of any other jurisdiction. However, some countries (including those in the European Union) have laws that require agreements to be governed by the local laws of the user's country. This paragraph doesn’t override those laws.

Any dispute between you and the Company that is not subject to arbitration or cannot be heard in small claims court will be resolved in the state or federal courts of Texas

17. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS

We may make changes to these Terms from time to time. If we make changes, we will post the amended Terms and update the “Effective date” above. In case we make substantial changes to the Terms (including the changes which might affect your rights), we will always notify you via in-app consent, email, or any other means of communication we may deem fit. If you do not agree to the amended terms, you must stop Using Secta. Your continued Use of Secta after we provide the notice will imply your acceptance of those changes.
