Terms of use

nwty.me is a place for creators of AI-generated models — and for the few whose model is a real person — to publish a profile and be found. These terms are the agreement between you and the operator named in the imprint. Opening an account or using the site means they apply. The content guidelines are part of them.

Nothing here is charged for. There is no subscription, no purchase and no payment of any kind on this site, and nothing on it can be bought with money.

Who may join

Membership is by invitation. An account is personal: it belongs to the person who opened it, it is not to be shared, sold or handed on, and neither are the invite codes that come with it. You must be 18 or older to register, and to use any part of this site.

The details you give when registering have to be your own and have to be true. An account opened on someone else's behalf without their knowledge is closed when it is found. There is no right to be given an account, and an application can be declined without a reason being given.

What may be published

Every profile and every image is reviewed before it goes public, and again after every change. What is allowed is set out in the content guidelines. A submission can be sent back with a note, and anything already published can be taken down if it turns out to break them.

Review is a check, not a guarantee. That a profile passed it means somebody looked; it does not mean the material is lawful, that it is yours to publish, or that anybody else's rights have been cleared. Those remain your responsibility, and an approval does not move them.

What you are responsible for

You are responsible for everything you publish here, including where your links lead. If somebody else's rights are involved (a likeness, a photograph, a name, a trademark, a piece of music, the output of a tool whose terms restrict what may be done with it), you need the right to use it before it goes on your profile, and you must be able to show that you have it.

You confirm, for everything you publish, that you hold the rights needed to publish it here and to allow us to show it, and that publishing it breaks no law and no third party's rights.

If a third party makes a claim against the operator because of something you published, you will indemnify the operator against that claim and against the reasonable costs of defending it, unless you are not responsible for what caused it. You will be told about such a claim as soon as we know of it, and nothing will be conceded or settled over your head without giving you the chance to answer first.

Your material stays yours

Nothing you upload becomes ours. By publishing it here you allow nwty.me to store it, convert it into the sizes needed to display it, and show it on the site and in the previews that lead to your profile, including the preview card another site or a chat app builds from a link to you. That and nothing else: it is not licensed on to anybody, not sold, and not used to advertise anything but your own profile.

The permission is free of charge, non-exclusive, and lasts as long as the material is published here. It ends when you take the material down or close your account. Copies that remain for a short time in backups end with those backups, and a preview already cached by somebody else's service is outside anybody's reach here.

Sins

Sins are a number attached to an account that can be spent on things the site offers, such as being featured for a week. They are not money, they are not a currency, they cannot be bought for money, exchanged for money, transferred or paid out, and they carry no value outside this site. There is no claim to a particular balance, to anything the shop happens to offer today, or to any of it continuing to exist. If the site closes, they end with it.

When something is taken down

If a submission is refused, or something already published is removed, or an account is suspended or closed, you are told: what was affected, what rule or law it was measured against, and whether the decision came from a moderator's own reading or from a report somebody made. That is the statement of reasons Article 17 of the Digital Services Act asks for, and it is sent as a notice to your account.

You can object to any of it by writing to hello@nwty.me within six months of being told. An objection is read by a person, not by a machine, and is answered. If it turns out we were wrong, the decision is reversed and what was taken down goes back up. Nothing on this site is decided by automated means alone.

None of that takes away your right to go to court, or to use an out-of-court dispute settlement body certified under Article 21 of that Regulation.

Suspension and closure

An account that breaks these terms or the guidelines can be suspended, which takes its profile off the site while the matter is looked at, or closed outright in a serious case. A repeated or deliberate breach, and anything involving a minor, is a serious case.

The operator may also end the agreement in the ordinary way, without a reason, with four weeks' notice. The site is run by one person and may one day stop being run at all.

Ending it

You can close your account at any time from the account settings, without giving a reason. Everything goes offline at once and is kept for 30 days, during which logging in again undoes it; afterwards it is deleted for good.

What this site does not promise

nwty.me is run by one person and is offered as it is. There is no promise that it is reachable at all times, that it is free of faults, that a profile will attract anybody, that any particular feature will still be here next month, or that anything published here stays available for ever. Maintenance, a release and a failure at the hosting provider all mean the site is not there for a while, and none of them is a breach of this agreement.

There is no employment, agency or partnership between you and the operator. You publish on your own account and for your own purposes.

Liability

The operator is liable without limit for intent and gross negligence, and for injury to life, body or health. For slight negligence the operator is liable only where a duty has been breached that is essential to this agreement and that you may rely on being kept, and then only for the damage that was foreseeable and typical of an agreement of this kind. Liability under the Product Liability Act is unaffected, as is liability under any guarantee actually given.

Nothing in these terms limits liability where the law does not allow it to be limited.

Changes

These terms can change as the site does. A change that matters to members is announced before it takes effect, with at least four weeks between the announcement and the day it applies. If you do not want to accept it, you can close your account before that day; going on using the site afterwards means the new version applies. A change that only corrects a wording or reflects something the site already does takes effect when it is published.

The rest

If a single provision here turns out to be invalid, the rest stays as it is. The operator may transfer this agreement, or the site, to somebody else. You will be told before that happens and can close your account if you would rather not carry on with them. You may not transfer your account or your rights under this agreement to anybody.

Applicable law

German law applies, without prejudice to the mandatory consumer protection of the country you live in. If you are a consumer, nothing here takes away a right the law where you live gives you and does not allow to be signed away. The UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.

If you are a merchant, a legal person under public law or a public special fund, the courts at the operator's seat have jurisdiction.
