These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of SINAI (the "Service"), operated by SINAI Productions Ltd. ("SINAI", "we"). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
You must be at least 13 years old (16 in the EU/UK) to use the Service. If you are under the age of majority in your jurisdiction, you represent that a parent or legal guardian has reviewed and agreed to these Terms on your behalf.
To publish content as a Creator, you must be at least 18 years old (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) and able to enter binding contracts.
You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately at security@sinaicinema.com if you suspect unauthorized access.
One person per account. You may not transfer, sell, or share your account.
As a viewer, you receive a personal, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and watch published content on the Service for your own non-commercial enjoyment.
You may not: (a) download, copy, re-upload, or redistribute content; (b) circumvent any technical protection measures; (c) use the Service to train machine learning models without our written consent; (d) scrape or bulk-collect data from the Service.
You retain all ownership rights in content you upload. SINAI does not claim ownership of your creative work.
By publishing content on the Service, you grant SINAI a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free (except for the revenue share described below), sublicensable license to host, store, reproduce, transcode, stream, distribute, display, and promote your content on and in connection with the Service, including in thumbnails, trailers, recommendations, and marketing materials for the Service.
This license survives for as long as your content remains published. When you delete content or terminate your account, the license ends within 30 days, except for: (a) cached or backup copies purged on our normal retention schedule; (b) aggregated analytics; (c) content already included in a third-party licensing deal you approved under Section 4.6.
SINAI does not require exclusivity. You may publish the same work on YouTube, Vimeo, or any other platform.
When ads are served against your content, SINAI shares net ad revenue attributed to your content with you:
"Net ad revenue" means gross ad revenue received by SINAI, less ad-network fees, payment-processing fees, refunds, chargebacks, and applicable taxes. Payouts are made monthly, thirty (30) days in arrears, when your balance reaches the minimum payout threshold (currently USD $50).
The permanent "Founding Creator" badge is awarded at our discretion before public launch. The 70/30 revenue share applies for 24 months from the date you are onboarded as a Founding Creator. After 24 months the standard 55/45 share applies. The badge remains visible on your profile indefinitely.
SINAI may receive third-party inquiries to license your content (e.g., for film festivals, distributors, platforms). We will not execute any third-party license on your behalf without your per-deal written approval.
When a licensing deal closes through SINAI, net license revenue is split 80% to you / 20% to SINAI, unless otherwise agreed in writing per deal.
Minimum deal size (SINAI brokerage):
Inquiries below the applicable threshold are forwarded to you directly to handle independently â SINAI takes no share of deals you close outside the platform.
You represent and warrant that: (a) you own or have all necessary rights to the content you upload, including rights in music, footage, voices, and any third-party assets used; (b) publishing the content on the Service does not infringe any third party's copyright, trademark, publicity, privacy, or other rights; (c) the content complies with all applicable laws.
SINAI is built for creators who use AI as a production tool. You represent that: (a) any AI-generated elements of your content were produced with services whose terms permit commercial use by you; (b) your content does not depict identifiable real people in a manner requiring their consent without obtaining that consent; (c) you comply with applicable AI-labeling laws where required.
Content submitted for publication passes a quality gate ("the SINAI Standard") reviewing script structure, visual coherence, pacing, and compliance with our Content Policy. We may: (a) approve; (b) request revisions; (c) decline publication, at our sole discretion.
Declined content does not earn you any right to payment or distribution. You may re-submit after revisions.
You may not publish content that:
Violations may result in content removal, account suspension, or termination without refund or revenue-share payout for the offending content.
SINAI responds to copyright notices under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). See our DMCA Policy for the notice and counter-notice procedures. Repeat infringers will have their accounts terminated.
You may terminate your account at any time from your account settings. We may suspend or terminate your account if you materially breach these Terms, repeatedly infringe, or if required by law.
On termination, your license to use the Service ends, published content is unpublished within 30 days, and any unpaid revenue share above the minimum threshold is paid out on the next monthly cycle (below threshold may be forfeited per our payout rules).
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. SINAI DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT CONTENT WILL EARN ANY SPECIFIC REVENUE OR AUDIENCE.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, SINAI'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE IS LIMITED TO THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNTS PAID TO YOU BY SINAI IN THE 12 MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) USD $100. SINAI IS NOT LIABLE FOR INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES.
You agree to indemnify and hold SINAI harmless from any claims, damages, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising from content you publish or your breach of these Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Israel, without regard to conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute shall be resolved exclusively in the courts of Tel Aviv-Yafo, Israel, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property rights.
Nothing in this section deprives EU/UK consumers of mandatory rights under their local law.
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be announced by email or in-product notice at least 14 days before taking effect. Continued use after changes constitutes acceptance.
