Terms and Conditions

Last updated: May 4, 2026

These Terms and Conditions (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of Diffusion Studio (the “Service”), provided by Diffusion Studio Inc., registered at 1207 Delaware Ave #2396, Wilmington, DE 19806, United States, registration number 7698816 (“we”, “us”, “our”).

By creating an account, signing in, installing the desktop application, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.

1. The Service

Diffusion Studio is an Integrated Media Environment (“IME”) that lets you generate, edit and orchestrate images, video, audio and other media using third-party AI models. The Service is accessible via the web app at https://app.diffusion.studio, the desktop application, and the public API.

We may modify, suspend or discontinue features at any time. Where a change materially reduces the Service for paid users, we will give you at least 14 days notice and offer a pro-rated refund of unused credits.

2. Eligibility and account

You must be at least 16 years old (or the age of digital consent in your country, whichever is higher) to use the Service. By using the Service you represent that you meet this requirement.

You may create an account using email/passcode or via Google, Apple or GitHub OAuth. You are responsible for keeping your credentials confidential and for all activity under your account. Notify us immediately at support@diffusion.studio if you suspect unauthorised access.

3. Credits, subscriptions and payment

The Service is metered in credits. Generations consume credits according to the model and parameters used; the per-feature pricing is published in-app and at https://diffusion.studio/pricing.

  • Subscriptions: Monthly or yearly plans grant a recurring credit allowance, reset on each billing date. Subscriptions auto-renew until cancelled.
  • Top-ups: One-time credit purchases that do not expire (or expire after 12 months, as configured at purchase).
  • Payment processor: All payments are processed by Stripe. By submitting payment details you also accept Stripe’s terms.
  • Taxes: Prices are exclusive of VAT and other taxes unless stated otherwise. Tax is added at checkout based on your billing address.
  • Failed payments: If a payment fails, we may suspend access to paid features after 7 days.

3.1 Right of withdrawal (EU consumers only)

If you are a consumer resident in the EU, you have the right to withdraw from a subscription within 14 days of purchase, in accordance with Directive 2011/83/EU.

However, by starting to use credits before the 14-day period expires, you expressly request that we begin performance of the service immediately and you acknowledge that you lose your right of withdrawal once the credits granted under that billing cycle are fully consumed (Art. 16(m), Directive 2011/83/EU).

To withdraw, email contact@diffusion.studio within the 14-day window. Refunds are issued via the original payment method within 14 days.

3.2 Refunds outside the withdrawal period

Outside the statutory withdrawal period, fees are non-refundable except where required by law or at our discretion.

You retain all rights in the prompts, parameters and media files you submit (“Inputs”).

You acknowledge that:

  • For damages caused by simple negligence, we are liable only for breach of a material contractual obligation (“cardinal duty”), and only up to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. In any event, our aggregate liability for such damages is limited to the total fees you paid to us in the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim, or USD 100, whichever is greater.
  • We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special or punitive damages, lost profits, lost data, or business interruption.

Sections 5, 6, 9, 10, 11, 13 and 14 survive termination.
