Content Policy
Effective date: 12 November 2026
Last updated: 12 November 2026
This Content Policy explains what you may and may not generate, request, upload or distribute through Studio Router. It supplements our Terms of Service and applies to everything you send to the Service: prompts, images, video, audio, reference files, API and MCP requests, and the outputs you generate.
It also applies to requests made by your agents, scripts and employees using your API key.
This policy is not a list of every prohibited use. If a request is intended to break the spirit of this policy, or the rules of the provider that serves it, we may block it.
1. Our approach
1.1 Studio Router routes requests to third-party model providers. We do not control their models, but we do have to follow their terms, and we have to follow the rules of our payment processor. Those rules are stricter than you might expect.
1.2 We do not offer an NSFW mode, and we do not permit sexually explicit content. Stripe, which processes our payments, prohibits adult content and services. Most of our model providers also prohibit it. A request for pornography or explicit sexual content will be blocked.
1.3 Sexual content involving minors is prohibited without exception. This is the most serious rule in this policy. It applies whether the content is real, computer-generated, drawn, animated, or described in text.
1.4 We may block a request, remove an output or suspend an account even where a specific example is not listed below.
2. Minors: zero tolerance
2.1 You may not use the Service to generate, request, upload, edit, distribute or attempt to obtain:
(a) child sexual abuse material (CSAM), in any form;
(b) any sexual or sexualised depiction of a person under 18, whether real, realistic, animated, drawn or described;
(c) nudity involving a person under 18;
(d) content that sexualises a child, including sexualised poses, clothing, captions or scenarios;
(e) content that depicts a child in a violent, abusive, exploitative or dangerous situation;
(f) content that "ages up" a child, or uses a child's likeness in an adult or sexual context; or
(g) any attempt to work around these rules, including euphemisms, fictional framing, or instructions to the model to ignore them.
2.2 A fictional character who appears to be under 18 is treated as a minor, even if the prompt says the character is an adult. "It's just a drawing" is not an exception.
2.3 We report apparent CSAM to the relevant authorities, including NCMEC's CyberTipline and local law enforcement, and we terminate the account. We may preserve and disclose the relevant records without notice where the law allows or requires it.
2.4 If you encounter apparent CSAM on or through the Service, do not download, copy or forward it. Report it to support@studiorouter.com and to NCMEC's CyberTipline (www.missingkids.org/gethelpnow/cybertipline) or your local police.
3. Sexual and adult content
3.1 You may not use the Service to generate, request or distribute:
(a) pornography, sexually explicit images or video, or content whose main purpose is sexual gratification;
(b) explicit sexual acts, genitalia shown for sexual purposes, or sexualised nudity;
(c) fetish content, sexual role-play, or erotic fiction presented as image or video generation;
(d) "undressing", "nudify" or similar tools or prompts; or
(e) content that promotes or facilitates prostitution, sexual exploitation or trafficking.
3.2 Non-sexual nudity may be acceptable in limited artistic, educational, medical or documentary contexts. We decide case by case, and we may block or remove any content we consider inappropriate. When in doubt, do not generate it.
3.3 The same rules apply to text prompts. Asking a model to write explicit sexual content is also prohibited.
4. Violence, harm and exploitation
4.1 You may not use the Service to generate or facilitate:
(a) graphic violence, gore or mutilation for shock value;
(b) animal cruelty or the depiction of animal abuse;
(c) content that promotes, encourages or gives instructions for self-harm, suicide or eating disorders;
(d) content that encourages dangerous stunts, challenges or activities that could cause serious injury;
(e) instructions for making weapons, explosives, or illegal drugs;
(f) terrorist or extremist propaganda, recruitment or operational guidance;
(g) child endangerment, neglect or abuse; or
(h) content that threatens or incites violence against a person or group.
4.2 Depictions of violence in a clearly labelled artistic, journalistic, educational or safety context may be allowed. We decide case by case.
5. Hate, harassment and abuse
5.1 You may not use the Service to generate or distribute content that:
(a) attacks or dehumanises people because of their race, ethnicity, nationality, religion, disability, age, sex, gender identity or sexual orientation;
(b) harasses, bullies, threatens or intimidates a person;
(c) defames a person or makes false factual claims about them;
(d) reveals private information about a person, including their address, phone number, workplace, family or location;
(e) encourages others to harass a person; or
(f) is intended to humiliate or degrade a person, including through sexualised or derogatory imagery.
5.2 Criticism, satire and discussion of sensitive topics are allowed, but not when they cross into hate, harassment or threats.
6. Illegal and deceptive use
6.1 You may not use the Service to:
(a) commit or facilitate fraud, scams, phishing or extortion;
(b) create fake identity documents, passports, licences, certificates, invoices, receipts or evidence;
(c) create counterfeit currency, tickets or branded goods;
(d) spread disinformation, including false claims about elections, health, emergencies or public safety;
(e) interfere with an election or voter suppression;
(f) distribute malware, spyware or ransomware, or provide hacking instructions;
(g) evade law enforcement, sanctions or export controls; or
(h) facilitate any other activity that is illegal where you use the output.
6.2 Satire and fiction are not a licence to deceive. If a reasonable person could mistake the output for a real document, event or statement, and the likely effect is harm, do not generate it.
7. Privacy and personal data
7.1 Do not use the Service to publish or facilitate the publication of another person's private contact details, home address, financial records, medical records or other sensitive information in a way that is intended to harass, threaten or harm them.
7.2 Do not use the Service to stalk, dox or facilitate domestic abuse.
7.3 If you process personal data through the Service, you are responsible for complying with the privacy laws that apply to you.
8. Intellectual property
8.1 You may not use the Service to infringe copyright, trademarks, database rights, design rights or other intellectual property.
8.2 In particular, do not:
(a) reproduce a copyrighted character, artwork, film still, song lyric or book excerpt in a way that infringes;
(b) use a trademark or logo in a way that is likely to confuse or falsely suggest endorsement;
(c) remove watermarks or rights-management information from an output or input; or
(d) pass off generated content as the work of a real artist, or as an official product of a company.
8.3 Some models have their own licence restrictions. It is your responsibility to check them before commercial use. See section 5.4 of the Terms.
8.4 We respond to valid copyright complaints under section 14 of the Terms and may suspend users who repeatedly infringe.
9. Provider rules still apply
9.1 Each model provider has its own terms and content policy. Some are stricter than this policy. A provider may refuse or filter a request that we would otherwise allow, and we cannot override that.
9.2 A provider may also require us to report abuse, restrict certain countries or uses, or remove content. We will comply with those requirements.
9.3 The model page or API response may explain a provider-specific restriction. If a request is refused by a provider, try another model only if the request complies with this policy.
10. Enforcement
10.1 We use automated moderation before generation, and we may review content manually. We may also act on reports from users, providers or authorities.
10.2 If we believe you have broken this policy, we may, depending on the seriousness and the number of incidents:
(a) block the individual request;
(b) remove the output or input;
(c) warn you;
(d) limit features or require manual review;
(e) suspend your account temporarily;
(f) terminate your account; and/or
(g) report the matter to law enforcement or a provider.
10.3 Serious violations, especially anything involving minors or pornographic content, may result in immediate termination without notice. We may preserve the relevant records and disclose them where the law allows or requires it.
10.4 If we terminate your account for a breach of this policy, unused credit may be forfeited to the extent the law allows. See section 4.4 of the Refund Policy.
10.5 We are not obliged to monitor all content, and moderation is not a guarantee that prohibited content will be caught. You remain responsible for what you generate and how you use it.
11. Reporting a violation
11.1 If you see content or behaviour that you believe violates this policy, email support@studiorouter.com. Include:
- the job ID or file URL, if you have it;
- a description of the content and why you believe it violates this policy;
- the date and time;
- your contact details, if you are willing to be contacted; and
- any other information that would help us investigate.
11.2 If the content involves apparent CSAM, also report it to NCMEC's CyberTipline, or in the EU to INHOPE (www.inhope.org), and to your local police. Do not download, copy or forward the material.
11.3 If someone is in immediate danger, contact your local emergency services first.
11.4 We will review reports as soon as we can. We may not be able to tell you the outcome, because of privacy and legal constraints.
12. Appeals
12.1 If we block a request or suspend your account and you believe it was a mistake, email support@studiorouter.com within 30 days. Include your account email, the job ID or a description of the request, and why you believe it complies with this policy.
12.2 A person will review the decision. We may ask for more information. We aim to respond within 10 business days.
12.3 We will not reverse a decision that we believe is necessary to comply with the law or to protect someone's safety. Our decision is final, but you can still contact a regulator or use the dispute process in the Terms.
13. Changes to this policy
13.1 We may update this policy from time to time. The current version is always on this page, with the effective date at the top.
13.2 For material changes, we will give notice by email or in the Service at least 14 days before the change takes effect, unless the change is required by law or is urgent for safety reasons. If you do not agree, you may stop using the Service and request a refund of unused credit.
