By using The Artist Block ("the platform", "this site"), you agree to the following terms. Please read them — they're short and written in plain English.
You may not reproduce, copy, or distribute the platform, its interface, or its underlying prompts without written permission.
2. YOUR GENERATED CONTENT
The creative briefs, colour palettes, and recommendations generated for you are yours. You can use them however you like — for personal projects, client work, exhibitions, commercial use — with no attribution required. We make no claim over what you create using this tool.
3. REFERENCE IMAGES
Images displayed on your board are sourced from third-party APIs including Unsplash, Pexels, museum collections (Tate, MoMA, V&A, Art Institute of Chicago, Harvard Art Museums, Europeana), and others. Each image is subject to its own licence. Attribution is shown when you click an image. We do not host these images — they are fetched directly from their original sources.
If you upload your own reference images, they are processed in your browser only and are never stored on our servers.
4. YOUR LICENCE KEY
Each order ID grants access to one person. Order IDs are non-transferable and may not be resold, gifted to multiple people, or shared publicly. We reserve the right to revoke access if an order ID is being misused.
5. AI-GENERATED CONTENT
Briefs are generated using the Anthropic Claude API. While we prompt for accuracy, AI can occasionally produce incorrect information — for example, a book or film that doesn't exist, or an artist attribution that's imprecise. Always verify recommendations before relying on them professionally.
6. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY
The Artist Block is provided as-is, without warranty of any kind. We are not liable for any damages arising from your use of the platform, including — but not limited to — loss of data, creative decisions made based on generated content, or service interruptions.
7. CHANGES TO THESE TERMS
We may update these terms occasionally. Continued use of the platform after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the updated terms. The date at the top of this page reflects the most recent revision.
