Terms of Use & Privacy Policy

SPIA is a web application that helps users assess whether images and videos may be AI-generated or manipulated. These terms and our privacy practices apply when you use the SPIA website and service.

Terms of Use

Last updated: March 31, 2026

Acceptable use

You agree to use SPIA only for lawful purposes and in a way that does not infringe the rights of others or restrict their use of the service. You must not upload content that is illegal, that you do not have the right to submit, or that is intended to harass, exploit, or harm anyone. You must not attempt to probe, disrupt, or bypass our systems, security measures, or rate limits, or use SPIA to build competing services through scraping or automated abuse unless we give you written permission.

No guarantee of results

SPIA uses automated models to estimate the likelihood that media is AI-generated or synthetic. Results are estimates only and are not guaranteed to be accurate. There can be false positives, false negatives, and uncertain cases. Output may depend on file quality, format, length (for video), and limitations of the underlying detection technology. SPIA is not a substitute for professional judgment, legal advice, forensic analysis, or official certification. You should treat every result as indicative, not definitive.

Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, SPIA and its operators provide the service on an “as is” and “as available” basis, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied. We are not liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for loss of profits, data, goodwill, or business, arising from your use of SPIA or reliance on its results. Our total liability for any claim related to the service shall not exceed the amount you paid us for the service in the twelve months before the claim (or, if you have not paid us, zero), except where the law does not allow such limitations.

Changes

We may update these Terms of Use from time to time. Continued use of SPIA after changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated terms where permitted by law.

What we collect

When you use SPIA to verify media, we process the images and videos you upload (or paste) in order to run detection. We may also collect limited technical information needed to operate the site, such as standard server logs (for example, approximate timestamps and error diagnostics). We do not require you to create an account to use basic features unless we say otherwise on the site.

How long we keep your data

Uploaded media is retained only as long as needed to perform verification, maintain safe operation of the service, and meet legal obligations. After processing, files are deleted or overwritten on our systems within a reasonable operational period unless a longer retention period is required by law or necessary to investigate abuse. Third-party providers that help us run detection may have their own retention rules; we use them only to deliver the service and under appropriate agreements.

We do not sell your data

We do not sell your uploaded images, videos, or personal information to third parties. We do not use your uploads for targeted advertising profiles. If we ever work with vendors or partners, it is to host, secure, or analyze content strictly to provide SPIA, not to monetize your data.
