By purchasing or using any of our Services, you (“Client,” “you,” or “your”) agree to be legally bound by these Terms.
If you have a separate written contract or proposal for your project, those terms control in case of a conflict, but all other sections of this policy still apply.

3. Third-Party Tools, AI Systems & Dependencies
3.1 Use of Third-Party Platforms
To efficiently provide Services, we may use third-party platforms, applications, and AI technologies for editing, image processing, and content storage (“Third-Party Tools”). These include, but are not limited to, video editing software, cloud hosting platforms, and AI-based image generation tools.
3.2 AI Image Generation
- Our AI Branding Photoshoot service uses artificial intelligence (AI) or machine-learning platforms that generate images based on your likeness, reference photos, and creative prompts.
- We make every effort to use secure, private, or “stealth” modes of generation when available. However, you acknowledge that these tools are owned and operated by external providers, and we do not control their data storage or internal security policies.
- By engaging our Services, you authorize us to upload, process, and reference your name, image, and likeness solely for the creation of your deliverables.
3.3 Data Security & Limitations of Control
- While we select reputable vendors that claim to protect user data, we cannot guarantee absolute confidentiality, security, or deletion of data once uploaded.
- You understand that there is a small inherent risk that your name, image, or likeness could be stored, accessed, or exposed by a third party beyond our control.
3.4 Client Indemnification & Release
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Nicole Sellars Studios, its owners, contractors, employees, and affiliates from and against any claims, damages, losses, or liabilities arising out of or related to the use, misuse, access, or disclosure of your name, image, or likeness by third-party AI platforms or other digital service providers.
3.5 Informed Consent
By purchasing or using our AI Branding Photoshoot or any service involving AI tools, you acknowledge that:
- You have read and understood this clause.
- You consent to the use of your likeness for AI image generation.
- You accept the potential risks of working with third-party AI technology.
