Terms of Service

last updated · February 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") are a binding contract between you and TattooProof ("we", "us", "our"), governing your access to and use of our website, web application and related services (collectively, the "Services").

By creating an account, signing in, or otherwise using the Services you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Notice. If you do not agree, you may not use TattooProof.

Please read section 6 carefully. It explains that AI-generated concepts, mockups, briefs and recommendations are provided for inspiration and planning only — every final decision about a tattoo remains the responsibility of you and your tattoo artist.

1.

Agreement & acceptance

In Short: By using TattooProof, you agree to these Terms and our Privacy Notice.

These Terms apply to every visitor, user and account holder. We may update them from time to time as described in section 16; your continued use of the Services after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms.

If you are using TattooProof on behalf of a business or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms — in which case "you" refers to that entity.

2.

Eligibility & accounts

In Short: You must be at least 18 years old. You sign in with Google today and, in the future, with Apple Sign-In.

By using the Services you represent that you are at least 18 (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction) and that you are not barred from receiving services under the laws of your country of residence.

You are responsible for everything that happens under your account, including keeping your sign-in credentials secure. Notify us at hello@tattooproof.com if you suspect unauthorized use. We may suspend or terminate accounts that show signs of fraud, abuse or breach of these Terms.

What TattooProof does

TattooProof is an AI-assisted tattoo-discovery service. It guides you through a conversation about the meaning behind a tattoo, narrows style, size, body placement and color preferences, generates concept images and on-body realistic mockups, synthesizes an artist-ready brief, and lets you export that brief as a PDF or as a shareable URL for a tattoo artist.

For redesign projects, you may upload a photo of an existing tattoo. We use AI vision to describe what we see, and then assist you in generating a cover-up, refresh or replacement concept.

TattooProof is not a tattoo studio, a tattoo artist, a medical or healthcare service, or a legal advisor. It is a creative planning and translation tool.

4.

Your content — your ownership

In Short: You own everything you put in and everything we generate for you.

Your inputs. The descriptions, memories, stories, prompts, answers, photos and reference images you provide are entirely yours.

Your outputs. The tattoo concept images, on-body mockups, design rationale and brief that we generate for you are also yours. TattooProof claims no ownership over your intellectual property. Take your brief to any artist. Print it. Frame it. Send it to a hundred studios. It's yours.

The licence you grant us. To run the Service for you, you grant TattooProof a limited, revocable, worldwide, royalty-free licence to store, transmit, process and display your inputs and outputs back to you within the product, and to share the minimum data needed with our AI processing partner (currently OpenAI via Emergent's managed integration) solely to produce your tattoo concepts, mockups and brief. This licence ends the moment you delete the project or your account.

Your responsibility. You confirm that you have the right to upload any photo you submit, that you are not infringing a third party's rights, and that your inputs do not violate the Acceptable Use rules in section 9.

5.

AI features & accuracy

The discovery conversation, brief synthesis, concept image generation, on-body mockups and vision-based descriptions of uploaded existing tattoos are powered by artificial intelligence accessed through our AI Service Provider(s).

AI output is probabilistic and imperfect. Generated images and text may contain artefacts, anatomical inaccuracies, factual mistakes or stylistic choices that diverge from your intent. You should review every output before relying on it.

6.

AI output is for inspiration & planning only

In Short: Every final decision about a tattoo is between you and your tattoo artist. TattooProof is a starting point, not a stencil.

AI-generated concepts, mockups, briefs and recommendations produced by TattooProof are provided for inspiration and planning purposes only. They are not a finished tattoo stencil, not a medical recommendation, and not professional advice of any kind.

Final tattoo suitability, safety, placement, sizing, design decisions and execution remain the responsibility of the tattoo artist and the client. You agree to:

  • — Work with a licensed, reputable tattoo artist when actually getting inked.
  • — Discuss the brief with your artist and accept their professional judgement on what is realistically tattooable, on what holds up in skin over time, and on what is appropriate for your body and skin.
  • — Disclose to your artist any medical conditions, allergies, medications, pregnancy or other circumstances that may affect tattoo suitability or healing. TattooProof does not collect or evaluate health information.
  • — Be aware that some placements, sizes, levels of detail or colors that AI can render in an image may not translate well to actual skin — your artist's guidance overrides ours.
  • — Use TattooProof output as a conversation starter with your artist, not as a substitute for their craft.

TattooProof is not liable for any tattoo, alteration to your body, allergic reaction, infection, dissatisfaction, regret, or other outcome resulting from a decision you or your artist make based on material generated by TattooProof. See sections 12 and 13.

7.

Pricing, payments & subscriptions

In Short: Free users get the full discovery flow and a watermarked low-resolution preview. Paid plans unlock high-resolution images, on-body mockups, multiple variations, PDF export and sharing.

TattooProof is a freemium service. We currently offer three plans:

  • $7.99 — Single project. One-time purchase, unlocks one project (high-resolution concepts, on-body mockup, PDF export and shareable artist link).
  • $14.99 — Single project + 3 variations. One-time purchase. Same as above, with up to three design variations on that project.
  • $19.99 / month — Unlimited. All projects unlocked for a 30-day rolling period.

All prices are shown in U.S. dollars and are charged through Stripe. We never see or store your full card number, CVV or bank details — those are handled by Stripe directly. We do store the Stripe session ID, the package purchased, the amount, the payment status and timestamps.

Auto-renewal. The monthly plan is currently a 30-day rolling top-up rather than an auto-renewing subscription; we will give you at least 14 days' in-app notice before introducing auto-renewing subscriptions. If we do introduce auto-renewal you will be able to cancel from your account before the next renewal date.

Taxes. Prices may not include applicable VAT, GST or sales tax, which Stripe may add at checkout based on your billing location.

8.

Refunds

Because each paid unlock immediately consumes AI compute and produces high-resolution images, mockups and a PDF brief that you can download and keep, digital purchases are generally non-refundable once an unlock has been applied to a project or a subscription period has begun, except where a refund is required by law (for example, EU cooperative-withdrawal rights in certain situations, or California consumer-protection law).

If you believe you were charged in error or experienced a clear service failure (e.g. the generation pipeline failed to produce any output and you have not been able to use the unlock), contact us at hello@tattooproof.com within 14 days of the charge and we will investigate in good faith.

9.

Acceptable use

You agree NOT to:

  • — Upload photos that are not yours to share, or that depict another identifiable person without their consent.
  • — Use TattooProof to generate hateful, harassing, sexually explicit, violent, deceptive, or otherwise illegal imagery, or any imagery depicting minors.
  • — Attempt to bypass the paywall, scrape outputs, reverse-engineer the Services, or otherwise abuse rate limits or the generation pipeline.
  • — Use the Services to infringe a third party's intellectual property, trademark, publicity or privacy rights.
  • — Misrepresent TattooProof-generated material as the original work of a tattoo artist, or use it to mislead an artist about your wishes, identity, age or consent.
  • — Resell, sublicense, or commercially redistribute TattooProof output as a stock-image catalog or generator service.
  • — Interfere with the security or operation of the Services, transmit malware, or test for vulnerabilities without our written permission.

We may remove content, suspend generation, and terminate accounts for violations.

10.

Termination & account deletion

In Short: You can delete your account at any time, immediately and irreversibly.

You may delete your account at any time from the Danger Zone in your studio. Deletion permanently removes your user profile, every project, every uploaded photo, every concept image and mockup, every session and every stored payment-transaction record. The action is immediate; backups are purged within 30 days. Stripe will retain its own transaction record per their policy and applicable tax law.

We may suspend or terminate your account if you breach these Terms, if we are required to by law, or if continuing to provide the Services to you would pose a risk to other users, our staff or the integrity of the Service.

Sections that by their nature should survive termination (including content licence, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and governing law) will survive.

11.

Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE", WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, TattooProof disclaims all warranties, whether express, implied or statutory, including but not limited to implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, non-infringement, accuracy, reliability, availability and quiet enjoyment.

We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure or free of viruses; that AI-generated output will be accurate, appropriate, original, unique, free of artefacts, or suitable for any particular use (including any actual tattoo application); or that results will meet your expectations.

12.

Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, TATTOOPROOF IS NOT LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, REVENUE, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES.

This includes — without limitation — any decision you or a tattoo artist makes based on AI-generated concepts, mockups, briefs or recommendations (see section 6), any physical, medical, dermatological or aesthetic outcome of an actual tattoo, and any costs of tattoo removal, cover-up or correction.

Our aggregate liability for any claim relating to the Services will not exceed the greater of (a) USD 50, or (b) the amount you paid TattooProof in the 12 months immediately before the event giving rise to the claim. Some jurisdictions do not allow these limitations; in those jurisdictions our liability is limited to the maximum extent permitted by law.

13.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify and hold harmless TattooProof and its officers, employees, contractors and agents from and against any claim, damage, loss, liability, cost or expense (including reasonable legal fees) arising from or related to (a) your inputs and any content you upload, (b) your use of TattooProof output, including any tattoo you obtain based on it, (c) your breach of these Terms or any applicable law, or (d) your violation of a third party's rights.

14.

Copyright complaints

If you believe content on TattooProof infringes your copyright, please send a notice to legal@tattooproof.com including: (i) your contact information; (ii) identification of the copyrighted work; (iii) identification of the allegedly infringing material; (iv) a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use is not authorized; (v) a statement under penalty of perjury that your notice is accurate and that you are the rights-holder or authorized to act for them; and (vi) your physical or electronic signature. We will respond to valid notices in accordance with the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act.

15.

Governing law & disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws principles. Any dispute arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will be resolved in the state and federal courts of New Castle County, Delaware, except where prohibited by the mandatory consumer-protection laws of your country of residence.

Before filing a formal proceeding, you agree to first contact us at legal@tattooproof.com and attempt in good faith to resolve the dispute. If we cannot reach a resolution within 60 days, either party may proceed.

16.

Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. The updated version will be indicated by a new "Last updated" date at the top. Material changes will be announced inside the product at least 14 days before they take effect, or by email where required. Continuing to use the Services after a change takes effect means you accept the updated Terms.
