Terms of Service
Effective Date: May 7, 2026
These Terms of Service (the "Terms") form a binding legal agreement between you ("you," "your," or "User") and Color Intelligence Inc.("Color Intelligence," "we," "us," or "our"), a Delaware-incorporated corporation with its mailing address at 429 Lenox Ave, Unit 519, Miami Beach, FL 33139, United States.
These Terms govern your access to and use of:
- The Colourlab AI desktop application and all related software, updates, features, and components (the "Software");
- The websites at colourlab.ai, beta.colourlab.ai, and related subdomains (the "Sites"); and
- All documentation, beta builds, AI features, and online services we provide in connection with the Software (collectively with the Software and the Sites, the "Services").
By installing, accessing, or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not install, access, or use the Services.
These Terms include a binding arbitration clause and class action waiver in Section 19 that affect your legal rights. Please read them carefully.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years of age to use the Services. By accepting these Terms, you represent and warrant that you are 18 or older and have full legal capacity to enter into a binding agreement.
If you are using the Services on behalf of a business or other entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind that entity to these Terms, and "you" refers to both you individually and that entity.
2. Accounts and Authentication
To use most features of the Services, you must create an account. We use Google Sign-In for authentication. You are responsible for:
- All activity that occurs under your account;
- Maintaining the security of the Google account used to authenticate;
- Notifying us immediately at admin@colourlab.ai if you believe your account has been compromised.
You must provide accurate information and keep it up to date. You may not create an account using another person's identity or share your account with anyone else.
3. Private Beta Program
While Colourlab AI is in private beta, the following terms apply in addition to the rest of these Terms. In case of conflict between this Section 3 and any other section, this Section 3 controls for the duration of the beta program.
3.1 Free of charge
The private beta is provided free of charge.
3.2 As-is, no warranty
The beta version of the Software is pre-release, experimental, and provided strictly "AS IS" and "AS AVAILABLE." It may contain bugs, errors, crashes, performance issues, missing features, and behaviors that change without notice. We make no warranties of any kind regarding the beta, including any warranty of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, reliability, accuracy, or non-infringement.
You acknowledge that the beta should not be used for production work where data integrity, deadline reliability, or financial outcomes depend on the Software performing correctly. You use the beta at your own risk.
3.3 Beta confidentiality
The beta is confidential. You agree that you will not, without our prior written consent:
- Publicly disclose, share, post, stream, or describe the existence, contents, features, user interface, or behavior of the beta;
- Publish screenshots, screen recordings, video tours, or any other visual or written depiction of the beta on social media, YouTube, blogs, forums, or any other public or semi-public channel;
- Publish reviews, comparisons, benchmarks, or commentary about the beta;
- Disclose feedback, bug reports, or roadmap information shared with you in beta-only channels (such as private Discord channels, email threads, or beta release notes) to anyone outside the beta program.
These confidentiality obligations remain in effect until we publicly announce that the relevant feature, version, or program is generally available, or until we expressly release you from confidentiality in writing.
3.4 Feedback
Any suggestions, ideas, bug reports, feature requests, comments, or other feedback you provide regarding the Services ("Feedback") is provided to us without compensation, attribution, or any other obligation on our part. You hereby grant Color Intelligence a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, royalty-free, fully paid-up, sublicensable, transferable license to use, reproduce, modify, distribute, and exploit the Feedback in any manner and for any purpose, including incorporating it into the Services or other products. You waive any moral rights and any rights to compensation, royalties, or attribution in connection with the Feedback.
3.5 No commitment to launch
We make no commitment to release a generally available version of the Software, to include any particular feature in any release, or to continue the beta program for any particular period. We may modify, suspend, or terminate the beta program — or your access to it — at any time, for any reason, without notice.
4. License Grant (Paid Versions)
Upon exit from beta, the Software will be offered under one of the paid plans described in Section 5. Subject to your payment of all applicable fees and your continued compliance with these Terms, Color Intelligence grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable (except as set out below), revocable license to install and use the Software solely for the Permitted Use described in Section 6.
4.1 Activations
Each license entitles a single individual user to install and use the Software on up to two (2) computers concurrently, both used by that same individual. A license is personal to one named user — you may not share, sell, lease, sublicense, rent, or otherwise transfer your license to another person.
4.2 Transferring activations between your own computers
You may deactivate the Software on one of your computers and activate it on a different computer that you own or control, provided that no more than two (2) of your computers are activated at any one time and that all such computers remain operated by you personally.
4.3 Subscription vs. perpetual
A subscription license is valid only for the period for which you have paid (monthly or annual). A perpetual license is valid for the version of the Software for which it was purchased; major version upgrades may require a separate purchase or upgrade fee.
4.4 Reservation of rights
All rights not expressly granted in these Terms are reserved by Color Intelligence and its licensors. The Software is licensed, not sold. No title or ownership in the Software is transferred to you.
5. Subscriptions, Pricing, Payments, and Refunds
Once Colourlab AI exits beta, the Software will be available under the following plans:
| Plan | Price |
|---|---|
| Monthly subscription | $49 USD per month |
| Annual subscription | $490 USD per year |
| Perpetual license | $980 USD (one-time) |
5.1 Payment processing
All payments are processed by Stripe. By submitting payment information, you authorize us (and Stripe) to charge the applicable fees and any taxes to your selected payment method.
5.2 Automatic renewal
Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period (monthly or annual) at the then-current price, until you cancel. You may cancel at any time through your account settings or by emailing admin@colourlab.ai. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current paid period; you will retain access until that period ends.
5.3 Taxes
Prices are exclusive of any applicable taxes, levies, or duties (including VAT, GST, sales tax). You are responsible for all such taxes other than those based on Color Intelligence's net income.
5.4 Refunds
- Beta: No refunds apply, as the beta is provided free of charge.
- Subscriptions (monthly and annual): We offer a 30-day refund from the date of your initial purchase or initial subscription. After the initial 30 days, all fees, including renewal charges, are non-refundable. Refund requests should be sent to admin@colourlab.ai.
- Perpetual licenses: We offer a 30-day refund from the date of purchase, provided the Software has not been used in connection with commercial work product. After 30 days, perpetual license fees are non-refundable.
- Statutory rights: Nothing in this Section 5.4 limits any non-waivable refund or cancellation right you may have under applicable consumer protection law (including, where applicable, EU and UK consumer rights). Where such rights apply, they prevail.
5.5 Price changes
We may change prices for new subscriptions or new perpetual purchases at any time. For existing subscribers, we will provide at least 30 days' advance notice of any price increase before it takes effect at your next renewal.
5.6 Failed payments
If a payment fails, we may suspend or terminate access to the Software until payment is resolved.
6. Permitted Use
The Software is licensed for one purpose only: to perform color grading, color correction, color matching, and related post-production color work on still images and motion picture media that you own or for which you have obtained all necessary rights.
Any use of the Services outside this Permitted Use is strictly prohibited and constitutes a material breach of these Terms.
7. Prohibited Use
You agree that you will not, and will not permit, encourage, or assist any third party to, do any of the following:
7.1 Reverse engineering and tampering
- Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to derive the source code, object code, algorithms, model weights, model architectures, embeddings, training data, or internal logic of the Software or any AI model used by the Software;
- Modify, adapt, translate, or create derivative works based on the Software;
- Remove, obscure, or alter any proprietary notices, license keys, or branding;
- Bypass, disable, circumvent, or interfere with any license validation, activation, authentication, copy protection, security, or rate-limiting mechanisms;
- Use any tool, script, scraper, bot, automated agent, or other technical means to interact with the Software or its AI features other than the user interface and APIs we expressly provide.
7.2 AI, machine learning, and competitive use
You may not use the Software, any AI feature of the Software, or any output, embedding, response, intermediate result, or other data produced by the Software (collectively, the "Outputs") for any of the following purposes:
- Training, fine-tuning, distilling, evaluating, validating, benchmarking, or otherwise developing any machine-learning model, neural network, large language model, vision model, color model, look-prediction model, or any other artificial intelligence or statistical model;
- Creating, augmenting, labeling, or curating any dataset for the training, evaluation, or benchmarking of any such model;
- Building, supporting, marketing, or operating any product, service, or feature that competes with the Software or with Color Intelligence, including but not limited to any color grading, color matching, look generation, color analysis, semantic media analysis, or AI-assisted post-production tool;
- Reselling, repackaging, sublicensing, or providing the Software or any Output as a service or platform to third parties;
- Aggregating, extracting, or systematically collecting Outputs in bulk for redistribution or external use;
- Performance benchmarking, comparative analysis, or competitive intelligence regarding the Software for purposes other than your own internal evaluation as a user of the Software, and in no case for publication.
7.3 General misuse
- Use the Services in violation of any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right;
- Use the Services to process media that you do not own or for which you do not have all necessary rights and permissions;
- Use the Services to create content that is unlawful, infringing, defamatory, harassing, sexually exploitative of minors, or otherwise prohibited;
- Use the Services in any way that interferes with, disrupts, or places an unreasonable load on the Software, our servers, or our service providers;
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Services, other users' accounts, or any systems or networks connected to the Services;
- Misrepresent your identity or affiliation, or impersonate any person or entity.
7.4 No service-bureau use without authorization
Without our prior written consent, you may not use the Software to provide commercial color grading services through unattended automation, render farms, or batch processing pipelines that operate without an authorized licensed user being present and personally directing the work.
Violation of Section 7 entitles us to terminate your license immediately, revoke your access to the Services, retain any fees paid, and pursue all available legal and equitable remedies, including injunctive relief.
8. AI Features
Certain features of the Software use third-party AI providers — currently OpenAI (for image semantic analysis) and Anthropic (for AI agent orchestration via the Claude API). When you use these features, the relevant data is transmitted to those providers as described in our Privacy Policy.
8.1 Ownership of Outputs
As between you and Color Intelligence, you own the Outputsgenerated by AI features in connection with media you provide, subject to your compliance with these Terms and with the third-party providers' terms. Color Intelligence does not claim ownership of your color grades, looks, palettes, or other creative outputs.
8.2 No warranty regarding Outputs
AI Outputs may be inaccurate, inconsistent, or unsuitable for your intended use. You are solely responsible for evaluating and reviewing all AI Outputs before relying on them. We make no warranty that AI Outputs are accurate, error-free, or appropriate for any particular purpose.
8.3 Restrictions carry over
The restrictions in Section 7.2 (no use for training, benchmarking, competing models, etc.) apply fully to all Outputs.
9. Your Content
The Software is designed to operate primarily on your device. Your video files, project files, raw footage, color-graded output, LUTs, and intermediate processing data ("Your Content") remain on your device and are not uploaded to us, except for:
- Still images sent to OpenAI for semantic analysis when you use those features;
- Prompts and project metadata sent to Anthropic for AI agent features when you use those features;
- Diagnostic data sent through Sentry when the Software crashes or errors.
You retain all ownership rights in Your Content. You grant Color Intelligence a limited license to process Your Content solely as necessary to operate the Services for you.
You are solely responsible for Your Content and represent that you own it or have all necessary rights and permissions to use it with the Services.
10. Intellectual Property
The Software, the Sites, and all related materials — including all software code, models, model weights, algorithms, designs, user interfaces, documentation, trademarks, logos, and content — are and will remain the exclusive property of Color Intelligence and its licensors, protected by copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, and other intellectual property laws.
"Colourlab," "Colourlab AI," "Color Intelligence," and associated logos are trademarks of Color Intelligence Inc. You may not use these marks without our prior written permission, except for nominative fair use in accurate, non-misleading descriptions of the Software.
The Software incorporates certain third-party open source components, which are governed by their respective licenses; a list of such components and their licenses is included in the Software documentation or made available on request.
11. Termination
11.1 Termination by you
You may stop using the Services at any time. To cancel a subscription, use your account settings or email admin@colourlab.ai. To terminate a perpetual license, simply uninstall the Software.
11.2 Termination by us
We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services, your account, and any license (including a perpetual license) immediately and without refund if:
- You materially breach these Terms, including any provision of Section 6 (Permitted Use), Section 7 (Prohibited Use), or Section 3.3 (Beta confidentiality);
- We are required to do so by law, court order, or government request;
- Your continued use poses a security, legal, or operational risk to us, our service providers, or other users;
- Your account is inactive for an extended period, or your payment method has failed and is not corrected after reasonable notice.
11.3 Effect of termination
On termination, your right to access and use the Services ends immediately. You must uninstall the Software and destroy all copies in your possession. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including Sections 3.3 (Confidentiality), 3.4 (Feedback), 7 (Prohibited Use), 10 (IP), 12–18, 19 (Arbitration), and 20–24 — will survive.
12. Disclaimers
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE," WITH ALL FAULTS AND WITHOUT WARRANTY OF ANY KIND. TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, COLOR INTELLIGENCE AND ITS AFFILIATES, LICENSORS, AND SERVICE PROVIDERS DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, AVAILABILITY, COMPATIBILITY, AND ANY WARRANTIES ARISING FROM COURSE OF DEALING OR USAGE OF TRADE.
WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT ANY DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.
Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain warranties; in those jurisdictions, the above exclusions apply to the maximum extent permitted by law.
13. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW:
- IN NO EVENT WILL COLOR INTELLIGENCE, ITS AFFILIATES, OFFICERS, EMPLOYEES, AGENTS, LICENSORS, OR SERVICE PROVIDERS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, SPECIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST REVENUE, LOST DATA, LOST OR CORRUPTED MEDIA, MISSED DEADLINES, BUSINESS INTERRUPTION, OR LOSS OF GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
- COLOR INTELLIGENCE'S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THE SERVICES OR THESE TERMS WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100).
These limitations apply regardless of the legal theory (contract, tort, strict liability, or otherwise). Some jurisdictions do not allow the limitation of liability for certain damages; in those jurisdictions, the above limitations apply to the maximum extent permitted by law, and nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot lawfully be limited.
14. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Color Intelligence and its affiliates, officers, employees, agents, licensors, and service providers from and against any and all claims, damages, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or relating to:
- Your use of the Services;
- Your breach of these Terms;
- Your violation of any law or any third-party right;
- Your Content; or
- Any use of Outputs or the Software in violation of Sections 6 or 7.
We reserve the right, at our own expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter otherwise subject to indemnification by you, in which case you will cooperate with us in asserting any available defenses.
15. Modifications to the Services
We may, at any time and from time to time, add, modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature, component, or version of the Services, with or without notice. We will use commercially reasonable efforts to notify users in advance of material adverse changes that affect paid subscribers.
16. Modifications to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the "Effective Date" at the top of this document. For material changes, we will provide reasonable advance notice (such as by email or in-product notice) before the changes take effect. Your continued use of the Services after the effective date of revised Terms constitutes acceptance of those Terms. If you do not agree to revised Terms, you must stop using the Services.
17. Export Controls and Sanctions
The Services are subject to U.S. and other applicable export control and sanctions laws. You represent and warrant that you are not located in, organized under the laws of, or ordinarily resident in any country or region subject to comprehensive U.S. sanctions, and that you are not on any U.S. government denied-party or restricted-party list. You will not export, re-export, or transfer the Software in violation of applicable export laws.
18. Governing Law
These Terms and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the Services are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of laws principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods does not apply.
19. Dispute Resolution; Binding Arbitration; Class Action Waiver
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT REQUIRES YOU TO ARBITRATE DISPUTES WITH COLOR INTELLIGENCE AND LIMITS YOUR ABILITY TO SEEK RELIEF FROM US IN COURT.
19.1 Informal resolution
Before initiating arbitration, you and Color Intelligence agree to attempt to resolve any dispute informally for at least 30 days. Send a written notice describing the dispute to admin@colourlab.ai with the subject line "Dispute Notice."
19.2 Binding arbitration
If the dispute is not resolved within 30 days, any claim, dispute, or controversy arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Services will be resolved exclusively by final and binding arbitration, rather than in court, except as provided in Section 19.5.
The arbitration will be administered by JAMS under its Streamlined Arbitration Rules (or, at your option, by the American Arbitration Association under its Consumer Arbitration Rules). The arbitration will be conducted by a single arbitrator. The seat of arbitration will be Wilmington, Delaware, although you may elect to participate by telephone or videoconference. The arbitration will be conducted in English. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.
19.3 Class action waiver
You and Color Intelligence each agree that any dispute will be brought in an individual capacity only, and not as a plaintiff or class member in any purported class, collective, consolidated, or representative proceeding. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of representative or class proceeding. If this class action waiver is found to be unenforceable as to any claim, that claim must be brought in court, but the rest of this Section 19 will remain in effect.
19.4 Opt-out
You may opt out of the arbitration agreement and class action waiver in this Section 19 by sending written notice to admin@colourlab.ai with the subject line "Arbitration Opt-Out" within 30 days of first accepting these Terms. The notice must include your name, account email, and a clear statement of your intent to opt out. Opting out will not affect any other provision of these Terms.
19.5 Exceptions
Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may (a) bring a claim in small-claims court if it qualifies, and (b) seek emergency or injunctive relief in a court of competent jurisdiction to protect intellectual property rights, prevent breaches of confidentiality, or address violations of Sections 6 or 7.
19.6 Local consumer rights
If you are a consumer in a jurisdiction (such as the European Union or United Kingdom) where mandatory consumer protection laws prohibit binding arbitration or class action waivers, those laws prevail and the relevant provisions of this Section 19 will not apply to the extent prohibited.
20. DMCA and Copyright Complaints
If you believe content available through the Services infringes your copyright, please send a notice to admin@colourlab.ai including the information required under the U.S. Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). We will respond as required by law, which may include removing access to the allegedly infringing material and, in appropriate cases, terminating the accounts of repeat infringers.
21. Notices
We may give notice to you by email to the address associated with your account, by posting on the Sites, or through the Software. You must give notice to us by email to admin@colourlab.ai or by mail to:
Color Intelligence Inc.
429 Lenox Ave, Unit 519
Miami Beach, FL 33139
United States
22. Assignment
You may not assign or transfer these Terms or any rights or obligations under them without our prior written consent, and any attempted assignment in violation of this provision is void. We may assign these Terms at any time without notice in connection with a merger, acquisition, reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of our assets.
23. Force Majeure
We will not be liable for any failure or delay in performance to the extent caused by events beyond our reasonable control, including acts of God, natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, government action, labor disputes, internet or utility failures, third-party service failures, or pandemics.
24. General Provisions
- Entire agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any other policies referenced in them, constitute the entire agreement between you and Color Intelligence regarding the Services and supersede all prior agreements on the same subject.
- Severability. If any provision of these Terms is found unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain in full force and effect.
- No waiver. Our failure to enforce any right or provision is not a waiver of that right or provision.
- Headings. Headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation.
- Independent contractors. Nothing in these Terms creates any agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship.
- Third-party beneficiaries. There are no third-party beneficiaries to these Terms.
- Language. These Terms are written in English. Any translation is provided for convenience; the English version controls.
