Terms

glu.tv has two parts. The directory is a curated index of films that play from their creators' own YouTube channels. glu studio is where signed-in members make images, video and voice with credits. These terms cover both and say which rule belongs to which.

Who we are

glu.tv and glu studio are run by ykeo Pty Ltd, an Australian company. In these terms and the privacy policy, "we" and "us" mean ykeo Pty Ltd. You can reach us through the contact form.

The directory: what you're looking at

Every film in the directory plays from its creator's own YouTube channel, embedded here through YouTube's own player. We don't upload it, re-encode it or store it, and we claim no ownership over what you're watching. The rights belong to whoever made it. Browsing the directory needs no account.

YouTube's rules still apply

Playback happens inside YouTube's player, so YouTube's own Terms of Service govern the viewing itself. Age restrictions, region locks, sign-in prompts: that's YouTube's call, not ours. If a video won't play for you, there's nothing we can do about it from this end.

Using the directory

You can't upload anything or comment on the directory. You browse and you watch. Please don't scrape the site or go poking at the embeds, and don't use glu.tv to imply we made or endorsed something we didn't.

glu studio

glu studio, at glu.tv/studio, is a private beta. You need an invite and an account. It uses AI models to make images, video and voiceovers from your prompts, photos and recordings, and to put short films and ads together from them. It differs from the directory in one big way: what you make there is stored with us, whereas the directory's films stay on YouTube.

It's a beta, so things change. Features, limits and prices can be added, changed or removed, the studio can be slow or unavailable, and we can't promise any particular result. Download anything you want to keep. If we end the studio or a feature, we'll try to give you notice and a chance to download your files.

Your account

You must be 18 or older to have a glu studio account. You confirm that, and agree to these terms and the privacy policy, the first time you sign in. We don't check ID. If we change these terms in a way that matters, we'll ask you to agree again at your next sign-in.

You sign in with Google, Discord or a link we email you. Keep that access to yourself. What happens in your account is your responsibility, so tell us at once if someone else has got in. We can suspend or close an account that breaks these terms or abuses the service, and during the beta we can decline or withdraw an invite. The glu community on Discord is a separate service: Discord's terms and that server's house rules apply there.

Credits

Making things in glu studio costs credits. The cost of a job is shown on its button before you start, and it is taken from your balance when the job begins. During the beta we add credits to accounts ourselves, and you can ask for more from the Credits page.

Credit packs aren't on sale yet. Before they are, we will update these terms with the price, the payment provider and the refund and cancellation terms, and the price you see will be the total you pay, including any tax and fees.

Credits we add to your account during the beta expire 12 months after they are added, unless we tell you a different date when we add them. Your balance and credit history are on the Credits page. Credits belong to your account, can't be transferred and have no cash value, except where the law requires a refund. If you think a balance is wrong, tell us and we will check it.

If a generation fails or is cancelled before it produces a result, the credits it cost go back to your balance automatically. If it finishes but isn't what you hoped for, the credits are still used and you can run it again. None of this limits your rights under the Australian Consumer Law, covered below.

What you put in

You can give glu studio prompts, photos, video, audio, voice recordings, product details and logos. By doing so you're saying that you made them or have the right to use them this way, that anyone recognisable in them has agreed to appear, and that you're allowed to have them processed by AI as the privacy policy describes.

Don't use glu studio to make or share anything unlawful, sexual or pornographic, abusive, or that sexualises or endangers children. Don't use it to pretend to be a real person, brand or organisation, or to clone or imitate someone's voice or likeness without their permission. Don't use it to infringe anyone's copyright, trade mark or privacy, and don't try to get around the content checks, rate limits or credit system.

The AI provider runs its own content checks and can refuse a request, and so can we. We can remove content, or switch off a share link, that breaks these rules. If you see something that does, tell us through the contact page.

Your voice

You can make a voice from a recording of your own voice, or of someone who has given you permission, to use for voiceovers in your own work. You confirm that with a tick box first, and we keep a record of what you agreed to and when. You can keep up to three voices and delete any of them at any time, which also removes it from the AI provider. A voice only ever speaks lines you type.

Ads and AI labels

If you make an ad, you are responsible for what it claims, and for following advertising and consumer law and each platform's ad rules. The script is written from the words you give us and we don't check your claims, so read it before you publish. Many platforms, including TikTok, YouTube and Meta, ask you to label AI-generated content, and labelling it is up to you. The captions we suggest for ads include "#ad" and "Made with AI" as a starting point. They aren't a promise that you've met a platform's rules.

What you make

You keep ownership of what you make in glu studio, to the extent anyone can own it. Whether AI-generated material attracts copyright is unsettled in many places, and we don't promise it does. We don't claim your outputs as ours. Your use of them is subject to these terms, to rights other people hold in what you put in, and to the usage rules of the AI models that made them.

You give us a non-exclusive, worldwide licence to store, process, copy, display and deliver your content and outputs so we can run glu studio for you. That includes showing a share page you create, keeping the studio secure, and improving the studio, including by looking at how it is used (prompts and settings). The licence ends when your content is deleted, apart from the 30-day window described in the privacy policy.

At the moment what you make carries no glu mark. If some plans later add a small "Made with glu" end card or badge, we'll show that before you start, and you should leave it in place.

AI output can be wrong, strange, or accidentally similar to existing work or real people, and two people can get similar results. Check it before you rely on it or publish it, especially commercially. To the extent the law allows, we can't promise an output is free of other people's rights.

Sharing

Share links and file addresses are public to anyone who has them. They're long and can't be guessed, but they aren't password protected, so only share them with people you're happy to have the file. Deleting a share link in glu studio stops the share page working. The file's own address stops working once the file has been deleted and purged. glu studio doesn't post to your YouTube, TikTok or Meta accounts for you: you download the file or use your phone's share sheet.

No guarantees

We can't promise the site will always be up, or that a film that played yesterday will play today. Creators pull their videos sometimes, and that's their right rather than something we'd try to prevent. The directory and glu studio are provided as they are, without warranties of any kind, to the extent the law lets us say that. Nothing here excludes a guarantee you're entitled to under the Australian Consumer Law that can't lawfully be excluded.

Your rights under Australian Consumer Law

Our services come with guarantees under the Australian Consumer Law that can't be excluded. They include that we provide services with due care and skill, that they're fit for any purpose you've made known to us, and that they're supplied within a reasonable time. If a service has a major failure, you can choose a refund or compensation for the drop in value. For a minor failure we can fix the problem or supply the service again. These guarantees can apply to a business buying services as well as to individuals, depending on the price and the kind of service. Nothing in these terms is meant to limit them, and if a term does, the law wins.

Removal: ours and yours

Directory curation is manual, which means we remove films at our own discretion. A channel goes private, a creator asks, or we change our mind about something we listed. If you made something here and want it off the site, tell us through the contact page and we'll take it down.

In glu studio you can delete your creations, files, share links and account yourself. What happens next is in the privacy policy. We can also remove studio content that breaks these terms.

If something goes wrong

To the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for loss or damage arising from your use of the directory, or from content that lives on someone else's YouTube channel. A dispute about what's in a video sits with its creator and with YouTube, not with us.

For glu studio, to the extent the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect or consequential loss, or for loss of profit, revenue or data. Where a guarantee under the Australian Consumer Law can lawfully be limited, our liability for breaching it is limited to supplying the service again or paying the cost of having it supplied again. You're responsible for what you upload, make and publish. Nothing here limits liability that the law doesn't let us limit.

Changes to these terms

We'll change these terms from time to time. The date at the top is the latest version. If a change matters, we'll ask glu studio members to agree again at their next sign-in.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of Australia, where glu.tv is based. If you are a consumer, you keep any rights under the Australian Consumer Law and your local mandatory consumer laws. If we have a disagreement, contact us first. If we haven't sorted it out within 30 days, either of us may propose mediation before starting court proceedings.
