Terms of
Service

These terms

By using this website, sending an enquiry, or accepting a proposal from Lazy Lab (“Lazy Creator AI Lab”, “we”, “us”), you agree to these terms. If you accept on behalf of a company, you confirm you have authority to bind it.

Order of precedence, highest first: a signed master services agreement; a signed proposal or statement of work (“SOW”); these terms. We may update these terms; the version in force is the one published when your SOW is signed.

What we do

We produce commercials and brand films, music videos, AI films and world-building, UGC and digital-influencer content, animation and design. Production is AI-assisted: creative direction, storytelling, editing, sound and post are performed by our team using generative and conventional tools.

Quotes & scope

Quotes are valid for [30] days and are based on the brief as given to us. The SOW defines deliverables, formats, durations, number of variants, revision rounds and timeline. Anything outside it is a scope change, quoted and approved separately before we proceed.

Timelines assume you provide materials, feedback and approvals within the agreed windows. Delays on your side move the delivery date accordingly.

Fees & payment

• Unless the SOW says otherwise, 50% is payable in advance to begin work and the balance on delivery of the final files.
• Invoices are due within [15] days. Overdue amounts may attract interest at [1.5%] per month.
• Fees exclude taxes (including GST), third-party licences, stock, music, talent fees, paid tools and media spend, unless expressly stated.
• We may pause work or withhold final files while an invoice is overdue.
• Advances cover work already performed and are non-refundable once production has started.

Your responsibilities

• Give us accurate briefs, brand guidelines and product information.
• Supply assets in usable formats and on time.
• Nominate one person empowered to give feedback and sign off.
• Confirm that everything you send us — logos, footage, music, images, scripts, product claims — is either yours or properly licensed for the use described in the SOW.
• Ensure the final work complies with the advertising, labelling and consumer-protection rules of the markets you publish in. You are the publisher; you own that call.

Ownership & intellectual property

Your material stays yours. Trademarks, brand assets and content you supply remain your property; you grant us a licence to use them for the duration of the project.

Deliverables transfer on payment. On receipt of all sums due, you receive the ownership or exclusive licence stated in the SOW to the final approved deliverables, for the media, territories and term specified. Until we are paid in full, all rights in the work remain with us and the work may not be published.

What we keep. We retain ownership of our pre-existing and background IP, and of the means of production: project and source files, layers, 3D scenes, character models and LoRAs, prompt libraries, pipelines, scripts, tooling, presets and know-how. These are not deliverables and are not transferred, and nothing in an SOW transfers our general capability to work in the same style, genre or category for others.

Rejected concepts and unused variants remain ours. Third-party elements — stock, fonts, music, voice models, plug-ins — are licensed, not sold; the licence terms and any renewal costs pass through to you, and we will tell you which elements carry restrictions.

Source or project files can be released for a separate fee if the SOW provides for it.

Portfolio & credit

Unless the SOW says otherwise, we may show completed work in our portfolio, on this website, in showreels, pitch decks, award entries and social channels, and identify you as a client. If your work is confidential or embargoed, tell us in the SOW and we will hold it back — for a defined embargo period or permanently.

Where practical we would like a production credit, but we don’t require one.

How AI is used

Our work is produced with generative AI tools alongside conventional craft. You should understand and accept the following:

• Copyright in AI-generated output is unsettled. In several jurisdictions material generated substantially by AI may attract limited or no copyright protection. We cannot warrant that purely AI-generated elements are protectable or registrable, and we make no promise that they can be enforced against third parties.
• Similarity is possible. Generative models can produce output resembling other output. We do not intentionally imitate any identifiable third-party work, brand or person, and we screen deliverables — but we cannot guarantee that no resemblance exists anywhere in the world.
• Tool terms apply. Deliverables may be produced with third-party platforms whose terms and usage limits pass through to the final work. We will flag any that restrict commercial use, broadcast or resale.
• No factual guarantee. AI-generated visuals are creative interpretations, not documentary records. You are responsible for the accuracy of product depictions, claims, demonstrations and any regulatory disclaimers.
• Your confidential material is not submitted to public model training where we can control it, and we do not licence your material to model providers for training.

Likeness, voice & consent

We will not create synthetic depictions of a real, identifiable person — face, body or voice — without documented written consent from that person or their authorised representative, covering the specific use, media and term.

If you ask us to work from a real person’s likeness, you warrant that you hold that consent and will provide it on request. You are responsible for personality, publicity, moral and performers’ rights in your market. We may refuse or stop any request that appears to impersonate, deceive, defame, or trade on someone’s identity without permission — including political deepfakes, fake endorsements and misleading testimonials — and we may terminate the engagement if such a request is pressed.

Digital influencers and AI characters we originate for you are governed by the ownership terms in clause 06.

Revisions

The SOW states the number of revision rounds. A round means one consolidated set of feedback. New direction, new concepts, new edits after approval, or changes arising from your own approvals process are additional work, quoted before we start. Sign-off on a stage means that stage is closed.

Confidentiality

Each side keeps the other’s non-public information confidential, uses it only for the engagement, and protects it with reasonable care. This survives the engagement by [3] years. It doesn’t cover information that is public, independently developed, or required to be disclosed by law. We may bind collaborators to equivalent obligations rather than name them individually.

Warranties & disclaimers

We warrant that we will perform with reasonable skill and care, in a professional manner, by suitably capable people.

Except as expressly stated, the website, our services and all deliverables are provided “as is” and “as available”. We disclaim all other warranties, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant any commercial result — views, engagement, conversions, sales, rankings or campaign performance — or that deliverables will be error-free or uninterrupted.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither party is liable for indirect, incidental, special, punitive or consequential loss, or for loss of profit, revenue, data, goodwill or business opportunity, however caused. Our total aggregate liability arising out of or in connection with an engagement is limited to the fees actually paid to us for that engagement in the [6] months preceding the claim.

Nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded, including fraud, wilful misconduct, or death or personal injury caused by negligence.

Indemnity

You will indemnify us against claims, damages and reasonable costs arising from: material you supplied; your product claims; your use of deliverables beyond the licence granted; missing consents for a likeness, voice or performance you asked us to use; and your breach of these terms or of applicable advertising law.

We will indemnify you against third-party claims that our original, non-AI-generated contribution to a deliverable infringes their copyright, provided you notify us promptly, let us control the defence, and did not modify the deliverable in a way that caused the claim.

Termination

Either party may terminate on [7] days’ written notice, or immediately for material breach that isn’t cured within [10] days. On termination you pay for all work performed and commitments made up to that date. Advances are not refundable once production has begun. Licences to deliverables only take effect if the relevant fees have been paid; clauses 06, 07, 08, 11, 12, 13, 14 and 18 survive.

This website’s content

Everything on this site — films, stills, posters, copy, layouts, code, the Lazy Lab name and marks — is owned by us or our clients and protected by copyright and trademark law. You may view and share links to it. You may not download, re-upload, re-edit, use as reference for model training, or present our work as your own, and you may not scrape or bulk-download our media library, without written permission.

Client names and logos shown here are the property of their owners and appear to identify work we produced; that isn’t an endorsement of us by them. If you believe something here infringes your rights, email [email protected] with the URL, what you claim is infringed and proof of your rights, and we will review and take down promptly where the claim is made out.

Force majeure

Neither party is in breach for delays caused by events beyond reasonable control — including infrastructure or cloud provider outages, loss of access to a third-party AI platform, changes in a platform’s terms, natural events, strikes, war or government action. We will tell you promptly and agree a revised timeline.

Governing law & disputes

These terms are governed by the laws of India. The parties will first try to resolve any dispute in good faith between senior representatives for 30 days. Failing that, disputes are subject to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts at [city], India, or to arbitration under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act, 1996, seated at [city], before a sole arbitrator, if we both agree in writing.

We are independent contractors — these terms create no partnership, employment or agency. If a provision is unenforceable, the rest stands. Neither party may assign without the other’s consent, except to a successor of its business.
