Content License Agreement

Version v2.1 · Effective 2026-09-14

This Content License Agreement ("Agreement") is between Project July, a sole proprietorship ("we," "us," or "ToonCat"), and you, a Creator. It sets out the scope and conditions of the rights you grant us over the Content you register on the ToonCat Service (the "Services").

1. Purpose

This Agreement sets out the scope and conditions of the rights we may exercise over the Content you register on the Services.

2. Your Content Is Yours

  1. You retain full ownership of your Content. The copyright in your Content — both the economic rights and the moral rights — stays with you.
  2. We may use your Content only within the scope of the license you grant under this Agreement. Nothing in this Agreement is to be construed as a transfer of your copyright.

3. Scope of the License You Grant Us

You grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free license to:

  1. reproduce, store, transmit, and make the technical conversions of your Content that are necessary to provide the Services (such as image resizing and format conversion);
  2. perform the AI translation and typesetting described in Section 4 of this Agreement; and
  3. review the Output internally to improve the quality of the Services (we do not make it public, and we do not use it to train AI models).

4. AI Translation and Typesetting

  1. We provide a service that translates and typesets your Content using AI technology.
  2. The plans, usage limits, cancellation, and refunds for AI translation are governed by the [Terms of Service] and the Price List.
  3. We claim no rights in Translations or other Output; where rights arise in the Output, those rights belong to you.
  4. We use the paid tier of the Google Cloud Gemini API for AI translation; under those terms, your Content is not used to train Google's AI models.
  5. If we change our AI-translation provider, we will choose one with data-protection conditions at least as strong as the current provider's, and we will give you advance notice of material changes.

5. Derivative Works (Separate Agreement)

  1. This Agreement does not assign or delegate to us your right to create derivative works (Article 22 of the Korean Copyright Act).
  2. If we want to commercialize your Content as a derivative work — such as film, publishing, games, or merchandise — we must enter into a separate written agreement with you.
  3. Any arrangement that violates this Section is void.

6. Your Warranties

  1. You warrant that:
    1. your Content is your own work, or a work for which you hold legitimate rights; and
    2. your Content does not infringe any third-party rights, including copyright, trademark, likeness, right of publicity, or reputation.
  2. If we or a third party suffer damage because you breach these warranties, you are liable for that damage.

7. Term and Termination

This Agreement is effective from the time you agree to it until one of the following occurs:

  1. you withdraw your membership;
  2. we terminate the Services; or
  3. both parties agree to end it.

8. Handling of Content on Withdrawal

When you withdraw your membership, your personal information and Content are handled under Section 22 of the [Terms of Service].

9. Changes and Termination Notices

  1. If we materially change this Agreement, we will notify you within the Services and at your registered email at least 30 days before it takes effect.
  2. If we terminate the Services themselves, Section 6.3 of the [Terms of Service] applies.

Governing Language

This Agreement is written in Korean and translated into other languages for convenience. The Korean-language version is the official and governing version. If there is any conflict or difference in interpretation, the Korean version prevails. The Korean original is available at /legal/license.

Addendum

  1. This Agreement (v2.0) takes effect on 2026-09-11; the amended Agreement (v2.1) takes effect on 2026-09-14.
  2. Creators who accepted this Agreement before the amendment takes effect will be asked to accept the amended Agreement the first time they log in to the Services afterward.
  3. Amendment of 2026-09-14 (v2.1): a new item was added to Section 3 covering our internal review of Output for the purpose of improving the quality of the Services.
