Content Submission, Likeness Release, and Indemnity Terms

1. Definitions

• “Claru” means Reka AI Inc. d/b/a Claru AI.
• “Covered Parties” means Claru and its current and future parents, subsidiaries, affiliates, customers, clients, vendors, contractors, service providers, licensees, sublicensees, strategic partners, acquirers, successors, assigns, distributors, resellers, data recipients, model recipients, and other downstream recipients or users of any submitted content, derivative data, dataset, model, output, or related product or service.
• “Submitted Content” means any image, photograph, video, video clip, video frame, audio recording, text, document, metadata, caption, tag, label, annotation, submission data, or any other material you upload, record, or provide through the platform.
• “Identifiable Individual” means any person who is identifiable or reasonably capable of being identified, directly or indirectly, from Submitted Content alone or in combination with other data, context, metadata, or tools.

2. Absolute Responsibility for Rights and Consents

You represent, warrant, and covenant that, before uploading any Submitted Content, you obtained, and will continue to maintain, all rights, licenses, permissions, notices, waivers, and consents necessary for the full exercise of the rights contemplated by these terms by all Covered Parties.

This includes:

• all rights in and to the Submitted Content itself, including from the creator, photographer, videographer, recording artist, copyright owner, or other rights holder;
• valid, enforceable, legally sufficient consent from every Identifiable Individual appearing in the Submitted Content;
• where applicable, valid consent from a parent or legal guardian for every minor;
• any permissions required under applicable privacy, publicity, portrait, employment, labor, data protection, biometric, or other applicable laws.

You may not upload any Submitted Content containing even one Identifiable Individual unless you have secured all such rights and consents for that individual.

3. Scope of Consent You Confirm Has Been Obtained

You represent, warrant, and covenant that each required consent you obtained authorizes Claru and all Covered Parties, on a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free basis, to use the Submitted Content and the name, image, likeness, appearance, face, body, voice, movements, persona, biographical details, and other identifying characteristics of each Identifiable Individual for any lawful purpose, including:

• ingestion, storage, hosting, copying, review, and processing;
• annotation, labeling, classification, moderation, filtering, evaluation, and quality assurance;
• creation, curation, enrichment, combination, modification, transformation, and distribution of datasets and derivative datasets;
• research, development, testing, validation, benchmarking, training, retraining, fine-tuning, evaluation, and improvement of artificial intelligence, machine learning, multimodal, computer vision, generative, recognition, and related systems;
• internal business operations, analytics, safety, trust and safety, fraud prevention, auditing, and security;
• commercialization, licensing, sublicensing, sale, transfer, sharing, provision, and other exploitation of Submitted Content, derived data, datasets, labels, annotations, embeddings, model inputs, model weights, model outputs, and related products and services;
• advertising, promotion, marketing, demonstrations, case studies, investor materials, and public-facing or non-public-facing business use.

4. Group Content and Third Parties

For any Submitted Content containing multiple persons, you expressly represent, warrant, and covenant that you obtained the required rights and consents from each and every Identifiable Individual appearing in the Submitted Content, not merely from the primary subject, the person who supplied or recorded the content, or the account holder.

You acknowledge that group scenes, background persons, partially visible persons, bystanders, overheard voices, and other third parties may still qualify as Identifiable Individuals, and you assume full responsibility for determining whether consent is required and obtaining it.

5. Evidence and Record Retention

You will maintain complete, accurate, and auditable records sufficient to prove the rights and consents required by these terms for at least seven (7) years after your last upload of Submitted Content, or longer if required by law or requested by Claru in writing in connection with a dispute, audit, claim, or investigation.

Upon request, you will immediately provide Claru with copies of releases, consent forms, guardian approvals, chain-of-title documentation, and any other evidence Claru requests. Failure to provide satisfactory evidence upon request will constitute a material breach.

6. No Reliance by You; Full Reliance by Claru

You acknowledge and agree that:

• Claru is entitled to rely fully on your representations, warranties, and covenants without independently verifying them;
• Claru has no obligation to review, investigate, authenticate, or validate your rights or consents;
• all risk arising from any failure to obtain sufficient rights or consents rests solely with you.

7. Rights Granted

You hereby grant, and represent that the required rights and consents you obtained authorize, Claru and all Covered Parties to host, copy, store, reproduce, display, perform, distribute, transmit, publish, modify, crop, edit, adapt, translate, annotate, label, combine, extract information from, create derivative works from, commercialize, license, sublicense, transfer, assign, sell, resell, disclose, share, and otherwise use the Submitted Content and the likeness and identifying characteristics of each Identifiable Individual for any lawful purpose, in any media, channel, or format now known or later developed.

8. Waiver of Claims; No Approval or Compensation Rights

You represent that the permissions you obtained are sufficient, to the maximum extent permitted by law, to waive and release any claim by any Identifiable Individual against any Covered Party arising out of or relating to the authorized use of Submitted Content or likeness rights, including claims based on:

• rights of publicity, privacy, likeness, portrait, personality, or image;
• biometric privacy or similar theories;
• defamation, false light, emotional distress, reputational harm, or false endorsement;
• copyright, neighboring rights, moral rights, attribution, approval, inspection, or withdrawal rights;
• royalties, fees, residuals, profit participation, or additional compensation.

You further represent that no Identifiable Individual has any approval, inspection, deletion, revocation, or compensation right inconsistent with the rights granted under these terms, except to the extent such rights cannot legally be waived.

9. No Obligation to Delete or Recall

You acknowledge and agree that Submitted Content may be incorporated into datasets, derivative datasets, labels, annotations, model inputs, trained systems, outputs, commercial products, and downstream licensed materials, and may be shared with Covered Parties on a global basis. As a result, once Submitted Content has been uploaded or used, it may be technically or commercially impracticable or impossible to retrieve, delete, reverse, segregate, or cease all downstream uses.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither Claru nor any Covered Party will have any obligation to delete, recall, unwind, or discontinue use of Submitted Content or derived materials except as expressly required by applicable law and only to the extent legally required.

10. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Covered Parties from and against any and all claims, complaints, demands, actions, suits, arbitrations, investigations, proceedings, liabilities, damages, losses, judgments, settlements, penalties, fines, costs, and expenses, including attorneys' fees and expert fees, arising out of or relating to:

• any actual or alleged failure by you to obtain rights, permissions, releases, notices, waivers, or consents required by these terms;
• any actual or alleged claim by any person appearing in Submitted Content, or by any parent, guardian, creator, photographer, videographer, copyright owner, employer, agency, or representative of such person;
• any claim involving privacy, publicity, likeness, portrait, biometric privacy, copyright, moral rights, unfair competition, false endorsement, negligence, consumer protection, or similar legal theories;
• any claim arising from the storage, processing, annotation, labeling, training, evaluation, use, licensing, sublicensing, transfer, commercialization, or other exploitation of Submitted Content or derivative materials by any Covered Party;
• your breach of these terms.

This indemnity is intended to protect not only Claru but also all Covered Parties as express third-party beneficiaries, each of whom may enforce this provision directly.

11. Survival; Irrevocability

Your representations, warranties, covenants, releases, and indemnification obligations are continuing, irrevocable, and survive indefinitely, including after account termination, cessation of services, content removal, or expiration of any other agreement with Claru.

12. Priority and Incorporation

These terms are incorporated into the platform terms, contributor terms, annotator agreement, services agreement, and any statement of work or submission requirements applicable to you. In the event of any inconsistency, the interpretation most favorable to Claru and the Covered Parties shall apply to the maximum extent permitted by law.
