Terms of service

Using the service

You need to be at least 13, and old enough to agree to these terms where you live. If you’re under 18, a parent or guardian must agree for you. The editor needs a free account, and the free tools don’t.

Keep access to your email and sign-in method secure, as you’re responsible for what happens under your account. Tell us if you think someone else has got in.

What you make is yours

You own your games, and everything you put into Decklab. You can print, publish, crowdfund and sell what you make, on any plan, with no royalties to us and no need to credit us.

So that we can run the service, you give us a limited license to store, copy, process and display your content, only as needed to provide it to you. This ends when you delete the content or your account, apart from backups that expire on their own.

You’re responsible for having the rights to what you upload, and for the games you publish.

AI-generated content

As far as we’re able, we assign to you any rights we have in what AI actions produce for you, and you can use it commercially, on any plan.

AI output can be wrong, and may resemble existing work. Other people can receive similar results, and some countries limit copyright in AI-generated material, so you may not be able to stop others using it. Review it before you publish, including for names, trademarks and rules. Where a marketplace or publisher asks you to disclose AI content, that’s for you to do, and exports list the AI art in a project to help.

Stock assets and free tools

The stock library’s icons and images come under their own licenses, such as CC0 and Creative Commons Attribution. You can use them in your games, including commercially, as long as you keep any credit the license asks for. Exports list these credits for you.

Starter kits are yours to build on. Our own name, logos and site artwork aren’t included in any of this, and you need our permission to use them.

Acceptable use

Don’t use the service to:

• Break the law, or infringe someone’s copyright, trademark or other rights
• Make or store sexual content involving minors, or content that threatens, harasses or promotes violence against people
• Use cloud storage for anything other than your projects, or to host files for others
• Get around credit, storage or rate limits, or make multiple accounts to collect free credits
• Probe, overload or disrupt the service, or access accounts that aren’t yours
• Resell the service, or use AI actions in bulk to build a competing product or train a model

Pro’s unlimited cloud projects are subject to fair use under this section.

Reporting content

If you think something on Decklab infringes your rights, write to hello@decklab.ai with what it is, where it is, the rights you hold, and your contact details. We may remove content that breaks these terms, and close the accounts of repeat infringers.

Plans, credits and payment

• The free plan includes the editor, every export and the limits shown on our pricing page.
• Pro renews automatically each month or year until you cancel. If you cancel, it continues until the end of the period you’ve paid for.
• Dodo Payments sells Pro and credit packs as merchant of record, so it’s the seller on your invoice, and its terms also apply to your purchase. It adds any sales tax or VAT at checkout.
• Monthly credits reset every month and don’t roll over. Pack credits last 12 months from purchase. Credits have no cash value, and can’t be transferred.
• If Pro ends, your cloud copies stay readable and downloadable, and they aren’t deleted because a plan ended.
• We’ll give you notice of price changes before they apply to your next renewal.

Refunds

Credits you’ve used can’t be refunded. Our refund policy sets out when you may be eligible and how to ask, and forms part of these terms. It doesn’t limit any right you have under your local consumer law.

The service can change

We keep improving the service, so features can change. We won’t move the local editor, its exports or the free tools behind a paywall. We’ll try to give you reasonable notice before removing anything significant.

Your projects live in your browser unless you sync them, and browsers can lose stored data. Download backups of work that matters.

Ending your use

You can delete your account at any time from your account pages. We may suspend or close an account that seriously or repeatedly breaks these terms, and we’ll tell you why unless we’re legally prevented from doing so. Where we can, we’ll give you a chance to download your work first.

Disclaimers

We provide the service “as is” and “as available”. To the extent the law allows, we disclaim implied warranties, including of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We don’t promise that the service will be uninterrupted, that a game will be balanced or free of rules problems, or that prints will match on every printer, so check a test print before a large run.

Limit of liability

To the extent the law allows, we aren’t liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for lost profits, data or goodwill. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the greater of what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim and US$50.

Nothing in these terms limits liability that can’t be limited by law, or your rights as a consumer under the mandatory law of the country where you live.

General

These terms are governed by the laws of India, and its courts have jurisdiction, though as a consumer you can also rely on the mandatory laws and courts of where you live.

If we change these terms in a significant way, we’ll tell account holders before the change applies. If you keep using the service afterwards, you accept the new terms. If part of these terms can’t be enforced, the rest still applies. You can’t transfer these terms without our agreement, though we can as part of a sale or merger of the business.
