Operated by Fresh Road Studio Inc.
Version 1.0 — Effective November 11, 2026
Welcome to Ganime!
Ganime is a platform where you can discover, watch, create, and share anime stories. Our goal is to make anime more accessible for viewers and make it easier for people to bring their stories to life with AI.
These Terms of Service ("Terms") explain the rules for using Ganime, including your account, purchases, subscriptions, content, and interactions with other users.
Please read them before using Ganime.
By creating an account, accessing, purchasing from, or using Ganime, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, you should not use the Service.
Ganime is operated by Fresh Road Studio Inc. ("Ganime," "we," "us," or "our"), a United States company.
These Terms apply to:
Together, these are called the "Service."
Some features may have additional terms. For example, users who publish or monetize content must also accept the Ganime Creator Agreement.
Our Privacy Policy, Copyright & DMCA Policy, and Content Guidelines also apply where relevant.
Ganime has different age requirements for viewers and creators.
You must be at least 13 years old to register for or use Ganime, and must also meet any higher minimum age required by applicable law.
Users aged 13–17 may access eligible anime viewing and community features, subject to age-based restrictions and safety protections.
If you are under the age of majority where you live, you must have any parental or legal guardian permission required by applicable law to use the Service and make purchases.
You must be at least 18 years old to access Ganime's creator features, including:
Users under 18 may not use these creator features, even with parental or guardian consent.
Ganime is not intended for children under 13.
We do not knowingly permit children under 13 to register for or use the Service. If we learn that an account belongs to an ineligible child, we may disable the account and handle associated information in accordance with our Privacy Policy and applicable law.
Ganime may request age verification and restrict features based on verified or reasonably established age.
You may need to create an account to access certain features.
When registering, you agree to:
You are responsible for activity under your account to the extent permitted by applicable law.
You may not sell, transfer, or share your account in a way that compromises security or violates these Terms.
Ganime may suspend or restrict accounts associated with fraud, abuse, identity misrepresentation, or other serious violations.
We may offer account access through Apple, Google, or other authentication providers. Their separate terms may also apply.
Ganime allows viewers to discover and watch anime published by creators or made available by Ganime.
Some content is free, while other content requires Ganime Credits, a subscription, or another purchase.
Certain episodes, previews, trailers, and other content may be available without additional payment.
You may use Ganime Credits to unlock eligible episodes or series.
Purchasing access gives you a personal, limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license to watch the applicable content through Ganime for your own noncommercial entertainment.
You do not acquire ownership of the anime, characters, videos, music, or underlying intellectual property.
You may not download, copy, redistribute, resell, commercially exhibit, or re-upload content without authorization, except where Ganime expressly permits it or applicable law allows.
Ganime aims to preserve access to purchased episodes and series.
However, we may restrict or remove content when necessary because of copyright complaints, legal requirements, safety concerns, licensing restrictions, technical limitations, or other legitimate reasons.
Where applicable law requires a refund or remedy for unavailable purchased content, Ganime will provide it.
Ganime Credits are digital units that can be used to access eligible content and services within Ganime.
Credits may be purchased, included with a subscription, granted as a promotion, or otherwise provided through an authorized Ganime program.
The amount of Credits you receive may depend on your purchase package, subscription, country, payment channel, and applicable promotion.
Credit pricing may differ between the website and mobile applications because of payment-channel costs and other commercial factors.
The applicable purchase price and Credit quantity will be displayed before you confirm a purchase.
Ganime may provide free or promotional Credits, including welcome bonuses and rewards.
Promotional Credits may be subject to additional restrictions or expiration dates disclosed when offered.
Unless expressly stated otherwise, Promotional Credits do not generate withdrawable Creator Earnings when spent on creator content.
Purchased Credits do not expire merely because time passes, unless an expiration condition is clearly disclosed at purchase and is permitted by applicable law.
Promotional Credits may expire according to the terms disclosed with the promotion.
We may adjust or remove Credits obtained through fraud, error, unauthorized transactions, or abuse.
Credits remaining when an account is closed will be handled in accordance with applicable law and the applicable purchase terms. Account closure does not override any mandatory refund or stored-value rights.
Ganime may offer paid subscriptions, including viewer and creator membership plans.
Subscription features, included Credits, prices, and billing periods will be displayed when you subscribe.
Unless clearly stated otherwise, recurring subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period until canceled.
By purchasing a recurring subscription, you authorize the applicable payment provider to charge the displayed recurring price, including applicable taxes, until cancellation.
You may cancel through the platform where you purchased the subscription or through another cancellation method Ganime makes available.
Canceling stops future renewals. Unless applicable law or the subscription terms provide otherwise, access generally continues through the end of the paid billing period.
Deleting the Ganime app does not automatically cancel an app store subscription.
Credits included with subscriptions may be subject to plan-specific monthly allowances, rollover rules, or expiration terms. These will be disclosed in the applicable subscription offer.
We will not represent that subscription Credits roll over indefinitely unless that benefit is actually provided.
Ganime may change subscription pricing, subject to required advance notice, consent, and applicable app store or payment-provider rules.
Ganime may accept payments through Apple, Google, Stripe, or other supported payment providers.
Payment methods, prices, taxes, and billing terms are displayed before checkout.
You agree to provide valid payment information and authorize the applicable payment provider to process purchases you initiate.
Where permitted by law, digital content and Credits may become available immediately after payment.
Refunds depend on the nature of the purchase, the payment channel, applicable law, and the circumstances.
Digital purchases may be nonrefundable once delivered or used where permitted by law, but nothing in these Terms limits mandatory refund, withdrawal, or consumer-protection rights.
If a payment is refunded, reversed, disputed, or charged back, Ganime may remove the associated Credits or content access, subject to applicable law.
Fraudulent payment activity may result in account restrictions.
Ganime provides AI-powered tools that may help eligible adult creators generate anime stories, characters, images, voices, music, videos, and episodes.
These features may use models and services provided by third parties.
AI-generated content may contain inaccuracies, unexpected results, or similarities to existing works.
Ganime does not guarantee that AI-generated output is unique, exclusive, copyrightable, or free from third-party intellectual-property claims.
Similar prompts may produce similar outputs for different users.
You are responsible for reviewing your AI-generated content before publishing, distributing, or monetizing it.
You must have the necessary rights to use any uploaded reference materials, music, artwork, characters, images, or voices.
You may not use AI creation tools to:
AI models, prices, generation limits, quality settings, and supported features may change.
Some requests may fail, be delayed, or be rejected by our safety systems or third-party providers.
If a paid generation fails because of a verified service error, Ganime will apply the disclosed failed-generation Credit adjustment or refund policy, subject to applicable law. A completed generation does not guarantee that the creative result will meet every subjective expectation.
Users aged 18 or older may apply to use Ganime's creator features, subject to eligibility and verification.
Before publishing, creators must agree to the Ganime Creator Agreement.
That agreement explains:
The Creator Agreement controls where there is a conflict concerning creator-specific earnings, publishing rights, or payout terms.
Viewer Credits and Creator Earnings Credits are different.
Viewer Credits are used to buy Ganime products and services. Eligible Creator Earnings may be withdrawn only under the Creator Agreement and applicable payout requirements.
Ganime does not guarantee that published content will generate revenue, receive views, or be recommended to viewers.
You retain the ownership rights you have in original material that you submit or create.
However, you must have the rights and permissions needed to submit and use that material.
Your content may include stories, scripts, characters, videos, images, prompts, comments, reviews, profile information, and other material.
For published creator content, Ganime receives the licenses described in the Creator Agreement.
For other content you choose to make publicly available through Ganime, such as comments and reviews, you grant Ganime a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free, sublicensable license to host, reproduce, display, distribute, moderate, and use that content as reasonably necessary to operate, provide, and promote the Service.
This license does not transfer ownership of your original material to Ganime.
Private prompts and unpublished drafts are processed as described in our Privacy Policy and the terms applicable to AI creation tools. Public-content licensing does not, by itself, authorize unrelated training of general-purpose AI models using private material.
Ganime's software, website, designs, logos, trademarks, technology, and other materials owned by Ganime or its licensors remain their property.
You receive a limited, personal, revocable, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service as permitted under these Terms.
You may not copy, modify, reverse-engineer, resell, or commercially exploit Ganime's software or proprietary technology except where applicable law permits.
Ganime is intended to support creative storytelling and respectful participation.
You agree not to engage in behavior that harms other users, creators, or the Service.
Prohibited behavior includes:
Ganime may establish additional rules for content ratings, mature themes, violence, community interactions, and other sensitive material.
These rules are described in our Content Guidelines.
You must accept the applicable user policies before creating or uploading user-generated content.
Ganime may review, restrict, or remove content that violates these Terms, the Content Guidelines, or applicable law.
We may use automated detection and human review to identify potential violations.
Moderation actions may include:
Where legally required, we will provide notice, reasons, or appeal options.
Users may report content or behavior that they believe violates our policies through available in-app reporting tools or Ganime Support.
Ganime will review reports and take action as appropriate.
Where Ganime offers interactions between users, users may block abusive accounts through available controls.
Blocking may restrict direct interactions or visibility as described by the applicable feature.
Ganime may modify reporting, moderation, and blocking functionality to improve safety.
Ganime respects the intellectual-property rights of creators, artists, studios, musicians, and other rights holders.
You must not upload or distribute material that infringes another person's copyright.
If you believe content on Ganime infringes your copyright, you may submit a complaint under our Copyright & DMCA Policy.
Our copyright procedures include:
Ganime may remove infringing content and terminate repeat infringers in appropriate circumstances.
A copyright complaint does not automatically entitle a reporting party to ownership of disputed content or Creator Earnings.
Formal DMCA notices must be sent to Ganime's published designated copyright agent.
Your privacy matters to us.
Our Ganime Privacy Policy explains how we collect, use, share, retain, and protect information.
This may include:
Certain information may be processed by third-party providers that support AI generation, hosting, payments, analytics, moderation, and other Service features.
Ganime does not sell personal information or share it for cross-context behavioral advertising, as described in our Privacy Policy.
You can review available privacy choices, request account deletion, or exercise applicable privacy rights using the procedures in that Policy.
You may stop using Ganime at any time and may request account deletion through the available account settings or deletion process.
Ganime may suspend, restrict, or terminate accounts for reasons including:
Where reasonably appropriate, we may issue warnings or provide an opportunity to appeal.
Serious violations may result in immediate action.
Account closure may result in loss of access to subscriptions, purchased content, Credits, and community features, subject to applicable law and disclosed purchase terms.
Eligible Creator Earnings are handled according to the Creator Agreement and applicable legal requirements.
Previously purchased creator content may remain available to viewers as described in the Creator Agreement.
Certain information may be retained for legitimate legal, accounting, security, fraud-prevention, and compliance purposes as described in our Privacy Policy.
Ganime may update, improve, or modify the Service over time.
This may include changing:
We aim to provide a reliable experience, but do not guarantee uninterrupted operation or permanent availability of every feature.
We may suspend or discontinue features when reasonably necessary, subject to applicable law and obligations for paid services.
Where a material change affects an existing paid entitlement, we will provide any required notice, refund, substitute access, or other remedy.
Ganime may integrate with third-party services, including AI providers, app stores, payment processors, hosting services, and authentication providers.
Those providers may have their own terms and privacy policies.
Ganime is not responsible for services operated independently by third parties except where responsibility cannot legally be excluded or where Ganime has expressly accepted it.
Your use of Apple, Google, payment providers, or other integrated services may be subject to additional applicable requirements.
Ganime is provided on an "as available" and "as is" basis, except for guarantees or warranties that cannot legally be excluded.
We do not guarantee:
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, Ganime and Fresh Road Studio Inc. are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, special, or punitive damages arising from use of the Service.
Except for obligations that cannot legally be limited, Ganime's total liability arising from these Terms will not exceed the greater of US$100 or the amount you paid to Ganime during the 12 months before the event giving rise to the claim.
For Creator Earnings disputes, the applicable provisions of the Creator Agreement control.
Nothing in these Terms limits rights or remedies that cannot legally be waived, including applicable consumer-protection rights.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules, except where mandatory laws require otherwise.
If you have a concern or dispute, please contact Ganime Support first. We will try to resolve it fairly.
If a dispute cannot be resolved informally, either party may bring a claim before an appropriate state or federal court in Santa Clara County, California, subject to applicable law and any mandatory jurisdiction or venue rules.
Nothing in these Terms prevents you from exercising rights that cannot legally be waived.
Ganime may update these Terms as the platform develops, laws change, or new features become available.
When we update the Terms, we will post the revised version and update the effective date.
For material changes, we will provide reasonable notice through the Service, email, or another appropriate method.
Where law requires additional notice or consent, we will comply with those requirements.
Your continued use of the Service after updated Terms become effective constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law.
If you do not agree to updated Terms, you should stop using the affected Service and may request account deletion.
Changes will not retroactively eliminate rights or earnings already accrued under prior terms where prohibited by law or the applicable Creator Agreement.
These Terms and the applicable policies or additional agreements incorporated by reference govern your use of Ganime.
If there is a conflict:
If any provision is found invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions will remain effective.
If Ganime does not enforce a provision immediately, that does not mean we permanently waive the right to enforce it.
Ganime may assign these Terms as part of a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or transfer of the Service, subject to applicable law.
You may not transfer your account or contractual rights without our consent, except where applicable law permits or requires otherwise.
If you download Ganime through Apple's App Store or Google Play, the applicable platform rules also apply. These Terms are between you and Fresh Road Studio Inc., not Apple or Google.
Apple and Google are not responsible for providing Ganime's customer support or creator payouts.
Nothing in these Terms limits any rights that applicable law or the relevant platform's mandatory terms provide to you.
