Ownership of Your Content

Your Words Belong to You All original content you create, write, upload, or develop using FinishTheBook.ai — including manuscripts, character notes, outlines, series bibles, and any AI-assisted content generated through your prompts — is and remains your sole intellectual property. FinishTheBook.ai claims no ownership, license, or rights over your creative work.

You grant FinishTheBook.ai a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable license solely to store, display, and process your content for the purpose of providing the service to you. This license is revoked upon termination of your account.

We will never use your manuscripts, writing, or story content to train AI models, share it with third parties, or use it for any purpose beyond operating the Platform for your benefit.

You are responsible for maintaining your own backups of your work. While we implement robust data protection practices, FinishTheBook.ai is not liable for any loss of content due to technical failure, though we will make commercially reasonable efforts to prevent such loss.

Adult & Explicit Content

Age Requirement — 18+ Access to explicit or adult content features on FinishTheBook.ai is strictly restricted to users who are 18 years of age or older. By activating adult content features on a project, you confirm that you are at least 18 years old and that accessing such content is legal in your jurisdiction.

FinishTheBook.ai offers an optional adult content feature designed for authors writing explicit romance, erotic romance, and dark romance fiction. This feature is activated on a per-project basis: you opt in by setting a project's heat level to Spicy or Explicit during project setup or in the project settings. Projects at heat levels Sweet, Warm, or Steamy do not access adult content generation, and adult content remains inactive by default until you choose a heat level that enables it.

By activating adult content features on a project (by selecting Spicy or Explicit heat), you agree to the following:

Zero Tolerance Policy Any attempt to generate content involving minors in sexual or romantic contexts will result in immediate permanent account termination, forfeiture of any subscription fees, and referral to appropriate law enforcement. We actively monitor for violations of this policy.
