Terms of Service

Last updated: 15 July 2026

These Terms of Service (the "Terms") govern your use of the LATENT platform (the "Platform", the "Service"). By registering for or using the Platform you are deemed to accept these Terms.

1. Creating an Account

To use the Platform you must create an account with accurate and current information. You are responsible for the confidentiality of your account details and for all activity that takes place under your account. The Platform is not intended for individuals under the age of 13; using paid subscription or payment features requires that you are at least 18 years old, or that you have the consent of a parent or legal guardian.

2. Description of the Service

LATENT is a platform for uploading and watching AI-generated short films and series. Core viewing and discovery features are free. The Platform may offer optional paid subscription plans, revenue sharing for creators, and, at a later stage, advertising-based revenue models; the scope, pricing and terms of these features may be updated from time to time and will be announced on the Platform when the relevant feature is enabled.

3. Uploading Content and Intellectual Property

You declare that you own the copyright to the content you upload (video, images, text) or that you have permission to use it. This declaration also applies to content generated using AI tools. You confirm that your use of those tools complies with their own terms of service and that the resulting content does not infringe the intellectual property rights of third parties.
Videos containing hate speech, harassment, violence, obscene content or unlawful material are prohibited and will be removed.
LATENT reserves the right to review, reject or remove any content without prior notice.
By uploading content, you grant LATENT a non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free licence to host, stream, generate thumbnails from, and use the content for promotional purposes (e.g. homepage banners, social media) on the Platform. You retain ownership of and copyright to your content; this licence exists solely so that the Platform can provide the Service and ends when you delete the content or your account (except where we are legally required to retain it).

4. Copyright Infringement Notice and Takedown Policy

If you believe that content on the Platform infringes your copyright, you may send a notice to info@thelatentworld.com including the following information:

A description of the copyrighted work you believe has been infringed, and a link to or evidence of the original where available.
The exact URL of the content on the Platform that you believe infringes your rights.
Your contact details and a statement made in good faith that the notice is accurate.
Upon a valid notice, the content is reviewed and, where appropriate, removed; the uploader is given the opportunity to respond. Accounts with repeated, verified infringements may be permanently terminated.

5. User Conduct

You are expected to treat other users with respect. Harassment, spam, fraud or behaviour intended to manipulate the platform (e.g. fake likes/follows, fraudulent payment or chargeback claims) may lead to suspension of your account.

6. Reports and Moderation

You can report content you find inappropriate using the "Report" feature. Our team reviews reports and may take the action it deems necessary (warning, content removal, account suspension).

7. Subscriptions and Payments

LATENT may offer users the option to purchase a paid subscription. This section applies once that feature is enabled.

Subscription prices are shown clearly on the Platform at the time of purchase and are charged through a licensed payment service provider in your chosen currency/payment method.
Your card or other payment details are NOT stored on LATENT's servers; payments are processed directly by a licensed, PCI-DSS compliant payment service provider.
Unless clearly stated otherwise, subscriptions renew automatically. You may cancel your subscription at any time from the Settings page or by contacting info@thelatentworld.com; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period.
Pricing may change from time to time; existing subscribers will be notified of price changes at least 30 days in advance.

8. Creator Revenue Share

Once the subscription feature is enabled, revenue collected from optional viewer subscriptions is shared as follows:

80% of the applicable revenue goes to the creator who uploaded the content.
20% is retained by LATENT to cover platform operation, hosting, payment processing and development costs.
The share attributable to each piece of content is calculated by LATENT based on its view/engagement share of the relevant collection period. Details of the calculation method and payout schedule are at LATENT's discretion and may be shared through the creator dashboard where appropriate.
Payouts are made at regular intervals once a minimum payout threshold is reached and your identity/tax information has been verified. You are responsible for reporting and paying any taxes owed on your earnings; LATENT may withhold tax or share information where required by applicable law.
LATENT reserves the right to suspend or reclaim payouts where abuse, fraudulent engagement, or a violation of these Terms is detected.

9. Advertising and Ad Revenue

LATENT may, at a later stage, display advertising on the Platform. Revenue that may be generated from advertising may be shared with the creators whose content generated it, based on per-video view/engagement data. The scope, rates and implementation terms of this model are at LATENT's discretion and may be updated as needed. For information about data collection and cookies related to advertising, see the "Cookies and Tracking Technologies" section of the Privacy Policy.

10. Cancellation and Refund Policy

All subscription payments are final and non-refundable except where required by applicable law. Subscription cancellations take effect at the end of the current billing period; no partial refund is given for unused time. If you believe you were charged in error due to a technical fault, you may contact us at info@thelatentworld.com; such requests are evaluated at LATENT's sole discretion and a refund is not guaranteed. Any mandatory refund rights you may have under applicable consumer protection law remain unaffected.

11. Account Suspension and Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account without prior notice if these Terms are violated, fraud is suspected, or unlawful activity is detected. You may permanently delete your account at any time from the Settings page; this action cannot be undone and does not necessarily affect any outstanding subscription or payment obligations.

12. Limitation of Liability

The Platform is provided "as is". LATENT is not responsible for the accuracy, safety or legality of content uploaded by users. Any amount of revenue that may be earned through subscription or advertising revenue sharing is not guaranteed and will vary based on views, engagement and platform-wide revenue volume. To the maximum extent permitted by law, LATENT shall not be liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages.

13. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Türkiye. Disputes arising from these Terms are subject to the jurisdiction of the courts and enforcement offices of the Republic of Türkiye, as determined under the general jurisdiction rules of applicable law. latentworld.tv may in the future operate under a formally incorporated company; in that case, the competent court will be updated to reflect that company's registered address. Because the Platform is available to users around the world, this section does not limit or remove any mandatory rights you may have under the consumer protection law of your own country of residence that cannot be waived by contract. Mandatory rights available to users who qualify as consumers under Law No. 6502 on the Protection of Consumers also remain reserved.

14. Changes

These Terms may be updated from time to time. Users will be informed of significant changes. Your continued use of the Platform means you accept the updated Terms.
