Acceptable use policy
Offpeak processes files you already have: it upscales images, removes backgrounds and transcribes audio. These rules apply to everything you upload, everything you produce, and any product you build on the service. If you are unsure, don't send it.
Children
Zero tolerance. You must not use the service for any of the following:
- Child sexual abuse material, in any form, whether real, altered or synthetic.
- Sexualising, exploiting or harming anyone under 18.
- Grooming or sextortion, or any material that supports them.
- Distributing obscene or otherwise illegal material to minors.
We report apparent child sexual abuse material to the authorities and preserve what the law requires. For counsel: the reporting body and duty for our jurisdiction, and whether scanning or hash matching is required or advisable. The service does not scan content today.
Non-consensual intimate imagery

- No preparing or improving source material for a deepfake of a real person made without their consent.
- No identity theft, and no posing as a person or organisation you aren't.
- No passing off altered images or transcripts as authentic evidence or records.
