Terms of Service

Last updated: September 6, 2026

1. Subject of the Agreement and Contracting Parties

These Terms of Service govern the use of the Seam Photoshop UXP plugin, the Seam dashboard, and the associated API proxy services (together, "Seam"). Your contracting party for the provision of the software and the service is Emil Rüegg, Bruchstrasse 38, 40235 Düsseldorf, Germany (see our Imprint).

Purchases are a separate matter. Our licenses are sold by Lemon Squeezy LLC as merchant of record, so the purchase contract itself is concluded with Lemon Squeezy and not with us. Section 6 explains what that means for prices, invoices, refunds, and your right of withdrawal.

These terms apply when you create a Seam account, install the plugin, or use a license key. We do not recognize conflicting or supplementary terms of your own unless we have agreed to them in writing.

2. Requirements

Seam is offered to businesses, self-employed people, and consumers who have full legal capacity. You must be at least 18 years old to buy a license. Seam requires your own installation of Adobe Photoshop in a supported version; we do not supply Photoshop, and an Adobe subscription is not part of your Seam plan.

3. Plans, Seats, and Credits

We offer three subscription plans (Starter, Solo, Studio) and one one-time purchase (Lifetime). The current prices, credit allowances, and features of each plan are shown on our pricing page and form part of this agreement.

Seats. Starter, Solo, and Lifetime include one device seat. Studio includes five device seats which may be used in parallel by your team. A seat is bound to an installation; you can release a seat and move it to another device in your dashboard.

Credits. Generations on the subscription plans are settled in credits. How many credits a generation costs depends on the model, the resolution, and the options you choose; the plugin shows the cost before you start a generation. The credits included in a subscription are granted for each billing period and expire at the end of that period; they do not carry over. Additional credit packs you buy separately are added on top, carry over between periods, and do not expire while your account exists. When your credits are used up, generations are refused until the next period begins or you buy a credit pack. Credits have no cash value and cannot be paid out or transferred between accounts.

4. Licensing

We grant you a non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable right to use the software for the term of your plan on the number of devices corresponding to your purchased seats. The software is licensed, not sold; we retain all rights in it.

You may not decompile, disassemble, or otherwise reverse engineer the compiled UXP code, except where and to the extent that mandatory law permits it, in particular § 69d and § 69e of the German Copyright Act (UrhG). You may not remove or alter any notices in the software, and you may not circumvent seat limits, credit allowances, or the device binding of your license.

5. Your Own API Keys (Lifetime License)

The Lifetime license runs on your own AI-provider API keys, which you add in the Seam dashboard. It therefore includes no credits. You are responsible for your accounts with those providers, for any usage fees they charge you directly, and for complying with their terms. We store your keys in encrypted form solely to route your requests to the provider you select, and we do not warrant the availability, pricing, or output of any third-party provider.

6. Prices, Payment, and Right of Withdrawal

All prices shown are gross prices; any applicable VAT is determined and shown by Lemon Squeezy at checkout based on your country. Payment, invoicing, dunning, and refunds are handled by Lemon Squeezy as merchant of record under their own terms and refund policy.

Because Lemon Squeezy is your seller, any statutory right of withdrawal for consumers exists in relation to Lemon Squeezy and is exercised there. Lemon Squeezy provides the applicable withdrawal information at checkout. Please note the statutory rule for digital content: the right of withdrawal can lapse once delivery has begun with your express consent and your acknowledgement that you thereby lose that right. Your statutory rights as a consumer remain unaffected by these terms.

We may change the prices of subscription plans for future billing periods. We will notify you at least 30 days before such a change takes effect, in your dashboard and at the e-mail address associated with your account. If you do not agree, you may cancel your subscription with effect from the date the new price would first apply; if you do not cancel by then, the new price applies.

7. Term, Renewal, and Cancellation

Monthly subscriptions renew each month, annual subscriptions each year, until cancelled. You can cancel at any time in the Lemon Squeezy customer portal; the subscription then remains active until the end of the period already paid for, and no further payment is taken. The Lifetime license is a one-time purchase and is not a subscription.

You can delete your Seam account at any time in your dashboard. Please cancel any active subscription first, otherwise Lemon Squeezy will continue to charge you.

8. Your Content and the Content You Generate

You keep all rights in the images and prompts you submit. You warrant that you hold the necessary rights to them and that submitting them does not infringe third-party rights. We use them only to provide the service, as described in our Privacy Policy.

Commercial usage rights for the images you generate depend on the terms of the AI model provider that produced them. Seam routes each generation to the provider behind the model you select: Google (Gemini and Imagen), OpenAI, or Fal.ai, which hosts the remaining models including FLUX.2, Seedream, Reve, Grok Imagine, background removal, and the upscalers. On all paid plans, these models are made available for commercial use as part of your plan. You remain responsible for complying with the selected provider's content and usage policies. We do not warrant that generated output is unique, that it is free of third-party rights, or that it is eligible for copyright protection in your jurisdiction.

9. Custom Style Models

You may train custom style models from your own images. You are responsible for the training material: you must hold the rights to every image you upload, and where images show identifiable people you must have a legal basis for using them, in particular their consent. Training is performed by our provider Fal.ai, which also hosts the resulting model file. Training consumes credits, which are charged when the training run starts and are refunded if the run fails on our side.

10. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use Seam:

• to generate unlawful content, or content that violates the content policies of the underlying AI providers;
• to generate sexual content involving minors, content that depicts real people in a defamatory or deceptive way, or content designed to deceive about its origin in a way that causes harm;
• to circumvent seat limits, credit allowances, or the device binding of your license;
• to resell, sublicense, rent out, or provide the software or its API proxy services to third parties as a service;
• to place automated, excessive load on our services beyond normal interactive use.

11. Availability and Changes to the Service

We aim for high availability but do not owe a specific uptime. Seam depends on third-party AI providers; their outages, rate limits, price changes, model retirements, and policy changes are outside our control. We may add, change, or retire individual models and features, in particular where a provider discontinues a model. Where a change materially reduces the agreed scope of a paid plan, we will inform you in advance and you may cancel with effect from that date.

Maintenance work may lead to temporary interruptions. Features marked as Beta are provided as they are, may change, and may be removed.

12. Warranty and Liability

The statutory warranty rules apply. Software of this kind cannot be guaranteed to be free of errors in every configuration.

We are liable without limitation for damages arising from injury to life, body, or health, for damages caused intentionally or by gross negligence, in cases of fraudulent concealment of a defect, under a guarantee we have expressly given, and under the German Product Liability Act.

In cases of slight negligence, we are liable only for the breach of an essential contractual obligation, meaning an obligation whose fulfilment makes the proper performance of this agreement possible in the first place and on whose fulfilment you may regularly rely. In that case our liability is limited to the foreseeable damage typical for this type of contract. Any further liability for slight negligence is excluded.

We are not liable for loss of data where the damage would have been avoided by regular, complete backups of your work on your side, and we are not liable for the acts, availability, or output of the third-party AI providers your generations are routed to.

13. Suspension and Termination by Us

We may suspend or terminate your access if you materially breach these terms, in particular section 10, or if a payment is charged back. Where the breach can be remedied, we will normally warn you first and set a reasonable deadline. Our right to terminate for good cause remains unaffected. If we terminate without a breach on your side, we will refund the pro-rata share of any period you have already paid for.

14. Changes to These Terms

We may amend these terms where necessary to reflect changes in the service, in our providers, or in the law. We will notify you of material changes at least 30 days before they take effect, in your dashboard and at the e-mail address associated with your account. If you object before the effective date, we may terminate the agreement with effect from that date; if you do not object, the amended terms apply from that date. We will point this out to you in the notification.

15. Governing Law and Jurisdiction

German law applies, excluding the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. If you are a consumer with your habitual residence in the EU, this choice of law does not deprive you of the protection of the mandatory provisions of the law of your country of residence.

If you are a merchant, a legal entity under public law, or a special fund under public law, the exclusive place of jurisdiction is Düsseldorf, Germany. For consumers, the statutory places of jurisdiction apply. The contract language is English.

We are neither willing nor obliged to take part in dispute resolution proceedings before a consumer arbitration board.

16. Trademarks and Final Provisions

Adobe and Photoshop are trademarks of Adobe Inc. Seam is an independent product and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Adobe. The same applies to the names of the AI models and providers mentioned here, which belong to their respective owners.

Should any provision of these terms be or become invalid, the validity of the remaining provisions is unaffected.
