terms of service

Welcome to cos.place (“cos.place”, “we”, “us”).

These Terms of Service (“Terms”) govern your access to and use of cos.place during Early Access.

By creating an account, joining the waitlist, or using the platform, you agree to these Terms, our Privacy Policy, and our Copyright Policy.

1. early access

cos.place is currently available in a limited Early Access release. Features, availability, moderation practices, and platform rules may change at any time.

Early Access may contain errors, interruptions, incomplete functionality, or changes without notice. We do not guarantee uninterrupted access during this period.

We may invite, limit, suspend, or remove Early Access participants at our discretion.

2. eligibility and accounts

You must be at least 15 years old to use cos.place. If you are a minor in your jurisdiction, you may need permission from a parent or legal guardian.

You are responsible for:

  • Keeping your login credentials secure.
  • All activity that occurs through your account.
  • Providing accurate registration information.
  • Not creating multiple accounts to evade enforcement actions.

You may not sell, transfer, share, or rent your account.

3. your content

“User Content” means photos, videos, text, costumes, profiles, comments, links, and other materials you upload or submit to cos.place.

  • You retain ownership of your original User Content.
  • By posting User Content, you grant cos.place a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, display, distribute, adapt, and promote your User Content solely for the purpose of operating, improving, securing, and promoting the platform.
  • This license exists only while your content remains on cos.place. If you delete content, we will remove it from active display, subject to technical limitations and legal retention requirements.
  • You confirm that you have all necessary rights, permissions, licenses, and releases for any User Content you upload.

4. prohibited content

You may not upload, post, share, link to, or promote content that:

  • Is not yours or that you do not have permission to post.
  • Reposts, re-uploads, or redistributes another person’s cosplay photos, videos, artwork, edits, or other creative work.
  • Contains real graphic violence, gore, mutilation, death, or extreme bodily harm.
  • Depicts, promotes, or sexualizes minors.
  • Contains illegal content, hate speech, harassment, threats, doxxing, or targeted abuse.
  • Contains non-consensual intimate imagery, revenge porn, or sexual content involving real people without their explicit consent.
  • Contains malware, scams, phishing, fraud, or attempts to compromise the platform or its users.
  • Impersonates another person, creator, brand, or cos.place staff member.
  • Contains AI-generated or AI-assisted imagery, video, audio, or other media. See Section 6.

5. suggestive and nsfw content

Cosplay can include mature themes, but cos.place is not an adult-content platform.

Suggestive or NSFW content may only be posted if:

  • It is clearly and accurately labeled as Suggestive or NSFW using the platform’s content-warning tools.
  • It does not contain explicit sexual acts, genital nudity, or pornographic material.
  • It does not involve minors, real gore, non-consensual scenarios, or illegal activity.
  • It complies with all applicable laws and platform guidelines.

We may remove, restrict, age-gate, or hide content that is improperly labeled or violates these rules.

6. no ai-generated content

cos.place is a platform for real cosplay, real creators, and real community work.

You may not upload, post, or submit AI-generated or AI-assisted content, including:

  • AI-generated cosplay images.
  • AI-generated characters, faces, bodies, costumes, or backgrounds.
  • AI-edited photos or videos.
  • AI-generated voice, music, or video content.
  • Content created using prompts, generators, or AI tools that imitate another creator’s work.

Any attempt to upload AI content may result in immediate removal of the content and an IP ban. Repeat attempts, evasion attempts, or use of alternate accounts may result in permanent exclusion from cos.place.

We may use manual review, automated detection, user reports, and other reasonable methods to enforce this rule.

7. copyright and creator rights

You may only post content that you created or have explicit permission to post.

Do not repost images, videos, edits, artwork, or other content created by another person without their direct permission.

If you believe content on cos.place infringes your rights, submit a report to contact@cos.place with:

  • Your name and contact information.
  • A link to the allegedly infringing content.
  • A description of the original work.
  • Proof that you own or are authorized to act for the rights holder.
  • A statement of good-faith belief that the use is unauthorized.

We may remove content, issue warnings, suspend accounts, or impose IP bans where appropriate.

8. moderation and enforcement

We may review, remove, restrict, or hide content that violates these Terms.

Enforcement actions may include:

  • Content removal.
  • Content warning or label correction.
  • Account warning.
  • Temporary suspension.
  • Permanent account termination.
  • IP ban.
  • Reporting illegal activity to relevant authorities.

We may act immediately, without prior warning, where content involves AI uploads, real gore, illegal material, child safety risks, harassment, or serious copyright infringement.

If your content or account is actioned, you may contact contact@cos.place to request review. We do not guarantee reversal of a moderation decision.

9. termination

We may suspend or terminate your access at any time if you violate these Terms, create risk for the platform or community, or abuse Early Access.

You may stop using cos.place at any time. You may request account deletion by contacting contact@cos.place.

10. disclaimers

The platform is provided “as is” and “as available” during Early Access.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, cos.place is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, loss of data, loss of profits, or loss arising from use of the platform.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability that cannot legally be limited.

11. changes

We may update these Terms as cos.place develops. Material changes will be communicated through the platform, email, or another reasonable method.

Continued use after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

12. governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Republic of Poland, without prejudice to mandatory consumer-protection rights in your country of residence.
