Operator Terms of Service

For photographers, photo booth operators, and event professionals

Effective Date: July 8, 2026  |  Version 2.0

These Operator Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of Aura Ecosystem's software products, including Aura Sync and AuraBooth (together, the "Services"). By creating an account, activating a subscription, or using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you are accepting on behalf of a company or organisation, you confirm you have authority to bind that entity.

1. Who These Terms Cover

These Terms apply to operators — the photographers, photo booth operators, and event professionals who subscribe to and deploy the Services at events. If you are an event guest whose photo was taken using AuraBooth or Aura Sync, separate Guest Terms apply and are available at auraboothapp.com/legal/guest-terms.

2. License Grant

Subject to these Terms and your active paid subscription, Aura Ecosystem grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to use the Services for your business operations within the scope of your subscription tier.

You may not:

  • (a) Reverse engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract the underlying AI models or algorithms.
  • (b) Resell, sublicense, or make the Services available to other operators as a platform or white-label product without a separate written agreement with Aura Ecosystem.
  • (c) Use the Services to generate content that is harmful, defamatory, sexually explicit, or illegal.
  • (d) Attempt to circumvent any license validation, device limits, usage metering, or security controls.

3. Subscriptions and Billing

The Services are offered across two products, each with independent pricing and terms:

Aura Sync

  • Event Pass: A one-time payment providing seven (7) days of access on a single active system, starting from activation.
  • Aura Sync Pro: An ongoing monthly subscription with multi-system support and cloud gallery hosting. Billed monthly in advance; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period, and no partial refunds are issued.

AuraBooth

  • AuraBooth is offered on Basic, Pro, and Agency tiers, each with a defined maximum number of connected Windows devices (currently one, three, and five respectively), a monthly AI processing allowance (face swaps and background removals), and feature access (for example, white-labeled guest galleries on Pro and Agency tiers).
  • Device limits are enforced automatically. Once your plan's device limit is reached, additional devices cannot activate until an existing device is deactivated or your plan is upgraded.
  • AuraBooth may also be purchased on an annual basis at a discounted rate. Annual fees are non-refundable once the billing period begins, except where required by law.
  • Current AuraBooth pricing is offered at an Early Access rate during our pre-launch period. Aura Ecosystem reserves the right to increase pricing for new subscribers at public launch. Subscribers who purchase an annual plan are locked in at their purchase rate for the full duration of that paid term, even if pricing increases during that period. Monthly subscribers will be given thirty (30) days' notice before any price increase takes effect, consistent with Section 11.
  • AuraBooth's mobile (iOS/Android) application is under development and not yet available. Any reference to mobile support in our marketing materials describes planned, not current, functionality, and will be updated as mobile access becomes available.

AI render credits are separate from your subscription and are consumed only when AI transformation features are used. Credits are non-refundable once consumed and do not expire within twelve (12) months of purchase.

Aura Ecosystem reserves the right to adjust pricing with thirty (30) days' written notice to active subscribers, except where a locked-in annual rate applies as described above.

4. Your Responsibilities as an Operator

As the operator deploying the Services at events, you are responsible for:

  • (a) Guest consent: Obtaining any consent required by applicable privacy and data protection laws before capturing or processing images of event guests, including minors.
  • (b) Age restrictions: Not using the Services to capture or process images of individuals under the age of 13 without verified parental consent. For events likely to include minors, you must have a clear consent process in place.
  • (c) Accurate representation: Not misrepresenting the nature of AI-generated outputs to guests (e.g., presenting them as unaltered photographs).
  • (d) Lawful use: Complying with all applicable laws in the jurisdictions where you operate, including data protection, privacy, and consumer rights laws.

5. Data and Privacy

Aura Ecosystem processes data on your behalf to deliver the Services. This includes event photos, guest delivery information (where provided), and usage data.

We use third-party AI infrastructure providers, including Fal.ai, to perform image transformation processing (background removal, style transfer, and face swap). These providers process images solely to return the requested output for your event and do not retain or reuse guest images beyond that purpose.

We do not sell your data or your guests' data to third parties. Event photos are stored securely and retained for the period specified in our Privacy Policy.

You act as the data controller for guest images captured at your events. Aura Ecosystem acts as a data processor on your behalf. Where required by applicable law (including GDPR, NDPR, or US state privacy laws), you are responsible for maintaining appropriate records of consent and complying with data subject rights requests.

For operators based in or serving guests in the European Union or UK, a Data Processing Agreement (DPA) is available on request at hello@auraboothapp.com.

6. Intellectual Property

All trademarks, software, AI models, algorithms, and platform infrastructure are the exclusive property of Aura Ecosystem. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of that intellectual property to you.

You retain ownership of the original photos you capture. You also own the final AI-transformed images generated for your guests, subject to these Terms and any applicable third-party model licenses.

You grant Aura Ecosystem a limited, non-exclusive license to process your uploaded images solely for the purpose of delivering the Services to you.

Uploaded Templates and Overlays:

You are solely responsible for ensuring you have the necessary rights to any logos, overlays, branding assets, or custom capture templates (including Diva Mode backgrounds and face-swap style references) you upload to the platform. You may not upload templates based on copyrighted characters, movie or media stills, or the likeness of any real, identifiable individual — including celebrities — without documented permission from the rights holder. Aura Ecosystem may remove any uploaded content that appears to infringe third-party rights and may suspend accounts that repeatedly violate this provision.

7. Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Services to generate, store, or distribute content that:

  • (a) Is sexually explicit or pornographic.
  • (b) Depicts or promotes violence, hate speech, or discrimination.
  • (c) Violates any person's privacy or image rights without consent.
  • (d) Infringes third-party intellectual property rights.
  • (e) Is intended to deceive, defraud, or mislead.
  • (f) Uses copyrighted characters, movie or media stills, or a real person's likeness (including celebrities) as a capture template or style reference without the rights holder's permission.

Aura Ecosystem reserves the right to suspend or terminate access immediately where a breach of this section is suspected, without liability to you.

8. Disclaimer of Warranties ("AS IS")

READ CAREFULLY:

THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE." AURA ECOSYSTEM MAKES NO WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE. AI-GENERATED OUTPUTS ARE ARTISTIC TRANSFORMATIONS AND SHOULD NOT BE RELIED UPON FOR ACCURACY OR IDENTITY VERIFICATION.

9. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, AURA ECOSYSTEM SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, OR CONSEQUENTIAL DAMAGES ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES.

AURA ECOSYSTEM'S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU UNDER THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL SUBSCRIPTION FEES YOU PAID TO AURA ECOSYSTEM IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE CLAIM.

Nothing in these Terms limits liability for fraud, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or any other liability that cannot be excluded by law.

10. Suspension and Termination

Aura Ecosystem may suspend or terminate your account immediately if:

  • (a) You breach any material term of these Terms.
  • (b) Your subscription payment fails and is not resolved within seven (7) days of notice.
  • (c) We reasonably believe your use poses a legal, security, or reputational risk.

You may terminate your subscription at any time through your account settings. Termination does not entitle you to a refund of prepaid subscription fees except where required by law.

Upon termination, your license to use the Services ends immediately. We will retain your data for thirty (30) days after termination before deletion, during which you may request an export.

11. Changes to These Terms

Aura Ecosystem may update these Terms from time to time. Where changes are material, we will give you at least thirty (30) days' notice by email or in-app notification. Continued use of the Services after the effective date of updated Terms constitutes acceptance. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you may cancel your subscription before the effective date.

12. Governing Law and Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, without regard to conflict-of-law principles.

In the event of a dispute, the parties agree to first attempt resolution through good-faith negotiation. If unresolved within thirty (30) days, disputes shall be submitted to binding arbitration under the Arbitration and Conciliation Act (Nigeria), with the seat of arbitration in Lagos, Nigeria.

Nothing prevents either party from seeking emergency injunctive relief from a court of competent jurisdiction where necessary to prevent irreparable harm.
