4. Intellectual Property and Content Ownership
4.1 Framova IP
All content, materials, software, code, designs, and other intellectual property related to the Framova Service ("Framova IP") are the exclusive property of Framova Inc. or its licensors. You retain no rights to Framova IP except as expressly granted in these Terms.
4.2 User-Generated Thumbnails
You retain full intellectual property rights to any thumbnails, designs, or creative works you create using the Framova Service ("User Content"). However:

- If User Content incorporates AI-generated elements (output from fal.ai models), the terms in Section 4.4 apply
- You are responsible for ensuring that User Content does not infringe upon third-party intellectual property rights
4.3 AI-Generated Elements
When you use Framova's AI generation features (powered by fal.ai), you are creating derivatives based on third-party AI models. The intellectual property rights for AI-generated outputs are governed as follows:
- Commercial Use: If your subscription tier permits commercial use, you may use AI-generated thumbnails commercially, subject to the acceptable use policies outlined in Section 7
- Attribution: While not legally required, we recommend attributing the AI models used (e.g., "Generated with Framova / fal.ai") as a best practice
- Model Training: You grant fal.ai the right to use non-sensitive User Content for model improvement, unless you have opted out via your Account settings
- Limitations: You may not use AI-generated content to train competing AI models or to reverse-engineer model weights
4.4 Third-Party Content
Framova may incorporate third-party stock images, fonts, icons, and design assets ("Third-Party Content"). Your rights to Third-Party Content are limited to:
- Personal, non-commercial use only (unless licensed otherwise)

- No redistribution, resale, or use outside the Service
You are solely responsible for complying with the licenses and terms of any Third-Party Content you use.
