TERMS OF SERVICE

EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 12, 2026 · REPLACES THE SEPTEMBER 14, 2026 VERSION

These terms are an agreement between you and Sarah Larae Creative, Chattanooga, Tennessee ("The Feed Machine," "we," "us"). By creating an account or using the service you agree to them.

1. WHAT THE SERVICE IS

The Feed Machine turns your photo galleries and footage into a month of social media content: a planned feed, captions, hashtags, a posting calendar, and rendered video Reels. You review and approve the month. Then, if you connect an Instagram account, we publish the approved posts to it on the schedule you set; or you can export the month and post it yourself.

2. YOUR ACCOUNT

You need a valid email address to sign in (we use passwordless sign-in links). Keep access to that inbox secure; anyone with your sign-in link can access your account. You must be at least 18 and using the service for your business.

3. FEES, RENEWAL, AND CANCELLATION

The paid plan is $149 per month, billed monthly through Stripe, and it renews automatically each month until you cancel.New members get the first 30 days free: you add a card when you join, nothing is charged during the trial, and the first charge lands on the day the trial ends. Cancel before then and you are never charged. Founding members keep the $149 price for as long as their subscription stays active. Cancel anytime online from your studio (Account → Billing & plan → Cancel subscription, which opens Stripe's customer portal) or by emailing support@feedthecontentmachine.com; either way, no phone call and no explanation required. Cancelling stops all future charges. You keep access through the period you already paid for; posts scheduled for after that date are removed from the Instagram queue, and anything already published stays on your account. Fees for a billing period already started are not refunded except where the law requires it. We will email you at least 30 days before any change to the price for members whose price is not locked.

4. YOUR PHOTOS STAY YOURS; WHAT YOU LICENSE TO US

You keep all ownership and copyright in everything you upload. You grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to host, copy, process, analyze, transform, and, when you ask us to, publish your uploads solely to provide the service to you (including automated analysis, caption generation, video rendering, and Instagram publishing by the service providers named in our Privacy Policy). That license ends when your content is deleted under our retention policy.

We will not use your photos for any other purpose, including marketing, demos, examples, or AI training, without your explicit written consent. A checkbox buried in settings does not count as consent under this section; it must be a specific, affirmative written agreement.

5. YOUR RESPONSIBILITY FOR CONSENT

Photos you upload usually show your clients and other people. By uploading content, you represent and warrant that: (1) you own the content or hold all rights needed to use it this way; (2) you have obtained every consent, license, and release from your clients and from the people appearing in the content that is required for us to store and process it as described in these terms and the Privacy Policy, including processing by automated systems, and for it to be published on your social media; (3) your contracts with your clients permit this use, including for sensitive work such as boudoir; (4) you will not schedule any image a client or subject has asked you not to publish; and (5) nothing you upload is unlawful, infringing, or uploaded without authorization.

We rely on these warranties. We have no way to verify your client relationships, and we do not contact your clients; obtaining and maintaining their consent is entirely your responsibility.

6. INDEMNIFICATION

You will defend and indemnify Sarah Larae Creative and its owner against any third-party claim, demand, loss, or expense (including reasonable attorney fees) arising from: (a) a breach of your warranties in Section 5, (b) claims by your clients or by people appearing in your uploads relating to consent, publicity, privacy, or copyright, or (c) content published to your accounts through the service or used by you after delivery.

7. RETENTION: WE DELETE OUR COPIES, NOT YOUR PHOTOS

Uploaded content and everything generated from it are automatically deleted 15 days after the last post scheduled from that month (about 45 days after a normal month is delivered). After that, download links stop working. This service is not a backup or archive; your originals remain wherever you keep them, untouched, and posts already published stay on your Instagram. Export anything you want to keep before the window closes. Free preview download links expire after 24 hours.

8. GENERATED CONTENT AND YOUR APPROVAL

Photo selections, feed arrangements, captions, hashtags, and on-screen Reel hooks are drafted by automated language and vision models from your inputs. We show every draft to you before it is posted, and you are responsible for what you post: accuracy of captions, suitability for your audience, compliance with the platforms you post to, and any disclosure rules that apply to you. Automated drafts can contain mistakes, including wrong names, places, or facts; check them before you approve. We claim no rights in the captions and hooks generated for you and assign to you whatever rights we may have in them. We never generate or alter imagery; if you upload imagery that was AI-generated or AI-altered, labeling it as Instagram requires is your responsibility. We do not guarantee engagement, reach, follower growth, or business results.

8A. WHAT EACH MONTHLY CYCLE INCLUDES; REVISIONS

Each monthly cycle includes one built month of content (up to 12 posts and 8 Reels, built from the galleries you send us) and up to two revision rounds. A revision round is one consolidated set of change requests sent to us, or one full rebuild of the month (including a rebuild you run yourself from your studio). Individual photo swaps, feed rearrangements, and caption edits made in your studio are unlimited and do not count as a revision round. Additional full rebuilds beyond two in a cycle are $25 each, billed with your next invoice. Unused revision rounds do not carry over.

9. YOUR INSTAGRAM CONNECTION

Publishing works through Instagram's official API, using a connection you authorize through Facebook Login via our publishing provider, bundle.social. We never see or store your Instagram or Facebook password, and you can disconnect at any time from your studio or by emailing us. You need a professional (business or creator) Instagram account linked to a Facebook Page. By connecting, you instruct us to publish the posts you approve, on the schedule you set, and you confirm that doing so complies with Meta's terms for your account.

Instagram is Meta's platform, not ours. Meta can change or restrict API access, reject a post, remove content, or limit an account at any time and for its own reasons, and posting through any third-party tool carries that risk. We are not responsible for platform actions, for posts that fail to publish because of platform errors, or for how Instagram distributes your content. Music attached to Reels comes only from the library Instagram makes available to your account; if you boost or promote a post, you are responsible for using audio that is cleared for advertising.

10. ACCEPTABLE USE

Do not upload content that is unlawful or that you lack rights to; do not connect an Instagram account you are not authorized to manage; do not train the machine's voice on captions that are not yours; do not probe, overload, or attempt to break the service; do not resell access without a written agreement with us; do not use the service to generate content that violates another platform's rules.

11. COPYRIGHT COMPLAINTS (DMCA)

We respect copyright. If you believe material on the Service infringes your copyright, send a written notice to our designated agent:

Your notice must include the information required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3): your physical or electronic signature; identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed; identification of the material claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient to let us locate it; your contact information; a statement that you have a good faith belief the use is not authorized by the copyright owner, its agent, or the law; and a statement, made under penalty of perjury, that the information in the notice is accurate and that you are authorized to act on behalf of the copyright owner.

Counter-notice. If your material was removed and you believe that was a mistake or misidentification, you may send a counter-notice to the same agent containing the information required by 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3).

Repeat infringers. We terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of members who are repeat infringers.

Our designated agent is also listed in the U.S. Copyright Office's DMCA Designated Agent Directory. This section is also published at /dmca.

12. AVAILABILITY AND CHANGES

The service is provided "as is" and "as available." We are a small company; features may change, and occasional downtime happens. We will give reasonable notice of material changes to these terms by email.

13. LIMITATION OF LIABILITY

To the fullest extent the law allows: we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages, or lost profits or data; and our total liability for any claim is capped at the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim arose (or $100 if you have only used the free preview). Nothing here limits liability that cannot legally be limited.

14. TERMINATION

You can close your account anytime. We may suspend or terminate accounts that breach these terms, with notice where practical. On termination we disconnect your Instagram, remove posts still waiting in the queue, and delete your content per Section 7. Sections 4 through 6, 8, 9, and 13 survive.

15. GOVERNING LAW

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Tennessee. Disputes will be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Hamilton County, Tennessee.
