  1. Added: Subject to your compliance with these Terms, Meta grants you a non-exclusive right to access and use the Services to (i) use Meta Materials; and (ii) develop other software applications, tools or products, and integrations that allow end users of your products or services (" End Users ") to interface with the Services (collectively, such applications, tools, products and integrations, " Integrated Products "). The Services are intended for your commercial use, except where Meta expressly makes the Services available for personal or consumer use, including through a consumer subscription. Meta may make certain Meta Materials available for you to install on your device or systems (" Downloadable Materials "). Subject to the terms, conditions and restrictions in these Terms, Meta grants you a limited, royalty-free, non-exclusive, personal, non-transferable, non-sublicensable (except as otherwise set forth in these Terms), revocable license during the Term to install and use those Downloadable Materials, in each case solely as contemplated by these Terms and the applicable documentation accompanying those Downloadable Materials. You must build your Integrated Products in compliance with applicable laws; you must require your End Users to comply with applicable laws, regulations, and these Terms, and you will not knowingly enable them to violate any of the foregoing; and, without limiting the foregoing, where applicable law requires labeling, disclosure, provenance marking, or classification of AI-generated or AI-assisted content or systems, you are responsible for meeting those requirements with respect to your Actions, Outputs and Integrated Products, including any Outputs provided to End Users through such Integrated Products. Your use of the Services, Outputs, and Integrated Products, including all labeling, disclosure, provenance-preservation, and AI-system classification obligations, is subject to the Model API AUP (defined below), and you are responsible for your End Users' compliance with these Terms, and any obligations under these Terms that apply to you shall also apply to your End Users. The terms and restrictions in these Terms governing your use of Downloadable Materials will apply regardless of how you use them. You acknowledge and agree that any software in the Downloadable Materials is licensed in object code form only, unless we expressly authorize otherwise in writing. You may incorporate Outputs, but not the Downloadable Materials themselves, within Integrated Products in accordance with the terms and restrictions of these Terms. The Downloadable Materials may include third-party software offered under an open source license or third-party content subject to a separate third-party agreement. To the extent any of such third-party terms conflicts with these Terms, such third-party terms will control solely with respect to such third-party software or content. You agree to comply with all such third-party terms. Where Downloadable Materials are made available to and downloaded by you, any reference in these Terms to the "Services" will be deemed to include the Downloadable Materials unless the context requires otherwise. You may request applicable Meta Model documentation by contacting Meta at modeldocumentation@meta.com or through alternative means that Meta may make available. Certain Meta Models may also be made available by Meta under open source or open weight terms or other separate terms. However, your access to and use of any Meta Model through the Meta Model API (including any Outputs therefrom) is governed by these Terms, and no such separate license applies to or confers any rights with respect to your use of the applicable Meta Models via these Services. Conversely, these Terms do not apply to, limit, or terminate any rights you have to use Meta Models outside the Services (e.g., on a self-hosted basis) pursuant to a separate license. No model obtained under a separate license constitutes Downloadable Materials for purposes of these Terms. Meta may also make certain of the Meta Materials available through authorized third-party platforms. If you access the Meta Materials through any such platform, (Hosted Platform Access), which is incorporated into and forms part of these Terms, is applicable to your access and use.
