3.3 AI Training Data

Creator Content
We train AI models using content provided by creators under Creator Licensing Agreements:
•
Videos and audio recordings provided directly by creators
•
Written documents, books, and educational materials
•
Social media content, podcasts, newsletters, and similar public content from creator-provided or creator-authorized URLs, feeds, and accounts
•
Training materials provided through our platform
All creator content is used under express written license. Creators retain ownership of original content and grant Bae-i rights for AI training, format conversion, and derivative works.
User Interaction Data
We do not train AI models on user conversations or interaction data. User interactions are processed on an inference-only basis to deliver responses in real time and to power each user’s personal conversation memory feature. We may use aggregate, non-content operational metrics (such as error rates and latency statistics) to monitor and improve system reliability — these metrics contain no conversation content. If we ever propose to train models on user interaction data, we will update this policy and offer an opt-out before any training begins.
Third-Party and Public Data
•
Publicly available conversational datasets
•
Licensed datasets from data providers
•
Creator-authorized public URLs, feeds, channels, newsletters, and accounts collected using supported integrations, APIs, feeds, or other permitted technical means
•
No bypassing of access controls or unauthorized access to private, restricted, or prohibited sources

3.4 California AB 2013 Compliance

In compliance with California Assembly Bill 2013 (effective January 1, 2026), we disclose:
Training Data Categories
•
Licensed creator content (copyrighted, used under written license agreements, used only for that creator’s dedicated models)

10. CREATOR PAYOUT POLICY

10.1 Revenue Share

Creators receive 70% of Net Revenue from paid interactions with their twins. Free Tokens are provided without a corresponding customer payment. Free Tokens do not generate Gross Revenue or Creator earnings. Net Revenue is Gross Revenue minus itemized Platform Costs, including Voice, Video & Text Services, Monthly Twin Knowledge Maintenance, and any applicable One Time Video Creation Fee. See Creator Licensing Agreement Section 3 for the full definitions.

10.2 Billing Cycle and Payment Schedule

•
Billing follows a shared calendar-month cycle (1st through last day)
•
Payout calculations are performed in the first few business days of the following month
•
Payouts processed by the 5th of the month
•
Minimum payout threshold: $10 USD; below-threshold amounts carry forward
•
Monthly video avatar hosting fees are pro-rated when service is activated or deactivated mid-cycle
•
Monthly Twin Knowledge Maintenance are charged at the full $5 USD monthly amount and are not pro-rated
•
The One Time Video Creation Fee is $50 USD and is charged once when applicable
•
Negative balances offset future Creator earnings only and are never a personal debt, invoice, or charge to Creator

10.3 Payment Methods

•
Payouts processed via third-party payment processors
•
Creator must complete payment setup to receive payouts
•
Bank transfer (ACH for US, wire for international) or other supported methods

10.4 Negative Balances

If Platform Costs exceed revenue in a billing period, the negative balance carries forward and is deducted from future revenue. Bae-i does not separately invoice creators.

10.5 Monthly Statements

Creators receive monthly statements showing revenue, costs by category, net revenue, profit share amount, and payout status, regardless of whether a payout occurs.

10.6 Tax Requirements

Creators are responsible for their own taxes. US creators must provide W-9 information. International creators may be subject to withholding.

12.5 AI Model Limitations

The Technical Reality
AI models learn by identifying statistical patterns across large amounts of data. Once a shared model is trained, it does not contain retrievable copies of the original data. Instead, it contains mathematical weights and parameters that represent learned patterns.
Dedicated Creator Models (Fully Deletable)
Each creator has dedicated AI models including their voice clone, video avatar model, and knowledge base. These models are specific to the individual creator and can be completely deleted upon termination. No “unlearning” limitation applies to dedicated models.
Shared Platform Models (Technical Limitation)
Shared models used for safety, quality scoring, and general platform improvements are trained on aggregate, anonymized data from many users and creators. Current AI technology cannot:
•
Identify which parameters came from which specific data
•
Selectively remove one person’s contribution from a trained shared model
•
“Unlearn” specific information without retraining from scratch
This is an industry-wide technical limitation, not a Bae-i policy choice.
What This Means for You
When you delete your data:
•
We delete all identifiable data from our databases and storage systems
•
We stop using your data for training new AI models
•
Dedicated creator models (if applicable) are fully deleted
•
Shared models trained before your deletion request may continue operating
•
Shared models cannot identify you or reproduce your specific content

12.6 Data Retained for Legal Purposes

Certain data must be retained regardless of deletion requests:
•
Transaction records: 7 years (tax and financial regulations)
•
Legal hold data: Duration of legal proceedings
•
Fraud prevention data: As required for ongoing investigations
•
Regulatory compliance records: As required by applicable law

12.7 Verification

To protect against unauthorized deletion requests, we may require:
•
Verification of account ownership
•
Confirmation of identity
•
For creators: Written notice per Creator Licensing Agreement

12.8 Confirmation

After processing your deletion request, we will send confirmation to your registered email address.

12.9 Questions

For questions about deletion or to submit a deletion request:
