AI Likeness Consent Agreement
Last updated: October 2026 · Version 1.0
This is the agreement we ask clients and the people shown in AI Avatars or Digital Twins to sign before any work on a likeness begins. A signed copy (with your name, date, initials and signature) is prepared for each client; ask us at bonjou@emadigitalstudio.com.
1. Parties and definitions
"Studio" means EMA Digital, a business name of Amanda Collection LLC. "Client" is the business or person who hires the Studio. "Subject" is the real person whose face and/or voice is used; if the Subject is not the Client, the Subject signs too. "Likeness" means the Subject's face, appearance, body and, only if selected below, voice. "Twin" is an AI version of a real Subject's Likeness. "Brand Avatar" is an AI character created for the Client that is not based on a real person. "Source Material" is the photos, video, audio and scripts provided. "Content" means photos and videos the Studio makes for the Client using a Twin or Brand Avatar.
2. What the Studio creates
The Studio creates a Twin or a Brand Avatar and uses it to produce Content for the Client under the Client's order. The Studio uses third-party AI tools to do this (section 9).
3. Consent choices
Face and voice are agreed separately and in writing. The Subject initials each box they accept. Nothing is assumed.
- FACE: I consent to the creation and use of an AI likeness of my face and appearance.
- VOICE: I consent to the use of my voice in Content, in the way(s) I select: (a) an AI voice clone of my own voice, where I personally complete the voice verification the tool requires and the Studio may not clone my voice for me; (b) my own recorded voice-overs; (c) a Studio voice talent's voice (not my voice); (d) an AI library voice not based on any real person.
- LANGUAGES: English, French, and Haitian Creole (recorded voice-over only).
The Subject may accept face without voice, or voice without face.
4. Permitted use
Content may be used only to promote the Client's own business, on the channels listed in the order (for example Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, YouTube, the Client's website, paid ads and email), worldwide, for as long as the Client uses the Studio's services plus 12 months for Content already published. Any other use needs the Subject's new written permission.
5. Prohibited use
Neither the Studio nor the Client will use the Likeness or a Twin to: impersonate the Subject or mislead people about who is speaking (beyond the label rules in section 12); create political, adult, hateful, defamatory, illegal or deceptive content, including fake testimonials or fake medical, financial or legal claims; make statements the Subject has not approved; serve any other client, or sell, license or give the Twin to anyone; or train or fine-tune public AI models or datasets with the Likeness or Source Material, other than the technical processing by the tools described in section 9.
6. Brand Avatars are not real people
A Brand Avatar is a fictional character. It will not be created to look or sound like an identifiable real person or celebrity. If anyone reasonably complains that it resembles them, the Studio will adjust or retire the character.
7. Source Material and promises
The Client and the Subject confirm that the Subject is at least 18 years old (the Studio does not create Twins of minors); that the Subject has the right to give this consent; that all Source Material is theirs, with no other person's face, voice, music or protected content in it unless that person agreed in writing; and that any voice used is the Subject's own.
8. Storage, access and retention
The Studio stores Source Material and the Twin in a private library, accessible only to team members who work on the Client's projects. Source Material and working files are kept for 12 months after the last project and then deleted, unless the Client asks in writing to keep them longer. The Studio keeps only the signed forms and a minimal record of consent as proof. The Studio uses reasonable measures to protect files, but no storage is completely secure.
9. Third-party tools
The Studio uses third-party AI tools (for example HeyGen, Higgsfield, ElevenLabs and Google AI tools; the list can change) to create, animate and voice the Likeness. The Likeness and Source Material are processed by those tools under their own terms. The Studio chooses settings and plans that, where available, keep material private and out of public model training, and will tell the Client if a tool's terms change in a way that affects the Client.
10. Ownership and exclusivity
The Client may use the finished Content under this agreement. The Studio keeps its working files, templates and methods, and may keep Twin or Avatar files in the Client's private library only to serve the Client. A Brand Avatar is exclusive to the Client's brand. A Twin is never used for anyone else. The Studio may show the Twin or Content in its portfolio only if the Subject ticks "Portfolio use allowed" in the signed copy.
11. Approvals, scripts and revisions
Before wide use, the Client approves a test sample. Each service includes 2 rounds of revisions. A script written by the Studio is approved in writing before any voice is recorded or generated. A script provided by the Client is the Client's responsibility. If the words change after recording, the voice-over is redone at the voice-over price in the order. The Studio may refuse a script or claim that appears unlawful, misleading or contrary to section 5.
12. AI labels and disclosure
Some platforms and places require AI-made or AI-edited content to be labeled. The Studio will tell the Client which label settings apply and, if the Client asks, add an on-screen "AI-generated" label. The Client is responsible for turning on required labels when posting and following each platform's rules and the law. The Studio will not remove AI-provenance marks that tools add.
13. Withdrawing consent
The Subject (or the Client, where the Client controls the account) may withdraw consent at any time by emailing bonjou@emadigitalstudio.com. After notice: within 5 business days the Studio stops producing new Content with the Twin and stops any portfolio use; within 30 days the Studio deletes the Source Material, the Twin and working files, except the signed forms and a minimal record of the request; for Content already published, the Client removes it from the Client's own channels and ads within 10 business days of the Studio's notice, and the Studio helps with a list of delivered Content and takedown wording on request. The Studio cannot control copies other people already saved or shared. Fees for work already done remain due.
14. Death or incapacity
After the Studio learns of the Subject's death or incapacity, the Twin will not be used to produce new Content unless a legal representative gives written permission.
15. Fees
Fees are in the Client's order. Consent and withdrawal of consent do not depend on payment status, but fees for work already done remain due.
16. Responsibility
Each party is responsible for its own acts. The Client is responsible for scripts, claims and any use outside this agreement. The Studio is responsible for using the Likeness only as agreed and protecting files with reasonable care. To the extent the law allows, neither party is liable for indirect or consequential losses, and the Studio's total liability under this agreement is limited to the fees paid for the related project, except where the law does not allow this limit.
17. Governing law and disputes
This agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Florida, United States, without regard to its conflict-of-laws rules. Please email us first so we can try to resolve any disagreement in good faith for 30 days.
18. General
Changes must be in writing and signed (a signed change confirmed by email is acceptable). If part of this agreement is invalid, the rest stays valid. The English version controls; a Haitian Creole translation, if given, is for convenience.
Signatures
(on the signed copy): Client, Subject (if different), Studio: name, date, signature, initials for each consent box, and the Portfolio use choice.
