Responsible use

What these tools are for

Zeoob makes images that look like social media. That is useful for a lesson, a training exercise, a design draft, a research example or a joke that everyone is in on. It stops being useful, and starts being harmful, the moment somebody is meant to believe the image is real.

What we ask of you

• Label it. When a mockup is published or shared outside the room it was made for, say that it is a mockup.
• Do not impersonate. Do not make a post or a message appear to come from a real person or organisation in a way that could be believed.
• Do not harass. Nothing made here should be used to attack, threaten, defame or humiliate anyone.
• Do not defraud. No fake receipts, fake endorsements, fake reviews or anything else designed to extract money or consent.
• Mind the law where you are. Impersonation, defamation and fraud are illegal in most places, and a simulator is no defence.

What we do about it

Every download asks you to confirm you will not use it to deceive or impersonate. Chat downloads carry a faint “Not an original screenshot” watermark, repeated so that a crop keeps at least one copy. Every generated image also carries a hidden origin mark, and the verification tool will read it back from the file as it was downloaded. It is not indelible — resizing an image or re-saving it as a JPEG destroys the mark — so a “no” from the tool is not proof that an image was not made here.

These are deliberate choices, not accidents: a tool that makes convincing fakes should make them traceable.

Reporting misuse

If you have been shown a Zeoob image presented as real, or an image of you has been used in one, write to support@zeoob.com with the image or its link. If it came from here, we can confirm that, and we can remove a shared copy.

We cannot remove a copy somebody has already downloaded and posted elsewhere — nobody can. What we can do is prove where it came from.
