Terms of Use

The AIAPS specification is published as a public technical specification describing methods for signaling and verifying audio recordings designated as not authorized for AI training.

The information provided on this website is for informational and technical purposes only.

AIAPS does not provide legal advice, legal opinions, or legal representation.

AIAPS provides signaling and verification mechanisms, including metadata notices, embedded protection signals, fingerprints, and registry records.

AIAPS does not prevent access to audio, enforce usage restrictions, or guarantee that AI systems, platforms, distributors, or third parties will comply with protection notices, policy declarations, or registry records.

Enforcement of rights related to recordings remains the responsibility of the rights holder.

The AIAPS registry stores identifiers and associated metadata for recordings processed through the AIAPS workflow.

Registry entries are intended to provide evidence that a recording was registered under the AIAPS system at a specific time.

AIAPS does not independently adjudicate ownership, authorship, or rights disputes concerning recordings submitted for registration.

Registry records reflect information submitted through the AIAPS workflow and are not a substitute for copyright registration, legal title review, or judicial determination.

The AIAPS specification is publicly available for reference.

The AIAPS Plugin, AIAPS registry, and AIAPS verification tools provide the current implementation and verification system for the standard.

Publication of the specification does not require AIAPS to support third-party implementations, third-party registries, or third-party verification services.

AIAPS may modify, suspend, discontinue, or restrict access to the website, registry, verification tools, or related services at any time.

Users are responsible for maintaining their own records, exports, certificates, and documentation relating to recordings processed through the AIAPS system.
