Acceptable Use Policy
Effective date: __ EFFECTIVE_DATE __
You can design and order almost anything on Cloud Forge. Here's the short list of what we do not manufacture, and what we do when designs cross those lines.
Prohibited content
By submitting an order, you confirm your design is none of the following:
- Weapons or weapon components — firearms, frames, lower receivers, suppressors, magazines, knives over local legal limits, or any item primarily designed to cause harm
- Items prohibited by U.S. or destination-country law
- Copyrighted characters or trademarks you don't own or license — Marvel, Disney, Nintendo, Pokémon, Star Wars, etc. We comply with all DMCA takedown notices
- Sexually explicit content
- Items promoting hate, violence, or harassment against any group
- Counterfeit currency, fake IDs, lock-pick kits, or other items designed to facilitate fraud or burglary
- Medical devices requiring FDA clearance (orthotics, prosthetics intended for clinical use, dental implants, surgical guides)
- Items designed for life-safety applications without explicit certification
- Drug paraphernalia as defined under U.S. federal law
What happens if you submit prohibited content
- Order is cancelled, you are refunded in full
- Account flag is added; second offense results in account termination
- For serious offenses (CSAM, terrorism-related, etc.) we report to law enforcement and preserve evidence
Reporting violations
If you see designs on Cloud Forge that violate this policy, email abuse@cloudforge3d.com. We review reports within 48 hours.
Intellectual property complaints (DMCA)
Copyright owners may submit takedown notices to dmca@cloudforge3d.com. Include:
- Identification of the work claimed to be infringed
- Identification of the allegedly infringing design or order
- Your contact information
- A statement that you have a good-faith belief that use is unauthorized
- A statement under penalty of perjury that the information is accurate and you are the rights holder or authorized agent
- Your physical or electronic signature
Counter-notifications follow the procedure in 17 U.S.C. § 512(g).
Our discretion
This list isn't exhaustive. We reserve the right to refuse any order at our sole discretion. Refusal does not constitute a judgment about the legality of the design — it just means we choose not to manufacture it.
