In these terms, "ShaderCore", "we" and "us" refer to the provider above; "you", "User" or "Customer" refer to any person using shadercore.app or purchasing from it.
These terms govern all use of shadercore.app and its services: the free demo, CoreEngine Pro accounts and credits, the Shop (digital images and image packs), and the affiliate program. By using the website, creating an account or completing a purchase, you confirm that you have read, understood and accepted these terms in their entirety. If you do not accept them, you must not use the services.
Age: the services are reserved for persons aged at least 18, or the age of majority in their jurisdiction if higher.
Accounts: you are responsible for the accuracy of your email address, for keeping your password confidential and for all activity under your account. Accounts are personal and may not be shared, sold or transferred.
Free account bonus: the free videos offered on sign-up are granted once per person and per email address, after email confirmation. Creating multiple accounts, using disposable addresses or any other attempt to obtain the bonus more than once is prohibited; affected accounts and their bonus credits may be removed without notice.
Free demo: the image-to-video demo on the homepage is free and subject to a limited daily quota, which we may change at any time.
Credits: CoreEngine Pro works with prepaid credits sold in one-time packs. One video generation costs $0.10 of credits. Credits are reserved when a generation starts and automatically returned to your balance if the generation fails. Credits do not expire, have no cash value, cannot be exchanged for money and are not transferable.
Missing credits: if your credits are not added after a purchase, contact support with your Gumroad receipt and the credits will be added manually.
Service changes: we may improve, modify, replace or discontinue models, features, quality settings or quotas. If the paid generation service is permanently discontinued, unused purchased credits will be refunded on request.
Products: the Shop sells digital illustrations, individually or as packs delivered in a ZIP archive. Previews shown on the website are reduced and watermarked; the purchased files are delivered in full resolution, without watermark. Product descriptions (format, resolution, number of images) are provided as accurately as possible.
Prices & minimum order: prices are shown in US dollars. A minimum order amount may apply. The order total is calculated on our servers from the current catalog prices.
Delivery: after payment confirmation, your files are available on your order page, and a download link is sent to the email address used for payment. Please keep this email; it may also land in your spam or promotions folder. Download links are personal and must not be shared.
Exact payment required: the amount paid must match the order total. An order paid with a lower amount is not delivered; contact support, and it will be either refunded or completed.
Non-exclusive products: images are not unique: the same image or pack may be sold to other customers.
AI-assisted creation: Shop images are created by ShaderCore using AI-assisted tools and are selected, refined and curated by ShaderCore.
Purchasing an image or pack does not transfer ownership or copyright. It grants you a non-exclusive, worldwide, perpetual, non-transferable license to use the purchased files under the conditions below.
✓ You may
✕ You may not
Scope: the license belongs to the purchaser. A company may use the files internally for its own projects. The license does not cover third parties, clients or customers receiving the raw files; only finished works incorporating the images may be delivered to them.
Breach: any use beyond this license terminates it automatically, without refund, and may lead to legal action.
ShaderCore content: the Shop images, previews, the CoreEngine model and its architecture, the software, website, interface, texts and the ShaderCore name and logo are the property of ShaderCore or its licensors and are protected by intellectual property laws. All rights not expressly granted are reserved. © 2026 ShaderCore. All rights reserved.
AI-generated works: the scope of copyright protection for works created with AI tools varies between jurisdictions and is still evolving. ShaderCore does not guarantee that any image or generated video is eligible for copyright protection or registration. Your license is nevertheless contractual and binding regardless of such protection.
Third-party rights: Shop images are original creations and are not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any third party. Any category name or style description is purely descriptive. You are responsible for ensuring that your own final use, including any text, logos or elements you add, does not infringe third-party rights.
Restrictions: reverse engineering, scraping, automated or bulk access, resale or sub-licensing of the service, and any attempt to extract, copy or replicate CoreEngine or the Shop catalog are strictly prohibited.
You must not upload, generate, publish or distribute through ShaderCore any content that:
ShaderCore may refuse, block or remove any request or content and may suspend accounts in breach of these rules, without refund.
Uploaded images: you keep all rights to the images you upload. You warrant that you own them or hold all necessary rights and consents, and you grant ShaderCore a limited license to process them solely to provide the service.
Generated videos: subject to these terms and to the rights in your source image, you may use the videos you generate for personal and commercial purposes, and you are solely responsible for how you use and distribute them. When the source image is a Shop image, the video remains subject to the image license in section 6.
No monitoring obligation: ShaderCore does not review generations before they are produced and is not responsible for user content.
Payment processor: all purchases are processed by Gumroad, which acts as reseller and merchant of record and handles payment, invoicing and applicable taxes; Gumroad's own terms also apply to the transaction. ShaderCore never sees or stores your card or banking details.
Taxes: prices on our website exclude taxes. Depending on your country or state, VAT or sales tax may be added at checkout.
One-time payments: credit packs and Shop orders are one-time payments. There is no subscription and no recurring charge.
Digital content & refunds: credits and files are made available immediately after payment. All purchases are therefore final and non-refundable, including unused credits and downloaded files. By completing a purchase, you expressly request immediate performance of the contract and acknowledge that you lose any right of withdrawal once delivery has begun. This does not affect any mandatory rights that may apply where you live.
Exceptions: if a file is defective or does not match its description, or if you were charged twice for the same order, contact support within 14 days: we will replace the file or refund the order.
Chargebacks: unjustified or bad-faith chargebacks will be contested with full documentation and lead to immediate revocation of the corresponding licenses and credits, and to account termination.
If you believe that content on ShaderCore infringes your rights, send a notice to support@shadercore.app including: your identity and contact details, the work you claim is infringed, the exact URL of the content concerned, and a statement that your notice is accurate and that you are the rights holder or authorized to act on their behalf. Valid notices are handled promptly; content may be removed while the claim is reviewed. Abusive or knowingly false notices may engage the liability of their author.
As-is: the services and files are provided "as is" and "as available". Results produced by artificial intelligence may vary and differ from expectations. ShaderCore does not guarantee uninterrupted or error-free availability of the service.
Limitation: to the fullest extent permitted by law, ShaderCore is not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages, loss of profit, data or reputation, nor for issues on the user side (browser, device, connection). ShaderCore's total liability is limited to the amount you paid to ShaderCore during the 12 months preceding the event giving rise to the claim. Liability for intent or gross negligence, and any liability that cannot be excluded by law, remains unaffected.
You agree to indemnify and hold ShaderCore harmless from any claim, damage, cost or expense, including reasonable legal fees, arising from your content, your use of the services or files, or your breach of these terms or of third-party rights.
You may stop using the services at any time and request deletion of your account. ShaderCore may suspend or terminate any account in case of breach of these terms, fraud, abuse or legal requirement, without refund where the breach is attributable to you. Sections that by their nature should survive termination (notably 6, 7, 12, 13 and 17) remain in force.
Controller: ShaderCore (contact in section 1). We process personal data in accordance with the Swiss Federal Act on Data Protection (FADP) and, where applicable, the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR).
Data we collect: email address; password (stored hashed); account status, credit balance and usage history; orders and download history; IP address and technical logs (security, abuse prevention, sign-up limits); newsletter preference; anonymous visit statistics. Payment data is collected and processed exclusively by Gumroad.
Purposes & legal bases: providing the services and performing the contract; security and fraud prevention (legitimate interest); legal obligations; newsletter, only with your consent, which you can withdraw at any time.
Generation data: images and prompts you submit are processed solely to generate your video, on GPU infrastructure operated by third-party providers, and are not used to train our models.
Recipients: our hosting provider, our payment processor (Gumroad), GPU and AI infrastructure providers, and authorities when required by law. Some providers may process data outside Switzerland, including in the United States; such transfers rely on appropriate safeguards. Your data is never sold.
Retention: account data is kept while your account is active and deleted on request, except where retention is required by law (e.g. accounting). Unconfirmed sign-ups are deleted automatically. Technical logs are kept for a limited period.
Your rights: you may request access, rectification, deletion, restriction, portability, and object to processing, by writing to support@shadercore.app. You may also lodge a complaint with the competent data protection authority (in Switzerland, the FDPIC).
We use only what is needed to run the website: a session cookie to keep you signed in; an affiliate cookie (sc_ref, 30 days) when you arrive through a partner link; a traffic-source cookie (sc_src, 30 days) for anonymous statistics; and your browser's local storage to keep your Shop cart and order list. We do not use advertising cookies.
These terms are governed by Swiss law, excluding its conflict-of-law rules and the UN Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods. The exclusive place of jurisdiction is Zug, Switzerland. Consumers keep the protection of the mandatory provisions of the law of their country of residence and may also bring proceedings there where the law so provides.
Changes: we may update these terms at any time; the version and date above indicate the latest revision. Purchases are governed by the version in force at the time of purchase. Continued use after an update constitutes acceptance.
Severability: if any provision is held invalid, the remaining provisions remain in force, and the invalid provision is replaced by a valid one closest to its purpose.
Language: these terms are drafted in English, which prevails over any translation.
Affiliate program: participation is subject to these terms and to the program conditions shown in the affiliate area.
