Legal Simplicity
All images generated on Hocha can be downloaded and used for free—for both personal and commercial purposes. This applies to all users, whether you're on our free plan or a paid plan.
What is allowed? ✅
Free Commercial Use
All images generated on Hocha are free to use for commercial purposes. You can use them in advertising, marketing materials, products, websites, social media, and any other commercial applications without restrictions.
No Attribution Required
Attribution is not required. Giving credit to Hocha or the original creator is not necessary but always appreciated.

Use Community Images
Images shared publicly in our community gallery can be downloaded and used by anyone for both personal and commercial purposes, with the same freedoms as your own generated images.
What is not allowed? ❌
Don't Claim Copyright Ownership
You cannot claim exclusive copyright ownership over AI-generated images. Under U.S. law and many other jurisdictions, AI-generated images created through prompt engineering are generally not eligible for copyright protection. However, if you make substantial creative contributions beyond prompting (such as editing, combining, or arranging), those human-authored aspects may qualify for protection.
Don't Show People in a Bad Light
Identifiable people may not appear in a bad light or in a way that is offensive. Don't use images of people in ways that could be defamatory, harmful, or portray them negatively.
Don't Sell Unaltered Copies
Don't sell unaltered copies of an image, e.g., as a poster, print, or on a physical product without modifying it first. You can use images in products you create and sell, but you must incorporate them into your creative work rather than selling them as-is.
Don't Imply Endorsement
Don't imply endorsement of your product by people or brands on the imagery. Using images that feature identifiable people or brands in ways that suggest they endorse your product or service is not allowed.
Don't Redistribute on Stock Platforms
Don't redistribute or sell the images on other stock photo or wallpaper platforms. This includes uploading them to competing stock photo services, wallpaper marketplaces, or similar platforms.
Don't Use as Trademark
Don't use the images as part of your trademark, design mark, trade name, business name, or service mark without significant modification.
Don't Infringe on Third-Party Rights
Don't use images that infringe on third-party trademarks, personality rights, or other rights. Avoid using images that closely resemble copyrighted characters or protected works.
Don't Generate Illegal Content
Don't use our service to generate illegal, harmful, or inappropriate content. You are responsible for ensuring your use complies with applicable laws and regulations.

⚠️ Important Legal Note
Copyright Laws Vary: Copyright protection for AI-generated images varies by jurisdiction. In the United States and many other countries, images created solely through prompt engineering are generally not eligible for copyright protection. However, laws differ—some jurisdictions (like the UK) may grant copyright protection under certain circumstances.
No Legal Advice: This license information is provided for general guidance only and does not constitute legal advice. Copyright laws are complex and evolving. We recommend consulting with a qualified legal professional in your jurisdiction if you have specific questions about copyright protection for AI-generated content.
Your Responsibility: You are responsible for ensuring your use complies with applicable laws in your jurisdiction and does not infringe on third-party trademarks, personality rights, or other rights.
