01 Acceptance and scope
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) apply when you access or use the Flasho Studio photo booth experience, including its touchscreen or web interface, cameras, image sensors, lighting, printers, event galleries, digital delivery features, and optional text messaging program (collectively, the “Service”). “Flasho Studio,” “we,” “us,” and “our” refer to the operator of the Service.
By starting a photo session, submitting contact information, requesting delivery, or otherwise using the Service, you agree to these Terms and acknowledge the Privacy Policy and Consent Notice. If you do not agree, do not use the Service or enter the marked capture area.
An event host, venue, or client may also set event-specific rules. If those rules conflict with these Terms, the stricter safety, consent, and privacy requirement applies unless prohibited by law.
02 Participation, knowledge, and consent
Photo booth participation must be voluntary and informed. Before capturing an image, the person starting the session must make sure that every recognizable person in the frame knows a photo is about to be taken and agrees to be included.
- Do not secretly photograph, record, track, or monitor anyone.
- Do not include a person who has declined, withdrawn consent, or appears unable to understand the situation.
- Move bystanders outside the capture area, or obtain their approval before continuing.
- For a minor, participation must be authorized by a parent, legal guardian, or another adult legally permitted to provide consent.
- Event hosts and operators are responsible for suitable signage and for communicating event-specific uses of the images.
03 Responsible and acceptable use
You agree to use the Service lawfully, respectfully, and in a way that protects the people and equipment involved. You are responsible for the conduct of your session and for obtaining the permissions needed for the people, props, trademarks, artwork, or other material you include.
You may not use the Service to:
- harass, intimidate, exploit, impersonate, discriminate against, or invade the privacy of another person;
- create or distribute content that is unlawful, threatening, defamatory, sexually exploitative, or non-consensual;
- photograph minors without appropriate adult authorization;
- interfere with the camera, sensors, lighting, printer, network, software, access controls, or safety equipment;
- extract data, bypass controls, introduce malicious code, or use automated tools against the Service; or
- use unsafe props, block exits, climb on equipment, or ignore instructions from the venue, event host, or operator.
We may pause or end a session, withhold content, or restrict access when reasonably necessary to protect people, property, privacy, security, or legal compliance.
04 Cameras and image sensors
The Service uses camera image sensors and may use related light, proximity, orientation, or depth information to compose the frame, manage focus and exposure, detect when a participant is positioned for capture, run the countdown, apply selected visual effects, and produce photos or prints.
The Service is not intended for covert surveillance. Unless a separate, clear notice says otherwise before capture, it is also not intended to identify a person, perform facial recognition, infer sensitive traits, or create a biometric identity profile. If a particular event uses a feature that goes beyond ordinary image capture or positioning, participants must receive an additional notice and any consent required by law before that feature is used.
Covering, moving, disabling, or misusing a camera or sensor can make the Service unsafe or unreliable and is not permitted.
05 Photos, ownership, and permissions
As between you and Flasho Studio, you retain any rights you already hold in the photos and other content you create. You grant Flasho Studio a limited, non-exclusive license to capture, process, temporarily display, store, reproduce, format, print, and transmit that content only as needed to provide, secure, support, and maintain the Service.
Using the Service does not by itself give Flasho Studio permission to use a participant’s image in advertising, public social media, or promotional materials. Any promotional use requires separate, clear permission from the person depicted or an authorized representative.
You represent that your session and requested use do not violate another person’s privacy, publicity, copyright, trademark, or other rights. If the event host commissioned the Service, the host may receive access to event media according to its event agreement and must use that media lawfully.
06 Delivery, galleries, and sharing
Photos may be delivered by on-screen download, QR code, print, email, text message, event gallery, or another method disclosed at the event. Anyone who receives a photo or access link is responsible for sharing it carefully and respecting the wishes and rights of the people shown.
Do not forward private access links, publish a photo against a participant’s wishes, remove privacy protections, or use the content for harmful, deceptive, or unlawful purposes. Event galleries may be accessible to the event host and people who receive the relevant access method. Links can be copied by recipients, so participants should treat them accordingly.
07 Text messaging terms
Flasho Studio may offer optional SMS or MMS messages for requested photo links, access codes, event updates, support responses, or closely related transactional notices. You receive texts only after providing a mobile number and taking an affirmative action to opt in. Consent to receive text messages is not a condition of purchasing goods or services, entering an event, or using a non-messaging photo booth feature.
Opting out applies to the mobile number used and may prevent future photo links from being delivered by text. You may still request another available delivery method. Wireless carriers and messaging service providers may process routing information to transmit messages.
No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Text messaging originator opt-in data and consent will not be shared with any third parties. Limited service providers may process information only to deliver and support the messaging program under contractual restrictions. See the SMS privacy section for more information.
08 Service availability and equipment
The Service may be affected by venue connectivity, lighting, power, printer supplies, device limitations, carrier delivery, or maintenance. We may modify or temporarily suspend a feature for safety, security, maintenance, or legal reasons. We do not guarantee that every capture, print, upload, access link, or message will be error-free or continuously available.
Participants must follow all on-site instructions and use reasonable care around stands, cables, lights, screens, and printers. Report damage, overheating, unstable equipment, or another safety concern immediately and stop using the affected equipment.
09 Disclaimers and limits
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Service is provided “as is” and “as available.” Flasho Studio is not responsible for losses caused by a participant’s unauthorized capture or sharing, a third party’s misuse, a recipient’s disclosure of an access link, a carrier or venue outage, or events outside our reasonable control.
Nothing in these Terms excludes liability that cannot legally be excluded or limits mandatory consumer rights. If applicable law does not allow a stated limitation, that limitation applies only to the maximum extent allowed.
10 Changes, questions, and requests
We may update these Terms to reflect changes in the Service, law, or safety and privacy practices. The “Last updated” date shows when the latest version took effect. Material changes will be communicated in a reasonable way when required.
For questions, accessibility needs, privacy requests, or help with a photo or message, contact the Flasho Studio representative or event organizer who provided your booking or event access. For messaging assistance, you may also reply HELP to the number from which you received the message.
These Terms are governed by applicable law. Mandatory rights and remedies available in your location remain unaffected.
