AI Content Disclosure Policy
BLOXoffice documents AI provenance so your film is ready for festival submissions, streaming partner requirements, and global AI content regulations.
BLOXoffice requires all filmmakers submitting new content to our platform to complete an AI Content Disclosure. This disclosure is a structured, stored provenance record — not a judgment of your film's quality or artistic merit.
The disclosure requirement activates your existing obligation under §4.4 of the Content Submission Release & Warranty you execute at submission. Films submitted to BLOXoffice before this policy took effect are grandfathered — no retroactive disclosure is required.
EU AI Act (enforcement: August 2026)
The European Union's Artificial Intelligence Act requires that AI-generated content intended for distribution be clearly labeled. Platforms distributing content in EU markets — including streaming platforms like BLOXoffice — are required to implement disclosure mechanisms for AI-generated material. Failure to comply can result in significant fines for both the platform and the content creator.
California AB 2655
California's AB 2655 establishes disclosure requirements for AI-generated content distributed in California. Given BLOXoffice's audience reach and the breadth of California's market, BLOXoffice treats this as applicable to all content on the platform regardless of a filmmaker's state of residence.
This policy summary is provided for informational purposes only and does not constitute legal advice. Filmmakers with questions about their specific regulatory obligations should consult their own legal counsel.
When a filmmaker discloses that their film contains AI-generated elements (selecting "Partially" or "Significantly" on the disclosure form), BLOXoffice displays an "Contains AI-Generated Content" badge on the film's detail page.
- The badge is displayed only when the filmmaker has made this disclosure.
- Films with no attestation on file show no badge — they are grandfathered.
- Films where the filmmaker selected "No AI content" show no badge.
- The badge does not reflect BLOXoffice's independent verification — it reflects the filmmaker's attested disclosure.
Filmmakers can update their AI content disclosure at any time from their account dashboard under Provenance Records. Each update creates a new versioned record — your prior disclosures are preserved in the audit trail and are never deleted.
If your film's AI content changes after submission (for example, due to a re-edit incorporating new AI-generated elements), you are required under your Content Submission Release & Warranty to promptly update your disclosure.
Provenance records are retained for a minimum of 7 years per BLOXoffice's data retention policy and applicable law.
Festival programmers, distribution partners, and other authorized third parties can request access to a filmmaker's provenance record to verify AI content disclosures. Full records require a BLOXoffice filmmaker account login.
Third-party access is handled through an automated request flow:
- Submit a request at /provenance/request or email Festivals@BLOXoffice.net.
- BLOXoffice generates a 48-hour time-limited access link for the specific film's attestation record.
- The record is displayed in a read-only web view (view-only — no download from this view).
- Access is logged for audit purposes.
A false or materially inaccurate AI content disclosure is a material breach of the Content Submission Release & Warranty between the filmmaker and BLOXoffice. Consequences may include:
- Removal of the film from the BLOXoffice platform
- Suspension of the filmmaker's BLOXoffice account
- Potential legal liability under applicable AI content labeling laws
- Forfeiture of earned but unpaid revenue at platform discretion
BLOXoffice does not independently audit AI content at submission. The disclosure system is built on filmmaker attestation. The platform reserves the right to investigate reports of false disclosures and act in accordance with the Content Submission Release & Warranty and applicable law.
