Candy AI images: usage rights and sharing rules
Candy AI allows personal, non-commercial use of the content you generate and prohibits commercial use. You may share images informally with friends and post pictures of your own Create My AI characters on personal, unmonetized social accounts. Selling or licensing them, advertising with them or publishing them anywhere monetized is not allowed. This page summarizes Candy AI’s published rule and is not legal advice.

The rule in brief
The rule comes from one help-center article. It covers content generated on the platform and names characters, dialogues, images and stories. Two questions decide every case: is the use commercial, and whose character is it?
Allowed and not allowed
| Use | Status |
|---|---|
| Personal, non-commercial use | Allowed |
| Informal sharing with friends | Allowed |
| Posting images of your own Create My AI characters on a personal, unmonetized social account | Allowed |
| Posting content from characters featured on the Explore or home page | Not allowed |
| Selling or licensing generated content | Not allowed |
| Using it in marketing or advertising | Not allowed |
| Publishing it on monetized websites, apps, books or games | Not allowed |
Each row restates one item of the article in our own words; nothing has been added to either side.
Your own character or a featured one
The social-media permission is narrow. It covers images of characters you created yourself with Create My AI, posted on personal accounts that earn nothing. Content from the characters Candy AI features on its Explore or home page is excluded: the article says not to post it.
If you built your character another way and are unsure whether it counts, ask Candy AI’s support before posting. How custom characters are made is covered on the Character Studio page.
What counts as monetized
The article lists monetized websites, apps, books and games, alongside selling, licensing, marketing and advertising. In plain terms, and as our reading rather than Candy AI’s wording, a monetized place is one that earns money: a blog with advertising or affiliate links, a paid newsletter, a channel in a revenue program, merchandise.
That is why this guide, which earns affiliate commission, shows original diagrams and no generated images. The about page explains how the site is funded.
Five everyday situations
These are our readings of the rule, not rulings by Candy AI.
- Sending a picture to a friend in a private message
- Allowed: informal, unpaid sharing.
- Posting your own Create My AI character on your personal profile
- Allowed, provided the account is not monetized.
- Using a picture as a thumbnail on a channel that earns ad revenue
- Not allowed: monetized media.
- Printing a picture on products for sale
- Not allowed: selling generated content.
- Posting a picture of a featured character
- Not allowed: the rule excludes featured characters.
Before you post
- Is the character your own Create My AI creation?
- Is the account personal and unmonetized?
- Does the destination accept the content? As a general point rather than Candy AI documentation, every social network has its own rules, and many restrict adult material.
- Is it a clip rather than a picture? The rule covers generated content in general, so treat converted clips the same way.
If the use is commercial in any way, the published answer is no. Candy AI’s support (support@candymail.ai) is the place to ask about anything the rule does not cover.
A summary, not legal advice. This page restates a help-center article read on 13 November 2026. It is not the rule itself: Candy AI’s Terms of Service and the article linked below are the texts that count, and they can change. Other questions are answered in the FAQ.
