Terms of Use
These terms govern your use of SilMaker at https://silmaker.com and the files it creates.
By using the tool, you agree to use it lawfully and only with images you are allowed to process.
LAST UPDATED: SEPTEMBER 20, 2026The service
SilMaker is a browser-based image editor for filled silhouettes, outlines, and background removal that keeps the subject’s original colors. You can keep the original background, choose a solid color, or save with transparency.
The Hollow option for outlines leaves the surrounding photo visible and makes the inside of the subject transparent. Results are PNG images, not editable vector paths.
Features, supported formats, and availability may change as the tool improves.
Your images and your rights
You keep the rights you already hold in your image and its output. SilMaker does not claim ownership of the photo you select or the PNG it creates. Converting an image does not give you new rights to a photograph, character, logo, artwork, person’s likeness, or other protected material.
You are responsible for making sure you own the image, have permission or a suitable license, or otherwise have a lawful basis to process and use it.
Acceptable use
Do not use SilMaker to:
- infringe copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, or other rights;
- create or distribute unlawful, abusive, exploitative, or deceptive material;
- interfere with the site, bypass reasonable limits, or attempt to compromise its software or hosting;
- misrepresent an output as proof of identity, authenticity, or factual events.
- publish sexual or exploitative imagery, severe graphic violence, hate or harassment, exposed personal information, or content that facilitates illegal activity;
- flood the service with automated requests, hundreds of files in a single attempt, request-limit evasion, or deliberate storage and request abuse.
Reports and removal
For copyright, trademark, privacy, publicity, safety, or other legal concerns, email hello@silmaker.com with a clear explanation and any useful evidence. Urgent or clear violations may be addressed without advance notice.
Output quality
Subject detection is automatic and can make mistakes. Fine hair, transparent objects, low contrast, reflections, overlapping subjects, and cropped shapes may produce incomplete or inaccurate results. Review every output before publishing, printing, or relying on it in another project.
No warranty
The tool is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis without a promise that it will always be available, error-free, or suitable for a particular purpose. Save important source images and finished files somewhere you control.

Changes
These terms may be updated when the service, its business model, or legal requirements change. Continued use after an updated version is published means the updated terms apply to later use.
