Terms of use

Draft. This text has not been reviewed by a lawyer yet. It will change before launch.

Your account

Keep your password and API keys secret. You are responsible for requests made with your keys. Tell us if a key is exposed and revoke it in your dashboard.

Acceptable use

Do not use the API to disrupt the service, to get around limits or quotas, or to break the law. Do not share one key between unrelated organisations. Stay within the rate limit and monthly quota of your plan.

Using the data

Every record names its source and licence. You must follow the licence of the source, including attribution. Redistributing the data to others needs a plan that allows it.

Availability

We work to keep the API running but do not promise uninterrupted service. There is no service level agreement unless we agree one in writing.

Data accuracy

We read data from official sources and say how each record was verified. Sources can be wrong or out of date. Check the source and verification fields before you rely on a record for a decision with legal or financial effect.

Ending the service

You can delete your account at any time. We may suspend an account that breaks these terms, after warning you where we can.

Contact details will be added before launch.
