That's true for any of our existing and future products and all features that we add to our Services over time. There may be times where we do not exercise or enforce any right or provision of the Terms of Service; in doing so, we are not waiving that right or provision. These Terms of Service contain a limitation of our liability.

Use of Services

Our Services are intended to provide an easier way for you to extract and monitor publicly available data from the web at scale, but only where you have determined that such data can be extracted without breaking any laws, breaching any contracts or violating the rights of any third party.  Our Services are a tool, but it is your responsibility to ensure that you are using our Services in a lawful manner that does not violate the rights of any third party, or that requires the bypassing of any authentication systems you are not authorized to use with automations.

If you violate any of these Terms of Service, we may terminate your account and your use of the Services.

Account Terms

Services Adaptations and API Terms

We offer application program interfaces ("API"s) for some of our Services. Any use of the API, including through a third-party product that accesses the Services, is subject to these Terms of Use and the following additional, specific terms:

  1. You expressly understand and agree that we are not liable for any damages or losses resulting from your use of the API or third-party products that access data via the API.

Third parties may not access and employ the API if the functionality is part of an application that remotely records, monitors, or reports a Service user's activity other than time tracking, both inside and outside the applications. The Company, in its sole discretion, will determine if an integration service violates this provision. A third party that has built and deployed an integration for the purpose of remote user surveillance will be required to remove that integration.
  3. Abuse or excessively frequent requests to the Services via the API may result in the temporary or permanent suspension of your account's access to the API. The Company, in its sole discretion, will determine abuse or excessive usage of the API. If we need to suspend your account's access, we will attempt to warn the account owner first. If your API usage could or has caused downtime, we may cut off access without prior notice.
