If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Service.

2. API Keys & Account Security

To use the Service, you must obtain a valid API key. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality and security of your API key and account credentials. You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use, breach, or suspected breach of your account. Kriora.com shall not be liable for any losses or damages resulting from unauthorized access to your account.

3. Usage Limits & Permitted Use

We currently do not enforce specific rate limits, but we reserve the right to impose usage caps or throttling at any time without notice. You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You must not use the Service to:

All usage is billed in accordance with the current pricing plans posted on our website. Payments are processed through Stripe. All charges are final and non-refundable, except as required by law. We reserve the right to change pricing, billing methods, or subscription models at any time upon notice (via email, account notification, or website update). You are solely responsible for any taxes, duties, or charges associated with your use of the Service.

5. Intellectual Property

All rights, title, and interest in and to the Service—including all software, APIs, algorithms, documentation, and underlying technologies—are and will remain the exclusive property of Kriora.com and its licensors. No rights or licenses are granted to you except as expressly set forth in these Terms. You may not copy, modify, distribute, sell, lease, or create derivative works from any part of the Service without prior written permission.

6. Disclaimers & Limitation of Liability

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY. WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, RELIABILITY, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

  • Direct, indirect, incidental, special, punitive, or consequential damages
  • Loss of revenue, profit, data, or business opportunities
  • Damages resulting from service interruptions, delays, errors, or data loss
  • Claims by third parties related to your use of the Service

This limitation of liability applies even if we were advised of the possibility of such damages and regardless of the legal theory (contract, tort, negligence, etc.).

7. Indemnification

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Kriora.com, its affiliates, and their respective officers, directors, employees, contractors, and agents from and against any and all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, expenses, and costs (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to:

  • Your access to or use of the Service

We reserve the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter subject to indemnification.

  • Your API key will be disabled
  • All rights granted to you under these Terms will cease
  • You remain responsible for any outstanding fees or liabilities
  • We are not liable for any loss or damages resulting from suspension or termination

9. Governing Law & Dispute Resolution

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction where Kriora.com is headquartered, without regard to conflict of law principles. You agree that any disputes arising under or in connection with these Terms shall be exclusively resolved in the competent courts of that jurisdiction.

You waive any objection to the venue or jurisdiction of such courts.

10. Modifications to Terms

We reserve the right to update or modify these Terms at any time. Changes will be effective upon posting on our website. Continued use of the Service after any such changes constitutes your acceptance of the updated Terms. We encourage you to review the Terms periodically.
