Terms of Service
These Terms of Service constitute a binding agreement between you and APIDark. By accessing or using our APIs, websites, or related services, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agreed to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree, you may not access the service. We aim to keep these terms straightforward so developers can focus on building.
Acceptance of Terms
Your use of APIDark is conditioned upon your acceptance of this agreement. We may update the terms as our offerings evolve, and continued use after changes take effect signifies your consent to the new terms. Notice of material changes will be provided through email or prominent announcements on our site. It is your responsibility to review the terms periodically.
Use of Service
The service is intended for lawful development activities. You agree not to misuse the APIs by attempting to disrupt, reverse engineer, or exploit them for unauthorized purposes. For additional guidelines on responsible integration, review Google's API Terms which inspire our own approach. Output from the service should not be used in a manner that violates privacy or intellectual property rights. If you operate within regulated industries, you are responsible for ensuring that your implementation complies with all applicable regulations and standards.
API Usage and Limits
Each API key is issued to a single developer or organization and may not be shared without permission. Usage quotas are enforced to maintain platform stability. If you require higher limits, contact us to discuss enterprise options. Automated scripts should implement reasonable backoff strategies to avoid unnecessary load. Abuse of rate limits may result in suspension or termination of access.
Content Ownership
You retain ownership of the data you send to APIDark. We claim no rights to the underlying content and only process it to deliver responses. Generated outputs are provided “as is” without warranties of any kind. You are responsible for verifying results before relying on them for critical decisions. If you provide feedback or suggestions, you grant APIDark a non-exclusive license to use that input to improve the service.
Termination
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access if you violate these terms or engage in activities that threaten the security or integrity of the platform. In most cases we will provide notice and an opportunity to cure the violation. Upon termination, your API keys will be revoked and associated data may be deleted according to our Privacy Policy. Sections that by their nature should survive termination—such as intellectual property and indemnity provisions—will remain in effect.
Disclaimer of Warranties
APIDark is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis. While we strive for high availability and accuracy, we make no warranties that the service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or suitable for any particular purpose. To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim all implied warranties, including merchantability and fitness for a particular purpose. Any reliance on the service is at your own risk.
Limitation of Liability
In no event shall APIDark be liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising out of or in connection with the service. Our total liability for direct damages is limited to the amounts you have paid us in the preceding twelve months. Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion of certain damages, so these limitations may not apply to you. You agree to indemnify and hold us harmless from claims arising from your use of the service.
Governing Law
These terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction where APIDark is headquartered, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising under these terms shall be resolved in the courts located within that jurisdiction. You consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts. For cross-border data transfers, we adhere to international agreements that protect personal information.

If you have questions about these terms or need clarification, please reach out to hello@apidark.com. We welcome constructive feedback and aim to respond promptly. Additional guidance on API usage is available in our documentation, and details on how we handle data can be found in the Privacy Policy. Your continued use of APIDark signifies your agreement to these terms and any future revisions.
