Terms of Service

1. Acceptance

By creating an account or using PingQL, you agree to these terms. If you don't agree, don't use the service.

2. Permitted Use

PingQL is a developer tool for uptime monitoring. You may use it to monitor URLs and endpoints that you own or have explicit permission to monitor. That's it.

3. Prohibited Use

You may not use PingQL to:

• Monitor URLs you aren't authorized to access
• Send requests that intentionally harm third-party systems
• Conduct or facilitate any illegal activity
• Create multiple accounts to circumvent free tier limits
• Scrape, crawl, or harvest data from third-party services at scale
• Distribute, resell, or sublicense access to the service without permission

4. Account Responsibility

Your account key is your credential. Keep it safe. You're responsible for everything done with it. One account per person or organization. If we detect accounts created solely to abuse free tier limits, we'll terminate them without notice.

5. Fair Use

Free tier limits exist to make the service sustainable. Using automation, scripts, or any other method to work around them is a violation of these terms and grounds for immediate termination.

6. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account at any time, with or without notice, if we believe you're violating these terms. Given the privacy-first nature of the service, we can't always investigate. Detectable abuse will result in termination.

7. Service Availability

PingQL is provided as-is. We aim for high availability but make no guarantees of uptime, data retention, or uninterrupted service. Don't rely solely on PingQL for mission-critical monitoring.

8. Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, PingQL is not liable for any indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service. Your use is at your own risk.

9. Changes

We may update these terms from time to time. Continued use of the service after changes are posted constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
