Terms of Service
Last updated: March 2026
By accessing or using the xtrct API ("Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Use of the Service
You may use the Service only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. You are responsible for ensuring that your use complies with all applicable laws and the terms of service of any websites you scrape.
2. Prohibited uses
You must not use the Service to:
- Scrape websites in violation of their terms of service where legally prohibited
- Collect personal data in violation of applicable privacy laws (GDPR, CCPA, etc.)
- Conduct denial-of-service attacks or overload target servers
- Scrape content for the purpose of creating competing scraping services
- Attempt to bypass or circumvent the Service's rate limits or security measures
- Resell or sublicense API access without our written permission
3. API keys
Your API key is personal and must not be shared publicly (e.g. in public repositories). You are responsible for all activity under your API key. If you believe your key has been compromised, rotate it immediately via POST /v1/keys/rotate or contact us.
4. Credits and billing
Credits are consumed per request as described in the pricing documentation. Monthly credits reset at the start of each billing period. Credits are non-refundable except as required by law. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled before the renewal date.
5. Service availability
We aim for 99.9% uptime but do not guarantee uninterrupted access to the Service. We may modify, suspend, or discontinue the Service at any time with reasonable notice.
6. Disclaimer of warranties
The Service is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. We do not guarantee that scraping any particular website will succeed, as target sites may block requests at any time.
7. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, xtrct shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the Service.
8. Termination
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your access if you violate these Terms, without prior notice. You may cancel your subscription at any time from your Stripe billing portal.
9. Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. Continued use of the Service after changes constitutes acceptance.
