Terms of Service

1.Agreement

CodeTrawl (“we”, “us”) is an early proof of concept, not yet run by a registered company. These Terms of Service still form an agreement between you and us covering how you use the service. Our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy are part of these terms.

2.The service

CodeTrawl analyzes GitHub repositories and returns a deterministic “grade” across four lenses — health, security, forensics, and supply — plus optional AI-generated commentary. Analysis is a best-effort estimate built from public signals and heuristics. It may be incomplete, out of date, or wrong. Don’t treat a grade as a guarantee — verify anything important against the source.

3.Your account

• You must provide accurate information and keep your credentials secure. You’re responsible for activity under your account.
• You must be at least 16, or the age of digital consent in your country.
• If you connect GitHub, you authorize us to access the repositories you ask us to analyze. You can revoke that access from GitHub at any time.

4.Acceptable use

You agree not to:

• analyze repositories you have no right to access, or use CodeTrawl to infringe anyone’s rights;
• attempt to break, overload, or circumvent the service’s limits or security;
• resell or rebrand the hosted service without our permission.

The service enforces automated rate limits (per-IP caps on session creation, refreshes, and AI calls, plus a daily AI budget) to keep it available for everyone. If you hit a limit, slow down. Persistent abuse may lead to suspension.

5.Plans & billing

• Free is free. Plus and Pro are paid subscriptions billed monthly or annually through our payment provider, Polar.
• Subscriptions renew automatically until cancelled. You can cancel any time; see our Refund & Cancellation Policy for what happens then and your withdrawal rights.
• We may change prices with reasonable notice. Changes don’t affect the current paid period.

6.Termination

You can stop using CodeTrawl and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access if you breach these terms, or if we need to for legal or security reasons. We may also discontinue the service with reasonable notice. On termination, your right to use the service ends; relevant sections (e.g. liability, IP) survive.

7.Intellectual property

The CodeTrawl name, branding, and hosted service are ours. The CodeTrawl source code is licensed under PolyForm Noncommercial 1.0.0: you may use, modify, and self-host it for personal, educational, or nonprofit purposes, but not for commercial gain without a separate license. Your repositories and analysis results remain yours — using CodeTrawl doesn’t transfer any rights in your code to us.

8.No warranty

CodeTrawl is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including fitness for a particular purpose, accuracy, or uninterrupted availability. Nothing in these terms excludes liability that cannot be excluded under applicable law, including your statutory rights as a consumer.

9.Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, lost profits, or lost data arising from your use of the service. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. This does not limit liability for death, personal injury, fraud, or anything else that can’t be limited by law.

10.Governing law

As a pre-launch project, CodeTrawl hasn’t set a governing jurisdiction yet — that will be specified, along with the registered operator, before any commercial launch. Whatever is chosen, your mandatory local consumer-protection rights always apply.

11.Changes

We may update these terms. We’ll change the “last updated” date and, for material changes, give notice by email or in-app. Continuing to use CodeTrawl after changes take effect means you accept them.
