Attempt to circumvent rate limits, quotas, or security measures
Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble the Services

5. API Keys

API keys are confidential credentials assigned to your account. You must keep them secure and must not share them publicly or embed them in client-side code. You are responsible for all API calls made using your keys. If you believe a key has been compromised, delete it immediately from your dashboard and create a new one.

6. Subscriptions and Payments

Unused email validations do not roll over to the next billing period
You may cancel your subscription at any time; cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period

7. Service Availability

We strive to maintain high availability of our Services but do not guarantee uninterrupted access. We may temporarily suspend the Services for maintenance, updates, or due to circumstances beyond our control. We will make reasonable efforts to provide advance notice of planned maintenance.

10. Disclaimer of Warranties

The Services are provided "as is" and "as available" without warranties of any kind, either express or implied. We do not guarantee the accuracy of email validation results, as deliverability status may change over time.
