Terms of Service & Conditions

Last Updated: August 10, 2026

Welcome to DataBee (“we,” “us,” or “our”), accessible at https://databee.dev. By accessing or using our developer portal, APIs, software, proxy infrastructure, website, and related applications (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to be legally bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”).

1. Acceptance & Authority

By creating an account, generating API keys, or invoking any API endpoints, you confirm that you have read, understood, and agreed to these Terms. If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of a company, organization, or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have full legal authority to bind that entity to these Terms.

2. API Usage & Acceptable Use Policy (AUP)

• Account Credentials & Keys: You are strictly responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and API keys. All actions, requests, traffic, and costs incurred under your API keys are your sole legal responsibility.
• Prohibited Conduct: You agree NOT to use DataBee’s Services to:
  • Distribute malware, ransomware, spyware, or engage in malicious cyber activities.
  • Attempt to bypass, compromise, or test platform security, authentication barriers, or system architecture without prior written authorization.
  • Conduct denial-of-service (DoS) attacks or intentionally overwhelm third-party target networks or DataBee infrastructure.
  • Resell, sublicense, white-label, or redistribute raw API access to unauthorized third parties without explicit written consent from DataBee.
  • Perform unauthorized competitive benchmarking, load testing, or reverse engineering against DataBee infrastructure.
• High-Risk Use Exclusion: STRICT PROHIBITION: DataBee APIs are not certified or intended for high-risk, safety-critical, or emergency environments. You are expressly prohibited from using our Services in applications where service downtime, data inaccuracies, or network latency could lead to death, personal injury, physical or environmental damage, critical infrastructure failure, emergency response operations, or automated financial trading execution.

3. Web Scraping, Third-Party Data & Target Site Demands

• Nature of Service: DataBee provides developer infrastructure designed to scrape, extract, process, structure, and deliver web data from third-party publicly accessible web sources (including, but not limited to, Similarweb).
• Data Rights & Compliance: You warrant and agree that your inputs, queries, search parameters, and downstream storage or distribution of scraped data comply with all applicable laws, data privacy regulations, and third-party rights in your jurisdiction.
• Service Interruptions & Third-Party Blockages: DataBee does not own or control third-party target websites. Third parties may alter their site structures, update HTML schemas, deploy anti-bot protections, or issue IP blockages that temporarily or permanently impair our ability to extract data from a specific target site.
• 30-Day Remediation & Refund Guarantee: If a target site blocking or structural source change prevents DataBee from servicing a specific scraping endpoint:
  1. DataBee will make commercially reasonable, best efforts to restore and resume service functionality.
  2. If DataBee is unable to restore the affected endpoint after thirty (30) consecutive days of disruption, DataBee will, upon written request, issue a prorated refund for the dollar value of your remaining, unused credits tied to that impaired endpoint or service.
• Third-Party Takedown Requests: If a targeted third-party web source issues a legal demand, cease-and-desist letter, or formal notice to DataBee regarding automated data collection, DataBee reserves the right to immediately suspend, modify, or terminate access to that specific scraping endpoint without prior notice or liability.

4. Billing, Prepaid Credits & Optional Overage

• Prepaid Credit Expiration: Services operate on a prepaid credit system. Purchased credits are valid for twelve (12) months from the exact date of purchase. Any unused credits remaining after 12 months will automatically expire and are non-refundable, except as explicitly provided under Section 3 (Service Disruption Guarantee).
• Overage Charges:
  • Overages are disabled by default.
  • If you manually enable the “Overage” feature within your account dashboard, you authorize DataBee to process additional credit purchases or bill your payment method on file as usage exceeds your base account limits.
  • If overage is disabled and your credit balance reaches zero, API calls will be automatically throttled, rate-limited, or blocked until additional credits are added to your account.

5. API Deprecation & Platform SLA

• API Deprecation Notice: DataBee reserves the right to update, modify, or deprecate API endpoints. We will make commercially reasonable efforts to provide at least thirty (30) days’ prior written or electronic notice before introducing breaking API changes or completely deprecating an active API endpoint, except where emergency security patches or third-party legal demands require immediate deployment.
• Platform Availability: While DataBee strives for maximum infrastructure uptime and performance, Services are provided strictly on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis.

6. Data Retention, Logging & Privacy

• Operational Logging: DataBee stores system execution logs, request metadata, status codes, response headers, performance metrics, and account event histories to maintain network security, monitor rate limits, prevent abuse, and fulfill user debugging requests.
• No AI/Model Training: DataBee does not use, sell, aggregate, or disclose your API request payloads, query parameters, returned scraped responses, or proprietary customer data to train internal or third-party machine learning or artificial intelligence models.

7. Intellectual Property Rights

All platform architecture, proxy infrastructure, software, proprietary extraction algorithms, API designs, documentation, branding, and trademarks associated with DataBee remain the exclusive intellectual property of DataBee. Subject to your compliance with these Terms, DataBee grants you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and invoke the APIs in accordance with your subscribed plan.

  2. THE TOTAL AMOUNT ACTUALLY PAID BY YOU TO DATABEE IN THE THREE (3) MONTHS IMMEDIATELY PRECEDING THE EVENT GIVING RISE TO THE CLAIM.
