Collectively, Apidog Content, User Content, and Team Content are referred to as “Content.”

Subject to the foregoing, Apidog and its licensors exclusively own all right, title and interest in and to the Service and Apidog Content, including all associated intellectual property rights. You acknowledge that the Service and Apidog Content are protected by copyright, trademark, and other laws of the United States and foreign countries.

You represent and warrant that you own your User Content or you have all rights that are necessary to grant us the license rights in your User Content under these Terms. You also represent and warrant that neither your User Content, nor your use and provision of your User Content to be made available through the Service, nor any use of your User Content by Apidog on or through the Service will infringe, misappropriate or violate a third party’s intellectual property rights, or rights of publicity or privacy, or result in the violation of any applicable law or regulation or violate any agreement you have with any third party.
Sharing User Content: You may designate your User Content as “public” (such as posting User Content to an Team Project) or “private”. You agree that User Content you designate as public will be accessible by and be available to other users of the Service to whom you grant access to such publicly designated User Content. Consequently, you understand and agree that such users will have the right to view, comment on and tag your publicly designated User Content.

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, including but not limited to the restriction of access to your computer and/or account. Sharing of your User login or password is prohibited. You accept responsibility for any and all activities or actions that occur under your account. You must notify us immediately upon becoming aware of any breach of security or unauthorized use of your account.
You may not use as a username the name of another person or entity that is not lawfully available for use, or a name or trademark that is subject to any rights of another person or entity other than you, without appropriate authorization. You may not use as a username any name that is offensive, vulgar or obscene.
You may not use the Service if you are 13 years of age or younger. By using the Service, you represent and warrant that you are over the age of 13.
4. Projects
User Content submitted, posted or modified by users in the Service is organized into separated sections we refer to as “Projects.”
In the Service, you can work across multiple Projects at once, meaning your single account can access your own Personal Project(s) and your employer’s Team Project. Projects are completely separate, and you won’t be able to link any Content between them (although you can transfer Content from one Projects to another). You can also export your User Content from your Projects for use outside of the Service using our export tool available on our online account management page. Note that exporting or transferring Team Content from a Team Project will be managed by the applicable Team administrator, which may or may not allow you to use our export or transfer tools for Team Content.
Users that join an Team Project agree that their Apidog account data and User Content created in that Projects may be shared with that Team and may be accessed, modified, or deleted by the Projects owner or administrator. Further, you acknowledge and agree that if you register for Apidog with an email address provisioned by an Team (“Enterprise Personal Email”), you agree that such Team may be able to view information about any Projects you create or for which you are an administrator, including a list of Team members, and guests and Content. Such Team may have the ability to manage your Projects, including to claim control and ownership of any Project you create or for which you are an administrator, including any Content within such Projects.
If you join an Team Projects, your use must comply with that Team’s policies and any agreement that you may have with that Team. Team Projects are subject to such Team’s control. Team administrators may be able to access, disclose, restrict, or remove Content in or from the Team Project. They may also be able to restrict or terminate your access to the Team Project. If you convert an existing Personal Project into a Team Project or transfer or share content with a Team Project, your administrator(s) may prevent you from later disassociating Content from the Team Project.
5. Interacting with Team Projects
A Team may (i) invite you to use or permit you to use their Team Project; and/or (ii) invite you to join the Service as their Team User.
As stated in the “Content” section of these Terms, if you submit or post Content to an Team Project (such Content, the “Team Content”), then as between you, apidog, and such Team, the Team will own all rights to such Team Content. For the avoidance of doubt, the foregoing does not prevent you from entering into a separate agreement between you and the Team that addresses ownership of Content as between you and such Team.
Teams are authorized to add and remove users to use their unique Team Projects. Users that have been authorized to use an Team Project of the Service by an Team are referred to as an “Team User” while they are using such Team Projects. If you purchased an Team Subscription on behalf of your team or employer, your team or employer is the team, and not you. The Team can modify and re-assign roles on the Team Projects (including your role). If the Team elects to replace you as the representative with ultimate authority for the Team Projects, you agree to take any actions reasonably requested by us or the Team to facilitate the transfer of authority to a new representative of the Team.
If you are using a Team Project as a Team User, you acknowledge that the Service as used by you under such circumstances is a workplace tool intended for use by businesses and teams and not for consumer purposes. To the maximum extent permitted by law, you hereby acknowledge and agree that consumer laws do not apply in connection with such use of a Team Project as a Team User.
6. Subscriptions
Some parts of the Service are made available on a paid subscription basis ("Subscription(s)"). Pricing and included features for the Subscriptions (“Subscription Plan(s)”) are set forth here: apidog.com. “Subscription Fees” means all fees associated with your Subscription.
You will be billed in advance on a recurring and periodic basis ("Billing Cycle"). Billing Cycles are set on a monthly or yearly basis. Whether you are using monthly or yearly billing, your account may be charged on a monthly basis.
Auto-Renewal: You agree that at the end of each Billing Cycle, your Subscription will automatically renew and your payment method for such Subscription will automatically be charged at the start of each new Subscription period for the fees and taxes applicable to that Billing Cycle, under the same conditions as the prior Billing Cycle unless you cancel your Subscription prior to your renewal date.
A valid payment method, including credit card, is required to process the payment for your Subscription. You must provide Apidog with accurate and complete billing information including full name, address, state, zip code, and valid payment method information. By submitting such payment information, you automatically authorize Apidog to charge all Subscription Fees incurred through your account to any such payment instruments.
Should automatic billing fail to occur for any reason, Apidog may attempt to charge the credit card on file one or more times. Should payment continue to fail, the Subscription will be, at Apidog’s sole discretion, cancelled or downgraded and you may lose access to certain paid features and/or your Project and Apidog account.
You may cancel your Subscription either through your online account management page or by contacting Apidog customer support team at support@apidog.com and indicating your intention to cancel your Subscription.
7. Fees and Fee Changes
Apidog, in its sole discretion and at any time, may modify the Subscription Fees for the Subscriptions. Any Subscription Fee change will become effective at the end of the then-current Billing Cycle.
Apidog will provide you with reasonable prior notice of any change in Subscription Fees.Your continued use of the Service constitutes your agreement to pay the modified Subscription Fees.
Subscription Fees are stated exclusive of any taxes or similar governmental assessments of any nature, including, for example, value-added, sales, use or withholding taxes, assessable by any jurisdiction (collectively, “Taxes”). You will be responsible for paying all Taxes associated with your Subscription, except for those taxes based on our net income. Should any payment for the Service be subject to withholding tax by any government, you will reimburse us for such withholding tax.

The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to resolve any dispute relating to the interpretation, construction, validity, applicability, or enforceability of these Terms, the Privacy Statement, the DPA, this arbitration provision, and any other terms incorporated by reference into these Terms. The arbitrator shall have the exclusive and sole authority to determine whether any dispute is arbitrable.

You and Apidog expressly waive any right to pursue any class or other representative action against each other.
Failure or any delay in enforcing this arbitration provision in connection with any particular claim will not constitute a waiver of any rights to require arbitration later or in connection with any other claims except that all claims must be brought within 1 year after the claim arises.
If the class action waiver is deemed unenforceable (i.e., unenforceability would allow arbitration to proceed as a class or representative action), then the remaining portions of this arbitration provision shall remain in full force and effect.
