Terms of Service

Acceptable use, fair-use rules for fetcher-backed APIs, and service terms.

1. Service Scope & Marketplace Billing

Tinplate provides deterministic and edge-hosted micro-APIs via https://api.tinplate.dev, distributed through RapidAPI and Zyla API Hub. Plan quotas, rate limits, overages, and refunds are governed by your subscribed marketplace plan.

Fair-Use Policy

2. Fair-Use Clause for Fetcher-Backed APIs

Certain endpoints (/v1/html-to-markdown, /v1/security-headers, and /v1/ssrf-firewall with redirect inspection) fetch public URLs on your behalf via an isolated SSRF-guarded Worker (edgeguard-fetcher). By using these endpoints, you agree not to:

Target private, loopback, RFC1918, CGNAT, or cloud metadata networks, or attempt to bypass SSRF protections.
Use Tinplate as an open proxy, DDoS amplifier, credential-stuffing relay, or high-frequency bulk scraper.
Fetch unlawful content or circumvent target authentication or access controls.

All outbound fetches enforce a 10-second timeout, a 1 MB response body cap, and redirect-hop limits. Abusive fetch patterns may be throttled or suspended.

3. Advisory Outputs & No Warranty

All Tinplate APIs are provided "as is" without warranty of any kind. Advisory security outputs (including SSRF pre-checks, security header scores, signup fraud scores, prompt-injection scores, and JSON repairs) assist your application logic and do not replace defense-in-depth enforcement in your own infrastructure.
