Terms of Service

Please read these Terms of Service ("Terms") carefully before using the Hubfly space platform, CLI, and associated API services (collectively, the "Service").

1. Acceptance of Terms

By registering for or using Hubfly space, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, strictly do not use the Service.

2. Account & Responsibilities

• Account Security: You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and API tokens (PATs).
• Project Ownership:The user who creates a project is the "Project Owner." The user who creates a specific resource is the "Resource Owner" and is responsible for the costs generated by that resource.
• Team Activity: Project Owners are responsible for the activity and conduct of members they invite to their projects.

3. Service Usage & Restrictions

3.1. Acceptable Use

You agree strictly NOT to use Hubfly space for:

• Illegal activities, malware distribution, or phishing.
• Cryptocurrency mining or other resource intensive tasks that degrade the platform for other users, unless explicitly permitted on Dedicated instances.
• Scanning, attacking, or testing the vulnerability of external networks without authorization.

3.2. Resource Limits

• Free Tier: Free instances are shared resources. We reserve the right to put free instances to sleep during idle periods or terminate them if they exceed fair use limits.
• Storage: Temporary storage is ephemeral. We are not liable for data lost when a container is stopped or restarted. You must use persistent storage for critical data.
• Tunnels: SSH tunnels are ephemeral and intended for development and debugging. You agree not to use them for permanent, high-bandwidth content delivery.

3.3. Zero Tolerance for Illegal Content

We maintain a strict zero tolerance policy for illegal content. If you are found to be hosting or distributing illegal material, or if we receive a valid report regarding such content:

1. Immediate Deletion: We will permanently delete associated storage blocks, containers, and data without prior notice or opportunity for recovery.
2. Account Termination: Your account will be immediately suspended or terminated.
3. Law Enforcement Reporting: We will report relevant account details, access logs, and content to the appropriate authorities.

4. Billing and Payments

4.1. Pay-Per-Use Model

• You agree to pay fees based on actual resource consumption as described on our Pricing page.
• Billing is calculated per second, minute, or hour depending on the specific resource metric.

4.2. Pre-Funding & Auto-Scaling

• Certain features may require a pre-funded account balance.
• If your balance reaches zero, we reserve the right to suspend or terminate running instances immediately.

4.3. Refunds

• Fees are non-refundable except as required by law. Users are responsible for monitoring their own usage.
• No Refunds for Violations: Accounts terminated for violating Section 3 are not eligible for refunds of remaining balances.

5. Intellectual Property
