Terms of Service
When you use ByteFluxApi's automated testing frameworks, you're entering into an agreement that protects both your interests and ours. These terms became effective January 15, 2025, and they're designed to be straightforward rather than filled with legal jargon that nobody understands.
You can use our testing tools for legitimate software development and quality assurance purposes. We've built these frameworks to help development teams create more reliable applications, and we want you to get the most value from them. However, please don't attempt to reverse engineer our proprietary algorithms or redistribute our code without permission.
Acceptable Use
Our testing frameworks are meant for professional software development environments. You're welcome to integrate them into your CI/CD pipelines, use them for automated regression testing, and incorporate them into your development workflows. What we ask is that you don't use excessive server resources or attempt to overwhelm our systems with unnecessary requests.
Privacy and Data Protection
Your data privacy matters to us, especially given Taiwan's evolving data protection landscape. We collect minimal information—basically what's necessary to provide our testing services and improve our frameworks based on real usage patterns.
What We Actually Collect
Test execution logs (without your proprietary code), basic usage metrics, and contact information you provide. We don't scan your source code or store sensitive business logic. Your intellectual property stays yours.
When your testing frameworks run, they might generate performance data that helps us understand how our tools work in different environments. This information is anonymized and aggregated—we can see that "Framework A" performed well with "Application Type B" but we can't see what your specific application does or how it's built.
Data Retention
We keep operational logs for 90 days to help with troubleshooting and system improvements. Account information and usage history are retained for as long as you maintain an active relationship with us. If you decide to stop using ByteFluxApi, just let us know and we'll remove your data within 30 days.
Intellectual Property Rights
The ByteFluxApi testing frameworks represent years of development work and considerable technical expertise. We own the underlying algorithms, the framework architecture, and the various innovations that make our automated testing tools effective.
That said, any test scripts you write using our frameworks belong to you. The results generated by our testing tools are yours to use however you see fit. We're providing the engine—the applications you test and the insights you gain are entirely your intellectual property.
Third-Party Integration
Our frameworks integrate with various development tools and platforms. We respect the terms of service of these third-party systems and expect our users to do the same. If you're using our testing tools with GitHub, Jenkins, or other platforms, make sure you're complying with their respective policies as well.
Service Availability and Limitations
We work hard to keep ByteFluxApi running smoothly, but like any technology service, we can't promise 100% uptime. Server maintenance, unexpected technical issues, and occasional updates might temporarily affect availability. We typically schedule maintenance during Taiwan's off-peak hours when possible.
Service Limitations
Our testing frameworks work well for most applications, but they're not magic. Complex legacy systems, highly specialized protocols, or applications with unusual architectures might require custom configuration or may not be fully compatible with our automated approaches.
We provide our testing tools "as is"—they're sophisticated and effective, but software development is complex and every application is different. While our frameworks catch many types of issues, they can't replace thoughtful development practices or comprehensive manual testing where appropriate.
Liability and Dispute Resolution
We're committed to providing reliable testing tools, but we can't accept responsibility for issues that arise from how those tools are used or integrated into your specific development environment. Our liability is limited to the fees you've paid for our services.
If disagreements arise, we prefer to resolve them through direct communication rather than formal legal proceedings. Taiwan's legal framework provides a solid foundation for fair dispute resolution, and we're committed to working within that system if informal resolution isn't possible.
Updates and Changes
Technology evolves, and so do our services. We'll notify you of significant changes to these terms at least 30 days before they take effect. Minor updates or clarifications might be implemented more quickly, but we'll always keep you informed about anything that affects your use of ByteFluxApi.
