The Service is not available to any Users we previously removed from the Service.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any access to, or use of, the Service by anyone who is a minor (which is under the age of 18 in most jurisdictions) in any applicable jurisdiction (a "Minor") is strictly prohibited and in violation of these Terms, unless such access and/or use is supervised by a parent or legal guardian ("Parent") who: (a) has read and understands these Terms; (b) approves all rights granted, and all obligations undertaken, by the Minor hereunder; and (c) agrees to be bound by these Terms. If you are a Parent of a User who is a Minor, then, by allowing such Minor to access and/or use the Service, you are subject to these Terms and responsible for such Minor's activity on the Service.
2. User Accounts
2.1 Your User Account
Your account on the Service (your "User Account") gives you access to certain services and functionalities that we may, in our sole discretion, establish and maintain as part of the Service from time to time. You acknowledge that, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, you do not own your User Account, nor do you possess any rights to data stored by or on behalf of Quome on the servers running the Service. We may maintain different types of User Accounts for different types of Users.
2.2 Organizational Accounts

By providing us with your email address, you consent to our using that email address to send you Service-related notices, including any notices required by Applicable Law, in lieu of communication by postal mail. We may also use that email address to send you marketing communications ("Marketing Emails"). If you do not want to receive Marketing Emails, you may opt out by contacting us at legal@quome.com or by clicking the "unsubscribe" link within a Marketing Email. Opting out will not prevent you from receiving Service-related notices.

Upon their termination for any reason or no reason, you continue to be bound by these Terms.

WE EXPRESSLY DISCLAIM ALL LIABILITY ARISING FROM YOUR INTERACTIONS WITH OTHER USERS, AND FOR ANY USER'S ACTION OR INACTION, INCLUDING RELATING TO USER CONTENT (AS DEFINED BELOW).
3. Access to the Service; Service Restrictions
3.1 Access to the Service
Subject to your compliance with these Terms and any documentation we may make available to you, you are hereby granted a non-exclusive, limited, non-transferable, and freely revocable right to access and use the Service, solely for your personal use or internal business purposes, as applicable, strictly as permitted by the features of the Service. We reserve all rights not expressly granted herein in and to the Service. Certain portions of the Service may be available only during Subscription Term(s), as further described in Section 8.4 (Subscription Plans).
3.2 Bring Your Own Service Account (BYOSA) Model
The Service operates a Bring Your Own Service Account (BYOSA) model for infrastructure provisioning. Under BYOSA:
(a) You provide your own cloud provider account (GCP project, AWS account, or Azure subscription) into which the Service provisions and manages infrastructure on your behalf.
(b) Your applications, databases, storage, and secrets reside in your own cloud provider account. Quome's control plane stores only orchestration metadata (resource names, configuration parameters, deployment status).
(c) Quome accesses your cloud provider account through short-lived delegated credentials (maximum 1-hour lifetime) obtained through your identity federation configuration. Quome never stores long-lived cloud credentials.
(d) You may revoke Quome's access at any time by modifying the delegation trust configuration in your cloud provider account, with immediate effect.
(e) You are solely responsible for the security, configuration, and compliance of your cloud provider account, including maintaining a separate agreement with your cloud provider as applicable.
(f) Cloud infrastructure costs incurred in your cloud provider account are billed directly by your cloud provider and are separate from any Quome Fees.
3.3 Restrictions and Acceptable Use
Except to the extent a restriction is prohibited by Applicable Law, you will not do, and will not assist, permit, or enable any third party to do, any of the following:
(a) disassemble, reverse engineer, decode, or decompile any part of the Service;
(b) use any automated means to access the Service in a manner that sends more request messages to our servers than a human can reasonably produce in the same period using a conventional web browser (except that Quome grants the operators of public search engines revocable permission to use spiders to copy publicly available materials for creating publicly available searchable indices);
(c) use any content available on or via the Service for any machine learning and/or artificial intelligence training or development purposes without our prior written consent;
(d) buy, sell, or transfer API keys without our prior written consent;
(e) copy, rent, lease, sell, loan, transfer, assign, license, or purport to sublicense, resell, distribute, modify, alter, or create derivative works of any part of the Service or any of our Intellectual Property;
(f) use the Service in any manner that impacts the stability, operation, or performance of the Service;
(g) take any action that imposes an unreasonable or disproportionately large load on our infrastructure;
(h) use the Service in any manner or for any purpose that violates Applicable Law, infringes third-party rights, is fraudulent, deceptive, or defamatory, or promotes hatred, violence, or harm;
(i) use or display the Service in competition with us, to develop competing products or services, or for benchmarking or competitive analysis;
(j) bypass measures we use to prevent or restrict access to the Service;
(k) attempt to interfere with or compromise the system integrity or security of the Service;
(l) use the Service to transmit spam, chain letters, viruses, or other harmful components;
(m) impersonate another person or entity or misrepresent your affiliation;
(n) collect or harvest personal information from the Service; or
(o) identify or refer to us in a manner that could reasonably imply endorsement, affiliation, or sponsorship without our prior express written consent.

4.3 User Content in BYOSA Accounts
User Content stored in your cloud provider account under the BYOSA model (including applications, databases, stored files, and secrets) is accessed by Quome only through delegated credentials as described in Section 3.2 and only as necessary to provide the Service. The license granted in Section 4.2 applies to User Content processed through Quome's control plane; User Content residing solely in your cloud provider account is governed by your agreement with your cloud provider.

15. Governing Law, Arbitration, and Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver

These Terms will be governed by the internal substantive laws of the State of Delaware, without respect to its conflict of laws principles. The Federal Arbitration Act (9 U.S.C. Sections 1-16) ("FAA") governs the interpretation and enforcement of the Arbitration Agreement below and preempts all state laws to the fullest extent permitted by Applicable Law. The application of the United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods is expressly excluded.
15.2 Arbitration Agreement
READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY BECAUSE IT REQUIRES THE PARTIES TO ARBITRATE THEIR DISPUTES AND LIMITS THE MANNER IN WHICH YOU CAN SEEK RELIEF FROM US. This Arbitration Agreement applies to any dispute, controversy, or claim between you and us arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Service, or any aspect of your relationship with us (each, a "Claim").
Opting Out. If you are a new User, you can opt out of this Arbitration Agreement within thirty (30) days of accepting these Terms by emailing legal@quome.com with your full legal name and stating your intent to opt out.
Dispute Resolution Process. For any Claim, you will first contact us at legal@quome.com and attempt to resolve the Claim informally. If not resolved within sixty (60) days, we each agree to resolve the Claim exclusively through binding arbitration by JAMS before a single arbitrator, under the Optional Expedited Arbitration Procedures then in effect. The arbitration will be conducted in the U.S. county where you live or Sussex County, Delaware, unless agreed otherwise.
Equitable Relief. Nothing in this Arbitration Agreement prevents us from seeking injunctive or equitable relief from courts to protect our data security, Confidential Information, or Intellectual Property Rights, or prevents you from asserting claims in small claims court.
Severability. If any provision of this Arbitration Agreement is found void or unenforceable, it will be severed without impact on the remaining provisions.
15.3 Class Action/Jury Trial Waiver
BY ENTERING INTO THESE TERMS, YOU AND QUOME ARE EACH WAIVING THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY OR TO BRING, JOIN, OR PARTICIPATE IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION, OR OTHER REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING OF ANY KIND. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S OR ENTITY'S CLAIMS. ANY RELIEF AWARDED MAY NOT AFFECT OTHER USERS.
16. U.S. Government Restricted Rights
To the extent the Service is used by or on behalf of the U.S. Government, the Service will be deemed commercial computer software or commercial computer software documentation.

17. Export Controls
You will comply with all applicable import, export, and re-export control and trade and economic sanctions laws and regulations, including the Export Administration Regulations (U.S. Department of Commerce), OFAC sanctions (U.S. Treasury Department), and ITAR (U.S. State Department).

18.3 Entire Agreement; Severability
These Terms, together with any amendments and Additional Terms, constitute the entire agreement between you and us concerning the Service. If any provision is deemed invalid by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions remain in full force and effect.
18.4 No Waiver
No waiver of any term will be deemed a further or continuing waiver, and our failure to assert any right will not constitute a waiver of such right.
