01Acceptance
By accessing the website at use-charter.dev (the “Site”) or using the
Charter software (the “Software”), you agree to these Terms of Service. If you do
not agree, do not use the Site or the Software.
02Software & license
In short: the Software is open source under Apache-2.0. That license governs your rights to use, modify, and distribute it.
The Software is licensed under the Apache License, Version 2.0. Your use, reproduction, modification, and distribution of the Software are governed by that license, whose terms control in the event of any conflict with these Terms with respect to the Software itself. The full text is included in the project repository.
03Acceptable use
When using the Site, you agree not to:
- Disrupt, overload, or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Site or its infrastructure;
- Use the Site to distribute malware or unlawful content;
- Misrepresent your affiliation with the Charter project.
Use of the Software is governed by its license rather than this section.
04Intellectual property
In short: the code you scan is entirely yours. Charter reads it locally and claims no rights to it.
The Charter name, wordmark, and logo are marks of the Charter project; these Terms grant no right to use them except as permitted by applicable law or the Software’s license. You retain all rights to the repositories, code, and content you analyze with the Software — the Software processes them locally and we obtain no rights in them.
05No warranty
In short: a readiness score is guidance, not a guarantee. It does not certify that a repository is secure.
THE SITE AND SOFTWARE ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE”, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO THE IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. The readiness score and findings are informational and do not constitute a security audit, certification, or guarantee. You are responsible for evaluating their suitability for your needs.
06Limitation of liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL THE CHARTER PROJECT OR ITS CONTRIBUTORS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR EXEMPLARY DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR USE OF THE SITE OR SOFTWARE, WHETHER IN CONTRACT, TORT, OR OTHERWISE, EVEN IF ADVISED OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH DAMAGES.
07Third parties
The Site links to third-party services such as GitHub and our documentation host. We are not responsible for the content, policies, or practices of any third-party site, and accessing them is at your own risk under their terms.
08Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless the Charter project and its contributors from any claims, liabilities, damages, and expenses arising out of your misuse of the Site or your violation of these Terms.
09Changes
We may revise these Terms as the project evolves. Material changes are reflected by the “Last updated” date above. Continued use of the Site or Software after a change constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
10Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Charter project maintainers are established, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Nothing here limits any non-waivable statutory rights you may have as a consumer.
