Terms Notice

By accessing or using our APIs, you are agreeing to the terms below. If there is a conflict between these terms and additional terms applicable to a given API, the additional terms will control for that conflict. Collectively, we refer to the terms below, any additional terms, terms within the accompanying API documentation, and any applicable policies and guidelines as the "Terms." You agree to comply with the Terms and that the Terms control your relationship with us. So please read all the Terms carefully. If you use the APIs as an interface to, or in conjunction with other Api Forex products or services, then the terms for those other products or services also apply.

Account and Registration

Accepting the Terms

You may not use the APIs and may not accept the Terms if (a) you are not of legal age to form a binding contract with Api Forex, or (b) you are a person barred from using or receiving the APIs under the applicable laws of Hong Kong or other countries including the country in which you are resident or from which you use the APIs.

Entity Level Acceptance

If you are using the APIs on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that entity to the Terms and by accepting the Terms, you are doing so on behalf of that entity (and all references to "you" in the Terms refer to that entity).

Registration

In order to access certain APIs you may be required to provide certain information (such as identification or contact details) as part of the registration process for the APIs, or as part of your continued use of the APIs. Any registration information you give to Api Forex will always be accurate and up to date and you'll inform us promptly of any updates.

Using Our APIs

Your End Users

You will require your end users to comply with (and not knowingly enable them to violate) applicable law, regulation, and the Terms.

Compliance with Law, Third Party Rights, and Other Terms of Service

You will comply with all applicable law, regulation, and third party rights (including without limitation laws regarding the import or export of data or software, privacy, and local laws). You will not use the APIs to encourage or promote illegal activity or violation of third party rights.

Permitted Access

You will only access (or attempt to access) an API by the means described in the documentation of that API. You will not misrepresent or mask either your identity or your API Client's identity when using the APIs or developer accounts.

API Limitations

Api Forex sets and enforces limits on your use of the APIs (e.g. limiting the number of API requests that you may make or the number of users you may serve), in our sole discretion. You agree to, and will not attempt to circumvent, such limitations documented with each API. If you would like to use any API beyond these limits, you must obtain Api Forex's express consent. To seek such approval, contact the relevant Forex API team for information.

Open Source Software

Some of the software required by or included in our APIs may be offered under an open source license. Open source software licenses constitute separate written agreements. For certain APIs, open source software is listed in the documentation. To the limited extent the open source software license expressly supersedes the Terms, the open source license instead sets forth your agreement with Api Forex for the applicable open source software.

Your API Clients

Security

You will use commercially reasonable efforts to protect user information collected by your API Client, including personally identifiable information ("PII"), from unauthorized access or use and will promptly report to your users any unauthorized access or use of such information to the extent required by applicable law.

Ownership

Api Forex does not acquire ownership in your API Clients, and by using our APIs, you do not acquire ownership of any rights in our APIs or the content that is accessed through our APIs.

User Privacy and API Clients

You will comply with all applicable privacy laws and regulations including those applying to PII (Personally Identifiable Information). You will provide and adhere to a privacy policy for your API Client that clearly and accurately describes to users of your API Client what user information you collect and how you use and share such information.

Prohibitions and Confidentiality

API Prohibitions

When using the APIs, you may not (or allow those acting on your behalf to):

Sublicense an API for use by a third party. Consequently, you will not create an API Client that functions substantially the same as the APIs and offer it for use by third parties.
Perform an action with the intent of introducing to Api Forex products and services any viruses, worms, defects, Trojan horses, malware, or any items of a destructive nature.
Interfere with or disrupt the APIs or the servers or networks providing the APIs.
Reverse engineer or attempt to extract the source code from any API or any related software, except to the extent that this restriction is expressly prohibited by applicable law.
Remove, obscure, or alter any Google terms of service or any links to or notices of those terms.

Confidential Matters

Developer credentials (such as passwords, keys, and client IDs) are intended to be used by you and identify your API Client. You will keep your credentials confidential and make reasonable efforts to prevent and discourage other API Clients from using your credentials. Developer credentials may not be embedded in open source projects.
