⚠️ Plain-language draft. These terms describe how apistore.live works today. They are not legal advice and have not been reviewed by a lawyer. If you need certainty for a regulated or high-value use case, get independent legal advice.
1Acceptance
By creating an account, minting an API key, or sending a request to apistore.live, you agree to these Terms. If you are accepting them for a company or other legal entity, you confirm you have the authority to bind that entity.
If you do not agree with any part of these Terms, do not use the service. You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of majority where you live, whichever is higher.
2Account Use
You are responsible for everything that happens under your account and for keeping your credentials confidential. Your password is stored only as a hash, and two-factor authentication is available — enable it for any account with a live balance.
API keys are bearer credentials: anyone holding a key can spend your balance. Treat them like cash. If a key leaks, freeze or delete it immediately from the dashboard and contact us.
Provide accurate registration details, and keep them current. We may suspend accounts that appear to be created to evade a previous suspension, abuse trial credit, or impersonate another person.
3API Usage
The service is an OpenAI-compatible gateway. You send requests to our endpoint with your key, and we route them to the upstream model provider. Requests and responses may be logged for metering, debugging and abuse prevention, as described in our Privacy Policy.
Requests are rejected with an error before reaching the provider when your balance is exhausted or a limit is hit, so you are never billed for a request we refused. See the API documentation for the full list of error codes.
We may apply rate limits to protect the platform and other customers. We do not promise any specific uptime, throughput, or latency unless you have a separate written agreement with us.
4Billing
apistore.live is prepaid. You top up a balance, and usage is deducted per token at the rates published in the model catalog. There are no subscriptions and no minimum spend.
Published prices may change. A price change never applies retroactively: it affects requests made after the change, and the current rate is always the one shown in the catalog at the time of the request.
Top-ups are non-refundable except where a refund is required by applicable law. Unused balance does not expire while your account is in good standing. Taxes, if any, are your responsibility unless stated otherwise.
Because top-ups are manual, credit is applied once we confirm the payment. Message us on Telegram for billing and top-ups.
5Prohibited Uses
You must not use the service to:
- break any law, regulation, or third-party right, including intellectual-property and privacy rights;
- generate sexual content involving minors, non-consensual intimate imagery, or material that incites violence or terrorism;
- build malware, conduct phishing or fraud, or bypass security controls;
- impersonate a person or organisation in a way intended to deceive;
- resell, sublicense, or share access in a way that defeats per-account metering, or publish keys for public use;
- probe, scan, or overload the platform, or attempt to access another customer's data or keys;
- circumvent upstream provider policies. You remain bound by the acceptable-use terms of the model providers behind the gateway.
We may investigate suspected violations and suspend or terminate an account that breaches this section.
6Liability
The service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.
We route to third-party providers whose models can be changed, degraded, rate-limited or discontinued without notice, and whose output can be inaccurate. You are responsible for reviewing model output before relying on it, especially in medical, legal, financial, or safety-critical contexts.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, our total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the service is limited to the amount you paid us in the 3 months before the event giving rise to the claim. We are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, revenue, data, or goodwill.
Nothing here excludes liability that cannot lawfully be excluded.
7Termination
You may stop using the service at any time and ask us to close your account from the contact page. Revoke your keys when you do.
We may suspend or terminate your access immediately if you breach these Terms, if your account is used for fraud or abuse, if we are required to by law, or if we discontinue the service. Where practical, we will give notice and a reasonable chance to export your data.
On termination, unused balance is handled under the Billing section. Sections on Prohibited Uses, Liability, and Contact survive termination.
8Changes
We may update these Terms as the service evolves. When we make a material change we will update the date at the top of this page and notify you by email or in the dashboard.
Changes apply to your use after they take effect. Continuing to use the service after that point means you accept the updated Terms.
