1. Usage policies
We want everyone to be able to use our API safely and responsibly. To that end, we've created use-case and content policies. By following them, you'll help us make sure that our technology is used for good. If we discover that your product doesn't follow these policies, we'll ask you to make necessary changes. If you don't comply, we may take further action, including terminating your account. If you're unsure whether your product follows our policies, please reach out to team@fruitful.ag. We'll be using a combination of automated and manual methods to monitor for policy violations. We believe this will be more effective at preventing misuse while reducing up-front friction for clients.
