By accessing or using the Service, you represent and warrant that:
- You are at least 18 years of age and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract in your jurisdiction of residence. - If you are using the Service on behalf of an organization, you have the legal authority to bind that organization to these Terms and you have obtained all necessary corporate approvals. - The information you provide during account registration is accurate, complete, and current, and you will promptly update it if it changes. - You are not located in, under the control of, or a national or resident of any country or territory to which the United States has imposed comprehensive economic sanctions. - You are not designated on any U.S. government prohibited parties list, including the Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) List, the Entity List, or the Denied Persons List. - You will comply with all applicable laws in connection with your use of the Service, including but not limited to U.S. securities laws, export control laws, anti-money-laundering regulations, and the laws of your country of residence. - You will not use the Service for any purpose that is illegal, fraudulent, deceptive, or harmful.

You may register using a supported OAuth provider (Google, GitHub, or LinkedIn) or any other registration method we make available. You agree to provide accurate, complete, and current information during registration and to promptly update your information if it changes.

You are solely responsible for: - Maintaining the confidentiality and security of your API Key and account credentials - All activity that occurs under your account or using your API Key, whether or not you authorized that activity - Immediately notifying us at [email protected] if you become aware of any unauthorized use of your account or API Key or any other security breach
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account immediately and without prior notice if we have reasonable grounds to believe your account has been compromised, is being used in violation of these Terms, or poses a security risk to the Service or other users.

The Service is offered under the following subscription tiers:
Sample (Free, no token required): No charge. Access is limited to S&P500 tickers with a 5-year history window and a burst rate limit of 15 requests per minute (150 per hour) per IP address. No service level agreement or support commitment. Valuein reserves the right to modify or discontinue the Sample tier at any time with 30 days' notice.

Covered by the Institutional-tier Service Level Agreement.
Enterprise (contact sales): Tailored data delivery, redistribution licensing, real-time 8-K event alerts, dedicated support, and custom SLA terms. Pricing is determined by individual written agreement.
Billing: All paid subscriptions are billed in advance — monthly on the anniversary of your subscription start date, or annually on the anniversary date if you selected annual billing. By subscribing to a paid plan, you authorize Valuein to charge your payment method on file through Stripe on a recurring basis until you cancel or we terminate your subscription. Annual subscribers are charged the full annual amount at the start of each annual period.
Cancellation: You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings or by contacting [email protected]. For monthly subscriptions, cancellation takes effect at the end of the then-current monthly billing period. For annual subscriptions, cancellation takes effect at the end of the then-current annual billing period. You retain access to the Service until the applicable period ends. We do not prorate unused periods upon cancellation, except as otherwise required by applicable law.
Refund Policy: Monthly subscribers may request a full refund within seven (7) calendar days of their initial subscription purchase or plan upgrade by contacting [email protected]. Annual subscribers may request a full refund within fourteen (14) calendar days of their initial annual subscription purchase. After the applicable refund window, no refunds will be issued except where required by applicable law. Refunds are not available for accounts terminated due to Terms violations.
Failed Payments: If a payment fails, we will attempt to re-charge the payment method on file up to three times over 10 calendar days. If payment is not resolved within 10 calendar days of the due date, we may suspend your access to paid tier features. If payment remains outstanding for 30 calendar days, we may terminate your subscription.
Taxes: All subscription fees are exclusive of taxes. You are responsible for paying all applicable sales taxes, value-added taxes (VAT), goods and services taxes (GST), withholding taxes, and any other taxes or government charges imposed on the transactions contemplated by these Terms. If Valuein is required by law to collect or remit taxes on your behalf, those taxes will be added to your invoice. If you are exempt from any tax, you must provide Valuein with a valid tax exemption certificate at the time of purchase.
Price Changes: We reserve the right to change subscription pricing with at least 30 days' advance notice to existing subscribers by email. Price changes take effect at the start of the next billing cycle following the notice period. For annual subscribers, price changes will not take effect until the renewal of the annual term. If you do not agree to a price change, you must cancel your subscription before the change takes effect.
API Usage and Rate Limits
Each subscription tier is subject to the following burst rate limits, enforced at the Cloudflare edge via the rate-limiter Worker:
Per-minute and per-hour limits (per token, or per IP address for the Sample tier): Sample: 15 requests per minute, 150 requests per hour (IP-bound, no authentication required). Free: 60 requests per minute, 1,000 requests per hour. Pro: 100 requests per minute, 3,000 requests per hour. Institutional: 300 requests per minute, 10,000 requests per hour. Enterprise: As specified in your individual agreement.
OAuth pre-authentication endpoints (/oauth/register, /oauth/authorize, /oauth/token) are independently rate-limited at 20 requests per minute (200 per hour) per IP address as a defense against abuse of the unauthenticated flow.
Shared counter across surfaces: The MCP Server (mcp.valuein.biz/mcp) and the Edge Gateway (data.valuein.biz) share a single counter per token. A Pro-tier token that consumes 100 requests on the MCP Server in a given minute will not be able to make additional Edge Gateway requests in that same minute; the token's budget is unified across all Valuein programmatic surfaces. Rate limits are published at https://data.valuein.biz/v1/plans and are the single source of truth.
Presigned URLs: Presigned URLs for direct R2 access expire after a maximum of 1 hour (3,600 seconds). Sharing presigned URLs with unauthorized third parties is prohibited.
Rate limit windows reset on a rolling basis. API requests that exceed your tier's limits receive an HTTP 429 (Too Many Requests) response with a Retry-After header indicating when the limit resets. Exceeding your rate limit does not incur additional charges, but persistent violations may indicate that an upgrade to a higher tier is appropriate.
Prohibited Circumvention: Systematic attempts to circumvent rate limits — including but not limited to creating multiple accounts, using multiple API keys across separate accounts, routing requests through proxies or VPNs to mask identity, sharing presigned URLs publicly, or coordinating distributed request patterns — constitute a material breach of these Terms and may result in immediate account suspension and forfeiture of any prepaid subscription fees.
We reserve the right to implement additional throttling or queuing mechanisms to protect Service stability for all users.

Force Majeure
Neither party shall be liable for any delay or failure in performance to the extent such delay or failure is caused by circumstances beyond that party's reasonable control ("Force Majeure Event"), including but not limited to: acts of God, natural disasters, earthquakes, floods, fires, or severe weather; acts of war, terrorism, civil unrest, or insurrection; government actions, embargoes, sanctions, or trade restrictions; pandemics, epidemics, or public health emergencies declared by the World Health Organization or applicable government authority; internet backbone failures, widespread telecommunications outages, or cyberattacks on critical infrastructure; outages at third-party services that Valuein depends on, including Cloudflare, Stripe, SEC EDGAR, and cloud infrastructure providers; power outages or grid failures affecting our infrastructure providers; or labor disputes, strikes, or work stoppages.
The affected party must provide notice to the other party within a reasonable time after the onset of the Force Majeure Event. The affected party's obligations shall be suspended for the duration of the Force Majeure Event, and applicable SLA commitments shall be adjusted accordingly. If a Force Majeure Event continues for more than 60 consecutive days, either party may terminate these Terms upon written notice to the other party.
Governing Law
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Wyoming, United States, without regard to its conflict of law principles. The United Nations Convention on Contracts for the International Sale of Goods (CISG) is expressly excluded and does not apply to these Terms. To the extent court proceedings are permitted under the Dispute Resolution section below, they shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in the State of Wyoming, and you hereby irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts and waive any objection based on inconvenient forum.
Dispute Resolution and Binding Arbitration
PLEASE READ THIS SECTION CAREFULLY. IT AFFECTS YOUR LEGAL RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO FILE A LAWSUIT IN COURT.
Informal Resolution First: Before initiating formal proceedings, both parties agree to attempt informal resolution. You agree to contact [email protected] with a written description of your dispute, the relevant facts, and the specific relief you seek. We will attempt to resolve the dispute informally within 30 days. If the dispute is not resolved within 30 days, either party may initiate arbitration as described below.
Binding Arbitration: Any dispute, controversy, or claim arising out of or relating to these Terms, the Privacy Policy, the Data License Agreement, the SLA, or the Service ("Dispute") that is not resolved informally shall be resolved by final and binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its Commercial Arbitration Rules, except as modified herein. The arbitration shall be conducted by a single arbitrator selected in accordance with the AAA's rules. The seat of arbitration shall be in the State of Wyoming. The language of arbitration shall be English. The arbitrator shall have authority to award any remedies available at law or in equity, including temporary and permanent injunctive relief, specific performance, and declaratory judgment. The arbitrator's award shall be final and binding and may be entered as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction.
Exceptions to Arbitration: Either party may seek emergency injunctive or other equitable relief from a court of competent jurisdiction to prevent actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property rights, trade secrets, or confidential information, without first engaging in informal resolution or arbitration. Either party may also bring actions that are within the scope of a small claims court's jurisdiction.
Arbitration Costs: The AAA's filing fees shall be allocated as provided in the AAA's fee schedule. Each party shall bear its own attorneys' fees in arbitration unless the arbitrator finds that a party's claim or defense was frivolous or brought in bad faith, in which case the arbitrator may award reasonable attorneys' fees and costs to the prevailing party.
Confidentiality: All aspects of the arbitration proceedings, including the existence of the arbitration, the proceedings, evidence, arguments, briefs, the arbitrator's award, and any judgment entered thereon, shall be maintained as confidential by both parties, except as may be necessary to enforce the award or as required by applicable law.
Class Action and Jury Trial Waiver
CLASS ACTION WAIVER: YOU AND VALUEIN AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF, CLASS MEMBER, OR REPRESENTATIVE IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS ACTION, COLLECTIVE ACTION, CONSOLIDATED ACTION, REPRESENTATIVE ACTION, OR PRIVATE ATTORNEY GENERAL ACTION. THE ARBITRATOR MAY NOT CONSOLIDATE MORE THAN ONE PERSON'S CLAIMS AND MAY NOT OTHERWISE PRESIDE OVER ANY FORM OF A REPRESENTATIVE OR CLASS PROCEEDING. THIS WAIVER APPLIES TO CLASS ARBITRATION.
JURY TRIAL WAIVER: TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IF ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND VALUEIN IS RESOLVED IN COURT RATHER THAN IN ARBITRATION, BOTH YOU AND VALUEIN IRREVOCABLY WAIVE THE RIGHT TO A TRIAL BY JURY IN ANY ACTION, PROCEEDING, OR COUNTERCLAIM ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO THESE TERMS OR THE SERVICE.
Severability of Waiver: If a court of competent jurisdiction finds the class action waiver in this section to be unenforceable as to a particular claim or request for relief (such as a request for public injunctive relief), then that particular claim or request for relief shall be severed from the arbitration and may be litigated in court, and the remaining claims shall continue to be arbitrated.
Changes to Terms
We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. We will update the "Last Updated" date at the top of this page when changes are made. For material changes — changes that reduce your rights, increase your obligations, or change the dispute resolution process — we will notify registered users by email at least 30 days before the changes take effect. Non-material changes (such as clarifications, formatting corrections, or additions of new sections that do not reduce your existing rights) may be made without advance notice.
Your continued use of the Service after the effective date of revised Terms constitutes your acceptance of the changes. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the Service and may cancel your subscription before the changes take effect.
General Provisions
Notices: All legal notices under these Terms must be in writing and delivered by email. Notices to Valuein must be sent to [email protected]. Notices to you will be sent to the email address associated with your account. Notices are deemed received on the date the email is sent, provided the sender does not receive a delivery failure notification. Either party may update its notice address by providing written notice to the other party.
Relationship of the Parties: The relationship between Valuein and you is that of independent parties. Nothing in these Terms creates a partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise, or agency relationship between you and Valuein. Neither party has the authority to bind, commit, or represent the other party in any manner.
No Third-Party Beneficiaries: These Terms are for the sole benefit of Valuein and you. No third party (including your end users, clients, or investors) has any rights under these Terms, whether as a third-party beneficiary or otherwise, except to the extent expressly stated in the indemnification section.
Government Users: If you are a U.S. federal, state, or local government entity or agency, the Service is provided as a "commercial item" as defined in 48 C.F.R. Section 2.101, consisting of "commercial computer software" and "commercial computer software documentation" as those terms are used in 48 C.F.R. Section 12.212 (for civilian agencies) and 48 C.F.R. Section 227.7202 (for Department of Defense). The government's rights to the Service are limited to those specifically granted in these Terms.
Severability: If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court or arbitrator of competent jurisdiction, that provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it enforceable, or severed if modification is not possible. The invalidity of any provision shall not affect the validity or enforceability of the remaining provisions, which shall continue in full force and effect.
No Waiver: Valuein's failure or delay in enforcing any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of that right or provision. A waiver of any breach shall not constitute a waiver of any subsequent or prior breach. No waiver shall be effective unless made in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Valuein.
Assignment: You may not assign, transfer, or delegate your rights, obligations, or account under these Terms without Valuein's prior written consent. Any purported assignment in violation of this section is void. Valuein may assign these Terms, in whole or in part, without your consent, in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, or sale of all or substantially all of its assets, provided the assignee assumes Valuein's obligations hereunder.
Headings: Section headings are for convenience of reference only and shall not affect the interpretation of these Terms.
Construction: These Terms shall not be construed against the drafter. The words "including," "includes," and "include" mean "including, without limitation."
Cumulative Remedies: Except where expressly stated otherwise (such as the SLA Sole Remedy provision), all remedies available under these Terms are cumulative and in addition to, not in lieu of, any other remedies available at law or in equity.
Entire Agreement: These Terms, together with the Privacy Policy, Data License Agreement, and Service Level Agreement (where applicable), constitute the entire agreement between you and Valuein regarding the Service and supersede all prior and contemporaneous agreements, representations, understandings, and communications of any kind, whether oral or written.
