Terms of Service
1. Acceptance of Terms
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the software products and services ("Services") provided by Zaks.io LLC ("we", "us", "our"), a California limited liability company based in San Diego, CA.
By accessing or using our Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use our Services. You must be at least 18 years old or the age of majority in your jurisdiction to use the Services. If you are using the Services on behalf of an organization, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
2. Service Description
Zaks.io LLC operates developer tools for AI infrastructure. Our current products include:
- Trace Flow — an LLM observability proxy that captures metadata, costs, and request/response data from LLM API calls with zero added latency.
- Neuron — an AI chat platform with task scheduling and multi-provider LLM access.
Additional products may be introduced. Each product may have supplemental terms that apply in addition to these Terms. Where product-specific terms conflict with these Terms, the product-specific terms govern for that product.
Our Services are under active development. Features, pricing, and availability may change. We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Services at any time with reasonable notice.
3. Account Registration
To use certain features, you must create an account. You agree to provide accurate and complete information, maintain the security of your account credentials, and promptly notify us at support@zaks.io if you suspect unauthorized access. You are responsible for all activity under your account.
4. Billing and Payment
Paid Services are billed on a monthly subscription basis and processed through Stripe. Subscriptions auto-renew unless cancelled before the end of the current billing period.
- If a payment fails, we may provide a grace period before suspending access.
- No refunds are issued for partial months of use.
- We will provide at least 30 days' written notice before any price changes take effect.
- Usage-based credits (such as Trace Packs) are non-refundable and expire at the end of each billing period.
By providing payment information, you authorize Stripe to charge the applicable fees. Stripe's terms of service apply to payment processing.
5. Your Data
You retain ownership of all data you submit to or generate through the Services ("Your Data"). We do not claim ownership of Your Data.
If you use Trace Flow, LLM prompts and responses routed through the proxy may contain sensitive information including personally identifiable information, proprietary code, or trade secrets. You are solely responsible for ensuring that data you send through the Services complies with applicable laws and regulations. Do not send regulated data (e.g., PHI, financial PII) through the Services unless you accept the associated risk.
For details on how we handle Your Data, see our Privacy Policy.
6. API Credentials in Transit
Trace Flow passes your LLM provider API keys through to upstream providers to authenticate requests on your behalf. Your API keys are not stored by Trace Flow — they transit the proxy and are forwarded directly to the provider.
You provide API credentials at your own risk. You are responsible for all activity conducted using credentials associated with your account. We are not responsible for unauthorized access, credential leakage, or misuse of your API keys.
7. Acceptable Use
You agree not to:
- Attempt to access another user's or organization's data
- Reverse engineer, scrape, or overload the Services
- Use the Services for any unlawful purpose
- Redistribute access credentials
- Circumvent billing controls, rate limits, or usage restrictions
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms, with or without notice.
8. Intellectual Property
Zaks.io LLC owns all rights, title, and interest in the Services, including all software, design, trademarks, and documentation. You may not copy, modify, distribute, or reverse engineer any part of the platform.
You retain all rights to Your Data, including any prompts, configurations, and specifications you provide.
9. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE. THERE IS NO SERVICE LEVEL AGREEMENT. USE THE SERVICES AT YOUR OWN RISK.
10. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, ZAKS.IO LLC SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR REVENUE, WHETHER INCURRED DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY, ARISING FROM YOUR USE OF THE SERVICES. OUR TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING FROM OR RELATED TO THE SERVICES SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL FEES PAID BY YOU TO US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Zaks.io LLC and its officers, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or related to: (a) your use or misuse of the Services; (b) your violation of these Terms; (c) your violation of any third-party rights; or (d) any data or content you transmit through the Services.
12. Termination
We may suspend or terminate your access at any time for violation of these Terms, non-payment, or at our reasonable discretion with notice. You may stop using the Services at any time (see our Cancellation Policy).
Upon termination, your data will be retained for 30 days, after which it will be permanently deleted. If you need to export your data, do so before your access expires.
The following sections survive termination: Disclaimer of Warranties, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification, Intellectual Property, and Governing Law.
13. Governing Law and Dispute Resolution
These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.
Any dispute arising from or relating to these Terms or the Services shall be resolved by binding arbitration administered under the rules of JAMS in San Diego County, California. Either party may bring qualifying claims in small claims court as an alternative to arbitration.
You agree to resolve disputes on an individual basis and waive any right to participate in a class action, class arbitration, or representative proceeding.
14. Changes to Terms
We may update these Terms at any time. For material changes, we will provide at least 30 days' notice via email to your account address. Continued use of the Services after the effective date of changes constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
15. General Provisions
These Terms constitute the entire agreement between you and Zaks.io LLC regarding the Services, superseding any prior agreements. If any provision is found to be unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain in full force. Our failure to enforce any right or provision does not constitute a waiver. Neither party shall be liable for delays or failures caused by events beyond reasonable control (force majeure).
