These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the FoundryNet API, MCP server, and related services ("Services") provided by Foundry Labs ("FoundryNet," "we," "us," or "our"). By accessing or using the Services, you agree to be bound by these Terms.
FoundryNet provides an API for industrial machine telemetry normalization, automation trigger management, machine identity provisioning, and on-chain data settlement. The Services are provided "as is" and "as available."
To use the Services, you must register for an API key and provide a valid payment method. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your API key and for all activities that occur under your account. You must notify us immediately of any unauthorized use.
API keys are non-transferable. We reserve the right to suspend or revoke API keys that violate these Terms or are used in a manner that degrades Service performance for other users.
You agree not to:
- Use the Services for any unlawful purpose or in violation of any applicable laws or regulations.
- Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Services, other accounts, or systems connected to the Services.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any portion of the Services.
- Use the Services to transmit malicious code or interfere with the integrity of the Services.
- Exceed reasonable rate limits or abuse the API in a manner that degrades service for others.
- Resell or redistribute access to the Services without our prior written consent.
- Use the Services to make safety-critical, life-safety, or autonomous control decisions without independent verification and human oversight.
You retain ownership of all data you submit to the Services ("Your Data"). By submitting data, you grant us a limited license to process, normalize, store, and analyze Your Data solely for the purpose of providing the Services.
We do not sell Your Data to third parties. Normalized and aggregated data may be used to improve the FoundryNet Canonical Schema (FCS) mapping corpus. Individual machine telemetry is not shared across accounts.
See our Privacy Policy below for full details on data handling.
The Services include optional settlement of data hashes on the Solana blockchain via the MINT Protocol. On-chain transactions are irreversible by design. Settlement creates a cryptographic proof of data at a point in time; it does not constitute a warranty, certification, or endorsement of the underlying data's accuracy.
FoundryNet is not responsible for the performance, availability, or security of the Solana blockchain or any third-party blockchain infrastructure.
The Services are billed on a usage-based model via Stripe. You agree to pay all charges incurred under your account at the rates in effect when the usage occurred. Current pricing is published on foundrynet.io and may be updated with 30 days' notice.
All fees are non-refundable except as required by law. Failure to pay may result in suspension of your API key and account.
The Services, including the FoundryNet Canonical Schema (FCS), the MINT Protocol, the normalization engine, and all associated software, are the intellectual property of Foundry Labs. These Terms do not grant you any rights to our intellectual property except the limited right to use the Services as described herein.
The FCS canonical field vocabulary and mapping corpus are proprietary. You may not extract, replicate, or create derivative works from the mapping corpus.
THE SERVICES ARE PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
FOUNDRYNET DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICES WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, OR SECURE. FOUNDRYNET DOES NOT WARRANT THE ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, OR RELIABILITY OF ANY DATA NORMALIZATION, SCORING, OR TRIGGER EVALUATION PERFORMED BY THE SERVICES.
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, FOUNDRYNET SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, PRODUCTION, REVENUE, OR BUSINESS OPPORTUNITIES, WHETHER BASED ON WARRANTY, CONTRACT, TORT, OR ANY OTHER LEGAL THEORY.
FOUNDRYNET'S TOTAL CUMULATIVE LIABILITY SHALL NOT EXCEED THE AMOUNTS PAID BY YOU TO FOUNDRYNET IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
The Services provide data normalization, monitoring, and automation tools for industrial equipment. THE SERVICES ARE NOT INTENDED AND SHALL NOT BE USED AS THE SOLE BASIS FOR SAFETY-CRITICAL DECISIONS, MACHINE CONTROL, LIFE-SAFETY SYSTEMS, OR ANY APPLICATION WHERE FAILURE COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY, DEATH, OR SIGNIFICANT PROPERTY DAMAGE.
You are solely responsible for validating the accuracy of any data, alerts, or automations generated by the Services before acting on them in a production environment. Human oversight is required for all safety-critical operations.
You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless Foundry Labs and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from any claims, damages, losses, liabilities, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising from your use of the Services, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any rights of a third party.
Either party may terminate these Terms at any time. Upon termination, your right to use the Services ceases immediately. We may retain Your Data for a reasonable period to facilitate data export, after which it will be deleted. On-chain settlements are permanent and cannot be deleted.
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you of material changes via the email associated with your account at least 30 days before the changes take effect. Continued use of the Services after changes take effect constitutes acceptance of the updated Terms.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Nevada, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Washoe County, Nevada.
