Terms of Service
These terms govern your use of the ThreatWatch Community plan, a hosted service. By creating an account, you agree to them.
The service
ThreatWatch Community is a free, hosted instance of the ThreatWatch threat intelligence platform. We host, back up, and maintain it — you don't need to install or manage anything. The underlying software is proprietary; these terms do not grant you rights to the source code, and self-hosting is not part of the Community plan.
Your account
- You're responsible for the accuracy of the information you provide and for keeping your credentials secure.
- You're responsible for the content your organization ingests, creates, and publishes (indicators, cases, reports, notes).
- Admins are responsible for setting appropriate TLP clearance and access levels for members of their organization.
Acceptable use
You agree not to use ThreatWatch to:
- Attack, disrupt, or gain unauthorized access to systems you don't own or have permission to test.
- Ingest or distribute data you don't have the right to use (e.g. threat-feed data in violation of its provider's terms).
- Abuse shared infrastructure — excessive automated load, attempts to circumvent rate limits, or actions that degrade the service for other organizations.
- Violate applicable law.
We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms.
Third-party integrations
Threat-feed and AI-provider integrations you configure are subject to those providers' own terms and rate limits. We aren't responsible for the accuracy, availability, or licensing of third-party feed data.
Availability
The Community plan is provided on a best-effort, "as is" basis with no uptime guarantee. Check the status page for current service health. We may change or discontinue features of the Community plan with reasonable notice.
Data ownership
You retain ownership of the intelligence content your organization creates. We don't claim ownership of it, and we use it only to operate the service as described in the Privacy Policy.
Limitation of liability
ThreatWatch is provided without warranty of any kind. To the maximum extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, or consequential damages arising from your use of the service, including decisions made based on intelligence data it surfaces.
Changes
We may update these terms as the product evolves. Continued use of the service after a change constitutes acceptance of the updated terms.
