These Terms of Use (the “Terms”) govern your access to and use of the Website (as defined below) and are entered into between Boundless Networks, Inc. (“Boundless,” “we,” or “us”) and you (“you” or “User”).
Boundless Networks, Inc. is an artificial intelligence infrastructure company. The Website is our marketing and informational site. By accessing or using the Website, you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Terms, on your own behalf and on behalf of any organization for which you act, and you represent that you have the authority to bind that organization. If you do not agree to these Terms, do not access or use the Website.
Boundless’s Privacy Policy, available at boundless.network/privacy-policy, is incorporated into these Terms by reference and describes how Boundless collects and uses personal data, including any email address you submit to request early access.
IMPORTANT NOTICE REGARDING ARBITRATION: WHEN YOU AGREE TO THESE TERMS YOU ARE AGREEING (WITH LIMITED EXCEPTION) TO RESOLVE ANY DISPUTE BETWEEN YOU AND BOUNDLESS THROUGH BINDING, INDIVIDUAL ARBITRATION RATHER THAN IN COURT. PLEASE REVIEW CAREFULLY SECTION 9 BELOW.
1. What these Terms cover, and what they do not
1.1 The Website
“Website” means www.boundless.network and the pages and subdomains operated by Boundless Networks, Inc. that link to these Terms.
1.2 The inference services are governed by their own terms
The Website describes and links to the Boundless Platform which includes but is not limited to the console, APIs, and documentation at inference.boundless.network. Access to and use of those offerings, including any purchase of credits, creation of an account or API key, and any submission of content to or receipt of content from the models served, are governed exclusively by the Boundless Platform Customer Terms available at inference.boundless.network/terms, and not by these Terms. Rates, model availability, and product descriptions shown on the Website are informational, may change, and do not constitute an offer or commitment of availability; the Boundless Platform Customer Terms and the then-current rate card govern.
1.3 The protocol, ZKC, and the explorer are the Foundation’s
The Boundless protocol is a decentralized, open-source protocol that Boundless Networks, Inc. does not own, control, or operate. It is stewarded by the Boundless Foundation. The network explorer at explorer.boundless.network, the Foundation’s website at boundlessfdn.org, and any interaction with the Boundless protocol or the ZKC token are governed by the Boundless Foundation Terms of Use available at boundlessfdn.org/terms-of-use, and not by these Terms. Boundless Networks, Inc. does not offer, sell, or facilitate the purchase or sale of ZKC or any other token or digital asset, and nothing on the Website is investment, financial, legal, or tax advice, or an offer, solicitation, or recommendation to buy, sell, or hold any security, token, or digital asset.

3. Intellectual property
The Website and its content (excluding open-source software and third-party materials) are the property of Boundless or its licensors, and all trademark and other intellectual property rights in them are the exclusive property of Boundless or its licensors. Website content may be used only in connection with your use of the Website and may not otherwise be downloaded, copied, reproduced, distributed, transmitted, broadcast, sold, licensed, or used for any other purpose without Boundless’s prior written consent. Portions of the software available through or referenced on the Website are open-source software licensed under their respective licenses; nothing in these Terms limits your rights, or imposes obligations on you, under any applicable open-source license, and that license governs in the event of a conflict as to that software.
4. Third-party links
The Website may contain links to third-party websites, products, or services, which are provided for convenience only. They are not under Boundless’s control, are not part of the Website, and their availability does not constitute an endorsement. If you access them, your activity is governed by their terms, not these Terms.
5. Changes
Boundless reserves the right, at its sole discretion, to change or modify portions of these Terms at any time. Boundless will post the changes on this page and will indicate at the top of this page the date these Terms were last revised. Your continued use of the Website after the date any such changes become effective constitutes your acceptance of the new Terms. Boundless may also change, suspend, or discontinue the Website or any part of it at any time without notice.
6. No warranties
The Website is provided on an “as is” and “as available” basis with faults and without warranty of any kind. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Boundless disclaims all warranties, whether express, implied, or statutory, including all implied warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, title, and noninfringement, and any warranty that the Website will be accurate, complete, error-free, uninterrupted, or available at all times.
7. Indemnity
You will indemnify and hold harmless Boundless, its affiliates and third-party providers, and their respective officers, directors, employees, and agents (together, the “Released Parties”), from and against any claims, disputes, demands, liabilities, damages, losses, and costs and expenses, including reasonable legal and accounting fees, arising out of or in any way connected with (i) your access to or use of the Website, or (ii) your violation or alleged violation of these Terms. You also release the Released Parties from any and all liability, claims, causes of action, or damages arising from or in any way relating to your use of the Website.
8. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Boundless shall not have any liability for any damages, losses, costs, or expenses (including attorneys’ fees), whether direct, indirect, special, incidental, consequential, punitive, or otherwise of any kind (including any loss of revenue, profits, contracts, business, opportunity, goodwill, or reputation, or loss of, damage to, or corruption of data), arising under or related to these Terms or the Website, under any cause of action whatsoever. To the extent applicable law does not permit the full exclusion of liability set forth above, Boundless’s total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Website will not exceed one hundred United States dollars (US$100). Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain warranties or damages, so some of the above exclusions and limitations may not apply to you; in that case they apply to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.
9. Dispute resolution; governing law
In the event that a dispute is not settled amicably, then either party may, by notice in writing to the other party, request a mediation to be administered by a neutral party acceptable to both parties. If the parties are unable to agree on the identity of a mediator within 14 days from the delivery of such notice, then any dispute not resolved in accordance with this Section shall be referred to and finally resolved by arbitration administered by JAMS in accordance with its then-current Streamlined Arbitration Rules & Procedures. Judgment upon the award rendered may be entered in any court having jurisdiction thereof. The seat of the arbitration shall be San Francisco, California or, at the election of either party, virtual. The Tribunal shall consist of one (1) arbitrator appointed in accordance with the rules. The language of the arbitration shall be English. The costs of the arbitration, including the parties’ attorneys’ fees and expenses, shall be paid at the discretion of and pursuant to the decision of the arbitrator. This agreement to arbitrate is governed by the Federal Arbitration Act, 9 U.S.C. §§ 1 et seq.
YOU HEREBY WAIVE ANY CONSTITUTIONAL AND STATUTORY RIGHTS TO SUE IN COURT AND HAVE A TRIAL IN FRONT OF A JUDGE OR A JURY. ALL DISPUTES, CLAIMS, AND REQUESTS FOR RELIEF WITHIN THE SCOPE OF THIS ARBITRATION AGREEMENT MUST BE ARBITRATED ON AN INDIVIDUAL BASIS AND NOT ON A CLASS OR COLLECTIVE BASIS, AND ONLY INDIVIDUAL RELIEF IS AVAILABLE.
If a decision is issued stating that applicable law precludes enforcement of any of this Section’s limitations as to a given dispute, claim, or request for relief, then such aspect must be severed from the arbitration and brought into the courts located in San Francisco, California. All other disputes, claims, or requests for relief shall be arbitrated.
These Terms and any action related thereto will be governed by the laws of California.
10. General
Boundless may provide notices under these Terms using commercially reasonable means, including posting to the Website, effective upon posting. Boundless may freely assign, transfer, or delegate its rights and obligations under these Terms; you may not assign or delegate yours without Boundless’s prior written consent. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid, the remaining provisions remain valid, and the parties shall endeavor to substitute a provision that best reflects their economic intentions. No failure or delay in exercising any right is a waiver of it, and a waiver is effective only in writing and in the specific instance given. These Terms survive the termination of your relationship with us. Force majeure: Boundless shall not incur any liability for nonperformance caused by any occurrence not within its control, including acts of any Governmental Authority, acts of God, war, or terrorism, or the unavailability, disruption, or malfunction of the Internet or the Website, and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to resume performance as soon as reasonably practicable.
