Your access to and use of the Service is conditioned on your acceptance of and compliance with these Terms.

These Terms apply to all visitors, users, and others who access or use the Service.

Screenshots and Collected Data Responsibility

All screenshots, data, and information generated and collected by Squidler in connection with your use of the Service ("Screenshots and Collected Data") are the property of Squidler. You acknowledge and agree that Squidler retains all rights, title, and interest in and to the Screenshots and Collected Data, and that you have no rights to the Screenshots and Collected Data other than as expressly granted by these Terms.

As a user or subscriber of our Service, you are responsible for ensuring that the content displayed and captured in the Screenshots and Collected Data does not violate any laws or regulations, including but not limited to those relating to copyright, intellectual property rights, privacy, and data protection. You assume all legal responsibility and potential liability for such content and its compliance with the relevant laws and regulations.

Permitted Use of the Service

You agree to only use the Service for testing websites for which you have the legal right and permission to test. You are strictly prohibited from using the Service to test websites without the express consent of the website owner.

You acknowledge and agree that Squidler retains all rights, title, and interest in and to the Test Data and Screenshots and Collected Data, and that you have no rights to these other than as expressly granted by these Terms.

Public Check Feature

Squidler.io offers a "Public Check" feature, which allows visitors, who are not subscribed to our Service, to perform limited checks on websites. Use of this feature is subject to the following conditions:

You may only use the Public Check feature to test websites for which you have obtained the necessary legal rights and permissions from the website owner or publisher. Testing of websites without express consent from the owner or publisher is strictly prohibited.

By using the Public Check feature, you confirm that you have obtained the necessary rights and permissions, and you assume all liability for any breach of this condition. Squidler.io reserves the right to suspend or terminate your access to the Public Check feature and the Service if we discover that you have breached this condition.

The test data generated through the use of the Public Check feature ("Public Check Test Data") is the property of Squidler.io. As with all other Test Data, Squidler.io retains all rights, title, and interest in and to the Public Check Test Data, and you are granted no rights to this data other than those expressly provided for in these Terms of Service.

Any abuse or misuse of the Public Check feature, as determined by Squidler.io in its sole discretion, may result in immediate suspension or termination of your access to the Public Check feature and the Service, without prior notice. You agree to use the Public Check feature responsibly, in accordance with these Terms of Service and all applicable laws and regulations.

Subscription and Cancellation

When you subscribe to our Service, you agree to pay the applicable subscription fee for the selected plan. Upon cancellation of your subscription, you will continue to have access to the Service for the remaining period that you have already paid for, but you will not be granted access beyond this period.

Test Runs Allocation

As a subscriber, you will receive one test run each day of the month, totalling 28, 29 (in the case of February during a leap year), 30, or 31 test runs, depending on the number of days in the month. In addition, you will be granted 30 test runs that you can manually initiate during the month. Unused manual test runs will not carry over to the following month and will be forfeited at the end of each month. You may use these test runs at your discretion, subject to any limits or restrictions specified in your subscription plan.

Changes to Terms of Service

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to modify or replace these Terms at any time. If a revision is material, we will try to provide at least 30 days' notice prior to any new terms taking effect. What constitutes a material change will be determined at our sole discretion. By continuing to access or use our Service after those revisions become effective, you agree to be bound by the revised terms. If you do not agree to the new terms, please stop using the Service.

Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed and construed in accordance with the laws of Sweden, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Our failure to enforce any right or provision of these Terms will not be considered a waiver of those rights. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable by a court, the remaining provisions of these Terms will remain in effect. These Terms constitute the entire agreement between us regarding our Service, and supersede and replace any prior agreements we might have between us regarding the Service.

Sharing Customer Data with Third-Party Providers

In order to provide and improve the Service, we may need to share certain customer data with our third-party providers who are necessary for the functioning of the Service. By using the Service, you agree to allow us to share your data with these third-party providers for the purpose of delivering the Service to you. However, we will not sell your personal information or data to any third party. We will take reasonable steps to ensure that any data shared with third-party providers is protected and used only for the intended purpose of providing and improving the Service.
