Website
Terms of Use.

1.1 The agreement.

These Website Terms of Use (“Terms”) are between you and Humming Arms LLC (“Humming Arms”, “we”, “us” or “our”). They govern your access to and use of this website and the public text, graphics, demonstrations and other materials made available through it (together, the “Site”). By using the Site, you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, do not use the Site.

1.2 Product agreements control.

These Terms do not grant access to, or govern use of, the Humming Arms product. Product use, including design-partner testing, evaluations and other pre-release access, requires a separate written agreement. That agreement controls product use and prevails over these Terms on any conflict relating to the product. The product is not generally available; the Site does not grant an entitlement to access, support or any release.

1.3 Privacy.

Our Privacy Policy explains the handling of information associated with the Site. It is a separate notice and does not expand the product rights granted by these Terms.

2.1 Changes to the Terms.

We may revise these Terms by posting an updated version and effective date on this page. Changes apply prospectively from that date. For material changes, we will provide a reasonably prominent notice on the Site before they take effect where practicable, and any notice required by law. Your continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance to the extent permitted by law. If you disagree, stop using the Site.

2.2 Changes to the Site.

We may change, suspend or discontinue any part of the Site, or restrict access for maintenance, security, misuse or other business reasons, without an obligation to preserve content or provide continued availability. This does not change obligations under a separate written agreement or rights that cannot lawfully be excluded.

3.1 Legal capacity.

You must have reached the age of majority where you live and have legal capacity to enter into these Terms. The Site is intended for professional and business use. Do not use it where access or use is prohibited by applicable law.

3.2 Acting for an organization.

If you use the Site on behalf of an organization, you represent that you are authorized to bind it, and “you” includes both you and that organization. You are responsible for your use and for use you authorize on its behalf. Nothing in these Terms excludes mandatory rights that apply to you despite the Site’s business purpose.

4.1 Ownership.

Except for materials subject to separate licences or third-party rights, Humming Arms and its licensors retain all rights in the Site, including its content, design, graphics, demonstrations and associated intellectual property. The Humming Arms name, logos and other marks are protected. No trademark licence, endorsement or right to suggest affiliation is granted.

4.2 Limited permission.

Subject to these Terms, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable permission to access and view the Site and to print or save reasonable excerpts for your personal or internal business reference. Preserve copyright, trademark and other notices. Apart from this permission, applicable law or a separate licence, you may not reproduce, modify, republish, distribute, sell or commercially exploit Site content without our prior written permission. All rights not expressly granted are reserved.

5.1 Separate licences.

Open-source software components are governed by their own applicable licences, including their notices, conditions and disclaimers. The Humming Arms licensing boundary is Apache-2.0 outside ee/; software in ee/ is governed by its commercial licence. These Terms do not override those licences or restrict rights they expressly grant. A description of software on the Site does not grant a commercial licence or establish that a component is available for use.

6.1 Prohibited conduct.

You must not use the Site to violate applicable law or others’ rights. In particular, you must not:

• Scrape, crawl, harvest or make automated requests at a volume or in a manner that burdens, degrades or disrupts the Site or evades reasonable rate limits.
• Bypass access restrictions, authentication or security controls; access non-public systems or data without authorization; introduce malicious code; or interfere with the Site’s operation, except for research expressly authorized by section 7.
• Impersonate another person, misrepresent your identity or affiliation, make misleading claims about Humming Arms, or imply our approval of your activities.
• Use Site content to train, fine-tune or otherwise develop machine-learning models, or create datasets for that purpose, without our prior written permission, except where an applicable software licence or non-waivable law permits it.
• Remove rights notices, infringe intellectual property, or collect or disclose personal information without lawful authority.

6.2 Boundaries.

Permission for search indexing, a public URL or a permissive crawler directive does not itself grant a licence for model training or another use prohibited here. Nothing in this section limits rights granted under section 5 or the good-faith research safe harbour in section 7.

7.1 Authorization and our commitment.

We welcome good-faith security research intended to identify and help remediate vulnerabilities. Research that follows this section and our disclosure process at /security/ is authorized within Humming Arms’ authority. We will not pursue or support legal action against you for research that complies with these rules. This permission takes precedence over restrictions in section 6 to the extent necessary for compliant research. It is not withdrawn retroactively for research conducted in compliance with the rules in effect at the time.

7.2 Scope and consent.

Test only Humming Arms systems that we have authority to authorize, or systems you own or have explicit permission to test. Use your own test environments and data wherever possible. A customer’s deployment, a visitor’s browser and a third-party service are outside this permission unless their owner separately authorizes testing. If ownership, scope or a method is uncertain, ask [email protected] before proceeding. We cannot authorize activity against third parties or bind them or public authorities.

7.3 Protect data and availability.

Use the minimum testing necessary to demonstrate a vulnerability. Do not destroy, delete, alter or corrupt data; access, copy, retain or disclose other people’s personal, confidential or credential information; disrupt or degrade services; perform denial-of-service or high-volume testing; deploy malware or persistence; pivot into other systems; or use social engineering, phishing, impersonation or physical intrusion. Do not exploit a finding for gain, extort payment or use it for purposes other than good-faith investigation and remediation.

7.4 Stop and report.

If you encounter sensitive data, credentials, unexpected access or potential disruption, stop the relevant testing immediately and report what happened promptly. Do not explore further, extract the data or include it in a report. Retain only a minimal, redacted proof of concept that does not expose others’ information. Follow our instructions for securely removing any sensitive information inadvertently obtained; do not alter source systems to remove it.

7.5 Coordinate disclosure.

Report findings promptly to the security address above using the process on /security/. Include the affected system or version, reproducible steps, expected and observed behavior, likely impact and a contact method. Keep vulnerability details and non-public information confidential until a fix is available and we have coordinated disclosure with you. We will work with you toward remediation and a responsible disclosure date. If progress stalls, contact us to agree next steps rather than publish an unresolved exploit or sensitive data.

7.6 Clarification and limits.

Contact us before continuing if you are unsure whether an action is permitted. An accidental boundary crossing does not itself end the safe harbour if you promptly stop, report it, minimize harm and follow these rules thereafter; deliberate or repeated violations are outside it. This safe harbour does not promise payment, a bounty, a response deadline or immunity from laws we cannot waive. If a third party takes action over compliant research, we will make our authorization known, subject to legal restrictions.

8.1 Future statements.

Product descriptions, future features, roadmaps, targets, estimates and other forward-looking statements reflect intentions or expectations and are subject to uncertainty. They are not commitments, warranties, an offer to supply, or a promise of delivery, capability or results. Availability, features, specifications and pricing may change or be withdrawn. An estimate is not a measured result, and a target is not an achieved outcome. Make purchasing and deployment decisions only on the basis of your separate written agreement and your own evaluation.

8.2 No professional advice or assurance.

Nothing on the Site is legal, compliance, security or other professional advice. Site materials and demonstrations do not certify your environment, establish regulatory compliance, guarantee complete action coverage or promise prevention of every incident. You remain responsible for your own risk assessment, independent verification and appropriate professional advice. Nothing in this section excludes liability for fraudulent misrepresentation or another right that cannot lawfully be excluded.

9.1 Permission to use.

If you voluntarily provide suggestions, ideas or other feedback about the Site or Humming Arms, you grant us a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, transferable, sublicensable, royalty-free licence to use, reproduce, modify, distribute and otherwise exploit that feedback for any purpose without attribution or payment. You represent that you have the rights to grant this licence. Do not submit confidential information or material you are not authorized to share.

9.2 Separate protections.

Feedback creates no obligation to implement it or keep it confidential. This section does not override a separate written confidentiality agreement, our Privacy Policy or the coordinated disclosure obligations for security reports in section 7.

10.1 Independent resources.

The Site may refer or link to third-party resources. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content, accuracy, availability, security or practices. A reference or link does not imply endorsement. Your use of third-party resources is at your own discretion and subject to their applicable terms and privacy notices.

10.2 Website hosting.

The Site is hosted on Cloudflare Pages. Our host processes standard request data to serve and protect the Site, as described in our Privacy Policy. Naming the host does not make its services part of a product agreement or create a service commitment.

13.1 Your responsibility.

To the extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify and hold harmless Humming Arms and its officers, employees and representatives from third-party claims, and resulting damages, liabilities and reasonable legal costs, arising from your unlawful use of the Site, material breach of these Terms or infringement of another person’s rights. This does not apply to research protected by section 7 or to the extent a claim results from our own breach, negligence or willful misconduct.

13.2 Handling a claim.

We will give you prompt notice of a claim and reasonable cooperation at your expense. A delay in notice reduces your obligation only to the extent it materially prejudices your defense. You may control the defense using reasonably acceptable counsel; we may participate at our own expense. You must not settle a claim that admits fault by us, imposes an obligation on us or fails to release us without our prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld.

14.1 Compliance.

You must comply with export-control, trade and sanctions laws applicable to your access to or use of the Site and its materials. You must not access, transfer or use restricted materials in violation of those laws, including for prohibited destinations, persons or end uses. You represent that your use is not prohibited by applicable sanctions. These Terms do not grant an export licence or authorize a transfer otherwise restricted by law.

15.1 Governing law and venue.

These Terms and disputes arising out of or relating to the Site or these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Colorado, United States, excluding conflict-of-laws rules. Except as provided in section 15.6 and subject to mandatory applicable law, any such dispute must be brought exclusively in the state and federal courts located in Denver, Colorado. You and Humming Arms consent to personal jurisdiction in those courts. Nothing in this section removes a mandatory right to another law, forum or remedy.

15.2 Court resolution and informal contact.

These Terms do not require mandatory arbitration. Either party may bring a claim in court under this section. Please contact us using section 17 so we can try to resolve a concern. Informal contact is encouraged but is not a prerequisite to bringing a claim, does not suspend a limitation period and does not restrict either party from seeking urgent relief.

15.6 Injunctive relief.

Either party may seek temporary, preliminary or permanent injunctive relief for misuse of intellectual property or security abuse in any court of competent jurisdiction. This exception concerns the court in which that relief may be sought; it does not authorize action against research protected by section 7 or remove any non-waivable right.

15.7 Safe harbour and mandatory rights.

The authorization and commitment not to pursue or support legal action for compliant security research in section 7 survive termination of Site use. Nothing in this section, including either waiver, the contractual limitation period or the injunctive-relief exception, overrides that safe harbour. Nothing in these Terms excludes, waives or limits consumer rights or remedies that applicable law makes non-waivable. Any restriction in this section applies only to the extent the law permits it.

16.1 Severability and no waiver.

Subject to the specific severability provisions for each waiver in section 15, if a provision is held invalid or unenforceable, it will be limited to the minimum extent needed, where lawful, and the remaining provisions will continue in effect. Failure or delay to enforce a provision is not a waiver. A waiver must be explicit and applies only to the matter stated.

16.2 Assignment.

You may not assign these Terms or transfer your permissions without our prior written consent. We may assign these Terms in connection with a merger, reorganization, sale of relevant assets or by operation of law, subject to applicable law. These Terms bind permitted successors and assigns.

16.3 Entire agreement and interpretation.

These Terms are the entire agreement concerning your use of the Site and supersede earlier understandings on that subject. They do not replace separate software licences or written product or confidentiality agreements. Headings and plain-English summaries aid reading but do not alter the legal text. No partnership, agency or employment relationship is created. Provisions that by their nature should survive termination, including ownership, feedback permissions, the security research safe harbour, disclaimers, liability limits, indemnity and dispute provisions, survive to the extent applicable.

17.1 Legal contact.

Questions about these Terms and legal notices should be sent by email to [email protected]. Identify the Site, explain your concern and include a reply address. Unless applicable law requires another method, notices to us take effect when received; sending an email alone does not establish receipt.

17.2 Other matters and notices to you.

For privacy questions, email [email protected]. For security findings, use the security contact and process in section 7. We may give general Site notices by posting them here and, where we have your email address for the relevant matter, send individual notices by email, subject to any mandatory notice requirements. These notice methods do not replace formal service of legal process required by law.
