This policy protects URAPIS consumers, providers, and the marketplace API ecosystem from abuse, unsafe products, and unfair marketplace behavior.

Last updated: 12 May 2026

Prohibited activity

Users may not use URAPIS to harm systems, people, or legal compliance.

  • No malware, phishing, credential stuffing, spam, scraping that violates rights, or attempts to bypass rate limits and billing controls.
  • No APIs that primarily enable fraud, illegal gambling, unauthorized financial access, doxxing, cyber abuse, or unlawful surveillance.
  • No misleading pricing, fake uptime claims, hidden data sale, impersonation, or deceptive product listings.

Security expectations

Providers and consumers must follow reasonable security practices.

  • Providers must protect upstream credentials, validate inputs, document sensitive data handling, and respond to vulnerability reports.
  • Consumers must store API keys securely and must not expose keys in public repositories, client-side apps, or logs.
  • URAPIS may throttle, block, rotate, or revoke keys when abuse or compromise is suspected.

Enforcement

URAPIS can intervene when activity threatens marketplace trust.

  • Actions may include warning, delisting, temporary suspension, payment hold, key revocation, account termination, or legal escalation.
  • Where feasible, URAPIS will provide notice and a path to remediate, except for urgent security, fraud, or legal risks.
