Terms of Service
Last updated: July 14, 2026
These Terms of Service (“Terms”) are a legal agreement between you and Azul AI (“Azul AI,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) governing your use of our platform for hosting and training AI models (the “Service”). By creating an account or using the Service, you agree to these Terms and to our Privacy Policy. If you do not agree, do not use the Service.
1. Eligibility and Invite-Only Access
You must be at least 18 years old and able to form a binding contract to use the Service. Azul AI is currently offered as an invite-only beta. Access requires a valid invitation, is personal to you, and may be limited, suspended, or revoked at our discretion. You may not share your invitation or account access with others.
2. Beta Service
The Service is provided on a pre-release, “beta” basis. It may contain errors, may change significantly, and features may be added, modified, or removed at any time. We do not guarantee any level of availability, performance, or data durability during the beta. You are responsible for maintaining your own backups of datasets, models, and other important content.
3. Your Account
You must provide accurate information when registering and keep it current. You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us promptly at sblue@sanderblue.com if you suspect unauthorized use.
4. Your Content and Ownership
You retain all ownership rights in the datasets, documents, models, and other content you upload or create (“Your Content”). You grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to host, store, process, transmit, and display Your Content solely as needed to operate and provide the Service to you.
You represent that you have the necessary rights to Your Content and that it does not infringe or violate the rights of others or any law. You are solely responsible for Your Content and for the models and outputs you create with it.
5. Acceptable Use
You agree not to use the Service to:
- Violate any law or regulation, or infringe intellectual-property, privacy, or other rights.
- Upload content or train models intended to produce unlawful material, including child sexual abuse material, or to harass, defraud, or harm others.
- Upload malware or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Service, other accounts, or our systems.
- Disrupt or unduly burden the Service, or circumvent usage limits, security, or access controls.
- Reverse engineer, resell, or provide the Service to third parties except as expressly permitted.
We may investigate and take action, including suspension or termination, for any suspected violation.
6. Third-Party Services and Your Own Keys
The Service lets you connect your own third-party accounts and API keys (for example, Anthropic or Hugging Face). You are responsible for complying with those providers’ terms and for any usage or charges incurred on your accounts, including compute costs for cloud training billed to your Hugging Face account. We are not responsible for third-party services, and their availability or changes may affect the Service.
7. AI Models and Outputs
Machine-learning models and their outputs can be inaccurate, incomplete, biased, or otherwise unsuitable for a given purpose. You are responsible for evaluating and validating any model you train or deploy and any output it produces, and for how you use them. Outputs are not professional advice. You must not rely on the Service for decisions that require professional judgment without independent verification.
8. Fees and Billing
Some or all features may be free during the beta. If you purchase a paid plan, you authorize us and our payment processor to charge your selected payment method for the applicable fees, which are non-refundable except where required by law or expressly stated. We may change pricing prospectively with reasonable notice. You are responsible for any taxes and for third-party costs billed to your own provider accounts.
9. Our Intellectual Property
The Service, including its software, design, and branding, is owned by Azul AI and protected by intellectual-property laws. We grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the Service under these Terms. If you send us feedback or suggestions, you grant us the right to use them without restriction or obligation to you.
10. Termination
You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access at any time, with or without notice, if you violate these Terms, if we discontinue the Service or the beta, or otherwise at our discretion. On termination, your right to use the Service ends and we may delete Your Content in accordance with our Privacy Policy. Sections that by their nature should survive termination will survive.
11. Disclaimers
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, OR STATUTORY, INCLUDING IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, SECURE, ERROR-FREE, OR THAT DATA WILL NOT BE LOST.
12. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, AZUL AI WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, OR GOODWILL, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATING TO YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM RELATING TO THE SERVICE WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE THREE MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS (US$100). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so some of the above may not apply to you.
13. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless Azul AI and its personnel from any claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable legal fees) arising out of Your Content, your use of the Service, or your violation of these Terms or applicable law.
14. Governing Law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, United States, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. You agree to the exclusive jurisdiction of the courts located there for any dispute not subject to another agreed resolution process, to the extent permitted by law.
15. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms from time to time. When we do, we will revise the “Last updated” date above and, for material changes, provide additional notice where appropriate. Your continued use of the Service after an update means you accept the revised Terms.
