These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you and NightOps, Inc. ("Company", "we", "us", or "our") concerning your access to and use of the NightOps website, dashboard, APIs, Slack integration, and related services (collectively, the "Service").

You represent and warrant that you are of legal age to form a binding contract with the Company. If you are accepting these Terms on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have the authority to bind such entity to these Terms.

Changes to Terms

We reserve the right to revise and update these Terms from time to time at our sole discretion. All changes are effective immediately when we post them and apply to all access to and use of the Service thereafter.

Your continued use of the Service following the posting of revised Terms means that you accept and agree to the changes. You are expected to check this page frequently so you are aware of any changes, as they are binding on you.

When you create an account, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.

If you connect NightOps to third-party services (cloud providers, Slack, etc.), you authorize us to access and interact with those services on your behalf according to the permissions you grant and the schedules you configure.

You may delete your account at any time through your dashboard settings. Upon deletion, we will remove your data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.
