Terms of Service

By accessing or using any services provided by DeepSweep, Inc. ("DeepSweep," "we," "our," or "us"), including our website at deepsweep.ai, our Visual Studio Code extension, command-line tools, APIs, and any associated software, documentation, or content (collectively, the "Services"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms").

If you are entering into these Terms on behalf of a company, organization, or other legal entity, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind such entity to these Terms. In that case, "you" and "your" shall refer to such entity.

If you do not agree to these Terms, you must not access or use our Services. Your continued use of our Services following the posting of any changes to these Terms constitutes acceptance of those changes.

These Terms are supplemented by our Privacy Policy, which describes how we collect, use, and protect your information. The Privacy Policy is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

DeepSweep provides a local-first runtime governance platform for AI coding agents. The platform governs the actions of AI coding agents and connected tools at the moment those actions attempt to touch code, shell, repositories, databases, MCP servers, and deployment targets. Enforcement runs locally in your own development environment; our cloud only coordinates, indexes, and bills. Our Services include, but are not limited to:

• Local Runtime. A local guardrail agent that runs in your development environment and performs all enforcement: intercepting agent and tool action attempts, evaluating signed policy bundles without a network round-trip, requiring human approval for dangerous operations, and writing a tamper-evident local audit record before an action executes. The Local Runtime is the durable core of the platform; editor extensions are delivery surfaces onto it.
• Agent Environment Review. A local, metadata-only review of your AI coding agent environment that produces a Repository Capability Profile (including a grade, deploy-risk signals, and the share of AI-generated changes). The Review is the free entry point to the platform. It reads configuration and capability metadata locally; it does not upload your source code or secrets.
• VS Code and Cursor Extensions. Editor extensions that deliver the Agent Environment Review and the Local Runtime inside your IDE, surfacing findings, approvals, and policy state at the point of work.
• Tiered Governance: Review, Protect, Control, Runtime. A progression of capabilities, from the free Agent Environment Review through policy protection, approval controls, and full local runtime enforcement, available across our free and paid plans as described in your selected plan.
• Cloud Coordination Plane. A hosted service that performs only what benefits from centralization: tenant identity, policy publishing, approval-workflow orchestration, audit indexing, replay storage, billing and entitlements, notifications, and team administration. By default it receives event metadata and intentionally small replay payloads; full code or full diffs are synced only with your explicit opt-in.

We reserve the right to modify, update, or discontinue any aspect of our Services at any time, with reasonable notice when practicable. For enterprise customers, any service-level commitments will be governed by a separate enterprise agreement.

Certain features of our Services require you to create an account. By registering for an account, you agree to the following:

• Accurate Information. You must provide accurate, current, and complete information during the registration process and keep your account information up to date.
• Account Security. You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account. You must use a strong, unique password and enable multi-factor authentication where available.
• Breach Notification. You must notify us immediately at security@deepsweep.ai if you become aware of any unauthorized access to or use of your account.
• Account Responsibility. You are liable for all actions taken through your account, whether or not you authorized them. DeepSweep is not responsible for any loss or damage arising from your failure to protect your account credentials.
• One Person Per Account. Accounts are for individual use. You may not share your account credentials with other individuals. Organization accounts with multiple seats are available through our team and enterprise plans.

We reserve the right to suspend or terminate any account that we reasonably believe violates these Terms, has been compromised, or is being used for fraudulent or unlawful purposes.

4.1 Free and Paid Services

DeepSweep offers both free and paid tiers of service. Free-tier functionality is provided at our discretion and may be modified or discontinued at any time. Paid features require an active subscription or one-time purchase.

4.2 Payment Processing

All payments are processed by Stripe, Inc., a PCI DSS Level 1 certified payment processor. By providing payment information, you authorize Stripe to charge the applicable fees to your designated payment method. DeepSweep does not store your full credit card number, CVV, or other sensitive payment credentials.

4.3 Subscription Terms

• Subscriptions are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis, depending on the plan selected.
• Subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing period unless cancelled before the renewal date.
• You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings. Cancellation takes effect at the end of the current billing period. No prorated refunds are provided for partial billing periods.
• Annual subscriptions that are cancelled before the end of the annual term are not eligible for partial refunds unless required by applicable law.

4.4 One-Time Purchases

Certain items, such as a one-time expert review or audit engagement, may be available for one-time purchase. One-time purchases are non-refundable once the purchased item has been delivered or made available to you.

4.5 Price Changes

We may modify our pricing at any time. For existing subscribers, price changes will take effect at the start of the next billing period following at least 30 days' written notice. If you do not agree to a price change, you may cancel your subscription before the new pricing takes effect.

4.6 Taxes

All fees are exclusive of applicable taxes (including sales tax, VAT, and GST) unless otherwise stated. You are responsible for paying all taxes associated with your use of our Services, except for taxes based on DeepSweep's net income.

4.7 Failed Payments

If a payment fails, we will attempt to charge your payment method up to three additional times over a 14-day period. If all attempts fail, your subscription may be suspended or downgraded to the free tier. We will notify you by email before any suspension occurs. Outstanding balances remain your responsibility.

You agree to use our Services only for lawful purposes and in accordance with these Terms. Specifically, you agree not to:

• Violate any applicable federal, state, local, or international law or regulation.
• Use the Services to develop, deploy, or protect AI systems designed to cause harm to individuals, organizations, or critical infrastructure.
• Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Services, other accounts, computer systems, or networks connected to the Services, whether through hacking, password mining, or any other means.
• Interfere with, disrupt, or create an undue burden on the Services or the networks and infrastructure used to provide them, including through denial-of-service attacks, excessive API calls, or automated scraping.
• Reverse engineer, decompile, disassemble, or otherwise attempt to discover the source code of any proprietary portion of the Services, except to the extent expressly permitted by applicable law or open-source licenses.
• Use the Services to build a competing product or service, or to benchmark the Services for competitive purposes, without our prior written consent.
• Misrepresent your identity, affiliation, or the source or nature of any data submitted to the Services.
• Use the Services to manipulate, falsify, or misrepresent security scores, audit records, or vulnerability assessments.
• Resell, sublicense, or provide access to the Services to third parties without our prior written consent, except through authorized team or enterprise plans.

We reserve the right to investigate and take appropriate action against any user who, in our sole discretion, violates this section, including terminating their account, reporting them to law enforcement, and pursuing civil remedies.

6.1 Our Intellectual Property

The Services, including all software, algorithms, designs, text, graphics, logos, trademarks, service marks, and other content (excluding open-source components and your data), are the exclusive property of DeepSweep, Inc. and its licensors. These Terms do not grant you any ownership interest in or to our intellectual property. You may not use our name, logos, or trademarks without our prior written consent.

6.2 Your Data

You retain all ownership rights in any data, content, or materials that you submit, upload, or transmit through the Services ("Your Data"). Because DeepSweep is local-first, the Local Runtime and the Agent Environment Review operate inside your own development environment, and your source code and secrets are not uploaded to us by default. The Cloud Coordination Plane receives only event metadata and intentionally small replay payloads unless you explicitly opt in to syncing full code or full diffs. By using the Services, you grant DeepSweep a limited, non-exclusive, worldwide, royalty-free license to use, process, store, and display Your Data solely as necessary to provide the Services to you and to improve our offerings. This license terminates when you delete Your Data or close your account, except for data that has been anonymized and aggregated such that it can no longer identify you.

6.3 Feedback

If you provide us with feedback, suggestions, ideas, or recommendations regarding our Services ("Feedback"), you grant us an unrestricted, irrevocable, perpetual, royalty-free license to use, modify, and incorporate such Feedback into our Services and business operations without any obligation or compensation to you.

Your privacy is important to us and is fundamental to our security mission. Our collection, use, disclosure, and protection of your personal information is governed by our Privacy Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms by reference.

By using our Services, you consent to the collection and use of your information as described in our Privacy Policy. You acknowledge that our Cloud Coordination Plane is hosted on cloud infrastructure in the United States and that the metadata it receives may be processed in the United States regardless of your location. Enforcement and the Agent Environment Review run locally in your own environment.

We implement industry-standard technical and organizational security measures to protect your data, including encryption in transit and at rest, access controls, and regular security assessments. However, no system is completely secure, and we cannot guarantee the absolute security of your information. You acknowledge and accept this inherent risk.

Certain components of our Services may be released under open-source licenses (such as MIT or Apache 2.0). Your use of open-source components is governed by their respective licenses in addition to these Terms. In the event of a conflict between these Terms and an applicable open-source license with respect to the open-source component, the open-source license shall prevail for that component.

We encourage contributions to our open-source projects. By submitting a contribution (including but not limited to code, documentation, or bug reports) to any DeepSweep open-source project, you agree that your contribution is made under the same license as the project and that you have the right to make such contribution.

Without limiting the foregoing, DeepSweep does not warrant that:

• The Services will be uninterrupted, timely, secure, or error-free.
• The results obtained from the use of the Services will be accurate, complete, or reliable.
• The Services will detect all security vulnerabilities, threats, or risks in your development environment.
• The Services will prevent all security incidents, data breaches, or unauthorized access.
• Any defects or errors in the Services will be corrected.

Runtime governance is an inherently complex and evolving discipline. Our Services are designed to assist you in identifying, governing, and mitigating the actions of AI coding agents, but they should be used as part of a comprehensive, defense-in-depth security strategy. No automated tool can guarantee complete protection against all threats.

The limitations set forth in this section shall apply regardless of the form of action, whether the claim is based in contract, tort (including negligence), strict liability, warranty, or any other legal or equitable theory, and shall survive the termination of these Terms.

Some jurisdictions do not allow the exclusion or limitation of certain damages. In such jurisdictions, DeepSweep's liability shall be limited to the fullest extent permitted by applicable law.

You agree to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless DeepSweep, Inc. and its officers, directors, employees, agents, affiliates, successors, and assigns from and against any and all claims, damages, obligations, losses, liabilities, costs, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees and legal costs) arising from or related to:

• Your use of or access to the Services;
• Your violation of these Terms or any applicable law or regulation;
• Your violation of any third-party right, including any intellectual property, privacy, or proprietary right;
• Any content or data you submit to or through the Services;
• Any claim that your use of the Services caused damage to a third party.

This indemnification obligation shall survive the termination of these Terms and your use of the Services. DeepSweep reserves the right, at your expense, to assume the exclusive defense and control of any matter for which you are required to indemnify us, and you agree to cooperate with our defense of such claims.

12.1 Termination by You

You may terminate your account and these Terms at any time by cancelling your subscription (if applicable) and deleting your account through the account settings page, or by contacting us at legal@deepsweep.ai.

12.2 Termination by DeepSweep

We may suspend or terminate your access to the Services, in whole or in part, at any time and for any reason, including but not limited to:

• Violation of these Terms or our Acceptable Use policy;
• Non-payment of fees after the grace period described in Section 4.7;
• Conduct that we reasonably believe may create liability for DeepSweep or harm other users;
• Extended inactivity (accounts with no login for 12 consecutive months may be subject to deletion with 30 days' prior notice);
• Discontinuation of the Services or any material portion thereof.

12.3 Effect of Termination

Upon termination, your right to access and use the Services ceases immediately. We will retain your data for 30 days following termination to allow you to request an export, after which it will be permanently deleted (except as required by law or our data retention policies). The following provisions survive termination: Intellectual Property (Section 6), Disclaimer of Warranties (Section 9), Limitation of Liability (Section 10), Indemnification (Section 11), Governing Law (Section 13), and General Provisions (Section 14).

13.1 Governing Law

These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. You consent to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts located in Delaware for the resolution of any disputes arising out of or relating to these Terms.

13.2 Informal Resolution

Before initiating any formal dispute resolution proceeding, you agree to first contact us at legal@deepsweep.ai and attempt to resolve the dispute informally for a period of at least 30 days. Most disputes can be resolved through good-faith negotiation.

13.3 Binding Arbitration

If the dispute cannot be resolved informally within 30 days, either party may elect to resolve the dispute through binding arbitration administered by JAMS under its Comprehensive Arbitration Rules and Procedures. The arbitration shall be conducted in English, shall take place in the State of Delaware (or remotely, at the election of either party), and the arbitrator's decision shall be final and binding. Judgment on the award may be entered in any court of competent jurisdiction.

13.4 Class Action Waiver

YOU AND DEEPSWEEP AGREE THAT EACH MAY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS, CONSOLIDATED, OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. The arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims and may not preside over any form of class or representative proceeding.

13.5 Exceptions

Notwithstanding the foregoing, either party may seek injunctive or other equitable relief in any court of competent jurisdiction to prevent the actual or threatened infringement, misappropriation, or violation of intellectual property rights.

• Entire Agreement. These Terms, together with our Privacy Policy and any applicable subscription agreement or order form, constitute the entire agreement between you and DeepSweep with respect to the Services and supersede all prior or contemporaneous communications, proposals, and agreements, whether oral or written.
• Severability. If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid, illegal, or unenforceable by a court of competent jurisdiction, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect. The invalid provision shall be modified to the minimum extent necessary to make it valid and enforceable while preserving its original intent.
• Waiver. The failure of DeepSweep to enforce any right or provision of these Terms shall not constitute a waiver of such right or provision. A waiver of any provision shall be effective only if made in writing and signed by DeepSweep.
• Assignment. You may not assign, transfer, or delegate these Terms or any of your rights or obligations hereunder without our prior written consent. DeepSweep may assign, transfer, or delegate these Terms and any rights and obligations without restriction and without notice to you.
• Force Majeure. DeepSweep shall not be liable for any failure or delay in performing its obligations under these Terms where such failure or delay results from circumstances beyond its reasonable control, including but not limited to natural disasters, acts of war or terrorism, pandemics, government actions, power failures, internet disruptions, or third-party service outages.
• Notices. We may provide notices to you through the Services, by email to the address associated with your account, or by other reasonable means. You may provide notices to us by email at legal@deepsweep.ai. Notices are deemed received upon delivery (for email) or upon posting (for in-Service notifications).
• Headings. The section headings in these Terms are for convenience only and have no legal or contractual effect.

We may revise these Terms from time to time at our sole discretion. When we make material changes, we will provide notice by:

• Sending an email notification to the address associated with your account at least 30 days before the changes take effect;
• Posting a prominent notice on our website;
• Updating the "Last Updated" date at the top of these Terms.

For non-material changes (such as typographical corrections or clarifications), we may update these Terms without prior notice.

Your continued use of the Services after the effective date of any changes constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the revised Terms, you must stop using the Services and, if applicable, cancel your subscription before the changes take effect.

If you have any questions about these Terms, please contact us:
