4. Tunnels

How Tunnels Work

The Service creates secure tunnels that expose your local development server to a public URL for review purposes. Traffic passes through our infrastructure but is not stored, inspected, or logged by us (except for connection metadata such as timestamps and status).

Your Responsibility

You are solely responsible for the content served through your tunnels. You must ensure that any content accessible via a tunnel complies with applicable laws and these Terms. Do not use tunnels to serve production traffic, host persistent websites, or distribute malicious content.

Availability

Tunnels are provided on a best-effort basis. We do not guarantee uptime, latency, or availability. Tunnels may be terminated without notice if they violate these Terms or if necessary for maintenance or security.

5. Comments & Collaboration

Comments and feedback left on tunnels are stored by the Service and visible to tunnel participants based on sharing and permission settings. You retain ownership of the content you submit but grant us a limited license to store, display, and transmit it as necessary to provide the Service.

You are responsible for the content of your comments. Do not post content that is illegal, abusive, or infringes on the rights of others.

6. Third-Party Integrations

The Service allows you to connect third-party services (e.g., GitHub, Linear, Jira, Slack). These integrations are governed by the respective third party's terms of service and privacy policy. We are not responsible for the availability, accuracy, or practices of third-party services.

When you authorize an integration, you grant us permission to exchange data with that service on your behalf as necessary to provide the integration functionality.

7. Intellectual Property

Our IP

The Service, including its design, code, documentation, trademarks, and logos, is owned by Checkpoint Labs, LLC and protected by intellectual property laws. These Terms do not grant you any rights to our intellectual property except the limited right to use the Service as described herein.

Your Content

You retain ownership of all content you create, upload, or submit through the Service ("Your Content"). By submitting Your Content, you grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use, store, reproduce, modify, and display Your Content solely as necessary to provide and improve the Service.

Feedback

If you provide suggestions, ideas, or feedback about the Service, we may use them without obligation or compensation to you.

Payments are processed by Stripe. By providing payment information, you agree to Stripe's terms of service. We do not store your full payment card details.

9. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

We do not warrant that the Service will be uninterrupted, error-free, or secure. We do not warrant the accuracy or completeness of any information provided through the Service.

12. Governing Law & Disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any disputes arising from these Terms or the Service shall be resolved through binding arbitration administered by the American Arbitration Association, except that either party may seek injunctive relief in court for intellectual property matters. You agree to resolve disputes on an individual basis and waive any right to participate in a class action.

13. Changes to These Terms
