Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, TechForDev and its administrator shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, including loss of profits, data, or goodwill, arising from your use of or inability to use the Platform.

Respectful Use

You agree to use TechForDev in a manner that does not interfere with other users' experience or the normal operation of the Platform. Any attempt to disrupt, overload, or damage the Platform's infrastructure is strictly prohibited.

Account Preferences

If you use TechForDev features that store preferences locally (such as bookmarks, reading history, or theme settings), you are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your browser environment. These preferences are stored locally and TechForDev has no access to them.

6. API & Data Usage

Third-Party API Compliance

Content displayed on TechForDev is sourced from third-party APIs (GNews, Dev.to, GitHub, YouTube, Hugging Face, etc.). Your use of such third-party content is also subject to the terms of service and usage restrictions of those respective platforms. TechForDev operates within the permitted use guidelines of each API provider.

Free APIs Directory

The Free APIs directory on TechForDev is provided for informational purposes only. TechForDev does not endorse or guarantee the quality, reliability, or uptime of any listed API. Use of any listed API is governed by that API's own terms of service.

7. Termination

Right to Terminate

TechForDev reserves the right to suspend or terminate access to the Platform, at our sole discretion, if we believe you have violated these Terms or engaged in conduct that is harmful to the Platform or other users. Since TechForDev does not require accounts, termination primarily refers to IP-level access restrictions.

Effect of Termination

Upon termination of access, your right to use the Platform ceases immediately. Locally stored preferences and data may remain in your browser but will not be accessible if access is restricted at the network level.
