End User License Agreement & Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By creating an account or using Archon Inspect (the “Service”), you agree to be bound by this Agreement. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. If you use the Service on behalf of a company, you represent that you have authority to bind that company. You must be at least 18 years old to use the Service.

2. What the Service Is — and Is Not

The Service provides informational tools relating to building codes and related requirements as adopted by specific jurisdictions, compiled from public legislative sources such as adopting ordinances and statutes, together with software features that help you organize and query your own uploaded materials.

The Service is not legal, engineering, architectural, or code-compliance advice. Outputs are informational aids only. The Service is not a substitute for the determinations of the building official, code official, or other authority having jurisdiction (“AHJ”), whose interpretation of applicable requirements controls. Always verify requirements with the AHJ and consult qualified licensed professionals before acting.

Code content and currency. Code-related content in the Service is compiled from identified public sources (e.g., adopting and amending ordinances) and is labeled with the source and a “current through” date where available. Codes and local amendments change; content may not reflect the most recent enactments, and errors or omissions may occur. We do not warrant that any content is complete, current, or error-free.

3. License to Use the Service

Subject to this Agreement, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable license to access and use the Service for your personal or internal business purposes. You may not: (a) copy, scrape, harvest, or bulk-download Service content or data; (b) resell, sublicense, or redistribute the Service or its content; (c) reverse engineer the Service or use it to build a competing product or to train machine-learning models; (d) circumvent access controls or usage limits; or (e) use the Service in violation of law.

4. Your Content (Uploads)

4.1 Ownership. You retain all ownership rights in notes, documents, photos, and other materials you upload (“User Content”). We claim no ownership of User Content.

4.2 License to Us. You grant us a limited, non-exclusive license to host, store, and process your User Content — including automatically parsing, converting, indexing, chunking, generating vector embeddings of, and summarizing it — solely to provide the Service to you and to operate, secure, and improve the Service’s functionality. User Content and materials derived from it are maintained on a per-account basis and are not added to the Service’s shared code database or made available to other users. This license ends when you delete the User Content or your account, except for copies in routine backups (which are purged on a rolling basis) and as needed to comply with law.

4.3 Your Responsibilities and Warranties. You are solely responsible for your User Content. You represent and warrant that you own your User Content or have all rights necessary to upload it and grant the license above, and that your User Content does not infringe any third party’s intellectual-property or other rights. Do not upload material you do not have the right to copy — including copyrighted publications such as commercially published code books, standards, or other licensed documents.

4.4 No Obligation to Monitor; Removal Rights. We do not review User Content in the ordinary course of business, but we reserve the right (not the obligation) to remove or disable access to any User Content that we become aware violates this Agreement or the law.

4.5 Human Access. User Content is processed automatically. Our personnel do not review User Content except as reasonably necessary to operate, secure, or troubleshoot the Service, respond to your support requests, enforce this Agreement, or comply with law.

5. Copyright Policy (DMCA)

We comply with the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, 17 U.S.C. § 512.

5.1 Notices. If you believe material on the Service infringes your copyright, send a notice satisfying 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) to our Designated Agent: Iris Rodriguez, 8751 Collin McKinney Pkwy STE 1102 #519, McKinney, TX 75070; iris.rodriguez@nebustream.com; (469) 296-8340. We will respond expeditiously, including removing or disabling access to the identified material where appropriate.

5.2 Counter-Notices. If your material was removed and you believe removal was mistaken, you may submit a counter-notice under 17 U.S.C. § 512(g).

5.3 Repeat Infringers. We will terminate, in appropriate circumstances, the accounts of users who are repeat infringers.

6. Intellectual Property; Public Law

The Service’s software, design, original explanations, summaries, compilations, provenance data, and other original content are owned by the Company or its licensors and protected by law. Enacted laws, including building codes as adopted by governmental jurisdictions, are public law; nothing in this Agreement claims exclusive rights in the text of any enacted law, and nothing in this Agreement grants you rights in third parties’ copyrighted works (including model codes, commentaries, or standards not enacted into law).

7. Disclaimers

THE SERVICE AND ALL CONTENT ARE PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE,” WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, ACCURACY, COMPLETENESS, CURRENCY, NON-INFRINGEMENT, AND UNINTERRUPTED OR ERROR-FREE OPERATION. OUTPUTS MAY CONTAIN ERRORS, INCLUDING INCORRECT, INCOMPLETE, OR OUTDATED CODE REFERENCES. YOU BEAR SOLE RESPONSIBILITY FOR DECISIONS MADE OR ACTIONS TAKEN IN RELIANCE ON THE SERVICE.

8. Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW: (a) THE COMPANY WILL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, EXEMPLARY, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR LOST PROFITS, LOST DATA, CONSTRUCTION DELAYS, FAILED INSPECTIONS, REWORK COSTS, FINES, OR PENALTIES, ARISING FROM OR RELATING TO THE SERVICE; AND (b) THE COMPANY’S TOTAL AGGREGATE LIABILITY WILL NOT EXCEED THE GREATER OF THE AMOUNTS YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS BEFORE THE CLAIM OR ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100). Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations; in those jurisdictions, these limits apply to the fullest extent permitted.

9. Indemnification

You will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless the Company and its officers, directors, employees, and agents from and against claims, damages, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) arising from: (a) your User Content, including any claim that it infringes a third party’s rights; (b) your use of the Service in violation of this Agreement or law; or (c) your reliance on Service outputs in connection with any project, inspection, or dispute.

10. Termination

You may stop using the Service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access for violation of this Agreement, suspected infringement, legal risk, or discontinuation of the Service. Upon termination, your license ends and we will delete or disable access to your User Content within a commercially reasonable period, subject to Section 4.2. Sections 4.3, 6–9, and 11–12 survive termination.

11. Governing Law; Disputes

This Agreement is governed by the laws of the State of Texas, without regard to conflict-of-laws rules.

12. General

We may modify this Agreement by posting an updated version and, for material changes, providing reasonable notice; continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance. This Agreement is the entire agreement regarding the Service and supersedes prior agreements on the subject. If any provision is unenforceable, the remainder stays in effect. Our failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. You may not assign this Agreement without our consent; we may assign it in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
