Acceptable Use Policy
v1.0 · effective 2026-06-01
What you may not do with the service. It is short because the rule is simple: use the released contract, protect credentials, and do not break things.
1. Purpose
This policy is part of the Terms of Service and applies to all use of RobinhoodRPC released current-data surfaces and RPC. It protects the service for every customer using the published contract.
2. Lawful use
Use the service only in compliance with the laws that apply to you, including sanctions, market-abuse, and data-protection rules in your jurisdiction. You are responsible for the legality of what you build; we provide data and infrastructure, not legal cover.
3. Credential and service misuse
You may build commercial products, research, analytics, models, alerts, and derived data from the released service, subject to applicable law and the Terms. Do not resell or share API credentials, evade plan limits, or represent an unavailable surface as part of the Service.
4. No circumvention
- No evading rate limits, metering, or tier restrictions, whether by key sharing, header spoofing, or otherwise. Quotas are the product boundary.
- No sharing API keys outside your organization or embedding them where third parties can extract and use them.
- No accessing surfaces or data your tier does not include.
5. Service integrity
No probing, scanning, or testing the service or its infrastructure except through the responsible-disclosure process in the trust center; no denial-of-service, resource-exhaustion patterns, or interference with other customers' use; no introducing malware through any input. Reconnect loops with backoff are normal use; deliberate connection storms are not.
6. Enforcement
Enforcement is proportionate and starts with the smallest tool: throttling, then key suspension, then account termination for serious or repeated violations. We notify you at each step where doing so is lawful and does not enable further abuse, and we reverse actions promptly when an issue is resolved or was our error. Suspension under this policy is excluded from SLA credits.
7. Reports
To report abuse of the service, or to ask whether a planned use is acceptable before you build it: legal@robinhoodrpc.io. Security vulnerabilities go to security@robinhoodrpc.io.
