Terms of service

1. These terms, in plain English

This is the agreement between you (and any organisation you act for) and plaingraph OÜ ("plaingraph", "we", "us") for use of the plaingraph service during its private beta. By requesting access, signing in, or using the service or its APIs, you agree to these terms. If you are agreeing on behalf of a company, you confirm you are allowed to bind it. If you do not agree, please do not use the service.

2. What plaingraph does

plaingraph turns public corporate-registry and sanctions data into clean, machine-readable company-intelligence, KYB, and sanctions-screening data, designed to be used by developers and AI agents through a hosted MCP server or a REST API. The service is in private beta, offered by invitation, and may not be reliable, complete, or available at any given time.

3. The beta: free, "as is", and may change

The private beta is provided free of charge. Because it is a beta:

4. Results are evidence, not a compliance decision

Screening results are probabilistic. A score and a decision band show how likely a record is to match a list or a registry entry — they are not identity confirmation and they are not a compliance, onboarding, or risk decision. You are responsible for that decision, and for reviewing the underlying evidence and source before you act. plaingraph does not "verify", "clear", or "approve" any person or company. Registry and accounts data can be out of date, incomplete, or wrong at source, and we do not guarantee its accuracy.

5. Where the data comes from

The service is built on public sources, including UK Companies House, the UK Sanctions List, and the OFAC Specially Designated Nationals (SDN) list. Each value carries its source and an as-of timestamp. You agree to use the data in line with those sources' own terms and with the law that applies to you — including data-protection and sanctions law. We may add or change sources over time.

6. Using the service responsibly

You agree not to:

7. Your access and API keys

Keep your sign-in details and API keys secret. You are responsible for everything done with your account or keys. Tell us promptly at [email protected] if you think a key has been exposed, and we will help you rotate it.

8. Who owns what

plaingraph (and its licensors) own the service, the software, and the way we structure, normalise, and present the data. We give you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable right to use the service and its output for your own business during the beta. The underlying public records belong to their original sources. Anything you send us to run the service (your queries) stays yours; we only use it to provide and protect the service, as set out in our privacy policy. If you give us feedback, we may use it freely to improve the service.

9. No warranties

The service is provided "as is" and "as available", with no warranties of any kind. To the fullest extent the law allows, we disclaim all implied warranties — including accuracy, completeness, timeliness, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, and uninterrupted or error-free operation. We do not warrant that the data is correct or that the service will meet your needs or any legal or regulatory requirement that applies to you.

10. Limitation of liability

Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law — for example, liability for death or personal injury caused by our negligence, or liability for our own fraud, intent, or gross negligence.

Subject to that, and to the fullest extent the law allows:

11. You cover claims from your misuse

If someone brings a claim against us because you used the service in breach of these terms or the law, you agree to cover the reasonable costs, damages, and expenses we incur from that claim, to the extent it was caused by your breach.

12. Suspension and ending access

You can stop using the service at any time. We may suspend or end your access — or the beta as a whole — at any time, especially if you breach these terms or the law, or to protect the service or other users. The sections that by their nature should survive (for example sections 4, 8, 9, 10, 11, and 14) continue to apply after access ends.

13. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms as the beta develops. If a change is material, we will give beta users reasonable notice (for example by email or in the dashboard). Continuing to use the service after a change takes effect means you accept the updated terms.

14. Governing law and disputes

These terms, and any dispute arising out of or relating to them or the service, are governed by the laws of Estonia. The courts of Estonia (Harju County Court as the court of first instance) have jurisdiction, unless mandatory law that protects you as a consumer gives you the right to bring a claim elsewhere. Nothing here affects your mandatory rights under the law that applies to you.
