Usage Rights

Effective date: May 26, 2026

Terms of Service

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using blocksign.red (the “Service”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree, do not use the Service. Continued use after updates constitutes acceptance of revised terms.

2. Description of Service

Boneyard Software LLC (“Company,” “we,” “us”) operates blocksign.red, an electronic signature platform that anchors signed documents to the XRPL and Bitcoin blockchains. The Service includes web interfaces, APIs, MCP server endpoints, webhook delivery, and document verification tools.

3. Account Responsibilities

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials, API keys, and agent keys. You are liable for all activity conducted under your account. Notify us immediately at security@blocksign.red if you suspect unauthorized access.

4. Acceptable Use

You agree to use the Service only for lawful purposes. You will not:

  • Upload documents containing illegal content
  • Forge, fabricate, or misrepresent signatures
  • Interfere with or disrupt the Service infrastructure
  • Attempt to reverse-engineer proprietary components
  • Resell access without written authorization

5. Intellectual Property

All Service branding, software, and documentation are the property of Boneyard Software LLC. Your documents remain yours. We claim no ownership over content you upload or sign. We retain a limited license to process, store, and anchor your documents solely to deliver the Service.

6. Limitation of Liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Boneyard Software LLC shall not be liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages arising from your use of the Service. Our total liability for any claim shall not exceed the fees you paid in the twelve (12) months preceding the claim.

7. Data Handling & Privacy

We process personal data in accordance with applicable law, including the EU General Data Protection Regulation (GDPR). Document data is stored in the region you select at account creation. Blockchain anchors are public by design — only cryptographic hashes are published, never document contents. You may request data export or deletion in accordance with your data subject rights.

8. Termination

We may suspend or terminate your account for violation of these Terms, non-payment, or extended inactivity (12+ months). You may terminate your account at any time. Upon termination, we will provide a 30-day window to export your data. Blockchain anchors are permanent and cannot be revoked.

9. Governing Law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to conflict-of-law principles. Any disputes shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Delaware.

API Usage Policy

1. API Access & Authentication

Access to the blocksign.red API requires authentication via one of the following:

  • API keys — long-lived keys scoped to your account. Rotate regularly.
  • Agent keys — scoped keys issued to AI agents with configurable permissions.
  • JWT tokens — short-lived tokens obtained via OAuth for session-based access.

All requests must be made over HTTPS. Unauthenticated requests will be rejected.

2. Rate Limits

Endpoint categorySustainedBurst
General API100 req/s200 req/s
Authentication endpoints20 req/min40 req/min

Requests exceeding these limits receive a 429 response with a Retry-After header. Repeated violation may result in temporary suspension.

3. Fair Use

The API is provided for legitimate document signing and verification workflows. You may not:

  • Scrape or bulk-download data unrelated to your own documents
  • Circumvent billing by replaying or forging transaction records
  • Use the API to benchmark or stress-test without prior written approval

4. Prohibited Uses

  • Signing or anchoring documents that facilitate illegal activity
  • Submitting forged or unauthorized signatures
  • Generating spam agreements or mass unsolicited signature requests
  • Impersonating other users or organizations

5. Billing & Credits

Pricing is per document:

  • Base fee: $2.99 per document (up to 10 pages)
  • Overage: $0.50 per page beyond 10
  • Credit packs: Pre-purchased credits at a discount (10/$12, 50/$50, 200/$160)
  • Subscriptions: Monthly plans with included document allotments

Agent keys with the billing.auto_purchase capability will automatically purchase the smallest credit pack when quota is exhausted. Unpaid invoices may result in service suspension after a 7-day grace period.

6. Webhook Delivery

We deliver event webhooks on a best-effort basis. Failed deliveries are retried with exponential backoff (initial delay 30 seconds, maximum 6 retries over ~32 minutes). If your endpoint is unreachable for 72 hours, the webhook subscription will be marked inactive. You are responsible for idempotent handling of duplicate deliveries.

7. SLA

We target 99.9% monthly uptime for the API, measured as successful responses (non-5xx) divided by total requests. This excludes scheduled maintenance windows (announced 48 hours in advance), force majeure events, and issues caused by third-party blockchain network congestion.

8. Changes to Policy

We will provide at least 30 days written notice (via email to your account address) before material changes to this API Usage Policy take effect. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance.
