Terms of Service

Last updated: March 14, 2026

Agreement to Terms

These Terms of Service ("Terms") constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Cadiro ("Cadiro," "we," "us," or "our") governing your access to and use of the website at cadiro.io and all related products, services, and features (collectively, the "Service").

By accessing or using the Service, creating an account, or clicking to accept these Terms, you agree to be bound by them. If you do not agree, do not access or use the Service.

You must be at least 18 years old and capable of forming a binding contract to use the Service. If you are using the Service on behalf of a company or other legal entity, you represent that you have authority to bind that entity to these Terms.

Description of Service

Cadiro is a changelog and release notes platform that allows users to create, publish, and share product update pages. The Service includes a web-based editor, hosted public changelog pages, embeddable widgets, email subscriber notifications, and related tools.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the Service at any time with or without notice. We will not be liable to you or any third party for any modification, suspension, or discontinuation of the Service.

User Accounts

To access certain features of the Service you must register for an account. When registering, you agree to provide accurate, current, and complete information and to keep that information up to date.

You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. You agree to notify us immediately at support@cadiro.io if you suspect unauthorized access to your account.

You may not share your account with others, create accounts by automated means, or create an account on behalf of another person without their permission.

Subscriptions and Billing

Some features of the Service are available only through a paid subscription. All fees are stated in US dollars and are exclusive of applicable taxes unless stated otherwise.

Recurring billing. Paid subscriptions renew automatically at the end of each billing period (monthly or annually, as selected) until cancelled. By subscribing, you authorize us to charge your payment method on a recurring basis.

Cancellation. You may cancel your subscription at any time from your account settings or by contacting us. Cancellation takes effect at the end of your current billing period; you will retain access to paid features until that date.

Refunds. We do not provide refunds for partial billing periods or unused portions of a subscription. When you upgrade or change plans, unused time on your current plan may be converted to account credit and applied automatically toward future invoices — no cash refunds are issued. Exceptions may be made at our sole discretion.

Price changes. We may change subscription prices at any time. We will give you at least 30 days' advance notice before any price increase takes effect for your subscription.

Acceptable Use

You agree not to use the Service to:

  • Violate any applicable law, regulation, or third-party right;
  • Transmit spam, unsolicited messages, or deceptive content;
  • Upload or distribute malicious code, viruses, or harmful software;
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to any part of the Service or its infrastructure;
  • Reverse engineer, decompile, or disassemble any part of the Service;
  • Resell or sublicense access to the Service without our written consent;
  • Use the Service in any manner that could disable, damage, or impair it;
  • Collect or harvest user data from the Service without authorization;
  • Access or attempt to access the Service using automated means, bots, or scripts in a manner that places excessive load on our infrastructure.

We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to take any of the following actions in response to violations of these requirements or for any other reason that we determine is necessary to protect the Service, our users, or the public:

  • Suspend or terminate your account immediately, without prior notice or liability;
  • Block access by IP address — we may deny access to the Service from specific IP addresses associated with abuse, fraud, or policy violations;
  • Restrict access by geographic region or country — we may block access from specific countries or regions at any time, including for legal compliance, fraud prevention, or operational reasons;
  • Remove or disable content that we believe violates these Terms or is otherwise objectionable.

These enforcement actions are taken at our sole discretion. We are not obligated to provide reasons for these actions, and we will not be liable to you or any third party for any such enforcement.

Your Content

You retain all rights to content you submit, post, or display on or through the Service ("Your Content"). By posting Your Content, you grant Cadiro a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to host, store, reproduce, and display Your Content solely for the purpose of providing the Service to you.

You are solely responsible for Your Content. You represent and warrant that you own or have the necessary rights to Your Content and that it does not infringe any third-party intellectual property rights or violate any applicable law.

We may remove or disable access to any content that we believe violates these Terms or is otherwise objectionable, without prior notice and at our sole discretion.

Intellectual Property

The Service and its original content, features, functionality, design, and underlying technology are and will remain the exclusive property of Cadiro. Our trademarks, logos, and service marks may not be used without our prior written consent.

If you provide feedback, suggestions, or ideas about the Service ("Feedback"), you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free license to use that Feedback for any purpose without obligation to you.

Third-Party Services

The Service may contain links to or integrations with third-party websites, services, or applications that are not owned or controlled by Cadiro. We have no control over and assume no responsibility for the content, privacy policies, or practices of any third-party services.

Your use of third-party services may be subject to those services' own terms and privacy policies. We encourage you to review them before use.

Termination

You may close your account at any time by contacting us or using the account deletion feature in your account settings. Upon account deletion, we will remove your data in accordance with our Privacy Policy.

We may suspend, restrict, or terminate your access to the Service — in whole or in part — immediately, without prior notice or liability, at our sole discretion, including but not limited to the following circumstances:

  • Breach of these Terms or our Acceptable Use Policy;
  • Fraudulent, abusive, or illegal activity associated with your account;
  • Actions that harm or threaten the security, integrity, or availability of the Service;
  • Non-payment of fees;
  • Any other reason we determine, in our sole discretion, warrants such action.

In addition to account-level termination, we may block access by IP address or geographic region without notice and at our sole discretion. Such blocks may affect other users who share the same IP address or are located in the same region.

Upon termination, your right to use the Service will immediately cease. Sections that by their nature should survive termination — including Intellectual Property, Disclaimer of Warranties, Limitation of Liability, Indemnification, and Governing Law — will survive any termination of these Terms.

Disclaimer of Warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, NON-INFRINGEMENT, OR COURSE OF PERFORMANCE.

CADIRO DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR FREE OF VIRUSES OR OTHER HARMFUL COMPONENTS, OR THAT ANY DEFECTS WILL BE CORRECTED.

Limitation of Liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL CADIRO, ITS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, PARTNERS, AGENTS, SUPPLIERS, OR AFFILIATES BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING WITHOUT LIMITATION LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO YOUR ACCESS TO OR USE OF (OR INABILITY TO ACCESS OR USE) THE SERVICE.

IN NO EVENT SHALL CADIRO'S AGGREGATE LIABILITY TO YOU FOR ALL CLAIMS ARISING OUT OF OR RELATED TO THE SERVICE EXCEED THE GREATER OF (A) THE TOTAL AMOUNT YOU PAID TO CADIRO IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, OR (B) ONE HUNDRED US DOLLARS ($100).

SOME JURISDICTIONS DO NOT ALLOW THE EXCLUSION OR LIMITATION OF LIABILITY FOR CONSEQUENTIAL OR INCIDENTAL DAMAGES. IN SUCH JURISDICTIONS, OUR LIABILITY IS LIMITED TO THE GREATEST EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW.

Indemnification

You agree to defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Cadiro and its directors, employees, partners, agents, suppliers, and affiliates from and against any claims, liabilities, damages, losses, and expenses (including reasonable attorneys' fees) arising out of or in any way connected with: (a) your access to or use of the Service; (b) Your Content; (c) your violation of these Terms; or (d) your violation of any third-party right.

Governing Law

These Terms are governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, without regard to its conflict of law provisions.

Any legal action or proceeding arising out of or relating to these Terms or the Service shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in New York County, New York (Manhattan). Both parties hereby irrevocably consent to the personal jurisdiction and venue of such courts.

If any provision of these Terms is held to be invalid or unenforceable, that provision will be enforced to the maximum extent permissible and the remaining provisions will continue in full force and effect.

Changes to These Terms

We reserve the right to modify these Terms at any time. If we make material changes, we will provide at least 30 days' notice by posting the updated Terms on this page and updating the "Last updated" date, and may also notify you by email.

Your continued use of the Service after any changes take effect constitutes your acceptance of the revised Terms. If you do not agree to the updated Terms, you must stop using the Service.
