These terms cover your use of stateless.ci and Stateless Connect, the Google sign-in service used by the WP-Stateless plugin. The site and service are operated by UDX (Usability Dynamics, Inc.), Durham, North Carolina. By using them you agree to these terms. If you use them for an organization, you agree on its behalf.
What these terms cover
The website. stateless.ci publishes information, guides and documentation for WP-Stateless, along with a catalog of add-ons, cloud resources and services.
Stateless Connect. When you choose Sign in with Google in the plugin, Stateless Connect handles the Google authorization, delivers it to the WordPress site you confirm, and later relays that site's requests for a fresh access token. It also keeps the limited setup progress records described in the privacy policy so we can tell whether setup works.
The plugin is licensed separately. WP-Stateless is free software released under the GNU General Public License, version 2 or later. That license, not these terms, governs your right to use, change and share the plugin. You can run the plugin without Stateless Connect by configuring a bucket and service account yourself.
Paid resources and services are separate. Cloud resources and services listed on the site are requested through the contact form and provided by UDX under a separate agreement. Listings and prices are shown for information and may change.
Your Google Cloud account
Your media is stored in a Google Cloud project that you own. Your use of Google Cloud is governed by your agreement with Google, and Google bills you directly for storage, network and any other usage. UDX is not a party to that agreement and does not charge for Stateless Connect.
During setup the plugin can, at your request, create a project, link a billing account you select, enable APIs, create a bucket and create a service account and key. You are responsible for the resources created in your account, for their cost, and for removing them when you no longer need them. Disconnecting does not delete them.
Setup is intended for public website media. Files in a public media bucket can be read by anyone who has the address. Do not use one for confidential files.
Your responsibilities
Authorized use. Use Stateless Connect only with WordPress sites you are authorized to administer and Google accounts you are authorized to use.
Security. Keep your WordPress administrator accounts, site configuration, backups and service account keys secure.
Content. You are responsible for the media you store and publish. Follow the law and Google's terms when you do.
Fair use of the service. Do not attempt to disrupt the service, bypass its rate limits or security controls, obtain authorization intended for another site, or use it for anything other than connecting WP-Stateless to Google Cloud.
Privacy
Our privacy policy describes what the website and Stateless Connect collect, how Google account information is handled and protected, and how to disconnect or request deletion. Stateless Connect's use and transfer of information received from Google APIs adheres to the Google API Services User Data Policy, including its Limited Use requirements.
Availability
Stateless Connect is provided free of charge and without a service level commitment. We may change, limit, suspend or discontinue it, and we may block use that is abusive or that puts the service or other users at risk. If Stateless Connect is unavailable, media already stored in your bucket keeps working, and the plugin can be configured with your own service account key.
Support
Community support is available through the WordPress.org support forum and GitHub issues. These terms do not include a support commitment. Implementation help from UDX is available under a separate agreement.
Names and content
The text, design and graphics on stateless.ci belong to UDX or its licensors, apart from the open source plugin and its documentation, which are available under their own licenses. Google, Google Cloud and WordPress are trademarks of their respective owners. Use of these names does not imply endorsement.
No warranty
The website and Stateless Connect are provided as is and as available, without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including implied warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose and non-infringement. We do not warrant that the service will be uninterrupted or error free. The plugin is provided without warranty under the terms of its license.
Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, UDX is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost revenue, lost data or cloud charges, arising from your use of the website, Stateless Connect or the plugin. UDX's total liability for any claim relating to the website or Stateless Connect is limited to one hundred US dollars. Some jurisdictions do not allow certain limitations, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
Governing law
These terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to its conflict of law rules. Disputes will be brought in the state or federal courts located in North Carolina.
