The Service is offered under subscription plans as described on our Pricing page. Plan details, including compute unit allocations, feature access, and pricing, are incorporated into these Terms by reference.
Paid plans are billed in advance on a monthly or annual basis. Payment is processed through Stripe. By providing payment information, you authorize us to charge the applicable fees to your payment method. All fees are stated in US Dollars and are non-refundable except as expressly stated herein or required by law.
If you exceed your plan's compute unit allocation, additional usage may be charged at the overage rate specified in your plan, or your access may be rate-limited until the next billing cycle, depending on your plan configuration.
We may change our prices with at least 30 days' notice. Price changes take effect at the start of the next billing cycle. Your continued use of the Service after a price change constitutes acceptance of the new pricing.
For paid plans, Bootnode targets the following service levels:
Uptime is measured as the percentage of minutes in a calendar month during which the API endpoints are available and responsive. Scheduled maintenance windows (announced at least 48 hours in advance) and force majeure events are excluded from uptime calculations.
If we fail to meet the applicable SLA in any calendar month, you may request a service credit. Credits are calculated as a percentage of your monthly fee proportional to the downtime experienced, up to a maximum of 30% of your monthly fee. Service credits are the sole and exclusive remedy for SLA failures.

Each party agrees to protect the confidential information of the other party with the same degree of care it uses for its own confidential information. Confidential information includes API keys, account credentials, pricing terms, and any non-public technical or business information shared between the parties.
