We hope you are enjoying Kineto!
In order to keep the Kineto service running smoothly, safely, and securely, JetBrains s.r.o. (“We”) needs to make sure that Kineto is used fairly and is not misused by its users (“You”). This policy explains, in addition to the Kineto EAP Terms of Service, what We consider unfair and unacceptable use of Kineto and how We can exercise Our rights in the event of a breach. The capitalized terms that are not specifically defined in this policy have the meanings defined in the Kineto EAP Terms of Service. In this document, unless We state otherwise, the word ‘including’ always means without limitation (i.e., there may be other instances).
You may not use the Kineto service in a way that is restricted, unfair, or unacceptable. This prohibition includes submitting certain Inputs and requesting Outputs that breach this policy, in each case as determined by JetBrains.
Please note that some restrictions are required in order to comply with the acceptable use policies of the providers of Kineto connected to Kineto. In such cases, the language adopted here is drawn from those policies, including the territory limitations, sector specific restrictions and some other limitations.
Due to the restrictions imposed by the providers of Kineto services connected to Kineto, You may use the Kineto service only in locations listed at https://www.jetbrains.com/legal/docs/terms/jetbrains-ai/service-territory/. Usage of Kineto outside these territories is not allowed.
Unfair use of Kineto includes:
(a) Compromising the integrity, performance, or security of Kineto, Our systems, or Our infrastructure in any way. This includes uploading or transmitting any data that contains or redirects to a harmful component or technology – such as a virus, trojan horse, or anything similar – that accesses, downloads, impedes, or otherwise interacts with Kineto in an unauthorized or illegal way.
(b) Circumventing any security or authentication measures, including hacking Our services or gaining unauthorized access to any computer or network. We expect You to prevent unauthorized access to Kineto and keep passwords and other authentication credentials secure.
(c) Reverse assembling, reverse compiling, decompiling, translating, or otherwise attempting to discover the source code or underlying components of models, algorithms, and systems of the large language models that are connected to Kineto (except to the extent such restrictions are contrary to applicable law).
(d) Imposing an unreasonable load on Our infrastructure by exceeding the parameters described in the Kineto documentation, using an unreasonable amount of JetBrains resources, or using JetBrains-related automated systems in an unreasonable way.
(e) Using any automated or programmatic method to extract data or output from the Kineto Services, including scraping, web harvesting, or web data extraction (except as permitted through the API).
(f) Intercepting any transmission to or from Kineto or a JetBrains-related network server.
An attempt to do any of the above is also unacceptable, as is encouraging or permitting any third party to do so.
The following uses of the Kineto service are unacceptable:

(f) Using Kineto to develop models that compete with the large language model providers (providers of Kineto Services) connected to Kineto.
(g) Using Kineto contrary to community standards, without respect for community participation, or in a malicious manner. Inciting, engaging in, or encouraging abuse, violence, hatred, or discrimination is not acceptable, nor is language deemed malicious by JetBrains.
