Acceptable Use Policy

How you may and may not use Inspekt.

1. Scope

This policy is part of the Terms. It covers you and anyone using the service through your API key, including your end users where your product puts the service in front of them. A breach of this policy is a material breach of the Terms and can lead to suspension or termination under Terms section 10.

2. Permitted use

Permitted uses include marketplaces, trading platforms, inventory and portfolio tools, price trackers, and content and media sites. Section 3 applies to customers whose own business is licensed or otherwise regulated.

3. Regulated and high-risk customers

We do not exclude a business because of its sector. We ask that you are licensed for your business wherever licensing applies, and that you tell us if that stops being true.

This section applies to you if any part of your product needs a licence, permit or registration, or is subject to age-verification, anti-money-laundering or consumer-protection rules. If it does, you represent and warrant, on an ongoing basis, that:

3.1 you hold every licence, permit and registration each jurisdiction requires where you operate or where your offering is reachable, unless you have geo-restricted those jurisdictions out;

3.2 you comply with the licensing, age-verification, anti-money-laundering and consumer-protection law that applies to you in each of them;

3.3 you will tell us promptly if your licensing status changes, is suspended or is challenged; and

3.4 you will indemnify us for claims arising from your own regulatory exposure, under Terms section 14.2.

We are not a party to your business and take no responsibility for your compliance with the law that governs it. Nothing in this section obliges us to serve any particular customer. We may still decline, suspend or terminate service under Terms section 10, for example for a sanctioned jurisdiction, credible evidence of fraud, or a licensing failure you do not cure. We hold that right for every customer.

4. Prohibited use

Whatever your plan, you must not, and must not let anyone using your key:

4.1 break any law, regulation or third party's rights;

4.2 reverse-engineer, decompile, extract or scrape the service or the assets underneath it;

4.3 self-host, mirror, sublicense, resell or white-label the service;

4.4 use our output, or what you learn from observing the service, to build or improve a competing 3D weapon-skin renderer;

4.5 work around quotas, rate limits, the origin allowlist or key validation, including by guessing keys or systematically probing our error responses to map them;

4.6 use another customer's key, or knowingly allow your key to be used from an origin you have not registered;

4.7 probe, scan or pen-test the service without our written authorization, or otherwise degrade it for other customers, for example with request bursts designed to exhaust capacity;

4.8 send malware, executable payloads or input crafted to exploit us through any field we accept, including inspect links, Steam IDs and name-tag text;

4.9 impersonate us, or claim we endorse your product beyond the wordmark the service itself displays;

4.10 submit anything other than genuine Steam and CS2 inspect data through the parameters meant for it;

4.11 use the Inventory API to harvest Steam account data at scale for anything other than showing an account holder their own inventory, make unsolicited bulk lookups, or build your own inventory database from our responses;

4.12 use the service with content that is unlawful, fraudulent or deceptive, or that infringes someone else's intellectual property (Valve's aside, which Terms section 11 deals with) or their publicity or privacy rights; or

4.13 aim the service at minors, or knowingly let them use it, in breach of applicable law. This applies in particular to the age-verification duties in section 3.

5.1 If you believe material available through the service infringes your copyright, send a notice to our designated agent:

Copyright Agent, Menu Atlas LLC
c/o Northwest Registered Agent LLC
7533 S Center View Ct Ste N, West Jordan, UT 84084, USA
copyright@inspekt.gg

5.2 To be effective under 17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3) your notice must include: a physical or electronic signature; identification of the copyrighted work claimed to be infringed; identification of the material claimed to be infringing and information reasonably sufficient to let us locate it; your contact details; a statement that you believe in good faith that the use is not authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and a statement, under penalty of perjury, that the information is accurate and that you are authorised to act for the owner.

5.3 We will respond to a complete notice expeditiously and will remove or disable access to the material identified. We will tell the affected customer what was removed and why.

5.4 A customer whose material is removed may send a counter-notice meeting the requirements of 17 U.S.C. § 512(g)(3) to the same address.

5.5 We terminate the accounts of repeat infringers.

6. Reporting a vulnerability

If you find a security problem, email hello@inspekt.gg with enough detail to reproduce it. We will not pursue a good-faith report about something you found without attacking the service, meaning no denial of service, no access to other customers' data and no automated scanning, provided you give us a reasonable chance to fix it before you publish. Section 4.7 still prohibits unauthorized testing.

7. Enforcement

A breach of this policy can lead to a warning, suspension or termination under Terms section 10, at our discretion and in proportion to what happened. We may report activity we reasonably believe is unlawful to the relevant authorities.

8. Changes

We update this policy the same way we update the Terms, under Terms section 16.
