Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before creating your document.
Can we use this for public developer APIs exposed on the internet?+
Yes. It is suitable for public APIs provided developers accept the terms via clickwrap or similar mechanisms, and you configure rate limits and monitoring appropriately.
How do we handle abuse or DDoS originating via an API key?+
The agreement allows you to throttle or suspend access if usage threatens system stability or violates law, while you investigate and, if appropriate, rotate credentials.
Is this agreement enough for regulated financial or health APIs?+
It provides a strong baseline, but for regulated APIs you should add sector-specific compliance, audit, and data protection clauses reflecting RBI, SEBI, health, or other regulations.
Can we grant white-label rights to resell our API?+
You can extend the permitted use field and, if needed, add a separate reseller or partnership addendum that clarifies downstream responsibilities and branding rules.
How are SDKs and open-source obligations handled?+
The template anticipates SDKs using open-source components and requires you to disclose license obligations, while the licensee agrees to comply with those when redistributing SDKs.
