Services and Data

Use of the ipfind API

Subject to the terms herein, HTTP Rest Software Services will provide You with access to ipfind API Data & Services over the Internet through the ipfind API. All calls to the ipfind API must reference the credentials issued to You by HTTP Rest Software Services. You may not disclose Your credentials to any other party.

If You exceed Your monthly usage limit, the ipfind API will return an error message stating that Your monthly usage limit has been reached and no further API calls can be made within the current monthly term. It is Your sole responsibility to ensure that your application(s) properly detect and handle any returned error messages. HTTP Rest Software Services will make reasonable efforts to help You identify and resolve usage problems, or to review the suitability of Your current subscription plan for Your needs. HTTP Rest Software Services reserves the right to limit or throttle the number of network calls available to Your application(s) if HTTP Rest Software Services (in its sole discretion) believes that such calls are being made for malicious reasons, or as the result of a technical error.

Responsibility for Software and Hardware
