Terms of Service

Last updated 2026-04-30 · [DRAFT — under review]

1. Account

You're responsible for activity under your account. Don't share your API keys; treat them like passwords. We may suspend accounts engaged in clear abuse (mass automated signups, attempted resale of access, attacks against the service).

2. Pricing & credits

Fred is pay-as-you-go. Credits never expire and are not transferable. We may change per-token rates with at least 14 days' notice posted to fredcode.net; rate changes apply only to future usage.

3. Refunds

Top-ups are refundable within 30 days of purchase if your account has used less than $1 of the topped-up credits. Email support@fredcode.net with your account email.

4. Acceptable use

Don't use Fred to generate illegal content, to attack other systems, to scrape personal information, or in ways prohibited by DeepSeek's upstream policies. Violations may result in account termination without refund.

5. Liability

Fred is provided as-is. The service may have downtime. We aren't liable for indirect or consequential damages, and our total liability is capped at the credits you've spent in the 30 days preceding any claim.

6. Changes

We'll post material changes here and email account holders. Continued use after a change means you accept the new terms.

These terms are an early draft. The operator is reviewing them before public launch — if you spot something that should be clearer, email hello@fredcode.net.
