Terms of Service

BasicRouter Service Overview

BasicRouter operates a large language model aggregator where users may use the Site to access third-party application programming interfaces ("APIs") to use a variety of generative artificial intelligence models listed on the Site ("AI Models"). BasicRouter may add or remove AI Models from the Service at any time.

Eligibility

You must be at least 16 years of age, or the minimum age required in your jurisdiction, to use the Service. By agreeing to these Terms, you represent and warrant to us that: (a) you meet this age requirement; (b) you have not previously been suspended or removed from the Service; and (c) your registration and your use of the Service is in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. If you are under 18 years of age, you must have your parent or guardian's permission to use the Service. If you are using the Service on behalf of an entity, organization, or company, you represent and warrant that you have the authority to bind that organization to these Terms and you agree to be bound by these Terms on behalf of that organization.

Accounts and Registration

To access most features of the Service, you must register for an account. When you register for an account, you may be required to provide us or our authentication platform with some information about yourself, such as your email address or other contact information. You agree that the information you provide to us is accurate and that you will keep it accurate and up-to-date at all times. When you register, you will be asked to provide a password. You are solely responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account and password, and you accept responsibility for all activities that occur under your account. If you have reason to believe that your account is no longer secure, then you must immediately notify us at support@basicrouter.ai.

The Service allows creation of two account types: organizational accounts and individual accounts. An organizational account is managed by an administrative user ("Admin User") who can invite individuals from the Admin User's organization ("Authorized Users") to the organizational account. Authorized Users may only use the Service as configured by the Admin User, with such configurations which may include, without limitation, enabling prompt logging, chat logging, zero data retention, model training, and other settings. Authorized Users may also create separate individual accounts to access the Service.

Payment

4.1 Pre-Paid Credits; Refunds

Access to the Service, or to certain features of the Service, may require you to pay fees for pre-paid credits that are linked to your account ("Credits"), along with payment processing fees and transaction fees. Before you pay any fees, you will have an opportunity to review and accept the fees that you will be charged. Currently, BasicRouter requires users to purchase Credits to make API calls and access the Service, with a minimum and maximum purchase amount of $5 and $25,000 per transaction, respectively. Once purchased, refunds for unused Credits may be requested within twenty-four (24) hours from the time the transaction was processed. If no refund request is received within twenty-four (24) hours following the purchase, any unused Credits become non-refundable. Cryptocurrency payments are never refundable.

4.2 Credit Expiration; Auto Recharge

BasicRouter reserves the right to expire unused credits three hundred sixty-five (365) days after purchase. When purchasing Credits, you will have the option to automatically add Credits to your account by charging the payment method of your choosing when your available Credits are below a threshold amount you have set on your account ("Auto Recharge"). If you elect the Auto Recharge option, you authorize BasicRouter to automatically charge payments to your account. You may update or cancel Auto Recharge at any time through your account page.

4.3 Currency; Payment Processing

BasicRouter will charge the payment method you specify at the time of purchase. You authorize BasicRouter to charge all sums as described in these Terms, for the Service you select, to that payment method. BasicRouter accepts payment through our third-party payment processors, Stripe and Coinbase. All payments made through Stripe are in U.S. dollars, and payments made through Coinbase are through your crypto wallet. If you choose to pay using Coinbase, you represent and warrant that the cryptocurrency and source of funds for the cryptocurrency you use do not constitute the proceeds of a financial crime or any other crime under applicable law.

4.4 Changes to Fees

If BasicRouter changes the fees for the Service, including by adding additional fees or charges, BasicRouter will provide you advance notice of those changes. If you do not accept the changes, BasicRouter may discontinue providing the Service to you.

User Content

5.1 User Content Generally; Training Data

You may provide input into the Services, which may include images, data, text, and other types of work ("Input") and receive an output from the Services based on your Input ("Output", and collectively, the Input and Output are "User Content"). You retain copyright and any other proprietary rights that you may hold in the Input. Some AI Models may store or train on your Inputs for improving their own large language models and may allow you to opt-out of model training. Where possible, BasicRouter has opted out of model training with the AI Models it uses. BasicRouter is not liable for errors or misrepresentations made in any AI Model Terms.

5.2 Opt-In License for Prompt and Chat Logging

If you have opted into prompt logging in your account settings, model call logging, chat logging is also automatically enabled, and you grant BasicRouter a worldwide, revocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free right and license solely for storing and displaying your historical chat records to you, allowing you to review past conversations.

If you separately enable the "Allow my data to be used for AI model training" option, you additionally grant BasicRouter a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free right and license to use your de-identified user content for model optimization and training commercial purposes.

5.3 Opt-In License for Private Prompt Storage

Private Prompt Storage is a feature on the Service that allows you to privately save your User Content so you can review them later, such as for debugging purposes. If you have enabled Private Prompt Storage, you grant BasicRouter a worldwide, revocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid right and license to host, store, copy, and use your User Content solely for purposes of displaying the User Content to you.

5.4 License to Categorize Inputs

BasicRouter uses a hosted model for categorizing Inputs, which does not store or log any Inputs provided to it. In using the Service, you grant to BasicRouter a worldwide, perpetual, irrevocable, non-exclusive, royalty-free, fully paid right and license to use, host, reproduce, and prepare derivative works of, your Inputs in anonymized form, solely for tracking and sharing user metrics on the Site. Unless explicitly opted in to prompt logging, we do not store your Inputs after categorizing them.

5.5 Input Representations and Warranties

You are solely responsible for your Inputs and the consequences of providing Inputs. By providing Inputs, you affirm, represent, and warrant that:

• you are the creator and owner of the Inputs, or have the necessary licenses, rights, consents, and permissions to authorize BasicRouter to use, reproduce, and distribute your Inputs as necessary to exercise the licenses granted by you in this section, in the manner contemplated by BasicRouter, the Service, and these Terms; and
• your Inputs, and the use of your Inputs as contemplated by these Terms, does not and will not: (i) infringe, violate, or misappropriate any third-party right, including any copyright, trademark, patent, trade secret, moral right, privacy right, right of publicity, or any other intellectual property or proprietary right; (ii) slander, defame, libel, or invade the right of privacy, publicity or other property rights of any other person; or (iii) cause BasicRouter to violate any law or regulation.

5.6 Input and User Content Disclaimer

We are under no obligation to edit or control Inputs that you or other users post or publish, and will not be in any way responsible or liable for Inputs. BasicRouter may, however, at any time and without prior notice, screen, remove, edit, or block any Inputs that in our sole judgment violates these Terms or is otherwise objectionable or illegal. We expressly disclaim any and all liability in connection with User Content. For clarity, BasicRouter does not permit copyright-infringing activities on the Service. BasicRouter does not guarantee the accuracy or reliability of AI-generated Output. AI-generated content may contain inaccuracies and should not be relied upon as professional advice.

5.7 Location of Originating Requests

We strive to accurately provide to the AI Models the country of your originating request when accessing the Site using APIs. However, due to limitations of currently available technology, it is not always possible to accurately represent your country of origin, and this limitation may affect your ability to use the Service. You understand and agree that BasicRouter is not responsible for any incorrect location reporting to the AI Models.

5.8 Copyright of AI-Generated Content

AI content generated through this service, the related rights belong to you. However, it should be noted that the copyright protection of AI-generated content is still in a legal gray area, and we make no promises regarding the copyright protection of such content.

For scenarios where you use AI-generated content externally for commercial purposes, we hereby declare: the platform is not liable for any third-party infringement disputes arising from your external use of AI-generated content. We recommend that you seek professional legal advice in such scenarios.

Additionally, we have confirmed the IP protection policies of upstream AI providers (such as related indemnification commitments), but we do not assume responsibility beyond the scope of the provider's commitments for copyright disputes related to the training data of third-party models themselves.

Red Teaming

Any unauthorized Red Teaming will be flagged by BasicRouter's and AI Model providers' monitoring systems and are likely to result in account and access termination by AI Model providers. BasicRouter will review each request and approve or deny in writing, often within five (5) business days. Approval is granted on a case-by-case basis and is not guaranteed.
