IF THERE IS A CONFLICT BETWEEN THESE TERMS AND ADDITIONAL TERMS APPLICABLE TO A GIVEN API, THE ADDITIONAL TERMS WILL CONTROL FOR THAT CONFLICT. COLLECTIVELY, WE REFER TO THE TERMS BELOW, ANY ADDITIONAL TERMS, ANY TERMS WITHIN THE ACCOMPANYING API DOCUMENTATION, AND ANY APPLICABLE POLICIES AND GUIDELINES AS THE "TERMS."

Section 1: Account and Registration
- Accepting the Terms
You may not use the APIs and may not accept the Terms if (a) you are not of legal age to form a binding contract with Anywhere, or (b) you are a person barred from using or receiving the APIs under the applicable laws of the United States or other countries including the country in which you reside or from which you use the APIs.
- Entity Level Acceptance
If you are using the APIs on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you have authority to bind that entity to the Terms and by accepting the Terms, you are doing so on behalf of that entity (and all references to "you" in the Terms refer to that entity).
- Registration
In order to access certain APIs you may be required to provide certain information (such as identification or contact details) as part of the registration process for the APIs, or as part of your continued use of the APIs. Any registration information you give to Anywhere will always be accurate and up to date and you are responsible for informing us promptly of any updates. Anywhere reserves the right to terminate inactive registrations.

Section 2: Using Our APIs
- Your End Users
You will require your end users to comply with (and not knowingly enable them to violate) applicable law, regulation, and the Terms.
- Compliance with Law, Third Party Rights, and Other Anywhere Terms of Service
You will comply with all applicable law, regulation, and third party rights (including without limitation laws regarding the import or export of data or software, privacy, and local laws). You will not use the APIs to encourage or promote illegal activity or violation of third party rights. You will not violate any other terms of service with Anywhere (or its affiliates).
- Permitted Access
You will only access (or attempt to access) an API by the means described in the documentation of that API. If Anywhere assigns you developer credentials (e.g. client IDs), you must use them with the applicable APIs. You will not misrepresent or mask either your identity or your API Client's identity when using the APIs or developer accounts. Separate developer credentials may be issued for (a) internal development and test use of the APIs only by you (“Test Use”), and (b) production use of the APIs by you (“Production Use”). Test Use permits you to use the APIs (including the applicable data provided) only by you (and the internal employees of your organization if an entity) solely for the purposes of your development, testing and demonstrating to Anywhere your API Client. Production Use is permitted only pursuant to a separate agreement between you and Anywhere. You shall use the APIs only to the extent expressly authorized by Anywhere.
- API Limitations
Anywhere may set and enforce limits on your use of the APIs (e.g. limiting the number of API requests that you may make or the number of users you may serve), in our sole discretion. You agree to, and will not attempt to circumvent, such limitations which may be documented with each API. If you would like to use any API beyond these limits, you must obtain Anywhere's express consent (and Anywhere may decline such request or condition acceptance on your agreement to additional terms and/or charges for that use). To seek such approval, contact the relevant Anywhere API team for information (e.g., by using the Anywhere API Portal).
- Open Source Software
Some of the software required by or included in our APIs may be offered under an open source license. Open source software licenses constitute separate written agreements. For certain APIs, open source software is listed in the documentation. To the limited extent the open source software license expressly supersedes the Terms, the open source license instead sets forth your agreement with Anywhere for the applicable open source software.
- Communication with Anywhere
We may send you certain communications in connection with your use of the APIs. Please review the such communications for information about opting out of certain types of communication. Opting out of certain communications may require you to cancel your registration and terminate your use of the APIs.
- Feedback
If you provide feedback or suggestions about our APIs, then we (and those we allow) may use such information without obligation to you.
- Non-Exclusivity
The Terms are non-exclusive. You acknowledge that Anywhere may develop products or services that may compete with the API Clients or any other products or services.
Section 3: Your API Clients
- API Clients and Monitoring
The APIs are designed to help you enhance your websites, products, services, applications or other assets ("API Client(s)"). YOU AGREE THAT ANYWHERE MAY MONITOR USE OF THE APIs TO ENSURE QUALITY, IMPROVE ANYWHERE APIs, PRODUCTS AND SERVICES, AND VERIFY YOUR COMPLIANCE WITH THE TERMS. This monitoring may include Anywhere accessing and using your API Client, for example to identify security issues that could affect Anywhere or its users. You will not interfere with this monitoring. Anywhere may use any technical means to overcome such interference. Anywhere may suspend access to the APIs by you or your API Client without notice if we reasonably believe that you are in violation of the Terms.
- Security
You will use commercially reasonable efforts to protect user information collected by your API Client, including personally identifiable information ("PII"), from unauthorized access or use and will promptly report to your users and to Anywhere any unauthorized access or use of such information to the extent required by applicable law
- Ownership
Anywhere does not acquire ownership in your API Clients, and by using our APIs, you do not acquire ownership of any rights in our APIs or the content that is accessed through our APIs. All right, title and interest in any modification, enhancement or derivative work of any API created during your use shall automatically vest in Anywhere and you shall execute any documents requested by Anywhere related thereto.
- User Privacy and API Clients
You will comply with all applicable privacy laws and regulations including those applying to PII. You will provide and adhere to a privacy policy for your API Client that clearly and accurately describes to users of your API Client what user information you collect and how you use and share such information (including for advertising) with Anywhere and third parties.
Section 4: Prohibitions and Confidentiality
- API Prohibitions
When using our APIs, you may not (or allow those acting on your behalf to):
- Sublicense our APIs for use by a third party. Consequently, you will not create an API Client that functions substantially the same as any of our APIs and offer it for use by third parties without Anywhere's express prior written consent.
- Perform an action with the intent of introducing to Anywhere products and services any viruses, worms, defects, Trojan horses, malware, or any items of a destructive nature.

- Reverse engineer or attempt to extract the source code from any API or any related software, except to the extent such use is expressly allowed by applicable law.
- Use the APIs for any activities where the use or failure of the APIs could lead to death, personal injury, or environmental damage (such as the operation of nuclear facilities, air traffic control, or life support systems).
- Use the APIs to submit to Anywhere, or process or store, any data that (a) any information relating, directly or indirectly, to an identified or identifiable natural person located in the European Economic Area (“EEA”), Switzerland and/or the United Kingdom, and/or (b) is subject to the International Traffic in Arms Regulations maintained by the U.S. Department of State. (Anywhere expressly notifies you that the Anywhere environment for test use of the APIs is not GDPR- compliant.).
- Remove, obscure, or alter any Anywhere terms of service or any links to or notices of those terms.
Unless otherwise specified in writing by Anywhere, Anywhere does not intend use of the APIs to create obligations under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, as amended ("HIPAA"), and makes no representations that the APIs satisfy HIPAA requirements. If you are (or become) a "covered entity" or "business associate" as defined in HIPAA, you will not use the APIs for any purpose or in any manner involving transmitting protected health information to Anywhere unless you have received prior written consent to such use from Anywhere.
- Confidential Matters
- Developer credentials (such as passwords, keys, and client IDs) are intended to be used by you and identify your API Client. You will keep your credentials confidential and make reasonable efforts to prevent and discourage other API Clients from using your credentials. Developer credentials may not be embedded in open source projects.
- Our communications to you and our APIs may contain Anywhere confidential information. Anywhere confidential information includes the APIs and any materials, communications, and information that are marked confidential or that would normally be considered confidential under the circumstances. If you receive any such information, then you will not disclose it to any third party without Anywhere's prior written consent. Anywhere confidential information does not include information that you independently developed, that was rightfully given to you by a third party without confidentiality obligation, or that becomes public through no fault of your own. You may disclose Anywhere confidential information when compelled to do so by law if you provide us reasonable prior notice, unless a court orders that we not receive notice.
Section 5: Content

Our APIs may contain some content (such as text, images, videos, audio, or software). Content accessible through our APIs for Test Use is the property of Anywhere and may only be used by you for the Test Use purposes as described herein.
- Submission of Content
Some of our APIs allow you to submit content to our APIs, even in test circumstances. Anywhere does not acquire any ownership of any intellectual property rights in the content that you submit to our APIs through your API Client, except as expressly provided in the Terms. However, you give Anywhere a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, sublicensable, royalty-free, and non-exclusive license to Use content submitted, posted, or displayed to or from the APIs through your API Client. "Use" means use, host, store, modify, communicate, and publish. Before you submit content to our APIs through your API Client, you will ensure that you have the necessary rights (including the necessary rights from your end users) to grant us the afore-mentioned license. You are responsible for complying with all laws and regulations related to the use, confidentiality, integrity and availability of your submitted content.
- Retrieval of content
When a user's non-public content is obtained through the APIs, you may not expose that content to other users or to third parties without explicit opt-in consent from that user.
- Data Portability
Anywhere supports data portability. For as long as you use or store any user data that you obtained through the APIs, you agree to enable your users to export their equivalent data to other services or applications of their choice in a way that's substantially as fast and easy as exporting such data from Anywhere products and services, subject to applicable laws, and you agree that you will not make that data available to third parties who do not also abide by this obligation.
- Prohibitions on Content
Unless expressly permitted by the content owner or by applicable law, you will not, and will not permit your end users or others acting on your behalf to, do the following with content returned from the APIs:
- Scrape, build databases, or otherwise create permanent copies of such content, or keep cached copies longer than permitted by the cache header;
- Copy, translate, modify, create a derivative work of, sell, lease, lend, convey, distribute, publicly display, or sublicense to any third party;

- DISCLAIMER. WE PROVIDE THE APIs ON AN “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE” BASIS. WE MAKE NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES WITH RESPECT TO THE APIs AND, AND WE DO NOT WARRANT THAT THE APIs WILL BE SECURE, UNINTERRUPTED, TIMELY, OR ERRORFREE.

- U.S. Federal Agency Entities
The APIs were developed solely at private expense and are commercial computer software and related documentation within the meaning of the applicable U.S. Federal Acquisition Regulation and agency supplements thereto.
- General Legal Terms
We each agree to contract in the English language. If we provide a translation of the Terms, we do so for your convenience only and the English Terms will solely govern our relationship. The Terms do not create any third party beneficiary rights or any agency, partnership, or joint venture. Nothing in the Terms will limit either party's ability to seek injunctive relief. We are not liable for failure or delay in performance to the extent caused by circumstances beyond our reasonable control. If you do not comply with the Terms, and Anywhere does not take action right away, this does not mean that Anywhere is giving up any rights that it may have (such as taking action in the future). If it turns out that a particular term is not enforceable, this will not affect any other terms. The Terms are the entire agreement between you and Anywhere relating to its subject and supersede any prior or contemporaneous agreements on that subject. For information about how to contact Anywhere, please visit our Contact Us.
The parties are independent contractors, and there is no partnership, joint venture, employment, franchise or agency relationship created by the Agreement. Neither party will have the power to bind the other or incur obligations on the other party’s behalf without the other party’s prior written consent. You may not assign any of your rights in the Agreement, and any such attempt is void, but we may assign our rights to any of our affiliates, or to any successor in interest of any business associated with the Services. A waiver of any provision of the Agreement must be made in writing to be effective, and our waiver of a breach of any provision or right contained in the Agreement will not constitute a continuing waiver or waive any subsequent breach or right. You agree to comply with all U.S. export control regulations, anti-corruption laws and embargoes (including without limitation the U.S. Export Administration Regulations (15 CFR, Chapter VII)) with respect to the Services. If any provision of the Agreement is unenforceable, that provision will be modified to render it enforceable to the extent possible to affect the parties’ intention, and the remaining provisions will not be affected.
