Terms of Service
Welcome to YATFA. These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your access to and use of the YATFA website (yatfa.com), command-line interface (CLI) tools, API, and associated autonomous AI agent development services (collectively, the "Service").
Please read these Terms carefully before using the Service. By accessing or using the Service, you agree to be bound by these Terms. If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Service.
1. Acceptance and Eligibility
By using the Service, you represent and warrant that:
- You are at least 18 years of age (or the age of majority in your jurisdiction).
- You have the legal capacity and authority to enter into these Terms, both personally and on behalf of any entity or organization you represent.
- Your use of the Service does not violate any applicable law or regulation.
- You are acting for purposes relating to your trade, business, craft, or profession, and not as a consumer. The Service is offered to businesses and professional users only.
2. Description of Service
YATFA provides an autonomous AI agent development platform where software agents (Planner, Worker, Reviewer, and Researcher) assist in software development tasks, such as backlog management, code implementation, automated code reviews, and codebase improvement suggestions.
The Service integrates with third-party hosting providers (primarily GitHub) to read repository data, run tests in isolated Docker containers, and submit code changes via Pull Requests (PRs).
Model Providers: Agent tasks are executed using third-party large language model providers, which we select and may change at our discretion. For customer workloads we route to providers operating in the United States or the European Union, and to providers whose commercial terms restrict the use of customer data for model training. We do not guarantee that any particular model or provider will be used, or remain available, for any given task.
3. Account Registration and Security
Authentication: To access certain features of the Service, you must register by connecting your GitHub account via OAuth or installing our GitHub App.
Account Responsibility: You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activities that occur under your account.
Unauthorized Use: You agree to notify us immediately of any unauthorized use of your account or any other breach of security. YATFA will not be liable for any loss or damage arising from your failure to comply with this security obligation.
4. Intellectual Property and Content Ownership
4.1. Your Code and Repositories (Customer Content)
Ownership: You retain all ownership, intellectual property rights, and title to your source code, repositories, and any files or data you connect to the Service. YATFA claims no ownership over your code.
Limited License to Operate: By connecting your repositories, you grant YATFA a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free, limited license to access, read, and execute your code solely for the purpose of running the AI agents and performing the requested development tasks within our isolated runtime environments.
No Model Training: YATFA will not use your source code or repository data to train any artificial intelligence or machine learning models.
4.2. YATFA Intellectual Property
The Service, including its website, design, logo, CLI tools, proprietary orchestration workflows, database schemas, and underlying software, is the intellectual property of YATFA and its licensors. You may not copy, modify, reverse engineer, or distribute any part of our platform without our prior written consent.
5. AI-Generated Output and Disclaimers (Important)
5.1. Nature of AI Outputs
You acknowledge that the code, pull requests, reviews, and proposals generated by YATFA's AI agents (collectively, "Outputs") are produced by artificial intelligence. While we implement multi-layer quality controls (including agent self-tests and automated reviews), AI-generated code may contain bugs, security vulnerabilities, or logical errors.
5.2. Your Responsibility to Review
Final Approval: YATFA operates on an approval-based model. You have final oversight and sole responsibility for reviewing and merging any Pull Requests or applying any changes proposed by the agents.
Liability for Merged Code: Once you merge a Pull Request into your repository, you assume full responsibility for that code. YATFA shall not be held liable for any bugs, service disruptions, security breaches, data loss, or other damages caused by code generated by the Service and merged by you or your team.
6. Billing, Compute Credits, and Refunds
Subscription Fees: Access to certain plans or features requires a paid subscription. All fees are disclosed prior to purchase.
Compute Credit Metering: Usage is metered in Compute Credits — YATFA's unit of account, derived from the compute (LLM tokens) consumed by agents during tasks. Certain tiers may bill or limit usage based on Compute Credit consumption. You agree to monitor your usage metrics via the YATFA dashboard.
Your Own Model Credentials (BYOK): Where you configure the Service to use your own model-provider credentials, all charges incurred with that provider are solely between you and that provider. YATFA does not set, control, or receive those charges and is not responsible for them, including where the cost exceeds your expectations.
Cost Predictability: Agents work iteratively. A single task may involve repeated attempts, review cycles, test runs, and revisions, so the number of tokens consumed for a given task is not predictable in advance and can be substantially higher than a single request would suggest. Your choice of model and configuration materially affects this cost. YATFA's spend controls — Compute Credit metering, project budgets, and caps — apply only to usage on capacity provided by YATFA, and do not apply to usage on your own credentials. If you use your own credentials, setting spend limits with your provider is your responsibility.
Refund Policy: Unless required by applicable law, fees paid to YATFA are non-refundable.
7. Prohibited Conduct
You agree not to use the Service to:
- Upload, process, or integrate any code or material that is illegal, defamatory, infringing on third-party intellectual property, or malicious (including viruses, malware, or exploits).
- Attempt to bypass, disable, or interfere with our Docker sandbox environment, API rate limits, or security controls.
- Use the Service to generate code designed to cause harm, carry out cyberattacks, or engage in fraudulent activities.
- Reverse engineer, decompile, or extract the underlying model parameters or orchestration algorithms of the YATFA platform.
- Submit, connect, or process data that is subject to special regulatory regimes, including: technical data controlled under export-control regulations (such as ITAR or the EAR Commerce Control List); protected health information; payment card data; classified or government-restricted information; or personal data of categories requiring heightened protection. The Service is not designed or offered for these categories, and you are responsible for ensuring that the repositories you connect do not contain them.
You represent that you have all rights necessary to submit the code and data you connect to the Service, and that doing so does not violate any law, regulation, or third-party agreement applicable to you.
8. Disclaimer of Warranties
THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED ON AN "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" BASIS, WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EITHER EXPRESS OR IMPLIED. TO THE FULLEST EXTENT PERMISSIBLE UNDER APPLICABLE LAW, YATFA DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, TITLE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.
YATFA DOES NOT WARRANT THAT THE SERVICE WILL BE UNINTERRUPTED, ERROR-FREE, SECURE, OR THAT THE AI-GENERATED OUTPUTS WILL BE ACCURATE, RELIABLE, OR FREE OF DEFECTS.
9. Limitation of Liability
TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY APPLICABLE LAW, IN NO EVENT SHALL YATFA, ITS DIRECTORS, EMPLOYEES, OR AGENTS BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO LOSS OF PROFITS, DATA, USE, GOODWILL, OR OTHER INTANGIBLE LOSSES, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH:
- YOUR USE OF OR INABILITY TO USE THE SERVICE;
- ANY CODE, ERROR, OR VULNERABILITY GENERATED BY THE AI AGENTS AND SUBSEQUENTLY MERGED BY YOU;
- UNAUTHORIZED ACCESS TO OR ALTERATION OF YOUR REPOSITORIES;
- ANY INTERRUPTION OR DOWNTIME OF THE SERVICE.
OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIMS UNDER THESE TERMS SHALL NOT EXCEED THE TOTAL AMOUNT PAID BY YOU TO YATFA FOR THE SERVICES IN THE TWELVE (12) MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM.
10. Termination
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate your account and access to the Service at our sole discretion, without prior notice, if we believe you have violated these Terms or engaged in behavior harmful to the platform or other users.
The Service is provided on an early-access basis. We may decline to provide, or may discontinue, the Service to any applicant or customer at our discretion, including where we determine that we cannot meet the regulatory, compliance, or data-handling requirements applicable to that customer.
You may terminate your account at any time by disconnecting the YATFA GitHub App and canceling your subscription through the YATFA dashboard.
Effect of Termination: On termination, agents stop working on your repositories and access to the dashboard ends. Work already delivered as pull requests remains in your repository and is unaffected. You may request deletion of your account data as described in our Privacy Policy; we retain what we must for legal, tax, and accounting purposes and nothing beyond that. Revoking the GitHub App's access at any time immediately stops all agent interaction with your code, whether or not you close your account.
11. Indemnification
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless YATFA and its officers, employees, and agents from any third-party claims, losses, liabilities, and reasonable legal costs arising out of: (a) your breach of these Terms, including the representations in Sections 1 and 7; (b) the code, data, or materials you connect to or process through the Service; or (c) your use of code produced by the Service after you have reviewed and merged it. We will notify you of any such claim and allow you to control its defense, and we will not settle it without your consent.
12. Third-Party Services
The Service depends on third parties, including your source-control provider, model providers, and payment processors. We do not control those services and are not responsible for their availability, performance, changes to their terms, or their acts and omissions. Your use of them is governed by your agreement with them. If a third party we depend on becomes unavailable or changes materially, the Service may be interrupted or altered.
13. Feedback
If you send us suggestions, feature requests, or other feedback about the Service, you grant us a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free licence to use it without restriction or obligation to you. This applies only to feedback you choose to send us about the Service; it does not apply to your source code or repository content, which remain yours under Section 4.
14. Changes to These Terms
We may update these Terms as the Service develops or the law requires. For material changes we will give reasonable advance notice by email or through the dashboard, and the updated Terms will state a new effective date. If you do not accept a change, your remedy is to stop using the Service and close your account before the change takes effect. Continued use after that date means you accept the updated Terms.
15. General Provisions
Severability: If any provision of these Terms is held unenforceable, that provision will be limited or removed to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining provisions stay in full effect.
Entire Agreement: These Terms and our Privacy Policy are the entire agreement between you and YATFA regarding the Service, and replace any prior understanding on that subject.
Assignment: You may not assign or transfer these Terms without our written consent. We may assign them to an affiliate or in connection with a merger, acquisition, or sale of assets.
No Waiver: If we do not enforce a provision on one occasion, we do not give up the right to enforce it later.
Force Majeure: Neither party is liable for delay or failure to perform caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including outages at infrastructure or model providers, network failures, and acts of government.
Survival: Sections concerning ownership, disclaimers, limitation of liability, indemnification, and the representations you make about the data you connect survive termination of your account.
16. Governing Law and Jurisdiction
These Terms shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of Delaware, USA, without regard to its conflict of law provisions. Any legal action or proceeding arising under these Terms shall be brought exclusively in the courts located in Wilmington, Delaware.
