API Terms

API Terms of Use

Please read these API terms of use (API terms) carefully before using Juro’s API (our API). By using our API, you agree to the API terms. If you don’t agree, don’t use our API.

General

In the API terms:

• we, us, our means Juro Online Limited (a company registered in England and Wales under company number 09684844 whose registered office is at 1 Long Lane, London SE1 4PG, United Kingdom).
  

• you or your means you and - if you’re using our API on behalf of a business or organisation- includes you and that organisation.
  

By using our API on behalf of any organisation, you represent and warrant that you are authorised to enter the API terms (a legally binding contract with us) on behalf of that organisation.

We may update the API terms at any time by updating the terms on this page or by notifying you using any reasonable means. Updates will take effect 10 days after we post them or earlier if we notify you directly about the update. Please check back regularly for updates. If you don’t agree to the updated API terms, stop using our API before the update takes effect.

Our API and how we work with developers

You can access our API and related documentation at api-docs.juro.com.

Our API is intended to be used as an interface between the Juro platform and applications or services provided by you. When you use our API, you may access or use certain content, materials and data made available via our API - we call this API data.

These API terms

We mainly care about protecting the Juro platform, Juro users and our API.

These API terms set out your rights and obligations when you use our API to interface between the Juro platform and your application and when you use API data.

If you use our other products or services (for example, if your organisation is a customer of ours), these are governed by different terms and conditions. If there is an inconsistency between those other terms and conditions and the API terms, the other terms and conditions take priority.

If the API terms do not specifically say that you can do something using our API, the API data or the Juro platform, then you cannot do that thing.

Access to our API

You agree:

• to access our API using only the API key that we give you;
  

• to keep your API key secure and that you are responsible for any use of our API using your API key; and
  

• that you must not ask any Juro user to provide any passwords, usernames or other login credentials that they use to access the Juro platform directly to you (although you may store these details within our API in accordance with our API documentation).
  

How you may use our API

You must:

• get consent from each Juro user to allow your application to access the Juro platform through the API; and
  

• ensure your use of our API complies with:
  

• the API terms;
  

• all documentation relating to our API and the Juro platform that we make available to you (as we update it from time to time);
  

• any terms applicable to your application;
  

• any terms applicable to the Juro platform;
  

• any other terms agreed between us and you; and
  

• all applicable laws.
  

What you must not use our API for

You must not use our API to send spam or to interfere with or degrade our services in any way.

You must not use our API for any unlawful purpose or to promote any unlawful act, or in any way which:

• makes any private information on the Juro platform publicly available in your application;

• modify, add to, or otherwise enhance our API;

• observe, study or test the functioning of our API or any part of it;
  

• infringe or copy our code or content or the design of the Juro platform, our API and any of our other intellectual property rights.

You must implement and use any releases we make as soon as possible and, in any event, within any time period we specify.

We grant you a non-exclusive, revocable, and non-transferable licence, without a right to sublicense to end users, to download, copy, display, view, and use the API data solely to enable the interface between the Juro platform and applications or services provided by you, save that you must not:

You may disclose our confidential information as required by law.
