Terms of Service
Clear, practical, and transparent terms. We keep our rules reasonable so you can focus on learning and building great software.
In Plain English
TL;DR- Build with our code: You are free to adapt, modify, and use tutorial code in your own personal and commercial projects.
- Don't rip off our original materials: Please do not re-publish, resell, or distribute our written guides or videos wholesale as your own.
- Code is educational: We build real-world examples, but always review and test code thoroughly before deploying to production.
Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using LoopCursive (the website, code snippets, tutorials, and community materials), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree with any part of these terms, please discontinue using the website.
Code & Content Use
We believe open educational resources empower developers to build better software:
- Code Snippets & Projects: You are granted a worldwide, royalty-free, non-exclusive license to study, copy, modify, and incorporate code snippets and example projects into your own personal or commercial software.
- Written Guides & Media: The text, layout, illustrations, brand marks, and video tutorials on LoopCursive are copyrighted property of LoopCursive. You may not re-publish, re-distribute, or mirror complete tutorials or videos behind a paywall without explicit prior written consent.
- Fair Attribution: Attribution is appreciated (e.g., linking back to LoopCursive in your repository), but not strictly mandatory for snippet usage in production code.
User Accounts & Conduct
You may create an account on LoopCursive using an email and password or via third-party OAuth providers (Google or GitHub). By creating an account, you agree to:
- Provide accurate basic account details (name and email address).
- Maintain the confidentiality of your login credentials and accept responsibility for activities under your account.
- Refrain from engaging in automated scraping, denial-of-service attempts, unauthorized vulnerability scanning, or abusing platform APIs.
We reserve the right to suspend or terminate accounts that violate these rules or engage in malicious behavior.
Free Access & Uptime
Our core tutorial library is free, always. You do not need a paid subscription to read guides or study the code.
We aim to maintain high availability and reliability, but LoopCursive is provided without service-level agreements (SLAs). Periodic maintenance or unexpected hosting outages may occasionally occur.
Disclaimers & "As-Is" Code
All content, code samples, architecture patterns, and tutorials on LoopCursive are provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis, without warranties of any kind, either express or implied.
While we test tutorials thoroughly against modern environments, software libraries and ecosystems evolve rapidly. You are solely responsible for testing, validating, and verifying the security, reliability, and fitness of any code before running it in a production environment.
Limitation of Liability
To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, LoopCursive and its creators shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages resulting from your access to, use of, or inability to use the platform, code snippets, or tutorials.
Changes & Contact
We may periodically update these terms to reflect new features or legal requirements. Material updates will be indicated by the "Last Updated" timestamp at the top of this page.
