Terms of Service
The terms governing use of the Vimiana marketplace and API — for both consumers calling capabilities and suppliers publishing them.
Last updated 22 June 2026 · Draft
Draft — pending review
This is a working draft, not final or legally binding wording. It is published so the platform's real behaviour can be reviewed; final wording is pending operator and counsel review before the public launch.
1. About these terms
Vimiana is a marketplace and API control plane for agent-callable utilities — bounded data packs, hosted APIs and workflow recipes that an agent can discover and invoke over one API. These terms form an agreement between you and the operator of Vimiana (“Vimiana”, “we”) and apply whenever you access the service, the website or the API.
The service is currently offered as a pilot. By creating an account or calling the API you accept these terms. If you are using Vimiana on behalf of an organisation, you confirm you are authorised to bind that organisation.
2. Accounts, organisations and API keys
Access requires an account; programmatic access requires an API key issued to your organisation. You are responsible for all activity under your account and keys, for keeping keys secret, and for revoking keys you no longer trust. Notify us promptly of any unauthorised use.
Organisation members hold roles (owner, admin, member) that determine what they can do — managing keys, spend caps, payouts and billing settings. Owners and admins are responsible for the members they invite.
3. Consumers — billing and wallet
Consumers pre-fund a wallet and are billed per successful invocation at the price published at the time of the call. A call that fails for a technical reason is not charged — the reservation is released and no balance is consumed.
- Prices are shown to consumers as the all-in customer price. How that price is split between supplier and platform is not a consumer-facing figure.
- Organisations may set monthly spend caps and per-key budgets; a call that would exceed a cap is refused before any charge.
- Wallet top-ups and automatic top-ups are described in the product documentation.
4. Suppliers — listing and payouts
Suppliers publish capabilities with a declared input/output schema, pricing class, permission tier and usage rights. Each listing passes a publication gate (schema, risk and evaluation checks) before it goes public, and suppliers are verified before they can earn.
- Suppliers earn on each successful call. The platform commission applicable to a listing is fixed at the time the listing is approved and does not change retroactively for that version.
- Earnings are paid out on the platform's published schedule (currently weekly), subject to a risk-based holding period and a minimum payout threshold; amounts below the threshold carry forward.
- Refunds, disputes and chargebacks may be deducted from a supplier's balance (including as a clawback against future earnings) where a call is reversed.
Suppliers warrant that they hold the rights to the data and services they list and that those listings comply with the platform policies.
5. Acceptable use
You may not use Vimiana for unlawful, abusive or rights-infringing activity, to circumvent metering, security or spend controls, or to publish capabilities that breach the platform policies. Capabilities are subject to permission tiers and policy review; higher-risk tiers are not publishable during the pilot.
We may suspend or remove listings, keys or accounts that breach these terms or that present a security, legal or abuse risk.
6. Disputes and refunds
Consumers can raise a dispute on a charged invocation within the published dispute window. Resolved disputes credit the consumer's balance and are reconciled against the relevant supplier. Abuse of the dispute process (for example, repeated bad-faith disputes) may result in caps, cooldowns or suspension.
Provisional — pending the tax / merchant-of-record rulingWhether a resolved dispute or refund returns value as platform credit or to the original payment method, and the timing of any such refund, depends on the merchant-of-record and tax position and will be finalised before real payments are enabled. See the refund & dispute policy.7. Intellectual property and data
Suppliers retain rights in their capabilities and the data they provide, and grant Vimiana the rights needed to host, meter and deliver those capabilities to consumers. Consumers retain rights in the inputs they submit and the outputs they receive, subject to the supplier's declared usage rights for a given capability. The Vimiana name, brand and platform software remain ours.
How we handle personal data is described in the privacy policy.
8. Availability, warranties and liability
During the pilot the service is provided “as is” and “as available”, without warranties of any kind to the extent permitted by law. We do not warrant that any capability will be uninterrupted, error-free, or fit for a particular purpose; capabilities are provided by third-party suppliers and their results are their responsibility.
Provisional — pending the tax / merchant-of-record rulingThe limitations and exclusions of liability, and any consumer-protection carve-outs, are being reviewed with counsel and will be finalised before public launch.9. Changes and termination
We may change the service and these terms. Material changes will be reflected by an updated “last updated” date and, where appropriate, additional notice; continued use after a change constitutes acceptance. You may stop using the service and close your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access for breach of these terms or for legal or security reasons.
