Terms of Service

1. The service

FreeOpenClaw hosts a personal OpenClaw instance for you, with its own data space and a console to start, stop and manage it. OpenClaw is open-source software developed by its own project and provided under its own license. We are not affiliated with or endorsed by the OpenClaw project.

2. Free hosting and capacity

• Hosting is currently free. Free hosting depends on available capacity and is subject to limits on instances, CPU, memory, storage and activity, as shown in the console.
• When capacity is unavailable, we may queue or decline new instances. We may limit, stop or reclaim resources used by inactive instances after giving notice.
• Features and limits may change. Paid plans marked as planned are not available until we announce them, and they will come with their own terms.

3. Your account

• Provide a valid email address and keep your sign-in secure. You are responsible for activity under your account.
• One person may hold one account. Do not create multiple accounts to obtain more free resources.
• Access links to your instance work like passwords. Do not share them.
• You must be at least 16 years old, or the age of digital consent where you live, to use the service.

4. Your model provider and API key

• You connect OpenClaw to a model provider using your own API key. Your use of that provider is governed by its terms, and the provider bills you directly.
• You are responsible for all charges incurred with your API key, including charges from automated or scheduled tasks you set up in OpenClaw. We recommend setting spending limits with your provider.
• We are not responsible for the provider's charges, availability or model outputs.

5. Your content and your agent's actions

• You keep ownership of the configuration, conversations and files in your instance. You allow us to store, process and transmit them only as needed to run the service.
• OpenClaw can act on your behalf, for example by browsing websites, running commands or sending messages. You are responsible for how you configure it and for the actions it takes, as if you had taken them yourself.

6. Acceptable use

You must not use the service, or allow your instance to be used, to:

• break the law or infringe the rights of others, including intellectual property and privacy rights;
• send spam or phishing, distribute malware, or commit fraud;
• attack, scan or gain unauthorized access to any system, including other users' instances or our infrastructure;
• try to escape your instance's sandbox, bypass limits or interfere with the service;
• mine cryptocurrency, run a public proxy or VPN, or perform abusive high-volume scraping;
• create or share content that exploits or harms children, or that promotes violence or harassment;
• resell, sublicense or provide the hosting to third parties.

7. Suspension and termination

• We may stop or suspend an instance or account that breaks these terms, puts the service or others at risk, or exceeds its limits. Where practical, we will tell you why and give you a chance to fix the problem.
• You can stop using the service and delete your instances at any time.
• If we end your access, we may delete your instance data after a reasonable notice period, or immediately where the law requires it or to stop serious abuse.

8. Data and backups

Stopping an instance keeps its data; deleting it removes the data permanently. Stored data is not a backup, so keep your own copies of anything important. To the extent permitted by law, we are not responsible for lost data.

9. Changes to or ending the service

We may change, suspend or discontinue the service or free hosting. If we plan to end free hosting or the service, we will give reasonable advance notice when practical so that you can retrieve your data.

10. Disclaimers

The service is provided “as is” and “as available”. To the extent permitted by law, we make no warranties of any kind, including about availability, fitness for a particular purpose, or the accuracy of AI outputs.

11. Limitation of liability

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential or punitive damages, or for lost profits, data or goodwill. Our total liability for any claim relating to the service is limited to the greater of the amount you paid us in the 12 months before the claim or USD 50. Nothing in these terms limits liability that cannot be limited by law.

12. Indemnity

You agree to cover our reasonable costs from claims by others that arise from your content, your instance's actions or your breach of these terms.

13. Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the place where the operator of FreeOpenClaw is established, without regard to its conflict-of-law rules. If you are a consumer, you keep any mandatory protections given to you by the laws of the country where you live.

14. Changes to these terms

We may update these terms. We will post the new version here with a new date and notify you of significant changes before they take effect. If you keep using the service after that, you accept the updated terms.
