Apollo GraphQL Website Terms of Service
Effective starting: July 23, 2024
These Apollo GraphQL Website Terms of Service (these “Terms”) govern your access to and use of all Apollo-
branded publicly available websites, including those on apollographql.com, as well as any other pages that link
to these Terms (collectively, the “Site”). These Terms do not govern your access to or use of Apollo’s products
or services (including but not limited to free access or trials, open-source or source-available offerings,
GraphOS, Apollo Federation, Dedicated, or any related support services), which are subject to Apollo’s Self-
Service Terms, Enterprise Agreement, or other applicable service agreements or relevant licenses.
PLEASE READ THESE TERMS AND THE APOLLO GRAPHQL PRIVACY POLICY (“PRIVACY POLICY”) CAREFULLY,
AS THE PRIVACY POLICY IS INCORPORATED BY REFERENCE INTO THESE TERMS. BY ACCESSING OR USING
THE SITE, YOU REPRESENT THAT YOU ARE AT LEAST 18 YEARS OLD, HAVE READ AND UNDERSTOOD THESE
TERMS, AND AGREE TO BE LEGALLY BOUND BY THEM. IF YOU DO NOT AGREE TO ALL OF THESE TERMS, DO
NOT ACCESS OR USE THE SITE. WE RECOMMEND PRINTING A COPY OF THESE TERMS FOR YOUR RECORDS.
Throughout these Terms, “we,” “us,” “our,” and “Apollo” refer to Apollo Graph, Inc. and our affiliated
companies, and “you,” “your,” or “yours” refer to you personally (the individual who reads and agrees to be
bound by these Terms) and, if you access the Site on behalf of a legal entity, that entity as well. If you are
using the Site on behalf of an entity, you represent and warrant that you are authorized to accept these Terms
on the entity’s behalf, and by accepting these Terms, you bind the entity to them.
Subject to your compliance with these Terms, and for as long as Apollo permits you to access and use the
Site, you may view content and download materials that Apollo specifically makes available for downloading
from the Site (e.g., user documentation), provided you keep intact all copyright and other proprietary notices.
These materials may only be used for informational purposes and for personal or internal business use.
Trademarks
Any trademarks, logos, and service marks (“Marks”) displayed on the Site are the property of Apollo or other
third parties. Unless expressly stated otherwise by Apollo or the respective third party, you are not permitted
to use these Marks without the prior written consent of Apollo or the respective third party. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, Apollo may provide separate trademark policies and branding guidelines at its sole discretion.
Apollo Content
The Site contains or may contain, without limit, HTML, applications, messages, text, files, images, photos,
video, sounds, profiles, works of authorship, and other content from Apollo or its licensors (collectively,
“Content”). The Site and its Content are protected by copyright, trademark, trade secret, and other laws. As
between you and Apollo, Apollo owns and retains all rights in the Site and the Content. Apollo grants you a
limited, revocable, non-sublicensable license to access, display, and perform the Content (excluding any
computer code) solely for your personal, non-commercial use, and only as necessary to access and use the
Site. Except as expressly permitted by Apollo in these Terms or on the Site, you may not copy, download,
stream, capture, reproduce, duplicate, archive, upload, modify, translate, create derivative works based upon,
publish, broadcast, transmit, retransmit, distribute, perform, display, sell, or otherwise use or transfer any
Content. You may not remove, alter, bypass, avoid, interfere with, or circumvent any copyright, trademark, or
other proprietary notice on the Content or any digital rights management mechanism, device, or other content
protection or access control measure associated with the Content.
Third-Party Services
The Site provides or may provide links to other websites, applications, resources, advertisements, content, or
other products or services created, hosted, or made available by third parties (“Third-Party Service(s)”).
These third parties may use other third parties to provide portions of the Third-Party Service to you, such as
technology, development, or payment services. When you access or use a Third-Party Service, you interact
with the applicable third party, not with Apollo, and you do so at your own risk. Apollo is not responsible for
and makes no warranties, express or implied, regarding the Third-Party Services or their providers (including
the accuracy or completeness of the information provided by such Third-Party Service or the privacy practices
of any third party). The inclusion of any Third-Party Service or a link to it on the Site does not imply approval
or endorsement of such Third-Party Service. Apollo is not responsible or liable for the content or practices of
any Third-Party Service or third party, even if such Third-Party Service links to, or is linked by, the Site.
Submissions
At our sole discretion, you may be permitted to provide Submissions (as defined below) to the Site (e.g.,
through our forums or community). “Submissions” include any messages, emails, text, graphics, code,
questions, suggestions, comments, feedback, ideas, plans, notes, drawings, sample data, sound, images,
video, original or creative materials, and other items or materials that you may provide to discussion forums,
blogs, or other interactive features or areas of the Services where you or other users can create, post,
transmit or store Content. Unless otherwise specifically agreed to by you and Apollo, by uploading, e-mailing,
posting, publishing or otherwise transmitting any Submission, you acknowledge that such Submission is non-
confidential and you automatically grant (or warrant that the owner of such rights has expressly granted) to
Apollo a perpetual, irrevocable, worldwide, non-exclusive, sub-licensable, fully paid-up and royalty-free license
to use, make, have made, offer for sale, sell, copy, distribute, perform, display (whether publicly or
otherwise), modify, adapt, publish, transmit and otherwise exploit such Submission by any form, medium, or
technology now known or later developed, and to grant others the rights to do any of the foregoing.
Additionally, you warrant that all so-called moral rights in such Submission have been waived.
For each Submission, you represent and warrant that you have all rights necessary to grant the license
described above, and that such Submission, and your provision thereof to and through the Site, does not
violate any privacy, publicity, contractual, intellectual property, or other rights of any person or entity, or
otherwise violate any applicable laws, rules, or regulations. You acknowledge that Apollo may have ideas or
materials already under consideration or development that are similar to your Submissions and that you are
not entitled to any form of compensation or reimbursement from Apollo in connection with your Submissions.
You agree to be fully responsible for and pay any and all royalties, fees, damages, and any other monies owed
to any person or entity due to any Submission you provide to the Site. We reserve the right to terminate
access to all or any part of the Site for anyone we suspect to be an infringer of our or any third party’s
intellectual property rights of any kind whatsoever.
You agree that you will not, and will not allow or authorize any third party to, post Submissions containing:
• Anything that is or may be (a) threatening, harassing, degrading, abusive, or hateful; (b) an
incitement to violence, terrorism, or other wrongdoing; (c) defamatory or libelous; (d) invasive of
privacy rights; (e) fraudulent, deceptive, impersonating of any person or entity, or misrepresentative
of your affiliation with any person or entity; (f) obscene, pornographic, indecent, grotesque, or
otherwise objectionable; or (g) protected by copyright, trademark, confidentiality obligations, or other
proprietary or privacy right without the express prior written consent of the owner of such right.
• Any material, the posting or usage of which would give rise to criminal or civil liability, cause violation
of any rules or regulations, or encourage conduct that constitutes a criminal offense.
• Any virus, worm, Trojan horse, or other computer code, file, data, or program that is harmful,
disruptive, corrupted, or invasive, or is intended to damage or hijack the operation of any hardware or
software.
• Any information identifiable to a particular individual, including but not limited to addresses, phone
numbers, email addresses, birthdates, Social Security numbers, other government-issued
identification numbers, payment card, and other financial account numbers or login credentials, and
health information.
• Any unsolicited or unauthorized advertising, promotional materials, junk mail, spam, chain letters,
pyramid schemes, political campaign messages, offers of investment opportunities, or any other form
of solicitation.
• Any material with respect to which you do not have all rights, power, and authority necessary for its
collection, use, and processing, or where your use and provision to the Site would breach any
agreement between you and any third party.
Apollo generally does not pre-screen or monitor Submissions (but reserves the right to do so) and does not
control Submissions. Therefore, Apollo does not guarantee the accuracy, quality, or appropriateness of
Submissions and disclaims any responsibility for Submissions, including any liability for errors or omissions, or
for any loss or damage of any kind incurred as a result of their use. However, Apollo reserves the right at its
sole discretion to refuse, delete, screen, or edit Submissions, provided that even if we remove or alter any
Submission, we shall have no obligation to stop our other uses of such Submission, or any other Submission
as permitted above. We have no obligation to store any of your Submissions. We have no responsibility or
liability for the deletion or failure to store, transmit, or receive your Submissions, nor do we have any
responsibility for the security, privacy, storage, or transmission of other communications originating with or
involving your use of the Site, except as may be expressly stated in these Terms or in the Privacy Policy. You
are solely responsible for creating backup copies of and replacing any Submissions at your sole cost and
expense.
Apollo reserves the right to disclose any Submissions and the circumstances surrounding their transmission to
any third party to operate the Site, protect Apollo or its suppliers or representatives, protect users of the Site,
comply with legal or regulatory obligations, enforce these Terms, or for any other reason. Apollo is not
responsible or liable for the conduct of, or your interactions with, any other users of the Site (whether online
or offline), or for any associated loss, damage, injury, or harm. By using the Site, you may be exposed to
Submissions that are offensive, indecent, or objectionable, and you agree that Apollo bears no liability for
such exposure.

and will not allow or authorize any third party to:

Termination and Investigation
If you violate these Terms, Apollo may suspend or terminate your use of the Site. Apollo's right to suspend or
terminate your use of the Site applies even if a breach is committed unintentionally or without your
authorization if Apollo believes that suspension or termination is necessary to ensure compliance with
Applicable Laws or to protect the rights, safety, privacy, security, or property of Apollo, its customers, or third
parties. Apollo reserves the right, but does not assume the obligation, to investigate any violation of these
Terms or misuse of the Site. Apollo has the right in its sole discretion to edit, refuse to post, or remove any
Content posted, displayed, published, or made available for download or use on the Site that Apollo finds to be
in violation of these Terms. Apollo may report any activity that it suspects violates any law or regulation to
appropriate law enforcement officials, regulators, or other appropriate third parties. Such reporting may
include disclosing appropriate customer data. Apollo may also cooperate with appropriate law enforcement
agencies, regulators, or other appropriate third parties to help with the investigation and prosecution of illegal
conduct by providing network and systems information related to alleged violations.
Electronic Communications
When you visit the Site or send emails to Apollo, you are communicating with Apollo electronically, and you
consent to receive communications from Apollo electronically. Apollo will communicate with you by email or by
posting notices on the Site. You agree that all agreements, notices, disclosures, and other communications
that Apollo provides to you electronically satisfy any legal requirement that such communications be in
writing.
Modifications
Apollo may modify these Terms at any time by posting a revised version on the Site. By accessing the Site,
you agree to the latest version of these Terms.
Governing Law
These Terms will be interpreted, construed, and enforced in all respects according to the laws of the State of
California, without reference to its choice of law principles. Any legal action or proceeding arising under or
relating to these Terms shall be brought exclusively in the state or federal courts located in San Francisco
County, California, USA, and you expressly consent to personal jurisdiction and venue in those courts.
Miscellaneous
These Terms constitute the complete and exclusive statement of the agreement between you and Apollo and
supersede all proposals, oral or written, and all other communications between you and Apollo relating to the
subject matter of these Terms. If any information posted on the Site from time to time conflicts with any
provision of these Terms, the applicable provision of these Terms shall control. Any terms and conditions of
any other instrument issued by you in connection with these Terms which are in addition to, inconsistent with,
or different from these Terms shall be of no force or effect. These Terms do not, and shall not be construed to,
create any partnership, joint venture, employer-employee, agency, or franchisor-franchisee relationship
between you and Apollo. You may not assign, transfer, or sublicense any of your rights or obligations under
these Terms without Apollo's express prior written consent. Apollo may assign, transfer, or sublicense all or
any of its rights or obligations under these Terms without restriction. The failure of Apollo to exercise or
enforce any condition, term, or provision of these Terms will not operate as a waiver of such condition, term,
or provision. Any waiver by Apollo of any condition, term, or provision of these Terms shall not be construed
as a waiver of any other condition, term, or provision. If any provision of these Terms is held invalid or
unenforceable, the remainder of these Terms shall continue in full force and effect. You agree that a printed
version of these Terms and any notice given in electronic form shall be admissible in judicial or administrative
proceedings based upon or relating to these Terms to the same extent and subject to the same conditions as
other business documents and records originally generated and maintained in printed form. Apollo will not be
responsible for failures to fulfill any obligations due to causes beyond its control. If non-English translations of
these Terms are provided, such translations are provided for convenience only. In the event of any ambiguity
or conflict between translations, the English version is authoritative and controls.
