Terms of Service
Last updated:
These terms are an agreement between you and [Company legal name] ("Storm Robotics", "we", "us"). They cover the web app at app.storm-robotics.com and the program you install on your computer (together, "the service"). By using the service, you agree to them. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle your data.
What the service does
You teach a robot arm a task by showing it. You move a "leader" arm, a "follower" arm copies it, and cameras film. We label your demonstrations with a vision model, train a robot model on them, and run that model so the arm does the task by itself. You can correct it, and it keeps learning.
Your account
- You can sign in with an email sign-in link or with Hugging Face.
- An account is for one person. Don't share it. You are responsible for what happens under it.
- You must be at least 16 years old. [to confirm]
- Keep the connect command we give you private. It contains a key, and anyone who has it can act as you.
Your data stays yours
- You must connect your own Hugging Face account. Your recordings, labels, datasets and trained-model records are stored in a private repository in that account.
- You own your data. You let us copy and process it only to run the service for you: to label it, train your models and run them.
Sharing your data with us (optional)
Sharing is off unless you turn it on. If you turn it on:
- We may use the data you share to train shared base models offered to all users, and for our own research and products.
- You give us a permanent, worldwide, royalty-free right to use what you shared for these purposes. [to confirm]
- You can turn sharing off at any time. That stops sharing from then on. Data already used to train a model cannot be removed from that model.
People and places on camera
Your cameras may film people and places. You must have the right to record everything in view. Don't record anyone who has not agreed to it.
Safety
Robots move, sometimes in ways you don't expect. You are responsible for operating your arm safely:
- Keep people out of its reach while it can move.
- Supervise it whenever a model drives it, and be ready to stop it.
- Use hardware that is in good condition and set up as its maker intends.
Models make mistakes. A model that worked before can fail on the next try.
Your API keys and other providers
You bring your own API keys, for example for Dream Labs. We store them encrypted and use them only to run your jobs. You are responsible for any charges your providers bill you. Camera frames and recordings are sent to the model providers your keys point at, under those providers' terms.
Acceptable use
Don't use the service:
- for anything illegal or harmful;
- for weapons, or to build anything meant to injure people;
- to break, overload or abuse the service, or get around its limits;
- to get into other people's accounts or data.
We may suspend or close accounts that break these rules.
Our software
We own the service. We let you use it, and the program for your computer, to teach and run your robots. If we give you the program's code under an open-source license, that license governs the code. [to confirm]
No warranty
To the extent the law allows, the service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind. We don't promise it will be error-free or always available, or that a model will do a task correctly.
Limits on our liability
To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, or for harm caused by how your robot is set up or operated. Our total liability is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim. [to confirm]
Ending your account
You can stop using the service at any time and ask us to delete your account. We then delete what we hold about you. The data in your own Hugging Face account stays yours, and yours to delete. Shared data already used to train a model stays in that model.
Changes
We may change the service or these terms. If a change matters, we will tell you before it takes effect. Using the service after that means you accept the new terms.
Law and contact
These terms are governed by the laws of [Jurisdiction].
