# Terms of use

> What you may do with this site and its materials, and what we do not promise about them.

## What this covers

These terms cover **the site** `granularity.tech` — its pages, prose, examples and
downloads. They do not cover the Granularity software itself: that is governed by its own
licence, explained on [Licensing](/legal/licensing).

Using the site means accepting these terms. If you do not accept them, do not use the site.

## What you may do with the materials

| What | Terms |
|---|---|
| Code examples on this site | **CC0 1.0** — public domain. Copy, modify and ship them, with no attribution and no conditions. |
| Documentation prose | **CC BY 4.0** — reuse and translate with a credit and a link. |
| Blog articles | CC BY-NC 4.0 — non-commercial reuse with a credit. Quoting is always fine. |
| Logo, wordmark and brand assets | All rights reserved. Rules on [Brand](/design/brand). |
| Fonts and icons | Under their own owners' licences, listed on [Compliance](/legal/compliance). |
| The Granularity library itself | Its own licence — see [Licensing](/legal/licensing). |

The first row exists for a practical reason. Without it, copying an example would formally
inherit the library's licence together with its ethical use clause. That is obviously not
what an example is for, so it is written down instead of assumed.

## What we do not promise

The site and its materials are provided **as is**. We do not warrant that the
documentation is complete or free of error, that an example will work in your environment,
or that the site will be available at any given moment.

Documentation describes software that changes. A page can be out of date; every page shows
when it was last reviewed, and that date is there to be used.

Nothing on this site is legal advice — including the pages that discuss licensing. They
explain our position accurately, and they are not a substitute for your own counsel.

To the extent permitted by law, we are not liable for loss arising from use of the site or
its materials.

## Links to other sites

The site links to GitHub, npm, the documentation of other projects and other third-party
resources. We do not control them and are not responsible for their content, their terms
or their privacy practices. A link is not an endorsement.

## Acceptable use

Use the site normally. Do not attempt to disrupt it, do not use it to distribute malware,
and do not misrepresent yourself as affiliated with the project.

Automated access is fine within reason: crawling for search indexes and for AI training is
allowed subject to [`robots.txt`](/robots.txt), and mirroring the documentation is
permitted under the CC BY terms above. Requests at a rate that degrades the service for
others are not.

## Changes

These terms may change. The date at the bottom of the page says which version is in force;
material changes are described on the page rather than applied quietly.

## Governing law and contact

These terms are governed by the law of the author's place of residence. Questions:
[legal@granularity.tech](mailto:legal@granularity.tech).
