使用許諾ポリシー

Last Updated: March 27, 2023

This Acceptable Use Policy (this “Policy”) describes prohibited uses of the Services offered by Circle Internet Services, Inc., dba CircleCI (“CircleCI” or “our”). This Policy supplements, and is incorporated into, CircleCI’s Software as a Service Agreement (currently published at https://circleci.com/terms-of-service/) (the “SaaS Agreement”) and CircleCI’s Software License Agreement (currently published at https://circleci.com/legal/enterprise-license-agreement/) (the “Software License Agreement”). In the event of any conflict or inconsistency among the following documents, and, except as otherwise expressly set forth in an Order and/or signed agreement between the parties, the order of precedence shall be (1) this Policy, (2) the Saas Agreement or Software License Agreement (as applicable), and (3) the Documentation. Capitalized terms in this Policy that are not otherwise defined in this Policy have the meanings given in the SaaS Agreement.

If you violate this Policy, CircleCI may deny access, suspend, or terminate your use of the Services (or any part thereof). CircleCI’s right to suspend or terminate your use of the Services applies even if a breach is committed unintentionally or without your authorization if CircleCI believes that suspension or termination is necessary to ensure compliance with laws or to protect the rights, safety, privacy, security or property of CircleCI, its customers or third parties.

CircleCI may modify this Policy at any time by posting a revised version on the Site. By using the Services, you agree to the latest version of this Policy.

Responsibility for Users

Users are responsible for violations of this Policy, whether by (i) yourself, (ii) anyone using the Services with your permission, or (iii) using your account on an unauthorized basis. Your use of the Services to assist another person in an activity that would violate this Policy if that activity, when performed by you, is a violation of this Policy. This Policy applies to anyone accessing or using the Services; however, each prohibition included in this Policy shall be interpreted to include, and apply to, any action directly or indirectly taken, authorized, facilitated, promoted, encouraged or permitted by a User of the Services, even if such person did not themselves violate the prohibition.

Monitoring and Enforcement

CircleCI 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 applicable customer data. CircleCI also may 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 of this Policy.

Reporting Violations

If you become aware of any violation of this Policy, you must immediately notify CircleCI by contacting us and providing assistance as reasonably requested to stop or remedy the violation.
