API Terms
#API Terms
Using this API — as a club or as an integrator a club has given credentials to — is governed by the Sail Club API Terms, a legal document (not part of this technical reference):
Highlights (the linked document is authoritative):
- Use the data only for the club that issued your credentials, for that club's own events.
- No resale or bulk harvesting of the data.
- Attribute results you display ("Results by Sail Club", linked) where practical.
- Keep credentials secret and report a suspected leak so the club admin can rotate them.
- Honour the same personal-data duties as the club itself — display only, no profiling or marketing use.
- We may rate-limit, suspend or revoke access for misuse — see Rate limits for the automatic limits, independent of this.
A club admin accepts these terms once, in the panel, the first time they create an API client — see Quickstart.
