Terms of Service

Last updated: April 2026

1. Acceptance and Binding Agreement

By accessing or using Play Python (the "Service"), you acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be legally bound by these Terms of Service and all applicable laws. If you do not agree, you must discontinue use immediately.

2A. Critical Security and Liability Warning

BY USING THE SERVICE, YOU ACKNOWLEDGE AND AGREE THAT:

  • Collaborative editor functionality is provided on an "as available," best-effort basis and is not guaranteed to be uninterrupted, accurate, timely, synchronized, or fit for any specific purpose.
  • You are solely responsible for maintaining independent contingency plans, backups, and alternate coordination workflows in the event collaborative editing is unavailable or fails.
  • Any secret entered into the Environment Variables panel may be exposed, logged, copied, or otherwise compromised despite best-effort safeguards.
  • If you hardcode secrets into files and share any direct or shortened URL, such secrets may be disclosed because shared state URLs may encode project content.
  • `.gitignore`-based filtering is provided on a best-effort, non-guaranteed basis and may not prevent all disclosures in all scenarios.
  • YOU ASSUME FULL RESPONSIBILITY FOR PROTECTING CREDENTIALS, ROTATING LEAKED SECRETS, AND ALL RESULTING LOSS, DAMAGE, CLAIMS, OR LIABILITY.
  • PLAY PYTHON, ITS MAINTAINERS, CONTRIBUTORS, AND PROVIDERS SHALL HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR SECRET EXPOSURE OR RESULTING HARM.
  • PLAY PYTHON, ITS MAINTAINERS, CONTRIBUTORS, AND PROVIDERS SHALL HAVE NO RESPONSIBILITY OR LIABILITY FOR ANY HARM, DAMAGE, LOSS, OR CLAIM ARISING FROM COLLABORATIVE EDITOR INTERRUPTION, FAILURE, DELAY, DESYNCHRONIZATION, OR UNAVAILABILITY.
