Terms of use, privacy practices, and the status of Golem Cloud's services. Read this carefully — especially the Developer Preview Notice.

Effective date: 21 May 2026.

Developer Preview Notice. Golem Cloud (the managed service at console.golem.cloud) is in Developer Preview. It is provided AS-IS, with no warranties, no SLAs, and no data-retention guarantees. We may modify, suspend, or delete Preview data at any time without notice. Do not store anything you cannot afford to lose. A paid version with guarantees is planned for general availability in Q3 2026. The Golem runtime itself (open-source, BUSL-1.1) is not affected by this notice — only the managed Cloud service.

Developer Preview Notice

Golem Cloud — the managed service operated by Golem Cloud, Inc. and reached via console.golem.cloud — is currently offered as a Developer Preview. By accessing or using the Preview, you acknowledge and accept that:

  • The Preview is provided AS-IS and AS-AVAILABLE, without warranties of any kind, express or implied.
  • There is no Service Level Agreement. We make no uptime, performance, or reliability commitments.
  • We may modify, suspend, or discontinue any feature or the entire Preview at any time, with or without notice.
  • We routinely delete data stored in the Preview environment. Data may be wiped at any time, including without prior notice. Do not store anything you cannot afford to lose.
  • The Preview is intended for evaluation, experimentation, and prototyping — not production workloads.

A paid, generally-available version of Golem Cloud — with formal SLAs, data-retention guarantees, and support — is planned for Q3 2026. Until then, the terms above apply.

The open-source Golem runtime (see Software License below) is distinct from the managed Cloud service and is not affected by this Notice. You may self-host the runtime under the terms of its license.

Disclaimer

The information on golem.cloud is provided for general informational purposes only. We make no representations or warranties of any kind, express or implied, about the completeness, accuracy, reliability, suitability, or availability of the website or the information, products, services, or related graphics contained on the website. Any reliance you place on such information is strictly at your own risk.

Privacy Policy

Golem Cloud, Inc. respects your privacy. This policy explains what personal information we collect and how we use it.

What we collect

The only personal information we collect is your email address, which you voluntarily provide when you sign up for a Developer Preview account, subscribe to release updates, or contact us.

We do not use third-party analytics that profile individual users. We do not sell or rent your information.

How we use your information

  • To provide and operate the Developer Preview service.
  • To send service-related communications (e.g., security notices, planned downtime, account changes).
  • To send release updates and announcements — only if you have explicitly opted in.
  • To comply with legal obligations.

Cookies and tracking

We use only essential first-party cookies required for authentication and session management. We do not use advertising cookies or third-party tracking pixels. If we add analytics in the future, this section will be updated and consent obtained where required.

Data retention & deletion

Your email is retained while your account is active. You may request deletion of your account and associated data at any time by emailing privacy@golem.cloud. Preview workload data is routinely wiped — see the Developer Preview Notice.

Data Processing Addendum

If you require a Data Processing Addendum (DPA) for GDPR compliance, contact legal@golem.cloud.

GDPR and CCPA rights

If you are in the EEA, UK, or California, you have the right to access, correct, delete, or port your personal information; to object to processing; and to withdraw consent at any time. To exercise these rights, contact privacy@golem.cloud. Our legal basis for processing is your consent and our legitimate interest in operating the Preview service.

Children

The service is not directed at children under 13 (or under 16 in the EEA). We do not knowingly collect data from children. If you believe a child has provided us information, contact us and we will delete it.

International transfers

We are based in the United States. If you access the service from outside the US, your information may be transferred to and processed in the US. We rely on appropriate safeguards (such as Standard Contractual Clauses) for cross-border transfers from the EEA and UK.

Terms of Service

By accessing golem.cloud, console.golem.cloud, or any related Golem Cloud service, you agree to these Terms of Service.

Eligibility & accounts

You must be at least 13 years old to use the service (or older if required by your jurisdiction). You are responsible for safeguarding your account credentials and for any activity under your account.

Service modifications & preview status

As stated in the Developer Preview Notice, we may add, change, or remove features at any time. We may also modify or terminate the Preview itself with or without notice. Beta and preview features carry no warranties, indemnities, support obligations, performance commitments, or data-retention rights.

Intellectual property

Content you create using the Preview belongs to you. By using the service, you grant Golem Cloud a limited license to host, process, and display your content solely for operating the service. We will not use your code, data, or prompts to train machine learning models, absent your express written consent.

Feedback

If you submit feedback, suggestions, or bug reports, you grant us a non-exclusive, royalty-free, perpetual right to use them without obligation.

Term & termination

You may stop using the service at any time. We may suspend or terminate your access if you violate these terms, the Acceptable Use Policy, or applicable law, or if we discontinue the Preview. On termination, your account and Preview data may be deleted.

Disclaimer of warranties

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED "AS IS" AND "AS AVAILABLE" WITHOUT WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT.

Limitation of liability

TO THE MAXIMUM EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, GOLEM CLOUD, INC. SHALL NOT BE LIABLE FOR ANY INDIRECT, INCIDENTAL, SPECIAL, CONSEQUENTIAL, OR PUNITIVE DAMAGES, OR FOR ANY LOSS OF DATA, PROFITS, OR REVENUE, ARISING OUT OF OR IN CONNECTION WITH YOUR USE OF THE SERVICE. OUR TOTAL LIABILITY FOR ANY CLAIM SHALL NOT EXCEED ONE HUNDRED U.S. DOLLARS ($100) OR THE AMOUNT YOU PAID US IN THE TWELVE MONTHS PRECEDING THE CLAIM, WHICHEVER IS GREATER. THE DEVELOPER PREVIEW IS PROVIDED FREE OF CHARGE; NO PAYMENT GIVES RISE TO A HIGHER CAP.

Governing law

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, United States, without regard to conflicts-of-law principles. Any disputes shall be resolved in the state or federal courts located in Delaware.

Acceptable Use Policy

You agree not to use Golem Cloud (the service or the Preview) to:

  • Violate any law, regulation, or third-party right.
  • Send spam, phishing, fraudulent communications, or other unsolicited bulk content.
  • Host, transmit, or distribute malware, viruses, or other harmful code.
  • Engage in cryptocurrency mining or comparable resource-abuse workloads.
  • Attempt to gain unauthorized access to the service, other accounts, or any underlying infrastructure.
  • Interfere with or disrupt the integrity or performance of the service.
  • Reverse-engineer, decompile, or attempt to extract source code or trade secrets from the managed service, except as expressly permitted by law.
  • Build a competing service using the Preview.
  • Process Sensitive Personal Information that would require regulatory compliance we do not offer (e.g., HIPAA-regulated PHI, payment-card data subject to PCI-DSS, ITAR-controlled content).
  • Use the service for content that exploits or endangers minors.

Violations may result in immediate suspension or termination of your account and, where applicable, referral to law enforcement.

Security

We take security seriously, but you should also understand the limits of a Developer Preview.

  • Hosting: managed Cloud infrastructure operated by Golem Cloud, Inc.
  • Encryption: traffic between your client and the service is encrypted in transit (TLS). Stored Preview data is encrypted at rest where practicable.
  • Access control: only authorized Golem Cloud personnel may access production systems; access is logged.
  • Training data: we do not use your code, prompts, agent state, or other inputs to train machine learning models.
  • No formal certifications: the Preview does not carry SOC 2, ISO 27001, HIPAA, or comparable certifications. Formal compliance and a trust center will accompany general availability in Q3 2026.
  • Reporting vulnerabilities: please disclose security issues responsibly to security@golem.cloud. Do not publicly disclose before we have had a reasonable chance to remediate.
