Noscrape is a technical online service for obfuscating and providing digital content via API, web and integration interfaces.

These Terms and Conditions govern the use of the Noscrape website, Noscrape API, user accounts, integrations, open-source components and all related services and features.

The services are intended exclusively for businesses, self-employed professionals, legal entities under public law and special funds under public law. Use by consumers is not intended.

By registering, using the services or subscribing to a paid plan, the user confirms that they are acting in the course of their commercial or independent professional activity.

Noscrape services may be used worldwide provided that such use does not violate applicable laws, regulations or sanctions.

Separate agreements, including enterprise, on-premise or individual agreements, shall prevail over these Terms and Conditions in the event of conflicts.

Additional license terms or open-source licenses may apply to open-source components, SDKs, plugins or integrations.

Noscrape is a technical online service for obfuscating digital content through dynamically generated fonts and character substitution.

The services enable the processing of JSON data, individual text values and the provision of obfuscated content for websites, applications and integrations.

Depending on the selected plan, generated font files are either delivered directly as Base64-encoded responses or provided through temporary hosting and CDN services.

Generated font files, temporary assets or CDN resources may be automatically deleted or disabled depending on the respective subscription plan.

Noscrape generally does not permanently store content data transmitted by users. Technical logs may be processed solely for error analysis, stability and platform security purposes. No content analysis of user data is performed.

The integration of obfuscated content into websites, applications or third-party software is the sole responsibility of the user or the respective integrations, SDKs or plugins used.

Noscrape is intended to increase the difficulty of automated data extraction and scraping processes. Complete protection against all extraction, analysis, OCR, AI-based or reverse-engineering techniques cannot be guaranteed.

Effective protection may require regular rotation or regeneration of the generated font files.

Certain features or services may be provided as self-hosted, on-premise, beta, testing or enterprise versions.

Infrastructure and third-party services may be used to provide the services, including hosting, CDN, payment and network providers.

Certain features of the services may require the creation of a user account.

Authentication may be performed using one-time email login codes or similar authentication methods.

Users are required to provide accurate and complete information during registration and use of the services.

The user is responsible for all activities performed through their account or API keys.

API keys, access credentials and authentication information must be kept confidential and protected against unauthorized access by third parties.

In the event of suspected unauthorized access, misuse or compromised credentials, the user must take appropriate measures, including revoking, deleting or rotating affected API keys.

Noscrape may apply technical protection measures, rate limits, access restrictions or security mechanisms depending on the subscription plan or usage behavior.

Free or trial access may be limited, disabled or removed at any time, particularly in cases of abuse, unusual usage patterns or technical requirements.

There is no entitlement to registration, permanent availability of free features or continued access to specific services.

Noscrape may temporarily or permanently restrict or suspend user accounts or API access if there are concrete indications of abusive, unlawful, security-relevant or contract-violating use.

After expiration or cancellation of paid subscriptions, access to certain features may be restricted. Free features may remain available.

The Noscrape API may only be used within the scope of the provided technical and contractual limitations.

Users may not circumvent, disable or interfere with technical protection measures, access restrictions, rate limits or security mechanisms.

Abusive, excessive or stability-threatening automated usage is prohibited.

In particular, load testing, security analysis, benchmarking, reverse engineering or comparable investigations of the platform are prohibited unless expressly authorized in writing by Noscrape.

The API may not be used for distributing, processing or supporting unlawful content, malware, phishing, spam or attack infrastructures.

Reselling, sublicensing, providing reseller services or integrating the Noscrape API into commercial third-party offerings requires a separate written agreement.

Noscrape may modify technical limits, usage restrictions, access rules or subscription features at any time if required for technical, operational or security-related reasons.

Noscrape may reject requests, restrict access, block IP addresses or suspend API keys if there are concrete indications of abusive or contract-violating use.

API documentation, examples, technical descriptions and integration guides are provided solely for general technical information purposes and do not constitute guaranteed characteristics or warranties.

Noscrape may further develop, modify or discontinue API versions, endpoints, parameters or technical interfaces at any time while reasonably considering legitimate user interests.

Noscrape strives to provide high service availability but does not guarantee any specific minimum availability unless otherwise agreed in writing.

Separate service-level agreements (SLAs), response times or support commitments may only be agreed upon within individual enterprise or on-premise agreements.

Noscrape may perform maintenance, technical modifications, security measures or infrastructure adjustments at any time.

Services, features, API endpoints, CDN resources, beta features or integrations may be temporarily restricted, disabled or removed where technically, organizationally or security-wise necessary.

Technical limitations, security mechanisms, access restrictions or temporary suspensions may in particular be applied to mitigate abuse, attacks, overload situations or security-related incidents.

The availability and functionality of obfuscated content may be affected by external factors including browser settings, caching, content filters, network issues, CDN failures, font blocking or client-side security mechanisms.

Noscrape does not guarantee that generated font files or delivered content will function flawlessly at all times across all devices, browsers or network configurations.

Self-hosted or on-premise versions are generally operated under the customer’s responsibility. In particular, the customer is responsible for infrastructure, hosting, updates, backups, networking, security measures and overall system operations.

Beta, preview, testing or experimental features may be incomplete, contain errors or be modified, restricted or removed at any time.

Unless explicitly agreed otherwise, support is provided on a best-effort basis and without guaranteed response times.

Noscrape shall not be liable for outages, limitations or delays caused by force majeure, third-party providers, infrastructure failures, network disruptions, DNS issues, CDN failures, hosting outages, cyberattacks or comparable external events.

Unless stated otherwise, all prices are stated in Euro. In accordance with Section 19 of the German VAT Act (UStG), no VAT is charged.

Users may request complete deletion of their user account and related data unless statutory retention obligations require continued storage.

Noscrape may immediately restrict or terminate accounts or access for good cause, particularly in cases of abusive, unlawful, security-relevant or contract-violating use.

Noscrape may delete or deactivate user accounts after extended inactivity, technical necessity or permanent discontinuation of individual services following reasonable prior notice where possible.

Enterprise, on-premise or individual agreements may contain different contract terms, notice periods or termination provisions.
