Terms of Service

Last updated: January 2025

Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using DevStats, you accept and agree to be bound by these Terms of Service. If you do not agree to these terms, please do not use our service.

Service Description

DevStats is a free service that fetches and displays GitHub contribution statistics. We provide visualizations, comparisons, and leaderboard features to help developers track and share their coding activity.

GitHub API Dependency

DevStats relies on the GitHub API to fetch user statistics. We are not affiliated with GitHub. Service availability depends on GitHub API availability and rate limits. We cannot guarantee uninterrupted access to statistics if GitHub's API is unavailable or rate-limited.

Data Accuracy

Statistics displayed on DevStats are fetched from GitHub and may not reflect real-time data. We cache statistics to improve performance, which means there may be a delay between your GitHub activity and its reflection on DevStats. We do not guarantee the accuracy, completeness, or timeliness of any statistics displayed.

User Responsibilities

When using DevStats, you agree to:

  • Use the service only for lawful purposes
  • Not attempt to abuse, overload, or disrupt our systems
  • Not scrape or harvest data from our service without permission
  • Respect rate limits and not circumvent any security measures
  • Not impersonate other users or misrepresent your identity

Leaderboard Participation

Participation in public leaderboards is entirely optional. By opting in to the leaderboard, you consent to having your GitHub username, avatar, and statistics displayed publicly. You may opt out at any time through your account settings.

Limitation of Liability

DevStats is provided "as is" without warranties of any kind. We shall not be liable for any direct, indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages resulting from your use of or inability to use the service. This includes but is not limited to damages for loss of data, goodwill, or other intangible losses.

Service Modifications

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue DevStats at any time without prior notice. We may also update these Terms of Service from time to time. Continued use of the service after changes constitutes acceptance of the new terms.
