Terms of
Service.

Last updated: April 1, 2026

Acceptance of terms

By accessing or using CodeSpell, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service and our Privacy Policy. If you are accepting on behalf of an institution, you represent that you have authority to bind that institution.

If you do not agree to these terms, do not use the platform.

Description of service

CodeSpell provides automated code grading, feedback generation, and LMS integration tools for educational institutions. The platform is currently provided free of charge during an early access phase.

We reserve the right to modify, suspend, or discontinue any part of the service at any time with reasonable notice.

Account responsibilities

You are responsible for maintaining the confidentiality of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account.

You must notify us immediately at support@codespell.net if you suspect unauthorised access to your account.

Accounts may not be shared between individuals. Each user must have their own account.

Acceptable use

You may not use CodeSpell to process content that is unlawful, harmful, or violates the rights of others.

You may not attempt to reverse-engineer, decompile, or extract the source code of any part of the platform.

You may not use the platform to train, fine-tune, or evaluate machine learning models without our written consent.

You may not use automated scripts to access the platform in a way that places unreasonable load on our infrastructure.

Intellectual property

CodeSpell and all related technology, trademarks, and content are owned by CodeSpell. Nothing in these terms grants you ownership of any CodeSpell IP.

You retain ownership of all submission content and rubrics you create on the platform. You grant us a limited licence to process that content solely to provide the service.

Pricing and billing

CodeSpell is currently free during our early access pilot. No payment information is required.

We will introduce paid plans in the future. Existing users will receive at least 30 days' notice before any pricing changes take effect, and will be offered preferential rates.

Any future billing terms will be communicated clearly before they apply.

Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, CodeSpell shall not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, or consequential damages arising from your use of the platform.

Our total liability to you for any claims arising under these terms shall not exceed the fees you paid in the 12 months preceding the claim.

Termination

Either party may terminate the agreement at any time. Termination does not relieve you of any payment obligations for the current billing period.

Upon termination, you may request an export of your data within 30 days. After that period, data may be deleted in accordance with our retention policy.
