LLM API Marketplace Terms
Operating model:
LLM API Marketplace operates as an intermediary exchange connecting API providers and API consumers. The platform routes requests from Consumer to Provider through API keys contributed by Providers.
Provider Responsibilities:
- API key ownership: Provider confirms that API keys contributed to the platform are legitimately owned or authorized for use
- Upstream compliance: Provider is responsible for ensuring API key sharing complies with the terms of service of the original provider (OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, etc.)
- Risk acceptance: Provider understands and accepts that many Consumers will use their API key. The platform attempts fair distribution but does not guarantee specific usage patterns
- Key management: Provider may revoke, pause (maintenance mode), or change API keys at any time. The platform supports AES-256-GCM encryption for API keys
Consumer Responsibilities:
- AUP compliance: Consumer MUST comply with the Acceptable Use Policy of the original model provider (OpenAI ToS, Anthropic AUP, Google ToS, etc.)
- Lawful content: Consumer bears full responsibility for content sent through the API and results received from the model
- Consumer Key security: Do not share Consumer API key (sk-xxx) with third parties. The platform is not responsible if the key is exposed
- Fair use: Do not abuse the API (spam, DDoS, or attacking the original provider through the platform)
Important Disclaimer:
The platform does NOT moderate, filter, or take responsibility for content generated by AI models. The platform only routes requests between Consumer and Provider. All content violations are the responsibility of the Consumer using the API.
LLM API Data Handling
Data collected:
- Billing metadata: Input/output token count, latency, model ID, request time — used for billing and statistics
- Usage records: Stored for up to 90 days (TTL), then automatically deleted
- Hourly stats: Hourly aggregated statistics, stored for up to 365 days
Data NOT stored:
- Request/response content: The platform does NOT store prompt content, messages, or results from AI models
- Original API key: Keys are encrypted with AES-256-GCM, only decrypted in memory when routing requests, decrypted keys are not logged
Security Commitment:
The platform commits to not reading, storing, or analyzing content transmitted through the API. Data is forwarded directly from Consumer to Provider without any content processing steps.
LLM API Refund Policy
Refund principles:
- Unused balance: Full refund of unused balance can be requested at any time. Contact support to process
- Consumed tokens: Successfully used tokens/requests are NOT refundable (costs have been paid to Provider)
- Failed requests: Failed requests (5xx, timeout, provider not responding) are NOT charged — the platform only charges for successful requests
- Provider maintenance: When Provider enables maintenance mode, requests are blocked before being sent — no costs incurred
Special cases:
- Platform technical error: If the platform causes incorrect billing, we will refund 100% of the incorrectly charged amount
- Provider API key invalidated: If Provider's API key expires or is revoked by the original provider, requests will automatically fail and not be charged
- Disputes: All billing disputes must be submitted within 7 days from the date of occurrence. After 7 days, charges are considered accepted
Refund process:
- Contact support via email or the support system
- Provide account information and reason for refund
- Team verifies and processes within 3-5 business days
- Refund to original payment method or account balance
Note on Provider revenue:
Providers may request withdrawal of accumulated revenue at any time (excluding platform fees). Revenue is calculated based on actual tokens/requests used through the Provider's API key.
