Finsweet Legal Agreements and Policies for Products and Services
1. Welcome
1.1 Introduction
We're thrilled to have you use Finsweet's Products and Services. This document outlines the Acceptable Use Policy ("Policy") that govern your use of our offerings.
Finsweet Inc. is the company behind all the awesome Products and Services you're using. When we say "Finsweet," "we," "us," or "our" in this Policy, we’re talking about Finsweet Inc. When we say "you" or "Customer," we mean you - the individual or company using our Products and Services.
By using Finsweet's Products and Services, or accessing our content on any platform, you're agreeing to this Policy, so give them a thorough read. If you're accepting for a company or other legal entity, you're confirming you've got the authority to do so. In that case, "you" means that entity. By accepting this Policy, you're confirming that you have the right to enter into this agreement, either for yourself or on behalf of your company. If you're acting on behalf of a company, you're promising us that you have the authority to bind that company to this Policy.
Capitalized terms not defined in this Policy have the meaning given to them in our other applicable agreements referenced herein.
1.2 Products and Services
Finsweet’s “Products and Services” include:

We love that you're using our tools, but to keep things running smoothly for everyone, please follow these important guidelines:
