Effective date: January 1, 2026 | Last updated: January 1, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the KernelRun platform and website operated by KernelRun, Inc. ("KernelRun," "we," or "us"). By accessing or using our services, you agree to these Terms. If you are using KernelRun on behalf of an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization to these Terms.
KernelRun provides cloud cost visibility, resource scheduling, and spend attribution tools for engineering teams. We connect to your cloud provider accounts using credentials you supply and read billing and resource data to provide our service. Scheduled actions (starting and stopping resources) require write permissions on specific resource types and are executed only according to schedules you configure.
You must create an account to use KernelRun. You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account credentials and for all activity that occurs under your account. Notify us immediately at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized access.
You agree not to:
KernelRun is available on paid subscription plans as described on our pricing page. Subscriptions renew automatically unless cancelled before the renewal date. We will notify you before any price changes take effect. All fees are non-refundable except as required by applicable law or as stated in a separate agreement.
You retain ownership of all data you bring to KernelRun, including cloud billing data and resource metadata. You grant KernelRun a limited license to process this data for the sole purpose of providing the service. We do not sell your data. See our Privacy Policy for details on how we handle personal information.
KernelRun owns all intellectual property rights in the platform, software, documentation, and marketing materials. Nothing in these Terms transfers ownership of any KernelRun intellectual property to you.
KernelRun is provided "as is" and "as available." We do not warrant that the service will be error-free, uninterrupted, or that any scheduling actions will execute without failure. Scheduled resource actions depend on the availability and behavior of third-party cloud provider APIs, which are outside our control.
To the maximum extent permitted by applicable law, KernelRun's total liability for any claims arising from these Terms or use of the service will not exceed the amount you paid us in the 12 months preceding the claim. KernelRun is not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages.
You agree to indemnify and hold harmless KernelRun from claims arising from your use of the service, your violation of these Terms, or your violation of any third-party rights.
Either party may terminate service with 30 days written notice. KernelRun may terminate or suspend access immediately for material violations of these Terms. Upon termination, your right to access the platform ceases and we will delete your data in accordance with our data retention policy.
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of California, without regard to conflict of law principles. Any dispute will be resolved in the courts of Santa Clara County, California.
We may update these Terms from time to time. We will notify you by email or in-app notice for material changes. Continued use after the effective date constitutes acceptance of the revised Terms.
