Companies change their terms quietly. We read every version and catch what actually changed. One email a week on the changes that matter and what they mean.
This page describes what the document states, permits, or reserves. It does not constitute a legal determination about enforceability. Regulatory applicability may vary by jurisdiction. Methodology
By visiting or using Datadog's website, you automatically agree to these Terms—no sign-up required. Datadog's maximum financial responsibility to you for anything that goes wrong is capped at $200, while you are responsible for defending and compensating Datadog against any claims arising from your use. If you actually use Datadog's monitoring service (including a free trial), a separate, different agreement—the Master Subscription Agreement—applies instead.
These Terms of Use establish the conditions under which users may access Datadog's Site and its content, distinct from the Master Subscription Agreement that governs actual Service use. Datadog grants users a limited, revocable, non-sublicensable license for personal, non-commercial access to Datadog Content, while retaining all ownership rights in the Site and Datadog Content and receiving a perpetual, irrevocable, royalty-free, sublicensable license over any content users post. Datadog disclaims all warranties and caps its aggregate liability at two hundred U.S. dollars, while users bear a broad indemnification obligation covering Datadog, its affiliates, and their personnel. Datadog may modify the Terms at any time by posting a revised version on the Site and may suspend or terminate user access upon a Terms violation.
Using or even browsing the Datadog Site binds you to these Terms without any further action. Any content you post grants Datadog a permanent, irrevocable, royalty-free license it can sublicense to others, and you cannot take that license back. Datadog's total financial liability to you is capped at $200 regardless of the harm suffered, while you must indemnify Datadog and a broad set of affiliated parties against any claims and losses arising from your use. Datadog may change these Terms at any time by posting an update to the Site, so checking the posted Terms for changes is the only available way to stay informed.
