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
This document establishes the terms of service governing user access to and use of Postman's API development and testing platform. The agreement limits Postman's liability to users to the lesser of amounts paid in the preceding 12 months or $100. The agreement authorizes Postman to use content uploaded to its platform pursuant to a broad content license, with removal and retention governed by the Acceptable Use Policy.
This document governs use of Postman's API platform services, including its desktop application, web interface, and cloud features, on the basis of a click-wrap agreement between users and Postman, Inc. The agreement states that users grant Postman a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to use content submitted to the platform, the terms authorize Postman to suspend or terminate accounts for violations of its Acceptable Use Policy without prior notice, and the agreement limits Postman's liability to fees paid in the preceding twelve months or one hundred dollars, whichever is greater. The liability cap combined with a mutual indemnification obligation placed on users is operationally notable for enterprise customers, as the terms authorize Postman to modify the service and pricing with notice periods that may be shorter than enterprise procurement cycles require; the agreement asserts California law as governing and the courts of San Francisco County as exclusive venue, which may engage conflict-of-law analysis for non-US users, though applicable law in certain jurisdictions may limit the enforceability of these forum selection and choice-of-law clauses. The terms engage GDPR and CCPA frameworks through reference to a separate Privacy Policy, with the DPA (Data Processing Addendum) incorporated by reference for enterprise customers processing personal data of EU/EEA individuals; California residents are afforded specific rights under CCPA, and the agreement's data license provisions warrant review under both frameworks for enterprise compliance teams assessing whether user-submitted API data may constitute personal data subject to those regulations.
Users accepting these terms operate under a liability cap that ranges from $100 to the amount paid in the prior 12 months depending on account status. Users grant Postman a broad license to use uploaded content, including API collections, environment variables, and test data. Users retain the ability to delete workspaces and stored data through account settings.
