Because this prohibition covers both technical circumvention and downstream marketing, it restricts API Providers from leveraging RapidAPI's user relationships outside the platform.
Interpretive note: The excerpt uses 'and/or' linking bypass and solicitation, which may be read as two independent prohibitions. The canonical claim states both as the primary proposition given their close relationship. No other independent legal effects were omitted.
The updated terms establish a new GenAI Features category available through the Service and specify the operational and liability framework governing their use. GenAI Features are provided on an 'as is, as available' basis with no warranties regarding accuracy, reliability, or fitness for any purpose. Under the revised terms, users assume sole responsibility for evaluating and verifying any outputs generated by GenAI Features before taking action based on them. Where chatbot functionality is included, the terms specify that chatbot responses are informational only, may be inaccurate or incomplete, and users must not submit personal data to chatbots. RapidAPI disclaims all liability for losses arising from reliance on GenAI or chatbot outputs.
