Terms of Service
Last updated July 17, 2026
These terms govern your use of Qualmie's website and API. By creating an account or calling the API, you agree to them.
The service
Qualmie provides an API that returns phone-number liveliness signals — validity, live status, reachability, line type, carrier, and risk. We may change or improve the service over time.
Accounts & API keys
You are responsible for activity under your account and keys. Keep secret keys confidential; rotate or revoke them if compromised. Do not share your account or resell access without our written consent.
Acceptable use
You agree not to:
- use the service unlawfully or to harm, harass, or defraud;
- violate telemarketing, calling, or messaging laws (e.g. TCPA) — a liveliness result is not consent to contact a number;
- build a competing dataset by scraping or bulk-exporting results beyond your own use;
- circumvent rate limits, quotas, or security, or probe the service for vulnerabilities without authorization.
You are responsible for having a lawful basis to process the numbers you submit.
Plans, billing & credits
Paid plans renew automatically until cancelled. Prepaid lookup packs are one-time purchases and are generally non-refundable. Fees exclude taxes. We may change pricing with notice; changes apply to the next billing cycle.
Data & accuracy
Signals are provided on a best-effort, “as is” basis and may be incomplete or incorrect. Do not use them as the sole basis for decisions that produce legal or similarly significant effects about a person. You are responsible for how you use the results.
Disclaimers & liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, the service is provided without warranties, and Qualmie is not liable for indirect or consequential damages. Our total liability is limited to the amounts you paid in the 12 months before the claim.
Termination
You may stop using the service at any time. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate these terms or create risk. On termination, your right to use the service ends.
Changes & contact
We may update these terms; material changes will be posted here. Questions? Email hello@qualmie.com.
