DICloak IP Resource Use Agreement

1.1 “IP Resource Services” means proxy network resources and related discovery, purchase, configuration, connectivity, metering, and support features provided by DICloak directly or through third-party providers. The resource type, region, protocol, traffic allowance, validity period, and concurrency limits are those shown on the product or order page.

1.2 DICloak may act only as a resource aggregator, transaction facilitator, technical access provider, or management tool. A third-party provider is an independent service provider and does not become our agent, employee, or affiliate by working with DICloak.

1.3 IP resources are dynamic network resources. Actual exit addresses, route status, latency, bandwidth, connectivity, geolocation database results, and acceptance by target websites may change. We do not promise uninterrupted availability, absolute anonymity, or suitability for any particular platform or activity.

1.4 You must understand and comply with the laws, industry requirements, and third-party platform terms applicable in your location, the resource location, and the location of any target service. You must obtain all authorizations, permissions, and lawful bases required for your use.

1.5 DICloak provides neutral technical and resource services. We do not participate in or control the content you access, publish, transact, or process through an IP resource, and we do not guarantee any business outcome.

1.6 We may amend this Agreement to reflect legal or policy changes, provider changes, risk controls, cybersecurity needs, or product operations. We will give notice of material changes through the website, in-product notice, or another reasonable method. Continued use after an amendment takes effect constitutes acceptance.

2.1 While you comply with this Agreement and pay all applicable fees, we grant you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, and revocable right to use the IP resource service for lawful purposes within the purchased specifications and validity period.

2.2 You must safeguard your account, access credentials, and proxy connection details and must not share them with unauthorized parties. Activity performed through your account or credentials will generally be treated as your activity. If you discover disclosure, theft, or abnormal access, stop using the credentials and contact us promptly.

2.3 You must not use, or help another person use, an IP resource to:

• violate applicable law or infringe national security, public interests, or the lawful rights of another person;
• conduct network attacks, malicious scanning, intrusion, malware distribution, spam, phishing, fraud, account theft, money laundering, gambling, or other unlawful activity;
• circumvent access controls, identity checks, security systems, risk controls, regional restrictions, or reasonable restrictions imposed by a third-party platform;
• misrepresent identity, origin, or location to deceive another person, or conduct false advertising, sham transactions, artificial traffic, subsidy abuse, or other improper gain;
• scrape, collect, or process personal data, account data, or other protected information without authorization or a valid legal basis;
• interfere with, damage, or place an excessive burden on DICloak, a provider, a target service, or another user's systems or networks;
• resell, rent, sublicense, share, or otherwise provide an IP resource to a third party without written permission; or
• probe or exploit vulnerabilities in DICloak or provider systems, or engage in conduct likely to cause complaints, bans, penalties, or security risks.

3.1 If we reasonably believe that you have violated this Agreement, applicable law, third-party rights, or created a material security risk, we may issue a warning, require remediation, restrict connections, suspend an order, freeze an account, terminate service, remove configurations, or refuse future purchases, depending on the risk.

3.2 To respond to lawful requests from authorities, rightsholders, network operators, or providers, we may preserve relevant records, perform verification, restrict suspected resources, and provide legally required or permitted assistance.

3.3 If service is restricted or terminated because of your violation, fees already paid are not refundable. You are responsible for complaints, claims, penalties, investigation costs, and other losses resulting from your conduct.

4.1 Prices, billing methods, resource allowances, validity periods, and renewal rules are those displayed when you place an order. We may change future pricing or specifications without affecting an order that has already taken effect.

4.2 IP resources may be allocated immediately and may consume bandwidth or traffic or trigger provider settlement. Once allocated, activated, connected, or consumed, they generally cannot be recovered and resold. Except where mandatory law requires otherwise, the product page expressly promises otherwise, or we confirm a material defect in the service itself, orders are not refundable, reversible, or exchangeable.

4.3 You authorize us to settle usage based on system records for duration, traffic, connections, or other billing units. If you believe a charge is incorrect, promptly submit the order number and supporting evidence. We will review available platform and provider records.

4.4 Unavailability caused by incorrect account configuration, target-site restrictions, geolocation database differences, your network environment or device, or failure of a third-party service is not a defect in the IP resource service itself.

5.1 IP Resource Services are provided “as is” and “as available.” To the fullest extent permitted by law, we disclaim express and implied warranties of continuity, error-free operation, particular speed, specific geolocation recognition, absolute security, and fitness for a particular purpose.

5.2 DICloak is not responsible for interruption, delay, blocking, data loss, or business loss caused by an independent provider, telecommunications network, internet conditions, target-site policy, force majeure, government action, or your configuration, although we may provide reasonable troubleshooting assistance.

5.3 You understand that an associated third-party platform may verify, restrict, or ban an account. You independently decide whether and how to use an IP resource and accept the resulting consequences for accounts, transactions, revenue, data, or reputation.

5.4 To the fullest extent permitted by law, DICloak is not liable for indirect, incidental, punitive, special, or consequential damages, or loss of profit, revenue, goodwill, data, or business opportunity. DICloak's aggregate liability arising from a particular IP resource order will not exceed the amount you actually paid for that order.

5.5 If your breach, unlawful use, or infringement of third-party rights causes DICloak, its affiliates, or a provider to incur claims, penalties, or losses, you must handle the matter and indemnify the affected parties for reasonable losses and expenses.

6.1 Intellectual property in the DICloak platform, software, interfaces, documents, trademarks, and related technology belongs to DICloak or the applicable rightsholder. This Agreement transfers no intellectual property to you and does not permit copying, modification, reverse engineering, or other use beyond the license granted.

6.2 Non-public technical details, interface information, pricing policies, provider information, access credentials, and security measures you learn through the service are confidential. Unless required by law or authorized in writing by the rightsholder, you must not disclose them or use them outside this Agreement.

7.1 You may stop using an IP resource service. Charges for activated or consumed resources remain governed by Section 4, and stopping use does not automatically create a right to a refund.

7.2 We may suspend or terminate all or part of the service when an order expires, funds are insufficient, a provider stops supplying resources, law or regulation requires it, an urgent security event or force majeure occurs, or you breach this Agreement.

7.3 On termination, your right to use the resources ends immediately. Payment obligations, limitations of liability, indemnities, intellectual property, confidentiality, and dispute provisions that by their nature should survive will remain effective.

8.1 The governing law and dispute-resolution rules in the DICloak Terms of Service apply to this Agreement, subject to any mandatory law that applies to you.

8.2 The parties should first attempt to resolve any dispute arising from this Agreement or an IP resource service through good-faith consultation. If no resolution is reached, either party may pursue the dispute in the forum specified by the DICloak Terms of Service.

8.3 If any provision is held invalid or unenforceable, the remaining provisions remain effective. A failure or delay in exercising a right does not waive that right.

8.4 Headings are for convenience only and do not affect interpretation. If versions of this Agreement in different languages conflict, the Chinese version controls unless mandatory law provides otherwise.
