Terms of Service
Last Updated: April 18, 2026
Welcome to GDPQuery.ai (the “Platform,” “we,” “our,” or “us”). By accessing or using our website, AI-powered macroeconomic research terminal, charting studio, and related services (collectively, the “Services”), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service (“Terms”). If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not access or use the Services.
1. Eligibility
You must be at least 18 years of age, or the age of legal majority in your jurisdiction, to use the Services. By creating an account or using the Platform, you represent and warrant that you meet this requirement and have the legal capacity to enter into a binding contract.
2. Product Overview & Service Delivery
GDPQuery.ai provides an AI-powered macroeconomic research terminal and charting studio. Users can input natural language queries to retrieve, visualize, and analyze public economic data, as well as generate analyst-style commentary using our AI pipelines.
3. AI & Data Accuracy Disclaimer (CRITICAL)
The Services are provided on an “AS IS” and “AS AVAILABLE” basis. You explicitly acknowledge and agree that:
- LLM Hallucinations & Errors: Our platform utilizes Large Language Models (LLMs) and automated data pipelines to generate data queries, perform calculations, and produce analytical commentary. While we strive for high precision, AI-generated outputs may contain factual errors, miscalculations, or “hallucinations.”
- No Guarantee of Accuracy: We do not warrant that the charts, data visualizations, or generated text are accurate, complete, reliable, or current.
- Independent Verification: You are solely responsible for independently verifying any data, chart, or analysis generated by GDPQuery.ai before publishing it or relying upon it in any professional capacity.
4. Not Financial Advice
GDPQuery.ai is strictly an informational and educational research tool.
- None of the charts, data, AI-generated insights, or commentary provided by the Platform constitute financial, investment, trading, tax, or legal advice.
- We are not a registered investment advisor, broker-dealer, or financial institution.
- Zero Liability for Financial Losses: We bear absolutely zero liability for any financial losses, trading decisions, or investment strategies made based on outputs from our Platform. You assume all risks associated with your use of the data.
5. Third-Party Data Sources & Upstream APIs
Our platform ingests and visualizes public economic data sourced from government and third-party APIs, including but not limited to the Federal Reserve Economic Data (FRED), the Bureau of Economic Analysis (BEA), the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), Alpha Vantage, and the U.S. Census Bureau.
- Upstream Terms: By using GDPQuery.ai, you agree not to use our Platform in a manner that violates the upstream Terms of Service of these public data providers.
- Data Freshness & Revisions: You acknowledge that upstream economic data is subject to frequent revisions (e.g., advance, preliminary, and final estimates). We are not responsible for upstream data revisions, restatements, delayed release times, API outages, or underlying inaccuracies.
6. Subscriptions, Billing, & Credits
We offer different subscription tiers, including a Free tier and paid tiers (such as Creator and Enterprise).
- Credits: Analyst Credits are allocated based on your subscription tier as displayed in your account dashboard. We may also grant promotional credits at our discretion, including a one-time five-credit (+5) bonus for opting into our macroeconomic newsletter (limited to one grant per verified account). Promotional credits may be revoked for abuse (e.g., duplicate accounts, unverified-email farming).
- Third-Party Payment Processor: All payments are processed securely through our third-party payment processor, Stripe. We do not directly collect or store your full credit card information.
- Taxes: Subscription fees are exclusive of applicable federal, state, local, or other governmental sales, goods and services, or other taxes. You are responsible for paying all applicable taxes associated with your purchases, which will be calculated and added at checkout where required.
- Auto-Renewal: Paid subscriptions automatically renew at the end of each billing cycle (monthly or annually) unless canceled prior to the renewal date.
- Cancellation & Refunds: You may cancel your subscription at any time through your account settings. Cancellation will take effect at the end of your current billing cycle. We do not offer prorated refunds for mid-billing-cycle cancellations.
- Boost Packs: Purchases of additional “Boost Packs” (non-expiring Analyst Credits) are one-time transactions and are strictly non-refundable once purchased.
7. Acceptable Use & Prohibited Activities
You agree to use GDPQuery.ai only for its intended purpose as a research terminal and charting studio. Users are encouraged to export their generated charts and data via our provided export tools. However, the following activities are strictly prohibited:
- Automated scraping, crawling, or extracting data/charts from the Platform using bots or undocumented scripts. (Note: This does not prohibit the standard rendering of our generated iframe embed codes on third-party websites).
- Excessive data extraction, exporting, or querying that disproportionately burdens our infrastructure or degrades platform performance for other users, as determined by our published rate limits and fair-use guidelines.
- Using our AI tools to generate, promote, or disseminate illegal, harassing, defamatory, hate speech, or otherwise harmful content.
- Reverse engineering, bypassing, or attempting to replicate our algorithms, AI routing, proprietary data processing, or versioning systems.
- Attempting to manipulate, bypass, or defraud our credit-tracking and billing systems.
- Removing, cropping, or obscuring the GDPQuery.ai watermark on Free tier image exports.
- Removing, editing, or obscuring the “Chart via GDPQuery.ai” (or equivalent) attribution line automatically appended to AI Copywriter drafts generated on the Free tier.
- Falsely claiming or implying that the Platform’s outputs are certified financial advice.
