Terms

Who you're agreeing with

forgestead
privacy@forgestead.tech

Your account

You need to be 16 or older. Sign in with your own Google account, keep it secure, and tell us if you think someone else is using your account. One account per person.

What it costs

Nothing at the moment. There are no fees, no trial that turns into a payment, and no card is asked for. If that ever changes, it won't apply to you until you've been told what it costs and agreed to it.

Your code

Code you write is yours. Exports give you it as an ordinary repository you can keep, share and use for anything. You let us store it and run its tests so the service works, and nothing else.

Our course content

The lessons, starter code, reference solutions, tests and diagrams are ours. You may use them to learn, and keep what you export for your own use. Please don't republish the course itself, or the reference solutions of challenges.

Using it fairly

Don't try to break into the service or other people's accounts, get around the limits on runs and requests, use the code runner for anything but your lessons, or put anything unlawful into it. We may suspend an account that does, and we'll tell you why.

The mentor

When it's switched on, the mentor's answers are written by an AI model (Claude, by Anthropic). They can be wrong. The tests decide whether your code works, not the mentor. The privacy page says what's sent to answer a question.

Availability and changes

Forgestead is still being built: things will change, and the service may be down at times. We'll keep your progress and code through changes, and give you notice and a way to export before anything that would remove them. When these terms change in a way that matters, we'll tell you before it takes effect.

Ending it

You can delete your account whenever you like, from your profile; everything in it goes with it.

Liability

Forgestead is provided as it is, free of charge. As far as the law allows, we aren't liable for indirect losses or for code you build with it. Nothing here limits rights you have that the law says can't be limited.

Which law applies

The law of the country in the operator's address above, and its courts. If you're a consumer, you keep the protections the law of your own country gives you and can bring a claim there.
