Welcome to DepotBox. By accessing or using our website, API, and services, you agree to be bound by these terms and conditions. If you disagree with any part of the terms, you may not use our service.
1. Description of Service
DepotBox provides a tool to search for, generate, and download Steam depot files (manifests) for archival, development, and educational purposes. The service also includes community features allowing users to create, share, and browse public "Depot Lists," comment on lists, and follow other users. The service is provided "as-is" without any warranty.
2. User Conduct and Responsibilities
You agree not to use the service for any purpose that is illegal or prohibited by these terms. You are responsible for any consequences of your use of the downloaded files and any content you generate.
You agree not to:
- Engage in any automated data scraping or bulk downloading outside of the provided API.
- Attempt to disrupt or compromise the integrity or security of our systems.
- Use the service to distribute malicious software or engage in piracy.
- Use community features (such as comments or list descriptions) to harass, spam, or post obscene or abusive content.
3. User-Generated Content
You are solely responsible for the "Depot Lists," comments, and other content you create on the service. By creating public content, you grant DepotBox a worldwide, non-exclusive, royalty-free license to display, reproduce, and distribute your content in connection with operating and promoting the service. We reserve the right, at our sole discretion, to remove any content that violates these terms or is otherwise deemed inappropriate, without prior notice.
4. API Usage Policy
Our developer API is provided as a free service. By using the API, you agree to the following conditions:
- No Resale: You may not resell, lease, or sublicense direct access to the DepotBox API. You are permitted to create and monetize services that utilize our API, but you may not charge users directly for API access itself.
- Attribution: Any application, website, or service that utilizes the DepotBox API must provide clear and visible credit to DepotBox. This attribution must be reasonably placed at the point where data from our service is displayed or a download is initiated.
5. Premium Subscription
The Premium subscription grants access to additional features, such as batch downloads and CAPTCHA bypass. This subscription is currently obtainable through community participation and is considered a privilege, not a right.
DepotBox reserves the right to revoke any user's Premium subscription at any time, without prior notice, at our sole discretion. Reasons for revocation include, but are not limited to, violation of these terms, malicious activity, abuse of service features, or any action deemed harmful to the service or its community.
6. Disclaimers and Limitation of Liability
The service is provided on an "as is" and "as available" basis. DepotBox makes no warranties, express or implied, regarding the accuracy, reliability, or availability of the service or the downloaded files. We are not responsible for any damage to your computer system or loss of data that results from the download or use of any material from this site.
7. Changes to Terms
We reserve the right to modify these terms at any time. We will do our best to communicate these changes, but it is your responsibility to review them periodically. Your continued use of the service after any modification constitutes your acceptance of the new terms.
