The Acceptable Use Policy, the API terms and the connector, privacy, retention, corrections and versioning documents were revised to match what the product does.
What changed
The Acceptable Use Policy now says what you may do, including business use and public criticism of vendors, and narrows the clauses that read as bans on both. The API terms carry a rights matrix and no longer require a credential Trooth does not issue. The connectors, privacy, retention, corrections, and API versioning documents were revised to match what the product does. The service level agreement now states, in one place, the remedies available to a reader who relies on Trooth for a critical decision. The downloadable trust documents no longer claim browser preload listing, external anchoring, or a software bill of materials that covers the Workers, because none of those is in place.
