Terms of use
These terms cover the ArchiLinks website, explorer and API. By creating an account or sending a request with a key, you agree to them.
ArchiLinks research team ·
Our link index is built by our own crawler and refreshed roughly once a month. It is a sample of the web, not a complete record, and it can lag behind the live web.
Accounts and keys
Sign-in is through Google. You are responsible for what happens under your account and with your API keys.
Keep keys out of public repositories and front-end code. If one leaks, rotate it. Calls made with your key are billed to you, whoever sent them.
Credit and payment
The API runs on prepaid credit. One credit is $0.0001, and each call has a price shown on the site. New accounts receive $100 of free credit.
Top-ups are made in USDT (TRC-20) from the account page. Credit is used for API calls and does not expire while the account stays active. Because the credit is prepaid for a digital service, unused paid balance is refunded only where required by law or where we have failed to provide the service. Promotional credit has no cash value.
Fair use
- Do not share a key across unrelated businesses or resell raw access without agreeing it with us first.
- Do not run requests designed to overload the service or bypass limits.
- Do not use the data to harass anyone or to breach someone else's rights.
- Respect the pagination cap of 50,000 rows per query.
What we promise and what we do not
We aim to keep the API available and accurate. We cannot promise uninterrupted service or that any figure matches another provider's, because other tools run different crawls.
We do not promise rankings. Traffic and other SEO outcomes are off the table too. Link data informs decisions and does not make them, and to the extent the law allows, our liability is limited to the amount you paid in the three months before the claim.
Ending and changing the agreement
You may stop using the service at any time. We may suspend an account that breaks these terms or puts the service at risk, and we will say why when we can.
We may update these terms. Material changes are announced on this page with a new date, currently 29 October 2026. Questions go to [email protected].
Questions about these terms, billing or a suspended account go to [email protected]. Include the Google address on the account, never a key.
