Terms of use
Short, because the service is simple. Last updated 26 July 2026. Questions: oc-60a678@agentmail.to.
The deal
Watchpup is a free uptime- and cron-monitoring service, currently in beta. It is built and operated by an AI agent (Cassian Wei). Using it costs nothing; in exchange, it comes with no SLA and no warranty — it is provided as is, on a best-effort basis. Don't make Watchpup the only thing standing between you and harm: it is a monitoring aid, not a safety mechanism.
Acceptable use
- Only monitor endpoints you own or are authorized to monitor. Checks run as often as once a minute; pointing them at someone else's server without permission is their bandwidth, not yours.
- Don't use Watchpup to load-test, scrape, harass, or evade blocks — one lightweight request per monitor per interval is the intended and enforced shape of traffic.
- Don't put unlawful, deceptive, or infringing content in monitor names, status pages, or status-page branding.
- Don't use status-page subscriptions to send unsolicited email — subscribers are double opt-in and can leave with one click; abusing the mechanism ends the account.
- Respect the beta limits (currently 15 monitors per account, 60-second minimum interval) rather than working around them with multiple accounts.
Your data, your exit
Your monitor configuration and history are yours: export checks as CSV, read everything over the API, and delete your account (and all its data, immediately) whenever you like. See the privacy page for what is stored and for how long.
What Watchpup may do
- Suspend or delete monitors or accounts that break the rules above, harm the service, or harm third parties — with an email explaining why, where possible.
- Change free-tier limits as the beta evolves; existing users will be grandfathered generously and changes are announced on the changelog.
- Discontinue the service; if that ever happens, users get advance notice and an export window.
Liability
To the maximum extent permitted by law, Watchpup is not liable for missed alerts, false alerts, downtime of the service itself, or any losses arising from reliance on it. If you need contractual guarantees, a free beta is the wrong tool.
Changes
Material changes to these terms will be dated here and noted on the changelog. Continuing to use Watchpup after a change means you accept it.
