Terms of use

These terms govern access to Slipmill, including slipmill.com, the render API, and related software. By creating an account or sending a request with a Slipmill key, you agree to them. The privacy policy, DPA, and AI page are part of this agreement.

What this is not

Slipmill takes JSON and returns a PDF. Two locked templates we own: packing-slip and invoice. You do not send HTML or CSS. We do not ship boxes. We do not buy postage, talk to a carrier, or print a customs commercial invoice. We are not a tax engine. Amounts are integer cents, printed as sent.

The service

We do not provide legal, tax, accounting, or shipping advice. Addresses and tax figures are printed as you send them.

Who owns what

You own the JSON, logos, and PDF bytes that come back from a render. We own the API, the two templates, and the Slipmill marks. A Slipmill key is a credential. It is not a license to the templates or the marks.

AS-IS

THE SERVICE IS PROVIDED “AS IS” AND “AS AVAILABLE.” MEDIA YARD LLC DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, AND NON-INFRINGEMENT. We do not warrant uninterrupted operation, error-free PDFs, or that a packing slip will satisfy a carrier, marketplace, or auditor.

Accounts and keys

You are responsible for every request sent with a key issued to your account. Treat the key as a secret. Do not commit it to a public repository. There is no human review of each render. Quota is enforced; Starter and Pro stop at the included cap. Scale meters overage when configured in Stripe.

Acceptable use

You must be 18 or older. Use is for a business or other organization, not a personal consumer playground. Do not use Slipmill for illegal content, malware, probing, or overload. A logo URL is outbound HTTPS you authorize so we can print the image. It is not a proxy, a crawler, or a vision API. Do not send file:// URLs or internal hosts.

Report abuse to support@slipmill.com with the subject line Abuse.

Export and sanctions

You may not use the service if US export-control or sanctions law forbids it. You are responsible for where you run your key.

Fees

Paid plans are billed by Stripe. Prices are as listed on the pricing page at the time of checkout. Failed payments may return the account to Starter.

No SLA

There is no service-level agreement and no service credit. Support is email, best effort. See support.

Confidentiality

Order payloads may include customer names and addresses. We treat that content as confidential and use it to render the PDF, operate the account, and meet the law. We do not sell it. See the privacy policy and DPA.

Your indemnity

You will defend and indemnify Media Yard LLC against claims that arise from the JSON, logos, or PDF content you send or receive, including alleged infringement or privacy claims about data you chose to post.

Close and suspend

You may close the account from Settings. That revokes keys and ends new renders. We may suspend or close an account that breaks these terms, overloads the mill, or presents legal risk. Sections that by nature should survive — including ownership, AS-IS, limitation, indemnity, and venue — survive close. Stored metadata is handled as the DPA describes (return or delete, at your choice).

Privacy and DPA

Using the service includes the DPA. If you need a countersigned copy, email privacy@slipmill.com. Where the JSON contains personal data, you are the controller and we are the processor — or, if you yourself are a processor, you are the processor and we are the sub-processor.

Limitation

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Media Yard LLC is not liable for indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost data, or substitute services. Our aggregate liability for a claim relating to the service will not exceed the fees you paid us in the three months before the claim. Nothing here limits liability for death or personal injury caused by negligence, for fraud, or for rights that UK or EU law will not let a business exclude, or a data subject’s rights under the Standard Contractual Clauses in the DPA.

No lawyer on staff

Nothing on this site is legal advice. Media Yard LLC does not hold itself out as a law firm and does not have lawyers on staff to review your slips, invoices, or tax figures.

Venue

These terms are governed by the laws of the State of New Jersey, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Exclusive venue lies in the state or federal courts located in New Jersey. That does not override the Ireland forum in the Standard Contractual Clauses for claims those Clauses give to data subjects.

Boilerplate

This is the entire agreement for the service. You may not assign it without our written consent. We may assign it with the product. We are not liable for delay caused by events beyond reasonable control. We may change these terms by emailing the account address or posting here; continued use after notice is acceptance.
