Terms of service
Plain-language terms: use the site honestly, own what you post, don't abuse the service, and understand that our data is carefully sourced but provided as-is — verify before you rely. Last updated 2026-08-20.
The service
QPU137 provides quantum-hardware reference data, an in-browser simulator and compiler (the Lab), courses, and a community forum. Reference content is free. Some course chapters require an account; paid plans, when live, are described on the pricing page — we don't charge silently and we don't auto-enroll you in anything.
Accounts
- You must give a working email and keep your password to yourself. You're responsible for activity under your account.
- You can delete your account at any time from the account page; deletion is immediate and permanent.
- We may suspend accounts that break these terms or the community guidelines, with warning where practical.
Your content
- Threads, replies, and shared experiments remain yours. By posting publicly you grant us the non-exclusive right to display and distribute them as part of the service.
- Don't post content you don't have the right to share, and don't post others' personal information.
- The community guidelines are part of these terms. Moderation (reporting, locking, removal) works as described there.
Honest limits
- Every hardware figure is sourced and dated, and our methodology is public — but vendors change specs, and errors happen despite our correction process. The service and its data are provided as-is, without warranty. Do not make procurement, investment, or safety decisions on our numbers without checking the primary sources we cite.
- The simulator and reference compiler are educational instruments with documented limits, not production toolchains.
- To the maximum extent the law allows, our liability is limited to the amount you paid us in the last 12 months (for free users: zero).
Fair use of the service
No scraping at abusive rates, no attempts to break authentication or other users' privacy, no spam. Security research on your own account is welcome; disclose findings to corrections@qpu137.com.
Changes
If these terms change materially we'll note it here with a new date; continued use after a change is acceptance. Questions: corrections@qpu137.com.
