Acceptable Use Policy for CodeStream

June 3, 2021

New Relic’s mission is to instrument, measure and improve the internet to help our customers create more perfect software, experiences and businesses.

We strive to keep our resources operating efficiently, so our services are available to all subscribers. Because you have access to shared resources, we have put this Acceptable Use Policy (“AUP”) in place to ensure everyone has a great experience.

This AUP applies if you use any CodeStream product, service, software, website, forum, page or system (collectively, the “CodeStream Properties”) and is part of the CodeStream documentation, which can be found at http://docs.codestream.com/userguide/ (the “Documentation”).‍

You will not, and not allow third parties, in connection with your use of the CodeStream Properties to:
‍

Harm New Relic’s CodeStream Properties and interests, such as by:

  5. Drastically exceeding your contracted rate of use as set forth in your order or the Documentation; or

  • Deciphering or decrypting transmissions, circumventing any access, authentication or copy restrictions, or otherwise attempting to compromise the security of the CodeStream Properties (including any other user’s account);
  • Accessing the CodeStream Properties in order to build a similar or competitive website, application or service; or
  • Attempting to do anything else that may result in some form of adverse impact to the CodeStream Properties or use of the CodeStream Properties by any of our other customers.

CodeStream Properties do not include Separate Platforms

  • If you choose to use any Separate Platform, your use of Separate Platforms is wholly subject to your separate agreement with the relevant provider.
  • New Relic bears no responsibility or liability for Separate Platforms.
  • If you enable Separate Platforms with the CodeStream Properties, New Relic may access and exchange Customer Data with the Separate Platforms on your behalf and instruction.
  • Open source software that New Relic makes separately available for download (e.g. community tools) is, as required, governed by the terms of the applicable open source license.
  • The license for any open source software identified as included in CodeStream Properties will, as required, wholly apply to your use of that open source software.
