SAHMK Legal

Developer Usage Terms

Practical API usage rules to help teams integrate SAHMK endpoints safely and responsibly.

API Key Security

  • Keep API keys confidential and never expose them in public repos or client-side code.
  • Use separate keys per environment and rotate credentials regularly.

Rate Limits and Fair Use

  • Stay within your plan limits and expected traffic profile.
  • Handle throttling responses (such as 429) using backoff and retry logic.

Prohibited Behavior

  • No abuse, automated attacks, or disruption attempts.
  • No sharing, selling, or transferring API keys to third parties.
  • No attempts to bypass throttling, authentication, or security controls.

Responsible Endpoint Automation

  • Use automation in ways that do not create unnecessary infrastructure load.
  • Monitor unusual usage patterns and stop harmful traffic promptly.
