Terms of Service

These Terms of Service are an agreement between you and Google (“Google”, “we”, “us”, “our”). "Google" has the meaning given at https://cloud.google.com/terms/google-entity. By accessing the site located at https://www.spectacles.dev/  (or its successor), or any other sites operated by Google, (collectively, the “Site”) or using the products and tools we provide (the “Service”), you agree to abide by these Terms of Service.

1. Overview of the Service
   1. As part of the Service, Google provides hosted continuous integration and developer tools that allow you to test and audit your Looker® instance, including content (such as Looks and Dashboards) and LookML® code. Subject to these Terms of Service, we grant you a personal, non-transferable, non-exclusive, revocable, limited right to access the Site, and if you register for the Service, to use the Service, in each case solely for your internal business purposes. This includes the right for you to make a reasonable number of copies of any of our published descriptions and specifications of the Site and Service (“Documentation”).
   2. In providing the Site and Service, we may process information such as the URL of your Looker instance, credentials of your Looker instance, the range of configurations you select in Services, your name and email address (“User Data”), and other information you may provide in connection with your use of the Site or Services.
   3. Trial. We may in our sole discretion offer free, limited trial access to the Service (“Trial”). If access to the Service is provided to you for a Trial, such access is governed by these Terms of Service. Trials are for evaluation purposes only. Google may terminate Customer’s Trial at any time in its sole discretion without prior notice and without any liability to you, to the extent permitted under applicable law, for any reason. After the Trial expires, you may continue using the Service only by enrolling in a paid Subscription, if available, or as we otherwise permit. During a Trial, no express or implied warranties shall apply to the Service, Services are provided “as-is” with all defects, and no technical or other support is included unless we elect to provide support.
   4. Beta. We may choose to make certain features, technologies, and services available to you that are not yet generally available, including, but not limited to, any products, services, or features designated or labeled as “alpha,” “beta,” “early access,” “preview,” “pilot,” “trial,” “non-production,” or similar designation (each, a “Beta Service”). If you choose to access and/or use any Beta Service, such access and/or usage will be governed by these Terms of Service. In order to access the Beta Service, you may be required to accept additional terms and conditions applicable to such service and/or acknowledge acceptance of these Terms of Service. You must comply with all terms related to any Beta Service that Google posts through or on the Service or otherwise provides to Customer. Google may add or modify terms, including lowering or raising any usage limits, related to access to or use of any Beta Service at any time. If you provide Google with feedback relating to the Beta Service, Google will own and may use and evaluate all feedback for its own purposes. We may suspend or terminate your access to or use of any Beta Service at any time in our sole discretion. Your access to and use of any Beta Service will automatically terminate upon the release of a generally available version of the applicable Beta Service, upon your purchase of any such Service (to the extent purchase is available), or upon notice of termination by Google. You agree that, as between you and us, we own all legal rights, title and interest in and to all Beta Services, including all intellectual property rights, and except for the permissions granted herein, no other rights or permissions to the Beta Service is granted. WITHOUT LIMITING ANY DISCLAIMERS IN THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, BETA SERVICES ARE NOT GENERALLY AVAILABLE AND ARE NOT READY FOR GENERAL COMMERCIAL RELEASE, AND NOTWITHSTANDING ANYTHING TO THE CONTRARY IN THESE TERMS OF SERVICE, GOOGLE PROVIDES BETA SERVICES “AS IS.” GOOGLE MAKES NO REPRESENTATIONS OR WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, WHETHER EXPRESS, IMPLIED, STATUTORY, OR OTHERWISE REGARDING BETA SERVICES, INCLUDING ANY WARRANTY THAT THE BETA SERVICES WILL BECOME GENERALLY AVAILABLE. GOOGLE IS UNDER NO OBLIGATION TO RETAIN ANY USER DATA PROVIDED TO, THROUGH, OR IN CONNECTION WITH ANY BETA SERVICES. GOOGLE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO TRANSFER ANY USER DATA PROVIDED TO, THROUGH, OR IN CONNECTION WITH BETA SERVICES TO PURCHASED SERVICES. THEREFORE, YOU SHOULD DOWNLOAD OR OTHERWISE SAVE ON ITS OWN SYSTEMS ANY SUCH USER DATA BEFORE THE END OF A BETA SERVICE. ANY OBLIGATIONS UNDER OUR DATA PROCESSING AGREEMENT FOR GOOGLE TO RETAIN USER DATA SHALL NOT APPLY. EXCEPT TO THE EXTENT PROHIBITED BY LAW, GOOGLE DISCLAIMS ALL WARRANTIES, INCLUDING ANY IMPLIED WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTABILITY, FITNESS FOR A PARTICULAR PURPOSE, OR NON-INFRINGEMENT.
