If you do not agree to these Terms, you may not use the Service in any way.
The Service is available for both registered and non-registered Users, however Users may benefit from registering, because it allows them to access their saved projects across other devices or browsers, join our premium membership program and access our Extension. If you choose to register, a personal User Account will be created once you sign-up directly to our Service or through third party providers, such as Google or GitHub ("Third Party Providers") and agree to these Terms and to the privacy policy (the "Account" or "User Account").

We will explicitly indicate the fields for mandatory completion. If you do not enter the requisite data in these fields, you will not be able to register with the Service.
You are prohibited from selling or transferring your Account or your login details, such as username and password, in any way to any third party.
You are fully accountable for any outcome that may result from your failure to provide true, accurate and complete details when signing-up to our Service. You are solely responsible and liable for all activities performed with or through your User Account due to breaching these Terms.

For more details on the available options for commercial use to the Extension and Service, please contact us at: [email protected].
Basic functionality of the Service is provided at no cost, that may be limited to a specified evaluation period. However, you may Join our premium membership program, Wokwi's Club, to get access to advanced features, continuing your use of the Service after the evaluation period has expired or subscribe for our commercial license to the Service and the Extension. In that case you will be required to pay for a monthly subscription plan. Payment is available by credit card, through PayPal or through any other payment method as we may determine from time to time. Payment and subscription plans are operated on our behalf by Paddle.com, who also handle order related inquiries.A delay in payment exceeding 7 days may automatically result in the cancellation of your subscription and Account.
If you subscribe to our Services, we reserve the right to change from time to time and in our own discretion the subscription fees and the available subscription plans. If we do so, we will notify you of such changes in advance, by sending an email message to the mailbox you provided during registration. Your continued use of the Service after we sent the notification will constitute your consent to the new subscription fees or plans.
Fees we present on the Service are exclusive of taxes. To the extent that we are required by law to do so, you authorize us to charge you with the applicable taxes in accordance with tax laws.
Please note that payment may therefore be subject to commissions charged by external service providers in accordance with their terms of use. You will bear sole liability for paying those commissions.
You can cancel your paid subscription at any time in the subscriptions dashboard. Your cancellation will become effective only at the subsequent subscription period (e.g., the next month, for a monthly subscription), such that you will still be charged for the current subscription period but will not be further charged for subsequent subscription periods.
You may upload to the Service, create, use, edit, share with other Users or otherwise provide content, ranging from Arduino libraries and projects to virtual hardware. Content that you and other Users upload, create, use, edit, share or otherwise provide through the Service will be referred to as "User Content". For the avoidance of doubt, when submitting your project through the Extension, User Content will not include your project's non-compiled source code, as all the compilation occurs on your systems, not ours.
