# Neotoma Public Sandbox - Terms of Use

Version 1.0.0 · effective 2026-04-23

This deployment at sandbox.neotoma.io is a public, read/write demo of Neotoma intended to let developers evaluate the product without installing it locally.

## What you agree to by using it

- **All data is public.** Anything you store is visible to every other

sandbox user. Do not submit personal information, credentials, internal business data, or anything you would not be comfortable publishing.

- **Data is wiped weekly** at Sunday 00:00 UTC. The dataset is

re-seeded from a fixed set of synthetic fixtures and public-domain text.

- **No abuse.** Do not submit illegal content, harassment, spam, or content

that violates third-party rights. Violations may be purged out-of-cycle and the submitting IP rate-limited or blocked.

- **No production use.** The sandbox is for evaluation only. Uptime,

correctness, and data durability are explicitly best-effort.

- **Rate-limited writes.** Writes are capped per-IP to keep the demo

responsive. The HTTP API returns 429 when you exceed the limit.

- **Destructive admin routes are disabled.** Entity merge/split, schema

deletion, and snapshot-recomputation return 403. Install Neotoma locally for the full admin surface.

## Reporting abuse or PII leaks

- Use the in-app **Report abuse** link in the Inspector banner, or POST

directly to `/sandbox/report`.

- For urgent issues, email abuse@neotoma.io.
- Reports receive an access\_token. Save it — it is the only way to check

resolution status later.

## Privacy

- We log request IPs at the edge for abuse investigation. IPs are hashed

before being stored in any abuse report record.

- Emails, phone numbers, and API tokens present in submitted content are

automatically redacted to `<LABEL:hash>` placeholders.

- No cookies or accounts are required.

## No warranty

The sandbox is provided "as is" without warranty of any kind.

For agents and tools, the same text is returned as JSON from [https://sandbox.neotoma.io/sandbox/terms](https://sandbox.neotoma.io/sandbox/terms). Also see the [sandbox overview](/sandbox), the site [privacy notice](/privacy), and [terms of use](/terms).
