Terms of Service

Last updated: February 2026

1. Nature of the Service

ApeType is an educational typing fluency platform. It is not an IDE, remote code execution sandbox, or compiler service. Source code displayed on the platform is intended purely for typing practice and transcription drills.

2. Content Ownership and Licensing

Curated code snippets are provided under standard open-source licenses (such as MIT or Apache 2.0). When you author and submit a snippet for public publication, you certify that you have the right to publish that code and grant ApeType permission to display it for typing practice.

3. Competitive Integrity & Leaderboards

To maintain fairness on public leaderboards, automated script injection, synthetic keystroke generators, and botting are strictly prohibited. Sessions failing heuristics validation are automatically flagged.
