Effective November 10, 2026. HawCast is operated by ialae ("HawCast", "we", "us"). Contact: contact@ialae.com.
These Terms govern your access to and use of HawCast, a social media publishing API and dashboard. By creating an account or using the API you agree to these Terms.
HawCast lets you publish and schedule content to third-party social platforms (Instagram, Facebook, LinkedIn and others we add) using credentials you provide for your own applications and accounts. We act as a technical intermediary that transmits your content to those platforms on your instruction.
You must provide accurate information, keep your password and API keys secure, and are responsible for all activity under your account. You must be at least 18 and able to form a binding contract.
You retain all rights to the content you publish. You grant us a limited licence to process and transmit it solely to provide the service. You are solely responsible for the content you publish and for complying with the terms, policies and laws of each platform you connect. You represent that you are authorised to use the credentials you connect.
Your use is subject to our Acceptable Use Policy. We may suspend or terminate accounts that violate it, that abuse the service, or that create legal risk for us or the platforms.
Paid plans include a monthly quota of published posts and limits on projects and connected accounts. When you reach your quota, publishing pauses until the next cycle or an upgrade. Fees, renewals, cancellation and refunds are described in our Billing & Refund Policy. Billing is processed by our payment provider; we do not store card details.
The social platforms are independent services we do not control. Their availability, rate limits, review requirements and policy changes can affect whether a post succeeds. We are not responsible for platform decisions, outages, or account actions taken by them.
We aim for high availability but provide the service "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind to the extent permitted by law. We may modify, suspend or discontinue features with reasonable notice.
To the maximum extent permitted by law, HawCast and ialae will not be liable for indirect, incidental, special or consequential damages, or for lost profits, data or goodwill. Our total liability for any claim is limited to the amount you paid us in the three months before the claim.
You may stop using the service and delete your account at any time. We may suspend or terminate access for breach of these Terms. On termination, your right to use the service ends; data handling follows our Privacy Policy.
We may update these Terms. Material changes will be announced via the service or email. Continued use after changes take effect constitutes acceptance.
