Terms of Service

Effective date: 20 August, 2026

These Terms of Service (the “Terms”) form a binding agreement between Dane Commercial Services Ltd, a company organized under the laws of England and Wales, with registered office at 61 Bridge Street, Kington, United Kingdom, HR5 3DJ (“Funny Monitors,” “we,” “us,” or “our”), and the person or entity that accesses or uses the Services (“Customer,” “you,” or “your”).

These Terms govern your access to and use of funnymonitors.com, our dashboards, applications, APIs, monitoring infrastructure, notification systems, status pages, reports, support, and related products and services (collectively, the “Services”).

By creating an account, purchasing a subscription, clicking to accept these Terms, or accessing or using the Services, you agree to these Terms. If you use the Services for an organization, you represent that you have authority to bind that organization, and “you” includes that organization. If you do not agree, do not use the Services.

Our Privacy Policy and Refund Policy are incorporated into these Terms by reference. If a signed order form or written enterprise agreement expressly conflicts with these Terms, that signed agreement controls only to the extent of the conflict.

1. Eligibility and authority

You must be at least 18 years old, or the age of legal majority where you live, and legally capable of entering into this agreement. The Services are not directed to children.

You may use the Services only in compliance with applicable law, these Terms, and any documentation or plan limits we publish. If you accept these Terms for a business or other organization, you confirm that you have authority to do so.

2. Accounts and account security

You must provide accurate, current, and complete account and billing information and keep it updated. You are responsible for:

  • safeguarding passwords, API keys, authentication tokens, recovery codes, and other credentials;
  • all activity performed through your account, including activity by your users, contractors, and integrations;
  • assigning appropriate permissions to team members and promptly removing access when it is no longer needed; and
  • notifying us promptly at [email protected] if you suspect unauthorized access, credential compromise, or another security incident involving your account.

Each individual team member must use their own authorized access credentials; credentials may not be shared. You may add an unlimited number of team members to your account on every plan at no additional charge. You are responsible for ensuring that every team member is authorized to access the account and complies with these Terms. We may require identity, account ownership, or payment verification where reasonably necessary to protect the Services or comply with law.

3. The Services

Funny Monitors provides automated tools that may check websites, servers, endpoints, ports, certificates, domains, DNS records, scheduled jobs, content, or other resources configured by you. Depending on your plan and configuration, the Services may collect measurements, retain monitoring history, generate reports or status pages, and send alerts through email, SMS, voice, push notifications, webhooks, or third-party integrations.

Features, check intervals, monitoring locations, data retention periods, usage allowances, support levels, and alert credits may vary by plan and may change over time. Team members are unlimited and included at no additional charge on every plan. Descriptions on our pricing or product pages form part of the applicable offering but do not create a service-level guarantee unless we expressly agree to one in a signed writing.

Monitoring results are observations from particular locations and times. They can be affected by networks, DNS, caching, firewalls, rate limits, third-party systems, maintenance, configuration, and other factors. An “up,” “down,” performance, security, certificate, or similar result is not a definitive finding and should not be your sole basis for operational, security, legal, financial, or safety-critical decisions.

4. Your monitoring targets and authorization

You may configure the Services to access or test a domain, server, endpoint, account, system, or other resource only if you own it or have all permissions required to monitor it in the manner configured.

You are responsible for your monitor settings, frequency, request method, headers, payloads, authentication data, test data, contact lists, escalation rules, integrations, and alert recipients. You must ensure that monitoring traffic and notifications do not violate law, contract, third-party rights, provider rules, or technical restrictions.

You authorize us and our subprocessors to send the requests, perform the checks, process the data, and deliver the notifications that you configure. You acknowledge that our monitoring traffic may appear in access logs or trigger security controls, usage charges, automated defenses, or third-party alerts. You are responsible for allowlisting our published monitoring addresses where appropriate and for any costs imposed by your providers or alert recipients.

5. Acceptable use

You must not use, or help anyone use, the Services to:

  • violate any law, regulation, court order, contract, or third-party right;
  • monitor, scan, probe, access, or test systems without sufficient authorization;
  • conduct or facilitate denial-of-service activity, credential attacks, vulnerability exploitation, malware delivery, spam, harassment, fraud, surveillance, or other harmful activity;
  • evade rate limits, access controls, usage limits, security measures, or account restrictions;
  • overload, disrupt, damage, or degrade the Services or any third-party service;
  • submit unlawful, infringing, deceptive, defamatory, harmful, or malicious content or data;
  • collect or process sensitive or regulated data through the Services unless the applicable feature is designed for it and you have entered into any required agreement with us;
  • reverse engineer, decompile, scrape, or attempt to discover source code or non-public elements of the Services, except where applicable law does not permit this restriction;
  • use the Services or their outputs to build, train, benchmark, or improve a competing monitoring service without our written permission;
  • resell, sublicense, white-label, timeshare, or redistribute the Services or their outputs except under a plan or written agreement that expressly permits it; or
  • misrepresent your identity, affiliation, monitoring results, or relationship with Funny Monitors.

We may investigate suspected misuse and may block requests, monitors, integrations, content, or accounts where reasonably necessary to protect users, third parties, or the Services. We may cooperate with lawful requests from authorities.

6. Fair use and service protection

You must remain within the limits of your plan, including any limits for monitors, check frequency, requests, data retention, API use, integrations, status pages, and notification credits. There is no plan limit or additional charge for team members. You may not divide usage across multiple accounts to avoid another applicable plan limit.

Even where a plan is described as “unlimited,” use must be reasonable and consistent with the plan’s intended purpose. If your use creates an unusual load, threatens stability or security, imposes disproportionate cost, or materially exceeds normal usage patterns, we may contact you to agree on remediation, require an appropriate plan, throttle or limit the affected use, or suspend it. Where practicable, we will provide notice and a reasonable opportunity to resolve the issue, except where immediate action is needed to prevent harm.

7. Customer data, content, and status pages

Customer Data means monitor configurations, endpoints, contact information, request data, integration data, status-page content, incident messages, logos, and other information submitted to or generated through your use of the Services. As between you and us, you retain your rights in Customer Data.

You grant us a worldwide, non-exclusive, limited license to host, copy, transmit, display, modify, and otherwise process Customer Data solely as needed to provide, secure, support, and improve the Services; prevent fraud and abuse; comply with law; and enforce these Terms.

You represent that you have all rights and permissions required for Customer Data and our processing of it as contemplated by these Terms. You are responsible for the accuracy and legality of public status pages, incident messages, custom domains, branding, and other material you publish through the Services.

Public status pages and feeds are intentionally public and may be indexed, cached, copied, or redistributed by third parties. Do not publish secrets, credentials, personal data, confidential information, or misleading availability claims. We may remove or restrict content that violates these Terms or creates legal, security, or operational risk.

8. Privacy and data protection

Our handling of personal data is described in our Privacy Policy. If we process personal data on your behalf as a processor or service provider, any applicable data processing addendum (“DPA”) made available by us will also apply.

You are responsible for determining whether the Services are appropriate for your data, providing required notices, obtaining required consents, responding to data-subject requests, and configuring retention and access controls. Unless we expressly agree otherwise in writing, you must not submit special-category, highly sensitive, health, biometric, payment-card, government-identifier, or similarly regulated personal data to the Services.

9. Third-party services and alert delivery

The Services may interoperate with third-party products, networks, payment processors, domain providers, certificate authorities, telecommunications providers, messaging services, and integrations. Those third parties may have separate terms, privacy practices, fees, limits, and availability.

We do not control and are not responsible for third-party services. Alerts may be delayed, filtered, duplicated, misrouted, rate-limited, or not delivered. You should maintain appropriate backup monitoring, notification, escalation, and recovery procedures. Enabling an integration authorizes us to exchange the data necessary to operate it.

10. Free services, trials, and beta features

We may offer free plans, trials, promotional credits, preview features, or beta functionality. We may change or discontinue them at any time, subject to applicable law. They may have reduced functionality, support, availability, or retention and are provided without service commitments.

Beta or preview features may be incomplete, unstable, or materially changed before general release. You use them at your own risk and must not rely on them for production-critical purposes unless we state otherwise in writing.

11. Fees, billing, taxes, and renewal

Paid Services are billed in advance at the price, currency, billing interval, and usage basis shown when you purchase them or set out in an order form. When you first purchase a paid subscription, your initial invoice will be calculated on a pro-rata basis for the period from the subscription start date through the final day of that calendar month. Beginning on the first day of the following month, and thereafter, you will be billed the full applicable subscription price for each billing period. You authorize us and our payment processor to charge your selected payment method for subscription fees, usage charges, add-ons, applicable taxes, and other amounts you approve.

Unless stated otherwise:

  • subscriptions automatically renew for successive periods equal to the initial subscription period;
  • the then-current fees apply at renewal;
  • upgrades may take effect immediately and may be prorated;
  • Downgrades and subscription cancellations take effect immediately as described below; and
  • unused plan allowances, alert credits, or other entitlements do not roll over or have cash value.

You may cancel your subscription through your account settings by selecting the “Cancel Subscription” button. Subscription cancellation takes effect immediately: it does not merely stop the next renewal. When you confirm cancellation, your account access ends and the account-deletion process described in Section 18 begins immediately. You will lose access to the remainder of any current paid period, and no refund or credit will be provided except where required by law or expressly stated in our Refund Policy.

Fees exclude taxes unless expressly stated. You are responsible for applicable sales, use, VAT, GST, withholding, or similar taxes, other than taxes based on our net income. If law requires withholding, you must pay any additional amount necessary for us to receive the amount invoiced, unless prohibited by law.

We may change prices prospectively. For an existing paid subscription, a price change will ordinarily take effect at the next renewal after we provide reasonable notice.

12. Add-ons

You may purchase optional add-on bundles in addition to your main subscription (“Add-ons”). Add-ons may include a combination of voice-call credits, SMS credits, and a stated quantity of add-on seats or capacity. The quantity of voice-call credits, SMS credits, and add-on seats or capacity included, and the price attributable to them, will depend on the Add-on bundle you select. Add-on seats or capacity are separate from team-member access, which remains unlimited and included at no additional charge on every plan.

All Add-ons are billed monthly, regardless of whether your main subscription is billed monthly or annually. Add-on charges are separate from the price and billing cycle of your main subscription and will recur each month until cancelled.

You may cancel an Add-on at any time. Unless otherwise stated during purchase, cancellation stops the Add-on from renewing at the next monthly renewal date, and the Add-on remains available until the end of the then-current paid monthly period.

Except where required by law or expressly provided in our Refund Policy, Add-on fees are non-refundable. Unused voice-call credits, SMS credits, add-on seats, or other unused Add-on capacity will not be refunded, credited, exchanged for cash, or applied against another purchase when you upgrade an Add-on, purchase a different Add-on, or purchase or change a main subscription plan.

13. Refunds, failed payments, and disputes

Refund eligibility and procedures are governed by our Refund Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms. Except as required by law or stated in that policy, fees are non-refundable and there are no credits for partially used periods, unused monitors, unused alert credits, or account inactivity.

If payment is overdue, declined, reversed, or charged back, we may retry the payment, limit paid features, suspend the account, or terminate the affected subscription after any notice required by law. You remain responsible for amounts properly incurred, reasonable collection costs where legally permitted, and keeping billing information current.

Please contact [email protected] before initiating a payment dispute so we can try to resolve the issue. Nothing in this section limits mandatory consumer rights.

14. Changes to the Services

We continually modify the Services. We may add, change, limit, or discontinue features, integrations, monitoring locations, APIs, alert channels, or plans. We will use reasonable efforts to give advance notice of a material reduction to a paid Service where practicable. We are not liable for changes made by third parties or changes required for security, legal compliance, abuse prevention, or service integrity.

15. Intellectual property

We and our licensors retain all rights, title, and interest in the Services, including software, designs, documentation, databases, trademarks, logos, and other technology and content, excluding Customer Data. These Terms give you a limited, non-exclusive, non-transferable, revocable right to use the Services during the term solely in accordance with these Terms. No rights are granted by implication.

Subject to your rights in Customer Data, we may use suggestions, feedback, or ideas you voluntarily provide without restriction or payment, and without identifying you publicly as the source.

If you believe material available through the Services infringes your intellectual-property rights, contact [email protected] with sufficient detail for us to assess the claim.

16. Confidentiality

Each party may receive non-public information that is identified as confidential or that reasonably should be understood to be confidential (“Confidential Information”). The receiving party will use reasonable care to protect it and will use it only to perform or exercise rights under these Terms. Confidential Information does not include information that the recipient can show was lawfully known without restriction, independently developed, rightfully received from another source, or made public without breach.

A recipient may disclose Confidential Information where required by law, after giving notice where legally permitted. Customer Data is your Confidential Information, subject to the processing rights and disclosures described in these Terms and the Privacy Policy.

17. Suspension

We may suspend or restrict access to all or part of the Services if:

  • you breach these Terms or an applicable policy;
  • fees are overdue;
  • your use poses a security, legal, abuse, or operational risk;
  • suspension is required by law or a third-party provider; or
  • we reasonably suspect fraud, unauthorized access, or harm to us, users, or third parties.

Where practicable, we will provide notice and an opportunity to remedy the issue. We may act immediately where delay could cause harm or legal exposure. Suspension does not relieve you of payment obligations already incurred.

18. Term and termination

These Terms begin when you first accept them or use the Services and continue until terminated. You may stop using the Services at any time and may cancel a paid subscription as described above.

We may terminate these Terms or your account for material breach if you do not cure the breach within a reasonable period after notice. We may terminate immediately for serious or repeated misuse, unlawful activity, security threats, fraud, non-payment, or where required by law. We may also discontinue the Services for business reasons by giving reasonable notice where practicable.

When you select and confirm the “Cancel Subscription” button, cancellation is effective immediately. At that moment:

  • your access to the account and Services ends;
  • all monitors, configurations, monitoring history, reports, status pages, incidents, integrations, contact and notification settings, API credentials, and other Customer Data associated with the account are permanently deleted from our active servers and Services;
  • monitoring and alert delivery stop immediately; and
  • the deleted account and Customer Data cannot be restored or recovered.

You are solely responsible for exporting any Customer Data you wish to retain before confirming cancellation. Cancellation will not be scheduled for the end of the billing period, and any remaining paid subscription time will be forfeited without refund or credit except where required by law or expressly stated in our Refund Policy.

The deletion commitment above applies to operational account and Customer Data. We may retain only the limited transaction, invoice, tax, fraud-prevention, dispute, or legal records that we are required or permitted to retain under applicable law. Such retained records will no longer be available through the cancelled account, will not be used to continue providing the Services, and will be deleted when the applicable retention obligation or lawful purpose ends.

Sections that by their nature should survive—including payment obligations, intellectual property, confidentiality, disclaimers, liability limits, indemnity, dispute terms, and miscellaneous provisions—will survive termination.

19. Disclaimers

To the maximum extent permitted by law, the Services are provided “as is” and “as available.” We disclaim all express, implied, statutory, and other warranties, including warranties of merchantability, satisfactory quality, fitness for a particular purpose, title, non-infringement, and any warranty arising from course of dealing or usage of trade.

We do not warrant that the Services will be uninterrupted, error-free, secure, or completely accurate; that every outage, incident, expiry, performance issue, content change, or other condition will be detected or reported; that every alert will be delivered; or that Customer Data will never be lost. Monitoring and alerts are supplemental tools, not a substitute for your own security, backup, disaster-recovery, redundancy, testing, and operational controls.

Nothing in these Terms excludes a warranty or right that cannot lawfully be excluded.

20. Limitation of liability

To the maximum extent permitted by law, neither party will be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, exemplary, punitive, or consequential damages, or for loss of profits, revenue, goodwill, anticipated savings, business opportunity, or data, even if advised that such loss is possible.

To the maximum extent permitted by law, Funny Monitors’ total aggregate liability arising out of or relating to the Services or these Terms will not exceed the greater of: (a) the fees you paid or payable to Funny Monitors for the Services during the 12 months immediately before the event giving rise to the claim; or (b) £100 GBP.

The exclusions and cap apply regardless of the legal theory and apply collectively to Funny Monitors, its affiliates, suppliers, licensors, officers, employees, contractors, and agents. They do not apply to liability that cannot lawfully be limited or excluded, which may include fraud, fraudulent misrepresentation, wilful misconduct, death or personal injury caused by negligence, or mandatory consumer liability.

The parties agree that these limitations reflect a reasonable allocation of risk and are an essential basis of the bargain.

21. Indemnification

To the extent permitted by law, you will defend, indemnify, and hold harmless Funny Monitors and its affiliates, officers, employees, contractors, and agents from third-party claims, damages, judgments, penalties, costs, and reasonable legal fees arising from:

  • your Customer Data, monitoring targets, monitor configurations, status pages, or notifications;
  • your use of the Services in breach of these Terms or applicable law;
  • your infringement or violation of another person’s rights; or
  • use of your account by a person you authorized or for whom you are responsible.

We will promptly notify you of a covered claim, provide reasonable cooperation at your expense, and allow you to control the defense and settlement, provided that you may not admit liability for us or impose obligations on us without our prior written consent. We may participate with counsel of our choice at our own expense.

22. Consumer rights

If you are a consumer, you may have mandatory rights under the law where you live, including cancellation or withdrawal rights. These Terms do not limit those rights. Provisions addressing business use, indemnity, venue, or limitations of liability apply to consumers only to the extent permitted by applicable law.

If digital Services begin during a statutory withdrawal period at your request, your cancellation or refund rights may be affected to the extent permitted by law. The Refund Policy should be reviewed for the procedure applicable to your purchase.

23. Force majeure

Neither party is liable for delay or failure caused by events beyond its reasonable control, including natural disasters, war, terrorism, civil unrest, labor disputes, government action, utility or telecommunications failures, internet or cloud-provider outages, cyberattacks, epidemics, or failures of suppliers. This section does not excuse payment obligations for Services already provided.

24. Changes to these Terms

We may update these Terms from time to time. We will post the revised version and update the “Last updated” date. If a change materially reduces your rights or increases your obligations, we will provide reasonable advance notice through email, the Services, or another appropriate method, unless an immediate change is required by law, security, or abuse prevention.

The revised Terms take effect on the stated effective date. If you do not agree, you must stop using the Services and cancel before the revised Terms take effect. Continued use after that date constitutes acceptance where permitted by law. Changes will not apply retroactively unless required by law or expressly agreed.

25. Governing law and disputes

These Terms are governed by the laws of England and Wales, without regard to conflict-of-law rules. Subject to any mandatory consumer rights, the courts of England and Wales will have exclusive jurisdiction over disputes arising from or relating to these Terms or the Services.

Before filing a formal claim, each party agrees to give the other written notice describing the dispute and to attempt in good faith to resolve it for at least 30 days. Either party may seek urgent injunctive relief where necessary to protect security, confidential information, or intellectual-property rights.

26. Notices

We may send operational and legal notices to the email address associated with your account, through the Services, or by posting them on our website. You are responsible for keeping your email address current. We do not maintain a separate legal-notices email address. Formal legal notices to Funny Monitors must be sent to Dane Commercial Services Ltd, 61 Bridge Street, Kington, United Kingdom, HR5 3DJ.

Routine support communications do not amend these Terms. Any amendment or waiver specific to you must be in writing and signed by an authorized representative of Funny Monitors.

27. Miscellaneous

These Terms, together with incorporated policies and any applicable order form or DPA, are the entire agreement concerning the Services and supersede prior discussions on that subject. You may not assign these Terms without our prior written consent. We may assign them in connection with a merger, acquisition, corporate reorganization, sale of assets, or by operation of law.

If any provision is unenforceable, it will be modified to the minimum extent necessary and the remaining provisions will remain effective. Failure to enforce a provision is not a waiver. Headings are for convenience only. The parties are independent contractors; these Terms do not create a partnership, joint venture, fiduciary, franchise, or employment relationship. There are no third-party beneficiaries except the persons expressly protected by the liability and indemnity provisions.
