You may need an account to access certain features. You are responsible for safeguarding your login credentials. All fees are quoted in USD; payment is due at checkout via Stripe.

You agree to defend and indemnify Anthrasite against any claims arising from your use of the Services, violation of these Terms, or infringement of third‑party rights.
