Terms of Use: Gapline website and newsletter
Ridgeline Technologies, LLC · Last updated: September 25, 2026
These Terms of Use (“Terms”) apply when you visit the Gapline website or subscribe to the Gapline newsletter (together, the “Service”). Gapline is operated by Ridgeline Technologies, LLC, a North Carolina limited liability company (“we,” “us”). By using the Service you agree to these Terms. If you do not agree, please do not use it.
These Terms do not apply to our Grafana plugins, which are covered by our End-User License Agreement. If we later offer paid features, additional terms will be shown before you buy.
1. The newsletter
The newsletter is free. We may change, pause, or stop it at any time. You can unsubscribe at any time using the link in every email. How we handle your email address is described in our Privacy Policy.
2. Information only, not advice
Everything in the Service is provided for general information. It is not business, legal, financial, or investment advice. Ideas we share are drawn from public posts and reviews and are scored by automated systems, including AI models, which can be wrong. We do not promise that any idea is real, buildable, lawful, profitable, or free of competition. You are responsible for your own research, including reading the terms of any platform or service you would build on, and for your own decisions.
3. Sources and third party content
We link to and paraphrase public posts, reviews, and other material written by other people. That material belongs to its authors and owners. Product and company names in the Service belong to their respective owners. We are not affiliated with them, and mentioning a product does not mean it endorses us or that we endorse it. Third party sites we link to are not under our control, and we are not responsible for them.
4. Using what we publish
The text, design, and compilation of the Service belong to Ridgeline Technologies, LLC. You are free to use the ideas we share to research or build your own products, and we claim no ownership of, or share in, anything you build. You may quote short excerpts with a link back to us. You may not republish the newsletter or the site in bulk, resell it, or present it as your own.
5. Acceptable use
Do not use the Service in a way that is unlawful, that interferes with or attempts to break the site or its security, or that copies its content by automated means at scale.
6. No warranty
The Service is provided “as is” and “as available,” without warranties of any kind, whether express or implied, including any warranty of accuracy, completeness, fitness for a particular purpose, or non infringement, to the fullest extent permitted by law.
7. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent permitted by law, Ridgeline Technologies, LLC and its members will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for lost profits, lost opportunities, or lost data, arising from your use of the Service or from any decision you make based on it. Because the Service is free, our total liability for any claim relating to it will not exceed one hundred U.S. dollars ($100). Some places do not allow certain limits, so parts of this section may not apply to you.
8. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms and will post the updated version with a new “Last updated” date. If you keep using the Service after a change, you accept the updated Terms.
9. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the State of North Carolina, without regard to its conflict of laws rules. Any dispute will be brought in the state or federal courts located in North Carolina.
