Reliance on API
Sedro is still evolving, and we need the flexibility to occasionally make changes to our APIs, including backwards incompatible ones. Also, parts of our API are undocumented, including certain methods, events, and properties. Given that these undocumented aspects of our API may change at any time, you should not rely on these behaviors.
Applicable laws or agreements

Modification of the TOU
We may change, add to or delete this TOU or any portion thereof from time to time in our sole discretion. If we make a material change to this TOU, we will provide you with reasonable notice prior to the changes either by emailing the email address associated with your account or by posting a notice on the Developer Site. You acknowledge that these updates and modifications may adversely impact how you access, use, and communicate with the Sedro API. If any change in unacceptable to you, then your only recourse is to cease all use of the Sedro API.
