Effective date: April 2, 2026

1. Acceptance of Terms

By accessing or using Halo (the "Service"), including the CLI tool (runhalo), VS Code extension, website at runhalo.dev, and any associated services, you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service.

2. Nature of Service

Halo is a software analysis and compliance evidence tool. Halo scans source code, identifies patterns relevant to children's privacy regulations, and enables developers to document their compliance positions through structured attestations.

Halo does not provide legal advice, legal opinions, or compliance certifications.

The Service includes:

  • CLI (runhalo)
  • VS Code extension
  • AI Review Board
  • Developer Attestation Q&A layer
  • Dashboards and reports

3. Developer Attestations

Developer attestations represent the attesting party's own statements. Halo captures, timestamps, and preserves these. Halo does not independently verify accuracy.

4. No Compliance Guarantee

Halo's scan results and attestation records do not constitute a determination, certification, or guarantee of compliance with any law including COPPA, AADC, GDPR Article 8, or any state children's privacy law. Compliance determinations require review by qualified legal counsel.
