Terms of Service
Terms for using the EconDash website, API, MCP server and paid access
Terms of Service
Last updated: November 2, 2026
These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of the EconDash website (econdash.org), the data API, the MCP server at mcp.econdash.org, and related services (together, the "Service"). By using the Service you agree to these Terms. Our Privacy Policy explains how we handle personal data.
1. The Service
EconDash provides:
- an interactive dashboard with economic indicators and charts;
- a data API with a free tier, paid subscriptions with API keys, and pay-per-call access for AI agents via the x402 and MPP protocols;
- a free, read-only MCP server that lets AI assistants (ChatGPT, Claude, Grok, Gemini and others) look up our data; see MCP server.
2. Accounts
People. You sign in through Dynamic.xyz with email, a social login or a crypto wallet. Keep your login and wallet secure and give accurate information.
Agents. AI agents and automated systems do not register. They use the free tier or pay per call; see Agent Payments.
One account per person. Do not create several accounts to get around limits, quotas or payments.
3. Subscriptions
Payment. Subscriptions are paid in cryptocurrency through NOWPayments and are prepaid for the selected period. Payment status is verified on our server through signed NOWPayments notifications.
No automatic renewal. A subscription does not renew by itself. When the period ends, you can pay for the next one from your dashboard; if you do not, your access returns to the free tier.
Refunds. Write to support@econdash.org within 7 days of payment. We decide case by case and send refunds to the original wallet in the original cryptocurrency.
Price changes. We announce price changes 30 days in advance. They do not affect a period you have already paid for.
4. API use
Free tier. Without an account, the API gives free access to a set of core indicators for 10 major economies, currently up to 300 requests per day and 30 per minute per IP address. Other indicators and countries, and requests above these limits, are answered with 402 Payment Required and can be paid per call or used with an API key.
API keys. Keys from your dashboard are personal. Do not share, resell or transfer them.
Rate limits. Exceeding the limits of your tier can lead to throttling or temporary suspension.
Acceptable use. You agree not to:
- use the Service for illegal purposes;
- resell or redistribute the data as a competing service;
- get around rate limits, quotas or payment requirements, including by rotating IP addresses or accounts;
- bulk-download the data through the website, the chart proxy or the MCP server instead of the API;
- disrupt or degrade the Service for others;
- reverse engineer the Service or extract its source code.
5. Pay-per-call access for agents (x402 and MPP)
How it works. Paid endpoints answer 402 Payment Required with the price, the accepted networks and the payment details. By sending a payment you accept the price stated in that response. Payments are settled on the blockchain.
When we consider a call delivered. A paid call is delivered when we return the requested data with a successful HTTP status after the payment has settled. If the payment does not settle, we do not return the data and nothing is charged by us.
If you paid but did not receive the data. A connection can break after the payment settles and before the response reaches you. Write to support@econdash.org within 30 days with:
- the payer wallet address;
- the transaction hash;
- the approximate time and the endpoint you called.
We check it against our payment log. If the payment settled and the data was not delivered, we will either deliver the data or refund the amount to the same wallet, at our choice.
Otherwise payments are final. Blockchain payments cannot be reversed by us. Apart from the case above, we do not refund individual paid calls.
6. MCP server
The MCP server at https://mcp.econdash.org/mcp is free, needs no account and only reads data. It does not take payments.
- It has rate limits, which may differ for requests from the servers of AI platforms and from other clients. Excessive or automated bulk use can be blocked.
- Answers in your AI assistant are written by that assistant's model, not by us. The model can misread or misquote our data. Check important figures on the EconDash chart page linked in the answer.
- Your use of the AI assistant itself is governed by its provider's terms.
7. Data and intellectual property
Economic data. The data comes from public sources such as the World Bank, IMF, WHO, FRED, OECD, Eurostat, the UN and national statistical agencies. We do not claim ownership of it. Each source keeps its own licence and attribution requirements; see Data licenses.
Our content. The EconDash name, logo, website design, code, charts, documentation and original content belong to us. Do not copy, modify or distribute them without our written consent, except for embedding charts as described in our embed documentation.
Your content. You keep ownership of anything you submit. You give us a limited licence to use it only to provide the Service to you.
8. No warranty
The Service is provided "as is" and "as available." We do not guarantee that the data is accurate, complete or current, that the Service is uninterrupted or error-free, or that it fits any particular purpose.
This is not financial advice. Do not base investment or business decisions only on data from EconDash. Consult a qualified professional.
9. Limitation of liability
To the fullest extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect, incidental or consequential damages, lost profits, revenue, data or business, or decisions made on the basis of the Service. Our total liability for any claim is limited to what you paid us in the 12 months before the claim.
10. Termination
You may stop using the Service at any time and ask us to delete your account at support@econdash.org.
We may suspend or end your access if you break these Terms, act illegally, or harm the Service or other users. We will try to warn you first unless immediate action is needed.
11. Changes to these Terms
We may update these Terms. If you have an account, we will email you about material changes at least 14 days before they apply. Using the Service after that means you accept the new Terms.
12. Governing law
These Terms are governed by the laws of the jurisdiction in which EconDash operates. We will first try to settle any dispute through good-faith negotiation, then through binding arbitration if needed.
