Llama API terms: explicit resale/aggregator ban, API key transfer limit, fees now apply to all Services
The Llama API terms now say the Services are intended for commercial use unless Meta offers them for personal use. They explicitly bar selling or transferring API keys and reselling access through aggregators, gateways or proxies. The fee and tax clause now covers all Services instead of only Standard Services, and payment may go through a Meta Affiliate depending on country. The ban on training competing AI models, the Inputs responsibility and the rest of the prohibited-use list were already in the old terms.
Taken from you
- Cannot sell or transfer your Meta Model API key to third parties without written permission (sharing was already barred).
- Resale and access through model aggregators, API gateways or proxies are now explicitly banned (granting third parties access was already restricted generally).
- Responsible for all Services Fees and applicable transaction taxes; may be invoiced and contract with a Meta Affiliate depending on country
