Developer Terms of Use
Introduction
Welcome to the WorkflowMax by BlueRock developer platform! Here's a quick and easy guide to what you need to know when using our developer portal. We know that legal terms can be hard going, so we’ve cut out as much of the legal jargon as possible. These developer terms of use (Developer Terms) set out both our rights and obligations in relation to the use of the developer portal and your agreement to them is necessary for us to get you started on your way.
These are your legal rights and obligations, so please read everything. If you use our developer platform, we’ll assume that you agree to our terms.
If you still have questions or comments after you’ve read these terms, please go to the developer portal to get in touch. We’d love to help.

How can I use the developer platform?
- Right to use the developer platform: Once you’ve registered as a WorkflowMax developer, we’ll grant you the right to use the developer platform to develop and connect your apps with our services. However, we might revoke, terminate or restrict that right in line with these terms, or any other terms that might apply to you.

What do I need to do to protect user data?
- When you make your apps available to users, those users may enter or upload their data, content or information (user data) into your Access to user data for you or your app may be provided by us or by a user, depending on how you use the developer platform. User data includes data that is aggregated across multiple users. You must only use user data in accordance with your terms, the terms set out here, and all applicable laws. When you connect or integrate your app, you must ensure that all necessary user consents and permissions for use of any user data have been obtained. Your terms should also clearly describe how and why you collect, store, use and share any user data.
- Sometimes, you might want to use a third party (like a subcontractor or a third party development company) to help you connect to the developer platform - we call them collaborators. After you’ve agreed to these terms, you can allow your collaborators to access your app and the developer platform by adding them as a collaborator via the developer portal. If you add a collaborator, you’re responsible for them. You’ll need to make sure they comply with these terms and only pass through user data to you. On the other hand, if you are the collaborator, it is your responsibility to make sure the developer you’re acting on behalf of has seen and accepted these terms before you provide any user data to them (and these terms continue to apply to you regardless).
- We’ve invested in technical, physical and administrative safeguards to do our part to help keep user data safe and When you access the developer platform, you have an important role to play to protect the privacy of user data.

You should document your security measures in writing as we may ask to see them. If you spot a security issue that affects your app, such as any unauthorised access to user data, you must immediately let us know the details at support@workflowmax2.com (including a description of the incident as well as your action plan to contain and mitigate it) and use your best efforts to resolve it. While we’ll help you with security issues where we reasonably believe we can, it’s your responsibility to investigate what went wrong and to notify affected users and any regulatory authorities who need to know about it. Where you notify any users or third parties, you can’t mention us unless we say in writing that’s okay or, in the case of regulatory authorities, required by law.
- When we receive any user data through your app, our terms of use, privacy notice and data processing terms (where applicable) will apply to our use of that user data from the time we receive it, and your terms will no longer apply (including any restrictions on WorkflowMax processing user data).
What about your data and confidential information?
- We may collect certain data about your use of the developer platform, such as your API use, your app metadata, and the user accounts you access. We can use this data, and any feedback you provide to us, without restriction. Our privacy policy sets out in detail how we process your own personal data, like your name and email address.
