# Orbit terms of use

Effective November 4, 2026. Orbit is provided by Kyle is Based as an independent local desktop tool for personal Codex account usage tracking.

## Permitted use

You may install and use Orbit to track your own authorized account. Do not use it to access another person's account, bypass usage limits, or circumvent authentication or platform protections. Your use of Codex, ChatGPT, OpenAI and GitHub remains subject to those services' applicable terms.

## Operation and limitations

Orbit requires compatible local software and a signed-in account that returns usage limits. It records observations only while it is running. Calculated targets and hourly rates are guidance; they do not guarantee task capacity, uninterrupted access, or a particular reset outcome. Verify important account information with the account provider.

Orbit does not promise continuous service, compatibility with every operating system or future provider change, data recovery, or a support response time. Keep backups if the local history is important to you. The plugin does not include phone or cloud synchronization.

## Costs and data

This release does not charge a Orbit fee or create a paid subscription. Any costs or subscription requirements of third-party services are separate. See the [privacy policy](PRIVACY.md) for how local data is processed, retained and removed.

## Updates and stopping use

Software and documentation may be updated. You can stop tracking at any time by asking **Stop Orbit**, and you can uninstall the plugin. Remove its saved local data separately if desired. The terms accompanying a later release may change; review them before using that release.

Orbit is not affiliated with or endorsed by OpenAI. Nothing in these terms removes rights that cannot be excluded under applicable law. Questions can be raised through [support](SUPPORT.md).
