Github Terms Github Terms For Additional Products And Features (GitHub)

Open Legal LibraryUpdated 26 Oct 2025

The GitHub Terms for Additional Products and Features supplement GitHub’s standard agreements by setting specific rules for using services like Actions, Codespaces, Advanced Security, npm, Packages, Pages, and GitHub Copilot. These terms ensure compliance, clarify billing and usage limits, and protect both users and GitHub, making them a trusted extension of GitHub’s official contractual framework under Microsoft’s governance.

[company name] Terms for Additional Products and Features

Version Effective Date: [effective date]

When you use [company name], you may be given access to lots of additional products and features ("Additional Products and Features"). Because many of the Additional Products and Features offer different functionality, your Agreement with us (the "Agreement") includes the specific terms for that product or feature combined with your main agreement — the [company name] Terms of Service or [company name] Customer Agreement, or the [company name] Corporate Terms of Service or other legacy [company name] contract, or a [agreement name]. Below, we've listed those products and features, along with the corresponding additional terms that apply to your use of them.

By using the Additional Products and Features, you also agree to the applicable [company name] Terms for Additional Products and Features listed below. A violation of these [company name] Terms for Additional Products and Features is a violation of the Agreement. Capitalized terms not defined here have the meaning given in the Agreement.

For Enterprise users

[company name] Enterprise Cloud users may have access to the following Additional Products and Features: [list of products and features].

[company name] Enterprise Server users may have access to the following Additional Products and Features: [list of other products and features].

Actions

[company name] Actions enables you to create custom software development lifecycle workflows directly in your [company name] repository. Actions is billed on a usage basis. The Actions documentation includes details, including compute and storage quantities (depending on your Account plan), and how to monitor your Actions minutes usage and set usage limits.

Actions and any elements of the Actions product or service may not be used in violation of the Agreement, the [company name] Acceptable Use Policies, or the [company name] Actions service limitations set forth in the Actions documentation. Additionally, regardless of whether an Action is using self-hosted runners, Actions should not be used for:

Cryptomining;

Disrupting, gaining, or attempting to gain unauthorized access to, any service, device, data, account, or network (other than those authorized by the [company name] Bug Bounty program);

The provision of a stand-alone or integrated application or service offering the Actions product or service, or any elements of the Actions product or service, for commercial purposes;

Any activity that places a burden on our servers, where that burden is disproportionate to the benefits provided to users (for example, don't use Actions as a content delivery network or as part of a serverless application, but a low benefit Action could be ok if it’s also low burden); or

If using [company name]-hosted runners, any other activity unrelated to the production, testing, deployment, or publication of the software project associated with the repository where [company name] Actions are used.
