Terms of Service

Acceptance of Terms

By accessing and using CodonTable, you accept and agree to be bound by the terms and provisions of this agreement.

Service Description

CodonTable provides bioinformatics tools and resources for genetic code analysis, sequence translation, educational purposes, and a curated directory of biotechnology software.

Commercial Terms & Fees

Access to public molecular biology tools and genetic code resources on CodonTable is free of charge. Optional commercial services, such as software directory indexing and featured listings, are charged according to the rates published on our Pricing page (/pricing) at the time of purchase. All fees are one-time payments for the agreed listing services; we do not operate recurring subscription models or automatic renewal charges (No Auto-Renewal).

Payment Processing

Payments on CodonTable are securely processed by our authorized payment processor, Waffo Pancake, in accordance with PCI-DSS Level 1 security standards. Sensitive payment credentials and card details are processed directly by Waffo Pancake and are never stored on CodonTable servers. Applicable sales taxes or VAT are calculated and charged at checkout where required by law.

Refund & Cancellation Policy

Due to the digital nature of software directory listings, services are generally non-refundable once approved and published. However, if a submitted tool is not approved during editorial review, a 100% full refund will be automatically issued to your original payment method within 3 business days. Erroneous or duplicate charges will also be refunded in full upon verification. To request assistance or a refund, please contact us at contact@codontable.org with your order details. Because all paid plans are strictly one-time purchases with zero recurring billing, there are no ongoing subscriptions to cancel.
