You may not create accounts for others, use bots to create accounts, or share your account.

• Attempt to bypass, exploit, or disrupt the platform or its security
• Abuse the code runner (e.g. mining, denial-of-service attacks, network scanning)
• Use the Service to harass, spam, or harm others

Interactive code steps send your code to the Piston API (emkc.org), an open-source code execution API. Do not submit secret keys, passwords, or personal information in code you run.

Using the code runner to attempt denial-of-service attacks, cryptocurrency mining, or network intrusion is strictly prohibited and may result in immediate account termination and reporting to relevant authorities.

When you click “Share” in the Playground, your code is stored on our servers and assigned a public share link. Anyone with the link can view your snippet. Do not share code containing secrets, personal data, or malicious content.

You retain ownership of code you write. By sharing a snippet you grant us a non-exclusive licence to store and serve it. We may delete snippets that violate these Terms or after extended periods of inactivity.
