Terms of Service

Effective date: October 1, 2026

These Terms of Service ("Terms") govern your use of GudTrack, including the website at gudtrack.com and the API at api.gudtrack.com (the "Service"), operated by GudTrack ("we", "us"). By using the Service you agree to these Terms.

1. The Service

GudTrack lets you look up the status of a U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) case using a receipt number. Status information is obtained from the official USCIS Case Status API and is presented as provided by USCIS.

2. No affiliation and no legal advice

GudTrack is an independent service. It is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or acting on behalf of USCIS, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, or any government agency. The Service does not provide legal advice and is not a substitute for advice from a qualified immigration attorney or accredited representative. The official record of your case is maintained by USCIS.

3. Acceptable use

You agree that you will:

• Only look up cases that belong to you or that you are authorized to follow, such as a client's case as their representative.
• Not use automated tools to send high volumes of requests, scrape the Service, or attempt to circumvent rate limits.
• Not interfere with the Service, attempt to access it without authorization, or use it for any unlawful purpose.

We may limit, suspend, or block access that violates these Terms or threatens the Service or the USCIS API.

4. Availability and accuracy

The Service depends on the USCIS Case Status API, which may be unavailable, delayed, or rate-limited. We do not guarantee that the Service will be uninterrupted or that the information shown is complete, current, or error-free. Always rely on official USCIS notices for decisions about your case.

5. Privacy

Our handling of information is described in the Privacy Policy, which is part of these Terms.

6. Intellectual property

The GudTrack name, website design, and software are owned by us. Case status content is provided by USCIS. You may use the Service for personal or professional case tracking but may not copy or resell the Service itself.

7. Disclaimer of warranties

The Service is provided "as is" and "as available", without warranties of any kind, express or implied, including warranties of merchantability, fitness for a particular purpose, and non-infringement.

8. Limitation of liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law, we will not be liable for any indirect, incidental, special, consequential, or punitive damages, or for any loss arising from reliance on information shown by the Service, including missed deadlines or decisions made about an immigration case.

9. Changes

We may update these Terms from time to time. Updated Terms will be posted on this page with a new effective date. Continued use of the Service after changes take effect means you accept the updated Terms.

10. Governing law

These Terms are governed by the laws of the United States and the state in which GudTrack is organized, without regard to conflict-of-law rules.
