Current Version: [2.0]
Effective Period: November 21, 2025

Thank you for using the AtomGit platform (hereinafter referred to as "this platform").

The AtomGit platform (hereinafter referred to as "this platform") is developed, operated, and managed by the Open Atoms Open Source Foundation (hereinafter referred to as "the original operator"). The Open Atoms Open Source Foundation is a non-profit independent legal entity registered with the Ministry of Civil Affairs, dedicated to the public welfare of the open source industry. To further enhance your user experience, this platform has undergone significant upgrades, and the operator of the AtomGit platform will change from [Open Atoms Open Source Foundation] (Address: Building 2201, 22nd Floor, No. 8 Building, Ke Gu Yi Street, Beijing Economic and Technological Development Zone, Beijing) to [Chongqing Innovation Open Source Technology Co., Ltd.] (hereinafter referred to as "us" or "new operator", Address: Room 5-1#, Attached 23-02-087, Hua Yi Road, Qixinggang Street, Yuzhong District, Chongqing).

This platform is an open platform for the public, primarily providing code hosting and open source project management services. It is committed to building a healthy open source ecosystem and seeking more abundant open source resource sharing and exchange through open governance.

We specifically remind you that before you register, log in, and use this platform, please read the "AtomGit User Service Terms" (hereinafter referred to as "this agreement") in full and carefully, fully understand the content of each clause of this agreement, especially the clauses regarding restrictions or exemptions of liability, platform integration and account unification. Clauses restricting or exempting liability may be highlighted in bold or other prominent forms.

If you do not accept the content of this agreement, you can choose to exit or stop using the service of this platform by closing the web page, canceling the account, etc.

For the needs of service function development and corresponding laws and regulations, we may periodically modify this agreement. Once this agreement is modified, we will inform you through pop-ups, announcements, etc. If you do not agree with the revised content of the agreement, please stop using the service of this platform immediately. If you continue to use the service of this platform, it will be deemed that you agree to the revised content of the agreement.

Please promise that when you use this platform, you have the civil capacity required by Chinese law corresponding to your behavior. If you are a person with limited civil capacity or without civil capacity, please read this agreement under the guidance of your legal guardian and decide whether to accept the content of this agreement. If you register, log in, and use the relevant services of this platform on behalf of an institution rather than yourself, you will be deemed to have obtained sufficient authorization to represent the institution and agree to this agreement.

I. Service Content and Related Definitions

In this agreement, "service" refers to the following services provided by the AtomGit platform [https://atomgit.com]: account management, creation and use of code projects, creation and use of organizations and projects, browsing of open source teams and open source projects, cross-platform unified account interoperability, data synchronization, and related technical and other support services. "User" and "you" refer to the users of this platform;

In this agreement, "content" refers to the content provided or displayed through this platform, including but not limited to code, text, data, images, photos, graphics, software, applications, program packages, designs, and other materials and information. "Content" also includes services. "User-generated content" is content created or uploaded by users. "Your content" is content you create or own.

II. Account Management

1. Account Registration

Each user must provide a valid phone number, email address, username, and nickname to create their own account to ensure the security of the account, and may also need to set a password. If you cannot provide the aforementioned personal information, you can only use this platform as a guest. If you use this platform as a guest, you can only browse and search on this platform, but you cannot upload or download any code, project, or other content on this platform, or use the comment function.

2. Account Usage and Security

For the use of the account, the following rules must be followed:

(1) Your account can only be used by you, and multiple people are not allowed to share one account.

(2) You are responsible for maintaining the security of your account and password. We will not be responsible for any loss or damage caused by your failure to comply with this security protection obligation. If you become aware of any unauthorized use or access through your account, including any unauthorized use of your password or account, please contact us immediately.

3. Account Restrictions and Cancellation

(1) If you violate this agreement or other behavioral guidelines of this platform, or based on our judgment that your behavior may be detrimental to this platform or may constitute other illegal or improper behavior, we have the right to delete content or freeze, suspend, or close the account, and this measure applies simultaneously to this platform and GitCode.

(2) When you apply to cancel your account on this platform, we will delete all your personal information and [project] data on both this platform and GitCode. After cancellation, it cannot be recovered, so you should operate with caution.

4. Platform Integration and Unified Accounts

To provide you with a more unified and convenient open source service experience, we plan to integrate the service and account system of this platform with GitCode.

(1) Integration Content: After the integration, this platform and GitCode will achieve unified accounts. You can log in to this platform and GitCode with one account of this platform. To achieve this purpose, after your separate consent, we may need to transfer your account information on this platform [see the updated "AtomGit Privacy Policy"], the code repositories you created on this platform, technical issues (Issues), pull requests (Pull Requests), documents, comments, code review data, and other user-generated content to GitCode, and also possibly transfer your GitCode account information [see the updated "GitCode Privacy Policy"], the code repositories you created on GitCode, technical issues (Issues), pull requests (Pull Requests), documents, comments, code review data, and other user-generated content to this platform. Any operation you perform on either platform (such as modifying information, adjusting project permissions) will be synchronized to the other platform.

(2) Integration Rules: If the system detects that you have an account on both this platform and GitCode using the same phone number/email, to ensure account uniqueness, after your consent, we will merge the two accounts according to the rules we explicitly show during the integration process. Also, when your usernames on the two platforms are inconsistent, we will use your username on this platform. Merging accounts may be an irreversible action, so please read the relevant rules carefully before agreeing.

(3) Your Rights: You have the right to know the specific rules of the integration and decide whether to agree to the account integration on your own. If you disagree with the integration, you can still continue to use the existing services of this platform.

(4) You can withdraw your consent for data synchronization through [Personal Settings - Data Permissions - Cross-platform Synchronization Authorization]. After withdrawal, the two platforms will stop data synchronization. The already synchronized data will remain but will no longer be updated. You need to manage the accounts and data of the two platforms separately, and the unified account function will become invalid.

III. Project Management

1. Creating a New Project

You can create a new project on this platform, enter the project name, project path, and project description, and set the visibility level of the project (public project or private project). If you choose to make the project public when creating it, other users of this platform can access and obtain, use the code you upload in the code repository based on the open source license agreement. If you set it as a private project, only those with the corresponding project permissions can access, obtain, or use the content in the project.

When creating a project, you can choose to add an initialized README file (including suggested project descriptions, installation guides, usage examples, contribution guidelines, etc.), .gitignore files, and have the right to upload the open source license agreement file of the project or select an existing open source license agreement template set by this platform. This platform does not make any guarantees regarding the aforementioned open source license agreement content and other information, and shall not bear any responsibility for losses caused by the use of open source license agreement content or other related information.

2. Importing Projects

You can import GIT projects (including private projects) on this platform. To complete the import of these projects, you need to provide the project URL, enter the project name and project path, and you can choose to fill in the project description. For initial import settings, we default to importing only the default branch of the source project. If you want to import all branches, check "Import All Branches".

You can set the visibility level of the imported project (public project or private project). If you choose a public project, you should ensure that the content of the public project does not violate any national laws and regulations, does not infringe on the copyright or other rights of any unit or individual, and you have the right to publish the content of the project. If the content of the public imported project involves referencing others' works or achievements, you should ensure that the referenced content is legal, and you should annotate the referenced content. If you violate the above provisions, we have the right to delete your public project and will not bear any responsibility.

3. Creating an Organization

You can create an organization on this platform or choose to join an organization established by another user.

To create an organization, you need to enter the organization name, set the organization URL, and you can upload the organization's logo. Additionally, you have the right to choose to set the organization as public or private.

As an administrator of the newly created organization, your management rights include setting and modifying the organization name, organization introduction, organization logo and URL, email, official website, location, visibility (public or private), managing different items in the organization, and enabling organization discussions.

Administrators can manage organization members, and can also invite other users of this platform to join the organization by entering a username or email address, and set the user's role as viewer, developer, or administrator. They also have the right to approve other users' requests to join the organization. As a developer in an organization created by someone else, you can upload and download code in different projects within the organization. As a viewer in an organization created by someone else, you can only view and download the public projects and code in the organization.

This platform supports the establishment of an independent community that is self-controlled by the organization administrator. Administrators can increase the growth and activity of the organization by setting content and activities within the community, thus enhancing the influence of the project and the organization.

4. Resource Access Methods

You can log in to browse the information you have permission to access on this platform by using your registered username and password, or your phone number and verification code. At the same time, you can also use your registered username and password, or your phone number and verification code, or add an SSH public key on this platform (SSH protocol) to upload or download projects you have access to.

5. Deleting Projects

You can delete the content of the project you have management authority over on this platform. If data loss occurs due to errors made by you or other users, or other circumstances not attributable to us, we will not bear any responsibility.

IV. Content Management

7. Granting License to Other Users

Any content you publicly release, including issues, comments, and contributions to other users' projects, is accessible to others. Setting your project to be publicly visible means you agree to allow others to view and "fork" your project (which means others can independently copy and download the content of your project). If you set your project to be publicly visible, it means you grant each user a non-exclusive, global license to copy, use, display, and execute your content through the AtomGit service. You can also grant additional rights through other licensing methods.
