Last updated Oct 20th, 2026.

Lamin Labs GmbH provides this website to Team and Enterprise customers in the EEA, the UK, and Switzerland. Lamin Labs Inc. provides this website to all other customers. See the imprint.

The lamin.ai website provides

  1. documentation for an open-source data management tool called LaminDB

  2. a web service called LaminHub to collaborate on LaminDB instances

Reading the public LaminDB documentation does not, by itself, mean you accept these Terms. By using our service (LaminHub) you accept these Terms with the contracting entity described below. If you disagree with these Terms, you must not use our Service.

If you have any questions about these Terms, contact imprint-de@lamin.ai when you contract with Lamin Labs GmbH, and imprint-us@lamin.ai when you contract with Lamin Labs Inc.

In using our service, we may process your personal data; more information about this can be found in the privacy policy.

Contracting party

You contract with one Lamin company. “We” and “us” mean that company.

  • On a Free plan or a Pro plan, you contract with Lamin Labs Inc., wherever you are.

  • On a Team plan or an Enterprise plan, you contract with Lamin Labs GmbH if the billing country on your order form is in the EEA, the UK, or Switzerland. Otherwise you contract with Lamin Labs Inc.

  • If your order form names a Lamin company, that naming decides who you contract with.

  • A Team or Enterprise subscription is formed only by a signed order or agreement. That agreement may amend these Terms. If they conflict, the signed agreement controls.

  • You do not contract with both companies. When you contract with Lamin Labs GmbH, Lamin Labs Inc. hosts the service for Lamin Labs GmbH.

If you are a consumer, you keep any mandatory rights of the country where you live. Nothing in these Terms affects your right to rely on those mandatory provisions.

Plans

Free plan

On a Free plan, you contract with Lamin Labs Inc. on these Terms. The Service does not include a Lamin-hosted database. The Service is provided as is.

Pro plan

On a Pro plan, you take a paid self-serve subscription with Lamin Labs Inc. We bill you through Stripe at the price and billing period shown at checkout. The subscription includes the hosted database, storage, and egress shown on the pricing page. Usage above those allowances is billed at the rates shown there.

If checkout offers a trial, the trial converts to a paid subscription unless you cancel before the trial ends. The subscription renews for the same period until you cancel it in the billing portal.

Team and Enterprise plans

These Terms do not, by themselves, create a Team or Enterprise subscription. The features, support, and any hosted or on-premises scope are whatever the signed agreement says. For an overview, see pricing.

Cancellation

Your Free plan starts when you sign up and agree to these Terms. Your access continues until the earlier of you cancelling, we end your right to access the Service, or you commit a material breach of these Terms.

To cancel a Free plan, email support@lamin.ai.

To cancel a Pro plan, use the billing portal. Cancellation stops the next renewal. You keep access through the period you have already paid for.

A Team or Enterprise plan ends as the signed agreement says.

Deletion of data. We keep your data only as long as we need it. Account data, and customer content in a Lamin-hosted location, is usually deleted 6 months after your account is deactivated, unless we must keep it longer for a legal, accounting, or regulatory requirement.

Survival of important terms. Rights under this Agreement which by their nature should survive termination do survive, including Indemnity, Liability, Governing Law, Notices, and Intellectual Property.

Performance of the Service

During your use of the Service, we will take steps to ensure that the Service functions as described.

What happens when the Service stops working as described? If you report to us a substantial error with the Service, we will seek to correct this within a reasonable amount of time – where legally permitted, this will be your sole remedy.

On a Free plan and on a Pro plan, the Service is provided as is. A signed Team or Enterprise agreement can add support or uptime commitments.

You must maintain a secure internet connection. Where you lose access to the Service and any User Content due to a disruption in your telecommunications or internet services, we will in no way be liable for any losses suffered.

Where our Service contains links to other sites, User Content, and resources provided by third parties, these are provided for your information only. They should not be interpreted as our approval of those linked websites or information you may obtain from them.

Data

Connected locations

On every plan, Lamin can serve as an access layer to storage locations and databases you control, including AWS S3 and RDS, Google Cloud Storage and SQL, Hugging Face, Zenodo, Cloudflare R2, and others.

You can reach that data at its original location. In the open-source LaminDB package you obtain it via artifact.path.

Lamin-hosted locations

On a Pro plan, and on a Team plan where the agreement includes it, we host the included database and storage for you. Lamin Labs Inc. performs that hosting. You keep ownership of that data, and you can export it through LaminDB and LaminHub.

Processing of personal data in hosted content

Where personal data is inside Lamin-hosted content, you are the controller and the contracting entity is the processor.

On a Pro plan, these Terms are the instructions: we host and display the content so you can use LaminHub, we use the subprocessors listed at trust.lamin.ai, and we delete the content on the schedule above.

On a Team or Enterprise plan, the signed data-processing terms control. Where Lamin Labs GmbH is the processor, it uses Lamin Labs Inc. as a subprocessor.

Intellectual property

We are the owner or the licensee of all intellectual property rights in the Service, including any modifications and improvements made by us or suggested by you. Copyright laws and treaties around the world protect those works. All such rights are reserved. We provide you with a worldwide, non-exclusive, non-transferable, non-sublicensable, revocable limited term licence for internal use only to use the Service in accordance with these Terms. Such a right to use the Service and any User Content on the Service will expire at the point your subscription ends or when we terminate the Agreement, whichever is sooner.

Data you transmit through the Service, including data stored in a Lamin-hosted location. All documents, messages, logos, images, files, and other information you transmit through our Service, or store in a Lamin-hosted location, will remain yours and you shall retain all rights, title, and interest in those.

Indemnity

Your indemnity to us. You agree to indemnify us, our affiliates, directors, officers, and employees against all loss, costs, damages, liabilities, and expenses that arise out of your breach of these Terms and/or use of the Service.

Liability

We do not limit any losses that we are not allowed to limit. We do not exclude or limit in any way our liability to you where it would be unlawful to do so, including death or personal injury caused by our negligence.

If you contract with Lamin Labs Inc., we exclude all implied conditions, warranties, representations, or other terms that may apply to our Service. We will not be liable to you for any loss or damage, whether in contract, tort (including negligence), breach of statutory duty, or otherwise, even if foreseeable, arising under or in connection with the use of, or inability to use, our Service, or use of or reliance on any content displayed on our Service. In particular, we will not be liable for loss of profits, sales, business, or revenue; business interruption; loss of anticipated savings; loss of business opportunity, goodwill, or reputation; or any indirect or consequential loss or damage. The Service is provided “as is”. We make no guarantee as to the quality of the Service or its suitability for your individual purposes.

If you contract with Lamin Labs GmbH, the same limits apply, except that nothing in these Terms excludes liability that German law does not allow to be excluded. That includes liability for intent, gross negligence, injury to life, body, or health, and liability under the Product Liability Act.

Severability. Each of the paragraphs of these terms operates separately. If any court or relevant authority decides that any of them are unlawful or unenforceable, the remaining paragraphs will remain in full force and effect.

Governing law

If you contract with Lamin Labs Inc., these Terms are governed by the laws of the State of Delaware, and you and we agree to the state or federal courts in Delaware.

If you contract with Lamin Labs GmbH, these Terms are governed by the laws of the Federal Republic of Germany, and you and we agree to the courts of Munich.

If you are a consumer, you may also benefit from any mandatory provisions of the law of the country in which you live. Nothing in these Terms affects your rights as a consumer to rely on such mandatory provisions.

Changes to these Terms

As our service grows and improves, we might have to make changes to these Terms. We will do this by posting the latest version on this page with a date confirming when it went live.
