Policies

Backoff Strategy
Clients should implement exponential backoff with jitter when 429 or 503 responses are returned and honor any Retry-After header.
Regional Independence
Rate limits are tracked per regional host (us, eu, kr, tw). Calls to different regions do not share quota.
OAuth Token Reuse
Client credentials access tokens are valid for ~24 hours and should be cached rather than re-issued per request.
