Acceptable Use Policy

This Acceptable Use Policy applies to the Services as defined in the Aphex Platform Terms and Conditions. In the event of any inconsistency between this Acceptable Use Policy and the terms of the Aphex Platform Terms and Conditions, the terms of the Aphex Platform Terms and Conditions take priority.

Unless the context requires otherwise, defined terms in the Aphex Platform Terms and Conditions have the same meaning in this Acceptable Use Policy.

To keep the Services running safely and smoothly, we need our users to agree not to misuse them. Specifically, you agree not to:

(a) probe, scan, or test the vulnerability of any system or network used with the Services;

(b) tamper with, reverse engineer or hack the Services, circumvent any security or authentication measures of the Services or attempt to gain unauthorized access to the Services (or any portion thereof) or related systems, networks or data;

(c) modify or disable the Services or use the Services in any manner that interferes with or disrupts the integrity or performance of the Services or related systems, network or data;

(d) access or search the Services by any means other than our publicly supported interfaces, or copy, distribute, or disclose any part of the Service in any medium, including without limitation by any automated or non-automated "scraping";

(e) overwhelm or attempt to overwhelm our infrastructure by imposing an unreasonably large load on the Services that consume extraordinary resources, such as by: (i) using "robots," "spiders," "offline readers" or other automated systems to send more request messages to our servers than a human could reasonably send in the same period of time using a normal browser; or (ii) going far beyond the use parameters for any given Service as described in its corresponding documentation;

(f) solicit any users of our Services for commercial purposes;

(g) misrepresent yourself (or any other user) or disguise the origin of any data, content or other information you submit (including by "spoofing", "phishing", manipulating headers or other identifiers, impersonating anyone else, or falsely implying any sponsorship or association with us or any third party) or access the Services via another user's account without their permission;

(h) use the Services for any illegal purpose or in violation of any laws (including without limitation data, privacy and export control laws);

(i) use the Services to violate the privacy of others, or to collect or gather other users' personal information (including account information) from our Services;

(j) submit (or post, upload, share or otherwise provide) data, content or other information that (i) infringes our or a third party's intellectual property, privacy or other rights or that you don't have the right to submit (including confidential or personal information you are not authorized to disclose); (ii) that is deceptive, fraudulent, illegal, obscene, defamatory, libelous, threatening, harmful to minors, pornographic, indecent, harassing, hateful, religiously, racially or ethnically offensive, that encourages illegal or tortious conduct or that is otherwise inappropriate in our reasonable opinion; (iii) contains viruses, bots, worms, scripting exploits or other similar materials; or (iv) that could otherwise cause damage to us or any third party;

(k) promote or advertise products or services other than your own without appropriate authorisation;

(l) use meta tags or any other "hidden text" including our or our suppliers' product names or trademarks;

(m) permit or encourage anyone else to commit any of the actions above; and

(n) otherwise perform or assist any unauthorised act or action that may cause any harm or disrepute to our brand or reputation.

Without affecting any other remedies available to us, we may, without recourse, permanently or temporarily terminate or suspend your account or access to the Services without notice or liability if we (in our sole discretion) determine that you have violated this Acceptable Use Policy.
