Understand what's prohibited under an Acceptable Use Policy in simple terms. Learn what we don't allow and how it applies to auto repair.
What is an Acceptable Use Policy in plain English
An Acceptable Use Policy (AUP) is a clear set of rules about how you can use a service. It defines permitted behavior and what crosses the line. This policy helps keep platforms safe and trustworthy for everyone.
What we don't allow under our AUP
Our Acceptable Use Policy prohibits actions that harm the platform or other users. This includes fraud, harassment, or illegal activities. Specific to auto repair, we ban sharing false diagnostic codes or fake repair histories.
Emissions-related restrictions explained
Our AUP strictly forbids tampering with emissions control systems. This means no disabling catalytic converters or altering OBD2 emissions sensors. Such actions violate environmental laws and our Acceptable Use Policy.
How our AUP applies to auto repair specialists
Specialists must follow our Acceptable Use Policy when using the platform. This includes providing accurate diagnostic reports and not misrepresenting repair needs. Violations can lead to immediate suspension from the service.
How we enforce the Acceptable Use Policy
We monitor platform activity for AUP violations. Suspicious behavior triggers automatic reviews. If a specialist shares false emissions data, we investigate immediately.
How to report an AUP violation
If you see prohibited behavior, report it through the platform. Our team reviews all claims within 24 hours. We take user reports seriously to maintain trust.
## FAQ
Can I keep driving with an AUP violation on my vehicle?
No, driving with unresolved emissions violations can cause further damage and legal issues. Stop using the service and consult a specialist.
Will an AUP violation affect my car's warranty?
Yes, unauthorized modifications often void warranties. Always check with a certified technician before altering emissions systems.
What happens if a specialist breaks our Acceptable Use Policy?
They face immediate suspension and possible permanent removal. We prioritize user safety over individual cases.
