Vulnerability assessment, penetration testing and scanning features must only be run against systems and networks that you own or for which you hold explicit, documented authorisation. You must observe the Rules of Engagement presented in the Platform, respect scope and allow-lists, and never scan third-party infrastructure without permission. Unauthorised scanning may constitute a criminal offence.

• Reselling or providing the Platform to third parties without authorisation.

4. Fair use

Automated or high-volume usage must stay within documented limits. We may throttle or suspend usage that threatens Platform stability or other customers.

5. Enforcement

We may investigate suspected violations and suspend or terminate access where necessary to protect the Platform, our customers or third parties.
