   This Acceptable Use Policy ("AUP") describes activities that are prohibited on KiheiRoad. It supplements the Terms of Service. Violations may result in immediate account suspension, termination, forfeiture of any unpaid rev-share or refunds, and reporting to law enforcement or regulatory authorities where applicable. The AUP applies to all users — both followers and listed traders.

3. // 03

   Reporting violations

   If you become aware of any violation of this AUP, please report it through the contact form on the landing page with as much detail as possible. We review all reports and act according to severity. Reports made in bad faith — knowingly false reports intended to harm another user or trader — are themselves AUP violations and may result in account action against the reporter.

   Consequences of violation

   We respond to AUP violations on a spectrum based on severity, intent, and impact: (a) WARNING — for minor or first-time issues; (b) FEATURE RESTRICTION — temporary limitation of specific functions; (c) ACCOUNT SUSPENSION — temporary loss of access; (d) ACCOUNT TERMINATION — permanent loss of access, forfeiture of any unsettled fees or rev-share; (e) LEGAL ACTION — civil suit for damages or referral to law enforcement for criminal conduct. We may publish a transparency report describing enforcement statistics in aggregate, without identifying specific users.
