3. Complaints and verification of violations

We may receive complaints from users, copyright holders, government agencies, infrastructure partners, payment providers, hosting providers, anti-virus and anti-phishing systems, and may also detect violations ourselves.

When checking we may take into account:

• contents of the moolt page and individual page elements;
• final addresses of links, chains of redirections and contents of external resources;
• history of changes to the page, account, domains, links and settings;
• complaints, documents, confirmations of rights, technical signals and other available evidence;
• risk of harm to users, third parties, moolt infrastructure and trust in the service.

We are not required to provide prior notice to a user before taking immediate action if we believe that content or behavior may be illegal, harmful, fraudulent, harmful to users, in violation of the rights of third parties, or poses a risk to infrastructure.

4. Possible measures

If we believe that a user, page, link, card, photo, widget, domain or other material violates these rules, we may take one or more actions:

• hide, restrict, deindex or remove specific content;
• disable an individual link, button, card, widget, form, image, domain or page;
• show a warning to users before clicking on a link;
• temporarily or permanently block a public page;
• temporarily or permanently limit account functions;
• suspend, block or delete an account;
• cancel publication of the page until the violation is eliminated;
• refuse to restore content, page or account in case of repeated or serious violations;
• report violations to copyright holders, infrastructure partners, payment providers, hosting providers, domain registrars, competent authorities or other persons when required or appropriate;
• take other measures necessary to protect users, third parties, moolt and the service infrastructure.

The choice of action depends on the nature of the violation, risk of harm, recurrence, intentionality, extent of distribution, user response and applicable requirements.

5. Preservation of evidence

To investigate complaints, protect users, enforce policies, prevent abuse, and comply with legal duties, we may retain evidence of possible violations, including:

• copies of pages, links, cards, images, widgets, descriptions and settings;
• URLs, end addresses, redirects, domains, timestamps and technical logs;
• data on complaints, moderation decisions, communication with the user and measures taken;
• other information necessary for investigation, prevention of repeated violations, protection of rights and interaction with authorized persons.

We retain such material to the extent and for the period we deem necessary for those purposes, unless longer retention is required by law or to protect legitimate interests.

6. Repeated and serious violations

Repeated violations, attempts to bypass moderation decisions, use of moolt for fraud, phishing, malicious links, sexual exploitation, security threats or other high-risk activity may result in permanent suspension of the account and associated pages without the possibility of recovery.

We may link accounts, pages, domains, devices, payment information, technical features and other signals with each other if necessary to identify repeat violations, bypass blocking or coordinated abuse.

7. Moderation mistakes and appeals

If you believe that content, a page, or an account have been restricted incorrectly, you can contact moolt support and provide information that helps verify the solution: a link to the page, a description of the situation, proof of rights, documents, permissions, or other relevant information.

We will consider your request within a reasonable time. Restoration of content, page or account is not guaranteed and depends on the results of the review, applicable regulations, legal requirements and the risk to users and the service.

8. Rule changes

We may update these Community and Acceptable Use Guidelines to reflect changes to the service, risks, laws, partner requirements, and security practices. The new version applies from the date of publication unless otherwise stated.

By continuing to use moolt after the rules are updated, you agree to the new edition.
